Chapter 1429 Source
In the early morning, the sky looked gray.
The temperature in April has gradually become hotter, and the morning dew has wet and stones. Several spider webs falling on it are also covered with dew. A few bird songs come from the pine forest in the distance.
Hu Niu and others left the puddle and followed the dry river channel. While carefully identifying the looming river channel, they continued to search for gold ore.
This area is mountainous terrain. This dry river channel is mostly made of stones with most of the edges and corners worn away, and there are few traces of soil. However, the stones vary in size, so you must be careful when walking through them.
Zhang Yong and his dozen men were walking on flat ground. They seemed to have been accustomed to this terrain and walked quickly here. Hu Niu led Ali and others to follow closely, and also helped to find traces of gold ore among the rocks in this river.
Their move is naturally not for the value of one or two gold ores, but for this search to determine the source of the gold ore yesterday, and then to determine that there is a gold mine upstream of this dry river channel.
But what is disappointing is that it is because there are too many rocks here, or the gold ore in the puddle was not brought by the river from the upstream, and after searching for more than 200 meters, it still failed to find new gold ore.
However, this dry river channel showed more vitality. Many Manila grass emerged from the cracks of the rocks, some of which were waist-length, and some were clear water at the bottom of some deep stone pits.
Several rat deer were looking for food in the grass in the river. When they found that these uninvited guests suddenly appeared here, they immediately raised their heads and stared at them with black eyes.
Squeak...
The little golden monkey seemed to have a feinted tiger power, ran to a high stone in front, and roared at the rats and deer with their teeth and claws.
The bravery of the few rats and deer was indeed small. Seeing the little golden monkey so "fear", they ignored the difference in their bodies and fled to the distance with agility.
Seeing the increasing number of malani grass and water pits here, Zhang Yong became a little vigilant. He immediately let the two players be motivated and took the initiative to walk in front to lead the way.
"Hu Niu, look!"
Due to the reason of practicing martial arts, Ali has a strong observation ability and soon found a stone under a pile of weeds. Her beautiful face raised a stone the size of a coconut and greeted him with a slightly red face.
"Gold ore!"
Zhang Yong and others have been looking for gold ore with clear goals. When they hear the movement, they look for sounds. When they see the stone in Ali's hand, their eyes immediately shine with excitement.
The gold ore of Hu Niu yesterday was obviously different, half of this piece was golden. Although it was a cloudy day today, I felt a little dazzling and fascinating.
The most important thing is that they have found this piece of gold ore in this dry river, and undoubtedly pointing to the traces of the gold ore more clearly.
"Zhang Yong, can you be sure that there is a gold mine on it now?" Hu Niu's face immediately showed excitement, and she turned her head and looked at Zhang Yong and asked.
Zhang Yong then woke up from his excitement, but he did not dare to hold too much hope and said: "It seems that there should be a gold mine on it, I just hope that the scale of this gold mine is not too small!"
There are naturally different sizes of gold mines, and some gold mines can’t afford to make ends meet. This is also the reason why the imperial court closed many gold mines, because the harvest of the government’s mining industry could not afford to pay wages and food.
After this new discovery, everyone became more active and soon found two gold ores, and it was even more true that there was a gold mine upstream of this river.
When they found the third gold ore, Zhang Yong told everyone not to search anymore. After all, they didn’t have to care about one or two gold ore. Their target was always a big gold mine.
It was about one mile, and everyone followed this dry river to a mountain.
Unlike the mountain like a mound of soil in Wohu Mountain, the mountain suddenly seemed to rise up, and even had a mountain like spring bamboo shoots, with sparsely growing pine and cypress trees on it.
When we arrived in front of the mountain, the vegetation here seemed even more lush, and there was still a large area of wide gravel, and clusters of half-human-high Malani grass grew wildly.
Zhang Yong gave the subordinates next to him a wink, and they rushed into the weeds with machetes to clean up, but they did not see large beasts, and several golden pheasants "punched" and startled from the ground.
The advantage of Luzon is that there are no tigers and wolves here, and this mountainous terrain often has nowhere to provide enough food, so it is basically impossible to encounter large beasts.
"The source is inside!"
The dog went up the river. First, he saw a clear puddle in the grass, and then found that the water source was inside, and a clear stream flowed quietly from the canyon in front.
Zhang Yong and others looked at the stream and finally understood why the upper reaches of this dry river were overgrown with weeds. It turned out that the water source here was not completely cut off, and some water sources sometimes nourished the plants here.
Zhang Yong turned around and faced Hu Niu, wanting to persuade Hu Niu to stay outside. After all, there may be unknown risks here. He just thought that things were related to the gold mine. Moreover, Luzon Island had never heard of Hu Wolf, so he swallowed the words he vomited to his mouth.
"Let's go in together!"
Hu Niu looked at Zhang Yong for no reason and said lightly.
At this moment, she was not afraid at all, but more nervous. At this point, the truth was revealed soon, and this result was related to whether their joint business group could support more people.
If you cannot find an ideal gold mine in this canyon, then all your efforts today will be useless, and their joint business group will have to spend a year to continue paving the road, and she will no longer use the silver from the joint business group to help the people in Luzon without restraint.
However, if you can really find a big gold mine here, many problems will be solved, and you will lose a lot of constraints in your next work, and no one dares to criticize it any more.
The group walked into this canyon, and the entrance of the valley was several feet wide and was in the shape of a gourd.
Sigh...
Amid the rocks by the stream, a black and white poisonous snake suddenly emerged, with its head flat and scales on its back, which was spitting a letter to their uninvited guests.
"Be careful, everyone!"
When Zhang Yong saw this poisonous snake that suddenly jumped out, he immediately asked the people next to him to be wary of it, but he directly blocked Hu Niu and said loudly.
He was not surprised by the appearance of the poisonous snake. In such mountainous areas, places with water sources are often accompanied by animals, and naturally face some upper predators.
