Chapter 76
I was busy looking for the hole where the air flow passed, but I didn't notice any smell. When I saw the fat man standing at the hole and sniffing his nose, I asked, "What's the smell? The smell in this cave may be a shit that is black and irritated. Don't smell it hard, be careful of being poisoned."
The fat man waved to me and Da Jinya and said, "No, you two come here to smell it. It smells so fucking good. Why does it look like his mother chocolate when I smell it?"
"Chocolate?" After hearing this word, Da Jinya and I immediately "gurgled" and their unscrupulous stomachs sounded. How could there be chocolate in this cave? I could hear it for no reason, but chocolate was so tempting to the three of us hungry people. Even Da Jinya, which had only half a life left, became energetic when she heard the "chocolate", and her eyes were shining. I didn't want to go over, but my legs kept directing and walked a few steps towards the entrance of the cave with no prospects.
I sniffed my nose and smelled it. There was no chocolate. I said to the fat man, "Are you crazy hungry? Is it the burning smell of the rotten wood in the temple over there?"
The fat man said, "How could it be? You get closer, the closer you get to the hole, the stronger the fragrance, well... it is fragrant and sweet, ****, is there a cream chocolate tree growing here? Let's go in and see if there is anything to eat."
Big Gold Teeth also smelled it and nodded repeatedly: "That's right, it's really chocolate. Master Hu, please smell it quickly, it's emitted from this hole."
I heard Dajinya say this, and I felt strange. So I walked two steps closer and smelled it with my nose in front of the hole. A strong milk mixed with the sweetness of cocoa rushed straight to my forehead. After smelling this wonderful smell, the wound on my body didn't seem to hurt much. I became more energetic, my whole body was so refreshed, my limbs felt comfortable, and I couldn't help but exclaim: "His grandma, it smells so fucking good. This smell...it's like...it's like...it's a fucking angel kiss."
The three of them could no longer hold back and walked into the dark cave with candles. The cave was extremely narrow, only two meters high and three or four meters wide. The rocks inside the cave were strangely shaped, like old tree roots, curled and concave.
The fat man walked forward like a fat hunting dog, sniffing it with his nose while walking, looking for the source of the wonderful fragrance, and suddenly pointed to a rock in the hole with his hand: "It's from here." After that, he wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth, and wanted to pounce on it and take a few bites.
I put the candle on the edge of the rock and watched it with the fat man with the gold-toothed one. The big stone looked like a trunk, brown-yellow on the outside, like a layer of skin. There were several exposed parts, all of which were translucent. The stone was slowly covered with broken colorful patterns, which were smooth and transparent. When illuminated by the candlelight, the texture in the stone seemed to be flowing faintly, and the rich fragrance came from this stone.
The fat man couldn't help but reach out and touched it, put his fingers on his nose and sniffed it, and said to me and Da Jinya, "Old Hu Lao Jin, touched it with his fingers, and even his fingers turned into chocolate. Can this thing be eaten?"
I have never seen such a wonderful stone, and I shook my head and wondered: "I dug a pit in Kunlun Mountain for several years, and I have seen all kinds of strange rocks. I think it looks like a fossil of a tree trunk and should not be eaten."
Due to excessive fright, Da Jinya, who had not spoken for a long time, suddenly said excitedly: "Master Hu, we are really sending it now. You see, isn't this smelling fragrant jade?"
The fat man had never heard of this word and asked Da Jinya, "What? Isn't that too singular in his speech by Brother Liu?"
Da Jinya said to the fat man: "Pang Ye, what you are talking about is Chang Xiangyu who sings Henan Opera. I said this stone is Smelling Xiangyu, also known as Jin Xiangyu, this is a treasure."
I asked Dajinya: "Golden and fragrant jade, I have heard that if you don't know golden and fragrant jade, it's hard to find golden and fragrant jade. So it's this kind of stone? I used to say that I was a very beautiful daughter, but then again, the unique fragrance of this stone is never inferior to any big girl."
I don’t know whether it was the effect of smelling the wonderful smell of fragrant jade, or the big gold teeth that were originally disgusted and were originally disgusted, but they became energetic at this time. They said to me and the fat man: "This thing is a royal secret treasure, and it was once a fight. It was poured out in the ancient tombs. It was first seen in the Qin and Han dynasties. It was not common among the people in ancient times, so few people knew that this thing has infinite uses. The dryer environment is, the richer its fragrance. There was a poem that once praised it: There was no flower interpretation in the world, but now it is seen that jade fragrance is fragrant; the creation of the heavenly palace is incredible, and it is so wonderful that it is so exquisite. I have collected a piece before, and it was poured out by someone else from the bucket, but it is pitifully small and incomparable to this piece..."
When the fat man heard that this was a baby, he hurriedly asked Da Jinya: "How much is Lao Jin worth by such a big piece?"
Dajinya said: "The bigger the raw stone of the smelling jade, the more valuable it is. This outer skin is also a very precious medicinal material. I guess it is so big, and judging from the texture, it is definitely a top-quality one. At least you can change an imported car."
I said to Da Jinya, "Mr. Jin, this place is very close to the temple where the bronze tripod is placed. Isn't this piece of fragrant jade a bright weapon?"
Da Jinya thought for a while and said to me: "No, I think this is a natural raw stone. If it weren't for a small part of the outer skin, we wouldn't have smelled it at all. You see, there was no trace of artificial excavation in this narrow hole, and the rest of the stones on the ground, Panpan Tuota, are like tree roots. I think these are naturally formed fossils."
I said, "It seems that this is a masterless thing. Since that's the case, we will carry it back. Unexpectedly, we will not be able to carry flowers and willows without intention. We will run into a willow. We are not lucky enough to meet an empty tomb and we didn't even pour out half of the artifact. But fortunately, the ancestor's grandfather opened his eyes and never taught us to do it in vain. This time, he was frightened, and it was not a loss."
The fat man was waiting for me to say this, bent down to pick up the piece of Sin Xiangyu. Big Gold Ya hurriedly stopped him and said to the fat man: "Don't hug him like this, you have to find something to wrap it up. If only we had cotton cloth."
I swept around and the fat man and I were naked, and my clothes were lit up. I tore half of the big gold-teethed pants off. Among the three, he was still wearing a top that had been worn on his back.
We only had a few candles left, and we were all hungry and couldn't stay for more, otherwise we would like to find nearby, whether there are any other rough stones or other fossils.
Seeing that the candle in my hand had been burned halfway, I put it in a paper lantern, let Big Gold Teeth take off her ragged coat, wrapped it in a scented jade, carried it by the fat man, and retreated from the narrow cave.
When I returned to the big cave outside, I saw that the temple tributed the bronze tripod with a human face had been completely burned, and some scattered dark fire flashed in the coke in the ruins.
I could no longer see the shape around me in the darkness, and I said to Fatty and Big Gold Teeth: "There was no other black thorn that came out again just now, but I can't conclude that they are all dead. Maybe their kind are just scared away by the fire. Now that the fire is extinguished, it is likely that it will come out. We should not delay it anymore and find a way to leave as soon as possible."
The fat man said, "It's only possible to have that big cauldron. The bronze one should not burn. Let's go back and eat and drink, bring the guys and move it back. After pouring so many times, I can't take a utensil back. It must be a bad face."
Big Gold Teeth said to the fat man: "Fatty, I think you're going to give up that thing. The human-faced cauldron is not as heavy as a thousand pounds. The three of us are bare-handed and how can we move it? Besides, we can't sell it even if we move it back. This kind of thing is a national treasure that cannot be afforded by ordinary people. Only the country can collect it. Let's just let it continue to be placed in place. We have such a big piece of fragrant jade, which is already a fortune. It's better not to cause more trouble."
Fatty and I both know that Da Jinya is a profitable businessman, but he is an old fried dough stick in the antique business. What antique artifacts can be bought and sold? Da Jinya has a detailed account in his heart. No matter how much money a tripod is, it is a hot potato. He has a fate to get wealth and has no luck to save him. No matter how much money he earns, it will be a business that will lose his old capital in the end, which is definitely not cost-effective. So even if the fat man is unwilling to accept it and is reluctant to do it, he has to do it.
With the memory we just now, we fumbled along the stone wall of the cave and came to the next hole. I let the fat man and Big Gold Teeth breathe, took out a small piece of candle from the paper lantern, and aimed it at the hole to test the airflow.
As soon as the small half of the candle was lifted at the entrance of the cave, the candle flame immediately turned tilted in the opposite direction to the cave. I put the candle back into the paper lamp and illuminated it. I looked at the entrance of the cave with my hand. I couldn't feel the air flow too obvious, but the tilt of the candle flame proved that the entrance of the cave is not a dead end. Even if it is not connected to the outside, there is a huge space behind it. Maybe it is those "black thorns" that go out to hunt. As long as the air flows, we have the opportunity to drill out of these caves.
So I held a paper lantern in front of me, and the fat man and Da Jinya carried "Smelling Scented Jade" and drilled into this cave. Perhaps the fragrance of "Smelling Smelling Jade" did have miraculous effects on people's spirit. Although we were still very hungry, we felt energetic and clear-headed. The three of them were very happy to get the treasure, so they had to crawl out of the cave and celebrated them.
This cave is extremely winding, high and low, ups and downs, and only one person can pass through the narrow part. Later, the cave was winding and steep, with slopes of 40 degrees.
