Longevity starts with learning

Chapter 70 Something is wrong

What can make Li Jinghong tempted... what?
Obviously it couldn't be ordinary money.

Chu Mu has never seen Li Jinghong be tempted by money. The only time he has ever been tempted, or greedy, is this time... Qili Village's mysterious and extraordinary inheritance from a higher level.

That is to say, what makes Li Jinghong tempted is a higher level of mystery and transcendence.

And the man in white, who had just arrived, chased and killed the young man, and then refined the old man's body into a mummy.

It is obviously impossible for the man in white to be tempted by worldly pieces of paper money, but it must be his extraordinary interests at that level.

That is to say... In the mine, there is some kind of treasure hidden that makes the man in white even fall in love with him at that level.

Suddenly, Chu Mu suddenly thought of the source of all these turmoil.

That is the mine production increase order issued by the county.

Now it seems that it should be the will of the Nanshan Li family.

But no matter what, all the turmoil in Nanshan Town and even Qinghe County during this period was caused by that paper order.

The burden of corvee, which was already unbearable, was artificially increased again. Only then did the civil uprising in Qili Village cause the current disturbance.

And this source, could it be the reason why Li Jinghong and the man in white were looking for the so-called treasure in the mine?

As far as Chu Mu knew, Nanshan Iron Mine has been mined for decades, and although the output fluctuates every year, there has never been a request for a large-scale increase in production.

This possibility undoubtedly still exists.

Chu Mu took a bite of the big meat bun, his eyes flickered slightly.

After eating a bowl of noodles and a few steamed buns, he was finally able to barely fill his stomach. He mentioned the few steamed buns that the shop waiter had already packed, and then Chu Mu walked slowly downstairs.

After walking a few steps, before reaching the downstairs, the originally noisy inn suddenly became silent with the shrill whistle coming from far to near on the street.

Immediately afterwards, one by one, the inspectors put down their bowls and chopsticks one after another, and rushed out of the inn.

The whistle is stern and harsh, and its meaning is also great, that is, the meaning of convening!
When the whistle is sounded, except for the guarded inspections, all other inspections must be assembled at the inspection station within a quarter of an hour. Those who delay will be cut off!
Subconsciously, Chu Mu remembered this military order from the inspection station.

At this moment, Chu Mu didn't have time to think about it, so he went straight to the inspection station with the few baskets of buns.

Before arriving at the inspection station, Chu Mu could already clearly see the figures gathered inside and outside the inspection station, and the chaotic noise was even more clearly heard.

Most of the inspectors looked dazed, and they were obviously a little puzzled by the sudden assembly.

"Thousands of households have an order, order all off-duty inspectors to enter the mine to obey the order."

"Assemble, quickly enter the mountain!"

Before Chu Mu inquired, the shouts of assembly had already sounded.

Hearing this, Chu Mu couldn't help but jump in his heart. The corvees in the mine rebelled because they gathered so abruptly into the mountain?
As the crowd gathered, without even counting the number of people, even with an order, the assembled inspectors went straight to the mine.

With such a haste and urgency, it was obvious that Chu Mu was not the only one who was worried. After all, civil uprisings in this Nanshan town are really not uncommon!

But no matter how uncommon, if the real people have changed, it is the little people like them who are fighting with real knives and guns, and they are going to fight with their lives!
The miserable battle in Qili Village is still vivid in my mind!
Right now, there are thousands of corvee workers in the mine. If this is a civil uprising, it is no joke.

There are thousands of corvees, and once the blood is on the head, each person with a hoe can drown their hundreds of inspections.

Chu Mu tried his best to recall the terrain in the mine, and he had already made up his mind, if it was really a civil uprising, the situation was not right, or if he was required to fight with his life, then he would break out decisively!
Today is different.

As a newcomer before, everything was blacked out, and I didn't even have the most basic self-protection ability.

But right now, those who can understand, also understand, have learned martial arts, and have some self-protection ability.

The big deal is to take off this skin, have money and martial arts, and live a good life wherever you go.

"Ok?"

As soon as he entered the mine, Chu Mu couldn't help being startled when he looked around the mine.

The order in the mine is still the same, the corvee workers and the patrol inspections are as usual, and there is nothing unusual, let alone the civil uprising.

There is no civil uprising... Then such a battle is...

Chu Mu was puzzled, but soon, when the team passed through several mining areas and stopped at the bottom of the mine, seeing the conspicuous white clothes and the many corvée summoned beside him, Chu Mu seemed to understand a little bit.

"Thousands."

The leading inspector stepped forward quickly.

Li Jinghong nodded, then looked at the man in white, hesitant to speak.

"When the person arrives, let's start."

The man in white glanced at the many inspections that came, and waved his hands indifferently.

"As ordered!"

Li Jinghong hurriedly responded, and then he yelled at the corvee to come forward, and the inspectors, under his order, organized teams and guarded all parts of the mining area.

"What are you digging for?"

Xu Yuan bit the bun, and looked curiously at the dozens of corvees who were busy.

"If you want to eat, take it yourself."

Chu Mu stuffed the baskets of steamed buns he was carrying into Xu Yuan's hands, and his gaze also looked at Li Jinghong, who was bowing and humbly, and the man in white not far away.

Freeze for a while, and then turn to the dozens of corvee digging facing the mountain wall.

What they are doing in such a battle, combined with what they have seen and heard during this period, it is obviously not difficult to see.

After wandering around last night, the man in white and Li Jinghong probably found what they had been looking for..."treasure".

And right now, it's clearly digging.

It's just... Shouldn't the fewer people know about such things, the better?
Why did they take so much trouble to bring all of their rest inspections here?
Chu Mu couldn't figure it out, but as long as it wasn't a civil uprising, he wouldn't be forced to work hard, and Chu Mu didn't bother to think about it, so he just watched the fun.

clang clang...

Dozens of corvée wielded their tools vigorously, gravel splashed, sparks were everywhere, and harsh collision sounds echoed in the mine pit.

The corvettes worked hard, and the nearly two hundred inspectors who were transferred here just stood around the mine pit, looking at the dozens of corvettes doing nothing.

Although he was quite curious about what he was digging, after looking at it for a while, he didn't see anything special. Chu Mu didn't bother to pay attention, so he found a stone and sat down, then began to think about his own energy and blood cultivation.

Time passed slowly amidst the clang clang clang.

Chu Mu was also like an old monk sitting still, sitting firmly on the stone without any movement.

A quarter of an hour, two quarters of an hour, half an hour, an hour, two hours...

Time passed, everything was as usual, nothing unusual.

But Chu Mu, who was sitting cross-legged, suddenly woke up!
not right...
