Mr. Yu shrank his neck, not knowing why he felt a chill on his neck.
He said in a trembling voice: "The little old man knows everything he knows, and he can't stop talking about it. But you see, it's almost time, and the three worshippers are waiting for you on the lake."
"Lake? What lake?"
"There is actually a lake in this mine on the top of the mountain?"
"If there is a lake, why do people still carry water up the mountain every day?"
The question mark on Chen Yang's forehead was immediately suppressed by the matter he originally wanted to ask about, which was related to Chen Wang.
He was 70-80% sure that Chen Wang should have accidentally obtained the Qi Pill Dao at the Mingshi Mine.
So, can we get relevant clues from Mr. Yu?
It was precisely with this in mind that Chen Yang saw Yu Laoer's wrinkled face, just like he saw the collagen-filled face of a 28-year-old girl. No matter how you look at it, it's so gratifying.
However, when the question came to his mouth, Chen Yang swallowed it back forcefully.
"No hurry, no rush!"
"If I go to the Mingshi Mine at this juncture, there may not be someone paying attention to me."
"I didn't care before, but now I have to be steady and not leave any trace."
Chen Yang closed his eyes without anyone noticing, and then opened them quickly. His expression suddenly became calm, and his eyes regained their composure.
He smiled slightly and said: "That's natural. It's nothing. It's just a small talk. Let's just talk while walking."
Yu Laoer breathed a sigh of relief and felt that his whole body had lost several kilograms. He quickly said: "Okay, okay, then... the little old man is leading the way?"
"Go together and go together."
Chen Yang took Yu Laoer's arm and walked towards the so-called "lake" with him.
"How come there is a lake on the top of this mountain?"
Chen Yang planned to chat for a few words first, then bring up the topic and ask about things related to Chen Wang.
Unexpectedly, as soon as Mr. Yu started talking, it would come down like a flash flood after a heavy rain, and it could not be stopped.
According to what he said, this lake is indeed a lake, but it is not natural. It only took about a year to appear.
"That place was originally a thick rock, and there was a spring on the rock. The water was bitter, so it was originally called Kushui Rock."
"Before the Mingshi Mine was discovered, the people who lived a hard life on this copper-green mountain didn't think about filtering or enduring hardships to drink this bitter water spring, so as to save themselves the pain of carrying water up the mountain every day."
"Everyone who tries always gives up."
"Bitter water spring is not just about bitterness. Anyone who drinks the water from this spring will feel the same bitterness in their mouths as if they have been holding Coptis chinensis in their mouths for several days, and they will be extremely thirsty, as if they have never drank water."
"To put it simply, the consequences are more serious than if people at the beach drink seawater directly without fresh water."
"The mountain people had no choice but to give up and carry on the water honestly."
"Originally, the bitter water flowed by itself, and people did not drink it. I never thought that as the Mingshi Mine continued to develop downwards, the mine tunnel gradually extended to the bottom of the bitter water rock."
"At the beginning, it was just water seepage in the mine tunnels, and the miners had to mine in the mud."
At that time, representatives of the miners asked Mr. Yu whether they should change the direction of mining, and if the water kept seeping like this, something would happen.
Mr. Yu is kind-hearted and can't bear the suffering of those miners. If anything happens, I don't know how many families will hang up white flags and mourn first and then starve to death.
So he immediately reported the situation to the Dongfeng Yu family.
The instructions from Yu Dahai, the head of the Yu family, were to persist for another month and then change the route.
This is because the Yin Demon Sect will collect this year's underworld stone mine next month. If the mine is diverted during the report, problems such as digging in the wrong direction or poor veins may occur, which will affect the delivery of ore to the Yin Demon Sect.
