Chapter 65: Under the Dark River

"Ladies and gentlemen, do you see? In this tidal hole, there is a dark river. So, if you want to find out the secrets of this tidal river, you have to go to the dark river to see!"

"Little Taoist, don't go, it's too dangerous. ”

"Yes, little Taoist, it is in the period of high tide now, and it is the time when the dark river has the most water. You just have to go down, and you have to wait for the tide to go out!"

"Little Taoist, don't go down. I just checked the information, the source of this dark river is far away at an altitude of 2,060 meters above sea level, and the 'bowl of water' is a geyser, so experts believe that the tide is caused by a geyser. ”

......

Hearing that everyone was dissuading and checking the information, Wang Xueren was very moved.

"Everyone, everyone, rest assured. Although Xiaodao is not very good at water, I will not joke about my own life. Moreover, I just went underwater to look at it, and I wouldn't be too far from the hole, and now is when the water is big, and even if I can't stay underwater, I'll only be swept outside by the current, and I won't be washed away anywhere else. ”

Although he said that, this incident also reminded Wang Xueren. When he goes out on an expedition in the future, he must bring a set of equipment that can shoot freely underwater. That way, he wouldn't have to go down in person.

But later, that's for later. This time, he still had to go into the water himself. So, he fixed the drone to the hole, then took off his coat and jumped into the dark river with only a large pants.

"Good fellow, the water is pretty cold!"

The dark river is an underground river, and there is no sunlight all year round, and the temperature is not high now, so it seems that the river is even cooler.

But this thought was also in an instant, because the river was so strong that he couldn't stabilize his body in the river. He didn't have time to think about anything else, he tried his best to stabilize his body, and the province was washed outside by the water.

"Damn, this water is too big, don't say go against the water to find the source, just if you want to stay here honestly, it's not easy!"

It took a lot of effort for Wang Xueren to stabilize his figure. But he knew it wouldn't work. Although he has great stamina, he is not an iron man after all. This current of water hits him all the time, and after a long time, he will definitely be exhausted.

"It would be nice to have a rock, just hold it, and you can stabilize your body, which is much less effort than this. Thinking of this, Wang Xueren began to touch around.

Don't look at the dark river, there is no light at all, but under Wang Xueren's heavy pupils, there is no difference between it and outside. He could see everything clearly.

"Hey, there are rocks in this dark river. It's a little smaller, but it's better than nothing!"

Seeing the stones, Wang Xueren hurriedly swam over and hugged the stones in his arms.

The stone itself is not big, that is, the size of a football, coupled with the buoyancy, Wang Xueren did not feel too heavy. However, with the stone in hand, his figure was much more stable.

I don't know how many years the stones have been washed in the dark river, and the surface is round and smooth, and it is not easy to hold it steady. In addition, the water rushes like this, and the stones will slide down.

"Think about it, it's not going to work!"

Seeing that you hit the stone and wanted to drop it, Wang Xueren hurriedly lifted it up. But when the stone went up, Wang Xueren clearly saw that there was a weak layer of light on the surface of this stone.

"What kind of luck am I, I picked up a stone in the dark river, and it turned out to be a treasure!"

It's no wonder that Wang Xueren sighed, during this time, especially after eating the old turtle, his luck was really good. It has almost reached the level of making all wishes come true and meeting treasures when you go out.

Not to mention the distance, just look at what he has seen and encountered along the way, there are both treasures and treasures, all kinds of rare and rare wonders, he can meet several in a day. For a while, Wang Xueren was a little scared, he was afraid that he would consume all this luck in one go. Then, as before, he stayed for ten years and did nothing.

"No, I'm lucky now, I should have been blessed by my ancestor Cangjie. Although he was destroyed by heavenly punishment, what he did was of great merit after all, and it is not too much for me to be a little bit of light as his descendant and successor. ”

Thinking of this, Wang Xueren was a little relieved. However, he didn't have the heart to continue to explore the cause of the high tide of the tidal river, so he walked out of the dark river with the stones.

"Little Taoist, have you found the reason for the high tide?"

"Little Taoist, why did you come out with a stone?"

......

"Ladies and gentlemen, the current down there is too great, and it's too dark inside to find out the cause of the high tide. But I found this stone inside, and I thought it should have a treasure in it, so I got it out. ”

"Little Taoist, are you confused by the dark river? It's just an ordinary stone, and there are treasures in it!"

"Even if I don't think there's a treasure in it!"

"Little Taoist, don't listen to them, I support you, you say there is a baby, then there is a baby!"

......

Seeing the commotion of the crowd, he didn't speak, but took out the wire saw from his bag and began to saw the stones.

Ordinary wire saws can sawn through stones, not to mention Wang Xueren's specially customized wire saw. It didn't take much effort for this stone to be opened by Wang Xueren with a skylight.

Although Wang Xueren was very sure that there was something in this stone, when he saw the faint red under the skylight, he was completely relieved.

"Guys, there's something in there. Wang Xueren said as he poured some water on the skylight. Now, the red is even more obvious.

"Ah, there's something in there, red. Is it red jade, or is it blood jade?"

"Don't talk nonsense if you don't know what to do upstairs, this is Shennongjia, where did the jade come from! I think it should be something like agate!"

"It's possible, I've heard people say that the famous Shennong Stone of Shennongjia is agate, and this piece may be Shennong Stone. ”

"No, Shennong stone is not like this, and the color is not so bright. I think this should be a piece of bloodstone. ”

"Yes, it could be bloodstone. I heard that Shennongjia found a kind of bloodstone, called bloodstone plum stone, which is quite precious, scarce in quantity, and difficult to mine. ”

......

In the midst of people's discussions, Wang Xueren wiped off another layer of stone skin. Now, those who know how to recognize it.

"That's right, it's bloodstone. ”

"Yes, it's bloodstone!"

......

"Hehe, I'm lucky. After going down the dark river, I got a piece of bloodstone. Saying that, Wang Xueren put the bloodstone aside, and came to the dark river again, "Since there is bloodstone here, I can't miss the trail." So, I'm going to go down again and see if I can find another one or two. ”
