Jiang Qiuyun felt strange: "This is a place covered with snow, how can there be pine trees?"
Lu Cheng said: "Nature is wonderful, isn't it? This is the sunny side on the east side. Because of the depression in the cave, the snow cannot completely cover it. The roots of the trees are rooted in the rocks. The mountain blocks the cold wind, so some pine trees survive." "Is this an artificially planted pine tree?"
"It's possible."
Lu Cheng walked around behind the pine tree and found traces of artificial carvings on the stone wall. Upon closer inspection, there seemed to be a sunken stone door! He pushed the stone door lightly, but failed to push it open; it took three thousand kilograms of force to open it.
The stone door creaked open! There was a dark cave inside!
"Strange, why is there a cave here?"
"Go in and take a look before we talk."
Lu Cheng took out his headlamp, put it on, and walked into the deep cave.
I don’t know how deep the cave is, I can’t see the bottom at a glance.
After walking forward for more than ten meters, Lu Cheng was suddenly surprised to find that the stone walls in the cave were all covered with exposed jade! Some were green and some were pure white, emitting strange colors under the light.
He waved his golden dagger and dug out two pieces from the stone wall, each about ten centimeters in diameter, one emerald green and one pure white. He handed the emerald green jade to Jiang Qiuyun, holding the pure white jade in his hand to look at it carefully. p>
"The fineness and oiliness are very good. It does not feel watery, but is more waxy. It looks thicker than other Qinghai ingredients. If you look closer, you can see that it is not pure white, but milky white, light-colored like cheese.
, very mild, I can smell the milky aroma, I really want to take a bite. This is top-quality mutton fat white jade!"
Jiang Qiuyun praised: "This piece of jasper is also very beautiful. With a little polishing and carving, it is not much worse than ice jade."
"I never expected that such a small cave would contain jade veins!"
"Is this a cave left behind by previous diggers?"
"Probably not. If it was a tunnel dug by miners, how could they be willing to give up these jade materials?"
"Who could have done that?"
Continuing to walk forward, after walking about thirty meters, the front suddenly became clear, and there was a circular jasper stone room with a diameter of about twenty meters. There was a white jade bed, two white jade tables, and four white jade handles in the middle.
chairs, and there are several small stone chambers around them, filled with sapphire and white jade.
Lu Cheng walked over and picked up a piece of white jade. He looked at it and found that it was better than the one he dug out earlier!
"It turns out that the person who dug the tunnel kept the most exquisite jade materials and piled them in a small stone chamber! Oh my God, who did this?"
Jiang Qiuyun was surprised and asked: "Lu Cheng, do you think this is a relic left by an ancient immortal?"
Lu Cheng took a deep breath and said, "Maybe."
"Look carefully for any dried mummies."
"Since you are an immortal, shouldn't you ascend in the daytime?"
They searched around and found no bones.
Jiang Qiuyun was in a small stone room and saw a bow and a sword hanging on the jasper wall. The bow was very big, as tall as a person, and the bow string was rotten. The sword had a scabbard, and it shone with cold light when it was pulled out.
It's three feet long and looks very sharp.
She swung her sword and struck it against the jasper wall. It was able to cut down without any damage to the blade.
"What a sword! This sword belongs to me. I will use it to learn sword dancing later!"
Lu Cheng looked at the sword and found that there were many thunder cloud patterns on it, and the thunder cloud pattern was the simplest rune.
Yunleiwen is a typical pattern commonly seen on bronzes. The basic feature is that it is composed of continuous "hui"-shaped lines. Some are circular continuous compositions, which are simply called "cloud patterns"; some are square.
Continuous composition, simply called "thunder pattern". Cloud and thunder patterns are often used as ground patterns on bronze vessels to highlight the theme decorations. They also appear alone on the neck or feet of the vessel. It was popular in the Shang Dynasty and Western Zhou Dynasty, the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
It is still in use during this period. On the Cantonese bronze drums, the cloud and thunder pattern is used as the main decoration. It is often densely distributed around the sun pattern in the center of the drum surface, symbolizing the coexistence of the sun and cloud and thunder in the sky.
Lu Cheng flicked the sword with his finger and said: "This is not a bronze, it seems to be some kind of alloy steel. It appeared later than the witchcraft era."
Jiang Qiuyun asked: "How do you know it appeared later?"
Lu Cheng replied: "Because the runes on it have been greatly simplified. It's like transitioning from traditional Chinese characters to simplified Chinese characters."
"Is this a flying sword common in cultivation novels? Can it fly?"
"I think it's very suspended. I probably won't be able to fly."
He took off the bow without strings, held it in his fingers and stroked it for a moment, and said: "I don't know what kind of wood was used for this bow, and I don't know how many years it has been. It is still smooth and round, and as hard as iron. This is a good thing."
, I’ll find a bow string to tie back later, it can be used again.”
He put away the bow, and then put all the sapphire and white jade in several small stone chambers into storage bracelets and storage belts. According to his estimation, if the jade materials were piled together, they would be at least 5-6 meters long.
A square, even if it is 5 meters, has a volume of 125 cubic meters. The density of nephrite is 3, which is equivalent to 375 tons.
Jiang Qiuyun took action and put away the white jade bed, white jade table and four chairs.
The two white jade tables are very beautiful, one round table, one square table, and one rectangular table!
The white jade bed was unsatisfactory. It was only 1.7 meters long and too narrow. It could only accommodate one person.
Despite this, Jiang Qiuyun rarely had such a gain, and she was happy in her heart and said with a smile: "According to Jin Yong's novel "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", the white jade bed is helpful for practicing martial arts, and this is the kind of bed Xiao Longnu sleeps on."<
/p>
Lu Cheng muttered: "When the spiritual energy is revived, the white jade helps absorb the spiritual energy and transmit it to the person sleeping on it. It should have some effect."
Jiang Qiuyun smiled and said: "In that case, let's try it after we go back."
They swept away all the items in the stone room, then walked out of the cave and carefully descended the mountain using crampons. Although the two of them were strong in skills and carried amulets with them, it would still be dangerous to fall from a high mountain. After going down the mountain, standing at the foot of the mountain, Lu Cheng took out his mobile phone and looked at it. He found that the signal here was very weak. He checked the longitude and latitude of the mountain and couldn't help but laugh.
"Haha, guess what? This is actually Yuxu Peak!"
"Yuxu Peak?"
"This is the Holy Land of Immortals, the legendary former residence of immortals. Isn't it a bit funny?"
"I don't think it's funny at all. Is this where the Queen Mother of the West lives?"
"Well, according to the legend of the immortal family, this is where the Queen Mother of the West held the Peach Conference. Yuxu Peak is based on the mountains and stands in the clouds. It is one of the Taoist pilgrimage centers and the main Taoist temple of the Kunlun Sect of Taoism. It is known as the Taoist
The cave heaven and blessed land, the best of the sacred mountains."
Yuxu Peak is the sister peak of Yuzhu Peak, with an altitude of 5980 meters, longitude 93.41, and latitude 35.45. It is one of the origins of Kunlun jade.
It stands to reason that although this mountain is high, there are still mountaineers who come to climb it. Those people took the route south of the mountain, where the terrain is relatively flat. Lu Cheng and Jiang Qiuyun took the east side, where there is a section of cliffs.
There is no way for people to climb up.
Jiang Qiuyun looked back at the pine tree near the top of the mountain and sighed: "The legendary Queen Mother's Palace should be extremely grand, with a gathering of immortals. How come there is only one cave?"
Lu Cheng: "That is a legend after all. Even if the Queen Mother's Palace existed back then, it has long since disappeared without a trace in the human world after tens of thousands of years of wind and rain."
