Xing Yi walked quickly out of the valley. After a long distance, I looked back at the position just now.

This should be the middle section of a river fork on the left side of the middle and upper reaches of the reservoir, after the power plant builds a reservoir to store water, the river fork and the valley sink to the bottom of the reservoir, and the only way to look for stones in the future is to wait until the dry season, when the reservoir shrinks and the valley is revealed, there is a chance.

Xing Yi then thought that the opening time of the Strange Stone Expo in the province should be five days later.

The gentleman surnamed Hong sent "Fighting Yuntian" to participate in the second session.

In other words, the surnamed Hong has not yet met Bloodstone, and is still running around and toiling in the ravine...... And on my side, by chance, in this deep unknown valley, I was lucky to meet it.

Xing Yi left the valley, returned the same way, and joined him at the place where Wen Qiyi found the nest of the red-bellied bird......

Back at the hydropower plant, Xing Yi asked the old carpenter to come forward that night, mobilized the small village to go down to the valley with him, and worked from dark to midnight, with the light of the flashlight, a total of more than 100 stones were moved, the big ones were like buckets, and the smallest ones were like eating bowls.

The stones were placed in the cave behind the old carpenter's house, where the family stored the potatoes.

The cave was about the size of a house, with stones piled up and hollow feet, and the old carpenter piled up some bud grain stalks and sorghum stalks at the entrance of the cave, which ordinary people could not find.

Xing Yi squatted inside, with a flashlight tied to his chest, examining the stones one by one, looking at them from different angles, hoping to find the shocking fighting Yuntian.

Busy for three hours and didn't find it.

The old carpenter stood behind him and watched quietly as he fiddled with the stones.

He asked the old carpenter, what was the name of the valley?

The old carpenter shook his head, he didn't know either.

The valley has no name, and the surname Hong was interviewed by reporters, saying that his stone came from a place called Hongshigou, which should be caused by the stone later, and now the stone has not yet come out, so the valley and the fork can only be obscure.

He chose the toad-shaped stone, washed it with water, and dried it.

"Like a toad?" He asked the old carpenter.

"It's like, but it's the root of its tail, and it's too small."

The upper part of the red hamo stone is fine, but the upper part of the tail, but there is some extra stuff, which is cleaned with a toothbrush, showing a bunch of ideas the size of rapeseed.

Pick with a bamboo stick, pry with wire, can't take it down, the small idea is native to the toad, it is a part of its body, after cleaning, the pigment of the small idea is more deep.

There is no way, forcibly removing these small ideas will inevitably cause a scar on the tail of this toad, which will affect the whole, so I have to give up.

"Washing it is like an egg laid by a toad." The old carpenter said.

He told the old carpenter that the stone was going to be sent to the province, where a strange stone fair was being held, and he was going to send it to the experts there to evaluate it.

He pulled a root from the pile of wood that the old carpenter had gathered, put the stone on it, and made a gesture, saying, "I will ask you to help you carve a pedestal and put it like this." ”

The old carpenter thought and asked, "Then what style do you want me to carve?" ”

Xing Yi said: "It's up to you to imagine." ”

"When?"

"The sooner the better, and I'll take it to the province the day after tomorrow."

The old carpenter stared at the stone for a while, and then he had an idea, and began to put his hands down.

In order not to hinder the old carpenter, Xing Yi returned to the hut, and he had to think about where to find someone to borrow money to pay for moving stones.

After a tiring day, the sleepiness quickly came up, and before I could figure out who to look for, my eyes closed.

The toad jumped out of the valley and crouched in front of it, and rows of small tadpoles climbed down from its back and slipped into the stream, and the big toads swam in front of it, and the small tadpoles followed in a line, and they could not see the tail at a glance.

This is the sweetest sleep in half a month, after waking up relaxed, to see the progress of the old carpenter's work, the pedestal in the old carpenter's hands, has been formed.

The old carpenter's idea was a small stream, rippling in the microwave, and the red stones were embedded in it, like a toad swimming in the stream, and the little ideas on its back were soaked in water and came to life.

Xing Yi's eyes lit up, the scene in the dream flashed, and then a scene popped up, and four words were gradually introduced: endlessly.

Well, that's the name of the stone.

He muttered, "Well, now, no matter what 30,000, it's worth 20,000." ”

"What did you say?" The old carpenter asked.

He said, "With your pedestal, there must be a bid for this stone." ”

"You're saying someone paid for it?"

"Yes, I'm sure of that."

The old carpenter shook his head again and again: "What is the use of spending so much money to buy a stone?" He must have taken the wrong medicine. ”

Xing Yi smiled and asked the old carpenter to carve the base a little deeper, so that the stone could be embedded more steadily.

He was going to see Wen Qiyi now.

He first told Wen Qiyi that there was a place, the real nest of the red-bellied bird, and he could see it clearly, there were five speckled eggs in it, which were found when he went to hunt birds last time, and it should have been out of the shell when he calculated the time, and it would be interesting to take the birds back and raise them. I don't know if you like it or not,

Wen Qiyi said: "The birdcage in my office is specially used to raise small birds, and it has been empty for more than a year. Where is this nest of birds, you take me quickly. ”

Xing Yi said: "It's too early to go now, it will alarm the adult birds, they are very sensitive, according to the habits of this kind of bird, they will stay away from the nest when they are alarmed, and they will not come back, and the young birds are too small, even if they are brought back to be raised in captivity, they will not survive." So you need to be patient and wait a few more days. ”

Wen Qiyi said: "Don't deceive people. ”

Xing Yi said: "I'm going to wait for you to arrange a new job for me, can I do something sorry for you at this time?" ”

"Okay, I trust you, how about we wait a week and go again?"

"It's a deal."

Then he said, "I'm sorry, I'm in trouble and I need money urgently, so think of a way to borrow some for me." ”

Wen Qiyi's eyes rolled, shrugged, patted his ass, and said, "I don't have any money on me, and I don't have anything at home." ”

"I'm not asking you to borrow, I'm asking you to help, I'm asking someone else to borrow, I won't let the borrower suffer, I pay interest and it's as high as it gets."

"What do you mean?"

"In other words, much higher than bank interest."

"How much is a lot?"

"To be specific, lend me 1,000 now, and I will pay back 1,002 for a month."

"I don't understand."

"I don't understand, right, let's put it this way, for example, if you lend me 1,000, give me 800, and deduct 200 on the spot, which is interest."

"Is the borrowed money still a thousand?"

"Of course, a thousand dollars is not a lot."

"What if it doesn't happen by then?"

"Do what you say."

"According to the rules of the trade, the interest has to be doubled."

"You know."

"It's not a question of whether you understand it or not, it's a minimum rule."

"The rules are set by people."

"Okay, no."

"Of course, who told me that I needed money urgently?"

"Then you'll have to write an IOU."

"Write."

"Okay, I'll ask if people are willing to borrow it."
