Southern Yunnan, Tao family.
Early this morning, the six members of the Tao family stayed in the yard, formally dressed and humble, as if they were waiting for some important person to visit.
The uncle is the most serious, not only because the other party is his savior, but also because of the psychological changes of the reshaping of the three views. After he was cured, he became crazily obsessed with metaphysics, and even worshiped true ascetics infinitely.
"Brother Yu, who is coming today?"
After waiting for a while, twelve-year-old Tao Tong couldn't help asking.
"It is said that he is an ancestor-level figure, in short, he is very powerful."
Tao Yu's expression was delicate. When he was in contact, there was obviously a suppressed, uh, feeling of suppressing laughter on the other end of the phone
Oh no no, I must have heard wrong!
"Old Ancestor? Then he must be very old, shall we call him Grandpa?" Thirteen-year-old Tao Yi was also curious.
"Of course we'll call him Patriarch first. If he's kind, we'll call him Grandpa again." Tao Tong, who was smarter than his elder sister, replied quite proudly.
"It's not enough to have a good temper. Cultivators are different from ordinary people. No matter what the other party is, we must be respectful and avoid unnecessary trouble." The uncle immediately reprimanded.
"Oh, I see!" The two children looked at each other and curled their lips at each other.
"Didi!"
After a while, finally a car came from a distance and slowly stopped in the courtyard. The six people immediately solemnly arranged their clothes and greeted the honored guests.
And as the car door opened, patter, a beautiful red high-heeled shoe fell to the ground. Then, with a light touch of the toe, it flew off the car like a blazing flame.
"Hey! What are you doing standing in a row together? Exercise between classes?"
Greetings, old, old... poof!
A word came to Tao Yu's mouth, and he swallowed it back abruptly, and even swallowed a mouthful of feces-flavored chocolate, his facial features twisted into a ball. The uncle and aunt were also very surprised, feeling various constipation.
"Wow!"
The two children didn't think too much, opened their mouths and called out, rushed over and said cheerfully, "Sister Xiao Jin, it's you! We thought it was an old grandfather, how did you become an old ancestor?"
"Haha, people are floating in the rivers and lakes, and the name is the most important. Is this name powerful?"
Thanks to Xiao Jin's thick skin, someone else would have gone into the ground long ago. She hugged one of them with each arm, nodded to the four of them, and swaggered into the room by herself.
When she came to Tao's house with her brother-in-law back then, she knew everyone, so there was no need to be polite.
Soon, several people sat down in the living room. Tao Yu took out the spiritual tea he had given before, brewed a cup carefully, and looked at it secretly. Compared with the last time, Miss Jin's demeanor has obviously improved a lot, that kind of "wow that's amazing" feeling.
She has no leaks in gold mines, and a small success in water mines. She is closely following her sister's pace. Under normal conditions, she is quite bluffing.
What does Xiao Jin say? In fact, it's a psychopath, you don't want to guess her thoughts and actions, it's harder than Lao Gu becoming a male boss.
This time, she took a sip of her tea and said solemnly, "Tell me, what happened to the mine?"
"It's like this. After the disasters in several provinces in the southwest, Yunnan Province is similar to Guizhou Province, with forest expansion and poisonous miasma. But Yunnan Province is on the border, and the country has long been protected, and its resilience is slightly stronger. Ruili is the largest in Southwest China. At the inland port, the higher authorities have reached an agreement with Myanmar to jointly maintain the tranquility of the city, and the main urban area and neighboring towns have not suffered any losses.”
Tao Yu organized his language and explained: "Of course, there are still many places in the province affected by disasters, especially the Ailao Mountain, which has completely become a no-man's land. But not long ago, I found a rough stone in the trading market and thought It's very weird. That man is from Xinping County. He said that he took it with him when he fled. He thought he could sell it for some money. Oh, this is it... "
As he said that, he took out a piece of raw ore weighing more than ten kilograms, and cut a hole to reveal the off-white jade material inside.
Xiao Jin picked up her hand and probed into the interior with her spiritual sense. Then, a layer of black and purple thunder light appeared in the palm of her hand, wrapping the ore like a fine net.
The torpedoes were like small tentacles peeling off the skin, and the crushed stone powder kept falling. In the blink of an eye, the outer shell was peeled off, revealing a complete, irregular piece of jade.
"Nuanyu? It really is Nuanyu!"
Tao Yu was very surprised, and said: "There are very few warm jade mines in southern Yunnan, and they have been hollowed out long ago. Most of them are jadeite jadeite. I couldn't believe it when I cut them before."
Jade can be divided into cold and warm, which is mainly regarded as color and texture.
The warm jade is smooth and delicate, soft and shiny, and it feels very comfortable when it cools in the hand before warming it up. Cold jade usually refers to jadeite, which is cold and hard in tone.
While Xiao Jin was playing with the jade, ten white and slender fingers gently rubbed the foreskin, it became warmer and hotter, and finally it became greasy, as if it was about to flow out of oil.
"Huh?"
She played for a while, and suddenly there was a gleam of joy in her eyes, and she said: "This is not an ordinary warm jade, it should have the effect of calming the mind, and wearing it with you is good for practice."
"That's great, we have another treasure." Tao Yu has a strong sense of substitution for Phoenix Mountain.
"Where is that mountain?" Xiao Jin asked.
"It's near Xinping County, and no mines have been found before."
"I'll go to investigate first. If there are more reserves, you will formally purchase the mining rights."
"Will the authorities agree?" Tao Yu worried.
"Tsk!"
Xiao Jin smacked her lips, with an unteachable virtue, said: "You just say that you are from Phoenix Mountain, and the big deal is to give them a few tons every year."
"Oh, I see!"
Tao Yu sneered, there was no way, the traditional businessman's concept could not be changed for a while. They were talking, and the two little guys, Tao Tong and Tao Yi, were staring at each other the whole time, and they actually thought that the young lady was super handsome and attractive.
You are from Phoenix Mountain!
Wow, maybe this is the boss!
…
Ailao Mountain is located in the central part of Yunnan Province, starting from Chuxiong in the north and reaching Luchun in the south, with a total length of about 500 kilometers. The highest peak is Damoyan Peak in Xinping County, with an altitude of 3166 meters.
Now, with the Ailao Mountains as the axis, it radiates for hundreds of miles. The villages in this large area are withered, strange beasts are overgrown, and thousands of miles are uninhabited.
And in this vast and desolate wilderness, a convoy unexpectedly appeared, driving on the empty road. There are jeeps and heavy trucks loaded with various exploration equipment.
There were a lot of people on this trip, no matter whether they were driving or not, they kept moving their eyes in various ways, for fear that a alienated beast would come out of nowhere.
This place is recognized as a death penalty area, if the money is not in place, and there is a guarantee of a real escort, they will not come to die. Even so, most people are worried because they don't know who is the real person.
There is no one who wears Taoist robes, no one with a gray beard, but there is a girl who looks so beautiful... Damn, it doesn't look like anyone!
It is said that the convoy headed towards Xinping County in an orderly manner without rush or delay. Perhaps it was luck that no accidents occurred along the way. But halfway through, I heard a cry of "咻" from the sky.
Immediately afterwards, there was a chaotic sound of hula hula, like the flapping of wings, but two strange birds were staring at the convoy.
"Windbird!"
Someone immediately yelled, his face turned pale with fright.
This kind of bird has long been included in the "New Book of Mountains and Seas". It is small in size and appears as a pair of male and female. Like the flashing wild boar, they also mutated into a skill: they can carry several wind blades and attack from a distance.
There are even on-site photos on the APP, and a Wuling Hongguang has been neatly cut open.
So as soon as they appeared, everyone tensed up, and in the next second, they felt the ground shake again, and dust and smoke rose up not far away, revealing the figures of five or six alienated serows.
He has black hair all over his body, thick limbs, and a huge body. He is running and jumping, and he is approaching at a very fast speed.
"It's over!"
Everyone was ashamed, there were strange beasts in the sky and on the ground, and there was no way to escape. And the two birds screamed a few times, as if they were about to grab food from the serows, and rushed to the sky above the convoy in the blink of an eye. Just as they were about to launch the wind blade, they heard:
"boom!"
"boom!"
With two muffled sounds, wow! A large amount of blood spurted out from the broken neck of the bird, like a rain of blood, splashing on the roof and windows of the car.
"ah!"
One person yelled like crazy, but there was no movement after a few seconds, and he looked boldly, only to see two headless bird corpses lying on the side of the road, like garbage that was discarded at will.
"ah!!!"
Immediately afterwards, everyone in the convoy yelled, and the man poked his head out quickly, dumbfounded.
I saw a huge ancient seal flying to the front, smashed down, then turned up again, quickly shrunk, and returned to a certain car. Look at those serows again, their flesh and blood turned into mud, not even scum left.
"Fan, Patriarch Fantian!"
Thinking of the real person's name introduced earlier, this person couldn't help muttering to himself, fascinated leisurely.
…
Night, Xinping.
This small county town is already deserted. The desolate and desolate streets and the square fountains filled with water vaguely record the traces of the people who used to be.
The county seat is surrounded by mountains, and the trees in the mountains have expanded, encroaching on part of the urban area, and even the buildings are protruding with a few branches. Everyone found a hotel and stayed together. The previous panic completely dissipated, and it was a great sense of excitement and excitement.
The entrance of this hotel has been blocked by soil pillars protruding from the ground, and there are also branches covering the windows, which is said to be called Wuxing Taoism. When safety is ensured, they are naturally in the mood to chat, and what they are talking about is undoubtedly the ancestor, oh no, fairy.
When everyone found out that the girl was a real person, their reaction was like this: (╯°Д°)╯︵┻━┻!!!
Fuck, this world of cultivating immortals can do it! Without fluttering sleeves, she came out wearing jeans and sneakers. Although there are some peacekeeping, but once you accept this setting, wow, why are you still looking forward to it
They were discussing in private, and in the largest suite, Xiao Jin was asking Tao Yu.
Tao Yu seemed inexplicably nervous, because someone's style of painting had changed, and he felt completely different from being at home.
"I said, Lao Tao, do you know anything about Ailao Mountain?"
"Uh, I know more or less."
"Then let me ask you something."
Xiao Jin swiped forward, her eyes were black and bright, and turned into a cheese cat emoji, "Hey, do you know Li Runzhi's treasure?"
