Xia Lei opened the box. Inside the box was a piece of black ore and a well-folded animal skin.
The blue ore exudes a faint blue light under the firelight, and you can vaguely see a little blue liquid flowing in the ore.
Xia Lei's eyes fell on the black ore and could no longer move away. He hadn't touched the black ore yet, but he had already felt the energy flowing in the uncomfortable world. He was familiar with that feeling because he had witnessed a similar scene in Sky City. A blue energy tree grew on the huge black rock, and then connected all the stones in the entire Sky City!
Liang Tao was also attracted. When he saw the black ore in the box, his reaction was the same as Xia Lei's. He was instantly attracted and stunned at the same time.
The two men just stared at the black ore in the box, giving the impression that what was flowing in the black ore was not pure energy, but a sexy stripper.
It took a full minute for Xia Lei to come to his senses. He took out the small piece of black ore from his pocket and compared it with the black ore in the box. He soon discovered that the small piece of black ore he took out was incomparable to the one in the box. The most intuitive difference was that the ore in the box contained a blue energy, and the one he took out The piece that came out was not there at all. This comparison is like comparing coking coal with extremely high ignition point and coal gangue. Although they are the same type of ore, their values are fundamentally different.
"How can two pieces of spiritual ore be different?" Xia Lei broke the silence.
Liang Tao then came back to his senses, "Isn't this a law of nature? Just like people are tall, short, fat and thin, there are good and bad spiritual ores. High-quality ones contain rich spiritual energy. If the quality is not good, just like the piece in your hand, it contains very little spiritual energy."
"Psychic energy?" Xia Lei said, "Is it the blue energy contained in the spiritual ore?"
"Yes, that's what we call it. The name of the Blue Moon people is similar. We named it because of the nature of this energy." Liang Tao said.
"What are the properties of this energy?"
"It's very magical. It's hard for me to describe it to you. It... This energy is like having a soul. Sometimes it can connect different species together to achieve a perfect communication. For example, you and a sheep, phosphate rock The spiritual energy contained in the stone can connect you and that sheep. Then, you will feel that you and that sheep are actually a whole, and that sheep is the same as you, it will feel that it is a part of you , and your thinking is shared, you can read the sheep’s thinking, and the sheep can also read your thinking.” Liang Tao said.
This description made Xia Lei stunned for several seconds before he came back to his senses, "What is the use of such energy?"
Liang Tao smiled bitterly, "This is only what I know, but I know that the blue moon in the sky uses this kind of energy, so the power of the giant spaceship is probably also a use of psychic energy."
In fact, Xia Lei knew what the greatest use of this energy was, because he had personally seen Stone City travel through the stars and time and space, bringing him here. So traveling through time and space and the starry sky, is this also the ability of this energy? Combined with Liang Tao's description, this kind of spiritual power seems to be omnipotent. It aroused his endless imagination. What kind of energy is it
Liang Tao said: "Brother, although I told you that I have been studying psychic energy all my life, I really don't know much about it. The lack of equipment is a big shortcoming. Of course, the only ones I have come into contact with are in your hands. It’s the first time I’ve seen such low-quality spiritual ore, but the high-quality spiritual ore in the box.”
"Is that why you took the risk and sneaked into the Stone Tribe?"
Liang Tao nodded, "Yes, it seems worth it now." He hesitated, "Can you give it to me so I can take a closer look?"
"Of course." Xia Lei reached out and grabbed the piece of spiritual ore in the box. At that moment, his brain was flooded with countless information. The information emerged in his brain, some of which were sounds, some of which were lights and shadows, and some of which were mysterious memory fragments.
His brain is like a computer monitor, playing a video content transmitted from a distant time and space. In this video, there are dry and desolate planets, heavy rains and overwhelming tsunamis, erupting volcanoes, sunny skies and forests under clear skies.
The scene then changed, and a little blue dragon appeared in his mind, full of curiosity about the world. He could feel its pleasure and tension, and everything it experienced had a weird feeling of being felt by him. It would be best if the blue dragon dies of old age, its body rots, and its body turns into nutrients to nourish a tree. The tree grew bigger and bigger and taller. The wind blew through the treetops, and the feeling of breeze blowing on his face also formed in his brain...
"Brother?" Liang Tao's voice.
boom! Xia Lei's brain was shaken again, his thinking was cut off, and he returned to reality. Everything in front of me was so real, what happened just now was like an illusion.
"Show me." Liang Tao stretched out his hand.
Xia Lei put the spirit ore in Liang Tao's hand and stared at Liang Tao closely to see his reaction.
Liang Tao turned over the small piece of spiritual ore and looked at it, but nothing happened.
Xia Lei secretly said in his heart: "What's going on? I seemed to be connected to something just now. It felt like I had turned into a desolate planet. After hundreds of millions of years, from desolation to the birth of life, Then it turned into a bird, a blue dragon and a tree... But Liang Tao didn't seem to receive the information I received. What's going on? Is all the information I received recorded by this piece of spiritual ore? It's like Is it an ancient disc?"
There is no way to imagine it, no way to get the answer.
At this time, Liang Tao put the piece of extremely high-quality spiritual ore into his trouser pocket.
Xia Lei frowned, "What are you doing?"
Liang Tao smiled and said, "Brother, you just promised, you gave it to me, it is mine now."
Only then did Xia Lei realize that what Liang Tao just said was "Can you give it to me and let me take a closer look?" If this sentence is divided into two parts, to a certain extent, he did promise to give it to him .
"I know you feel very uncomfortable, but... I'm not doing this for myself, I'm doing this for the revolutionary army." Liang Tao swept away his scoundrel appearance, revealing a rare sense of decency, "This high-quality spiritual ore It may help us develop a way to deal with Blue Moon. It is very important to the resistance. I hope you don't mind. It's useless for you to hold such a piece of spiritual ore. The most you can do is exchange it for money and women on the black market."
"Take it, stop talking so much nonsense." Xia Lei said. Although he was a little reluctant to part with the piece of spiritual ore, if it could help the resistance army deal with Lan Yue, it would be worth it.
"Brother, you are a righteous person, and I admire you." Liang Tao rubbed his hands and moved his eyes to the box containing the Blue Moon coins, "So, um... those money?"
"Take them all, just shut up." Xia Lei said.
"I like you."
Xia Lei, "..."
"I will definitely convince you to join the resistance. Also, I will tell you a secret." Liang Tao pretended to be mysterious.
"What secret?" Xia Lei's eyes have moved to the animal skins in the box.
"Our leader, Kangtu Nana is a great beauty." Liang Tao raised an orchid finger.
"If you keep saying this, I will take the money away." Xia Lei said.
Liang Tao walked towards the box containing the money, walking very quickly, as if he was afraid that Xia Lei would really regret it.
Xia Lei took out the well-folded animal skin, opened it and spread it on the stone platform.
The animal skin turned out to be a map, and it was a hand-drawn map. There are Chinese characters marked on it, as well as the scale of the map display.
It was the scale displayed on the map that shocked Xia Lei. The total area of the area it showed reached 600 million square kilometers, while the surface area of the earth was only a little over 500 million. But in terms of its shape, it is obviously just a part of a continent, like Myanmar or Laos in Asia.
There is a red line mark on the map, which extends from the center of the map to the upper right corner of the map. The upper right corner is a vast forest with an area of almost 100 million square kilometers. Moreover, part of it, this map did not fully show the forest.
In that vast forest there are two red Chinese characters - Ling Mine.
However, putting a "?" after "Spirit Mine" seems uncertain.
Xia Lei secretly said in his heart: "The box contains a piece of extremely high-quality spiritual ore, as well as this map, and this map is probably hundreds or thousands of years old. Is it a treasure hunt map from the Holy Thunder period? Such a long time , has anyone been to that forest? Has anyone found the spiritual ore?"
At this time, Liang Tao, who put the money in a bag, came over. He also saw the animal skin map. He was stunned for a moment, and then said: "My God, isn't this a map of the Border Province?"
"Borderland Province?" Xia Lei heard this for the first time.
Liang Tao said: "We are standing on the land of Border Province. This is an ancient map. It is now called Area 51. A thousand years ago, Border Province was the easternmost area of human development." He pointed. The forest in the upper right corner, "Have you seen the forest here? That is an area that humans have not developed. A thousand years ago, it was called the Dark Forest, and it still has the same name now. If the Holy Thunder does not die, the pace of human development will not be interrupted, say no We must have carved out the Dark Forest."
