Chapter 52: Dragon Scales?
"Good stuff! If only I could bring some back to the 21st century. ”
Gu Ren sighed, although warm jade is precious, but this is the Tang Dynasty, and the value of jade in the Tang Dynasty is too different from the value of jade in later generations. If you can bring it back to the 21st century, each piece will be worth a fortune.
"Twenty-first century?"
Ah Mao looked at Gu Ren puzzled, this word was very fresh.
"Well, it's a long way in the future, maybe the big brother will never go back, don't say it, tell you, you won't understand."
Gu Ren sighed.
"Oh........."
Mao is very obedient.
Gu Ren and Ah Mao walked and stopped along the riverbed, and for about an hour, they found a large bag of warm jade, which were all natural and high-quality jade, and each piece was very valuable.
The two of them had reached the end of the riverbed, and then there was a lush jungle, which, strangely enough, seemed to have a clear dividing line, along which the riverbed and the jungle were divided.
This river beach is not simple, this is Gu Ren's intuition.
"Big brother, what are you doing with so many Divine Stones?"
Ah Mao saw Gu Ren carrying a large bag of stones, and was a little puzzled.
"Uh...... Take it out and play with the kids in the city, they love this kind of stone. And didn't you say that this magic stone is a demon fight? As long as those children in the city take the Divine Stone, they will not be afraid of evil spirits. ”
Gu Ren smiled, of course he wouldn't tell Ah Mao to take it out and sell it.
"Oh, big brother, you're so kind."
Ah Mao was touched by Gu Ren.
"Huh...... Mao, help me pick up this stone. ”
Gu Ren saw a very special piece of jade on the ground and asked Ah Mao to pick it up.
Ah Mao bent down and picked it up and handed it to Gu Ren, Gu Ren looked at it carefully, this piece of jade was not big, only the size of a pigeon's egg, but there was actually a golden scale in the jade.
Gu Ren put down the bag of jade he was carrying on his shoulder, frowning, very puzzled, the scales in it were lifelike, as if some animal had fallen from it just now.
Jade is different from amber, which is formed from pine resin and is soft. Jade is relatively hard and forms under harsh conditions. Even if the probability of the formation of paleontological fossils is only 1 in a million, it is even more unheard of for a single scale to appear in jade.
"Ah Mao, have you ever seen this kind of god-beating stone?"
Gu Ren asked Ah Mao. If Ah Mao has seen something similar, it means that there is still this kind of jade here.
"I haven't seen it, but I've seen this scale in the ancient books of the patriarch's house."
Ah Mao looked at the scales inside the jade and said.
"Really? What animal scales are these? ”
Gu Ren thought about it for a while, and found that the scales inside this jade were really special, straight, with a circle of golden textures on it, not like the scales of fish, nor like the scales of other amphibians.
"It's the dragon's scales, but it's so small, and it doesn't look like a ......."
Mao's brow furrowed.
"Dragon's Scales? Is this called Heilongjiang? ”
Gu Ren swallowed his saliva, could it be that he really picked up the treasure? This can't be the place where a black dragon lived, and if that were, would there be a dragon sunflower here?
His heart was thrilled...... His eyes wandered around.
"Who dares to break into our Sanhua Forbidden Land!"
At this moment, a man's shout came from inside the woods, and more than a dozen figures came out of the woods.
These dozen or so people were all holding bows and arrows, and they rushed quickly and surrounded Gu Ren and Ah Mao. It looks like the Indians of the jungle people, and they are short of two feathers on their heads.
"Uncle Gouzi, this is the big brother, don't hurt him!"
Ah Mao hurriedly opened his arms and blocked Gu Ren behind him.
"Ah Mao, you are so bold. Don't talk about bringing outsiders into the village, but dare to bring them to Shagobi, don't you know that this is a forbidden place in our village? ”
One of the middle-aged men shouted.
"I ...... I was in the village where I sent my eldest brother away, and I accidentally passed by here, worried that my eldest brother would encounter evil spirits again, so I thought about picking up a few sacred stones for my eldest brother to carry. ”
Ah Mao said nervously, because he was too simple, he was in a hurry to lie.
"How many pieces are there for such a bag of Divine Stones? Ah Mao, you just wait for the patriarch to lock you up! ”
The middle-aged man glared at Ah Mao and fixed his gaze on Gu Ren.
"This son, our Sanhua Village kindly took you in and healed your injuries, you are not grateful, and you also instigated Ah Mao to enter the forbidden land and steal the Divine Stone. Now, we don't want to do anything to you, please put down all the Divine Stones and leave our Sanhua Village immediately! ”
"Uh...... Misunderstanding, absolute misunderstanding! I want everyone to save me, there is no way to repay, just help do some work, this stone is far away from the village, everyone came to pick up how hard it is, how difficult it is, I will come over to help get some stone to go back and distribute it to everyone. You're misunderstanding......"
Gu Ren said it seriously.
"Really?"
These people are quite simple, and when they heard Gu Ren say this, they really believed his words.
"No matter what your original intentions are, now that you have broken into our forbidden land, please leave the village!"
The middle-aged man said coldly.
Gu Ren knew that this was the rhythm that was going to drive him away from the village.
"Okay, but I have a request, I want to take Mao with me. Ah Mao, would you like to? ”
"Yes, I do!"
Ah Mao's eyes lit up and he hurriedly replied.
"This son, Ah Mao has violated the clan rules, and he must be punished. So, it was impossible to leave the village. ”
The middle-aged man vetoed Gu Ren's request.
"This ......"
Gu Ren's face was embarrassed, he really wanted to take Ah Mao away.
"Big brother, it's okay, I'll come out to you after I finish the confinement. You take the grass and leave first. ”
Mao is optimistic.
"Well, that's fine. Then I'll take Xiaocao away first, and after you come out, go to the headquarters of the Tianji faction in Qujiang City to find me. ”
Gu Ren explained to Ah Mao.
Half an hour later, Gu Ren left Sanhua Village with a big sheep and grass with a long neck. To be precise, he was driven away from Sanhua Village. Xiaocao was extremely reluctant to follow Gu Ren, and silently cursed Gu Ren hundreds of times in his heart, but Gu Ren threatened it, if he didn't follow him, he would tell the whole village the fact that he was talking to people, and it would definitely be slaughtered as a monster at that time!
Mao was taken away, and he didn't know where he was being confined.
The road out of the village was crooked, and Gu Ren didn't know how many laps it took to get out of a lush grove.
When I came out and looked back, the way I came from disappeared, as if it had mysteriously disappeared.
"Ah Cao, do you remember the way we came out?"
Gu Ren looked down at Xiaocao and wondered.
"Despicable and filthy rascals, please call me grass!"
The big-necked sheep grass roared in an almost roaring tone.
"Ah Cao, Ah Mao said, let you be obedient. You must know that the outside world is very cruel, how many people are struggling to make ends meet, and how many people can't eat a meal of meat for months or even a year. You are a big sheep that grows so fat, and you fall into the wild...... How sure are you that you will survive? ”
Gu Ren deliberately tightened the reins and strode forward.
"Ah, I don't want you to care! Ahem, ahem! ”
Xiaocao fell on his buttocks, refusing to move forward, and his face was flushed.
……
When Gu Ren returned to Shaozhou City with Xiaocao, it was almost afternoon. Gu Ren didn't expect that he had gone so far.
Of course, it has something to do with the grass and the mood is not good to walk.
Shaozhou City is full of traffic, so it's not lively. Xiaocao followed behind Gu Ren, her curiosity gradually aroused, and her rejection of Gu Ren also decreased.
Gu Ren just came to the outside of Jiang's mansion, and before he could enter the door, he didn't see Sanqi, but he actually bumped into Hu Yanjiao.
When Hu Yanjiao saw Gu Ren, her gloomy eyes suddenly released light, like a lost deer finally seeing her mother, her eyes flashed with tears, she was so excited.
"Thief, where did you die!"
Hu Yanjiao grabbed Gu Ren's arm and accused angrily.
"I ...... Seeing the spring outside the city, it is good, and I have gone to spring! ”
Gu Ren is serious.
"It's summer, what kind of spring are you treading on! Eat grapes without spitting out grape skins...... Eat grapes without spitting out grape skins...... Eat grapes without spitting out grape skins...... Get your wallet now! ”
Hu Yanjiao stretched out her hand and pulled the money bag from Gu Ren's waist and turned around to save her.
"Damn, is this a robbery?"
Gu Ren hesitated for a long time, looked at Hu Yanjiao's distant disappearing back, shook his head, and entered Jiang's mansion.
