The stone walls of the cave shine brightly.

If you look closely, it turns out to be inlaid with hundreds of gemstones.

These gems are arranged in a neat and neat manner.

Each one exudes a white glow.

The brightness of the white mang, almost the power of a small flashlight.

The whole stone wall is like a wall of lights!

Chongning leaned over and said in surprise, "Night Pearl? ”

That's right, these orb gems are rare pearls of the night.

Duan Jingzhi was also taken aback, and said, "This is the Pearl of the Night!" ”

The night pearl is a rare gemstone, which was called Suihou pearl, hanging pearl, bright moon pearl and so on in ancient times.

This gemstone is a luminescent substance from the Earth's crust that has been formed by volcanic eruptions and then accumulated by tens of millions of years of geological movements.

There are often yellow-green, light blue, orange-red and other colors, with incandescent as the top.

The most well-known night pearl is the one buried in the mouth of the Empress Dowager Cixi.

It was an almost spherical, one-and-a-half-pound Night Pearl rough stone.

The Pearl of Night was extremely popular with the royal family, especially during the Tang and Ming dynasties.

Empress Wu Zetian once gave Xuanzong the Night Pearl to illuminate a room.

In the palace of the Ming Dynasty, there are several night pearls, and the night is as bright as a candle.

It can be seen that the night pearl is extremely precious.

Chongning had only seen it in the literature before, but he didn't expect to see the real thing here.

However, the night pearl here is not very large, and it is the size of a pebblestone.

But it's important to have a lot of them.

An entire wall is estimated to be 300 pieces.

If it was somewhere else, I thought it was a small light bulb.

There are slender copper pipes in between.

Chongning stretched out his hand and slowly touched it.

Streams of strong spiritual power poured into the body.

At the same time, the golden mangs of the debut were flashing.

The moment was extremely fast.

Duan Jingzhi and the others didn't pay too much attention to it, thinking that it was the light of the Night Pearl itself.

The spiritual power was too abundant, and it directly shook Chongning back a few steps.

Duan Jingzhi was startled and hurriedly supported him, "What's wrong?" Electrified? ”

It looked like he had been electrocuted.

Chongning hurriedly laughed, "No, a stone has been scratched, it's okay." ”

He glanced at the palm prints of his golden hand.

On the ancient seal soil characters, gold is suspended.

Earth-based treasures!

Each one is a treasure level!

It can be seen that these are genuine night pearls.

Duan Jingzhi asked, "Are these really the pearls of the night?" ”

She saw Chongning take a closer look, so she asked.

With the identification of the golden hand, Chongning is naturally very convinced.

"Yes, this is the night pearl for the royal family of the Ming Dynasty."

Duan Jingzhi was very happy, and her eyes lit up.

Girls have no resistance to glowing gemstones.

"Really, that's great!"

As she spoke, she reached for the buckle.

But the stone wall and the night pearl seem to be integrated.

No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't get it down, and she couldn't help but be a little discouraged.

Chongning was also immersed in the satisfaction of spiritual power.

With such a wave of spiritual power supply, the spiritual power of the entire Qianjinshou naturally reached its peak.

In the dark hole, it can be regarded as having some confidence and security.

Duan Jingzhi said angrily: "Brother Ning, look at it, why can't you get it down!" ”

Only then did Chongning come to his senses, "Oh, I'll take a look." ”

If it's raw ore, it's hard to get it down, and you have to use tools.

The rocks here are all sea rocks.

Besides, the arrangement is so tight and regular, it can't be raw ore.

Chongning took a look and found that the inlay of pearls and rocks in the night was extremely ingenious.

In the crevices, there is also glue.

Chongning's eyes widened, "Fish maw glue!" ”

Duan Jingzhi asked, "What is that?" ”

Chongning buckled the thin layer of glue with his hand and groaned.

Fish maw gum is an ancient method of gluing.

Before there was no chemical glue, it has always been a very mainstream glue.

It is a glue made from the swim bladder of fish, with extremely high viscosity, known as the 10,000-year prison.

The production process of this glue is very complicated.

First of all, select the best swim bladder and heat it to boil the gelatin.

Then there is the smashing of the swim bladder, which is the most critical.

There is a saying that a hero can't smash two or two bladders, which means that it is not easy to smash bladders.

Put the swim bladder in an iron pot and pound it continuously with a small wooden hammer to make a paste.

This physical work, it is not easy for adults to sour and numb for a few minutes.

A young and strong young man, a day's work is only two or two.

And in the process of smashing the glue, the viscosity will continue to increase.

Often smashed and smashed, the glue will stick the iron pot, and turn over the pot to destroy the glue.

Again, you can't stick to dust, otherwise all your work will be wasted.

All in all, it's a big challenge with a high level of physical and mental concentration.

This is still the ordinary fish maw glue.

The fish bleaching glue for the royal family is even more complicated.

Rhino horn, deer bone, musk, peach gum and agate are added.

Whether it is the manufacturing process, or the choice of materials, it is the best.

Therefore, the strength of this glue is far beyond imagination.

This is no different from the natural raw ore.

The pearl of the night and the rock are almost integrated.

Without special tools, you can't get it down at all.

If you force it, it will only destroy the pearl and stone.

Duan Jingzhi heard that it would be damaged, so she withdrew her hand and stopped moving.

Looking at the night pearls on the wall, and couldn't get it, she was very unwilling.

The source of the light comes from these night pearls.

The attention of the two of them just now was on the Night Pearl, and they didn't care about the weird guy at all.

At this moment, the strange man was standing not far away.

Chongning walked over and took a look, his face surprised.

It's not an exit, it's a sealed stone wall on the other side.

Under the stone wall, there is an oval-shaped natural lake.

Duan Jingzhi also walked over, her face a little disappointed.

There was no road ahead, and at the end, there was only a lake.

Obviously, this lake is the uppermost part of the underground river.

It is from here that the boiling river originates and flows down.

Chongning was also very disappointed, originally thinking that he would be able to find a way.

Unexpectedly, there was a dead end ahead.

Duan Jingzhi's eyebrows moved slightly, and she said suspiciously: "No, if there is a dead end ahead, where did all those dry firewood and game come from?" ”

Chongning's eyes also lit up, "Yes, it can't be in the underground river." ”

Thinking of this, Duan Jingzhi gestured to the strange man.

The weirdo should have understood, but his movements are very incomprehensible.

His hand pointed to the lake with one hand and made the shape of a dog planing with the other.

Chongning Xuan frowned, not quite understanding, "Could it be that under the lake, there is a roast chicken?" ”

There are fish under the water, that's for sure. If you have chickens, it's impossible.

Aquatic chickens?

Or, wasn't it the chicken they were eating just now?

Just an aquatic animal that resembles a chicken?

Just when Chongning was still thinking nonsense.

Plop!

The strange man jumped straight into the water, making a splash.

Chongning and Duan Jingzhi looked at each other and stood on the shore.

Duan Jingzhi said: "Shall we follow? ”

Chongning looked at the ripples of the lake, and the strange man didn't come up for a long time.

"Wait!"

Before the words fell, there was a bang, and there was a strange noise on the lake!
