Qin Lang had been here before the Dulong Peninsula was built, and Qin Lang had found something interesting there. But the timing was not right, so Qin Lang did not conduct an in-depth investigation. But now, the Poisonous Dragon Peninsula was surrounded by high walls, and Qin Lang's understanding of Feng Shui formations and spiritual veins had increased. Therefore, it was time to carefully investigate the mysterious crack that the Fire Spirit Snow Fox had discovered.
In the past, Qin Lang's attainments in Feng Shui and spiritual veins were not enough, so he could not figure out what good things were under the crack. Today, Qin Lang had brought Duan Zhangye here to prove his conjecture.
After returning to Hua Xia, Qin Lang carefully analyzed the Dulong Peninsula's Feng Shui. He felt that the Dulong Peninsula should not be a place without any vitality. The reason why there was not even a blade of grass growing here should be because there was something underground that affected the Feng Shui and spiritual veins.
The whole Dulong Peninsula was connected to the primeval forest, like a black dragon plunging into the sea. This should be a good Feng Shui layout, and there should be spiritual veins passing through here. But whether it was the last time or this time, Qin Lang did not feel the existence of spiritual veins, which meant that there was something wrong with the island, and it was not a simple barren island.
"Mr. Yin, the geology of this place is very strange." Duan Zhangye also felt that this place was different, "There seems to be no vitality here, no wonder people feel so desperate."
"Yes, these stones make people feel even more desperate." Qin Lang stepped on the black reef on the ground.
Although Duan Zhangye was in the pharmaceutical business, it was just a cover. The Duan Family's real business was the mining of spiritual stone veins, so this guy was very knowledgeable in geology. He bent down to carefully look at the black reef under his feet and said, "Mr. Yin, this reef is very hard. This reminds me of the Duan Family's spiritual stone veins. "
"Oh?" Qin Lang was obviously interested. Although he had already guessed that there was something wrong with the reef under his feet, he did not expect that there would be a spiritual stone vein below.
Of course, if it was a spiritual stone vein, then it would be a great fortune! However, the prerequisite was that he had to be able to move these steel-like reefs.
"Mister Yin, this is just my guess. After the Spirit Stone Vein is formed, it will affect the surrounding geology. The most obvious point is that it will make the surrounding soil abnormally firm. This is equivalent to a 'self-protection mechanism' of the Spirit Stone Vein, because only by making the soil outside as hard as steel will the Spirit Stone Vein's Spirit Qi not leak out. The quality of the Spirit Stones will also become higher and higher, and at the same time, it will be harder for people to discover. The reef rocks here are even harder than the rocks outside our Duan Family's Spirit Stone Vein, so I guess it might be a Spirit Stone Vein, but we'll have to mine some samples to know. "Duan Zhangye's tone was also a little excited. The Duan Clan's Spirit Stone Vein had almost been mined out. If they could continue mining here, he might be able to use his martial arts again.
Duan Zhangye knew that Qin Lang had taken in his family of three mostly because Duan Xuening had saved that "cat demon". Otherwise, this "Mister Yin", who used to be an assassin, would not have been so easy to talk to. Now that he had decided to settle down here, Duan Zhangye felt that it was better for him to show some of his value. This way, it would be logical for him to make requests to the other party in the future.
Duan Zhangye did not have much ambition or desire, but he still had some ordinary requests, such as elixirs that could improve the body's functions, increase the realm of martial arts, help his daughter embark on the path of a cultivator in the future, increase her ability to protect herself, and so on. In order to achieve these requests, Duan Zhangye had to firmly tie himself to the other party's chariot.
Based on the current situation, Duan Zhangye felt that this "Mister Yin"'s chariot should be the most powerful and worthy of his attachment.
As for money, Duan Zhangye did not lack it. As the saying goes, a crafty rabbit has three burrows. Even those lowly corrupt officials of Hua Xia knew to open two overseas bank accounts, so how could Duan Zhangye not know that the money was enough for his family to live a carefree life? However, Duan Zhangye knew a lot of people. He knew that if he wanted to live a happy life, he needed more than just money. Money was important, but it was more important to have the life to spend it.
If he had the life to spend it, he must have the ability to protect himself.
"Yes, the rocks here are too hard. Even the best drill would have a hard time drilling through them, let alone mining them on a large scale." Qin Lang had tried using his Gang Qi before. Although Gang Qi could indeed cut through these rocks, it could only cut a little. If Qin Lang used his full strength, he might be able to get a few Spirit Stones out, but it would definitely be a thankless task. As for mining on a large scale, that was even more impossible.
"Don't worry, Mister Yin. I have a way." Duan Zhangye knew that it was time for him to show his skills.
Qin Lang chuckled. He remembered that the Duan Family used to do this. It seemed that Duan Zhangye had a way to deal with these rocks.
Moreover, brute force was not the way to deal with these rocks. In addition to using a drill, there were also strong acid corrosion, blasting, and other technological methods.
"It seems that high-tech methods are still useful. Recently, I've been relying too much on the raw power released by my body." Qin Lang muttered.
"Heh, high-tech methods won't work." Duan Zhangye smiled. "In order to mine the mineral vein, our Duan Family racked our brains and used all kinds of high-tech methods. We tried drills, strong acid, and blasting, but it was useless. In fact, even those immortal masters didn't have a good way to mine the Spirit Stones. In the end, we used the oldest mining method. "
Duan Zhangye's so-called oldest mining method was indeed quite ancient. Before the invention of gunpowder, large-scale projects in ancient times were carried out using this method —
Fire to boil water!
Boiling water was the crystallization of the wisdom of the ancient people. It was to use a big fire to heat up the ore, and then pour cold water on it, making use of the ore's sudden thermal expansion and contraction to produce cracks. This method seemed very primitive and clumsy, but it was very practical and worked on many rocks. The Duan Family used many advanced methods, but they couldn't mine the Spirit Stones. Later, they got this primitive method from somewhere, and it turned out to be very useful.
Perhaps, because the primitive method of boiling water borrowed the power of nature, it could have some impact on the Spirit Qi of these ores.
After listening to Duan Zhangye's method, Qin Lang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. But as long as the method worked, it didn't matter if it was primitive or advanced.
Qin Lang got some gasoline and chose one of the reef rocks as a test subject. He burned the rock with gasoline violently. When the temperature of the reef rock rose to a certain degree, Qin Lang poured seawater on it.
Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack!
The sound of the rock cracking was heard, and dense cracks appeared on the surface of the rock.
