Part 1: Ancient Crescent Jade, A Strange Story of the Yellow River 1
[69 Book Bar - www.] Early the next morning, we packed our luggage and followed the fat white man and the thin black man to the edge of the Yellow River. The autumn wind felt a bit cold on our faces, and there was a hazy white mist floating on the river.
A vast expanse.
Green Dogzi also shouted to follow him to have a look, and Fatty Bai said, "Don't blame me if you encounter a water monster and lose your life."
Qing Gouzi said: "It's not strange, it's not strange. I'm afraid it's a pity that I didn't see the water monster."
The thin black man glared at the green dog, "If we encounter a water monster, I will throw you down first."
Seven of us boarded the iron boat. This iron boat is different from other boats. Although the hull is made of wood, it is wrapped with a layer of iron, just like wearing a suit of armor. The hull is very

For hundreds of years, those Buddha statues have stood on the banks of the surging Yellow River, watching the changes in the sea and the rotation of the sun and the moon. Many of the Buddha statues have been eroded by wind and frost, but we can still feel the magnificent and solemn momentum.
The tin boat made a churning noise, like a tractor. The river wind blew in our faces, and we all felt a little cold, so we got into the cabin. The cabin was very boring, so Qing Gouzi told us about this place on the edge of the Yellow River.

The sound was extremely miserable, and then all the people at the bottom of the river began to roar. The people cooking on the bank were very surprised. After a while, everyone stopped and continued working. When they were eating, I asked them, but no one
Knowing that I have made such a sound, that is to say, in those few minutes of memory, there are no people at the bottom of the river. Do you think it is strange?"
