Chapter 17: Treasures in the Depths of the Ground

Soon, there was a rumbling sound in the distance, and a group of several people had come to a narrow crack, which was more than one person wide and forty-five degrees, extending deep into the stone.

Su Donglai stood under the crack in the stone, looked up for a while, took a tent, pulled out a rope from the tent, handed it to Mr. Billy, and bit the rope head with his teeth, and quickly climbed up.

This kind of camping tent is a military type, and the whole tent is made of two ropes, and in special times, it can be directly disassembled into two ropes.

Su Donglai's climbing ability was trained in an environment of ten times the gravity, and in this environment of only 0.8 times the gravity, climbing is quite easy.

Five minutes later, Su Donglai had already climbed out of the crack, which was a large stone depression on the top of the mountain, if the sea water overflowed the top of the mountain, this stone crack would become a drain, but after all, the terrain here was already very high, and no one could say what the situation would be at that time.

Su Donglai tied the rope to a big stone at the top, and then quickly slipped down the rope, and in a few words, he finished the introduction, suggesting that Xiao Jianqiang should take care of Mr. Billy, and Wang Yanzu should take care of Miss Taylor.

Seeing that they began to climb the rope, Su Donglai ran out with Mr. Howard.

In fact, Mr. Howard's life expectancy has exceeded the average life expectancy at that time, but this old gentleman has no desires, and he usually engages in scientific research, so he has nothing to worry about, so his health is fine. But running like this is not something that his old man can afford.

Fortunately, Mr. Howard's figure is not tall, and he is relatively thin, so in desperation, Su Donglai moved the food bag to his chest, leaned over and picked up the old man, and ran towards the entrance of the cave quickly.

Because he had come to see the terrain yesterday afternoon, and he had gone to the other side this morning, he had a general goal in mind where to avoid the flood.

While running, he taught the old gentleman to dismantle the tent, first take off the two metal poles, throw them away, then tear down a third of the tent, tie the thread tightly, and dismantle a big hole in the top of the tent, and then dispose of the other one according to the law.

When I arrived at the entrance of the mine, it was already eleven forty-five, and the sound of the waves hitting the stone forest in the distance came one after another, and the water in the stone forest rose rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Su Donglai carried Howard on his back and climbed on a stone slope close to sixty degrees, this stone slope is a broken section left after a boulder breaks, there are few obstacles, but there are few places for your hands to focus. Fortunately, Su Donglai's gloves and shoes are made of buffalo leather of the new star, which is both strong and non-slip.

By the time Su Donglai had climbed half the height, the valley below him had already begun to enter the water, and by the time he had climbed three-quarters of the way, the sea water had already flooded his heels.

By this time, Su Donglai was no longer climbing, but like a cheetah, kicking with both feet, jumping up in one step, landing with both hands, grasping the stone beam, then landing with both feet, and jumping up again.

As the sea water gradually came, Howard couldn't hold his breath anymore, and asked Su Donglai to give up on him several times, Su Donglai didn't answer him, just climbed upwards vigorously, and then Howard struggled to go down by himself, so that Su Donglai almost couldn't stabilize his body and was swept away by the waves.

Su Donglai, who couldn't bear it, shouted: "Don't move, you want to kill me!" "At this moment's delay, the sea water has reached the waists of the two of them.

However, at this time, the speed of the sea water began to slow down, and the speed of climbing back and forth with Su Dong gradually approached, and in a short distance, the sea water was always only the shoulders of the two people.

About to reach the top of the mountain, Su Donglai asked the old man to prepare the half-dismantled tent, when another wave hit, the two swam forward along the wave, and by the way put the knotted rope on the top of a stone mountain, the rushing waves, stretched the tent open, and leaked out of the hole in the top of the tent.

Old man Howard is a very smart person, and he still can't figure out why Su Donglai dismantled the tent like that on the road, but now he looks at it and completely understands.

This is like a funnel, and it is like a net, so that the old man can stay in it almost effortlessly, otherwise, how can the old man eat after two hours of fighting with the wind and waves.

Looking up, the tent where Su Donglai stayed was less than a meter away from him, and it was also swinging around in the tide, the old man couldn't help but smile and gave Su Dongfang a thumbs up.

At this time, under the surface of the water not far away, a surge of water vapor erupted, like a volcanic eruption, and the two of them pointed to the water vapor and began to speak.

"This water vapor is the lava layer that has been opened too deep in the mine, and the water vapor that has been poured into it, poured on the hot molten lava, and vaporized in large quantities, before it bursts out."

"You are indeed very knowledgeable, and I have the opportunity to learn from you."

"What is an opportunity, now is an opportunity."

"Ah, yes, yes, you've always taught you."

"Listen, in this rhenium mine, there are not only special alloys for the manufacture of starry sky engines, but also an alloy after the attenuation of a special metal, this alloy is extremely rare, only in this situation, that is, when the sea water cools down rapidly, it can be discovered, this kind of thing has no way to be produced industrially, and there are very few uses, but the effect is very special, so on the black market, the value is extremely high."

"Just like the pirates who sent us, the kind of spaceship they are riding on is worth about 500 million on the market, and if you want that kind of crystalline to exchange, it will only be three kilograms."

"Wow, that's amazing!"

"This kind of crystal, called rhenium crystal, this kind of thing under the irradiation of ultraviolet rays, emitting a very special mixed rays, this mixed rays, is very beneficial to the human body, if under this kind of rays, physical exercise, the changes in the body are quite amazing, and there is no harm."

"Isn't that priceless?"

"It can be said that this feature has not been discovered for a long time, so many people don't know that the price on the market is ridiculously expensive. If you get this kind of thing, very few people will sell it. ”

"So what do you want to keep in your hands?"

"Use it yourself! Who doesn't want to be stronger than others. ”

"So how do you find it?"

"The vein is melted, and when it is poured with water, a layer of black crust will appear on the surface, and under the crust is red molten slurry, if you look for it on the crust at this time, you may find that a white stone is embedded in the crust, with a big fist and a slight white light."

"Then we'll get a few later?"

"It's beautiful! That layer of black hard shell is so thin that if you are not careful, it will crack, and then the magma will come out and burn you. And then even if you find it, how do you get it out? There is magma directly below him, and he can't kill you! And it only lasted a few hours, and after a few hours, the molten slurry melted the crust on top again, and this time the opportunity was gone, and then we waited for the next time. ”

"Professor, according to you, will someone come and mine this kind of thing later! If only he was more ferocious than the pirates just now! ”

"It's really hard to say, those pirates won't necessarily want our lives, and if there really is a group of people who stay here to mine rhenium spars, most of them will kill us."

"Professor, there's something I'd like to ask you, I don't have identification right now, and I'm entangled with pirates, what should I do?"

"What is the purpose of your coming out?"

"Work hard, get ahead, and take all the people from your hometown."

"And what will you do for a living?"

"I don't know! , but my family's desire is to want me to be a great cook. ”

"That's not bad either. Let me think about it. ”

"You slowly help me think, I want to go there and find rhenium crystal."

"How's that going to work? It's dangerous. ”

"It's okay, I'll be careful, I still have someone at home waiting for me to take care of!"

"Well, be careful."

"Yes."

Next, the professor also explained to Su Donglai, why does this planet have a lot of water?

This is a mineral star, much smaller than the earth, but the density is relatively large, and the air and gravity are relatively close to the earth, but I don't know when, there is a comet with a lot of water and dust, skimming this planet, because the terrain of this planet is relatively flat, so on the surface of this planet, an ocean formed by comet water, is running around the whole planet, about thirteen days a cycle, our place is too close to the ocean, so there is a part of water on the seashore, and it spreads to the shore.

The water flow slowly stabilized, Su Dong looked at the time, half an hour had passed, the water overflowed the entire stone mountain, forming an ocean, but fortunately, the water surface was not much higher than the stone mountain, and the rope of the tent was long enough to tie the life jacket of two people, otherwise I don't know where it would be washed away!

After a while, the water slowly fell, and Su Donglai arranged the old man in a crevice under a rock, took two broken tents, and swam along the water to the place where the steam broke out.

The place is not far away, less than three hundred meters, the water surface is slowly descending, and many cracks are exposed, Su Donglai is not in a hurry to enter, and waits patiently outside.

Two hours later, there was no steam coming out at all, Su Donglai found the largest and most neat crack, tied a rope on the top, and slipped down the rope.

This crack is on the edge of the main mine, and it is also connected to the main mine, at a glance, more than 100 meters below, is the ground of the main mine, and there is water on the ground, which keeps flowing to the depths of the mine, making the entire main mine space still filled with hot water vapor.

Until the first rope, after reaching the end, Su Donglai took out the second rope, and then went down, getting hotter and hotter below, and after the end, Su Donglai walked forward for a short time, and saw the so-called black skin.

He tried it with his feet first, touched it with his hands, it was very hot, and for safety, he dragged the rope hanging from the top and dragged it on his hand, and then slowly looked for it on the black hard shell.

Soon, Su Donglai found a white spot, embedded in the black stone skin, but it could be seen clearly.

Gently pull out the kitchen knife, on the edge slightly larger than the white, gently stroke, gradually deeper and deeper, until finally, the kitchen knife thrust down sharply, flying out of a large rock.

The rock flew in an arc, and fell into the puddle that had been seen in advance next to it, and a thick water vapor suddenly appeared, Su Donglai hurried over to look, and after the falling rock cooled and contracted, the white rhenium crystal suddenly stood out, and after smashing the outer rock with the back of the knife, a white object the size of a fist was exposed.

Now I don't have time to care about this, continue to look on the ground, and an hour later, in this narrow stone crevice, Su Donglai actually got six stones.

After packing up his things, he followed the rope and returned to the ground.
