Chapter 832
At noon, a barren hill in the suburbs of Xibo City.
This is a rolling mountain range made entirely of rock and dark brown soil.It is difficult for any plant to survive in this mountain range. The entire mountain range looks bare, and occasionally there are clusters of dark green coniferous shrubs dotted on this desolate mountain range.
A group of people are setting up the table, candles and some livestock, preparing for worship. Next to the table, there are bundles of detonators and explosives, which are ready for the official opening of the mountain after the worship ceremony is completed.
Han Dong and the excited Mudel stood among the crowd, looking towards the desk.
"My father is leading the miners to prepare for the sacrificial ceremony. When the sacrificial ceremony is over, they will blow up the mountain. When the time comes, the earth will shake and the mountains will shake. It's very scary!" Mudel whispered excitedly.
Han Dong smiled slightly, but did not speak. He looked over the desk and towards the desolate mountain range behind him.
From this mountain range, Han Dong really felt the rich sharp gold atmosphere. It seems that this is really a rich mine, but he is not sure whether it is iron ore.
But since Mudel is so sure, it is obvious that their family has explored in advance, and it has been confirmed that there are rich iron ore in this mountain range.
It didn't take long for the ceremony to be almost ready, and everyone was patiently waiting for the so-called auspicious time. When the time came, the worship ceremony would begin.
Soon, the crowd became agitated as the sun moved over everyone's heads.
"The worship ceremony begins, worship the mountain god!" An old voice sounded, and dozens of miners, each holding a bunch of joss sticks the size of a child's arm in their hands, lit them and bowed toward the desk with a devout expression.
The worship ceremony before the opening of the mountain, for others, is just a fun to watch, but for these miners, it is something that cannot be sloppy and must be taken seriously.
"Grandfather of the mountain god bless you!" All the miners shouted at the top of their voices after paying their respects three times, almost exhausting all their strength, as if they were afraid that their voices would be too low for the grandpa of the mountain god to hear clearly.
Boom, boom, boom~
Several workers on the side twisted the paper cannons in their hands, making a few muffled noises, and the miners inserted the incense candles in their hands one by one into the huge incense burner on the desk.
"Open the mountain!" The old voice sounded again.
"Let's open the mountain!" The miners also began to roar at the top of their throats, the voice was continuous and ups and downs, and some bats "thumped" and flew over the heads of the crowd.
"Hey, it's interesting..." Han Dong seemed to have noticed something, and looked up at the group of bats with a smile on his lips.
Originally thought it was just a simple mountain opening ceremony, digging mines is no stranger to the people of Xibo City. Xibo City is surrounded by the sea on one side and surrounded by mountains on three sides. Mining is a very common thing.
Han Dong originally thought that this time it was just an ordinary mountain digging, but unexpectedly, it alarmed the blood clan.
"It seems that what Mudel said before, that this mountain range was once the residence of the Uriel clan, is not groundless..." Han Dong thought to himself.
Those furry bats with dark red skin are the legendary vampires. Han Dong can feel the energy fluctuations dissipating from the surface of their bodies. Among them, there is a slightly larger one that exudes the energy fluctuations of the transformation star realm.
Seeing these bats fly to a huge rock not far away and remain motionless, Han Dong couldn't help but become a little interested in digging a cave.
"Maybe it's not just blood iron that's harvested this time!" Han Dong thought to himself.
……
rumbling~
After the simple ceremony, several miners carefully stuffed the detonator explosives into the deep pit dug in advance on the rock wall.
There were deafening roars, and a large piece of rock cracked under the roar of the explosion. After a while, a huge hole appeared in front of everyone.
"One, two, three,..." A worker wearing a hard hat listened to the explosion and counted silently in his heart.
"Thirteen, fourteen!" The worker's face showed a look of joy, and he shouted loudly: "Fourteen, all explosives explode, safe!"
Mudel's father is a middle-aged man in his 40s. After hearing the news, there was a smile on his face. The smooth operation of the mine also indicates that the mining has been half successful. The rest is to carry out exploration and confirmation, and then he can Workers were dispatched to excavate.
"Gong Lin, I still need you to confirm." Mudel's father bowed to an old man wearing glasses beside him with a smile on his face.
"Hehe, no problem!" Lin Gong nodded and said, "The previous exploration results have shown that this is the best place to dig a hole. If the prediction is not bad, a batch of good-quality iron can be obtained by opening the mountain this time." ore!"
"If that's the case..."
"Why don't we go and have a look together? Now that the explosion is over, as long as we don't enter the mine, there will be no danger..."
After pondering for a moment, Mudel's father nodded, and walked towards the hole that was dug out with several people.
At this time, a large hole seven or eight meters deep had been blasted out on the rock wall, and many large and small gravels were scattered around, some of which even collapsed tens of meters away.
"How about it, isn't it amazing!" After the explosion, Mudel blushed with excitement, pulling Han Dong to point at the big hole that was blown out, and exclaimed excitedly.
"Hehe, it's really powerful, and there are really rich iron mines here, Mudel, your family is rich." Han Dong nodded and said, he looked at a piece of gravel at the entrance of the cave, and there were many stones in the sunlight. Under the light, there is a dark metallic luster. Obviously, these stones contain rich iron elements, and a large amount of pig iron can be obtained through simple refining.
"Haha, Lin Gong, it's really iron ore, it's really iron ore!" Mudel's father grabbed a piece of gravel the size of a fist, observed it carefully, and laughed loudly.
This stone is heavy, with a black metallic luster at the fracture, it is obviously a piece of high-quality iron ore.
There was also a look of joy on Lin Gong's old face. He finally lived up to the [-] exploration fee given by the other party. To be able to explore a specific mining position at one time, it is not only enough to have rich exploration experience, but also to have Enough luck.
The surrounding people who were invited to watch the ceremony also gathered around Mudel's father, and kept saying congratulatory words. Muder's family has obtained another rich iron mine, and their fortune will definitely rise to a higher level. Everyone around wanted to take the opportunity to curry favor with him.
At this moment, Han Dong was suddenly attracted by a fist-sized dark red ore, and couldn't help walking towards it.
"Blood, blood iron?" Han Dong picked up the ore and took a look, a look of surprise appeared on his face.
