Chapter 225: Water Transfer
Compared with the rivers in other regions, the Black Jade River is not too wide, and the widest place is only about 1,000 meters. The river is also shallow, and in some places it has even dried up, forming pools of water. But the river's water flows eastward all year round, because the amount of rainfall upstream is related to many factors, such as climate change affecting the melting of snow-capped mountains.
The scorching heat and the reduction of rainfall have exposed a large area of the riverbed, and the whole riverbed is full of pebbles of all sizes, and few humans have set foot in it, maintaining the unchanging landform of the ancient times, and being in it makes people feel a sense of vicissitudes.
After landing, for fear of attracting attention, the huge crested mountain eagle was temporarily taken into the war beast space by Rong Yuanhang.
"Yuanhang, do you want to take a bath?" Looking at the crystal clear flowing water, Long Yurou suddenly felt itchy all over her body, she hadn't taken a shower for a few days.
Rong Yuanhang scratched his scalp, the surrounding environment, except for the pebbles on the riverbed, there was nothing to cover at all, and both sides of the river bank were empty Gobi Desert. In addition, it was daylight, and the two women wanted to take a bath here, he felt a little awkward, and in order to avoid suspicion, he said: "I'll go upstream, you guys wash here." β
Long Yurou and Xiao Xue glanced at each other and said, "Let's wash together, it's not to take off your clothes, we martial arts practitioners don't pay so much attention to it." Okay, let's go, Xiao Xue, let's leave him alone......"
Long Yurou was very manly and bold, and as she spoke, she took Xiao Xue's hand and waded into the river.
"I'm going to go shopping...... Rong Yuanhang is still very embarrassed, it will be very inconvenient for women to take a shower by themselves A big man is here, and one of them is also his mother-in-law.
So he walked leisurely and leisurely along the riverbed upstream without looking back. The pebbles under your feet make a crisp sound of "click, click......
"Huh?" Rong Yuanhang inadvertently looked down, picked up a snow-white stone to observe carefully, and said to himself: "This ...... It can't be jade, right? β
The fist-sized pebble in front of me is white and smooth, like clotted fat, and the luster of the slippery surface has a greasy feeling - this is clearly a piece of fine fat sheep white jade!
"Damn, such a piece of fat sheep white jade can be sold for at least a million!" Rong Yuanhang was amazed. Then he was shocked to find that the entire riverbed was almost entirely made of such delicate 'stones'! There are many colors such as dark green, green, light green, red, yellow, black, etc.
"It'sβit's not all jade, is it?" He picked up a few more pieces of seed jade and grabbed both hands. If it's all this jade. Then its value is amazing, at this time, he is actually not confident, and he wants to ask Long Yurou and Xiao Xue for their opinions with the jade in his hand.
The river is shallow, less than one meter and two three meters deep. Long Yurou and Xiao Xue were soaked in the water, they were half-squatting, only showing their two heads, seeing Rong Yuanhang coming straight over, Xiao Xue panicked for no reason. My heart was beating fast.
Long Yurou looked at him straight and asked, "Yuanhang, what's wrong, what are you holding in your hand?" β
"Dragon Protector, look at it, is this jade?" Rong Yuanhang fell into the water, approached the two of them, and handed over the seed jade in his hand.
"I'll see." Long Yurou stood up, her tall figure was exposed, her wet clothes were close to her skin, and the outline of her huge and full breasts was extremely clear. Rong Yuanhang glanced at it and hurriedly looked away. Unconsciously moved to Xiao Xue's face......
found that Xiao Xue's beautiful face and cheeks were rosy, and she actually had a look of shame, and she couldn't help but feel strange. He didn't know that Xiao Xue was stripping naked at this time, and planned to wash the clothes before putting them on. So although her entire body was soaked in water, there was nothing visible on the surface, but from the neck down, it was vacuum.
"This is jade, fat sheep white jade, good quality." Long Rouyu said.
"Mother-in-law, look. I just picked up such a big piece. Rong Yuanhang ostentatiously handed over a palm-sized piece of fat sheep white jade to her.
"Yes, yes?" Xiao Xue said a little nervously, and unconsciously reached out to take it, but she couldn't hold it steadily. With a "poof" sound, he fell into the water......
"Be careful! Millions! Rong Yuanhang's reaction was extremely fast, his speed was extremely fast, and he stretched out his hands and leaned over to the bottom of the water to catch ......
"Ahh Xiao Xue exclaimed, Rong Yuanhang's fast hands didn't know if it was intentional, but he touched a place that shouldn't be touched.
The tentacles are soft and flexible. Rong Yuanhang was stunned and stopped on the spot.
Long Yurou looked dumb and laughed, and scolded with a smile: "You guy is frizzy, but it's true, your mother-in-law has no clothes." β
"Hehe," Rong Yuanhang laughed dryly, his face flushed, and said, "I'll go over there to find out if there are any ......" didn't dare to look at Xiao Xue, and quickly walked to the shore.
As a result, he really found a lot of high-quality jade, and some of the white jade naturally exposed in the riverbed even reached more than 20 kilograms, and it was completely the best white jade with mutton fat!
It didn't take long for a pile of seed jade stones like a hill to pile up in front of me. This is like picking up money, every piece of inspection is worth a lot of money to sell in modern times, although Rong Yuanhang is not short of money, but in the face of such a lot of jade, it is simply a tyrannical thing not to pick up.
At this time, Long Yurou and Xiao Xue had already finished taking a bath, and they had dried the wet clothes on their bodies. When they walked ashore, Long Yurou asked strangely, "Yuanhang, what are you doing with so many jade?" This thing is not worth much, especially these scattered seed jade, the size is too small, it can't be made into a jade box, it is not very useful, one or two silver can buy ten catties. β
Due to the abundant production of yuan crystals here, the demand for jade is also very large. Because Yuanjing needs to use a jade box to load it so that the aura does not leak, but it is a box made of large pieces of jade, and such a small jade is of little use, and can only be used as decorations.
The so-called scarcity is expensive, but because of the flood of jade production, the jade here is not worth anything at all.
"You don't understand, I like this kind of jade." Rong Yuanhang can only say this.
"You like these jades?" Xiao Xue's face had returned to normal and was no longer red.
"yes, yes." Rong Yuanhang nodded and replied.
"I'll help you find it." Xiao Xue immediately took action and turned around to look for jade. Rong Yuanhang said: "Mother-in-law, don't use it for the time being, I can't fit it here, and I can't bring it back." β
"Oh......" Xiao Xue agreed obediently, at this time she was more like a little girl, and her demeanor was as if Rong Yuanhang was an elder.
These jade stones are scattered and fragmented, and it is difficult to take them all away without the tools at hand. Rong Yuanhang thought that this was not a solution, so he avoided the gaze of Xiao Xue and Long Yurou, and secretly summoned the plane gate in his palm, only letting it retain the size of one foot. Quickly threw the jade into it, and the coordinates of the main plane were set in the warehouse of the villa, so throwing the jade over was equivalent to throwing it into the warehouse.
In order not to arouse their doubts, Rong Yuanhang only kept a small part of it that was easy to take away. Then take these jade stones and ride back on the crown mountain eagle again.
After not flying long in the sky, he suddenly heard the roar of a beast in the woods on the ground, Long Yurou said: "Yuanhang, there is a situation below, someone has encountered a fierce beast, maybe it is our beast hunting team, let's go and take a look." β
"Okay." Rong Yuanhang had this intention, patting the back of the giant eagle, and the crowned mountain eagle "croakedββ! A loud cry came out, and this bird was very human. But he knew that Rong Yuanhang would be ready to participate in the war at any time. With a slight twist of wings, it swooped down into the forest like a passenger plane crashed......
β¦β¦
At this time, in the not-so-dense woods, twenty-seven large men dressed in soap blue were confronting the six-headed ugly Spinosaurus.
These Spinosaurs were generally 16 or 7 meters long, and the largest of them was more than 20 meters. Their backs bulged with a row of sail-like muscles, their hind limbs unusually thick, and their habitually open mouths of blood showed two rows of white teeth. His mouth was dripping with slimy drooping fluid, and his eyes shone with a vicious glow.
Six gigantic Spinosaurs. Divided into six directions, it actually surrounded twenty-seven people inside. These people are the members of the beast hunting team in the Wang family's mine, and the team leader Hu Dacun has a martial arts beginner cultivation, and at this time, he is holding a long battle knife in his hand, and his mood is full of tension.
If there was only one Spinosaurus and so many people working together, it would be easy to deal with. Previously, everyone worked together to kill a Spinosaurus. Although these Spinosaurus did not taste very good, its meat was unusually tough, and it took a lot of firewood to cook it until it was soft and rotten, but it was edible enough to feed the people in the mines.
So he wanted to slaughter the corpse of Spinosaurus and discard the bones for meat, and its size was huge. Weighing 14 or 5 tons, the meat is divided and the huge bones are removed, so that it is easy to carry. But I didn't expect that killing the underground side would attract six companions who jumped out of nowhere!
"Captain, what should I do?" A team member named Zhang Sibao asked nervously.
Hu Dacun's face was solemn, but he said without the slightest hesitation: "Fight, these animals are faster than us, and they can't escape if they escape, it's better to fight!" β
He himself is a martial arts cultivator, so he can deal with it calmly, and he can use light skills to leave, but there are still twenty-six middle-level martial arts team members, and these subordinates are not capable of dealing with the danger in front of them alone.
"Roar ββ!"
Suddenly, there was a terrifying roar, and the largest Spinosaurus attacked first. These Spinosaurs were very clever, and seeing that the defense of the formation they were standing on was a little lax, they suddenly launched the most violent attack......
Spinosaurus's thick and barbed tail was very terrifying, every time it swept away, the surrounding trees were all broken, no matter how small, they were extremely fast, their long thick legs allowed them to escape to a height of twenty or thirty meters, a pair of breasts and feet, and a big mouth were all powerful weapons.
Twenty-seven men fought with six giant Spinosaurs, and the scene was like a storm, with branches flying and roaring to the sky. Fortunately, the weapons in the hands of the beast hunters are excellent, and they infuse the knives in their hands with vitality, emitting sharp and incomparable white rays, and every time they slash, the skin of the Spinosaurus will inevitably open and the flesh will bloom!
However, the spinosaurus with thick skin and thick flesh will be even more ferocious after being injured, and the big tail will be swept away, except for Hu Dacun, the captain of the Martial Sect, few people have the power to block this sweep! They scattered in all directions to dodge, and the team members who couldn't escape were instantly hit by a giant hammer of Wanjun, and the protective body qi on their bodies could not play the slightest role, and they were pumped far away, and fell to the ground and vomited blood......
"Brothers, don't scatter, concentrate on killing one!" Hu Changcun drank loudly as he dealt with the biggest Spinosaurus.
But in the face of the attack of the other five Spinosaurus, how can Yi Rong concentrate his strength? In just a few tens of seconds, several people were seriously injured, and some even lost their mobility, so they could only lie on the ground with fear and wait for death.
"Quack ββ!"
At this moment, I suddenly heard a loud shout from high in the sky that shook the wilderness!
The beast hunter team all changed color in shock, and the voice ...... It must be a very frightening ferocious bird! However, in the shock of the team members, they suddenly felt the pressure relaxed, only to see the largest Spinosaurus suddenly roar. Then the six-headed Spinosaurus gave up the attack at this time, and turned its head in unison and fled for its life in the depths of the dense forest.
"What's going on?" The big men were shocked and stunned.
"Boom ......"
Suddenly, the forest darkened, and a pair of huge wings that covered the sky and the sun appeared above the treetops......
"It's the Crowned Mountain Eagle!" One of them screamed.
Immediately after, two figures shot out of the eagle like lightning from the crown mountain eagle, and chased in the direction of the dragonthorn's escape. The beast hunters could see clearly that the two figures were a man and a woman. One of the women threw down a sentence: "Don't panic, all the soldiers, this seat is Long Yurou, and I will come back after I kill those animals......"
"Great, it's Elder Long!" The men cheered.
Rong Yuanhang and the three of them saw the big man in the forest in the sky, and they knew from their clothes that they were the beast hunting team in the mine. Because the trees in the forest are tall. Guanshan Eagle is not suitable for fighting in this kind of place, and at the same time, Rong Yuanhang is also afraid that Xiao Xue will make some mistakes, so he let Guanshan Eagle hover in the sky, leaving Xiao Xue behind, and he and Long Yurou went to hunt down the six-headed Spinosaurus.
The battle ended quickly, Rong Yuanhang had just killed one, Long Yurou had already killed the remaining five, although these Spinosaurs were fierce, they couldn't withstand her punch! The characters at the peak of the Martial Saint are not covered.
With a punch, Spinosaurus's head shattered instantly. Long Yurou didn't stop for a flash, and went to chase the next one.
Rong Yuanhang was afraid of getting his hands dirty, so he happened to bring the treasure knife, but with a knife, the long mangs seemed to be a bolt of lightning, and he cut off the entire head of the Spinosaurus in an instant. The huge head rolled to the ground, and the headless monster could still run more than two hundred meters, but Rong Yuanhang was stunned......
Seven huge Spinosaurus corpses were found and placed together, one head neatly arranged, the scene was quite shocking.
"This is our new Elder Rong. Let's see each other. Rou Longyu said loudly to the twenty-seven big men.
"See Elder Rong!" Everyone knelt down on one knee and performed a solemn ceremony. Rong Yuanhang had been to the barracks, but he had never seen the two dozen people in front of him.
"Get up, they are all your own brothers, you don't need to be polite." Rong Yuanhang held his hands weakly. Said happily. These big men are all strong and mighty, at least forty years old, they are all middle-level martial arts cultivators, and now they have respectfully made such a big salute to themselves, he feels that it is very useful.
Long Yurou introduced the captain Hu Dacun to him separately, and Xiao Xue also gave everyone a little mention. But when she introduced her identity, she was vague and did not say that she was Rong's mother-in-law.
Xiao Xue was born beautiful, standing behind Rong Yuanhang like a jade, which attracted many of these big men to peek at her frequently.
Long Yurou pointed to the Spinosaurus on the ground and asked puzzledly, "How did these Spinosaurus appear in such a place?" Do you know what brought them here? β
The territory of Dongtaizhou is very vast, and dinosaurs generally grow in distant coastal areas, and rarely break into the inland here. In particular, these large carnivorous tyrannosaurs, if they appear frequently in this interior, I am afraid that it will affect the ecological balance of the surrounding land.
Long Yurou's question made the beast hunting team unable to answer, and they also didn't know why there were always traces of dinosaurs recently. As a result, the herbivorous animals may have to migrate, which directly affects the harvest they hunt.
Rong Yuanhang also thought of this problem and said: "It seems that there will be more of them in the future, the appearance of dinosaurs will affect ecological development, Elder Long, how about I come out with you to kill dinosaurs when I have time?" β
Long Yurou nodded and said, "Well, it's time to kill it, at least we have to protect the surrounding area of our mine from being affected." β
Each of the hunting squads came with horses, but when it came time to hunt, the horses were left out of the forest, and there was still some distance to fetch them. The seven-headed Spinosaurus, each weighing about ten tons, the beast hunting team could not bring it back at one time, and it was still more than 150 kilometers away from the mine, and finally discussed, Rong Yuanhang, Long Yurou, and Xiao Xue went back first, and then notified the mine to send more people to get the seven-headed Spinosaurus back.
Although Spinosaurus was not very ugly, its flesh was edible. It is far from enough for the mine to rely exclusively on supplies from Black Iron City, and these seven dinosaurs can sustain the nutritional supply of more than 5,000 people in the mine for two months.
The seven-headed Spinosaurus was divided and brought back, causing a small sensation in the mine, and each person could get more or less a few catties or dozens of catties of Spinosaurus meat.
In the evening, people laugh and laugh, set up fires, and eat Spinosaurus meat as if they were celebrating a festival. If you can't finish eating, you can smear salt and dry it to make bacon and bacon. Save for next time. Most people are reluctant to eat all the dinosaur meat they get in one go, and they try their best to keep the meat longer.
Rong Yuanhang originally wanted to have dinner with the tenants in the stone courtyard, but he was invited by Captain Liu Yongyuan to the men's barracks to drink with them.
"Elder Rong, this wine is not as good as the bottles you brought last time. But it's not bad! Liu Yongyong picked up the wine bottle and smiled and touched his glass with him.
At this moment, Rong Yuanhang got together with Wang Shousong, Liu Yongyong and a few team leaders. In the open-air school yard, under the flickering torches, the big men sat bare-shouldered and shirtless, drank a lot of wine, ate a lot of meat, and chatted. It's very enjoyable.
"What kind of wine?" Wang Shousong asked inexplicably, he also loved the contents of this cup, and almost all the beautiful cups from Black Iron City were repaid by him.
Rong Yuanhang thought for a while and smiled: "There are other wines in the room, I'll go over and get them." He stood up.
Liu Yongyuan was overjoyed, but said, "Elder Rong, why do you use your old man to run errands yourself,...... Omura, don't go yet! He nudged the captain of the beast trapping team next to him.
"No need. He doesn't know the situation, so I'd better do it myself. Rong Yuanhang didn't allow them to say anything more, and his figure flashed. It's out of the tent. Avoiding the sight of the guards in the camp, he crossed back to the villa, and not long after, he returned with two large urns of liquor.
"That one was gone last time, but it tastes good, so let's drink it. Haha......" Rong Yuanhang said, the last time he took out Moutai on the way, but so many modern packaging is difficult to explain after all, so he specially asked Li Chunchun to prepare some high-quality liquor, and there is not much stock of liquor in the mine. This is just the right time.
The liquor brought by Rong Yuanhang tasted mellow and soft, sweet and clear, and the rich aroma of wine wafted throughout the camp, attracting the coveted by other soldiers. A soldier who was good with the squad leader came over and begged for a drink. As a result, all the men came cheekily to beg for wine. There were only two urns in total, and in Liu Yongyuan's extremely reluctant gaze, Rong Yuanhang gave another urn of liquor to everyone.
These men gathered, and the smell of sweat on his body was really unbearable for him. Covering his nose, he said to a very smelly big man: "I said dude, how long have you not taken a bath?" β
The big man scratched his scalp embarrassedly: "Hehe, it's been about twenty days." I can't remember the small ones. Anyway, there was a shortage of water in the camp, so it would pass in one fell swoop. β
"Stay away!" The other team waved his hand and scolded, "You're fucking sloppy, there's not enough water in the camp, won't you take the time to take a bath at the foot of the mountain?" β
"Boss, it's a good journey of dozens of miles, it's better to sleep well with this idle time." The big man argued with a hippie smile.
"Go, go, do whatever you like," the squad leader chased him away like a fly.
Water supply in the mining area is too difficult, and Rong Yuanhang feels more and more that it is urgent to solve the water problem. In fact, there are many ways to solve this problem, but the most convenient is to use the plane gate, which can transfer a large amount of water from the main plane to use, but the question is whether it will be too shocking to do so? However, I didn't dare to use such a convenient method, and that feeling was too depressing.
"General Shousong, I can solve this problem of water difficulties," Rong Yuanhang finally made a decision and proposed it to Wang Shousong.
"Oh, Elder Rong has a way to solve it? How to fix it? Wang Shousong suddenly came to his senses, and Liu Yongyuan and other captains couldn't help but look at him excitedly when they saw that he said that there was a way to solve the water difficulty.
Rong Yuanhang said mysteriously: "It's very simple, borrow the brothers in the barracks and dig a big pool nearby." β
"Dig a big pool?" Wang Shousong said with a smile: "After digging, pick it up one by one? β
"You just dig, and I'll be in charge of the water. I can fill as much water as I can dig in the pool! Rong Yuanhang said. The most important thing is that with water nearby, the attack ability of the Rainbow Dragon, an ice beast, will also increase, which is a great thing to kill two birds with one stone.
"Really?" Liu Yuanyong asked incredulously: "How big a pit we dig, how much water can you really fill?" β
"Not bad," Rong Yuanhang said lightly, "and as long as I am in the mine for one day, I can make the pool always full!" (To be continued.) )
