Chapter 38 Li Wu’s Journey to the Illusion (1)(2/2)
Among all ores, Fei Jade is an extremely rare species. Even a piece of Fei Jade the size of a thumb can be sold for a price that is enough to cover the expenses of a family like theirs for several years.
On the way to Yigu, Li Touer and Li Wu chatted.
"Awu, I heard that the young master from the city official's family has fallen in love with the Guiming family's Shuang girl. Is this true or false?"
Li Wu raised his thick eyebrows: "I don't know."
Does he look like he would pry into these gossips?
Mr. Li also knew his son's character, so he continued: "Speaking of which, that girl Li Shuang is indeed pretty! My father even went to their house to talk about you before, and wanted to see if we could make a match.
I tried to bring you two together, but it’s a pity that Li Guiming didn’t agree.”
Li Wu turned to look at his father, wondering: "When did it happen? Why don't I know at all?"
"Oops! It was just last year! Didn't this fail? Of course I will tell you if it does."
Boss Li carried the hoe and said with a smile.
"You didn't even intend to get my consent."
"The orders of parents, the words of matchmakers. If this still waits for your consent, then your mother and I will never have to have grandchildren in our lives."
Li Wu hummed and stopped replying.
However, he didn't speak, but his father was a real talker. Leader Li continued:
"But I seem to have heard that Li Shuang doesn't seem to like that young master very much, and I don't know what the result will be?"
Li Wu was listening on the sidelines and didn't bother to interrupt.
The father and son talked like this and soon arrived in Yigu.
The so-called Yigu is a valley that crosses the mountains. In the past, few people came here. The reason is very simple. As long as there are mountains, there are inevitably the existence of wild beasts and monsters.
The people in the town are basically ordinary people, and few dare to come here.
But now that news about the Feiyu in Yigu has spread, a lot of people have gathered here, and many people from other small towns and villages have come here to mine.
There are more people, so we are less afraid.
Li Wu stepped forward and took a look. There were indeed a lot of people gathered outside Yigu. They were mining different places and digging hard. There were many faces he was familiar with among them.
Li Wu looked at everyone's baskets and found that they were basically empty. The best thing was that there was only a small amount of black iron ore.
Yigu is not actually a mineral land.
Li Wu, who saw all this clearly, turned around and said to his father: "Dad, let's go back to the mine and move the mountains honestly. Look at everyone here, they have basically harvested nothing. Minerals like Feiyu
, the output has always been very small, we can’t waste time here.”
Leader Li glanced at him and said with a smile: "Everyone has just started mining. It's normal that you haven't found anything. Minerals are usually found underground. Maybe you can find them if you dig a few more times."

As soon as Li Wu heard this, he knew that he could not persuade his father, so he had to give up.
He followed Mr. Li forward, stopped at a place, and started digging hard.
The sun rises slowly in the east, and the scorching sun shines on everyone. Everyone is sweating.
‘I spend so much effort just to bet on that glimmer of hope.’
Li Wu sighed slightly, he still preferred a down-to-earth life.
……
Outside the secret realm, the place forgotten by Li Wu.
Many students in Fengyun County raised their heads and looked at the pictures on the light screen. There were fifteen pictures, and Li Wu was in the last row.
Above his picture, a green light slowly grows on a red strip.
This is a sign that his Illusion Gate has begun to accumulate energy.
All players who enter the Soul-Living Illusion will have such a red energy. Their performance in the illusion will determine whether their red energy can turn green. Once all of their red energy turns green, the player will be considered to have passed the illusion.
And if all the red energy cannot be turned into green within the specified time, the ranking will be determined by the amount of green energy.
At this time, the green energy of Li Wu and nearly half of the people on the field had begun to generate and increase.
Seeing this, Cheng Kaiming breathed a sigh of relief: "It seems that Da Zhuang is worthy of everyone's trust in terms of character."
Nangong Yaosha nodded in agreement: "After all, he is the one who can say those bold words."
Cheng Kaiming also nodded: "After all, he is someone who can speak such bold words."
Dongfang Yao on the side listened to the two riddles and asked with her round eyes: "Junior brother, what are you talking about?"
Nangong Yao struggled a little and decided to reveal Li Wu's dark history.
……
Li Wu has never thought that he is a smart person, but he has never thought that he is stupid, but today, he really feels that he has made a wrong decision.
He and his father came to Yigu early in the morning and started mining while staring at the scorching sun. But after a whole day, they didn't even dig any decent black iron ore, let alone Feiyu.
He doesn't feel comfortable criticizing his father, but he still feels that this approach is wrong.
At night, the father and son filled the basket with firewood and walked home. There was no mineral resources, so the firewood had to be arranged in time, otherwise the day's work would be completely in vain.
On the way back, Li Wu decided to persuade his father, so he said: "Dad, let's continue going back to the foot of the mountain starting tomorrow!"
Mr. Li was already in a bad mood after a day with no results. When his son said this, he immediately felt like he was being blamed. He immediately said angrily: "Go, go, what are you going to do! This is only the first day, no one is here."
Isn't it normal to dig? If you don't even have this patience, how can you do big things in the future! If you want to go, just go by yourself!"
Listening to the angry scolding, Li Wu shook the bamboo basket on his back and said angrily: "Then I will go to the foot of the mountain by myself tomorrow."
"You..."
Boss Li wanted to raise his hand to give Li Wu a slap, but when he saw Li Wu's stubborn expression, his heart suddenly softened.
He sighed dejectedly: "That's all, dad will go check it out tomorrow. If it's really not there, then I'll go back there."
"Hmm."
