Back at the hotel, we had a meal of the hotel's signature stone pot fish.

The fish is tender and smooth, and the taste is moderately salty, which is indeed the same as the driver said, good.

Fang Nan had a good night's rest, and the next morning, after eating the hotel's free breakfast, he went to the side of Heyang Road, ready to take a ride to the Ziyin mining area.

From Ziyang Town to Yanglin City, there is a fixed shuttle bus every day, and Fang Nan asked the waiter of the hotel.

After waiting on the side of the road, Fang Nan took a bus to Yanglin City.

It was a minibus, and there were only a few passengers in it.

Fang Nan sat down by the window, looking out of the window at the desolate scenery that kept flying and retreating.

Because Hotan is a jade mine, it is difficult for plants and trees to grow, and as the main production area of Hetian jade, the desolation outside Ziyang is even more obvious.

All that comes into view are bare stone mountains, occasionally seeing a few bunches of greenery, and the bushes that are desperately struggling out of the cracks in the rocks, struggling to survive.

As soon as the car leaves the town, it is as if you have arrived in another world.

"Compared to the surrounding areas of Hotan City, it's much more desolate!"

On the front seat of Fang Nan, a neatly dressed young man wearing dark green cropped pants was holding a mobile phone and constantly taking pictures of the scenery along the way, while talking to the girl next to him.

"I thought there was something fun, but it turned out to be all stones. Red, yellow, green, white, it feels like a kingdom of stones! ”

The girl in the white and blue plaid dress said with a smile in an exaggerated tone.

"It's good to go to Heyang, there is a particularly blue lake there, and the environment is very good."

"Before you came to Hetian, you lied to me like this!!"

"Huh!"

The two kept chatting about the scenery, people and things, and food along the way.

Fang Nan casually turned his head and glanced at the girl.

A pair of slightly squinted eyes, petite like a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl, if it weren't for the fact that her face looked more mature, it really made people suspect that she was an underage girl.

The young man had an inverted triangle figure like a fitness trainer, a white short-sleeved shirt, a bulging body, a healthy wheat complexion, and a slightly old-fashioned face.

But the purity in the young man's eyes made people feel that he was just a young man in his early twenties.

After glancing at it, Fang Nan withdrew his gaze, opened his mobile phone to look at the navigation, and made sure how far he was to reach his destination.

The bus circled and circled around the mountains, over one hill after another, through one tunnel after another.

After about an hour, Fang Nan looked at the location of his mobile phone, and the car had arrived, the center of the mountain range.

It is also the closest location to the Ziyin mining area.

So Fang Nan got up and said to the driver who was driving, "Master, get out of the car in front." ”

The driver was a bald middle-aged man in his forties with thinning hair.

Hearing Fang Nan's words, he stepped on the brakes and looked back at him flatly.

The bald driver's face was a little surprised, and he didn't think there was anything strange about getting off the bus halfway.

Waiting for the car to stop, Fang Nan took the canvas bag he specially equipped and got out of the car.

"Be careful, young man."

Waiting for Fang Nan to get out of the car, the bald driver still reminded him meaninglessly.

Fang Nan thanked him, and walked to a nearby barren mountain without looking back.

It was not strange for the driver to get out of the car south, but there were many unknown people in the car, and they were curious.

"Master, are there any people living around here?"

The sturdy young man who was originally sitting in the front row of Fang Nan asked curiously.

The bald driver let go of the brakes, turned his head to look at Fang Nan, who had gradually walked away, and said in a flat tone: "No, there are no villages within a radius of more than ten miles!" ”

"That person?"

"The jade diggers, there is a well-known waste mine nearby, it is estimated that they went there to dig it! But it's also possible that it's just a curious young man who wants to see where to go. ”

The bald driver was apparently a local and knew about the nearby Ziyin mining area.

"But today's young people are really bold, and they dare to try their luck in that kind of place at a young age."

It was probably the words of the young man that opened the bald driver's conversation, and he began to talk about the Ziyin mining area.

"So, the local old people who are not bold are generally afraid to go there! I don't dare to go anyway! ”

The bald driver finally sighed and stopped talking.

"Oh!"

After listening to the bald driver's words, the young man and his female companion all showed curious and interested looks.

……

After getting off the bus, Fang Nan followed the general direction in the map and moved forward.

After crossing the hill on the side of the road, Fang Nan blessed himself with the Wind Resisting Technique.

The footsteps are on the stone, and the light step is several meters away, and the figure flickered, and it was already a hundred meters away.

This was the first time that Fang Nan let go of his full strength and hurried as fast as he could.

In just four or five minutes, Fang Nan had already crossed a distance of three or four kilometers to a mine that seemed to have been abandoned for a long time.

More than a dozen, dilapidated wooden houses, full of loopholes and crevices.

The ground was littered, clothes that had been mostly buried in the ground, porcelain bowls broken into several pieces, and iron pots.

A few rare beard trees, long straight and tall, stand on the edge of the wooden house like pacesetters.

The heat wave blows, and the poplar leaves rattle.

The poplar trees are densely packed with gravel and mud, piles of different sizes. Fang Nan roughly calculated, there are about hundreds of stone piles here.

Fang Nan took a boastful step, walked to the pile of stones, and found a rectangular wooden plank on the ground that was diagonally on the ground. On the wooden board was red ink, and a few large characters that looked bloody were written.

Tomb of the Purple Yin Mine Disaster Miners!!

"Who's so boring?"

Fang Nan looked at the plank, or the tombstone, and frowned.

This tombstone-like thing is not only strangely written in unknown red paint, but also has a relatively new material.

Fang Nan had heard that the mining accident had happened for more than ten years, and if the tombstone was made of such ordinary wood, I am afraid it would have rotted long ago!

And no one would write the inscription so horribly.

As long as it is a slightly more careful and bold person, you can see that this is clearly deliberately made by someone with ulterior motives.

This word seems to be really written in blood, and it is really painstaking. I just don't know what this man's purpose is. Could it be to scare the people who come to dig for jade? ”

Fang Nan looked around, but he didn't find anything else.

"Whoever it is, it's best not to mess with me!"

"Let's see if there are any spiritual materials first!"

Fang Nan naturally couldn't be scared away by a bloody plank, not to mention that it was difficult to form ghosts in this world, even if he really had it, he was not afraid.

"Soul Seeking"

Fang Nan condensed a rune in the palm of his hand, squatted down, and pressed the rune to the ground.

Fang Nan's hand on the ground seemed to be touching not the ground, but the surface of the water. A faint white light spread out from the palm of his hand like ripples.

"Nope!"

Feeling the message from the spell, Fang Nan shook his head with some disappointment.
