"Have the test results come out?"
"Come out, the energy stone concentration is as high as 60.00%."
The subordinate's voice came from the optical brain, and Yucheng frowned impatiently. He never expected that the concentration of the ore veins being snatched by Yujie would be so high. When he thought that Yujie would use this incident to occupy all the mines in front of everyone In the limelight, he was extremely depressed.
"Sir, they will go to the mine vein tomorrow, what else do we need to do?" the subordinate continued to ask.
"It's not necessary." Yu Cheng closed his eyes, it was already at this time, and it was too late to do anything.
After hanging up the call, Yu Cheng fell down on the bed angrily. He could completely imagine how proud Yu Jie was now, and this opportunity to be proud originally belonged to him.
But because of a mistake, he missed such a good opportunity!
If he had known earlier, he shouldn't have had so many scruples!
Even if he lost his fortune, he should take back that mine lode!
Thinking of this, the anger and annoyance in Yucheng's heart became more and more intense, but at this moment, a slight movement suddenly sounded outside the door. He originally thought it was someone knocking on the door, and asked sharply, "Who is it?"
It was very late now, the lights in the dormitory were turned off, and even the dormitory supervisor had already gone to rest. No one should come over at this time, but the noise outside the door continued to ring.
Yucheng was a little impatient, frowned and was about to go over to have a look, but before he had taken two steps, he suddenly felt something soft under his feet, and then, a voice sounded: "Squeak——"
This voice was very familiar to Yucheng. He widened his eyes and wanted to turn on the light to see what was under his feet, but he touched the switch and realized that the light had already been turned off and the electric switch was turned off.
Yu Cheng was about to withdraw his hand, but in the next second, something soft and hairy suddenly crawled across the back of his hand, and when the four cold claws climbed onto the back of his hand, Yu Cheng's face turned pale immediately.
When he was young, he went to a friend's house to play, and the friend's house raised a hamster. Yucheng hated this furry animal since he was a child, and he beat the hamster many times through the cage.
Yucheng found it very interesting to see it running around in a hurry. When he was about to throw it out, he didn't expect that just as his hand grabbed the hamster's tail, the hamster suddenly rushed out from the corner and climbed onto his hamster. On the back of his hand, he bit off a piece of flesh alive from his hand.
Although Yu Cheng, who was in pain and lost his mind, directly threw the hamster to death, it still left a great psychological shadow on him, so when that familiar touch reappeared, he reacted almost immediately Yes, it must be a mouse!
But before he could remove his hand from the switch, a pain came from his fingertips.
"what--"
Yu Cheng clutched his bitten finger, and ruthlessly shook off the mouse. Just as he was about to open the door and leave, he suddenly found that a large group of mice surrounded the door unconsciously.
Those mice kept crawling towards him, slowly climbed up his feet, and crawled all over his body.
The sky was very dark, Yucheng couldn't see anything, he could only roar and slap desperately, trying to drive those disgusting things away from him.
But it didn't help, the mice seemed to find him, crawling on him over and over again, no matter how much they crawled and rolled on the ground, it was useless, those disgusting feelings still wrapped around his whole body.
Just when Yucheng felt that he was going crazy and was about to be tormented by these things and collapsed, a dazzling light suddenly lit up in front of him, and then, the voice of the housekeeper came: "What are you doing?!"
Yucheng seemed to have found a life-saving straw, and ran towards the door frantically: "Teacher! Help me! These mice! This place is full of mice!"
He pointed at his body, wanting the housekeeper to help drive away the rats on his body, but the housekeeper gave him a cold look: "Rats? Where are they?"
Yu Cheng was taken aback, he was about to say that it was all on him, but when he lowered his head, he realized that there was nothing clean on his body except the dust that had just been rubbed off on the ground.
It was as if the mice that had crawled all over his body just now didn't exist at all.
Dorm supervisor: "Staying awake in the middle of the night and making such a big noise is already a serious violation of school rules. I'll ask your teacher to come over tomorrow."
The dormitory manager left after finishing speaking, and behind him, there were students from other dormitories who were woken up by the noise and came to watch. Those students saw that Yucheng was fine, but kept rolling around on the ground like crazy , couldn't help laughing.
"Is he crazy?"
"My God, did you see how he crawled on the ground just now?"
"Isn't he very noble on weekdays, but now he looks like a ghost."
"Shut up, he's looking at you."
……
Yucheng's gloomy sight came, and the students quickly shut their mouths and snickered and returned to their dormitories. Although they dare not do anything in front of Yucheng's identity, it doesn't mean they can't do anything behind their backs. ah.
Just after returning to the dormitory, many people posted the video they just took to the star network.
Soon, the news of #皇室三皇子半夜发疯# quickly reached the top of the hot search list.
As soon as Xi Qing arrived in the classroom the next day, he heard everyone talking about it. Fang Xuan even put the video in front of him in a gossip, asking him to hurry up and watch it together.
In the picture, Yu Cheng is lying on the ground, rolling continuously, not only that, but he is also screaming sharply, while slapping his hands and feet indiscriminately, his whole body is in a mess.
"Hahahaha, I laughed so hard, I didn't expect him to have this day!" Fang Xuan was so excited.
Yucheng has always relied on his own status to do his best, and some people in the school have long been unhappy with him. This time, seeing him making a fool of himself, not only did no one speak up for him, but all of them began to repost and like it, and the video became more and more popular because of this. The wider the area, the higher the heat.
Fang Xuan laughed until tears came out: "Tell me, is he crazy? He also said that there are mice on his body. Where are there mice? I can't see a single hair."
"Furthermore, someone has already seen that Yucheng left the school and sneaked away early in the morning, probably because he was afraid of being discovered."
Ji Xingyuan was very enthusiastic and sent the video to Liao Renbai who was training: "This is, the wicked will be tortured by the wicked."
Although Xi Qing didn't say anything, he quietly posted on Xingwang and liked the video.
Huo Yan didn't understand what was going on at first, until he saw that after class was over, Xi Qing didn't go back to the dormitory immediately, but walked to a dark corner and put down a bag of corn kernels.
Xi Qing didn't leave immediately, and whistled briefly to the other side, and then several small figures ran out quickly in a small group, and after "cheeping" twice at Xi Qing, they quickly Pushing the bag and ran away.
Xi Qing waved at their leaving figures, and couldn't help but smile when he thought of Yucheng's distressed appearance in the video today.
It was only then that Huo Yan realized what was going on, seeing Xi Qing's side face with a sneaky smile, his mood improved a lot unconsciously.
-
After returning to the dormitory, Xi Qing went to take a shower, while Huo Yan received a message from Shen Jian.
"The royal people have arrived and the excavation is expected to start tomorrow."
"Okay." Huo Yan thought for a while and replied, "Are you ready?"
"Ready."
On the other side, Shen Jian nodded, all the media had been found, and they were just waiting for the mine to start construction.
Tomorrow the weather will be fine, the machine will drill through the mountain, and the moment the purple water comes into contact with the air, a raging fire will ignite quickly, and when the accident happens, it will spread to everyone at the speed of light In my head, even if the royal family wanted to suppress it, they couldn't suppress it.
As soon as Xi Qing got dressed and came out, the person in charge of the first orchard called.
Last time, Xi Qing rejected his idea of selling corn again, and only asked him to pay attention to the remarks about corn on the Star Network, and to inform him when the public's voices about wanting to taste corn again became louder and louder.
This time, the person in charge called just for this matter: "According to our observation, the enthusiasm of the masses has risen to a certain level, and now should be the best time to launch corn seeds."
"Okay." Xi Qing nodded, "Then we can start preparing."
Xi Qing asked the person in charge to prepare a legally binding contract as soon as possible, and he will go to Capital Star the day after tomorrow, and then he can sell it.
"Okay." The person in charge hung up the phone and went to get ready.
But things were not as simple as they imagined, and soon, problems appeared.
Xi Qing originally planned to go to Starnet to check the remarks about corn, to see if it was what the person in charge said, but when he refreshed, he suddenly saw a Weibo:
Boob: Oh my god, the eighth planet is now selling corn again, and I've already bought ten!
In less than 5 minutes since this blog post was posted, there are already hundreds of comments, all asking whether it is true or not that the blogger has corn for sale.
The blogger quickly responded: It is true, but it is much more expensive. The one I bought was [-] before, but now it costs [-]!And it's not that tasty anymore.
But even with such a horrible price, there are still many people who are not short of money but want to eat corn too much. They contacted the people from the eighth planet for help, and they actually bought it.
Seeing that there were more and more topics confirming that the eighth planet could be purchased, Xi Qing quickly private messaged this blogger named "Boob".
Xi Qing looked at what he said, "It's not so delicious", and thought it meant that the taste of the corn was not so delicious. If this is the case, it means that the corn he bought was not grown by himself.
Xi Qing is very confident in the things he grows. All corn should be particularly delicious, and it is impossible for there to be a situation where the taste is not right.
But if it wasn't his corn, who was it?Except for him, there was no such thing as corn before the interstellar. Could it be that someone used corn kernels as seeds to grow new corn?
But this idea was snuffed out by Xi Qing as soon as it came up. All the corn they sold was cooked and could not be planted as seeds. Moreover, the people here did not have systematic help, and the growth period of the corn was impossible. Only a few short days.
So, what's going on here?
Soon, the blogger sent the photo over. The moment he saw the photo, Xi Qing understood what he meant by "the taste is not good". It was not because the taste of the corn itself was bad, but because of the cooking method No, it caused a taste problem when eating.
When Xi Qing taught the people in the No. [-] Orchard how to steam and roast corn, he specifically mentioned a few points for attention. He signed a confidentiality agreement with the No. [-] Orchard. Those methods should not be passed on, which caused others to want to It is not good to imitate his handling of corn.
In the photos sent by Bubu, the corn was either steamed or roasted, but either the steamed ones were too dry, or the roasted ones were too mushy.
After staring at the photos for a long time, Xi Qing was finally able to confirm that these corns were grown by him.
Here, it is impossible for someone to plant such uniformly sized, full-grained corn, so there is only one possibility of this situation——
Someone bought corn from the first orchard and sold it again at an expensive price.
"It is definitely not ordinary people who can do this."
When they sell corn, they have established a particularly strict real-name system, and there are also restrictions on purchases. Even if the whole family buys them and stores them together, there will not be so many quantities. Xi Qing took a rough look Look, there are already dozens of people who claim to have bought corn, and the quantity they bought is not low.
To be able to come up with such a large amount, it is only possible that someone is storing it maliciously, but who is it...
Xi Qing was about to contact the person in charge, but the optical brain rang beforehand, and the caller happened to be the person in charge.
"Mr. Xi, have you read the content on Starnet? Some people claim that they..."
"I saw it." Xi Qing interrupted him, "And I chatted with that person in private, he did buy corn, I saw the photo."
"Why, how could this be?" The person in charge was stunned.
Xi Qing didn't panic, but pondered for two seconds: "Well, first call and ask the people in each branch to see if there is anything strange, and then tell me."
"Ok."
After hanging up the call, Xi Qing walked around the room a little restlessly.
The biggest headache for him now is not that the price the other party sells has damaged his interests, but that the desire for people who want to eat corn will definitely be relieved, and in this way, it will destroy Then the promotion process of the seed.
After all, people are lazy, why should they grow their own corn when they can eat ready-made corn?
So after buying the corn kernels sold together with the apples, they are likely to discard them or give them away directly. Although there are legal restrictions, this is not the effect Xi Qing wants at all.
Moreover, at such an expensive price, it may also damage the reputation of No. [-] Orchard, because people definitely don’t know that it is not No. [-] Orchard that sells corn. If it spreads widely, some people will think that it will be No. [-] Orchard’s deliberate hunger marketing. , Fortunately, the price was driven up maliciously afterwards.
Seeing Xi Qing's anxious expression, Huo Yan turned on his optical brain and sent a message.
Soon, the optical brain rang, and Xi Qing quickly connected, but to his surprise, it was Shen Jian who opened the phone.
"Mr. Xi, after the Marshal saw the news about corn on the Internet, let me ask you, is there something wrong?"
Hearing what he said, Xi Qing was taken aback, shouldn't the marshal be very busy?Why did you find out about this so quickly?
But now is not the time to care about this, Xi Qing didn't hesitate, and directly told Shen Jian about the problems he encountered.
Shen Jian: "Don't worry, we can find out quickly."
Xi Qing originally thought that Shen Jian's quick words were to comfort him, but he didn't expect it to be really fast. Less than 10 minutes later, Shen Jian replied: "My investigation here found that the sales target on the eighth planet There seems to be a problem."
The eighth planet?
Xi Qing frowned, and immediately called the person in charge, "Can I find out the specific sales situation at Planet Eight?"
"can."
Soon, the results came out.
Due to the unique economic environment of the eighth planet, the selling speed of corn is much slower than other places, but this is reasonable, after all, the people there do not have much purchasing power.
So there was news that the eighth planet's corn was unsalable on the Internet, causing many people to go there directly to buy it.
But at five o'clock in the afternoon, a town jointly bought all the remaining corn in the first orchard branch in the name of the whole town, which made it impossible for other people who had already traveled to the eighth planet to buy the corn in stock here. It's back.
For such a large transaction, the clerk was not ambiguous, and only sold the corresponding amount of corn to them after confirming that it was purchased jointly by the entire town.
After the person in charge finished speaking, Xi Qing nodded. Now it seems that the problem is likely to be there.
In fact, the corn started to be sold early in the morning. Why did I wait until five o'clock in the afternoon, when the fruit shop was about to close?
After such a long time, it seems like I am preparing for something...
"System, can you find out who did it?"
The system checked for a long time, [No, the location is too far apart, I can only check it out unless you go to the eighth planet. 】
"Okay, I understand."
Xi Qing immediately sent a message to the person in charge, agreeing to go to the eighth planet together tomorrow morning.
The eighth planet is far away from the other main planets, and because of this, the star network of the eighth planet and other places is not even at the same connection point, even if it is the equipment of the military department, it will be a lot of trouble to find it .
It is precisely because of this that Huo Yan did not intend to stop Xi Qing, but sent a message to Jiang Shun after Xi Qing fell asleep, asking him to go to the eighth planet tomorrow as well.
Jiang Shun replied quickly: "Yes, but Marshal, we need to bring Heidi."
Heidi is a technological genius in the Eighth Army. With insufficient equipment, he will definitely encounter many problems. It is estimated that only Heidi can solve them by then.
Huo Yan understood Jiang Shun's implication, and in this way, the fact that he ordered Heidi to sell Xi Qing's mecha would be exposed.
Huo Yan pondered for a while: "Yes, tomorrow as soon as possible."
-
The capital star has to go further to the eighth planet. In order not to keep Huo Yan waiting for a long time, Jiang Shun and Heidi set off before dawn the next day.
It took at least six hours for the starship to arrive. Heidi originally planned to have a good sleep to recharge her spirits, but she was woken up by Jiang Shun's movement in the middle of her sleep.
"What's wrong?" She opened her eyes and saw Jiang Shun's serious eyes.
"The purple water is already burning."
In just one sentence, Heidi understood what he meant, and immediately lost all drowsiness: "The people in the royal family have already started mining?!"
"correct."
Energy stone is such a precious resource, even mining it is a big deal, so whenever there is such a mine, before the start of work, they will find someone to calculate the auspicious time. After the royal family finds someone to calculate, the best mining time is in the morning. It was nine o'clock, so early in the morning, I led a mighty crowd into the location of the mine vein.
The emperor also specially held an extraordinarily grand celebration ceremony. As the number one hero who took pictures of this mine vein, Yu Jie even delivered a speech with high fighting spirit.
A group of people waited until nine o'clock under the scorching sun, and immediately after the emperor gave an order, the engineering team officially started work.
Although it is officially started, it is obvious that the ground will not be broken at this time. Instead, one person will operate the machine to dig out a small area on the top of the mountain, and then take a small energy stone from it, and then give it to the emperor, who will take it. After taking pictures, today's groundbreaking project is completed.
The engineer who drives the machine today is the most capable engineer. He once created a record of successfully peeling it out of the rock formation without destroying a single bit of energy stone. This is also because of his outstanding ability. When the rock formation was removed, the engineers noticed something was wrong.
There is something wrong with the movement under the rock formation. It doesn't look like the energy stone he has faced many times, but more like purple water!
The engineer was terrified by his guess, so he didn't delay, but immediately turned back to inform other people down the mountain.
Although the ignition point of Zishui is low, the excavated area of the rock formation is too small, and there is still a gap for a period of time to rely on today's high temperature to spontaneously ignite, relying on this gap will definitely be able to escape successfully.
But no one heeded his warning.
The emperor even blamed unexpectedly, angry that the engineer ruined such a good day today.
But the emperor hadn't finished speaking, and even before the words of accusation came out, someone saw that a few white smoke suddenly rose from the top of the mountain that was illuminated by the scorching sun.
Immediately afterwards, the smoke began to grow bigger and bigger, and in less than three seconds, a blazing flame appeared in everyone's sight.
"run!!"
But at this time, it was almost too late, and the people who fled everywhere couldn't care about the other people around them, so they quickly found a safe place to hide.
The fire was getting bigger and bigger, and even burned all the way to the mountainside with the spreading purple water, but at this moment, the army arrived quickly and extinguished the fire at a speed that no one expected.
Because of the promptness of the army, most people were not harmed, except for two people.
Yu Jie, who was crushed by a tree and whose right leg might be broken, and the emperor, whose hair was burned off by the flying sparks.
"Come out, the energy stone concentration is as high as 60.00%."
The subordinate's voice came from the optical brain, and Yucheng frowned impatiently. He never expected that the concentration of the ore veins being snatched by Yujie would be so high. When he thought that Yujie would use this incident to occupy all the mines in front of everyone In the limelight, he was extremely depressed.
"Sir, they will go to the mine vein tomorrow, what else do we need to do?" the subordinate continued to ask.
"It's not necessary." Yu Cheng closed his eyes, it was already at this time, and it was too late to do anything.
After hanging up the call, Yu Cheng fell down on the bed angrily. He could completely imagine how proud Yu Jie was now, and this opportunity to be proud originally belonged to him.
But because of a mistake, he missed such a good opportunity!
If he had known earlier, he shouldn't have had so many scruples!
Even if he lost his fortune, he should take back that mine lode!
Thinking of this, the anger and annoyance in Yucheng's heart became more and more intense, but at this moment, a slight movement suddenly sounded outside the door. He originally thought it was someone knocking on the door, and asked sharply, "Who is it?"
It was very late now, the lights in the dormitory were turned off, and even the dormitory supervisor had already gone to rest. No one should come over at this time, but the noise outside the door continued to ring.
Yucheng was a little impatient, frowned and was about to go over to have a look, but before he had taken two steps, he suddenly felt something soft under his feet, and then, a voice sounded: "Squeak——"

But before he could remove his hand from the switch, a pain came from his fingertips.

Yucheng seemed to have found a life-saving straw, and ran towards the door frantically: "Teacher! Help me! These mice! This place is full of mice!"
He pointed at his body, wanting the housekeeper to help drive away the rats on his body, but the housekeeper gave him a cold look: "Rats? Where are they?"
Yu Cheng was taken aback, he was about to say that it was all on him, but when he lowered his head, he realized that there was nothing clean on his body except the dust that had just been rubbed off on the ground.

"Is he crazy?"
"My God, did you see how he crawled on the ground just now?"
"Isn't he very noble on weekdays, but now he looks like a ghost."
"Shut up, he's looking at you."
……
Yucheng's gloomy sight came, and the students quickly shut their mouths and snickered and returned to their dormitories. Although they dare not do anything in front of Yucheng's identity, it doesn't mean they can't do anything behind their backs. ah.
Just after returning to the dormitory, many people posted the video they just took to the star network.
Soon, the news of #皇室三皇子半夜发疯# quickly reached the top of the hot search list.

It was only then that Huo Yan realized what was going on, seeing Xi Qing's side face with a sneaky smile, his mood improved a lot unconsciously.

After returning to the dormitory, Xi Qing went to take a shower, while Huo Yan received a message from Shen Jian.
"The royal people have arrived and the excavation is expected to start tomorrow."
"Okay." Huo Yan thought for a while and replied, "Are you ready?"
"Ready."

"Okay." The person in charge hung up the phone and went to get ready.
But things were not as simple as they imagined, and soon, problems appeared.
Xi Qing originally planned to go to Starnet to check the remarks about corn, to see if it was what the person in charge said, but when he refreshed, he suddenly saw a Weibo:
Boob: Oh my god, the eighth planet is now selling corn again, and I've already bought ten!
In less than 5 minutes since this blog post was posted, there are already hundreds of comments, all asking whether it is true or not that the blogger has corn for sale.

"Why, how could this be?" The person in charge was stunned.
Xi Qing didn't panic, but pondered for two seconds: "Well, first call and ask the people in each branch to see if there is anything strange, and then tell me."
"Ok."
After hanging up the call, Xi Qing walked around the room a little restlessly.
The biggest headache for him now is not that the price the other party sells has damaged his interests, but that the desire for people who want to eat corn will definitely be relieved, and in this way, it will destroy Then the promotion process of the seed.
After all, people are lazy, why should they grow their own corn when they can eat ready-made corn?
So after buying the corn kernels sold together with the apples, they are likely to discard them or give them away directly. Although there are legal restrictions, this is not the effect Xi Qing wants at all.
Moreover, at such an expensive price, it may also damage the reputation of No. [-] Orchard, because people definitely don’t know that it is not No. [-] Orchard that sells corn. If it spreads widely, some people will think that it will be No. [-] Orchard’s deliberate hunger marketing. , Fortunately, the price was driven up maliciously afterwards.
Seeing Xi Qing's anxious expression, Huo Yan turned on his optical brain and sent a message.
Soon, the optical brain rang, and Xi Qing quickly connected, but to his surprise, it was Shen Jian who opened the phone.
"Mr. Xi, after the Marshal saw the news about corn on the Internet, let me ask you, is there something wrong?"
Hearing what he said, Xi Qing was taken aback, shouldn't the marshal be very busy?Why did you find out about this so quickly?
But now is not the time to care about this, Xi Qing didn't hesitate, and directly told Shen Jian about the problems he encountered.
Shen Jian: "Don't worry, we can find out quickly."
Xi Qing originally thought that Shen Jian's quick words were to comfort him, but he didn't expect it to be really fast. Less than 10 minutes later, Shen Jian replied: "My investigation here found that the sales target on the eighth planet There seems to be a problem."
The eighth planet?
Xi Qing frowned, and immediately called the person in charge, "Can I find out the specific sales situation at Planet Eight?"
"can."
Soon, the results came out.
Due to the unique economic environment of the eighth planet, the selling speed of corn is much slower than other places, but this is reasonable, after all, the people there do not have much purchasing power.
So there was news that the eighth planet's corn was unsalable on the Internet, causing many people to go there directly to buy it.
But at five o'clock in the afternoon, a town jointly bought all the remaining corn in the first orchard branch in the name of the whole town, which made it impossible for other people who had already traveled to the eighth planet to buy the corn in stock here. It's back.
For such a large transaction, the clerk was not ambiguous, and only sold the corresponding amount of corn to them after confirming that it was purchased jointly by the entire town.
After the person in charge finished speaking, Xi Qing nodded. Now it seems that the problem is likely to be there.
In fact, the corn started to be sold early in the morning. Why did I wait until five o'clock in the afternoon, when the fruit shop was about to close?
After such a long time, it seems like I am preparing for something...
"System, can you find out who did it?"
The system checked for a long time, [No, the location is too far apart, I can only check it out unless you go to the eighth planet. 】
"Okay, I understand."
Xi Qing immediately sent a message to the person in charge, agreeing to go to the eighth planet together tomorrow morning.
The eighth planet is far away from the other main planets, and because of this, the star network of the eighth planet and other places is not even at the same connection point, even if it is the equipment of the military department, it will be a lot of trouble to find it .
It is precisely because of this that Huo Yan did not intend to stop Xi Qing, but sent a message to Jiang Shun after Xi Qing fell asleep, asking him to go to the eighth planet tomorrow as well.
Jiang Shun replied quickly: "Yes, but Marshal, we need to bring Heidi."
Heidi is a technological genius in the Eighth Army. With insufficient equipment, he will definitely encounter many problems. It is estimated that only Heidi can solve them by then.
Huo Yan understood Jiang Shun's implication, and in this way, the fact that he ordered Heidi to sell Xi Qing's mecha would be exposed.
Huo Yan pondered for a while: "Yes, tomorrow as soon as possible."
-
The capital star has to go further to the eighth planet. In order not to keep Huo Yan waiting for a long time, Jiang Shun and Heidi set off before dawn the next day.
It took at least six hours for the starship to arrive. Heidi originally planned to have a good sleep to recharge her spirits, but she was woken up by Jiang Shun's movement in the middle of her sleep.
"What's wrong?" She opened her eyes and saw Jiang Shun's serious eyes.
"The purple water is already burning."
In just one sentence, Heidi understood what he meant, and immediately lost all drowsiness: "The people in the royal family have already started mining?!"
"correct."
Energy stone is such a precious resource, even mining it is a big deal, so whenever there is such a mine, before the start of work, they will find someone to calculate the auspicious time. After the royal family finds someone to calculate, the best mining time is in the morning. It was nine o'clock, so early in the morning, I led a mighty crowd into the location of the mine vein.
The emperor also specially held an extraordinarily grand celebration ceremony. As the number one hero who took pictures of this mine vein, Yu Jie even delivered a speech with high fighting spirit.
A group of people waited until nine o'clock under the scorching sun, and immediately after the emperor gave an order, the engineering team officially started work.
Although it is officially started, it is obvious that the ground will not be broken at this time. Instead, one person will operate the machine to dig out a small area on the top of the mountain, and then take a small energy stone from it, and then give it to the emperor, who will take it. After taking pictures, today's groundbreaking project is completed.
The engineer who drives the machine today is the most capable engineer. He once created a record of successfully peeling it out of the rock formation without destroying a single bit of energy stone. This is also because of his outstanding ability. When the rock formation was removed, the engineers noticed something was wrong.
There is something wrong with the movement under the rock formation. It doesn't look like the energy stone he has faced many times, but more like purple water!
The engineer was terrified by his guess, so he didn't delay, but immediately turned back to inform other people down the mountain.
Although the ignition point of Zishui is low, the excavated area of the rock formation is too small, and there is still a gap for a period of time to rely on today's high temperature to spontaneously ignite, relying on this gap will definitely be able to escape successfully.
But no one heeded his warning.
The emperor even blamed unexpectedly, angry that the engineer ruined such a good day today.
But the emperor hadn't finished speaking, and even before the words of accusation came out, someone saw that a few white smoke suddenly rose from the top of the mountain that was illuminated by the scorching sun.
Immediately afterwards, the smoke began to grow bigger and bigger, and in less than three seconds, a blazing flame appeared in everyone's sight.
"run!!"
But at this time, it was almost too late, and the people who fled everywhere couldn't care about the other people around them, so they quickly found a safe place to hide.
The fire was getting bigger and bigger, and even burned all the way to the mountainside with the spreading purple water, but at this moment, the army arrived quickly and extinguished the fire at a speed that no one expected.
Because of the promptness of the army, most people were not harmed, except for two people.
Yu Jie, who was crushed by a tree and whose right leg might be broken, and the emperor, whose hair was burned off by the flying sparks.
