The sky is a little gloomy, but on the beautiful alpine pastures, the mountains are still green and cloudy, the peaks are forested, and the clouds and mist are shrouded, and it is a worldly scenery.

Two black donkeys carried the traveler to walk in the high and cold snow peak of Kunlun Mountain-Mushi Mountain. The altitude of Mushi Mountain is 6,638 meters, and the glacier from which it originates produces the world-famous Hetian jade, which can be said to be a real ancient jade mine.

The alpine pastures are located at an altitude of three to four thousand meters, and only in summer and autumn are shepherds, and there are several shepherds' huts scattered among the pastures, which are half-buried in the ground and have bamboo roofs.

Sha Ling rode a black donkey, this donkey has a docile temperament, walks without hurry, and walks very much to Sha Ling's appetite, walking slowly, just so that Sha Ling can enjoy the scenery of the pasture. The old man riding a donkey in front of him is a local Uighur guide, with curly hair and deep eyes, a thin face, a shaggy gray beard, and a fluent Chinese speak.

After walking for ten hours a day, the night was getting deeper, and the mountain road was gradually disappearing and blurring, and the guide's donkey was already exhausted, but looking back, the donkey that Sha Ling was riding was still quite energetic, which surprised him.

It was raining in the air, Sha Ling turned out a raincoat and put it on his body, the old man turned around and made a gesture, indicating that the road he led could only go here, and the rest of the way had to be taken by Sha Ling himself, Sha Ling nodded indifferently, and politely wished him good luck.

He turned over and got off the donkey, the relaxed posture made the old man secretly weird, riding a donkey is not an easy job, the donkey is the back, no pedals, inexperienced people, two legs hanging on both sides of the donkey's body dangling, from time to time to rub on the ground, to get off the donkey, often the leg hips are so sore that they can't stand, the old man has been a guide many times, and has never seen such an easy donkey to ride.

How did he know that Sha Ling had ridden a long-tailed yellow sheep that was more difficult to ride, compared to it, the donkey's back was much more stable.

Sha Ling patted the black donkey that had been carrying him for a day, and whispered in its ear: "Xiao Hei, thank you for your hard work." ”

The black donkey screamed twice, as if to say that it was not tired, of course, and Sha Ling also sat on it, and did not weigh any weight at all.

The guide led the two donkeys away, and as soon as his figure disappeared, Sha Ling stretched out his index finger and dusted off his body, and immediately pulled out all the water from his coat, condensed it into two water balls and threw it away.

Draw a circle in the air, fix a spherical rainwater space, stretch out your hand in this space, draw a sub-heavenly talisman "protection" formed by rain and a small amount of water aura, and flick it casually, this water ball shining with blue spiritual light turned into a thin and transparent water film attached to the surface of Sha Ling's body a few centimeters, and the rain falling from the sky arrived in front of the water film, just like falling into the lake, rippling a circle of thin ripples. Countless raindrops formed countless circles, and when these circles opened, they all emitted a faint light blue light, for a while, Sha Ling seemed to drape a dreamy water world on his body, and from a distance, the stars flashed with soft light, which was really beautiful.

It was dark, and Sha Ling did not hurry, but set up camp like a traveler. Consciously or unconsciously, Sha Ling's pace slowed down, and if he could walk like a normal person or even ride a donkey, he would no longer use the snow step. When he wasn't practicing, he tried to live a more ordinary and low-key life, as if he had completely forgotten what he was different.

In the early morning, the rain stopped outside and the sky was clear, Sha Ling, who had been sitting for a night, pushed open the account door, and what jumped into his eyes was a beautiful scenery - the blue glazed tile-like sky, a few snow-white and soft floating clouds, the white snow-capped peaks towering and towering, the mountains and morning mist surrounded by the mountainside, the green grass at the foot of the mountain had just been washed by the morning rain, and the slowly moving sheep were like white spots on the green brocade......

So pure and fresh...... Sha Ling opened his eyes in a daze, as if he was stupid.

This stop stood for a long time, and in his mind, there was a new change in the "realm" second heavenly talisman.

"Realm" next heaven talisman, can make people in the range of this formation as if they are really in the artistic conception represented by this word, in this array, what he sees, smells, touches, is as if it is real, Sha Ling's pen "realm" word, has several changes, all the scenery that makes his heart gallop, almost all are contained in the few changes of that Liao Liao.

After boiling some hot water, Sha Ling sat cross-legged in front of the tent, drank a sip of licorice tea, nibbled on a few sweet sand cane dates, and ate a simple and comfortable breakfast with the boundless beauty of the snow-capped mountain pasture.

Licorice tea and sand canopy dates, he bought them in Hetian, licorice is an ordinary licorice, of course, the taste can not be compared with Lingqi tea, but the sweetness with a little medicinal taste is also clear.

After eating early, Sha Ling packed up and continued to walk up the snow-capped mountains, the Yulong River flowed under the mountains on the left, the clouds and mist shrouded the snow-capped peaks, the glaciers extended down from the top of the mountains, and there were avalanches and avalanches on the snow-capped mountains from time to time, and the loud rumbling sound echoed in the valley, raising the smoke and snow mist that filled the mountains.

Half a day later, it was already a complete glacial terrain, piled up as high as a hill of pale black moraine rocks undulating, under the stone pile is not a mountain, but a thick ice and snow that has never been melted, in this bitter cold place, Sha Ling met the shack of three jade pickers.

Their shack was cold and simple, Sha Ling swept his mind and saw three jade miners looking for jade washed out by the ice water in the ice crevices above, these three jade miners were about thirty years old, their faces were thin and very bitter. Jade mining is an extremely hard work, at such a high altitude, I don't know how many jade pickers suddenly collapsed because of the cold and lack of oxygen, and those ice crevices that may have jade may collapse at any time, once the ice crevices collapse, the jade miners must be a tragic situation with no bones.

Sha Ling shook his head, there are many jade miners like this, who knows how many jade miners have blood, sweat and tears behind the warm jade?

Shen Nian probed under the iceberg, and after a while, Sha Ling found a jade vein, he circled around the jade vein several times, found a crack in the ice that could be communicated, and carefully looked at it with Shen Nian, confirmed that there were no jade pickers nearby, wrote a protective character and put it in his pocket, Sha Ling squeezed into the narrow ice crevice with a mountaineering bag on his back, if he could, he didn't want to take any big moves, in case it caused an avalanche, he would be fine, implicated other jade pickers, but it would be a sin.

Fortunately, the end of this ice crack can touch the corner of the jade vein, Sha Ling chooses jade, doesn't care about the color or the like, but looks at the aura, this jade vein only has a slightly rich aura in the middle of the thin one, but it is still far from the spirit stone.

A thin glacier river flows in the ice crevices, there are a lot of jade washed by the ice water, Sha Ling picks up or digs down the jade in the ice water where it can land, there is a real yuan in hand, digging jade is quite easy, even picking up and digging, in the blink of an eye, it is more than a dozen pieces to hand, the largest area is enough for the futon, but the best is only four pieces the size of a goose egg in the hand.

The jade was stuffed into the backpack, Sha Ling pierced through the ice crack, this in and out, it was only half an hour, Sha Ling had basically returned with a full load, and then looked at the three jade pickers who were still climbing on the moraine with sharp blades, they probably came for a while, their hair was unkempt, and their faces were a little sluggish, Sha Ling sighed secretly, pretending to pass by inadvertently near their shack, and casually threw three pieces of jade at the door of the shack, these three pieces of jade are pebble-shaped, which is the best texture and the most precious mutton fat seed jade, which is more than gold.

Returning the same way, Sha Ling was thinking about carving something with jade, when suddenly, he heard a strange sound from a distant place.
