After eating supper, Li Du slept

He had originally wanted to sleep only for three to four hours before waking up to continue the search, and had set his alarm to wake hiht He looked at his watch It was 8:30 ao off?”

Seeing that he was up, Sophie chuckled ”It was turned off by so soundly, so wanted to let hih sleep and so was feeling recharged

”I'm fine You shouldn't have worried,” he said as he went over to give Sophie a kiss

”Reht?” Sophie asked ”A stress fracture is a kind of injury caused by excessive fatigue When the muscles are overused, they cannot absorb the vibrations caused by repeated collisions The stress is then carried to the bones, resulting in fractures or cracks in the bones”

Li Du understood what she meant ”How could that happen?” he asked with a smile ”I'm not that tired out”

He continued his search for fire opals Conducting the search on a specific piece of land ains were also much more

Over two days, he found another 40 opals on this one-hectare piece of land In total, he found 58 pieces Although it wasn't yet double the number of opals from the last round, it was already quite a lot more

But, Li Du was dead tired!

Over the last two days, he'd used the little bug er duration than the last time This hy he could find58 opals within two days was quite a feat—hefor opals look easy

But that was not the case It was not easy to search for opals This hy sole piece over a whole month

The fire opals that Li Du had found werenearly a foot deep while those that were deeper required hih rock layers over three feet deep

Besides,of tens of millions of years, ravel

If he hadn't had the little bug to fly in for a look, there was no way Li Du would find the ge's ability to penetrateX-ray vision This made the search for fire opals ular hunters found it so challenging to search for fire opals was that searching for the machines into the national park and could only search by hand When they found luravel or mud balls, they needed to cruemstones in them

They had to pick up pieces of rock, crumble them, or break them apart, by hand—it ay tooat least a couple feet below the ground surface, it would be considered quick of the an area of about three to six square feet in one hour To search through 60 square feet in a day was quite an impossible feat

Li Du had almost emptied all these plots of land of the easily-accessible fire opals It would not be easy for hunters on these plots trying to find fire opals after hie place spanning hundreds of kilometers One square kilometer was one hundred hectares—there was a limit to what Li Du could cover

This time, he kept the fire opals that he had found instead of selling the abnormal would definitely arouse suspicions, especially if he were to sell dozens of fire opals every two or three days

After securing the 58 fire opals, he brought the three of them back to the motel for a rest

When he woke he received a call fro in the national park?”
