I was busy looking for the hole through which there was air flowing, and I didn't notice what the smell was, and when I saw the fat man standing at the mouth of the cave and sniffed his nose, I asked, "What smell?" The smell in this cave may be the of black butterflies, don't smell it, be careful of poisoning. ”

The fat man beckoned to me and the big gold tooth: "No, you two come and smell it, it smells so, I smell like chocolate." ”

"Chocolate?" I and the big gold tooth heard this word, the unassuming stomach immediately "cooing" sounded, how can there be chocolate in this cave, I heard it inexplicably, but chocolate is too tempting for the three of us hungry people, even the big gold tooth with only half a life left, as soon as I heard the "chocolate" also came to the spirit, my eyes lit up, I didn't want to go over, but my legs kept commanding, and I walked a few steps towards the entrance of the cave without a trace.

I sniffed and sniffed, there was no chocolate, and I said to the fat man, "Are you hungry?" Isn't it the burnt smell of the rotten wood of the temple over there? ”

The fat man said, "How so? You get closer, the closer you get to the entrance of the cave, the stronger the fragrance, huh...... It's fragrant and sweet,**, is there a cream chocolate tree growing here, let's go in and see if there is anything to eat. ”

The big gold tooth also smelled it, and nodded again and again: "That's right, it's really chocolate, Master Hu, smell it, it's coming out of this hole." ”

I heard the big gold tooth say the same, I felt strange, so I took two steps closer, sniffed it with my nose in front of the hole, a strong milk mixed with the sweet smell of cocoa, straight to the brain, smelled this wonderful smell, the wounds on the body did not seem to be very painful, the spirit doubled, the whole body was full of muscles and bones, and the limbs and bones felt comfortable, and I couldn't help but praise: "He ***, it really smells fucking good, this smells ...... It's like ...... It's like a fucking angel's kiss. ”

The three of them could no longer hold back, holding candles into this dark cave, this cave is extremely narrow, only two meters high, three or four meters wide, the rocks in the cave are strangely shaped, like the roots of old trees, curled and convex.

The fat man, like a fat hound, sniffed with his nose as he walked ahead, looking for the source of the wonderful fragrance, when suddenly he pointed with his hand to a rock in the hole: "This is from here." After speaking, he wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth, and couldn't wait to pounce on it and bite a few bites.

I put the candle on the edge of the rock, and watched with the fat man with the big gold tooth, this big stone is like a tree trunk, the appearance is brown and yellow, as if it is wrapped in a layer of skin pulp, there are a few exposed parts, all are translucent, the stone cloth is slow to break the colorful patterns, greasy and transparent, illuminated by the candlelight, the texture in the stone seems to be faintly circulating, and the rich fragrance is coming from this stone.

The fat man couldn't help but reach out and touch it, put his finger on the side of his nose and sniffed it, and said to me and the big gold tooth: "Old Hu Laojin, when you touch it with your fingers, even your fingers turn into chocolate, can you eat this thing?" ”

I had never seen this kind of wonderful stone, and I shook my head puzzled: "I dug a pit in Kunlun Mountain for several years, and I have not seen all kinds of strange rocks, I think this is like a fossil of a tree trunk, and it should not be edible." ”

Because of the excessive fright, the big golden tooth who hadn't spoken for a long time suddenly said excitedly: "Master Hu, we're going to really make a fortune, don't you think this is the smell of fragrant jade?" ”

The fat man had never heard of this word, and asked the big golden tooth, "What?" Isn't that too biased in singing Brother Liu's speech? ”

The big golden tooth said to the fat man: "Fat man, what you are talking about is Chang Xiangyu who sings Henan Opera, I said that this stone is Wenxiangyu, also known as Jin Xiangyu, this is a baby." ”

I asked the big gold tooth: "Jin Xiangyu, I have heard that people have eyes that do not know Jin Xiangyu, and it is difficult to find Jin Xiangyu, is it this kind of stone?" I used to say that I was a very beautiful young lady, but then again, the fragrance of this stone is so unique that it is not lost to any big girl. ”

I don't know if it's the effect of the wonderful smell of fragrant jade, or the big gold tooth that was originally wilted and sluggish, at this time it became refreshed, and said to me and the fat man: "This thing is a royal secret treasure, and there has been an inverted bucket, poured out in the ancient tomb, the earliest seen in the Qin and Han dynasties, the ancient folk are not very common, so few people know, this thing is infinitely useful, the drier the environment, the stronger its aroma, there has been a poem to praise it: the world has not heard the flower interpretation, but now I see the fragrance of jade; The creation of the heavenly palace is inconceivable, and it is infinitely wonderful. I've taken a piece of it before, and it's poured out of the bucket by someone else, but it's pitifully small, and it's not as good as this one......"

When the fat man heard that this was a treasure, he hurriedly asked the big gold tooth: "How much can the old gold be worth such a big piece?" ”

The big gold tooth said: "The bigger the original stone of Wenxiang jade, the more valuable it is, and this skin is also a very precious medicinal material, I estimate that such a large piece, and look at this texture, it is definitely a top grade, at least it can be changed to an imported car." ”

I said to the big gold tooth: "Master Jin, this place is very close to the temple of the square bronze tripod, this piece of fragrant jade, isn't it a bright vessel?" ”

The big gold tooth thought for a while, and said to me: "No, I think this is a natural rough stone, if it is not for a small part of the outer skin peeled off, we can't smell it at all, you see that there is no trace of artificial excavation in this narrow hole, and the rest of the stones on the ground, Panpantuo, like tree roots, I think these are naturally formed fossils." ”

I said: "It seems that this is an ownerless thing, in this case, let's carry it back, I didn't expect to deliberately carry flowers and flowers do not bloom, unintentionally insert willows and willows into a line, bad luck ran into an empty tomb, half of the Ming vessel did not pour out, but fortunately, the ancestor grandfather opened his eyes, and finally did not teach us to be busy in vain, this time I was frightened a lot, and it was not a loss." ”

The fat man has been waiting for my words, and bent down to pick up this piece of smelling jade, but the big gold tooth hurriedly stopped him and said to the fat man: "Don't hug it like this, we have to find something to wrap it, if only we had cotton cloth." ”

I swept around, and the fat man and I were naked, our clothes were lit up, and half of the pants of the big gold tooth were torn off by me, and of the three, he was the only one wearing a shirt that had worn out on the back.

We only had a few candles left, and we were all hungry, and we couldn't stop long, or we would have to look around to see if there were any other rough stones, or some other fossils.

Seeing that the candle in my hand was half burned, I put the candle in a paper lamp, asked the big gold tooth to take off the tattered coat, wrapped the smelling jade, and the fat man carried it out of this narrow cave.

When I returned to the big cave outside, I saw that the temple with the bronze tripod of the human face had been completely burned down, and there were still some sporadic dark fires flashing in the coke of the ruins.

In the darkness, I could no longer see the surrounding form, and I said to the fat man and the big golden tooth: "There were no other black paddles coming out just now, but we can't conclude that they are all dead, maybe their kind was just scared away by the fire, and now that the fire is extinguished, it is likely that it will come out again, we must not delay any longer, and find a way to leave as soon as possible." ”

The fat man said: "It's okay to take that big ding, the bronze one should not burn out, let's go back to eat and drink enough, bring the guy and move it back, pour so many buckets, a piece of Ming utensils can't be brought back, this face must not look good." ”

The big golden tooth said to the fat man: "Fat man, I think you are still dead in that thing, the human face is afraid that it will weigh no less than a thousand catties, the three of us are bare-handed, how can we move it, and we can't sell it if we move back, this kind of thing is a national treasure that no mortal can afford, only the country can collect it, just let it continue to be in place, we got such a big piece of smelling jade, it is already a windfall, or don't make more trouble." ”

I and the fat man both know that the big gold tooth is a profiteer, but he is an old fritter in the antique shop, what antique Ming utensils can be bought and sold, the big gold tooth has a fine account in his heart, the tripod is a head-off thing, no matter how much money is a hot potato, there is a life to get rich, no blessing to suffer, no matter how much money he makes, in the end it is also a business that loses his old book, which is definitely not cost-effective, so even if the fat man is unwilling and unwilling, he has no choice but to do it.

Relying on the memories just now, the three of us groped our way along the stone wall of the cave to the next cave entrance, and I let the fat man and the big gold tooth hold their breath, took out a small half of the candle from the paper lamp, and pointed it at the entrance of the cave to test the air flow.

As soon as the small half of the candle was held at the entrance of the cave, the flame of the candle immediately went in the opposite direction to the cave, obliquely slanted, I put the candle back into the paper lamp to illuminate, and probed the mouth of the cave with my hand, and I could not feel the air flow too obviously, but the tilt of the candle flame proved that the hole was not a dead end, even if it was not connected to the outside, there was a huge space behind it, maybe it was the passage for those "black birds" to go out to hunt for food, as long as the air flowed, we had the opportunity to drill out of these caves.

So I held a paper lamp in front of the way, the fat man and the big gold tooth two people carried the "smell jade", from this cave into the hole, maybe the "smell of the jade" fragrance, the spirit of the people is indeed wonderful, although we are still very hungry, but feel energetic, sober-minded, the three of them got the baby, are overjoyed, have to drill out of the cave, to celebrate.

The cave is extremely tortuous, high and low, undulating, narrow and only allowed one person to pass, and when you go to the back, the cave is even more winding and steep, all of which are slopes at an angle of forty or fifty degrees.

I was walking in the cave, suddenly felt a cool swishing cold wind, blowing head-on, a layer of goosebumps on the body, I beckoned the fat man and the big gold tooth two to speed up the pace, as if almost to the exit, and not far forward, sure enough, the eyes lit up, it was a soil hole connected to the outside, I first put my head out, to see that there was no one left and right, the three of them crawled out naked, just outside the cave, the fat man behind me suddenly said to me: "Lao Hu, you are on the back...... Why do you have a human face? ”
