"Yes, uncle, the seller also said that this was found at the foot of Kunlun Mountain. How could it be Gobi material? At best, it can only be considered mountain material, right? Gobi material usually appears farther away than mountain streams, often in the Gobi Desert hundreds of kilometers away from Kunlun Mountain.

Liu Baojun's words made Yang Jing feel overwhelmed...
