Chapter 574 573. Rest and Fight (2)
The discovery of the sunset sky made Li Du emotionally excited. In addition, it was night and his perception was a little dull, so he didn't realize the change in energy.
At that time, he used the little flying insect continuously for more than two hours, and kept the little flying insect working at full capacity, terribly consuming energy.
But he was too excited, and the crazy secretion of adrenaline suppressed his body's feeling of negative states, causing his body to be obviously exhausted, but his brain was still awake.
Sophie wasn't trying to scare him. If he didn't find out in time, if this state continued, and when his body collapsed, he might really die of heart failure.
But after some rest, and Sophie supplemented him with glucose and normal saline, his energy has recovered.
Li Du stretched his waist and asked, "How do you know I'm awake?"
Da Ao at the door said: "The proprietress will open the door every five minutes to check on your condition."
"Two minutes." Godzilla snorted.
Sophie glared at the two of them, and said, "How could it be so exaggerated, I only knew that Ah Miao woke up when I heard Ah Miao's cry."
Li Du knew her worry, so he hugged her in his arms and gave her a passionate kiss first.
Sophie blushed and pushed him away, saying, "Go and brush your teeth, your mouth stinks!"
Li Dujiong.
Only after he stepped out of the tent did he realize that it was already afternoon, and he had slept soundly for twelve hours.
But this is already a short sleep time. He was so exhausted before that he needed to rest for a day and a night. This time, it was Sophie who gave him timely glucose supplements to help him regain his strength.
The weather is not hot now, and the wind blows the low bushes on the ground, making the sound of '嗤啦嗤啦', which is crisp and rhythmic, very pleasing to the ear.
Godzilla took out an Italian vegetable soup, which was paired with crispy pasta. One mouthful of pasta and one mouthful of hot and sour vegetable soup were very tasty.
Li Du is really hungry now, devouring the cake and drinking the soup, he said: "Good job, but when will you prepare the cake and vegetables?"
Godzilla said: "I went to buy it, the proprietress made it, and supplemented the daily necessities."
Li Du suddenly nodded, no wonder, he didn't remember that he brought this kind of soft bread.
After eating and drinking, he and Sophie went for a walk.
Sophie asked him to rest first, not to break down his mind and body in search of gems.
As a result, the two strolled around for a while, and a familiar face appeared in front of them—the artist who had sent Sophie's portrait before came.
Seeing the two of them, the painter lifted his spirits, walked over quickly and said, "It's such a coincidence that we met again."
Li Du said: "It's really a coincidence."
The painter asked: "Are you still here to travel? It doesn't look like it. I think you are more like ore pickers."
"Actually, we are here to find Opal this time." Sophie replied.
The painter shook his head and said: "This is unreliable, really, I know the rarity of opal here, this is a gamble that is difficult to win, it is better to spend time on other things."
Sophie smiled and said: "Maybe so, but this is our hobby, maybe we are lucky enough to find a gem?"
The painter looked at the two of them, and asked tentatively: "Are you short of money? If you are short of money, then I can invite you to be my models. Don't get me wrong, I have no other intentions. I just want to see if I can help you. to you."
Li Du said: "The two of us are not short of money, but there is one guy who is quite short of money."
As he spoke, he waved his hands to Godzilla and Ou who were working in the distance, signaling them to come over.
Then he said: "The two of them are short of money, and they are suitable for modeling. I bet there is no one more suitable than them."
Two burly men galloped forward. They wore boots, camouflage trousers and black vests. With their size, muscle lines and appearance, they looked extraordinarily violent.
"Boss, what's the matter?" Da'ao asked fiercely.
In fact, his tone is very gentle, but his expression always looks fierce.
Li Du said: "Here is a Mr. Artist, who wants to help you get some extra money... Hey, sir, don't go, why are you leaving?"
Seeing Godzilla and Ou, the painter's expression changed, and he left without hesitation.
Sophie shrugged and said, "Obviously, he was just being polite, Li, you are too honest, you take other people's polite words seriously, hehe."
As she spoke, she couldn't help laughing.
Strolling around, they saw ore pickers coming from the gravel field next to them. Li Du greeted them friendly, but these people looked at him with hostility.
The ore picker has much less competition than the warehouse auction business. Everyone has a piece of land, and they can find their own stones.
But the relationship between them is very bad, because there is no clear boundary between the gravel fields, there will always be people crossing the boundary to grab stones, resulting in many conflicts.
Li Du didn't want to provoke them, and he didn't want to have anything to do with them, so seeing that he wasn't welcome, he took Sophie away.
With the Crispy Noodles as the lead, he first found the five opals he found last night.
Dao and Godzilla are very envious of the ability of the crispy noodles. Occasionally, the two get together to discuss raising a raccoon, but they are not sure what kind of raccoon has such magical abilities.
Sophie still couldn't find an opal. Li Du wanted to lend her the crispy noodles, but she refused, saying, "I'll find an opal for dad by myself, that's my gift."
Li Du shrugged, well, stubborn girl, I can only help her in another way.
The number of opals within one hectare is not small, but many of them are buried too deep to be dug out without machines. Li Du can only dig out those within one meter.
After two days and two nights like this, they also gained a lot. In addition to Sunset Sky, Li Du also found and dug out thirty-five gems.
Gems vary in size, but the largest are not half the size of the Sunset Dome.
After picking up the thirty-five gems, Li Du got into the car and took the three of them to find a place to rest. They were exhausted for the past two days.
Winslow was 40 kilometers away from the park, which was a bit far away. Fortunately, there was a small hotel near the park, so he booked three rooms and rushed there together.
The layout of the hotel is simple and elegant. Li Du showed Sophie a look at the environment. The room was very clean and hot water was provided 24 hours a day, so he booked it for one day.
Entering the room, the four of them fell asleep without saying a word.
After waking up, it was still dark. Li Du looked at the time in a daze. It was three o'clock in the morning. It seemed that his biological clock was a little messed up by this work.
This is why ore pickers are harder than treasure pickers at storage auctions. Their biological clocks are very chaotic, and they are prone to physical problems after a long time.
