Chapter 1458 Meeting Again (1/2)

Lu Guan started to zoom in, increasing the scale of the big map. Young Markelov came over for a look and pointed at the sculpture. He said, ”Hey, brother, look at this. It looks familiar.”

The older Markelov came over for a look. He said with hesitation, ”Is this the Dena Mountain? These towns don't look very clear. Look at the two towns under the mountain. Wasn't there only one? That's Wooku town, right?”

Young Markelov said, ”That's why I said it looks familiar. If I could be sure, why would I ask you to look?”

Older Markelov aimed a kick at him and said, ”Who's the elder brother? Is this the attitude the younger brother should take when talking to the elder?”

Young Markelov immediately gave in and said, ”Alright, you're the elder brother.”

Hearing the exchange between the two of them, Li Du came to a realization. What he had thought were cities on the map were, in fact, small towns.

He had gotten used to the small-scaled maps that he had been reading. He saw that there were mountains and buildings carved on the jade, and the area of the buildings looked larger than the area of the mountains. Hence, he had concluded that those were cities. It turned out that he was wrong.

With the two landmarks of the Dena Mountain and Wooku Town, everything became much simpler.

Lu Guan continued to identify the location on the computer while Brother Wolf tried to find the location on the map. Everything was slowly becoming more certain.

Dena was a small mountain. There were many mountains in Myanmar. That particular one was not very well known. The introduction Google gave was only, 'Located in the northern part of Kachin State, north of the Wooku River Basin, near Wooku Town.'

Li Du noticed the term, 'Wooku River'. The river was not exactly well known either. However, its basin had worldwide fame as a source of jade.

Lu Guan said as he looked at the map on his computer, ”Hey, boss, how old is this carving? It doesn't look the same as now. Look at the mountain on the map. It looks barren.”

Indeed, in the 3D map on the computer screen, there were no trees on the mountain. There were some greyish-white areas, and the yellowish-brown rocks were exposed. However, the mountain on the sculpture was engraved with many trees, big and small.

Li Du let out the little bug and use Time Travelling. The first scene that appeared was that of two elderly people in their fifties or sixties. They were carving a piece of pure jade carefully.

According to his experience, he made some deductions. The sculpture, he concluded, was more than two hundred years old!Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

He got anxious. There was a huge gap in time. The mine on the map could long have been discovered. If that were true, it could have been depleted a long time ago.

Hence, he said, ”Search around here. See if there are any mentions of a jade mine in the area.”

Lu Guan started to type furiously on the keyboard. Shaking his head, he said, ”There is no mention relating to this place online.”

”Of course not,” Young Markelov said loudly. ”Dena Mountain and Wooku Town are remote places. Who would notice them?”

Li Du asked, ”How come do you know so much about it?”

Young Markelov kept quiet and his older brother lost his smile and said to him, ”Why should we keep it a secret? There's no need for that anymore. In the past, we went there to carry out some missions. We helped the guerilla attack the government military. We had a crossfire there and we killed some men.”

Li Du said, ”Then what information do you guys have about this place?”

The older Markelov said, ”Hmm, I recall that there were not so many towns. To the North of Dena Mountain, there was Wooku Town. The mountainous southern region was quite developed, and Pagan Town was south of it.
