Chapter 170 Chapter 169
On the fast-speeding polar off-road vehicle, Chen Jue looked at the white world outside the car window. The cold wind blowing through the ice and snow could clearly see the wind traces formed by snowflakes, and he could hear the whimpering wind in his ears. Although it was still morning, the temperature nearby It has dropped to minus 18°C.

As for Linglong, she chatted with Zhao Zhen in the carriage without saying a word.

"Miss Linglong, do you really dislike my type?"

"I have no special features, but the only advantage is that I am sincere to people and never tell lies. If you agree to associate with me, I promise to hand in all my salary and income in the future, and I will not lie to you."

"I believe that love at first sight exists in this world! I found that I have fallen in love with Miss Linglong!" Zhao Zhen was steering the steering wheel, his face flushed, and his eyes glanced at Linglong in the carriage from time to time.

The daring courtship of this mixed-race foreigner made Chen Zhizhi, who was like a light bulb, complain for a while.

"Never tell lies?" Linglong frowned.

"Yes! My Chinese name was given to me by my grandfather. The reason why the name is 'Zhen' is because sincerity can touch most people and things in the world."

"As the so-called sincerity goes, gold and stone are the same. I hope to impress you, Miss Linglong, with my sincerity." Zhao Zhen said with a blushing face.

"Since you won't lie, can you tell me if the father-son relationship between you and Papa Tom is true? Although you two look a bit alike, I can't see the deep love between you. " Linglong blinked and asked bluntly at the other party.

"So Miss Linglong, this is what you care about!"

"Papa Tom and I are indeed in a biological father-son relationship, but I was not conceived naturally, but a test-tube baby through artificial insemination."

"This may be the reason, so I was not close to Papa Tom after I was born. In addition, he has been exploring the polar regions all the year round. I basically didn't have his shadow in my childhood, so..." Zhao Zhen showed some sincerity The color, slowly explained.

"test tube baby?"

"So that's the case! It seems that you also had a very unpleasant growing experience." Linglong nodded thoughtfully.

"Miss Linglong, listen to what you mean, is your upbringing experience as rough as mine? That's such a coincidence! This is the fate bestowed on us by God! Let me just say, why the first time I saw you, I fell in love with you. Falling in love with you, it turns out that we can form a spiritual resonance between you and me." Zhao Zhen became a little excited as he said.

It is estimated that I have practiced a lot of yoga Mahamudra, and like the Buddhists, I also pay attention to everything that arises according to conditions and chances.

When Chen Jue heard this, he looked at Zhao Zhen rather strangely, and thought: "In terms of ups and downs, I guess you, a yoga master, are still not as good as Linglong who walked out of the mountain of corpses and the sea of ​​blood."

Linglong smiled noncommittally, and did not answer the topic of love and romance. Instead, she asked about exploration related matters and how to find the meteorite fragments. Chen Jue also pricked up his ears to listen.

"Miss Linglong, Mr. Chen Jue, I think you should also know that the energy radiation emitted by the meteorite fragments is not in any radiation frequency known to mankind. So far, there is no detection instrument that can capture its signal."

"The reason why our Extreme Sports Association can find it is also thanks to the set of experience summed up by my grandfather and father."

"Every team that goes out to investigate must have at least one yoga master who has practiced Mahamudra and realized Bodhi, that is, a master of the realm of Daoist Lei Yin as you call it in the classics of the Huahua family."

"It's just that those of us who practice Mahamudra yoga focus on the mind, and there is no way to be as powerful as your martial arts."

"After comprehending Bodhi, you can use the sixth sense of body awakening to capture the energy radiation emitted by meteorite fragments." Zhao Zhen revealed.

When Chen Jue heard the words, he and Linglong exchanged a glance, their eyes were full of surprise.

"Is there a guru in each group?" Linglong asked.

"Yes, I am also a yoga master who has realized Bodhi. My physical strength and endurance are stronger than ordinary people, so I can barely go on an in-depth adventure in this place in Antarctica." Zhao Zhen turned his head and smiled, took off the glove on his right hand, raised his hand in the He made a heart gesture in his palm, and his palm quickly filled with blood like a balloon.

The sound of rushing energy and blood fell on Chen Jue and Linglong's ears extremely calmly, and the beating that came out of his handprint a few times was like the heartbeat when the dark energy burst out.

"Yoga Mahamudra?"

"It is rumored that this kung fu has been practiced to the depths, and it can have the power of the Buddha to throw images. I don't know if it is true or not." Linglong said with a deep look at Zhao Zhen.

"Miss Linglong, throwing elephants is an exaggerated description in Buddhist scriptures. The lightest newborn baby elephant weighs more than 100 kilograms, let alone throwing an adult elephant weighing several tons into the air for three days! It’s an exaggerated legend! Just like the legendary Buddha’s touch-to-ground mudra, all demons will fall, and the touch-to-ground mudra in Mahamudra is just a kung fu similar to one-finger Zen, relying on one finger to support the body in the air, many specialized A monk who practices One Finger Zen can do it, practice makes perfect." Zhao Zhen explained.

As for Chen Jue, after hearing this allusion, he smiled unnaturally.

He didn't know whether the Buddha had ever thrown an elephant, but Chen Jue had indeed thrown two adult elephants.

……

The polar off-road vehicle drove farther and farther. After driving for two hours, it stopped at the edge of a glacier fault. The three of them put on masks and got out of the car. ice top.

"Mr. Chen Jue, Ms. Linglong, this is the first time you have set foot in Antarctica. With your skills, it is reasonable to say that there will be no accidents."

"But just to be on the safe side, I'd like to take you through a drill of the polar expedition today." Zhao Zhen took the tools out of the car as he spoke.

One end of the long climbing rope was tied to the car, and the other end was thrown down the ice valley. Then he took out a special outdoor climbing pick, and Zhao Zhen began to slide down the rope little by little, with extremely smooth movements.

After climbing to the bottom, Zhao Zhen waved at the two, signaling them to come down.

After that, Chen Jue and Linglong followed his operation and imitated it. Both of them are masters of alchemy, and they learned this rock climbing movement very quickly.

After climbing up and down three times, Zhao Zhen took the two of them to explore the deep area.

On the way, they passed a simple supply station with Hongmou's logo printed on it. The three got out of the car and went in to have a rest. They ate some food to replenish their energy.

Looking at the frozen cabinets and floors in the supply station, Chen Jue couldn't help but lament the harsh environment in Antarctica.

"Mr. Chen Jue, do you know what is the scariest thing about Antarctica?" Seeing Chen Jue's pensive look, Zhao Zhen, who was heating water on the stove, suddenly asked.

"Is it low temperature?" Chen Jue asked.

"No! It's time!"

"Whether it's in Antarctica or outside, the scariest thing is time."

"Time is the fairest for everyone, but it is the cruelest for everyone. Once something happens during the Antarctic expedition, if the rescue is not timely, it will be buried forever in this ice and snow world."

"Before you came, two teams from the Extreme Sports Association lost contact during the expedition. When we found the distress signal they sent, they were all frozen to death in such a crude supply station."

"If there is a snowstorm, no one can withstand the long time here. No matter which supply station you set off from to the scientific research station, it will take hours or even days in the middle. Once the fuel in the supply station is exhausted The only thing we can do is to wait for death. Therefore, we explorers, unless we have to, most of them will not use up all the supplies in a supply station. This may leave a way for the next batch of explorers who arrive here. "Zhao Zhen stared calmly at the hot water in the pot, and introduced it expressionlessly.

After listening to it, Chen Jue and Linglong were thoughtful.

……

After that, the three of them simulated and trained the expedition process in the nearby polar environment, and then drove all the way back to the scientific research station.

On the first day of the expedition drill, they only walked out of the range of [-] kilometers, which is still a safe distance for this group of people who came to the Antarctic for adventure.

After Chen Jue returned to the scientific research station, he spent most of his time resting and practicing.

In the next few days, every time I went out, I walked farther and farther, and the terrain I set foot on also ranged from glacier faults, to frozen valleys, and undercurrents under the ice.

The temperature also dropped from minus 12 degrees Celsius when we first arrived to minus 52 degrees Celsius.

At this time, if the skin is exposed to the air without protection, a layer of skin will be frozen off within a few minutes.

It's just that Chen Jue was surprised that he didn't meet the other three expedition teams when he went to and from the Hongmou scientific research station for several days, as if they were staggered in time.

I can know the existence of these three groups of nine people, but I have never met them face to face in the scientific research station.

When the week passed, John, who stayed in the station for several days, also left by private plane.

As for Chen Jue's Wudang Golden Toad Kungfu, he has perfected it to level 3 in the past few days of water-grinding kung fu, and has newly awakened a bonus state of [Golden Toad Swallowing Breath].

It is probably because this kung fu was enhanced by [Lu Zu Enlightenment], plus Chen Jue had already trained his strength into his internal organs, and was affected by the thin air environment in Antarctica, which made his improvement very fast.

[Golden Toad Swallows Qi]: The toad in the well wants to swallow the sky, but the stomach and intestines are strong with an iron lung and a steel heart.

State description: Affected by this state, it can greatly enhance the breathing capacity of the lungs, the blood supply capacity of the heart, and accelerate the peristaltic digestion of the stomach.

In addition, the Hidden Dragon Sleeping Alchemy was also promoted to Lv3 by Chen Jue, but the level of this method of Sleeping Alchemy is higher than that of the Golden Toad Art, and level 3 is not yet complete.

The improvement of the two exercises brought Chen Jue a 0.12 improvement in physical fitness and a 0.05 improvement in strength sensitivity, and his health index also climbed to 212%.

……

The day after sending John away, Chen Jue was told that starting today, he would start advancing to some untouched forbidden areas in central Antarctica.

On the back of the polar off-road vehicle that Zhao Zhen was driving, a simple supply box with a sled also began to be dragged.

The three of them set off at 6:9 in the morning, galloped all the way, refueled several times on the way, and arrived at a simple supply point more than 1000 kilometers away from the scientific research station at [-]:[-] in the evening.

"There is no supply point any further. We want to rest later, unless we stay in the car or come back here." Zhao Zhen's face became serious.

In this 1390 million square kilometers of ice and snow world, it is very difficult to establish such a closed supply station. It is the limit of what humans can do to penetrate more than 1000 kilometers.

Even the Hongmou Group, with its wealth and wealth, cannot push further into the depths of Antarctica. One can imagine the cost of building a supply point in such a place.

The three of them had nothing to say at the supply point all night. After many days of exploration and study, Chen Jue also knew that it was best to keep his mouth shut in such an arctic environment, so as to keep the heat and water in his body from being easily lost.

But in the middle of the night, when the temperature outside the supply point began to drop to minus 60°C, the whimpering wind began to sound like a demon with teeth and claws, blowing to the ground and making crackling noises on the outer walls of the supply point. It was the sound of ice and snow colliding. Only then did Chen Jue see the power of Antarctica.

"Human beings will freeze into popsicles in a short time if there is no shelter in front of such a harsh environment." Chen Jue thought in his heart.

……

Hiding in sleeping bags and resting overnight, the three of them drove the off-road vehicle to the depths again the next day.

This exploration lasted for a full seven days. During this period, we frequently went back and forth to the last supply point for repairs, and the map data brought out from the scientific research station were also constantly marked with crosses during these seven days, eliminating one after another. terrain.

In order to find those meteorites, the Hongmou Group spent a lot of money to take a whole set of high-magnification photos of the Antarctic continent from the satellite.

Coupled with decades of exploration, some places that are easy to reach have long been figured out.Chen Jue and Linglong were left with the worst and most remote routes.

On this day, when the vehicle came to an endless ice layer, Chen Jue suddenly sensed a faint wave of innate energy coming from below.

As for Linglong and Zhao Zhen, it is estimated that their cultivation bases are not as deep as Chen Jue's, so they didn't react at all when they passed by this place.

"Zhao Zhen, just stop here!"

"I sensed something below." Chen Jue reminded.

After half a month of getting along, Chen Jue has roughly figured out the character and temper of the group leader, and has established a good friendship with him.

"Mr. Chen Jue, your perception ability is so strong?" Zhao Zhen stepped on the brake hastily and looked back at Chen Jue in surprise.

During this period of getting along, Chen Jue was always indifferent, and Linglong played with Zhao Zhen throughout the whole process, and even Zhao Zhen almost ignored Chen Jue's role.

Unexpectedly, in a turn of events, Chen Jue would be the first to sense the energy radiation of the meteorite!
"It should be not far from us, just under our feet." Chen Jue laughed, but didn't admit it, even Linglong looked at Chen Jue in surprise.

Then the three got out of the car, took out tools and drilled a hole in the thick ice under their feet, and put down a leash camera with night vision function.

These are industrial-grade wide-temperature equipment, and ordinary electronic equipment cannot even be turned on in such a low-temperature environment.

Zhao Zhen exclaimed while observing the picture captured by the camera: "I found it! There is a natural crater below!"

Chen made up his mind to say, "Kung fu pays off", he and Linglong exchanged glances, and then cooperated with Zhao Zhen to dig through the ice layer little by little, digging a hole for several people to pass through.

Equipped with ropes, the three descended into the crater below one after another.

The crater is more than [-] meters deep, and is blocked by a layer of sharp ice above it. It is impossible to see such a magical inner space below by taking satellite photos.

And at the bottom of the pit, a huge stone about half a person tall with a dark surface appeared in front of the three of them.

Seeing this, Zhao Zhen was the first to take out a climbing pick and knocked off a piece of debris outside the stone, exposing a large dark golden pattern inside the stone.

The innate qi emanating from the stone was so intense that Chen Jue, Linglong, including Zhao Zhen, all showed a hint of intoxication.

It's as if the pores of the whole body are open, and the cells all over the body are jumping for joy!
"How many carats does this have to be?"

"At least it weighs half a ton!" Chen Jue visually measured the size of the meteorite, and couldn't help but marvel in his heart.

I didn't expect that I would find such a huge meteorite just by sensing it casually. If John said 500 million green coins per carat, this meteorite alone would be enough to buy a country!

"Such a big impact crater! There must be scattered debris nearby!" Zhao Zhen yelled, his eyes were full of fanaticism, and the three of them searched around the crater again, and they really found several palm-sized pieces. Meteorite fragments.

It's a pity that the innate energy content of these fragments is obviously not as good as the one at the bottom of the pit.

It is estimated that this huge meteorite of more than half a ton is the core part of an asteroid, which contains a very high concentration of congenital Qi.

It's just that I found this meteorite, but it's a problem to take it up. After all, the bottom of the pit is more than a hundred meters away from the ice above.

If the meteorite is smashed little by little, it is estimated that the innate qi inside will overflow very quickly.

Chen Jue also didn't want to expose his strength too much, and wanted to use his ability to carry the meteorite with one hand.

"I'm going to notify the scientific research station! Try using the winch of the polar car to see if you can drag it up!" Zhao Zhen seemed a little excited, and hurriedly climbed onto the rope and began to climb up.

And Linglong gave Chen Jue a warning look, signaling Chen Jue to stay here. She probably was worried about Zhao Zhen, and followed the rope to climb up.

Seeing that the two started to climb up at the same time, Chen Jue showed a strange look on his face. After thinking about it, he walked to the edge of the big meteorite, took off his gloves, and put his hand on the mountain climber when no one was around. The meteorite breach opened by a pickaxe.

The reason why the innate qi in this type of meteorite can maintain tens of millions without spilling is also because a thick weathered shell was formed after the fall.

But when Zhao Zhen chiseled it open, the innate qi inside the meteorite began to slowly spread out.

"It's a waste anyway, it might as well be absorbed by me."

Thinking of this, Chen Jue took out a few energy bars from his pocket, stuffed them into his mouth, chewed and swallowed quickly, while he himself held the dark gold pattern exposed by the meteorite breach, mobilizing the free attribute points, and started to use 0.01 attributes in exchange for 10 proficiency of the minimum way to add points, for [big and small weekly operation Lv1 (5/200)] to come for a while.

"Buzz!"

Chen Jue only felt that as soon as he added a little bit, the blood in his body began to circulate rapidly. Through [Inner Vision], he found that the cells in his body began to rapidly transform and evolve under the support of the innate energy.

Adding the siphon effect induced by this door-to-door technique, the innate energy transported by the meteorite completely calmed down.

As soon as the 10 proficiency was raised, Chen Jue found that various attributes had increased sharply. As for the dark gold pattern in the meteorite's breach, it quickly dimmed at this moment.

"Continue!" Chen Jue looked up at Linglong and Zhao Zhen, who had disappeared without a trace. With five fingers, the bonus effect of the Golden Needle Finger Skill [Piercing Stone Like Rot] exploded, and the fingers plunged into the meteorite like a drill. Then 10 The method of adding points to proficiency promotes the rapid improvement of [big and small weekly running].

After Zhao Zhen and Linglong shouted from the upper hole, and dropped a winch wire rope and a canvas bag for carrying meteorites, Chen Jue withdrew his finger, and pinched the place where the finger was inserted. broken pieces.

After taking a look at how big and small Zhou Tian was running this skill, he was stuck at [Lv1 (195/200)] Chen Jue thought to himself, "It's a pity", this skill can break through another level with just one drop.

But at this moment Zhao Zhen and Linglong came down the rope again, in front of two outsiders, Chen Jue couldn't make further breakthroughs, so he had to cooperate with the two to wrap up the meteorite.

But when Linglong and Zhao Zhen saw that a corner of the meteorite seemed to be missing, and the golden lines inside had dimmed a lot, they both looked at Chen Jue with some doubts in their eyes.

Chen Jue didn't show anything. He smiled and cooperated with the two to lift the meteorite onto the canvas bag. After the three of them climbed out of the ice along the rope, Zhao Zhen began to control the winch device on the polar car, and began to lift the meteorite a little by little. More than 500 kilograms of meteorites were dragged up and out of the ice.

The entire process of lifting and dragging took nearly half an hour. Fortunately, the whole process was safe and sound. Relying on modern equipment, the meteorite was successfully removed from the crater below.

As long as he got to the ice and waited for the support from the scientific research station to arrive, Chen Jue's trip would be considered a complete success.

And according to the exploration agreement signed with the Hongmou Group, no matter how many meteorites they find, Chen Jue and Linglong are entitled to share half of them.

……

Wrapping the meteorite and placing it on the ice, the three of them got on the polar off-road vehicle, and Zhao Zhen had sent a request for support to the scientific research station through the on-board satellite communication equipment when he first went on the ice.

If it wasn't for the off-road vehicle's lack of fuel, all three of them wanted to throw away the supplies dragged behind and directly lift the meteorite into the vehicle and transport it away.

There is a distance of more than 2000 kilometers from the scientific research station here, and the support will not arrive so soon, so the three of them chatted while waiting on the off-road vehicle.

Every half an hour, a loud reminder would sound from the car's stereo, indicating that the support from the scientific research station was getting closer.

After waiting for three hours, there was a sound like the roar of an airplane engine in the sky. The three of them got out of the car when they heard the sound. When they looked up, they saw a small ship with the Hongmou logo printed on it in the blue sky. The plane whizzed by, and 9 fuzzy black spots jumped down from the side of the plane.

Chen Jue narrowed his eyes and recognized those figures from a distance. They should have used the extreme sport of wingsuit flying to make a sudden landing, while the plane was circling in the distance, presumably planning to make a forced landing on the nearby ice.

Zhao Zhen cheered and waved towards the sky, while he himself slowly moved to the position where the meteorite was placed.

Chen Jue and Linglong noticed his slight move, and leaned towards him as well, but before they got halfway there, they heard a few crackling sounds from above their heads.

A great heart palpitation suddenly came to my heart, and the hairs of both of them sprung up, and they each used their body skills to fly out to the back.

In the next second, nine loud bangs of "Boom, boom, boom!" were heard, and nine metal objects that looked like gray iron spears were inserted straight down from above, strafing the people in front of them like bullets. A row of linear holes pierced through the ice.

Then there was a loud noise of ice cracking on the ice layer, and the force caused by the cascading cracks of the rows of holes actually opened a gap in the entire ice shelf. The crack became bigger and bigger, spreading like At this moment, a natural barrier was formed, separating Chen Jue, Linglong, and the polar off-road vehicle from Zhao Zhen and the meteorite.

And the winch steel wire that was dragging the meteorite was pierced and broken by the falling iron spear just now.

As for the nine figures flying from the plane with wingsuits, they had already opened their parachutes and floated slowly to Zhao Zhen's side.

Chen Jue recovered from the shock just now, and from a distance of tens of meters, he saw clearly that one of the figures lifted off the cold mask on his face, revealing a face very similar to that of Papa Tom.

 This chapter has been written all afternoon. If I take it apart and write it, it feels too watery, so I put it together and post it together.

There should be another big chapter of about [-] words tonight~
