Chapter 107 Entering the Mountains
"My tiger cat is too aggressive, and ordinary leopards can't bite it!"
Su Xiaofan's words last night suddenly resounded in Shi Kai's mind, immediately shocked Shi Kai inexplicably, and unconsciously showed a look of horror in his eyes.
In the ranking of cats, the tiger, the king of beasts, is undoubtedly the first, while the lion is slightly inferior, ranking second. Of course, both of them can be listed as the first grade.
The boss of the second gear is undoubtedly the leopard, and the next is the lynx, which looks inconspicuous but is actually very ferocious. These two animals are easy to deal with a single wolf.
Next, tiger cats and leopard cats are small carnivorous cats. Compared with the above beasts, they are obviously not on the same level.
But even tigers and lions couldn't kill six wild wolves in a very short period of time. At best, they could only drive away the wolves.
Combining what Su Xiaofan said yesterday, and seeing the dried and coagulated blood on the tiger cat's paw, Shi Kai seemed to guess the truth of the matter.
The aggressiveness of this tiger cat is probably far stronger than what Su Xiaofan said. It can kill a pack of wolves in a short time. The attack power of this tiger cat is definitely at the top of the food chain in the Ajin Mountains.
"Brother Shi, what's wrong?"
Seeing Shi Kai's eyes move away from Duobao's body unnaturally, Su Xiaofan knew exactly what he was thinking.
But Su Xiaofan didn't say anything, Duobao's attack power is really amazing, Su Xiaofan doesn't know how to explain it, it can't be said that it is an extraordinary creature.
"Ahem, it's okay, Brother Su, we're going to go deep into the Ajin Mountains later, how about you?"
Shi Kai coughed twice unnaturally, and now he feels chills even after being glanced at by the tiger cat, and he doesn't want to stay here any longer.
And if you want to catch young falcons, you really have to go deep into the Ajin Mountains. Usually falcons nest on the cliffs, but you can’t find the old nests of falcons at the foot of the mountain.
"I'll stay near the military depot for a while to see if I can find some meteorites."
Su Xiaofan thought for a while, took out his mobile phone, and said: "Brother Shi, you should also pay attention on the road. If you encounter this type of meteorite, please put it away for me. I will buy it at a high price later. If you encounter rare ones, the price will be higher." It may be higher than selling falcons!"
Although the speed at which he searches for meteorites is abnormal, Su Xiaofan knows very well that luck is very important in finding this thing.
He has been paying attention to the news about meteorites during this time, and he once saw a report from abroad.
That was a buddy from the British Kingdom. When he was renovating his backyard, he accidentally found a fist-sized, blue glass-like stone.
This buddy didn't think of it as a treasure at the time, so he threw it at home. His son in junior high school saw it and took it to school to show off. He said it was a sapphire. Who knew it was seen by the school's geography teacher. It is suspected that it is a meteorite.
After identification, it turned out to be a lunar meteorite, and it was bought by a private collector for 12 million US dollars that year, which was a sensation.
Su Xiaofan is naturally greedy for this moon meteorite. A glass meteorite weighing 40 to 50 grams will add 50 points of repair value to him. A meteorite the size of a fist must be more than a catty. It is very likely that it will bring Su Xiaofan The harvest of thousands of repair points.
This news made Su Xiaofan very excited, so he immediately asked Tong Dongjie to inquire about the buyer's information, but the price also discouraged him, and he was afraid that he would not be able to get the meteorite for a while.
Before the arrival, Su Xiaofan searched for most of the pictures of rare meteorites, and saved them in his mobile phone, so he can show Shi Kai now.
"The price of meteorites is higher than that of eagles?" Hearing Su Xiaofan's words, Shi Kai's eyes widened.
"It's a rare meteorite, and the number is very rare." Su Xiaofan emphasized, ordinary meteorites are not that valuable, and they have no effect on Su Xiaofan.
"Let me take all these photos of you."
Shi Kai took out his mobile phone, and there was no signal when he arrived at this place, and the pictures could not be sent, so he had to take pictures and save them in his mobile phone.
"By the way, Brother Su, do you want these wolf skins?"
After taking the photo, Shi Kai pointed to the dead wolves on the ground and said, "These things are only worth the skin, and the fangs can be kept as ornaments."
"Give me a few wolf teeth, and the wolf skin is fine." Su Xiaofan shook his head with a smile, and said, "Brother Shi, these wolves are not protecting animals, right?"
"What kind of protected animals are they?"
Shi Kai curled his lips and said: "When the mountains are covered by heavy snow, these wolves often attack the herdsmen. Those departments are eager for someone to kill them."
"Yes, killing wolves is not against the law." Batur said next to him, he has the most say in this matter. In the past, the sheep raised by his family were often killed by wolves and dragged away.
Seeing that Su Xiaofan didn't want these wolves, Shi Kai didn't show any politeness, and got busy with a few of his subordinates. They were very skilled at skinning, and within half an hour, all six wolves were skinned.
In Shi Kai’s words, two wolf skins can make a wolf skin mattress, and the wolf skin mattress has special effects on rheumatism and cold resistance, so it’s no problem to sell it for 10,000 to 20,000 yuan.
Find a pit to bury the **** wolf corpses, Shi Kai sprinkled some dry lime outside to cover up the smell of blood, and then handed the eight wolf fangs to Su Xiaofan.
In a wolf's mouth, there are only four fangs that can be used to make wolf fang ornaments. The eight fangs Shi Kai selected are the largest and the most beautiful among the wolves.
"Okay, Brother Su, let's go first."
After finishing these tasks, Shi Kai greeted Su Xiaofan, took his three comrades into the car, and drove all the way to the Ajin Mountains.
In fact, this military depot is already the starting point of the Ajin Mountains. After driving another 50 to 60 kilometers, we will enter the mountain. At that time, the car can only be parked outside and climb the mountain with our feet.
"Su, it, killed?"
After Shi Kai and others left, Batur pointed to the tiger cat and asked, what Shi Kai could see, Batur could also see.
"It wasn't killed by killing, Duobao's claws are very long." Su Xiaofan beckoned, and Duobao jumped into his arms.
Picking up Duobao's forelegs, Su Xiaofan said angrily: "Other cats like to be clean, so you should lick their paws too, it will be bloody."
Following Su Xiaofan's words, Duobao's paws covered with pads suddenly stretched out a few sharp claws forward, and under the sunlight, they actually showed a metallic color.
"This, this claw is too long, is it still a cat?"
Looking at Duobao's retracted claws, Batur was stunned. Where are the claws, they are simply daggers. Now Batur knows how these wolves died.
"It's a cat, a tiger cat, but it's not an ordinary tiger cat, Batur, don't tell anyone about it."
Su Xiaofan didn't have any precautions against Batur. He knew that Batur was a man of few words during this journey, and he would never tell the story of Humao to show off.
"I know." Batur nodded heavily, looking at Duobao with curiosity in his eyes.
"Driving the car over here, we've been staying here for the last few days."
The area where the barracks is located is very open, with Ajin Shanmao in the front, Gobi Desert in the back, and plains on the left and right. Su Xiaofan believes that there should be a lot of meteorite fragments here.
The temperature here is below zero all year round, and the altitude is about 3,000 meters. The air is thin, and those meteorite hunters will definitely not come here to pick up meteorites.
After Batur drove the car over, Su Xiaofan took out the python jerky and shared some with Batur and the tiger cat.
Both Su Xiaofan and Humao ate about two catties, but Batur couldn’t eat more than half a catty. These jerky python meat contains the energy of extraordinary creatures, and ordinary people will feel bloated after eating it.
After breakfast, Su Xiaofan was ready to search for meteorites, but Batur stopped him and said, "Do you want me to accompany you?"
"You guard our supplies."
Su Xiaofan shook his head. He searched for meteorites by using the repair system to check them. After filtering out meteorites from the information like a waterfall, it would be useless for Batur to follow him.
"Okay, we have something to do, shoot!" Batur handed a shotgun to Su Xiaofan.
"It's okay, Duobao is here, nothing will happen." Su Xiaofan didn't connect the shotgun, he had never played with it before, and it was still in the way if it went off.
Glancing at the tiger cat lying on Su Xiaofan's shoulder, Batur nodded, he can eliminate the existence of a pack of wolves at once, even in the Dark Gold Mountains, he is the creature at the top of the food chain.
Centering on the abandoned military depot, Su Xiaofan led the tiger cat and began to search.
In this uninhabited place, there are not many small animals, and there is no danger of poisonous snakes and other creatures in the low temperature. Su Xiaofan can concentrate all his attention in his mind.
As long as Su Xiaofan is willing, basically everything he sees can be displayed in the restoration system.
However, those land rubbles have no restoration value, and the amount of information is huge. What Su Xiaofan has to do is to find meteorites in the information.
The number of meteorites on the earth is actually far beyond people's predictions. I don't know how many meteorites have hit the earth for countless years. Many mountains and rivers and landforms are formed due to meteorite impacts.
In this place where no meteorite hunter has set foot, the number of meteorites is beyond Su Xiaofan's imagination. In just one morning, he found more than ten meteorites, and he only walked less than one kilometer.
It's a pity that these more than ten pieces are ordinary meteorites and iron meteorites, which cannot provide him with repair value.
Back to the military depot at noon, Batur cooked a pot of hot soup and ate some jerky python meat, Su Xiaofan took the tiger cat to search again.
Su Xiaofan expanded the search area to five kilometers away, and the harvest also became more. Su Xiaofan picked up two meteorites that were shown to be absorbable.
The two meteorites are not big, the larger one is shaped like black jade, only the size of a thumb, while the smaller one is only about the size of a fingernail, with the color of golden sand shining on it.
An object of this size, if Su Xiaofan hadn’t had a repair system, I’m afraid the only way to find it would be to lie on the ground and search inch by inch.
【Magnetic Meteorite: Absorbable. Is it absorbed? 】
【Black Diamond Meteorite: Absorbable, can it be absorbed? 】
These two meteorites are the first time Su Xiaofan has seen them, which also shows that not only solar storm factor meteorites and moon Mars meteorites can provide repair value, but other rare meteorites can also increase repair value.
"absorb!"
The effect of rare meteorites on Su Xiaofan is to increase the repair value. Naturally, he will not keep them unused. After finding two absorbable meteorites, Su Xiaofan immediately chose to repair them.
【Repair value: 15 points! 】
【Repair value: 25 points! 】
As the two meteorites in his palm turned into ashes, the repair value points in Su Xiaofan's mind also changed.
The magnetic gold meteorite added two repair points to Su Xiaofan, while the black diamond meteorite added ten points, and Su Xiaofan's repair value increased to twenty-five points.
"Still too little!"
To accumulate the Great Zhoutian Kung Fu once, it needs 100 repair points, Su Xiaofan is still far behind, and his goal this time is to increase the repair value to more than 100 points.
Although the meteorites found did not increase the number of points, it also gave Su Xiaofan hope.
Perhaps it is because most of the land here is permafrost. After the meteorite hit the ground, it was crushed quite badly. There are many common iron meteorites and stone meteorites scattered on the surface.
During the first day, Su Xiaofan only found two rare meteorites, but found a backpack of ordinary meteorites, weighing hundreds of kilograms.
Since they came out under the guise of meteorite hunter, Su Xiaofan also collected some ordinary meteorites of relatively good quality, and prepared to take them out later.
Although Shi Kai and others left, Su Xiaofan and Batur lit a bonfire at night.
The Gobi Desert is not as barren as imagined. There are many dry camel thorns, red willows and other plants, and they are very resistant to fire.
In the materials Tong Dongjie prepared for Su Xiaofan, there are still a lot of solid fuel, as long as two pieces are put in, it is enough to burn overnight.
When Su Xiaofan was searching for meteorites, Batur was not idle either. He collected a lot of licorice and Azalea dates, and stewed a pot of hot soup.
In addition to the giant python meat for the tiger cat at night, what Su Xiaofan and Batur ate were the quick-heating food they brought. I don’t know how long they will stay here. Su Xiaofan should try his best to ensure the food for the tiger cat.
There was a tiger cat vigil at night, Batur didn't volunteer, he got into the tent sleeping bag when it was dark, and Su Xiaofan meditated all night.
Although I feel that my cultivation base has increased, compared with the little Zhoutian who has been cultivated, the progress of this growth is too slow. Su Xiaofan is also looking forward to more repair values, so that his own Great Zhoutian skills can also be accumulated. Raise to the limit.
The next day Su Xiaofan expanded his search range again, searching all the ground within a radius of ten kilometers.
The result is not good or bad, Su Xiaofan's repair value has increased by another fifteen points, and now it has reached forty points.
The ordinary meteorites in the carriage were hundreds of kilograms more.
Tong Dongjie is right. No man’s land is indeed a virgin land for meteorites. Ordinary meteorites are very common. Su Xiaofan can find one almost every 100 meters.
But the reason why rare meteorites are rare is that their number is extremely rare. Today Su Xiaofan only found three pieces in total.
After staying here for more than ten days, Su Xiaofan searched all the places within a radius of 50 kilometers around the military station, and the farthest he even ran into the Ajin Mountains with his feet.
In the current military depot, there are all kinds of meteorites piled up everywhere, the big one weighs over a hundred kilograms, the small one is only the size of a fist, some smaller pieces of meteorites, Su Xiaofan simply doesn’t bother to pick them up.
The meteorites in the military depot now weigh at least three or four tons. Su Xiaofan needs to pick out some of the more valuable ones to take away, and the rest can only be thrown here.
Not to mention, although some meteorites cannot increase the repair value, they are expensive in themselves. From the perspective of meteorite collection, they are also considered rare.
Su Xiaofan calculated that the meteorites he found could also be sold for three to four million.
Of course, there is no such meteorite trading environment in China, and if you want to realize it, you still have to get foreign transactions.
【Repair value: 96 points! 】
As for the rare meteorites that can increase the repair value, Su Xiaofan has also found quite a few, and now the repair value in his mind is already ninety-six points.
It is only four points away from 100 points of repair value. During these ten days, Su Xiaofan discovered that there is no rule at all in finding rare meteorites, it all depends on luck.
Sometimes Su Xiaofan can find rare meteorites that can absorb and increase thirty points in one day, but sometimes there is nothing in two or three days.
But generally speaking, Su Xiaofan is still satisfied, and the number of rare meteorites has exceeded his estimate.
Now Su Xiaofan has only searched a radius of 50 kilometers, and has increased the repair value by more than 80 points. If the Ajin Mountains are all searched, how much will the repair value increase in his mind?
As time went by, the climate became colder and colder, and sometimes it was more than ten degrees below zero at night. Fortunately, with the logistics support of Batur, Su Xiaofan could still eat hot meals every day.
"Batur, I want to enter the Ajin Mountains!"
Sitting by the bonfire, Su Xiaofan said: "I will go deep into the Ajin Mountains in the next few days. You can wait for me here, or you can go back to Qianghuang County first."
Frequently searching these days, Su Xiaofan deeply felt the danger of no man's land, not to mention the lack of oxygen in the plateau, the oxygen content here is only about 50% of that outside.
The most frustrating thing is the weather, Su Xiaofan has experienced sudden hailstorms and a sudden drop in temperature during these ten days.
One moment the sun was overhead, the next moment pea-sized hail fell from the sky, and a sudden temperature difference of 20 degrees in just one or two hours was even more unusual.
In the past few days, Su Xiaofan also encountered bears wandering on the Gobi Desert twice, once a pack of wolves, and there was no shortage of food, Su Xiaofan didn't bother to kill them, and each time he used his miraculous movement to dodge them far away up.
During these more than ten days in the wild, Su Xiaofan's agility has improved a lot. He feels that if he goes further, he may be able to shrink the ground to an inch, but he can save 30 repair points to cultivate.
However, it still takes five hours for Su Xiaofan to run the Great Zhoutian Kung Fu once, which is still far behind the six minutes of the Little Zhoutian Kung Fu. Su Xiaofan feels that if he wants to practice the Great Zhou Tian Kung Fu to the extreme, it will take at least twenty or thirty years of effort.
That is to say, Su Xiaofan has opened up the Great Zhoutian meridian, so he can toss around here. He feels that if he came in as Little Zhoutian, he would definitely not be able to survive in the wild for three days.
Even so, with Su Xiaofan's physique, he would feel very tired after walking for a day. He didn't think Batur had the ability to go deep into the Ajin Mountains with him.
"I'll go in with you!" Batur shook his head and said, "I am the guide. I can't let you go by yourself!"
"It's safe for me to go in by myself." Su Xiaofan shook his head and said, "If I take you with me, I will be in danger, Batur, I told my friend the truth!"
Su Xiaofan knows that Batur has a straight temper, and he won't be angry if you tell the truth. On the contrary, if you cheat him, you definitely don't even have to be friends.
"Then, I'll wait for you here!" Hearing Su Xiaofan's words, Batur said in a low voice, but he was not unconvinced.
Before Batur went out with Su Xiaofan for a day, he originally thought that his skills and experience in surviving in no-man's land could help Su Xiaofan a little.
But what Batuer didn't expect was that, let alone helping, he couldn't even keep up with Su Xiaofan's speed. He couldn't even see Su Xiaofan's shadow within five minutes after leaving the military depot.
Batur is a more pragmatic person, and he has no intention of competing with Su Xiaofan, so these days he stays honestly in the military depot to protect Su Xiaofan's logistics.
"You drive me to the mountain pass tomorrow, and then you drive the car back. I only bring food, water, fuel, and sleeping bags and tents!"
Su Xiaofan thought for a while, and classified the things he wanted to take away.
The jerky meat of the python must be brought. After so many days of consumption, there are still more than 100 catties left. Adding water, fuel and tents, the total load is more than 200 catties. It does not affect Su Xiaofan much. big.
Early the next morning, Batur sent Su Xiaofan to the mountain pass, carrying a backpack almost as tall as his own, Su Xiaofan started the road up the mountain.
The Ajin Mountains are not the kind of abrupt and high peaks, but rather undulating mountains. The altitude gradually increases, so the field of vision presented to Su Xiaofan is still very broad.
Different from the foot of the mountain, walking up the mountain range, the daytime temperature drops directly below zero, the ground is covered with hard permafrost, and some perennial snow can be seen everywhere, and the oxygen content is much lower.
"Those buddies, being able to stay here for so many days is amazing."
Thinking that those people from Shi Kai never showed up, Su Xiaofan felt a little admirable. This kind of environment made him feel a little uncomfortable, let alone ordinary people.
On the other hand, the little tiger cat didn't feel any discomfort in this environment. It followed Su Xiaofan back and forth, and Su Xiaofan didn't pay attention. This little guy caught a rabbit from nowhere.
"Eat it yourself."
Seeing the tiger cat offering treasure, Su Xiaofan couldn't help laughing, he had just had breakfast before coming here, and he didn't bother to roast the rabbit, so he just let the tiger cat eat it by himself.
Unlike the Gobi Desert where there are some weeds and gravel, after entering the mountain, Su Xiaofan found that the ground is almost all hard brown permafrost, and occasionally rocks can be seen, but the gravel is basically invisible, and the plants are also Very rare.
Su Xiaofan was not disappointed, because in just over an hour after entering the mountain, Su Xiaofan found more than ten meteorites, including a rare meteorite that could be absorbed.
【Repair value: 99 points! 】
Seeing that the repair value has increased by three points, Su Xiaofan is very satisfied. He is now on a gentle slope, and the meteorites are all found at the bottom of the slope, obviously rolling down from the slope.
In addition to the rare meteorite that has increased by three points, two of the meteorites are also quite valuable, and can be sold for fifty or sixty thousand yuan.
"There should be meteorites under every hillside!" This discovery made Su Xiaofan excited for a while.
Different from the Gobi Desert outside, meteorites cannot be stored in places with slopes, and a gust of wind may blow them down. It is much easier to search for meteorites here than outside.
