Chapter 953: Oil
Although she was not very pleased with the old man, Qin Chuchu still agreed.
"Pao, you stay here and help catch snakes!"
Little Cannon looked at Qin Chuchu, blinked his big eyes, and felt the same as her.
Although he was not very willing, he still did not refute and called out twice to the Husky girl and her family behind him.
He led them directly into the woods and flew back after a while.
Each claw caught one or two snakes, some thick and some thin, which made Old Sun very happy.
"Okay, okay, this is fine too!"
In his excitement, he reached out to catch the snake from Little Cannon's claws. Fortunately, the young man next to him reacted quickly and stopped him.
After realizing what was happening, he quickly asked everyone to bring bags.
Looking at the old man's confused look, Qin Chuchu rolled her eyes speechlessly.
“………………”
You have never seen the world, yet you are so happy.
Seeing Chu Chu's disgusted eyes, the man suppressed the smile on his face and pulled her back.
"Why don't you hurry up?"
After saying that, he pointed at Xu Zhe on the hillside, who was about to disappear.
Qin Chuchu was anxious now. She shook off the man's hand and ran forward.
Fearing that Chuchu might be in danger, the men followed closely behind, with Feng Jiu rushing to the front.
The others followed behind, carrying large iron buckets. After they climbed over the hill with one foot deep and one foot shallow, they saw a field of rugged rocks.
Everyone's eyes lit up, and they thought that this side of the hillside would be the same as the other side, with trees of all sizes everywhere.
As it turned out, there weren't many trees, but there were quite a few stones. Most importantly, there was a strange smell coming from time to time, which was quite unpleasant.
"Boss, the oil is in there."
Xu Zhe pointed to the cave in front and ran towards it.
Qin Chuchu seemed particularly excited, following behind with one foot deep and one foot shallow.
As soon as I arrived at the entrance of the cave, I was shocked by the scene in front of me.
"Oh my, that's a lot of asphalt! There's not much oil left, is there?"
She pointed to the thick layer of asphalt beside her and looked at Xu Zhe with curiosity.
This asphalt is the product of petroleum volatilization. Since so much asphalt has been formed, I guess there is not much petroleum left.
Just like the asphalt mine at home, the oil has long evaporated.
"Don't worry, boss. Even if we are gone, we won't lose the oil."
Xu Zhe glanced at Qin Chuchu with disdain. How could it evaporate so quickly? Besides, there wasn't much asphalt outside. The boss's worries were totally unnecessary.
"Get out!" Qin Chuchu glared at Xu Zhe. This guy has a really sharp tongue.
Without arguing with him, we went into the cave together and immediately saw a small hole in the stone wall from which liquid was leaking.
“That’s oil, right?”
She pointed at the liquid that was leaking out, and from the smell of that dead smell it must be oil.
"Well, come here!"
Xu Zhe nodded, waved to the people behind him, and ran towards the stone wall.
He took the iron scoop in his hand and placed it in front of the small hole where oil was flowing. After a while, he caught a small scoop.
He then had someone open the iron bucket and pour the liquid into it.
"Just pick it up like I did."
After saying that, he handed the ladle in his hand to the people behind him and asked them to do the same.
Han Muchen stood aside and watched quietly, then looked at the environment in the cave.
His eyes fell on the asphalt outside the cave again.
It turns out that the thing was transformed from this thing. Not only Chu Chu knew it, but even Xu Zhe understood it.
He became even more certain in his heart that this Xu Zhe was definitely not a simple person. Even Feng Liu and Feng Qi who were standing behind him thought so.
I used to think Xu Zhe was a small-time gangster who could only rely on pleasing the princess, but now I don’t think so anymore.
None of the strange things in the tent can be understood. This guy is not simple.
Qin Chuchu was satisfied after watching for a while, and ran directly out of the cave to play. When the man followed her out, he was nowhere to be found.
When I craned my neck to look, I found that Chuchu had climbed up the tree.
"Your Highness, Wanbao Mountain is so huge!"
Qin Chuchu lay on the highest fork of the tree, pointing excitedly at everything in front of her.
I've always wanted to see how big this area is. Now looking down, it's much bigger than I imagined.
But you can see more than just a few hills. As far as the eye can see, it's a huge area. No wonder it has survived for hundreds of years.
Han Muchen craned his neck to look for a while, then he touched the ground with his feet, jumped into the air, and landed lightly next to Qin Chuchu and sat down.
He hooked his hands around Chuchu's soft waist and accompanied her to look at the scenery in the distance.
When Feng Liu and Feng Qi chased out, they saw their master and the princess cuddling on a tree.
“…………” The two looked at each other and went back to the cave to watch the fun.
Qin Chuchu felt so happy that she shook her legs with joy.
He was either pointing this way or looking that way, muttering non-stop.
But as he was speaking, the sound in his mouth stopped and he stretched his neck to look into the distance.
"Your Majesty, why does it seem like there's someone over there?"
She squinted her eyes and stared straight ahead. Because it was too far away, she couldn't see clearly, but she felt like someone was moving over there.
The man followed her gaze, a flash of panic in his eyes.
"No way! It's too cold up here, let's go down!"
Han Muchen grabbed Qin Chuchu's fingers, and without waiting for her to speak, he put his arm around her waist and quickly fell to the ground.
"Hmm?" Qin Chuchu was brought to the ground by the man before she could recover from her shock. She remembered what she had just seen and was about to say a few more words when she was interrupted by the man again.
"I reckon the firewood should be loaded by now. Don't you want to drive anymore?"
"Yes! Then let's go back now!"
Qin Chuchu's attention was successfully attracted. Without asking any other questions, she shook off the man's hand and ran back.
“………………”Han Muchen breathed a sigh of relief.
He glanced again at the direction Chuchu had just pointed and quickly followed.
When he returned to the main group, the first group of convoys had already left. Qin Chuchu pouted and looked at the man with dissatisfaction.
"Just walk faster!"
If I hadn't dawdled, I would have been able to catch the bus.
Seeing Chuchu's deflated look, the man smiled indulgently.
"Isn't there another trip?"
Just as he was about to pull Chuchu's little hand to caress her, she dodged him.
Seeing Old Sun making a lot of noise over there, Qin Chuchu ran over curiously.
Seeing her coming, Old Sun proudly pointed to the several large bags in front of him.
"Princess, look, these are all caught by the little cannons."
Looking at the four or five big bags in front of him, Old Sun smiled with wrinkles on his face.
I thought it would be good if I could catch a few snakes today, but I never expected to catch so many.
And it’s only been a short time. If we catch them a little longer, there will be more than this.
And those 50,000 soldiers were also very skillful and collected so many herbs in such a short time.
If we continue at this pace, I guess we won’t have to go to the market to buy medicinal herbs.
Looking at the old man's excitement, Qin Chuchu rarely didn't glare at him, but still rushed into the crowd to play.
