Guarding a reservoir? I am guarding the river of time!

Chapter 417: The river water level drops, the calm before the storm

The Silk Grass Waters in front of him were now dry. On the muddy riverbed, there were more than a dozen water cages placed by Su Mu.

"Nannan, don't come over yet."

Su Mu rolled up his trousers, stepped on the mud, walked towards the water cage, waved his hand, and burst out his spiritual power, digging open the mud covering the water cage.

He lifted up the mud-filled water cage and found that there were only a few fish corpses left in it. They all looked like good-looking treasure fish, but they were dead because they were exposed to the air for a long time.

The flesh on their bodies had rotted and emitted a foul smell.

He checked the remaining water cages again, and they were all the same. The treasure fish were caught, but because the waters were dry, they were all dead and even rotten.

The waters here are just a small low-lying pond with an area of ​​about 3,000 square meters, not big.

It is normal to be thirsty. The only abnormal thing is that because this place is close to his home, he often brought his daughter here to collect fish, so he also put in some effort to build this small pond and planted some aquatic plants suitable for fish growth. Every time he comes, he will carry out maintenance and reinforcement, and often put some "fish bait", which is equivalent to making nests.

Therefore, this small pond has been a "fishing spot" that Su Mu has focused on protecting for so many years. In order to prevent drying up, the water source for drainage is the water from the main river.

Why did it dry up?

When I came here last month, it was fine!

At this time, Su Mu thought of something!

He came to the main river next to him, opened his spiritual sense, and carefully surveyed it. He was suddenly shocked.

The water level on the main river dropped by one meter!

Now, the reason for the drying up of the small pond next to it has been found, because the water in the small pond is diverted from the main river next to it. The water level of the main river drops, the water level difference disappears, and there is no source entering, which leads to drying up.

But?

Why did the water level of the main river drop by a full meter?

This is not a tributary, this is the main river. The source of all tributary waters comes from the main river. If the water level of the main river drops by one meter, I don’t know how many tributary waters will dry up.

Su Mu couldn’t figure it out. He didn’t encounter any scorching sun, why did the water level drop by one meter in just one month.

He has been guarding the river for so many years, and the water level has never changed.

Even in the two major floods, after the flood was properly discharged, the water level did drop briefly, but it only lasted for a while and soon returned to normal, which means that the source of this river is very sufficient, and the ability to regulate and resist risks is very strong.

Su Mu returned to the muddy river beach, stroking his chin, pacing back and forth, thinking about the reason.

"Daddy, there seems to be something in the mud."

Nannan pointed to the place where bubbles were coming out of the mud and said.

The next second.

An otter with snow-white hair rushed out of the mud, and it seemed to have something in its mouth.

This otter was the Baiyue otter just now. It dug a hole and got out of the mud.

The Baiyue otter crawled towards Su Mu.

Seeing this, Su Mu squatted down and picked up the thing in the mouth of the Baiyue otter.

This is a broken copper piece. The spirit has been lost. It should be a fragment dropped from some magic weapon.

Although the spirit disappeared, there is still a trace of breath on it.

Carefully feeling this trace of breath, Su Mu frowned. He always felt as if he had seen it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

Suddenly, his pupils shrank sharply.

Flood!

Yes, in the last flood, several powerful enemies came and inexplicably surrounded him, almost putting him in danger.

The same trace of breath on those people is exactly the same as the breath left on this copper piece.

In other words, the drop in the water level of the main river is related to "those people"?

But how did they do it?

To lower the water level of the entire main river by one meter is a very huge project. At least it is impossible to complete it under his nose without anyone noticing. This is completely impossible.

However, the copper piece found by Bai Yue Otter did ring a warning bell for Su Mu.

He has been targeted.

He even suspected that the first flood was not accidental. It was probably aimed at him. It is very likely that the people who caused the two floods were the same group of people!

In the last flood, all those who surrounded him were killed by him.

However, he guessed that those were probably instructed by others and were all minions. The real boss behind them has not come out yet.

He was puzzled. He had been conscientiously completing his work on the river all the time and had never offended anyone. How could he make enemies inexplicably?

Moreover, the enemies he made were not simple.

"Thank you, little guy."

Su Mu smiled at Bai Yue Otter and put away the copper piece. This was a very important clue.

There is no mistake in the content of the first post. Take a look at the 6-9 book forum!

Nannan also waved her hand, took out a spiritual fruit, handed it to Baiyue Otter, and said: "Cute little guy, thank you for helping Daddy, do you want to eat the fruit?"

She didn't know whether Baiyue Otter would eat fruit or not. Anyway, according to the records in ancient books, Baiyue Otter only eats some small fish and shrimps.

However, she couldn't go into the water to catch fish, so she could only reward it with spiritual fruit.

The Baiyue otter took the fruit from Nannan, opened his mouth, and hid it in his cheek. Such a big fruit, hidden in the cheek, can't be seen at all. It seems that the Baiyue otter has an "independent space" in his cheek.

Su Mu looked at the Baiyue otter, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Unexpectedly, this Baiyue otter looks ordinary, but its sense of smell is so sharp that he didn't notice it, but it found the copper piece deep in the mud.

This sense of smell is the best among all the spirit beasts Su Mu has seen.

For a while, he also had a love for talent.

Or, take it home to raise it?

"Cute little guy, do you want to go home with us?"

"Although our house is not big, it's no problem to make room for you to live."

Nannan is so smart that she always notices Daddy's emotional changes. She can sense that Daddy wants to take this little otter home.

"You are so flexible, you must be good at catching fish."

"You can come with us to catch fish in the future."

Nannan said to Baiyue Otter with a smile.

It must be said that Nannan has a natural affinity for these small animals and is very sincere.

The little guys in the family have become more and more harmonious and united because of Nannan's existence.

Baiyue Otter looked at Nannan, struggling in his heart, and was making an important decision
