The strongest miner in the universe

Chapter 555
Checking the surrounding spirit wood, the surface of the spirit wood is full of wounds. If there are Ganoderma lucidum spores floating over, they can parasitize on these wounds.

"I don't know when the little ganoderma will grow!" Gao Jiuding sighed. Although he has planted a lot of ganoderma in his pagoda, he has never planted it himself. He really has no experience.

After walking out of the dark ditch, Gao Jiuding saw Yihu, and his work should be completed.

Yihu planted [-] acres of spiritual valleys, and the workload was much greater than Gao Jiuding's. However, his speed was fast, and he would often come to help Gao Jiuding after the work on his side was finished.

"I don't need to weed today, I'm watering the ground! Let's go to the mountains over there to see later. If we can find iron ore, we can also refine a few iron pots, saving us from having to stew a dozen times every time we eat! "Gao Jiuding stopped, and said Yihu who wanted to help in the field.

"Looking for iron ore? Are you still looking for ore?" Maverick looked at Gao Jiuding in shock and said.

Gao Jiuding laughed and said: "Do you think those monsters of the Yaozu are my grandsons? If they don't have any skills, they can make my young master eat and drink, and raise him fat for nothing?"

"Really, when I first met you, I thought you were some kind of young master!" Yi Hu rubbed his head, a little embarrassed.

"Then why didn't you think so later?" Gao Jiuding asked with a smile.

"You still have to ask? Whose young master will dig mines hard by himself? And dig with a bald scrap iron pickaxe? Don't you dig by yourself, and don't know how to run after digging? Waiting to be caught Someone snatch it?" Maverick said directly.

Gao Jiuding was speechless, this is really the case.

"No wonder, you can dig out 100 yuan of low-grade spirit stones in six days. It turns out that you know how to find ores. This is a great skill. With this kind of ability, why are we looking for iron ore? Go to the spirit stone veins to dig spirit stones." !” Maverick said with his eyes shining.

Gao Jiuding shook his head directly, is Lingshi so easy to dig?

"You don't need to do anything, just point out the place, and I'll dig!" Yihu thought Gao Jiuding was afraid of suffering!

Gao Jiuding smiled wryly and said: "That is the spiritual vein of the sect, where there is a spirit stone, it is actually easy to measure it, that is the spiritual vein, is there anyone who knows more about the direction of the spiritual vein than the sect? "

"Then let's go look for the spirit stone veins!" Maverick immediately said.

Gao Jiuding raised his forehead: "Where to find it? On the mountain, or in the sea? That's death, okay? Let's go, don't dream, let's find some iron ore!"

"Where can I find it? The iron ore is buried underground!" Maverick said hesitantly.

Gao Jiuding took out the map and said, "Here, here, and here, there may be mines in these places!"

"This is the Red River Valley, and this is the Black Demon Mountain. Why did you find such a poor place?" Yihu was also familiar with the Zongmen map, and he knew where Gao Jiuding wanted to go just by looking at it!

"Go and have a look and you'll know. It's not difficult to find mines. As long as you know how to do it, there are many clues that show where there are mines!" Gao Jiuding said with a smile.

Finding some mineral deposits around Zongmen should bring some benefits, and by the way, dispel Zongmen's suspicion of him.

In fact, when he came to Zongmen, Gao Jiuding thought of his possible flaws, such as thin skin and tender flesh, such as lack of life experience, and farming, etc., he didn't quite understand.

Even if he knows how to farm scientifically, his theoretical knowledge is hundreds of miles away from the farmers here, but it still cannot dispel others' suspicion of him.

How can a city kid want to act like a rural kid?Therefore, Gao Jiuding is tinkering with the character design!

No matter where you go, skilled workers have an advantage over coolies!
He just wants to transfer to a technical post now, otherwise, as a handyman, he doesn't know when he will be able to get ahead!
Whether it is the Red Water River Valley or the Black Demon Mountain, they are all [-] kilometers away from the sect, and they cannot fly. They can only go to one place at a time simply by running!
Gao Jiuding first chose the Black Devil Mountain, because there is no vegetation there, so if there is anything he wants, he can just go and have a look.

Following a winding mountain road in the mountains, Gao Jiuding and Yihu arrived directly in front of the Black Devil Mountain!

When he arrived at the destination, Gao Jiuding saw that he had come to the right place.

It was pitch black, not a single blade of grass grew, it was too obvious, those black minerals there, what is it but coal?
However, the coal mines here are a little different from the coal mines on Earth.

How is coal formed?This has long been understood by some people. Coal is the remains of plants, which are transformed into sedimentary organic minerals through biochemical and physical chemical actions. It is a mixture of various polymer compounds and minerals.

To put it bluntly, coal was formed by a large number of plants buried in the ground hundreds of millions of years ago, and the coal mines here are naturally no exception.

Compared with the earth, the environment of the demon star is much better. Up to now, the demon star is still full of forests!

Just like Iron Sword Gate, it is completely a mountain villa hidden in the forest.

For countless years, how many trees have grown on the demon star?Moreover, these trees grew up after being bathed in the ocean of spiritual energy for a long time.

It's been a long time, no matter how poor his aptitude is, how can he absorb some spiritual energy?
Therefore, the coal here is not ordinary coal, but has a little aura, which is an obvious spiritual mine!

"What's the use of this thing? We don't make alchemy, we don't make weapons, so what are we looking for for charcoal?" Looking at Gao Jiuding's non-stop research on the black coal, Yi Hu asked with a strange expression on his face.

"Who said we don't refine weapons?" Gao Jiuding turned his head and left after picking up a lot of loose charcoal by the side of the road.

The coal here has been developed for many years, and it belongs to the owner, so there is no need for Gao Jiuding to explore it.

"Let's go, let's go to Hongshui River Valley!" Gao Jiuding was a little worried at this moment.

With such an obvious feature of the red water, no one would have discovered the iron ore over there, right?

Or, the situation there is very special, there is no iron ore at all?

Gao Jiuding is only half-knowledgeable, he doesn't know how to find iron ore at all, but he knows that iron oxide is red, and earthy hematite is red.

If there is hematite in the ground, it will be brought out by groundwater, and red rivers will be formed.

The reason why Gao Jiuding knew about this was because of a piece of news that was said to have been discovered in Australia's largest iron mine.

Australia is the largest exporter of iron ore on the planet, and its total reserves are estimated to be around 1000 billion tons. However, before the 20s, Australians always believed that their iron ore resources were scarce, so they banned the export of iron ore.

But in 1952, Hancock, an Australian farmer, and his wife took a private plane to Perth, the capital of Western Australia, when they encountered heavy rain on the way and strayed into a huge canyon.

They accidentally discovered that the cliffs on both sides of the canyon were like rust, and the flood caused by the heavy rain was even more blood red.

With such obvious characteristics, they naturally saw a large amount of iron ore. As a result, they discovered the largest iron ore deposit in the world so far, which changed the pattern of iron ore in Australia and even the world in one fell swoop.

Therefore, when looking for mineral deposits, Gao Jiuding first thought of the landmark Hongshui River Valley near Zongmen!
The situation in the Red Water River Valley is very similar to the iron ore canyon discovered in Australia. If no iron ore can be found in this place, Gao Jiuding can give up.

After another burst of desperate running, Gao Jiuding was a little disappointed when he saw a small red stream.

Following the small stream, he kept looking forward, even if Gao Jiuding released his consciousness, he did not find any iron ore.

"This Hongshui River is too small, isn't it?" Gao Jiuding's heart sank. If there is iron ore here, it is impossible that there is no iron ore in the water.

"You said there are iron mines here?" Yi Hu looked at Gao Jiuding strangely and asked.

Gao Jiuding reached out and stirred the stream, and even grabbed a handful of sand, but there was no iron sand in it.

"Prospecting, prospecting, if you can find it easily, why use me to prospect?" Gao Jiuding calmed down and continued to search along the stream.

"Huh? So smelly?" After walking a few hundred meters forward and turning over a small hill, a strong stench was blown by a gust of wind.

"It's the dry season now, and when the sun shines, doesn't it emit a strong stench?" Maverick said as a matter of course.

Gao Jiuding frowned, and then stretched his brows. The small hill here formed a natural dam, and the creek below was formed by the water seeping out of the dam.

Bypassing the dam and continuing to move forward, he turned over a few more mountains, and each mountain formed a dam, intercepting the higher mountains and waters.

Gao Jiuding looked up, and there were steep cliffs on both sides. This is indeed a river valley, but this river valley is too strange!

The cliffs on both sides are soaring into the clouds, and the hills and rocks in the valley intercept the stream water and form a dam!

No iron ore can be found, maybe because of these dams!

Iron ore is very heavy, and even if it is washed down by floods, it will be deposited in these dams.

"It stinks, do we still have to go in?" Yi Hu lost much confidence in Gao Jiuding.

Ignoring Yihu, Gao Jiuding continued to walk up the dam, the more he went up, the more dams appeared!

It was a small hill at the beginning, but after going up for a while, the hill became steeper and thinner. Now, it has become a river embankment lying across the mountain.

Strange geological structures and strange rocks form river embankments, intercepting the mountains and waters that wash down the mountain into reservoirs.

If the embankment here is not a rock structure, but an earth-stone structure, these dams are standard barrier lakes.

"Maybe it's really a barrier lake!" Gao Jiuding had a smile on his face.

Walking to a river embankment, looking at the red rocks like muck, Gao Jiuding knew that this was indeed iron ore, but the grade was very low.
