Abandoned by the best children? I just take out the space

Chen Changli originally thought that this river was nothing special except that it carried sins. But when the sound of flowing water rang in his ears and became more and more familiar, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

After concentrating his mind and listening for a while, Chen Changli put his doubts aside and thought about the river below.

He suspected that the strange sound he sensed in the flowing water came from the river.

"Is there something wrong in there?" Wan Shufang couldn't tell what was wrong with the sound of the water, but seeing that Chen Changli looked quite concerned, she knew that something at the bottom of the river had caught Chen Changli's attention.

"I'm not sure either, so I want to go and take a look. Shufang, you wait for me on the shore. I'll be back in a quarter of an hour at most." Chen Changli couldn't tell what he felt in his heart, he just gave her time to wait.

Wan Shufang nodded immediately after hearing what he said and said, "Then go and have a look."

The top of the cliff is very wide, and the river flows in the middle, with steep slopes on both sides. At first glance, one can tell that this river was deliberately dug by someone.

Wan Shufang looked around for a while and made sure that no one was hiding in the dark and watching her, so she felt that it was safe here and immediately asked Chen Changli to go into the water as soon as possible to check the situation.

Chen Changli did not delay and jumped into the river like a nimble tiger or leopard.

However, he found that the so-called river bottom was deeper than he thought, and he had to swim hard downstream.

After swimming for a few breaths, he noticed an iron mechanism operating not far away.

These mechanisms are densely stacked together, like an ingenious canal, drawing water from deep underground layer by layer, and then transporting it upward through slightly curved buckets.

It turns out there is something discordant in the sound of flowing water. Is it the operation of these mechanisms?

When Chen Changli's thoughts turned to this, his doubts were instantly resolved.

At this moment, he also thought of what Wan Shufang said. To build such an ingenious water conservancy project within a few years would not only require a large amount of manpower, but also huge financial resources.

Chang Xuewei was a displaced orphan before. Even if she had money, it would be impossible for her to build such a water conservancy project.

It seems that there are indeed other people in the Xin Tian Hui who are using Chang Xuewei to achieve their own goals.

When his mind turned to this, Chen Changli's mood became more complicated, but he quickly adjusted himself and swam towards the mechanism.

But he didn't expect that before he could swim in, a whirlpool hit him, and then the tremendous pressure sucked him into the whirlpool, making him dizzy and his stomach churning, and he seemed about to faint.

However, Chen Changli did not dare to faint, because the mechanism was made of iron. If he fainted and was unable to struggle, he might hit the mechanism and end up being dismembered.

I can't die here, I have to live.

Chen Changli shouted this in his heart, trying his best to resist the pressure of the whirlpool. However, as the mechanism was operating, whirlpools appeared one after another, instantly making his situation extremely dangerous.

Chen Changli had never encountered such a situation before, and he held his breath all the way and had not breathed fresh air for a long time.

The longer he delays here, the more intense the feeling of suffocation will become, and he will die of suffocation before he is killed by the power of the whirlpool.

Thinking of two bad ways to die, Chen Changli became furious, but unexpectedly he was sucked into another whirlpool.

The whirlpool was huge and the water flowed very fast inside. Chen Changli almost couldn't hold his breath and drowned in it.

However, the vortex circled around the mechanism and suddenly went deep into the ground. It then collided with a water column and knocked Chen Changli, who was almost drowned, away.

With a bang, Chen Changli felt that his remaining bones were about to break. He gasped in pain, and then belatedly realized that he could breathe fresh air.

His pupils widened in surprise, only to see a mountain wall soaked by water.

"Where is this? Am I dead?"

Chen Changli looked at the mountain wall that came into view, his mind a little confused.

He couldn't help but think that he might be dead, then he felt the fresh air spreading, after all, he was in the water before, and the feeling of suffocation was too strong for him to ignore.

"But why is this underworld different from what I thought?"

Chen Changli was in a daze. He rolled his eyes and looked around, trying to take in this unique underworld.

But suddenly he felt a strong stinging pain in his body. This obvious pain brought him back to his senses, and he instantly realized that he was still alive and not dead.

He was surprised and happy, and suddenly stood up from the wet ground.

Trying hard to ignore the pain, Chen Changli began to look around carefully.

This was an underground river in a rather dangerous terrain. He was lucky. Although he was thrown here by the whirlpool, he did not fall directly into the underground river, but fell into the silt formed by accumulated sand.

“Those who survive a great disaster will be blessed in the future.” Chen Changli felt fortunate when he saw that he was only two steps away from the fast-flowing underground river.

He thought he was dead this time, but he didn't expect to have such luck.

However, when he saw this underground river, he knew why there was such a river above.

It is nothing more than that there is underground water connecting various places in these endless mountains, and there are capable people in the Xintianhui.

He discovered the underground water and then created a mechanism to transport the water up there. He then artificially created a river and used this river to transport opium.

"Such a clever idea. The people in the New Heaven Society are not all as ambitious as I thought. There are talents among them. It's a pity that they were all taken advantage of. Otherwise, this clever idea would be used for big things, and how could it be tainted with the sin of transporting opium?"

All kinds of thoughts were running through Chen Changli's mind. As some ideas emerged in his mind, he guessed most of what had happened.

Covering his chest and calming down, Chen Changli was ready to leave, but he didn't expect the Phoenix Gu to become agitated at this time.

It felt like something was attracting it, making it eager to get out of its chest.

"What do you want to do?" Chen Changli covered his chest and frowned slightly.

The Phoenix Gu lying on his heart no longer looked like a bug, but instead turned into a golden butterfly the size of a fingernail.

The beautiful golden butterfly seemed to understand Chen Changli's words. It gently fluttered its wings, and some golden powder visible to the naked eye fell on its heart.

The bright red blood stained the golden powder and quickly transported it to various parts of the human body.

After a while, Chen Changli felt his body become a little stiff, as if the Phoenix Gu had injected its toxins into his body again.

"Phoenix Gu, what do you want to do? We are in a symbiotic relationship now. If I die, you will not be able to live either."
