Using flying skills, Yang Qi's speed was much faster than that of an airplane. Soon, the two of them arrived at the mineral vein where the lair of the Flame Eye Demon Snake was located.
The soldiers here were not unfamiliar with Yang Qi, so they were not too surprised when they saw Yang Qi.
"Mr. Yang, the master has already instructed that if you need anything, just let me know." The middle-aged man in charge of the camp said in not very standard Chinese.
"If there's anything you need, I'll let you know."
Yang Qi nodded slightly. Although there were fewer soldiers near the mine, there were more simple tents. After all, there was a priceless jade mine underground, and the Naichai family would never give up.
“What’s going on here?”
The Jade King looked at the unrecognizable mountain, which looked like the land burned by fire, and frowned. If he hadn't seen the signs of the armed forces of the Naichai family, he would have doubted whether he had come to a mine. After all, he had personally surveyed this mine. Although it would change after development, the scene before him was clearly not development, but destruction.
"A huge creature came out from the ground before, and this camp was destroyed." Yang Qi sighed.
He also knew from Naichai before that there were 300 people in this camp, but only eight of them survived in the end, and the rest all died because of the Flame-Eyed Demon Snake!
Giant creature
The corners of the Jade King's mouth twitched fiercely. If he had not seen Yang Qi's flying ability with his own eyes, he would never have believed such words.
Is this still the Earth I am familiar with
The Jade King smiled bitterly in his heart, because he knew that Yang Qi would not lie to him about this matter, but the giant creature still overturned his cognition. He suddenly realized that he had lived in vain for decades. Compared with the experience of the past two days, perhaps only when Xue Qingyan betrayed him and he almost died did he have a similar feeling.
"The topography here has completely changed. It's too difficult to find clues from the ground." The Jade King sighed lightly. He chose to come here this time because he wanted to see with his own eyes what Yang Qi said. Only in this way could he make a more accurate judgment. However, the situation on the scene was beyond his expectations.
"It's okay, we can go underground." Yang Qi said nonchalantly.
Underground
Escape underground
The Jade King smiled bitterly. If he had such means, finding jade veins would undoubtedly be a simple task. He only needed to go underground and investigate in the places he suspected.
"In that case, I'll have to trouble Mr. Yang." The Jade King smiled indifferently. Having experienced flying before, he was not so surprised about burrowing underground.
Wow~
Yang Qi moved his hand, and the Qinghong Sword appeared out of thin air, spinning like a drill. At the same time, he wrapped the Emerald King with his Yuanli and drilled into the lair of the Flame-eyed Demon Snake.
Although Yang Qi's underground escape method was somewhat mysterious, it was similar to a drilling method and was easier for the Jade King to understand than flying.
"Mr. Yang, let's go to the mine first." said the Jade King.
Yang Qi nodded slightly, then changed direction slightly and went directly into the collapsed mine. Although the Naichai family's actions were not slow, the equipment had not been delivered yet, so the collapsed mine had not been dug up yet.
The Jade King took out a small flashlight from his body and immediately said to Yang Qi, "Mr. Yang, you don't need to protect me now. I must personally visit the mine to determine the situation of the vein."
"You want to have personal contact?"
Yang Qi was stunned and looked at the Jade King in surprise. It was the first time he knew how the Jade King determined the mineral veins.
"That's right. Only by keeping your feet on the ground can you truly understand the situation of the mine." The Jade King nodded slightly and continued, "If my legs are not restored, my confidence in betting on the mine will be reduced by at least 20%!"
hiss~
Yang Qi took a deep breath. He originally thought that his legs would at most affect the Jade King's life and actions. However, he did not expect that his legs could actually affect the Jade King's judgment of the mineral veins.
"Brother Yushan, how can we identify the jade veins underground?" Yang Qi couldn't help but ask curiously.
Nowadays, Jade King is not the only one in the jade industry who has gambled on mineral veins, but Jade King is the only one who is recognized as being able to gamble on mineral veins. Betting on mineral veins and knowing how to gamble on mineral veins seem to be only one word different, but in fact there is a world of difference between them.
After hearing this, the Jade King was silent for a moment before speaking, "I really can't teach others about this. Intuition is the biggest reason."
Intuitive
Yang Qi was stunned, and nodded slightly. He did not doubt what the Jade King said. In fact, the Jade King's gambling stone level was only at the master level, which was limited compared to other gambling stone masters. The reason why the Jade King was called the Jade King was because his achievements in jade veins were unmatched. This was the greatest confidence of the Jade King.
What Yang Qi did not expect was that the biggest reason why the Jade King gambled on the mineral veins was actually intuition. However, as a practitioner, he knew very well what this intuition was. It was actually an instinct based on accumulated experience, an instinct of the body and consciousness.
"Originally, my gambling skills were only at the Grandmaster level, but perhaps because I have been exposed to jade since I was a child and have seen jade more often than I have seen people, I have an instinctive intuition about jade. Once, the Naichai family asked me to gamble on a vein, so I gave it a try. When the jade vein was discovered, I seemed to have an epiphany, and after that, gambling on jade veins was like a fish in water." The Jade King had a calm face and continued, "Back then, that evil disciple learned from me, and the most important thing was the secret skill of gambling on veins. Unfortunately, I didn't know how to teach him, and in the end he was bitten by this ungrateful wolf and almost died."
Can it only be understood but not expressed in words
Hearing what the Jade King said, Yang Qi thought to himself that this kind of situation was not uncommon in the cultivation world, but in the world of ordinary people, it was like a legend. Yang Qi did not expect that the Jade King's attainments in jade had reached this level. In terms of the level of jade alone, the Jade King had definitely surpassed the Grandmaster level.
After the Jade King used a flashlight to explore the mine, he said to Yang Qi, "It's almost done, let's go to the next place."
Yang Qi moved his hand, and a stream of energy wrapped around the Emerald King. He then activated the Qinghong Sword and headed towards the lair of the Flame-eyed Demon Snake. After a moment, the two of them arrived at the location of the stone pillar.
Feeling the abundant vitality of heaven and earth, the Jade King suddenly felt an indescribable comfort. He kept saying in amazement, "I didn't expect that there would be such a place underground. Even though it is deep underground, I feel extremely comfortable, as if I were in a paradise."
“This place is not only a paradise on earth, but also a perfect place for practitioners to practice. It is because of this environment that the giant creature has the power to move mountains and seas.” Yang Qi said in a deep voice.
The Jade King nodded slightly. Although he didn't know about the vitality of heaven and earth, he knew that this place was extraordinary, especially the stone pillar in the center, which gave him an extremely strange feeling. (To be continued)
