The anonymous text message was like a poisonous thorn, piercing into Shen Qiqi's originally calm heart.

She turned around suddenly and looked around, but saw only the quiet village shrouded in the night.

"Who? Who is playing tricks?" She murmured softly, and her fingers holding the phone tightened unconsciously.

Lu Qing noticed her strangeness and asked with concern, "What's wrong?" Shen Qiqi shook her head and handed him the phone.

"The good show has just begun..." Lu Qing chewed on these words over and over again, and his expression gradually became solemn.

The next day, the meaning of this text message was confirmed.

Several important resource import channels on which the village depends for survival came to an abrupt halt, like a duck with its neck strangled.

The once busy transportation routes are now empty and lifeless.

The news exploded in the village like a bomb. The villagers went from initial disbelief to panic and then to anger. All kinds of emotions intertwined together, making the originally bustling village instantly shrouded in a haze.

Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing stood in front of the village's resource storage depot, looking at the gradually decreasing supplies in the depot with firm eyes.

The reserve warehouse is the lifeblood of the village and the foundation they are guarding. It must not fall!

A tense atmosphere spread around the storage warehouse. The air seemed to be frozen, so oppressive that it made people breathless.

But there was no sign of retreat in the villagers' eyes; instead, they were burning with fighting spirit.

They gathered behind Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing, like an indestructible wall, guarding their home.

Looking at the shortage of resources, Shen Qiqi's heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible big hand, almost making her unable to breathe.

She tried to stay calm, thinking through various possibilities over and over again, looking for a solution to the problem.

Lu Qing gently put his arm around her shoulders and whispered in her ear, "Don't be afraid, Qiqi, let's work together to find a way and we will definitely be able to overcome this difficulty." His words flowed into Shen Qiqi's cold heart like a warm current, rekindling her hope.

"Qiqi, I have an idea..." Lu Qing whispered his plan in Shen Qiqi's ear.

Shen Qiqi's eyes became brighter and brighter, and a confident smile gradually appeared at the corner of her mouth.

Shen Qiqi didn't have time to look for the mastermind behind the anonymous text message. She took a deep breath, turned around and looked at the villagers behind her, her eyes firm and full of strength: "Everyone, listen to me, the external channels have been blocked, but we can't just sit there and wait for death! There are still many potential resources in the village waiting for us to tap!"

The villagers looked at each other in bewilderment. Lu Qing stood beside her and nodded firmly: "Qiqi is right. We can't rely on others. We must be self-reliant!"

Shen Qiqi continued, "Villagers, we need to launch a resource conservation program. Everyone must do their part to reduce waste. At the same time, we will organize an excavation team to search for potential resources in the village. I believe that as long as we unite as one, we will definitely find a way!"

When the villagers heard this, they nodded in response. Although they still had doubts in their hearts, Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing's determination gave them confidence.

Soon, the villagers began to get busy. Some picked up hoes, some carried shovels, and others began to count the existing resources in the village.

The whole village seemed to be injected with new vitality, tense and orderly.

Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing personally led the team and directed the excavation work.

They followed the stream beside the village and began to search for possible mineral deposits and water sources.

The sunlight shone through the gaps in the leaves and fell on their backs. Sweat slid down their cheeks and dripped into the soil.

Lu Qing waved the hoe and said, "The soil looks good, maybe there are treasures underneath!" Shen Qiqi took the probe and carefully explored every inch of the land, touching the probe lightly with her fingers, feeling the subtle vibrations coming from underground.

After outside forces learned of the village’s response, they quickly tightened restrictions in an attempt to completely trap the village.

Inspections on transport routes became stricter, and any attempts to break through were ruthlessly blocked.

The atmosphere in the village became more tense, and everyone's face was filled with determination and unwillingness.

However, Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing did not back down, but instead strengthened their resolve.

Shen Qiqi gripped the probe tightly, her eyes fixed on the front, the sweat on her forehead gleaming in the sunlight.

Lu Qing wielded the hoe, digging heavily into the soil with each strike, making a dull sound.

“Lu Qing,” Shen Qiqi suddenly stopped, a glint in her eyes, “I think we are about to find something…” Before she finished speaking, the probe in her hand suddenly vibrated strongly, as if responding to her premonition.

The vibration of the probe became stronger and stronger, and Shen Qiqi's heartbeat also accelerated. She seemed to hear the call from deep in the earth.

Seeing this, Lu Qing immediately put down the hoe in his hand. The two of them carefully dug the soil around the probe, peeling it off layer by layer, revealing a dark hole.

The cave entrance is bottomless, and a fresh breath gushes out, carrying the fragrance of soil, refreshing the heart.

Lu Qing lit a torch and held it to the cave entrance. He saw countless crystal clear minerals inlaid on the stone walls of the cave, which were shining brightly under the light of the fire.

"What the hell! What is this?!" Lu Qing exclaimed, his tone full of disbelief.

Shen Qiqi also widened her eyes, looking at the dream-like scene in front of her, her heart filled with excitement.

After careful exploration, they discovered that this was a new type of renewable energy, not only with abundant reserves, but also able to be converted into electricity and fuel, which could fully meet the needs of the entire village and even be exported to earn foreign exchange.
