This sudden ray of precious light instantly cheered up Yang Jing.
This light was completely different from the light emitted by the mines he had seen before. Some precious metal or jade mines would also emit light, which Yang Jing already knew very well. However, the light emitted by the mines was mostly diffuse, and the intensity was not very strong.
As for treasures, if they are buried deep underground or in the belly of a mountain, or if they are placed in a metal container, the light emitted by such treasures is very weak and cannot be seen if you are not careful. Sometimes the treasure is buried too deep, and even the light cannot be seen.
It was just like when Yang Jing was looking for the imperial seal, the entrance to Wu Zetian's mausoleum was hidden in deep water more than a hundred meters deep, and the mausoleum itself was deep into the mountain. So even if there were many priceless treasures such as the imperial seal and the imitation of Dayu's Nine Cauldrons in Wu Zetian's mausoleum, their light could not be emitted, and they could only rely on the clues left by Yuechengzi to find the entrance to the treasure.
But as long as the treasure is not buried very deep and is not placed in a metal container, the light will usually show through. If the treasure is buried very shallowly, the light rising into the sky can be seen even from a long distance.
The most important thing is that because the treasure is composed of many treasures gathered together, the light emitted by the treasure is condensed and not dispersed, which is completely different from the light emitted by the mineral deposits!
The precious light that was shining from the bottom of the water, though faint, was condensed and did not disperse!
"Is there a treasure buried under the water of this reservoir? Or is the 1,100 tons of gold of the last Tsar buried here?" Yang Jing thought excitedly.
I had such an experience last year when I was searching for the imperial seal, but that was at the Xiaolangdi Reservoir, and now it is at the Bukhtamar Reservoir, the fifth largest reservoir in the world.
However, the depth of the Bukhtamar Reservoir is not as great as that of the Xiaolangdi Reservoir. The deepest part of the Bukhtamar Reservoir is only eighty meters deep.
Although Yang Jing didn't know how deep the water was here, he estimated that it was about sixty meters.
The fact that it can emit a faint precious light through sixty meters of water means that there must be a lot of treasures buried underneath.
Yang Jing calmed himself down and asked Old Ivan beside him: "Victor, what are those two mountains? They look very imposing."
The Siberian Endeavour was still one or two kilometers away from the two mountains. Old Ivan looked in the direction Yang Jing pointed, then nodded and said, "Those two mountains are the highest mountains on the entire reservoir shore. The mountain on the east bank is called Wolf Cliff by the locals, and the mountain on the west bank is called Eagle Cliff. Because Wolf Cliff is further east of the Altai Mountains, wolves often appear there. Many times, wolves gather above Wolf Cliff, so that mountain is called Wolf Cliff. The mountain on the west bank is even steeper, and only eagles can fly up there, so it is called Eagle Cliff. Why, are you interested in those two mountains?"
Yang Jing nodded. "Well, I just think these two mountains are very imposing. Looking down at this body of water from a high place, it feels like two giants are guarding this reservoir."
"Yes, these two mountains are very famous in the local area, and many tourists come by boat to admire these two mountains every year."
"Then let's go over and admire these two mountains up close?"
"You have the final say, and it's not a difficult thing to do."
"I think we should just drop anchor there tonight. It would be a shame to enjoy such a beautiful view if we don't have some delicious food. What do you think, Victor?"
Old Ivan laughed and said, "Although I am the captain, the itinerary is determined by you. Since you like it here, we can stay here for one more night."
Feeling that the yacht was slowing down, Chris and the others gathered around.
"Captain, shall we drop anchor here tonight?"
"The scenery here is very nice. We can have a barbecue dinner in the evening."
"I'll go prepare the fishing gear. Who wants to compete with me in fishing later?"
......
The deck suddenly became lively. The boat was full of males, and sometimes it was quite interesting to see so many men together. At least they spoke and acted without any scruples.
It was as if Clark and a crew member had made eye contact. Both of them were the physique of polar bears, with similar strength and alcohol tolerance. Neither of them would give in to the other, so after passing Semii, this pair of funny guys were completely entangled with each other. Whenever they had free time, they would either compare their strength or their alcohol tolerance. Anyway, the duel between the two became a scenic spot on the ship.
Of course, in terms of killing skills, Clark could kill five of those crew members. But in terms of repairing machinery, that crew member could beat Clark by half Siberia. So the competition between the two was not about their professional skills, but about other things.
They had competed in strength, drinking capacity and other aspects many times before, and the two men were about the same, so a variety of competitions began to unfold between them.
For example, this time the two learned that they were going to drop anchor here and spend the night, so they started competing again.
However, when Yang Jing and Old Ivan learned about the content of this competition, they couldn't help laughing.
These two tall and strong men were just like children, actually competing to see who could withstand the cold longer!
The reason was that during lunch, the two talked about their hometowns. The crew member Ostrovsky's hometown was the Chukotka Autonomous Region in the easternmost part of Russia, and Clark's hometown was in Alaska. Strictly speaking, 150 years ago, the two were from the same country.
