Although she always provided extremely generous compensation, she still felt quite distressed when she saw the desperate cries and wails of elderly parents who had lost their children, young wives who had lost their husbands, and young children who had lost their fathers.
By this time, Zu'an had already opened the booklet. It was filled with densely written information, but the beginning consisted mainly of daily tasks, nothing particularly noteworthy.
However, in the latest messages, he found some useful information: "...There seems to have been an earthquake in the mine today, but it subsided quickly, and no one took it too seriously... A strange black mist appeared, and no one knows where it came from; it's everywhere in the mine... We've tried everything to dispel it..."
"This black mist is corrosive; it will cause ordinary miners to rot if they touch it, and even our guards can't withstand it. However, some officers with high cultivation levels can resist it for a short time."
"We soon discovered that the black mist also had hallucinogenic effects. Many miners and guards, even those who did not directly enter the black mist, experienced various hallucinations and became increasingly deranged."
“Work at the mine can obviously not continue, so we notified all the miners to move to the surface… but there’s black fog everywhere, and we’re not sure if everyone has made it up.”
"Our mission is to search for any remaining people who might be trapped down there. Madam said a long time ago that the Yu family cannot abandon anyone trapped in the mine. We cannot bring shame to Madam and the Yu family."
Upon seeing this, Zu'an couldn't help but glance at Yu Yanluo. Yu Yanluo didn't show any smugness; instead, she looked very sad.
Zuan grasped her cold hand and continued reading. The handwriting became messy, and the notes were disjointed:
"...There's bad news today. We encountered black fog on our way here, and we can't go back..."
"However, we can't abandon the mission. First, we need to search other areas and gather all the stragglers together. Boss Ding told us that the supply depot had already notified Cloud City of what had happened here, and Madam will send people to rescue us. The Yu family won't abandon anyone, and I trust Madam..."
"Madam is so beautiful. If I had the chance to meet her in person this time, I would be happy to receive a reward, but to see her up close would be such a wonderful thing."
Seeing this, Zu'an felt a little sad. This guard was still fantasizing about making merit here and receiving Yu Yanluo's reward. Unfortunately, he didn't know that a huge change had occurred in Yunzhong City. Yu Yanluo was accused of being a demon, and Yu Xuansu and others who could make decisions were also wiped out. These days, the Yu family was in chaos, and the relevant personnel did not know that something big had happened at the mine, so how could they send anyone to rescue them?
They were waiting for reinforcements that were destined never to arrive.
Upon seeing this, Yu Yanluo's eyes flashed with a murderous aura, and she was no longer as gentle and tender as before.
As the head of the family, she naturally bears the responsibility of the family. Because Xu Yu made trouble for her, causing the people here to fall into a desperate situation, she naturally blamed him for this.
The two hurriedly looked down, and the handwriting became increasingly illegible, clearly indicating that his hand must have been shaking badly when he wrote it:
"People are going missing every day, and our companions are dwindling."
"Even Boss Ding has disappeared today!!! He was our leader, and his cultivation was the highest among us!"
"There is something even more terrifying than the black mist. It is everywhere. Who is it?!"
