Chapter 255: Amber Again
Lu Qiaoge's eyes fell on the top stone.
The lighting in the basement is poor, so I can't see clearly what color the stone is, but it is definitely not an ordinary big stone.
Lu Qiage shone the flashlight over there. The surface of the stone had a cold matte luster. Lu Qiage touched it. The moment his palm touched it, he felt an indescribable warmth slowly flowing from the stone to his palm.
Lu Qiaoge suddenly withdrew his hand.
Looking at it carefully again, it is clearly a jadeite raw stone with sandy skin.
She moved the flashlight closer and shone it over there. Suddenly, the yellow-white beam of light refracted into a needle-like bright green somewhere.
Lu Qiaoge's fingertips moved slightly. Is this a piece of jade with a window?
She was 100% sure it was true because she felt it.
Lu Qiage slowly stood up. This was the first time she felt energy from something else since she came to this world. She tried to touch the gold again, but felt nothing. It seemed that only jade could do it.
That’s not right. She has five jade bracelets and six jade pendants at home, all of which are jadeite, just like a pool of blue water.
But when I touched it, I didn't feel anything.
Is it because it's too small?
She did touch them one by one at the beginning.
So, the stones here should all be raw jadeite?
Lu Qiage took out the stone he had just seen. He didn't feel anything when he held it. Lu Qiage thought about it and pressed his palm down again.
At Sumeru, the feeling just now came back.
Lu Qiaoge was very calm. He had experienced this feeling at the end of the world.
Even though it is hardly used in this era, since you have it, just keep it.
As for the value of this jade, Lu Qiaoge didn't even consider it.
However, it was only about a minute before Lu Qiage withdrew her hand. In the darkness, a hint of surprise flashed across her beautiful eyes, which she had not expected.
Lu Qiaoge looked at the stone again. The fist-sized stone was broken into powder.
In this box, the big stones are as big as footballs, and the small ones are about the size of a man's fist.
Lu Qiaoge clenched his hands and carefully felt his body and mental strength in the darkness.
There is an inexplicable silky feeling.
Well, both power and speed have increased.
Lu Qiage felt that if he ran to the foot of Yuanbao Mountain, the place where he and his comrade Qin Hengzhi had a picnic last time, starting from the north gate, it would probably take less than three minutes.
It deserves to be called extreme speed.
Lu Qiaoge did not delay any further. After all, the strength and speed were his own, so it would be the same no matter when he looked at it.
But if all these boxes are not opened, I’m afraid I won’t be able to sleep at night.
Lu Qiaoge opened the remaining nineteen boxes.
It’s really like opening a blind box.
That long-lost feeling of excitement surged in my heart again.
There are eight boxes full of gold sand.
There are five boxes filled with jadeite rough stones of various sizes.
There are two boxes of gold bars and gold lumps mixed with stones.
There were four more boxes. After Lu Qiage opened one of them, his pupils shrank. It was actually a box full of amber.
After a moment of silence, Lu Qiage understood, because the place with the most amber is Fushun in the northeast.
The Japanese who stole the old gold mine went to Fushun and plundered it wantonly, but he did not hand it over. Instead, he secretly transported it back to Jiangcheng, intending to transport it back to his family through special channels.
Amber is like gold. The bright-colored amber has a delicate, warm and bright luster that you can feel the moment you open the box.
Lu Qiaoge was very patient this time and looked at them one by one.
There are basically two types, gem-grade amber and insect amber.
Colorful and in various shapes.
Each one, even if covered with dust, is still bright, beautiful and colorful.
It’s really beautiful.
Lu Qiaoge's eyes fell on the remaining three boxes.
She took a flashlight and shone it at them one by one.
It's all amber, full of splendor.
The most numerous insects were ants. Lu Qiage also saw amber containing a small fish, and many more were unknown substances.
My grandfather has a few of them, which he bought at a high price. They are extremely rare.
But she actually had four full boxes.
In the past, fu*shun was extensively mined by the Japanese, so there is no doubt that this is another stronghold of the Japanese.
Fortunately, it is not open to the public. If I come back in a few years, I am afraid that this place will have been found by their descendants.
Damn robber!
Lu Qiaoge thought of the two ambers that Diandian had given him. Now that he thought about it, maybe they were from the same batch and they were playing with them. They were not in a hurry and thought they could occupy the country for hundreds of years. Unexpectedly, they were defeated, so they got lost on the way to transport the gold sand and were then found by Diandian...
These are too valuable for research, she can't keep them all.
But since the thing is in her hands, there is no need to rush.
When the right opportunity arises, she donates it.
It cannot be moved for the time being. The environment in the basement is pretty good, with low humidity but not dry either, otherwise the ambers would not be preserved so well.
Place the four chests filled with amber back in their original locations.
Lu Qiaoge put the others back in their original place.
There were twenty-nine boxes, fifteen boxes of gold sand, four boxes of gold nuggets, six boxes of jadeite raw stones, and the last four boxes of amber.
At this time, Xiao Cang Cang, who was guarding the well, flew in, but was very sensible and did not fly in. He said to Lu Qiaoge at the place where the landslide occurred: [Little master, there is someone knocking on the door. It is Aunt Bai next door. She said that the water in your well is delicious and wants to fetch a bucket of water...]
The tabby cat squatted on the wall, feeling a little regretful that it couldn't go in. Although it was very powerful and basically no cat could defeat it, it was worried that it would not be able to hold on to the rope and fall into the water.
It is most afraid of water.
All we can do is arrange for Xiao Cang Cang to go and inform the little master.
Actually, Rat Da and Rat Er are also fine.
But this is a well, and the shrewd Rat would not rashly go down to inform his young master without his consent.
The most suitable one is Xiao Cang Cang.
Lu Qiao used his flashlight to scan the area, then said to Xiao Cang Cang, "You and Shu Da don't have to look for the entrance yet. Just stay where you are."
Xiao Cang Cang: [Okay, little master. ]
Lu Qiaoge took Xiao Cangcang out of the basement with a flashlight.
Lu Qiaoge held the rope with one hand and closed the door on the well wall with the other.
You know what, the design is really clever. You can’t even see it when it’s closed.
But then again, without a certain amount of strength, it would be impossible to open it after it has been rusted for so many years.
Lu Qiaoge restored the well mouth to its original state and tidied himself up.
Then he walked quickly towards the gate.
Aunt Bai was carrying two buckets of water, with a smile on her face: "Comrade Xiao Lu, I'm sorry, the water in your house is really delicious. It's a famous sweet water well in our area. We used to come here often to fetch water to drink."
The tabby cat meowed a few times.
[My dear little master, she is lying. It turns out that the hostess of this house has a bad temper. She doesn't like them coming to her house to fetch water at all, and she doesn't keep in touch with the neighbors.]
[The main reason is that his house is large and made of blue bricks and tiles, so he has been reported many times by jealous neighbors, so they don’t usually interact with each other.]
[But I heard from Mrs. Qian that the water in our well is really delicious, just like mountain spring water, sweet.]
