Jiang Xuyuan couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

Now, those who can insist on standing on his side are all his brothers.

"No one actually meant to doubt you, it's just that the situation is special now and we can't find a clue for the time being, so we are too anxious."

"My words may have been a little too harsh, but I believe they will come to you to apologize in the future. Jiang Xuyuan, please don't bother with them. Some things can't be explained clearly now."

Hearing Zhong Li's words, Jiang Xuyuan smiled and nodded, then said, "Do I need you to tell me? Of course I understand."

"Besides, we can't really blame them for this. Think about it, we are hiding something. And this is not a small matter, which means that there is a high possibility that we will do something behind their backs."

“It’s normal for people to doubt.”

Jiang Xuyuan spoke calmly, as if he really didn't take the matter to heart. However, when he remembered what Zhong Li had just said, he couldn't help but speak.

"You just kept emphasizing that I would know their exact location. How do you know this? Are you following me?"

Zhong Li laughed and shook his head.

"It would be great if I really had the ability to follow you without anyone noticing. To be honest, I don't think you are too anxious right now. Instead, you are calmly providing us with the corresponding plan and want to tell us the corresponding situation."

"You just don't want to explain directly in order to prevent others from knowing these things and to prevent others from continuing to doubt you."

Zhong Li was walking around with his legs crossed, but he already had a plan in mind.

"There's no one else here now, just the two of us. Can you tell me exactly what's going on?"

Hearing this, Jiang Xuyuan couldn't help but smiled and nodded, then said.

"I knew you wouldn't come here for no reason."

"You're chasing me now just to find out the truth about this matter? To be honest, I want to tell you too."

"But I can only tell you the approximate location, and once you go there, you will most likely be discovered."

Having said this, he touched his nose.

"I suspect they are in the back mountain. There is a cold bluestone pond in the back mountain. That place is very strange. Now the water resources in various places have been covered by radiation, and some degree of disease has occurred."

"It is very difficult to find a clean water source, but the water in that cold pond is very clean, and you can see the bottom clearly. So when we went there, we were still wondering if we could transport the water back to our base for use."

"But Sun Hao rejected it at that time. Sun Hao and Hongyi felt that the water source in this place was too dangerous. It was hard to tell when something would come out, after all, the source was in the mountains."

"But didn't Songyue and his team encounter some difficulties in their logistical support work a few days ago? It is said that it was due to a water shortage. I think these people must have gone to the mountains to find water resources."

When Zhong Li heard this, he was slightly stunned.

If it's really just about finding the corresponding water resources, then there's no need to be so secretive and hide it, right?

Wouldn't it be better to just take people to look for it openly?

"So what are they hiding?"

Hearing this, Jiang Xuyuan couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"They are hiding the same thing as you, they are probably hiding me."

"If these people tell others about the water resources in the mountains, someone will definitely ask why they are only speaking up now."

"And you've been to the back mountain more than once or twice, and you didn't find anything then. Now that this pool of water has suddenly appeared, there's definitely something wrong."

Zhong Li was confused, but when he heard what the other party said, he had to nod. In that case, he could only take one step at a time.

"Don't worry, I know about this matter, so just do as they say. Let's stay put for now and wait for the three to return."

Before he finished speaking, three figures were seen in the distance.

Sure enough, Sun Hao, Hongyi and others walked back slowly, looking very happy.

"If we tell everyone about the discovery of the lake in the back mountain, everyone will be very excited. We can also be sure that there will be no problems with the lake water."

"But how did this small rock pool come into being? We have never seen it before when we came to the back mountain. And the water inside is so clear, but we can't find the source. It's strange to think about it."

Listening to the conversation between several people, Zhong Li's heart moved. He didn't expect that this kid's guess was so correct.

"You are really smart."

Zhong Li turned around and looked at Jiang Xuyuan, and couldn't help but give him a thumbs up.

"This is not called cleverness, but guesswork. After all, I am the only one who knows about this matter. If you also know about it, then you can also guess that they should be in the back mountain."

As they were talking, the three people seemed to have seen Zhong Li as well.

"What are you doing here?"

Zhong Li rolled his eyes and couldn't help but pat Sun Hao on the shoulder.

"Brother, what do you think we are doing here? Jiang Xuyuan was almost kicked out of the base because you left so suddenly without saying hello to the people in the base."

When the three heard this, they took a deep breath.

"Ah? Why is this happening?"

"Let's talk as we walk."

In order to prevent the situation from escalating further, Zhong Li had to send these people back first.

Along the way, several people were walking and chatting. After knowing the truth, they seemed a little embarrassed and turned around and kept apologizing.

"I'm really sorry, Jiang Xuyuan, we didn't expect it to turn out like this."

"Yes, we were afraid that if we revealed our whereabouts, they would become suspicious. So we had no choice but to move forward secretly. Who knew that this time we would take too long and end up handing you over."

Jiang Xuyuan nodded indifferently, "I understand, it's okay."

"Besides, Zhong Li has already caught up with us, right? We haven't had a private conversation like this for a long time. This can be considered as finding some fun in the midst of hardship."

Jiang Xun and others were just about to go out to look for them, but now they were a little surprised to see them return.

He opened his mouth but said nothing for a long time.

"What are you still standing there for? Jiang Xun, apologize to them right away."

"Jiang Xuyuan didn't do anything. The guys went to the back hills to look for water. Because everyone was fast asleep during the night shift, they didn't inform anyone. Now..."

Zhong Li looked at Jiang Xun and said, "You have already vented your anger, and the truth has come out. Isn't it time to say sorry to them? What the hell is going on?"

There was a strange flash in Jiang Xun's eyes, "Are you three crazy? Why did you say hello in advance?"
