Chapter 028: There is another mystery
"Elder Crab, I have selected six coral trees from the treasure house to decorate the family room, and the others are not needed, you can register them!" Out of the treasure house, Jiang Yuan came to the crab chief and said.
"What? You chose the coral tree? The coral tree is not a treasure, it is just used for decoration in ordinary homes, but the sea dragon saliva is the most valuable thing in it, why, didn't you take it?" The crab chief was puzzled by Jiang Yuan's choice of the most ordinary coral tree, and reminded him to choose the sea dragon saliva.
"Don't worry, Elder Crab, the head of the Sea Dragon Saliva Jiang family has taken it away, and the rest is not worth it, so he chose six coral trees, that's all!" Crab Mud explained, feeling a little embarrassed in his heart, the Sea Crab Clan is a small clan after all, and there is no important collection.
"That's it, Master Jiang, you see that this coral tree is a mundane thing, and there are a few night pearls in the Crab King Cave, which is very good, why don't you change it, what do you think?" The crab chief stopped Jiang Yuan from taking the coral tree, and it can be seen that the Chaos Mirror felt that there must be another mystery in the coral tree, otherwise the crab chief would not be so prevaricated.
"Oh, is it?" As he spoke, Jiang Yuan put the six coral trees on the ground, and then picked up the coral tree that the Chaos Mirror thought had a mystery, and said, "Crab Mud, what about this coral tree, I want this one, and put the rest in the treasure house!"
"Master Jiang, this, this?" The crab chief's face changed instantly, and he sighed infinitely in his heart, this is fate!
Jiang Yuan motioned to the crab mud patriarch to go to the treasure house to put things, and he said to the crab chief: "Elder crab, wait for me to take out the contents later, and I will come to you again!" After speaking, he stopped talking, and the crab chief knew that this matter had been exposed, so he stopped talking, and his lonely expression was beyond words.
After the crab mud patriarch came out, he and Jiang Yuan left directly, planning to go to check the place where there might be a water essence gold mine.
The place where there may be a water essence gold mine, located in the northwest direction of the sea crab family, near the north direction of Linhai Town, is a place that belongs to the sleeping golden toad family, the sleeping golden toad is a small group, generally living at the junction of large rivers into the sea, the power is not large, the strength is in the middle, stronger than the sea crab family, weaker than the deep sea family.
It is recorded in the book that the sleeping golden toad feeds on gold and stone, the amount of food is not large, and it is not picky, it eats any metal, but the digestion is extremely slow, and it spends most of its life sleeping, but once it fights, it is like gold and stone all over its body, and it is extremely strong, and it is difficult to subdue it by ordinary means. Its excrement, the golden toad liquid, is also a treasure belonging to the gold system, but if ordinary people take away some golden toad liquid without alarming the sleeping golden toad, it will not wake up.
About half an hour later, Jiang Yuan and the others came to the territory of the sleeping golden toad, that is, the mouth of the Zijin River into the Tianji Sea, there is a Purple Mountain at the mouth of the sea, hundreds of meters high, it is said to be the Purple Mountain, in fact, it is an ordinary iron and stone mine, rich in ordinary soft iron, after the rain, the iron and stone rust, like purple gold, the name of the Purple Mountain comes from this. This soft iron is of no use to cultivators or even ordinary mortals, but for the Sleeping Golden Toad, this is the food that no one fights for, and the location is just right, and this Purple Mountain is also used as the habitat of the Sleeping Golden Toad.
The Purple Mountain is high into the clouds, the mountain is full of caves, it looks dense, like a beehive, in each cave, there is at least one sleeping golden toad, the cave is slightly higher, the outside of the cave is slightly lower, there is a pit outside the cave, the golden toad liquid of the sleeping golden toad flows into the pit outside the cave under the intentional guidance of those treasure hunters, and it is very convenient for people to take away the golden toad liquid. The edge of each cave is marked, as if someone had occupied it, and it is also a very interesting place.
Crab mud told Jiang Yuan that this may be the place where the water essence gold mine is located, it is located at the intersection of the underwater sea water and the river water of the Purple Mountain, there is a large whirlpool at the intersection, the whirlpool is extremely powerful, when the crab mud followed his father to be a guest here, he had seen a piece of gold essence stone, which was strangled by the vortex and turned into powder, not to mention the flesh.
And just above this whirlpool, at the junction of the Purple Mountain and the whirlpool, there is a hole, which is generally invisible, only when the Purple River and the Tianji Sea are at low tide, it will appear in front of people, but it is only the time for tea, and in the most coincidental time, the most coincidental thing is to let the crab mud father and son see the mystery, and the sleeping golden toad also knows that there is water essence gold in it, but they know that once they enter, with their temperament, I am afraid that they will never be able to come out again in this life.
When the crab mud introduced all this, the two of them came to this whirlpool, and the crab mud guided Jiang Yuan, just about two meters above the whirlpool, there was a hole, and the water essence gold mine was there.
Jiang Yuan took out two stones from the bottom of the water, one was thrown in from the whirlpool, only to see that the stones instantly turned into powder and disappeared, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly, how is this good, once you enter the hole and are transferred into the whirlpool, I am afraid that you can't even see the meat mud.
Raising his hand again, another stone was thrown in from two meters above the whirlpool, and there was no sound of the stone colliding with the Purple Mountain in the water, on the contrary, after stopping for dozens of seconds, there was a faint sound of a series of hitting the ground, and it seemed that the stone should have entered the hole.
Jiang Yuan stared at the whirlpool, sighing in his heart, he didn't expect that this whirlpool was like a devouring demon, it seemed to be bland, but it was actually a murderous secret, and a careless accident would end up being shattered.
"It's a high tide, retreat quickly!" The cultivator who was collecting the golden toad liquid on the Purple Mountain shouted, and all the people immediately put away the collected golden toad liquid, and hurriedly left, or climbed towards the high place of the Purple Mountain.
The crab mud also signaled Jiang Yuan to prepare to leave, Jiang Yuan glanced at the vortex, shook his head, and was about to leave, when the first wave rushed towards the Purple Mountain, just when the wave reached the Purple Mountain, the vortex actually temporarily stopped rotating, and then, something incredible happened, the vortex actually reversed.
At this time, all the people either climbed towards the Purple Mountain Mountain, or looked at the tide wave after wave in the distance, no one noticed that the direction of the whirlpool rotation changed, at this time, Jiang Yuan took out a Qi and Blood Pill from the storage bag and threw it into the whirlpool, only to see the Qi and Blood Pill spinning down the whirlpool, and when it reached the center of the whirlpool, suddenly a strange force was generated inside, and the Qi and Blood Pill shot out from the center of the whirlpool, spraying to a high place, Jiang Yuan waved his sleeves, blocking the path of the Qi and Blood Pill to continue flying upward, and fell into Jiang Yuan's hands。
I really didn't expect that this vortex really had another mystery, Jiang Yuan didn't even think about it anymore, a piece of water essence gold sprayed out from the vortex, Jiang Yuan's old trick was repeated, he waved his sleeves, put away the piece of water essence gold, and the most important thing is that no one else noticed the appearance of this piece of water essence gold, because the water essence gold is relatively heavy, as soon as it is out of the vortex jet, the force is weakened, and the water essence gold will immediately sink to the bottom of the water near the vortex, and because it is close to the vortex, no one will find this phenomenon.
Because of the reversal of the vortex, the vortex is not in danger for the time being, Jiang Yuan plans to sink to the bottom of the water to see if there is a large amount of water essence gold near the vortex, if there is, it proves his guess, if not, it means that this is just an accidental event, naturally he can only leave helplessly, and wait until his strength is high, and then make plans. Thinking about it, when Jiang Yuan's strength is high, can he still look at this water essence gold? It is estimated that it is enough.
"Crab mud, you wait for me on the Purple Mountain, I'll come when I go!" Jiang Yuan finished speaking, looked around, no one paid attention to him, took the opportunity to sink to the bottom, the waves raged, and in an instant, Jiang Yuan's figure was covered without a trace, except for the crab mud, no one noticed that there was one person missing in the waves.
Jiang Yuan went downstream along the vicinity of the whirlpool, due to the high waves and the turbulence of the river water, this time it was the most difficult diving since Jiang Yuan could swim, however, today's Jiang Yuan is different from the previous life, the water division technique is frequently used, diving to the bottom of the water, naturally it is not a problem, and then the faint light, Jiang Yuan saw that the root of this vortex is at the mouth of a cave, it seems that it should be connected to the entrance of the water essence gold mine that the crab mud said, but how it is specific, it has to be explored.
When you get to the bottom of the sea, the bottom of the sea is very calm, and you can hardly feel the waves on the sea, and it is as calm as if you are in a swimming pool. At the root of the whirlpool, there are a lot of water essence gold, at least tens of thousands of dollars, Jiang Yuan raised his hand, after putting away dozens of pieces of water essence gold, he could no longer collect it, it can be seen that there is not only a limit on the size of the space in this storage bag, but also a limit on the size of the weight, this kind of problem, Jiang Yuan is the first time to encounter this kind of problem.
Jiang Yuan's storage bag also has a few storage conch, using the storage conch to hold water essence gold, a storage conch can actually hold hundreds of pieces of water essence gold, it is estimated that the weight of each storage conch is more than 100 times that of the storage bag, Conch Chun did not tell Jiang Yuan this, I am afraid that Conch Chun himself does not know this difference. However, Jiang Yuan found out that once the storage conch was put in, it couldn't be put in the storage bag, so it could only be carried in his arms.
When he came out of the whirlpool, the time only took a few minutes, and at this time, the sea was still full of waves, surging, and a huge and incomparable suction force shrouded Jiang Yuan, this suction came very cleverly, so that Jiang Yuan did not expect it at all, just when Jiang Yuan felt that the suction was coming from the direction of the water essence gold mine, Jiang Yuan's entire body was sucked in by the inexplicable suction.
When Jiang Yuan opened his eyes again, he saw a cave, and the end of the cave should be connected to other places, because there was a wind entering from the entrance of the cave, and Jiang Yuan was swept into this cave by this strange wind just now.
Take out the night pearl in the storage bag, the night pearl instantly illuminates the entire cave, at this time, Jiang Yuan saw the situation of the entire cave clearly, the cave is about twelve or thirteen meters deep, about three meters wide, the wind is raging outside, as soon as you enter the cave, you feel that there is only a breeze, compared to the outside, it is simply two worlds.
Near the end of the cave, there seemed to be a skeleton, Jiang Yuan cautiously walked towards it, under the illumination of the night pearl, nothing else was found in the cave, only the skeleton.
The skeleton's body was mutilated, kneeling, with both legs missing below the thigh, and the right arm was missing, leaving only the left arm, with a storage ring on the ring finger of the finger, and a hide on the stone in front of it, on which was a letter written with dried blood.
The letter reads: I came here to look for the golden toad liquid because of the repair of the spirit sword, and then I was insatiable, and wanted a sleeping golden toad golden pill, after a lot of trouble, I got the golden pill, but I was inhaled by a strange force here, when I passed through the vortex, the suction of the vortex wrenched my legs and right arm, and inexplicably entered here, there is no exit here, there is no other way out, there is no food, there is no aura, some are just constantly blowing wind from outside the cave, and some are just endless despair, I don't know how many days I have been in this cave, the pill is gone, the herbs are eaten, and the fatal trauma of the body makes me not live for long, I really don't know when I died, and I don't know if anyone will see this letter. Perimer is out of writing.
Jiang Yuan looked around, and sure enough, there was no passage around it, only a fist-sized tuyere, and the wind outside was blowing along the cave towards the tuyere, and it was indeed a dead place here, Jiang Yuan's heart couldn't help but sink.
