Xiao Jingyu and Li Haiyan were a little puzzled when they saw Xiao Zheng's sudden change in expression. Li Haiyan asked: "Master, what's wrong? Who called?"
Xiao Zheng replied: "It's Mr. An."
At the same time, a thought had already passed through Xiao Zheng's mind. He calmed himself down and said to An Ruyi: "Mr. An, it's nothing. I just asked at the time. It's best to proceed according to the revised plan.
Construction, otherwise it may affect that crypt."
An Ruyi said: "Yes, Mayor Xiao, we have asked the contractor to completely stop work and make rectifications. The next step will be to severely punish the contractor. Our Chief Engineer Gan will also accept punishment from the group."
Xiao Zheng was not interested in the internal affairs of their group. He said: "It would be great if we can adjust to the construction according to the revised plan. By the way, I want to find time to go to the construction site to have a look. Mr. An can help us build the town by then."
Are people coming in and out?”
"Of course," An Ruyi said. The situation this time is indeed due to the poor management of Anhai Group. Now Xiao Zheng doesn't settle accounts with them, which is already a good result. Xiao Zheng said he wanted to go and have a look, I'm afraid it's also because
If you are worried, you can naturally let him see it, "I will tell the security guards of our project that as long as they are the leaders of the town, they will be allowed to go. I will tell them right away."
Xiao Zheng said: "Okay, I'll trouble you, Mr. An. See you when you have time."
An Ruyi felt that Xiao Zheng was really easy to deal with and had no official airs on her at all. Her affection for Xiao Zheng doubled in her heart. She said happily: "See you when I have time."
Xiao Zheng put down the phone, turned to Xiao Jingyu and said: "Secretary Xiao, I have something. I wonder if you would like to give it a try?"
Xiao Jingyu and Li Haiyan both looked at Xiao Zheng, wondering what he was talking about.
Xiao Jingyu asked: "What are you trying?" Xiao Zheng said: "Follow me to Lushui Village, the hilltop where the Anhai Group hotel project is located, and I found a cave. I have always suspected that Secretary Xiao's physical changes
It has something to do with the construction of that project. But this matter sounds a bit weird, so I didn’t tell you, Xiao Shu.”
Xiao Jingyu and Li Haiyan looked at each other, and Li Haiyan's eyes were also full of suspicion. Obviously she didn't know about this either. Xiao Jingyu said: "Okay, I'm already like this anyway, so what if I go take a look? When will I go?
?”
Xiao Zheng said: "If you want to go, go now."
Li Haiyan was worried about Xiao Jingyu's health: "Master, can you go again tomorrow? It's so late and Secretary Xiao is so weak. Isn't it inappropriate to go up the mountain at this time?" Xiao Zheng said: "I have also considered it.
This point. However, if you want to go, you should go now because tomorrow is the day for the public election physical examination. If it is postponed to tomorrow, the physical examination will definitely be delayed, which means that Secretary Xiao has given up the position of deputy mayor in the public election.
If we go now, if Secretary Xiao’s health gets better, we won’t be able to go for a physical examination tomorrow!”
Xiao Jingyu's eyes brightened slightly. Is there still hope for him to continue to participate in the public election? Is there still hope for his body to recover? Xiao Jingyu said: "If you really have this hope, you must give it a try no matter what."
When it came to Xiao Jingyu's physical and political life, Li Haiyan did not dare to neglect or stop her. She said, "I will prepare flashlights, jackets and other tools."
Xiao Zheng nodded towards her.
Half an hour later, they were ready. Xiao Jingyu and Li Haiyan put on windproof jackets and leather boots. Li Haiyan also carried a backpack, which contained dry food, water, a flashlight, etc.
Xiao Zheng didn't have his own room in the Anxian International Hotel, so he naturally had nothing to change into. He still had the same trousers, leather shoes, and suit jacket. Li Haiyan asked him: "Master, do you want to go home and change your clothes?"
He said, "We don't have enough time. Let's go quickly. I have no problem."
The three of them went downstairs, and the driver Xiao Zhong was already waiting for them in the foyer. After getting in the car, Xiao Zheng said: "Go to the Anhai Group Hotel Project Office."
Xiao Zhong was surprised that he was going up the mountain at this time, but he didn't say much. Mayor Xiao and Secretary Xiao set out together, there must be an important mission. Xiao Zhong drove fast and steadily.
On the way, Xiao Zheng called his parents and asked how they were doing. He thought that if there was anything strange in the village, Xiao Rongrong and Fei Qingmei would definitely be the first to feel it. However, both Xiao Rongrong and Fei Qingmei said that they both
Okay, nothing happened to Murakami. Xiao Zheng said, that's good, let them rest early.
Fei Qingmei suddenly said: "Xiao Zheng, the water in the village has been a little bitter these past two days, I don't know what's going on?" Xiao Zheng was surprised: "Is the water a little bitter? Was it like this before?" Fei Qingmei said,
When mining was started in Shishan, the stream water in the village was polluted and almost undrinkable. But after the "Beautiful Countryside Construction" stopped mining, the stream water in the mountain became clear again, and everyone began to use the stream water with confidence again. People also said that our place
The water has a lot of minerals, and drinking it is good for the body. But I don’t know why, but it has been a bit bitter these past two days.
Xiao Zheng also felt strange, but he was not an expert in this field after all, so he said to his mother: "I will ask the person in charge of the reservoir in the town tomorrow." Fei Qingmei said: "Okay, son, you should go to bed early and don't stay up late."
At this time, Xiao Zheng's car happened to pass by the door of his house. But Xiao Zheng had a special mission today and couldn't tell his mother, so he said: "Okay, I understand." Fei Qingmei said: "Why did I hear the door?
There was a car passing by, and my heart seemed to jump a little, couldn't it be you, my son?"
It seemed that there was a vague feeling between mother and son. Xiao Zheng hurriedly told a white lie and said: "Of course it's not me. It's so late! Mom, go to bed early and come to see you and dad in the morning.
Fei Qingmei said: "When you have time, just come back and have dinner."
Xiao Zheng's car passed through Lushui Village at the foot of the mountain, went around the winding mountain road, and arrived at the Anhai Group Hotel Project Team. The security guard of the project team checked the license plate and asked who was coming. When he heard that it was the leader of the town, he
I felt relieved immediately. Boss An Ruyi had told them that if the town leaders came, they would be let in.
It's just that the security guard didn't expect that the town leaders would come so late.
Xiao Zheng and the others got out of the car, and he deliberately asked the security guard: "I heard that the hotel's contractor did not follow the revised plan and was ordered to stop work?"
The security guard saw that Xiao Zheng's demeanor and manner of speaking were like a leader, so he hurriedly said: "Yes, leader, so we will stop work today. After adjustments are made tomorrow, work will continue." Xiao Zheng said: "This project of yours
It’s very important and there can’t be any mistakes, so we’ll take a look at it overnight.”
The security guard said: "Thank you, leader."
Xiao Zheng looked around the construction site. Although the construction was stopped, there were many lighting lights on site, which illuminated the entire construction site. Xiao Zheng said, "Okay, let's take a walk and take a look. You go and do your work." The security guard said: "
Leaders, please be careful, there are bound to be things stumbling on the construction site, just call me if you have anything." Xiao Zheng nodded and said: "Okay, you go ahead."
The security guard went back to the duty room again.
Xiao Zheng turned to his driver and said, "Xiao Zhong, you also come with us." Xiao Zhong immediately agreed and said, "Okay, Mayor Xiao." So, the four of them walked towards the construction site together.
The construction site that had stopped working at night seemed very quiet, giving people an uneasy feeling. Xiao Zheng said: "After the hotel is built, it will be completely different." Xiao Jingyu looked at Xiao Zheng, she knew
, Xiao Zheng wanted to dispel the chill in our hearts by letting everyone imagine the beauty of a five-star hotel in the future.
When we arrived at the entrance of the crypt, there was a sign erected in this place: "No one allowed to enter." It was dark inside.
Li Haiyan was a little panicked when she saw it, and couldn't help but ask Xiao Jingyu: "Xiao Shuji, do you really want to go down?" Xiao Jingyu said: "Listen to Mayor Xiao."
Xiao Zheng said: "If you want to find out what's going on, you have to go down." Xiao Jingyu said: "We're already here, let's go down." Xiao Zhong said: "I'll use the flashlight." Li Haiyan put down her backpack.
After taking out the flashlight, Xiao Zhong turned on the flashlight and said, "I'm in front. Leaders, follow me down."
Soon they had descended to the bottom of the crypt. Anhai Group had maintained this place well. The crypt had been cleaned and there was no dirt. However, the crypt was a crypt after all, and the air was not circulating, making it a bit stuffy.
After they walked dozens of meters in the cave, Li Haiyan and Xiao Zhong suddenly felt that their bodies were extremely heavy. Li Haiyan said softly: "Master, I don't know what's going on. I feel like my whole body is being pulled by a force.
Pull it down, I can't go forward."
Xiao Zhong is a strong young man. He also said: "Me too, I can't move forward, otherwise I might lie on the ground. What's wrong with this place? It's so weird!" Xiao Zheng explained: "This is normal, you guys
Don’t worry, the same goes for the people who came in last time.”
Xiao Jingyu next to him said, "But I don't feel it." Xiao Zheng looked at Xiao Jingyu strangely. She was still walking forward as usual, seemingly unable to feel the strong gravity of the ground.
Xiao Zheng also stepped forward, feeling no special gravity.
Xiao Zhong and Li Haiyan were very surprised and looked at Xiao Jingyu and Xiao Zheng. Xiao Zheng and Xiao Jingyu also looked at each other, feeling an inexplicable feeling of sympathy in their hearts.
Xiao Zheng held even stronger hope that the answer to Xiao Jingyu's illness might be found here. Xiao Zheng turned to Xiao Zhong and Li Haiyan and said, "Wait for us here, let's go in and take a look."
Li Haiyan said: "Xiao Shu. Secretary, Master, you must be careful."
Xiao Jingyu was also driven by strong curiosity at this moment. After nodding, he walked in. The two turned a corner and walked a few dozen meters forward before reaching the dead end that Xiao Zheng encountered last time.
Xiao Jingyu touched the wall with his hand and asked, "Can't you move forward?" Xiao Zheng also pushed the surrounding walls again, but there was no movement: "I just came here last time."
Xiao Zheng brought Xiao Jingyu in this time to see if the underground cave inside had been damaged by piling. But judging from the current situation, it had not.
Both of them were a little disappointed. If it was really a dead end, this crypt would be just an ordinary crypt. The two of them continued to observe in the crypt. Unintentionally, their backs touched each other and they both turned around.
As they came forward, the two people suddenly faced each other, their eyes intertwined, and in such a small space, their hearts suddenly started beating loudly, and there was a kind of lasting tenderness, which contained the urge to have each other.
.
Suddenly, the mud beneath their feet loosened, and the two of them suddenly lost weight and fell down. With two "bang" and "bang" sounds, the two of them fell into the water.
The bitingly cold water almost made people faint.
But Xiao Zheng's mind was very clear. He told himself to swim quickly. He clapped his hands, kicked his legs, and floated immediately. Xiao Jingyu could also swim. Although his body was about to freeze, his desire to survive was still there.
Let her come out of the water.
Looking around, there was no light. Xiao Zheng shouted: "Xiao Shu. Secretary, Xiao Shu. Secretary." Xiao Jingyu was also surprised to hear Xiao Zheng's voice: "I am here."
The two quickly held hands and hugged each other. Xiao Zheng said: "We have to swim in one direction." Xiao Jingyu: "Okay..."
Unexpectedly, they only swam a few meters before they reached the shore, and the two of them lay down hard.
"You can't see anything here." Xiao Jingyu felt cold and scared. Xiao Zheng said, "I have a lighter."
This may be the benefit of smoking. Xiao Zheng took out the lighter from his coat pocket and lit it. A small area of the cave was illuminated. They discovered that the cave was at least a thousand square meters. The pool they fell into just now was just
One of them. There are many waterways in this cave, which are connected with each other to form a network.
This network seemed to have a strange shape, but the lighter's light was limited, and they were standing on it, unable to see clearly the pattern formed by the entire water network.
In addition, Xiao Zheng also found strangely that after he and Xiao Jingyu came out of the water, their bodies were stained red like blood, and his shirt also turned red. Suddenly, Xiao Zheng found several stakes driven into the pool.
With the water channel, it is like nailing the water network.
Xiao Zheng ran to the nearest place and wanted to push the piles, but how could he push the huge piles? It seemed that these piles were driven down casually without following the plan.
"I'm cold." At this time, Xiao Jingyu suddenly hugged her body tightly and shrank up.
After Xiao Jingyu reminded him, Xiao Zheng also felt cold all over. After all, they had just fallen into the ice water and the heat was quickly drained away.
Xiao Zheng quickly looked around to see what there was, dead branches and leaves, as long as it could keep him warm. But where could these plants be found in this ancient cave?
He shook it with a lighter, and suddenly found a pile of huge things at a slightly higher place. Xiao Zheng ran over, and it turned out to be a pile of bones. It should have been left behind by the rotting flesh of a strange large animal after it died here.
bone.
Xiao Zheng murmured, "Sorry, I don't know which mythical beast you are. We are freezing to death, so we can only use your bones to keep warm."
Xiao Zheng picked up the bones and lit them with a lighter. The flames of the bones suddenly started to glow, and the surroundings soon became warm.
Xiao Zheng saw that Xiao Jingyu's black hair and clothes were still dripping with water. Xiao Zheng said: "Xiao Shu. Secretary, you can't wear these clothes anymore, otherwise the firelight won't warm you." Xiao Jingyu looked at Xiao Zheng, and then looked at these.
Fire, her face suddenly turned red.
But the waves of chill on her body made her unable to hesitate any longer. She took off her clothes one by one, leaving only her underwear. Her bumpy body and snow-like skin were embraced by the firelight. Xiao Zheng said:
"I turned around. Your underwear is still damp. It's best not to stick it to your body. Let it dry by the fire before wearing it."
Xiao Zheng turned around as expected. Xiao Jingyu also took off the last of his clothes. She said: "Your clothes are also wet, take them off quickly and bake them."
Xiao Zheng also took off his clothes. The two of them were warming up over the fire. Xiao Jingyu looked at Xiao Zheng's back sitting on the ground, and a fierce flame suddenly ignited in her heart.
Maybe I still can't avoid the bad luck of getting sick and dying. If I don't give myself to this man today, maybe I won't have a chance in this life. In desperate situations, the constraints of human society fall off like rusty shackles, and people often don't
She didn't have so many worries. She bit her lips lightly and said, "Xiao Zheng, I'm still very cold."
Xiao Zheng turned his head and said, "Is it still cold?" He accidentally saw Xiao Jingyu's entire body. Xiao Jingyu took the initiative to crawl towards him and took a few steps. Xiao Zheng could no longer control himself. The two hugged each other.
The firelight swayed beside it, and the two people joined together were like two fires, entangled, undulating, swirling, intoxicated, and enjoying themselves in a passionate dance of life...
At the same time, they did not notice that the red water in the pool next to them actually changed color, from pink to crystal blue. Even the stakes driven into the pool were penetrated by the mysterious water and turned into
The powder fell from the top of the cave, entered the water network, and was washed away.
And on the water net, blue water vapor emerged, floating into the air like a phoenix, and then disappeared at the top of the cave.
After the heat, Xiao Zheng and Xiao Jingyu hugged each other and lay next to the fire. Xiao Jingyu's body was also covered with a layer of crystal blue powder to protect her body temperature.
The next day, Xiao Zheng woke up first and saw a glimmer of light floating in the hole. Xiao Jingyu was still lying next to him. He saw that the clothes had been dried, so he gently covered Xiao Jingyu's body.
At this time, Xiao Zhong and Li Haiyan, who were waiting in the cave, were still restless. They stayed up all night, worried about Xiao Zheng and Xiao Jingyu.
"Haiyan, Xiaozhong, are you still inside?" Suddenly Xiao Zheng and Xiao Jingyu's shouts rang out from outside the cave.
The two of them were overjoyed and shouted: "We are still here!" My completed novels "The Remaining Fragrance of Beauty" and "Business Road" can be found by searching directly on (Feng.huang.com Bookstore), and everyone enjoyed reading them in one go!
