"I don't know what's going on. The workers have been mining this mine for more than four hours, but there's something very strange going on inside. I've been doing this for many years, but I've never seen anything so strange, and it can't even be explained by common sense."
Zong Zhengchen frowned, his face solemn.
Master Gu waved his hand, "Don't worry, Lord Chen. The mountains are full of natural spirits, far away from the hustle and bustle of humans. They are like spirits. Many phenomena cannot be explained."
"Fortunately, our Gu family is well-informed and experienced. I'll take a look at the cave first, and it won't be too late to talk later."
He couldn't wait to see Qin Ye's miserable appearance.
He was so proud and confident in the morning, but now he's been slapped in the face.
I want to ask her if her face hurts?
Zong Zhengchen sighed, "Alright, alright... Patriarch Gu, please."
He walked ahead, followed closely by Master Gu and Gu Qingqing.
Entering the mine, it was extremely cool and shady.
As Master Gu walked away, he consoled her: "Don't worry, Prince Chen. I worked in mining before, and I've seen a lot of things. Princess Chen will be fine."
"I hope so..."
The man's face blended into the darkness, and his expression could not be seen clearly. His indifferent tone also made it impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry.
"With me here, there's no problem. Not to mention evil spirits, even if there are two ghosts, I have ways to deal with them. Once, I was sleeping alone in a mine. I was half asleep and half awake, and a woman in white spoke to me and told me to leave quickly."
"I woke up in a daze, and just as I walked out of the mine, the mine collapsed because the interior was too hollow and could not support itself."
Gu Qingqing was extremely surprised, "Dad, there is such a thing? Why didn't you tell me about it before?"
Master Gu just shook his head.
When it comes to his family, he always reports good news but not bad news.
“This time, when Princess Chen sees a ghost, we must first see whether it is an evil ghost or a good ghost, and then find a way to punish it.”
Of course, he would not act rashly, but he did a good job of putting on a show.
Zong Zhengchen walked in front, his voice dull, "In this case, I'll have to trouble Patriarch Gu to take care of it."
Deep into the mine, burning torches brought light and illumination.
"Ye'er, Patriarch Gu is here."
Standing in front of the huge stone wall, Qin Ye slowly turned around.
A pair of eyes, very bright:
"The head of the Gu family is here." She spoke in a steady and crisp voice, which was very pleasant to hear. She looked normal and did not look like she was possessed by a ghost at all.
Master Gu was stunned and confused.
Didn’t they say she encountered a ghost?
Shouldn't a person who has been possessed by an evil spirit be foolish or crazy? Why does she look no different from normal?
Gu Qingqing felt something was wrong, "Dad?"
Master Gu was also confused. "Princess Chen, I heard that you saw a ghost in the mine? Are you... okay?"
"Okay, why am I not okay?"
"???"
The tone of voice is normal and his hands and feet are fine, how can he be possessed by evil spirits?
Who spread the false news?
Stand up.
He promised not to beat him to death!
"Then you said something about seeing a ghost..."
"Oh, that's right," Qin Ye nodded in realization, then raised his hand and pointed in a certain direction, "Look."
The father and daughter looked in the direction she pointed.
Deep in the mine, the torches were dim, and under the dim light, a piece of silver pig iron refracted the light, shining brightly!
And they are all high-quality refined iron!
iron ore!
Piled up like mountains!
There are twice as many mines as the previous one!
Mr. Gu's eyes suddenly widened, his expression was stunned, and his mouth opened in shock.
This... How is this possible...
Qin Ye pointed at the iron ore and said, "Master Gu, look, it's fine to dig out ore from one mountain, but this one has been dug out as well. Is mining so easy now? Don't you think this is weird?"
