Tang Zhen is a very resilient person. Once he decides on something, he will try his best to complete it.
Now that he has chosen to become a treasure digger, he will naturally do it with a serious attitude and will never do it perfunctorily.
This is different from working part-time. Without a stable income, you either make a lot of money or get nothing.
Tang Zhen had no way out. He had already made up his mind to dig out enough gems and earn enough money.
If nothing happens, he will return to his hometown and live a normal life. If something happens, he will leave a large amount of money to his sister and then wander around the world.
At this time, Tang Zhen had no idea that this primeval forest would produce various gemstones. It was all because of his imagination.
Even the whole world is a huge playground for him, and he can change it according to his own wishes.
Originally he thought he was just a passer-by, but in fact he was half a master. It couldn't be easier to get some beautiful stones.
Of course, before regaining his original memory, Tang Zhen looked almost like an ordinary person, and he had no idea how powerful he was!
The smug Tang Zhen continued to march deeper into the forest and walked for nearly a day before finally arriving at a place that satisfied him.
This is a valley hidden in the forest, with a small stream flowing slowly through it, and the environment is quiet and elegant.
Because few people set foot there, the scenery maintains its original appearance and looks very beautiful.
Tang Zhen, a common man, was not in the mood to appreciate the scenery here, but immediately chose a suitable location and began to build his own camp.
If you want to fight here for a long time, you must have a comfortable place to live. Firstly, you can shelter from wind and rain, and secondly, you can have a good rest after hard work.
Some people don't care about this aspect when they live in the wild, and often do it perfunctorily.
However, such people cannot persist in the wild for too long. Even if they can persist, it will increase the burden on their bodies.
A comfortable resting environment is very important when surviving in the wild. Tang Zhen knows this, so he will never do it half-heartedly.
Tang Zhen doesn't have much experience in building houses, but he has watched related videos in the past. What's more, because of his work, he also has the hands-on ability in this area.
With the ax he bought, Tang Zhen began to search for suitable materials in the forest. It didn't take long before he selected a thick bamboo forest.
The sharp ax chopped over, and the bamboos fell down one by one. After a little tidying up, they were dragged to a flat grassland by Tang Zhen.
Then he took a spade and a pickaxe, quickly leveled the ground, and then used these bamboos to build the frame of the house.
Because of his huge strength, Tang Zhen seemed very relaxed when doing these tasks, and he did it quickly and well.
It didn't take long for the skeleton of the house to be built, and then Tang Zhen began to weave simple walls with bamboo, and then smeared them with mud.
The area of the house is not particularly large, it can only accommodate him alone, so it did not take too long for the work to be completed.
Then Tang Zhen got a lot of branches, lit smoke to grill the house, and at the same time brandished a machete to uproot all the weeds nearby.
After working for nearly two days, Tang Zhen completed all the work, and a simple small courtyard appeared in front of him.
The house is made of bamboo, which is simple and exquisite, and there is no problem in protecting it from wind and rain.
The yard has been deliberately manicured and covered with a layer of gravel brought from the river, making it appear smooth and clean.
The fence built with bamboo poles around it prevents wild animals from approaching here. The plant ash sprinkled under the fence can drive away some snakes and insects.
In addition to these, Tang Zhen also built pots and stoves with stones and soil, and built a shed as a kitchen.
On the table made of bamboo, there were placed some food that he had obtained. After Tang Zhen tested it, it was confirmed that it should not be toxic.
What he doesn't know is that even the most poisonous poison in the original world cannot cause any harm to him.
Similarly, he cannot starve to death, but because he does not know this, he still follows his previous lifestyle and eats enough food to maintain his strength.
This is also a headache for Tang Zhen now. Because he entered the forest in a hurry, he didn't consider the source of food at all.
The only source of food now is catching fish, shrimp and some shell bugs in the nearby creek.
Due to his greatly improved reaction speed, he can also hunt various animals in the mountains and forests by throwing stones and other means.
In a short period of time, Tang Zhen does not need to worry about the source of food. If necessary, he can also go to nearby villages and towns to buy back some rice, flour, grain and oil.
There is a saying that a sharpened knife never fails to chop wood. After Tang Zhen arrived in this valley, he had been preparing for a long-term battle.
Just looking at the layout of the courtyard, who would have thought that the owner of the house came here for refuge.
Now that everything was ready, Tang Zhen chose a location and started digging for gems.
Although there is a layer of floating soil on the surface of this valley, after digging to a certain depth, there are all kinds of gravel underneath.
There are gems among these rubbles, but the quality of the gems is very poor. Even if they are sold, they are not worth a lot of money.
If you want to obtain higher quality gems, you need to dig deeper underground and dig directly into the weathered rock formations underground.
If you are lucky, you can find gemstone veins directly and make a fortune easily.
But if you are unlucky, no matter how deep you dig, you won't get anything at all.
So before taking action, Tang Zhen began to pray for blessings from gods and Buddhas in the sky, hoping that good luck would come to him.
When the clone sitting nearby saw this, he really didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
The rumors about this forest are completely based on Tang Zhen's imagination. In fact, he can do whatever he wants.
It's just that he doesn't know it, but he is still following the script he wrote and having a great time.
In fact, just when he prayed and made a wish, the land under Tang Zhen's feet had already changed, and it was expected that it would soon bring him unexpected surprises.
After worshiping Zhoutian God and Buddha, the real god is actually oneself, and what one consumes is one's own original power.
After clearing away the weeds on the ground, Tang Zhen got a shovel and began to clean up the old soil on the ground.
Because it has been accumulated for too long, the soil has become rotten and soft, but because of the entanglement of grass roots, it is not particularly easy to clean up.
But now Tang Zhen is as powerful as an ox. When digging, it is like cutting tofu, and it can easily shovel away the soil on the surface.
It didn't take long before a big hole was dug in the ground, and there were more and more gravels in the soil.
The next thing Tang Zhen has to do is to clear away the soil mixed with gravel. After reaching the weathered rock formation, he can break the rock formation to look for gems.
As a result, after digging for a few times, he suddenly looked surprised and then bent down to pick up a stone.
Tang Zhen was very strong, and the shovel in his hand was almost like breaking the stone. The stone had been cut into two pieces by the shovel.
A peculiar blue-green color appeared in front of Tang Zhen's eyes, and the stubble looked like broken porcelain.
"This is...the heavenly gem!"
Tang Zhen was stunned for a moment, then showed an incredulous expression and blinked uncontrollably.
After carefully reading it several times and taking out my phone to compare, I excitedly waved my fists and raised my head to the sky with a low roar.
"Hahaha, I'm rich, I dug up the gem from heaven!"
Looking at the excited Tang Zhen, the clone sitting next to him curled his lips, with a speechless expression on his face.
"Is it really fun to bury the treasure yourself, then dig it out again, and yell with excitement?"
But when I think about it, it is really exciting to be able to gain such a harvest without knowing the truth.
