Chapter 667: Downstream, looking for an outlet to the sea
The next day, as Jing Chunxi continued her journey downstream, she felt incredibly energetic and didn't feel tired at all, stopping only once for lunch. Her steps were brisk, as if she were filled with endless energy. Each step was steady and powerful, with no sign of fatigue at all.
The weather was also good, with a few thick clouds floating in the sky. They were like nature's parasols, blocking the scorching sun completely, leaving only soft light shining on the earth.
A gentle breeze rustled through the trees, bringing coolness and a pleasant melody to the beautiful weather. The stream flowed through the mountains, making a clear and pleasant sound, like the sound of nature, which made people feel relaxed and happy.
The surrounding scenery seemed particularly pleasant in such weather, which made Jing Chunxi and Xu Zize feel particularly comfortable. They immersed themselves in this beautiful atmosphere and enjoyed the gifts of nature.
It was not yet 3:00 p.m., and although we had not reached the end of the stream, there were no more signs of deforestation on either side, nor was there any open space for storing ore.
Counting along the way, there are a total of eleven gold panning spots and camping sites, which means this is the final destination.
"What if all the ore isn't unloaded?" Jing Chunxi was a little anxious, frowning worriedly, a hint of worry in her eyes. She had always been worried about not being able to unload all the ore.
"Let's see how many are left." Before Xu Zize finished his words, Jing Chunxi gently pulled him. Jing Chunxi moved very quickly. She gently pulled Xu Zize, and the two of them entered the space.
"Almost there!"
The mine, once so tall it had obscured the blue sky and white clouds, had vanished. The small forest, once so far away, now became visible, and the once crowded space suddenly felt much wider and brighter.
The original green grass and plants on the land have almost dried up, and the undead have been flattened into the ground. The only surprising thing is that there is not a single mineral left in the land. Everything has been cleaned up, and only traces of being crushed can be seen. It is really incredible.
"Xi'er, are you thinking about growing food again?" Xu Zize noticed the joy on Jing Chunxi's face and knew that she was thinking about stockpiling food again. Now that the ore had been almost cleared, she must be thinking about growing food again.
Jing Chunxi nodded, but he looked at the large mine at the foot of the hill in the distance with a worried look on his face. "I originally thought that if there wasn't much left, I could find a way to squeeze in some of it and unload it all."
Looking at that huge mountain, it is impossible to let it out completely.
"It doesn't seem to affect Xier's planting if it's piled there." Xu Zize looked at the location of the mine, which was the farthest place in the space.
He still vaguely remembered following Thunder and Lightning for a stroll. It was a small hill covered with sand and gravel, not much soil, and not much grass.
The land is barren and has little vegetation, making it completely unsuitable for growing crops.
Jing Chunxi knew the situation in her own space, but she did not think the same as Xu Zize.
She murmured, "I wonder how long it will take to mine all this ore." Her concern now was the speed of the panning: would the ore being unloaded be gone soon? If so, wouldn't she have to come to Shibaao again after the Lunar New Year?
She felt a little worried and didn't know how to solve this problem.
"What do you think?" Xu Zize smiled lightly. Thinking that Jing Chunxi would come again in the future because he would have to unload ore, he felt happy in his heart and couldn't help but smile.
But he didn't want to spoil Jing Chunxi's fun, so he comforted her by saying, "This is the entire mountain range of Damuding. Even if there are a lot of us, it will take us three or two years to finish exploring."
"That's fine!" Jing Chunxi breathed a sigh of relief. Although she missed her family here and wanted to see them more often, running around outside all year round was tiring, and she needed to take a break and do something else.
As long as the matter is not urgent, it is okay to come back next year or the year after.
Besides, she often goes out, which makes her mother and brother at home very worried. It is really not a good thing to make them worry about her all the time.
Thinking of this, she thought of the two letters from her grandfather in her space, as well as the letters from her grandfather, grandmother, and two uncles to her mother and brother respectively. She sighed, feeling that the burden on her shoulders was quite heavy.
At such a young age, she has to worry about her mother and master's marriage, prepare a dowry, and consider her younger brother's feelings. What kind of thing is this?
After finishing their work, they did not go back, but went down the stream, trying to find an outlet to the sea.
I remember Uncle Sijiu said that they had carefully considered the selection of the site. In addition to a large hidden forest, there is also a mountain stream with abundant water all year round, which makes it both safe and convenient for gold panning.
The most important thing is that the end of the water source is the estuary.
"There must be a fishing village or a small town near the estuary. We'll find a way back after we get there." Xu Zize said confidently, "The estuary must be not far away."
Jing Chunxi agreed with this statement. She felt that Xu Zize's judgment was very reasonable. There must be a fishing village or a small town near the seaport, where they could definitely find a way back.
After walking along the stream for about ten miles, I suddenly smelled the salty smell of the sea breeze. At this time, the surrounding trees had gradually thinned out, the stream became calm, and in its place was a wide open view.
As the last clump of trees fell behind, the view opened up. A boundless expanse of blue stretched before my eyes, a thin line separating the sea and sky. Waves gently lapped against the rocks, creating a rhythmic rustle. A few seagulls circled overhead, chirping.
Jing Chunxi stood on the shore, letting the sea breeze blow her hair, feeling the unprecedented openness and freedom.
She knew that the way home was near.
The sunlight shone on the sea, making the waves sparkle with a beauty that was breathtaking. They quickened their pace and walked towards the beach where the boat was.
First, we saw a Mazu Temple. Although the temple is not big, it is very popular. As dusk approached, the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the roof of the temple, adding a bit of mystery to this ancient building.
Although it was late, there were still people in the temple burning incense and kneeling, praying for the safety of their families.
