Xu Yang strolled in the mountains and forests.

The green here tends to be dark green, and it doesn't feel that bright.

The sound of insects chirping is endless.

It was noon and the temperature was a bit high. Xu Yang took off his coat and rolled up his sleeves to feel a little cooler.

He ate two pieces of beef jerky and two bars of concentrated chocolate to replenish his energy.

No matter how good his endurance is, the physical energy consumed is real and must be replenished in time.

Otherwise the body can’t keep up.

The road was a bit difficult to walk on. Xu Yang had a machete in his hand and had to cut the vines in front of him from time to time before he could move forward.

Sometimes after taking a few steps, a circle of vines will be wrapped around your calves, which also need to be cut off in time.

This is the Insect Valley shrouded in mist in the deep mountains of Yunnan.

The hot and humid climate makes the environment here very dangerous.

After Xu Yang entered the dense forest, he chose to use the treasure hunting compass for the first time.

With the guidance of the treasure hunting compass, the first treasure spot was soon marked out.

Xu Yang didn't know what the treasure in this area might be.

It could be mountain products, or it could be some rare animal.

He hurried towards the treasure location.

When he arrived at the place, Xu Yang noticed that it was a stone.

He saw what appeared to be green crystals on the stone.

So Xu Yang squatted down and picked out the stone.

After a simple analysis, this thing can be displayed in the live broadcast room.

Xu Yang picked up the stone and said:

"Look everyone, there are good things. We are lucky to go into the mountains today."

"This is a green beryl. If the image was more intact, it would be an emerald."

"In the mountains of Yunnan, if you find a good quality emerald, you can become rich overnight."

"But the probability is extremely low, almost impossible."

The stone in Xu Yang's hand was a piece of rock with green long crystals embedded in it.

Unfortunately, there is only a little green part, which is not enough to make you rich overnight.

When netizens saw the green color on the stone, they questioned:
[Old Xu, isn't this just wine bottle fragments embedded in the stone? ]

[It’s made of the same material as my essential oil bottle! ]

[What emerald? It's a compound! ]

[I found a treasure again? I don’t believe it! ]

No one wants Xu Yang to pick up the treasure now.

Xu Yang didn't say much about this.

Emerald is known as the king of gemstones and its price is extremely high as long as it is genuine.

And the place of production is in Yunnan.

"There are many strange minerals here. Some are suitable for collection, and some are even suitable for grinding precious pigments."

“Natural mineral pigments are much more expensive than synthetic pigments and produce much better results.”

"For example, the famous 'A Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains', the greatest blue-green landscape painting in China, was created using ground mineral pigments."

Xu Yang looked at the mountain range and made his judgment.

Different mountains have different styles.

After seeing so many mountains, Xu Yang had a deep feeling about this.

"I came here today to see if there are any precious minerals."

"So far, I've been lucky. I came across an emerald rough stone right at the beginning."

“I hope there will be great gains later.”

Because of the stone, the atmosphere in the live broadcast room became a little more relaxed.

But the surrounding environment is still gloomy.

Xu Yang continued to walk forward, with the live camera filming the surroundings.

At this moment, the drone's camera suddenly moved, slowly shifting to the right to capture the situation on the right.

The drone has the function of motion capture. If something moves, it will capture it and present it.

Xu Yang didn't notice any unusual movements.

However, netizens could see it clearly that the grass was clearly shaking slightly.

[Why is the camera moving? What is there? ]

[I didn’t see it. Is there something wrong with the drone’s camera? ]

[It seems there is something! ]

[Come closer to Old Xu! ]

At this time, Xu Yang also noticed the unusual movements nearby.

"what happened?"

Xu Yang looked to the side. It didn't matter what he saw, even he was shocked.

"Oh my god, what a big snake!"

"It's a python!"

All I saw was a python thicker than a human arm jumping out from the bushes.

In fact, a python of this size just looks scary, but it does not pose a great threat to humans.

There was a news report before about a man who got drunk and got into a fight with a python on the roadside. They were entangled with each other and were later untangled by someone. The man didn't know what was going on.

There are a lot of snakes here, and there are a lot of news about snakes.

For example, some people say that they can hear breathing sounds at home, which is particularly strange, so they ask for help from netizens.

A knowledgeable netizen gave her some scientific advice and said that there was nothing wrong, there were just mice in her house, and a snake got into her house, ate a few mice and then left.

When Xu Yang saw the python, he was just surprised at how big the snake was and was not very scared.

At this time, netizens also saw it clearly.

A very long python with mottled patterns, slowly wriggling.

Seeing this scene, many people suffered cardiac arrest.

No matter whether this thing is dangerous or not, the fact that it looks like this is scary enough.

The barrage exploded.

[Oh my god! Oh my god!] [Python! There’s a big python!]

[Oh my god, what kind of place is this? It's so scary! ]

[Oh my god, is this a real python? Where is the host? ]

The audience in the live broadcast room was completely frightened by the python.

Many people stared with their eyes wide open, covering their mouths, their eyes full of fear.

Who would have thought there would be something like this in the woods!

Let me put it this way, even a grass snake as thick as a hemp rope is something that people are terribly afraid of.

Not to mention such a big python with stripes all over its body and even visible traces of scales.

"It's okay, it's just a python. Pythons are not poisonous and they don't bite people."

"At most, it will just entangle you."

"No need to be afraid."

Xu Yang saw the situation in the live broadcast room and comforted them.

However, the fear cannot be dispelled by just a few words, and the barrage of comments continues to roll.

The giant python was just passing by and got along peacefully with Xu Yang.

Xu Yang watched it go away and said with emotion:
"This giant python is only found in the south. I heard that the anacondas in the tropical rain forest are even bigger and can eat humans."

"We don't see snakes that big over there."

Having said that, he continued on his way.

The surrounding environment is still a bit depressing.

Netizens are still in shock about encountering a python.

Brown bear, python.
For ordinary people, coming into this place is no different from seeking death.

Xu Yang has used the treasure-hunting compass to start looking for the second treasure location.

This time he found a sky blue ore. He picked it up and looked at it, but couldn't make out anything about it.

"This ore has a very peculiar color, and it is buried in the shallows near the river."

“But I haven’t come into contact with this thing.”

"Does anyone know?"

Xu Yang asked.

After hearing Xu Yang's words, some knowledgeable netizens responded:

[It is a heterochromatic ore, and few people collect it. It is best to grind it into pigment. ]

[This is not cheap, it costs tens of thousands. ]

[It is a niche product, some people play with it, but it is not easy to sell. ]

After seeing these explanations, Xu Yang roughly understood.

From this perspective, most of the mountain products from Ailao Mountain are minerals.

Moreover, the prices of most ores are not too high, so it is not easy to find good goods.

Xu Yang continued to walk inside, and around three o'clock in the afternoon, the thick fog rose again.

The temperature begins to drop rapidly.

The woods are still eerie.

He raised his head and glanced into the depths of the forest.

"I am still outside the Ailao Mountains and have not entered the real deep mountains."

“Previous bloggers also only operated outside the Ailao Mountains.”

"The real danger in Ailao Mountain lies in the deep mountain areas, where the temperature difference is large and there is miasma in the air."

"So, the danger deep in the Ailao Mountains is purely due to nature, and has little to do with those weird things."

Xu Yang explained to everyone.

It is difficult to enter the deep mountains.

Because it is not suitable for human survival.

It was too cold at night, the roads were difficult to walk on, and there was miasma.

Xu Yang planned to complete two treasure hunting missions and then withdraw.

Many rational netizens responded in the live broadcast room:
[Indeed, the temperature difference between day and night is huge. It is very hot during the day and very cold at night. Ordinary people would definitely not be able to survive in the mountains! ]

[Sweating all day and freezing to death at night, it is easy to die of hypothermia! ]

[Climbing a mountain is very tiring. Only those who can go into the mountains are tough people! ]

[As soon as I saw the brown bears and pythons, I knew I would never go there in my life! ]

This live broadcast is very meaningful.

Xu Yang showed everyone what Ailao Mountain really looks like.

It is nothing more than a mountain that is not suitable for human activities, but it is shrouded in mystery by many people.

The key is that everyone likes to believe this.

Xu Yang chooses to trigger the treasure hunt mission:

[Trigger treasure hunt mission: take a photo with the green peacock! ]

[Task Description: Get close to the green peacock and take a photo with it.]

[Task Reward: Emerald*1]

When Xu Yang heard the task prompt, a hint of joy appeared on his face.

There are not only dangerous wild beasts in Ailao Mountain, but also many other animals.

For example, the green peacock, white pheasant, white-bellied pheasant, leopard cat, red muntjac, etc.

The green peacock is also a national first-class protected animal.

"It's finally an animal that makes people feel more at ease."

"The reward is not bad either."

After receiving the task, Xu Yang continued to move closer to the green peacock.

He really likes the feeling of completing tasks in the mountains and forests.

Challenge, excitement, reward.
Every time I go into the mountains, what I look forward to most is the treasure hunt mission.

Netizens didn’t know where he was going, and everyone was still a little worried as they looked at the surrounding environment.

This place looks like a scene from Tomb Robbers' Chronicles, eerie and empty.

In fact, it is because everyone has heard too many stories and has filled Ailao Mountain with a horror filter in their minds.

This place is just a mountain range that is not suitable for human survival. (End of this chapter)
