C279 Crystals of Earth and Fire
"Stone picker, what is that? A scientific team?"
Lin Fei was not in a hurry to ask who the man was, and just casually asked.
"No, no, they are not members of the scientific research team, they are just some ordinary stone gatherers, this is a special occupation of Iceland!"
The man replied.
Lin Fei asked, "Profession?"
"Yes, profession. It's the profession of stone gatherer, the type that uses stone mining as a profession!"
The person replied.
"Then what kind of stones are they picking in this volcano?"
Lin Fei became interested and continued to ask.
"Of course they are gemstones. These volcanic lava come from the core of the earth, so when the lava erupts, many rare materials from the core of the earth will be taken out. Once they obtain them, they will basically live their entire lives!"
The middle-aged man explained with a smile.
Lin Fei could understand a little about this because there were indeed many treasures mixed in the volcanic lava. However, this was the first time he had heard of this profession of harvesting rocks in active volcanoes.
However, he was more interested in this matter.
At this moment, Lin Fei suddenly realized that the man had opened a bag in his hand, revealing the exact same equipment as those people in the distance.
"So you are also a gem hunter?"
Lin Fei said excitedly.
"Yes!"
The man said with a smile, then he quickly put on his clothes.
Lin Fei's heart was itching. He liked to do such risky things. Seeing the middle-aged man put on the professional protective suit, his eyes were shining.
"Well, sir, can you sell me a protective suit?"
Lin Fei looked at him and finally couldn't help but say.
He did not want to be rich because he was short of money. He just felt that this matter was very exciting.
"Why? Are you interested in this as well?"
The middle-aged man asked.
"Yes, I am very interested. How much is this protective suit? I will give you ten times the market price. How about it?"
Lin Fei quickly said.
The middle-aged man seemed to be very friendly to Lin Fei, an eastern man. He threw the bag to Lin Fei and said, "I have a spare set here. You can wear it. But you have to promise me that you will follow me when we go in. Don't run around, or your life will be in danger! "
"Alright, no problem!"
Lin Fei took the bag and looked excited. He took out his phone and was about to pay him.
But the middle-aged man refused.
At this moment, Sun Yunxi quickly came over and pulled Lin Fei's hand. "Lin Fei, what are you doing? It's a dangerous place. Hot lava and harmful gases. What are you doing in there?"
However, Lin Fei merely patted Sun Yunxi's head and said with a smile, "Yunxi, it's fine. I just want to experience the life of a stone-gatherer. There won't be any danger!"
"But..."
Sun Yunxi still wanted to say something, but Lin Fei didn't care about her at all. He had already started to change his equipment.
With his current speed and physical fitness, ordinary danger zones wouldn't be able to trap him, so there wouldn't be any danger at all.
When Sun Yunxi saw that Lin Fei was determined to go, she immediately looked at Liu Qing, Xi Mengwei, and Lee Fei'er and said, "Mengwei and Fei'er, Sister Xiao Qing, you guys should advise Lin Fei not to let him go. It is very dangerous inside!"
But at this time, Liu Qing went forward and stopped Sun Yunxi. "Yunxi, sir has always been a person who pursues excitement. So once he decides something, we can't persuade him. Let him go by himself!"
Xi Mengwei and Lee Fei'er also desperately nodded in agreement with Liu Qing's words.
"But that is really too dangerous?"
Sun Yunxi stressed again.
But Liu Qing smiled and looked at Sun Yunxi and said, "Don't worry. sir always does things with propriety. We sisters will just watch!"
Therefore, Sun Yunxi's persuasion was fruitless and could only give up.
Lin Fei quickly changed into protective clothing and followed the middle-aged man to the flat ground inside the volcano.
There was a large area of dark gray in the crater's interior. It was formed from the solidified lava that spewed out of the crater. Typically, these places would not be dangerous.
However, when he stepped on it, he felt a soft feeling. It was as if he was walking in a swamp. It made him feel extremely nervous. But to Lin Fei, this was completely exciting and exciting. The new experience in his heart made him not feel afraid at all.
Due to the continuous spurting of fiery lava from the mouth of the volcano, it formed lava streams of different sizes on the surface of the gray surface of the Mars, day by day, on the surface of the ground that was like the surface of the Mars.
They were like spider webs spread across the land. If one looked at it from a bird's eye view, this place would look like a devil's eye that had been opened all this time.
The middle-aged man was very familiar with the route. One look and one could tell that he was an experienced gem hunter. As he moved forward, he constantly gave Lin Fei various pointers. He told ___ that those places were most likely to find the treasures they wanted, and that they were very talkative.
And it was also through this constant communication that Lin Fei found out his name was Jiaden, an Iceland native with Filipino blood.
It had to be said that the temperature inside the crater was simply too high. Even though he was wearing a thick protective suit, Lin Fei was still covered in sweat from being roasted. He felt as if his entire body was about to be roasted.
In fact, the place where they were mining was not the flowing lava, but the grayish-brown areas that had just solidified. Sometimes, they would also check the vicinity of the lava flow.
Because according to Jason, although the probability of finding good stuff in the lava flow was very low, once it was discovered, it would be an absolute treasure.
Jiedeng told Lin Fei that not long ago, a gem hunter had found a purple diamond in the lava flow in the volcano. It was the size of a soccer ball, and then it jumped and became a super rich man. He had already migrated to Canada.
Because of this, the reputation of this place had increased greatly, which was why it attracted so many gem hunters.
As Lin Fei and Zedeng approached the mouth of the volcano, Lin Fei saw quite a number of stone gatherers.
They had also found a few stones along the way, but they weren't anything good. They were just some low grade obsidian.
"Rumble!"
However, at this moment, at the largest crater in the center of the volcano, a large wave of high-temperature lava suddenly spurted out.
This caused many of the stone gatherers to retreat one after another.
Zedeng also pulled Lin Fei and began to retreat quickly. However, there was still a large piece of lava that instantly smashed in their direction.
This scene had far exceeded Zedeng's expectations. He was stunned on the spot. Even the few beauties who had been watching Lin Fei from afar felt their hearts jump to their throats.
The nearby tourists also cried out in alarm and screamed.
But at this moment, Lin Fei was abnormally calm. He turned around and picked Jiedeng up with one hand and ran. He jumped five to six meters away and narrowly avoided the large splash of lava.
"This..."
After Jaden landed on the ground, he instantly turned around and looked at Lin Fei as if he was looking at a monster. His eyes revealed a look of disbelief.
Only now did he understand that this young man was not simple.
However, at this moment, Lin Fei pushed Jaden, who was in a daze from shock, then pointed at the place where the large piece of lava had fallen and asked, "Jaden, look, what is that thing?"
Only then did Zedeng turn his head to look and discover the large drop of lava that had splashed over. It formed a small lava puddle on the grayish-brown ground, and at this moment, in the middle of the lava puddle. There was actually a fiery-red crystal the size of a baby's fist lying there quietly.
Zedeng's eyes instantly widened as he roared, "Earth fire crystal! Heavens, this is unbelievable! It's actually a piece of Earth fire crystal!"
