Chapter 56: The Crypt (Asking for Collections and Red Tickets)
Luo Ping smiled knowingly, resisted the urge to catch up, and officially began to look for the red sandalwood chess pieces.
Quietly opened the treasure hunting skill, according to Yanzi's statement, he searched around in the stone crevices, and after a while, he found five chess pieces, and the harvest was huge.
Since the last time he got the red sandalwood chess piece, Luo Ping specially checked some information on the Internet, and found that such a large diameter chess piece is rare, and there is almost no appearance on the market, and the red sandalwood chess piece that is slightly smaller than it is also surprisingly high, one can be sold for a high price of one or two hundred thousand, if you can get together a whole pair, it is definitely a priceless treasure.
Long Xin saw Luo Ping constantly looking for things in the grass, so he came over curiously, and when he saw the red sandalwood chess pieces in Luo Ping's hand, he also helped find them. As luck would have it, she found two in the grass on the other side.
There are a total of thirty-two chess pieces, plus the one he got from Yanzi, Luo Ping now has a total of eight, and twenty-four are missing.
According to Lao Wu, there used to be a pavilion on this Qingfeng Mountain, which was later abandoned. Luo Ping also saw some ruins and broken walls just now, and these chess pieces were probably accidentally left here after someone finished playing chess in the pavilion.
In addition, Lao Wu also said that when the soldiers were in chaos in the past, the people of Phoenix Ridge had evaded the soldiers on the mountain, and it is possible that these chess pieces were sprinkled here at that time.
If it is the former reason, then there may not be too many chess pieces left on the mountain, and if it is because of the lack of soldiers, then it is possible to find other objects.
Luo Ping hoped that it was the latter, because although these red sandalwood chess pieces were valuable, he could also directly absorb wealth from them, but the level was too low, and it would not help to repair Baishi's "Shrimp and Crab Diagram".
It is imperative to find an object of higher grade than the "Shrimp and Crab Picture".
He has no other way now but to hope for this, hoping that with the special ability of treasure hunting, he can find valuable treasures.
It took him nearly two hours to search all the grass on the top of the mountain, plus what the dragon heart found, and found a total of fifteen chess pieces.
They had lunch at Lao Wu's house before going up the mountain, and it was now close to three o'clock. The sky was clear just now, but before you knew it, dark clouds were gathering rapidly, and the mountain wind was howling, which was a precursor to the arrival of heavy rain.
"It seems that there are no other chess pieces on this mountain." Long Xin was still looking for the bushes, and she didn't ask Luo Ping what was the use of finding these chess pieces, she was very well-behaved. Luo Ping glanced at the dark clouds in the sky and decided to go down the mountain, although he didn't have to worry about getting caught in the rain in the summer. sick, but he didn't want Long Xin to suffer with him, not to mention that she was a girl, and being caught in the rain would definitely not be good for her body, and after her clothes were wet, it would inevitably make her feel embarrassed.
Calling the dragon heart, Luo Ping carried a travel bag full of red sandalwood chess pieces on his back, and slowly followed the original path down the mountain.
"It's easy to go up the mountain, but it's hard to go down."
Luo Ping deeply understood the meaning of this sentence, because the mountain road is steep and there are a lot of gravel, so every step needs to be taken with special care. But despite this, he still insisted on walking in front of the dragon's heart, even if he fell, he couldn't affect the dragon's heart.
"Brother Luo, look!" Long Xin suddenly shouted behind him, and Luo Ping looked back to see that she was happily holding a red sandalwood chess piece.
"This was picked up here?" Luo Ping took the chess piece, looked left and right, and found that not far from the left was a bottomless cliff, and on the right was a dense bush with branches and vines, covering the sky and the sun.
"Boom!"
At this moment, there was a muffled thunder in the sky, the mountain wind blew more rapidly, and faintly raindrops fell in advance.
"Brother Luo, there's a cave there." Long Xin Shili was good, and when he saw a cave more than one person high behind the bushes, he shouted happily.
Luo Ping's spirits perked up, remembering what Lao Wu had said, and felt that this cave was very likely to be the place where the people of Phoenix Ridge hid in the past when they were hiding from the chaos, and maybe there were treasures in it.
"Dragon Heart, you stand farther away." The heavy rain came immediately, Luo Ping quickly made a decision, took the mountain opening knife and chopped indiscriminately, cut a path in the bushes, and groped his way to the entrance of the cave with the dragon's heart.
The heavy rain poured down densely, Luo Ping and Long Xin stood at the entrance of the cave, looking at the rain curtain pouring down outside, and glanced at each other, both showing a knowing smile.
The cave is deep, and the black ground is bottomless. Luo Ping touched the surrounding walls, all of them were solid mountain stones, with obvious traces of excavation. Luo Ping found a few dry branches at the entrance of the cave, lit them with a lighter, led the way in front, and led the dragon heart to the depths of the cave.
Suddenly, there was a sound from inside the cave, like something running. Luo Ping hurriedly stopped and motioned for Long Xin to slowly retreat.
The sound grew louder and louder, and just as Luo Ping and the others retreated to the entrance of the cave, a huge wild boar suddenly ran out from the depths of the cave.
This wild boar was at least one or two hundred catties, it stopped a few meters in front of Luo Ping, panting, a pair of sharp eyes staring at him deadly, and its sharp fangs flashed with cold light.
Luo Ping's hair stood on end, he didn't expect to encounter a wild boar on the mountain, and he didn't even hear Lao Wu say it. He quietly clenched the mountain knife in his hand and lowered his body, ready to guard against the sudden attack of the wild boar at any time.
Long Xin was also frightened, although she had been staying in Jiufeng Mountain, she had never seen a wild boar, she didn't know what kind of animal it was, it looked so ugly, and besides, she felt danger.
The Pixiu in the palm of Luo Ping's right hand was extremely hot, frantically suggesting that he was facing great danger. But Luo Ping had no way to retreat, and while fighting against the wild boar, he slowly retreated.
The dragon heart had already retreated outside the cave, and Luo Ping would immediately be able to flash to the side and make way for the wild boar. Unfortunately, the wild boar was obviously coming at him, and just as he stepped into the mud with one foot, it suddenly launched and rushed towards Luo Ping like a heavy tank.
"Roar!"
Luo Ping roared, and the mountain knife slashed heavily on the top of the wild boar's head, but unfortunately the beast's fur was wrapped in a thick layer of mud, like a layer of armor protecting its whole body, and the mountain knife did not hurt it at all, but Luo Ping's tiger mouth was numb, and he almost threw the mountain knife out.
In an instant, the wild boar violently hit Luo Ping. With a muffled snort, Luo Ping's entire body flew out, like a kite with a broken string, and flew towards the cliff.
"Brother Luo!" Long Xin pounced towards Luo Pingfei, just a little bit behind, and watched him fall towards the bottom of the cliff.
Dragonheart got up from the mud and rushed to the edge of the cliff like crazy, shouting and crying, but the rain was pouring down, drowning out all her shouts.
Just then, the sound of running behind her was heard again.
Long Xin was angry, this was the first time she had grown so big. That's it, this ugly guy knocked Big Brother Luo off the cliff and had to pay the price.
The boar continued to charge at her. Without any hesitation, the dragon heart even rushed towards the wild boar, and just as he was about to collide with it, his footsteps moved sideways, and his petite body spun like a whirlwind, and with a roar of rage, a hand knife slashed heavily on its spine.
"Click!"
There was a clear sound of bones breaking, and the wild boar screamed and fell heavily to the ground, convulsed twice, and remained motionless.
The rain became heavier and heavier, and the dragon's heart was not only soaked, but also covered with mud, and the beautiful sun hat also fell into the mud, and it was no longer as beautiful as before.
"Brother Luo!" Long Xin lay on the edge of the cliff and cried loudly, hoarse. She regretted it extremely much, Weishenme didn't make a move earlier just now, she felt that she had caused Luo Ping to fall off the cliff.
There are many rocks under the cliff, and there is absolutely no chance of survival if you fall from here. Long Xin cried for a while, stood up in despair, wiped the tears on his face, and muttered, "Brother Luo, I caused you to fall, I'm here to accompany you, you wait for me!" ”
As she slowly walked to the edge of the cliff, a hand suddenly reached out from below and slapped heavily on the stone at her feet.
"It's Brother Luo!"
Long Xin was pleasantly surprised, grabbed this hand quickly, and used all his strength to finally pull Luo Ping up from below.
"Brother Luo!" Long Xin hugged Luo Ping tightly, and his little face was tightly pressed against Luo Ping's scarred face. The joy of her regain made her weep with joy, and tears and rain continued to flow.
