Chapter 409 Mine(1/2)
Mo Hua wanted to figure out the disappearance of the mine repairman, but he had to wait for Situ Fang to ask clearly.
In the next three days, Mo Hua still looked for Yan in Nanyue City every day, but she still had no clues.
On the contrary, there was news from Situ Fang.
It was still in that small teahouse, Situ Fang invited Mo Hua to have tea, and then said to Mo Hua:
"I went to ask the family of the missing mine repairman, what happened. They didn't say it, but they were still making trouble. They said that Tingsi and the Lu family were in a snare and bullying the good people..."
"Lu family?"
"The mine belongs to the Lu family."
"Oh." Mo Hua nodded.
Situ Fang continued: "I locked them up for a few days. They knew they were scared, so they told the truth."
"What did they say?" Mo Hua said curiously.
Situ Fang sighed:
"These missing mine repairmen disappeared to steal the mine..."
"Do you steal the Lu family's mine?"
"Yes." Situ Fang nodded, "It is said that before they disappeared, they told their family that they were going to get rich and they didn't have to live a hard life."
"Then I went out while the night was dark and I never came back..."
Mo Hua understood, "They were afraid that the Lu family would know about this matter and that the Lu family would not compensate them for their spirit stones, so they dare not say it?"
"Yes."
Situ Fang was a little helpless.
I'm afraid that the Lu family will not only not compensate for the spirit stones, but also have to claim compensation from the families of these missing mine repairmen.
Because stealing mines is a taboo in mining practice.
The mine they stole was nominally owned by the Lu family.
"No wonder..." Mo Hua nodded.
That's why they are unwilling to tell the truth.
Of course, there is also part of the reason, because they are a little more eager to see Situ Fang being soft-hearted.
"Sister Situ, what are you going to do?" Mo Hua asked.
Situ Fang pondered: "I can't tell you about the mine stealing... The most important thing now is to find ways to find these missing miners. Whether they are life or death, they need an explanation."
Situ Fang sighed, "And if these mine cultivators die, they need to find a way to ask the Lu family for some compensation, otherwise the families of these mine cultivators will not be able to survive without their income."
Mo Hua also felt a little moved and couldn't help but ask:
"Will the Lu family compensate?"
"I went to ask, and the Lu family said that unless the bodies of these mine repairmen were found in the mine, they would not compensate them."
Mo Hua frowned, "Did the Lu family do this before?"
"Yes," Situ Fang nodded, "No corpse will be seen, no spirit stone will be compensated."
She explained again:
"It is indeed a bit unkind to do this, but because there was a mine repairman who had committed suicide by fraud and fraudulent compensation before, it was difficult to blame them for anything."
Mo Hua thought for a while and asked again: "Then are there any clues for these missing mine repairmen?"
"Yes." Situ Fang took out a map and handed it to the ink painting.
"I marked the map on the missing mine repairman when he left the door and the mine from which hill."
Situ Fang sighed again:
"Their family didn't want to say these things, but now they know they are afraid, so they said them."
"After all, once these things are said and let the Lu family know, there will be a handle."
"Even if these missing mine repairmen die, they will die in vain. Their families will not receive any compensation."
"Then let's investigate secretly to prevent the Lu family from knowing." Mo Hua whispered.
Situ Fang nodded, but when he was halfway through his head, he suddenly reacted and corrected:
"It's me who checked it, it's not us. You are a child, why are you doing this kind of thing?"
Mo Hua turned her eyes and said with a smile:
"Sister Situ, you are so kind to me, I want to help you too."
Situ Fang felt warm in her heart, and then she realized something was wrong and looked at the ink painting suspiciously:
"real?"
"Really!" Mo Hua nodded seriously.
Situ Fang still refused:
"No, this is a bit strange and cannot involve you."
Mo Hua said: "One fence, three stakes, one hero, three gangs."
"I, my senior brother and sister, will help you. Besides, there are formations in the mine, and you may not be able to find some places..."
Situ Fang frowned.
The formation is indeed a problem...
There are indeed many formations in the mine. If you don’t know the formation, it is easy to ignore some key points.
She knows a little formation, but she doesn't know much, and she probably can't see the trick inside.
It doesn't seem to be okay to invite other formation masters.
The Lu family in Nanyue City is the most powerful and has also been intimate with other formation divisions. She went to the mine to find someone, but no formation division would help her.
Although she didn't know how good the formation of the ink painting was, Zhang Lan praised it.
Zhang Lan's family is born and has a good vision. He praised the ink painting formation for good, and the ink painting formation should be really good...
Situ Fang hesitated for a long time before he made up his mind:
"Okay, but you must pay attention to safety. The mine is a big deal and you must not be neglected."
"Sister Situ, don't worry."
Mo Hua nodded.
...
The discussion is completed, two days later.
Situ Fang brought in ink paintings, Bai Zisheng and Bai Zixi to the Lu family's mine.
The mine repairman disappeared and the Daoting Department inspected the Lu family, and there was no reason to refuse, and they did not dare to refuse.
However, the supervisor of the Lu family who was in charge of the mine did not look good.
So Situ Fang brought Mo Hua and the other three, as well as a Lu family monk who accompanied him into the mine.
This is the first time Mohua has entered the mine.
Before, he just watched from a distance on the road, and only heard the jingling, feeling noisy and busy.
Now that I can see it up close, I realize the hardships of mining repairs.
In the Xiaohuangzhou area, the weather is hot and the mountains and rocks are hot.
These miners, who were darkened, were naked and bent over, revealing whip marks on their bodies. Under the supervision of the supervisor, they tried their best to mine ore.
The mine here produces bluestone iron ore.
This type of iron ore is cheap and hard, and it takes a lot of effort to dig it out.
These mine repairs require one day to dig to earn a spirit stone.
If you are not physical cultivation for body refining, you can't do this job at all.
Even if you have strong physical practice, many of them may not be able to support you.
This is just an outer mountain. If you reach the mine deep in the depths, it will be dark and humid and full of foul air. It will not only be hard but also more dangerous. If you are not careful, you will also lose your life.
The ink painting looks a little uncomfortable.
Bai Zisheng and Bai Zixi looked at it and frowned.
Bai Zisheng couldn't help but say to Mo Hua:
"These mine repairs are too miserable..."
The Lu monk who accompanied him next to him snorted coldly, "What's the miserable thing? People have high and low status, so they are the fate, so they should do this."
"On the contrary, they should thank my Lu family. Without my Lu family, they worked hard for a day and couldn't even make a profit of this spirit stone."
To be continued...
