Chapter 187 Whoever Wielded A Sword At The Peak Was Still Strong And Yanran
Gold, a chemical element of the first subfamily, has an atomic number 79, a specific gravity of 19.32 at 20 degrees Celsius, and a melting point of 1,064 degrees Celsius. Possessing properties many other substances do not possess. For example, ductility, not easy to change color. More importantly, it has always been regarded as a measure of value by humans.
In a quiet and claustrophobic valley, Professor Qin was holding a thumb-sized gold nugget. His face was covered with blood from excitement. Some of the students hurriedly took out their equipment to test their colors. Some continued to search for other specimens in the gurgling shallow currents.
This was the charm of gold. People went crazy for it, and even killed and set fire to it, causing their relatives to turn hostile. It is a symbol of wealth, but also a symbol of honor and reverence. An hour ago they were in despair looking forward to their return. Now, they are fully engaged in their work.
Perhaps it was because there weren't many people carrying guns under Cao Xu's command. After last night's fierce battle, they were heavily injured and were unable to launch another surprise attack in a short period of time. He had arrived here safely and smoothly all day. The map showed that about ten kilometers up the valley would lead to a huge natural karst cave from which the water in the valley flowed. After passing through the cave, it was the birthplace of the ore vein, which was also the sacred land of the Southern Sect's Gu Sect.
Professor Qin's first set of laboratory results showed that the purity of the gold nugget was over 85%. It was definitely a high-purity ore vein. The students collected a hundred kilograms of sediment from the valley. After sifting through the torrent for a long time, they finally left behind a hundred golden beans of all sizes. The figure after weighing was 0.3 kg. This is an astonishing number. Perhaps inaccurate, but enough to ecstatic any gold prospecting team. Professor Qin reported to Gu Tianyou as soon as he got the results.
Gu Tianyou threw the huge backpack on the ground and let out a long sigh, "We're finally there." He took out the satellite mapping transmitter from his pocket and confirmed the route again. Then he took out his phone and called Zou Haibo.
"Big Sister Zou, we have already arrived at our destination. The mapping of the road map has basically been completed."
Zou Haibo said, "Can you determine the value of the ore vein?"
Gu Tianyou said, "Currently, only two tests have been done in the lower reaches of the Golden River. Professor Qin said that it is basically possible to determine that there must be a huge ore vein in the upper reaches!"
Zou Haibo said, "If Qin Pei Yu makes a judgment, then it shouldn't be wrong. You are the person who walked this route and also the chief of staff of Guos Army. The situation there is mainly based on your opinion. Tell me about your plans."
"My advice is to make sure that the environment is safe and stable before airlifting in the mining equipment and personnel," said Gu Tianyou. Zou Haibo said that the equipment will be provided by the Nine Minerals Group. I can provide heavy helicopters for air transportation, and the Guo Family Army will handle the takeoff and landing points. Gu Tianyou continued, "Along the way, we will pass through three natural villages. First, we will build three supply depots. I plan to carry out the road repairs in three phases at the same time. This way, we can strengthen the Guo Clan's control over this area at the same time."
"I can provide weapons, equipment and technicians, and road builders have to be hired locally," Zou said.
Gu Tianyou said, "Cao Xu may have found this place as well. He has someone very important in his hands."
Zou Haibo said, "We were the first to set up that Wu Denghei. The beauty trap was snatched away by Cao Xu the moment it worked. What do you think about this?"
Gu Tianyou said, "I know that you buried a nail beside Cao Xu. I want to save this person."
Zou Haibo said, "You also know that it's a nail, so you should know that a nail's ability is limited."
"I just need the whereabouts of Cao Xu and Wu Denghei," Gu Tianyou said.
Zou Haibo was silent for a while and said, "You can go with Fey. She knows how to contact the nail."
Hanging up, Gu Tianyou ordered the camp to be set up on the spot. This time, it was not temporary, but three to five days of preparation. Liu Feng ordered the monkey to set up a vigilant area to lay down the sneak mines, and he also sent a foolish person to set up a forest trap in the area. He was unhappy that he was holding the sniper and searching for an ambush spot. Taihu is responsible for setting up secret monitoring points in the area. Liu Feng was in charge of activating the solar generator and establishing the internal wireless communication channel in the area.
Gu Tianyou and Jiang Fei were in charge of choosing the location of the camp to set up the tent.
On the last day of the journey, Gu Tianyou had basically replaced the role of an elephant, carrying more than half of the weight on his back. At this moment, he unloaded his equipment and looked relaxed. When they were setting up the tent with Jiang Fei, they recounted the contents of the call just now.
"Sister Zou said you know how to contact that person?"
"Yes." Jiang Fei was nailing down the tension rope, but she did not raise her head to signal Gu Tianyou to find a stone and hand it to her. Gu Tianyou punched a foot-long, thumb-thick stainless steel solder into a crack in the rock. Jiang Fei smacked her tongue and said, "It's even better than a hammer." Suddenly, he remembered the other meaning of the hammer and stuck out his tongue.
What did this girl mean? Hmm, it's over with a single sound? Gu Tianyou added, "I mean, Big Sister Zou said that you can help me contact that person and lock onto Cao Xu's location."
Jiang Fei nodded and said, "I know." After waiting for a while, she said, "There are always priorities. If you want to save Wu Denghei, you have to accompany me to Dragon City and talk to Hu Rumeng later."
Gu Tianyou said, "They are busy with geological exploration these few days. We are fine. Why don't we rescue Wu Denghei?"
Jiang Fei said, "The difference in strength is great. It's good to be able to protect yourself. You still want to take the initiative to attack. Even if you were lucky enough to rescue him, he would lose his footing here without a hostage. Do you think Cao Xu would risk his life with you?"
Gu Tianyou said, "He lost troops and lost generals last night. This is not our country. The elites of the Wolf Brigade are not so-called special forces. If he has the ability and determination to fight us to the death, he will make his move on the road today. On this day, he will encounter a small problem while passing the blockade left behind by the Japanese army."
Jiang Fei said, "Shall we not cause any complications?"
Gu Tianyou looked at her in confusion. I don't understand why she's so uncooperative. As a staff member of the Foreign Intelligence Agency, wouldn't she understand the rules in this line of work?
Jiang Fei hesitated for a moment. He nodded and said, "Alright, I'll tell you why godmother arranged this. I personally sent that nail to Cao Xu. This matter is very difficult. Through this person, we have grasped a lot of important information. The value of this person's existence is not in what he does, but in what he hears. If not, I absolutely do not agree to activate this person to complete an operational mission! Godmother knew that it wasn't easy for me to send this nail in, so she gave me the decision, otherwise she would have given me an order. "
Gu Tianyou continued to discuss, "This is the simplest and most effective way to completely solve Cao Xu's threat."
Jiang Fei remained unmoved and asked, "Why didn't you directly transfer Guos Army over?"
"I already asked for reinforcements last night," Gu Tianyou said. "They will be dropped by air by this evening at the latest."
Jiang Fei was surprised, "Airdrop? Does Guos Army have such a projection ability?"
Gu Tianyou said, "Guo Quanxing and the others definitely can't. I invited some friends from private international organizations."
Jiang Fei guessed, "A mercenary with Liu Feng and the others?"
Gu Tianyou nodded his head. "The current situation is one in which there are few enemies. It is too passive to rely solely on the five of them."
"I don't care what you do," Jiang Fei said. "The nails planted beside Cao Xu absolutely can't move."
… … … …
At home, Golmud Mountain and Wild Bull Mountain in Qinghai Province, the peak of New Green Peak, which was close to 7,000 meters above sea level, was the highest altitude in Kunlun. This place was covered in snow all year round, and there were few people there. Ascending to the top, the mountain instantly grew taller and taller, giving the peak a glimpse of the heroic aura of the small mountains.
The two men agreed to meet here. One fat and one thin. His fat face was amiable and he was dressed in a grey training uniform. The skinny man was elegant, wearing a long robe and carrying a guqin on his back.
At the peak of the mountain, the wind was fierce. Under the low temperature of minus 40 degrees, the two of them wore thin clothes, but they could not see the slightest chill.
Fatty said, "Old lover, are you asking me to meet you in such a place to have a good fight?"
The thin man said, "Fatty Ming, you've been fighting all your life. Haven't you had enough?"
The fatty was none other than King Ming. He spread out his hands and said, "Otherwise, what else could I do when I meet you?"
The skinny one was naturally Hu Rumeng. He said, "I have never made any friends in my life. The enemies are neither young nor old. There are many who treat me as enemies. In my eyes, there are only three or four people in the country who are qualified to be enemies. You are naturally the first, Bodhisattva is one, Chen Zhihan is barely able, Sun Mingshen is almost interested."
Amongst the four of you, I admire your fist the most. I can't see through Bodhisattva Wang Xian's heart art all the time. He has a pair of wonderful hands and profound knowledge. It's a pity that he is as famous as he is. Half a man and half a woman chatter. Perhaps if it weren't for this, his Buddhist kung fu wouldn't have reached the peak. Chen Zhihan's direct descendant, the Chen Clan's Taiji, was interesting, but she wasn't hot enough. Sun Mingshen, that brat, had a lot of wits and schemes. He wasn't inferior to Chen Zhihan. Unfortunately, he was too weak and too affectionate. Ever since he and Chen Zhihan's illegitimate son entered the capital ten years ago, he hadn't left the capital for Chen Zhihan's words for ten years. Finally, there was a flaw in this Son of Heaven sword that cut gold and jade.
King Ming said, "I have been your enemy for 30 years, friends for 10 years, fighting, drinking and eating meat. I hate you the most because you don't speak well."
Hu Rumeng said, "Then I'll get straight to the point. I want to see someone first, and then kill someone. There are some things behind me that I'm worried about."
King Ming said, "Kill Chen Zhihan when you see the Bodhisattva?"
Hu Rumeng nodded and said, "I have wandered all my life, and my enemies are all over the world. I only have one thing to worry about, so I specially found a brat with great fortune to make phoenix wings for her."
King Ming said, "That brat is skillful and straightforward. His schemes are not under your control. His temperament is stronger than when I was younger. I have already passed down the mantle to him. It's a coincidence that you should entrust your daughter to him again."
Hu Rumeng said, "If he's a little weak, he won't be able to accept your mantle. If he can't accept your mantle, how can I entrust my daughter to him? That's why I said that this brat has great fortune. He's three points more treacherous than you. He's a foot braver. In the future, he'll definitely be able to…"
King Ming interrupted, "If he had been enemies with Remington, Yagiu Sekishiusai, and Chen Zhihan earlier, he might not have lived to that day."
Hu Rumeng said, "I know that he has gone to Burma now. Remington and Stone Boat House have been laid out for many years, and even Chen Zhihan has difficulty interfering. He wants to stand firm unless he receives your help. I know that you have been plotting an earth-shattering event. I came here today to ask you to suspend your actions for three years until his wings are full."
King Ming said, "Since he was chosen by you as Feng Yi, he can be considered your son-in-law. Why don't you wait three more years for your daughter and son-in-law?"
Hu Rumeng looked up at Gu Cangqiong and down at the mountains. He sighed and said, "I have a ten-year agreement with Wang Xian. When the time comes, we will have to end it!"
King Ming said, "This brat has already provoked Cao Hongen's dog son. It seems that Shi Zhou Zhai's junior brother Sato Shinzhai is also there. He asked me for help last night. I have already sent a group of people to him. Old friend, please forgive me for having to do so much."
Hu Rumeng frowned and said, "The rumors of that thing being discovered by the Japanese in Burma suddenly spread. The entire world's intelligence elites gathered to search for it. Apart from the suspicious component that allowed Japan's electronics technology to lead the world for 30 years, so many people found nothing else. After so many years, these people still haven't given up."
King Ming said, "Didn't you also say that Master led him into the sect to cultivate in a person? Didn't you say that he was blessed with great fortune? I think he'll just let himself do it."
