GGS-Chapter 682 New Trash Part 2

Previous ChapterNext Chapter


“Oh my God, this seems to be White Jade Marble, and it should be at the First Level.” Su Jing was amazed that his learning was not in vain. He happened to read the materials of White Jade Marble and recognized it as a high-quality White Jade Marble.

White Jade Marble is a very valuable building material. It is flawlessly white, solid and delicate, and very easy to carve, so it has been used as a raw material for many valuable buildings throughout the ages. 

According to legend, China has been using this jade-like material since the Han Dynasty to build Palaces, decorate Temples, carve Buddha statues, and embellish chambers. 

Since this flawless White Jade Marble was used as a building material from the Han Dynasty, it became known as Han Bai Yu or it is simply known as the White Jade Marble.

The White Jade Marble is divided into several grades like First Level, Second Level, Third Level, and Fourth Level, according to its hardness, color, texture, cracks, iron pieces, iron lines, etc. 

Usually, the Marble below Second Level is sold at the Market, and the White Marble of the First Level is harder to buy.

The few pieces in front of Su Jing are definitely above First Level, or it is even possible that these pieces cannot be described by the First Level or Special Level. 

They are simply perfect. And these pieces of White Jade Marble seem to have been used to pave the floor.

“This level of White Jade Marble would be easily sold for more than 10,000 Yuan per Cubic Meter(Price of Normal White Marble in China is 80-200 Dollars per square meter). Although it is far less than Lapis Lazulis, but at least I can see that the world they come from is rich and wealthy and not some backwater and poor world.” Su Jing thought to himself. 

Then, he put a few White Jade Marble bricks aside and continued to search the Garbage for more treasures.

Soon, he turned to the wet garbage. Many things in the garbage are soaked in water or covered with silt and smelled bad. Even when it was picked up, it was already rotten, and it was difficult to distinguish what it was.

“The garbage at the water’s edge is the most disgusting.” Su Jing hurriedly went to put on a mask and continued to search. 

When he picked up a wooden board, the trash underneath suddenly moved. Su Jing thought he had touched it at first, but after a while, the trash underneath moved again.

“Wait, there is a lifeform here?” Su Jing stepped back three meters and released his Spiritual Force to probe into it. 

With such a large pile of garbage, rough detection can only detect those moving lifeforms. If there are Lifeforms hiding in it then they will remain motionless. 

It is normal to miss those stationary lifeforms so Su Jing was extremely careful every time he went through the Garbage in his search process. At the same time, he kept his pets around him all the time for some unforeseen situation.

Su Jing used his Spiritual Force to turn out the garbage that appears to move and then looked inside. He was amazed to see a Turtle-Like Lifeform inside. 

The Lifeform was very large, with a shell as big as a door panel, it was almost round with a flattened carapace and a smooth, shiny, dark olive-green back with many yellow spots on it. 

The back of the neck and limbs were also blackish green with irregular-sized yellow spots on them.

The Turtle was pinned down by the garbage and could not move. Presumably, it must have been inhabiting the water where the garbage was located. 

And it may have even been nesting in the garbage pile, where it usually hides, and when the garbage pile was transported, it was also transported.

Su Jing hurriedly removed the trash and rescued it. Its head and both feet were injured, which was quite serious. Su Jing hurriedly ran his Spring Leaf Secret Art and healed it, and then gave it a few Jade Fang Fishes, and the Turtle quickly regained its vitality.

“I don’t know if this is a turtle, I really don’t recognize it.” Su Jing thought and took out his phone and took very close-up shots of the turtle’s back and head, he then sent them to Ye Bo, an ancient lifeform scientist to take a look.

After a while, Ye Bo answered the phone and said with a smile: “A’Jing, did you go to Suzhou Zoo or Changsha Zoo?”

“Why do you ask?” Su Jing was taken aback.

“Hehe, you took a picture of Yangtze Giant Softshell Turtle. Where else would you have taken it besides these two places?” Ye Bo laughed as he spoke.

“So this is the Yangtze Giant Softshell Turtle?” A thought suddenly dawned upon Su Jing when he heard Ye Bo and Ye Bo also recognized it at a glance which means that this Turtle is quite famous.

“You took the picture and you don’t even know, which one did you take the picture of, I don’t know if it’s because the picture is too close to creating an illusion but I feel as if it has grown a lot, that shouldn’t be the case, right?” Ye Bo said

“Is Yangtze Giant Softshell Turtle only found in these two places?” Su Jing asked.

“Of course, there used to be one in Hoàn Kiếm Lake in Vietnam, but it died some time ago. Now there is only two Yangtze Giant Softshell Turtle known in the world, only one in Suzhou Zoo and one in Changsha Zoo, two in total, which one are you shooting?” Ye Bo said.

“It’s… the one from Suzhou Zoo.” Su Jing stared at this unattractive lifeform in front of him with wide eyes. He was a little surprised. 

It turned out that this lifeform was so rare that there were only two lifeforms in the world. Su Jing had to tell a lie. He could not say that what he shot was not of Suzhou Zoo or Changsha Zoo, but of the one he just dug out from the garbage. 

Fortunately, Ye Bo’s imagination was not rich enough to think of a third Yangtze Giant Softshell Turtle, so he was easily fooled by Su Jing. 

After hanging up the phone, Su Jing looked up the full picture of Yangtze Giant Softshell Turtle on the internet and compared it with the turtle in front of her, and found that this one was the same except it was one round bigger. 

Ye Bo was right: it was indeed a Yangtze Giant Softshell Turtle, and a female one at that.

“There were only two Yangtze Giant Softshell Turtle in the world, and now there is one more. If word of it gets out then I’m afraid it will be a worldwide sensation. Especially if Vietnam learns about it, I wonder if they will die of jealousy?” Su Jing smiled as he thought about it. 

Yangtze Giant Softshell Turtle in Vietnam was not only rare but it also had a special status as it was worshipped as a “Divine Beast” by the people, Vietnam’s Yangtze Giant was named as the Turtle Ancestor! 

When the Softshell Turtle died, it even caused panic among the Vietnamese people for a while as they thought that it was a bad omen. 

If they were to learn that a third Yangtze Giant Softshell Turtle had been found in China, it would certainly be a sensation in their country.
