Chapter 280 Modern Mountain God 24
Chapter 280 Modern Mountain God 24
I returned to the farm that afternoon, loaded the mushrooms into the car, and prepared to leave. Before leaving, the old woman pulled out a large jar of mushroom sauce and said, "I see you like it, so I made some for you to eat on the way." She was a little reluctant to leave. After all, I'd collected the money but hadn't eaten anything good.
Nizi, who was following him, also stood by the car. Wen Yuan called the old man over, said a few words, and then left.
In the car, "What did you tell the old man?"
Wen Yuan: "That little girl recently had a life-or-death crisis. I taught her how to avoid it. This box of mushroom sauce is also a thank you gift."
"How can you read fortune?"
"I can't read. What I can read, you taught me."
Without waiting for Qiuqiu to ask again, he explained, "Xiao Qingshan gave me a strand of its essence that was fused with Da Qingshan's, so that I could find the remnant of Da Qingshan's mountain spirit. You are a creature of Xiao Qingshan, and I can easily explore her lifeline with Xiao Qingshan's essence."
"Okay, I hope to find the remaining spirit of Daqingshan before dark."
"Well, I should be able to find it tonight."
Qiuqiu: You are becoming more and more weird.
According to Wen Yuan's instructions, they arrived at a large lake with a radius of dozens of miles in less than an hour. There were many fish, shrimps and crabs raised in the lake, and the planning was quite good.
"You said this is Daqing Mountain, are you kidding me?"
"Daqingshan is a resource mountain. After it was completely hollowed out, it became a large pit about 100 meters deep. Gradually, this large reservoir was formed."
"Can you find the origin of Daqing Mountain? It can't be under the water!"
"No, let me sense it." After saying that, he performed some magic spells on a piece of grass by the water.
"There are actually two directions. I tried to lead them."
"After a while, a big turtle came." After a brief exchange with Wen Yuan, it swam away. Wen Yuan walked to a steep slope and grabbed a small golden-gray ball from the top of a yellow stone.
After condensation, it was only the size of a marble, which was the smallest harvest ever.
"Let's go. Da Qingshan completely gave up his identity and merged into the body of that big turtle."
"What's so special about that giant turtle's bloodline? If we have a chance, we can take it away."
"I don't know, maybe there's something special about it."
Qiuqiu didn't force it. In Su Su's previous life, there was Henggu. He discovered that the special bloodlines of the Heavenly Dog and Jade Rabbit had become extremely thin after countless generations of dilution. Before his death, he helped them condense a drop of blood essence and sealed it in their souls. Following Qiuqiu to the world of cultivation, he reincarnated with Qinqin and Qiqi.
After two days of driving, we finally arrived at a desolate abandoned factory.
The route of the ball started from Yi City, drew a semicircle in the eastern part of the mountain province, and planned two semi-arc routes. This was the farthest place from Yi City, and it was also where Xiaoluan Mountain provided the mountain to be swallowed.
The pollution here is serious, so large pieces of stone are collected and carved into landscape stones with unique shapes.
Small stones were processed into cement, but excessive mining resulted in the disappearance of the mountain and the factories were abandoned.
Qiuqiu looked up some information and found out that this was a state-owned cement factory built before the reform and opening up. Because of its high stone content, the factory was ranked among the best in the country. However, the production technology was backward and the pollution was serious. With the closure of the factory, the secondary industries gathered around the factory also disappeared. There were not many villagers around the mountains originally. Now, within a radius of dozens of miles, there is only one gas station still in operation, and there are also a few farmhouses nearby.
Arriving at the ruins of the mountain range that had been razed to the ground, Wen Yuan felt as if someone was looking at him, and an inexplicable sadness welled up in his heart.
I walked into the abandoned factory building by feeling and pulled out a ball of brown light from a pile of rocks waiting to be crushed.
"I disappeared immediately. I had already moved most of my essence to a piece of Qingming Stone that could accommodate me, but I didn't expect that the Qingming Stone would be taken away. I only had time to return to the original center of the essence in the form of a spirit body, but I didn't expect to be brought here so soon. I have no ability to move." The mountain spirit left the mountain and had no energy source. Just like Wen Yuan, even if he had a body, he would slowly dissipate.
"I'll help you condense your essence. Tailao Divine Mountain asked me to take away any mountain spirits who are willing to leave. Are you willing?"
"I won't survive a year out of here."
"This is an origin bead I got that matches your attributes. You can rely on it to nourish yourself first. The place we are going to contains a lot of spiritual energy, so you can survive."
"Okay." After condensing the mountain spirit, he was about to walk out.
The mountain spirit suddenly said: "Go over there, there should be the shattered origin, probably turned into stone foam."
Wen Yuan: "As long as it's still here, nourished by the remaining energy from the mountain, it won't completely dissipate."
"Ok".
In the production workshop of an abandoned factory, Wen Yuan condensed three times in total, each time only the size of a bean.
The group was about to go back when they heard calls from outside. Then a burly man came in impatiently: "There's no one here for dozens of miles. You guys stay here safely."
Shan Ling: "That's the workers' rest room. Someone must be here."
Qiuqiu: "Wenyuan, can you see what happened?"
Shan Ling: "Let me do it. I'm more familiar with this place and I still have some control."
The mountain spirit flashed, and within ten minutes, it had an answer: "Three large men, two little boys of four or five, a girl in her teens, a girl of seventeen or eighteen, and two other men in the car outside. They're human traffickers. I don't even know when this place became their temporary base."
Wen Yuan: "That eleven or twelve-year-old girl smells familiar. She seems to be the girl from the old man's house who stayed here yesterday."
Qiuqiu: "Didn't you remind the old man that his granddaughter was in trouble? Why is he still taking it so lightly?"
"Let's just call the police. I've heard there might be some official backstabbing at the local police station. Can we just report it directly to the higher-ups? Wen Na doesn't have any connections in that area."
"You go find Qin Xiao. This is out of town, and Wen Na's network of connections doesn't extend here. Qin Xiao and Fu Chubo both have great abilities." One has strong luck, and the other has great influence from his ancestors, so both can solve this problem.
Qiuqiu still called Fu Chubo. When he heard that Qiuqiu had encountered human traffickers, he immediately expressed his willingness to help. He was discussing company cooperation with Qin Xiao at that time. When he heard the address Qiuqiu mentioned, he said that he had an acquaintance who was in charge of this area, and that this person was absolutely reliable.
Wen Yuan: This merit should be shared by Qin Xiao.
Qiuqiu is quite skilled, but his physical condition is not good, so he can only hit one man at most. Although Wen Yuan is a mountain spirit, his body is even more broken. Only Canshanling spent his energy to create a simple sleight of hand to prevent the children from suffering anymore.
They decided to wait here and not act recklessly. Anyway, they all wanted to rest for the night.
