Chapter 107: Discovery of Oil



Ermuliang is a low-lying area at the foot of the mountain. Lin Feng pointed to this barren land and asked his brother-in-law, "If it rains, won't this place be flooded?"

I really don’t understand what my father-in-law’s family did. As an old farmer, my father-in-law shouldn’t make such a mistake, right?

Yang Yaozu chuckled, then brought Lin Feng to the field, then pulled aside a patch of grass and said, "Brother-in-law, there's a drainage hole here. Dad and I leveled the ground and checked it when it rained. It won't flood."

oh?

Lin Feng looked at the hidden cave entrance curiously, and even lay down to take a look inside. A pungent smell hit his nose. This smell was very strange, and he had never smelled it before.

Seeing Lin Feng's curiosity, Yang Yaozu explained, "Sometimes, some black grease will gush out of this hole. It's sticky and very annoying, and it's hard to wash off once it gets stuck."

Just as Lin Feng was curious, a few gurgling sounds were heard from the cave. Then, a ball of black liquid appeared at the entrance. Yang Yaozu pointed at the entrance and said, "Brother-in-law, this is it."

The black liquid stopped at the entrance of the hole and did not come out.

Lin Feng squatted down and picked some up with his fingers.

"Oh! Brother-in-law, why are you touching it? This thing is hard to wash." Yang Yaozu reminded anxiously.

Lin Feng didn't listen to him. He got some black liquid on him and put it under his nose to smell it. The smell was very strange. First of all, it could be concluded that this thing was not edible.

"It looks really hard to clean." Lin Feng tried to wipe his hands with weeds, but the weeds got bigger and bigger and couldn't be cleaned at all.

Later, Yang Yaozu told me a method, which was to rub my hands with soil.

Sure enough, I could clean it up with dirt, but there was still a lot of unpleasant odor left on my hands.

"Let's go! Let's go home!"

I looked around, but apart from these strange liquids that were difficult to clean up, I didn't find anything suspicious.

Lin Feng sent some into the space tower when his brother-in-law was not paying attention. The space tower is very powerful and it should be able to analyze it.

When they got home, they saw a lot of people outside the courtyard. Yang Yaozu explained, "Humph! These people are all villagers. They saw that our family moved into a big house, so they probably wanted to find out some information."

Lin Feng nodded and said nothing. It was human nature to make up stories. Seeing that his father-in-law's family had become prosperous, he felt it necessary to make friends with them.

The gate to the courtyard was not opened, and the villagers were calling out outside. It was obvious that the father-in-law was well aware of the nature of these people. Besides, the courtyard only belonged to him in name, and the actual investor was his son-in-law. He couldn't let outsiders in without authorization.

"Make way." Yang Yaozu shouted loudly. These people blocked the door of his house and he couldn't get in.

"Oh my! Yaozu! Your family is rich now."

"Yes! Yes! Such a large yard must have cost a lot of money, right?"

"I heard it was bought in exchange for a lot of food. Wow! What a generous act!"

"Well! Food prices have been rising these days. Even if you have money, you may not be able to buy it."

"Yaozu, we heard that it was your brother-in-law who provided the food. Can I meet him? We don't have much food at home, and we want to buy some from him."

"I want to buy food too. The price is negotiable."

...The villagers were making so much noise that Yang Yaozu and Lin Feng felt a little overwhelmed.

"Everyone, I am the son-in-law of this family. You are late. The food has been given to the rich man Wang. Otherwise, this yard would not be given to me. You can all go away!" Lin Feng said loudly.

Everyone looked at Lin Feng, somewhat incredulously. Aren't all wealthy people well-fed and well-dressed? Why are you so ordinary?

Seeing that everyone was unconvinced, Yang Yaozu said, "It's true. My brother-in-law's words are true. You saw it too. Mr. Wang took away so much grain. My brother-in-law is an outsider. How could he have any extra grain to sell to you? Go back!"

After saying that, Yang Yaozu walked forward and knocked on the door, and it was Xin the Hunter who opened the door.

"Brother-in-law, I'm afraid something might happen." As soon as he entered the yard, Yang Yaozu said to Lin Feng.

Lin Feng asked, "Are you afraid they won't believe you and will take the risk to snatch it away?"

"Yes!" Yang Yaozu nodded.

Lin Feng laughed heartily, then patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, with my brother-in-law here, no one can get in here. If anyone dares to come in and rob, they will die!"

With that, Lin Feng walked back to his room, leaving his brother-in-law alone in the yard in a daze. He didn't understand where his brother-in-law got his confidence from?

When Lin Feng entered the house, he found that his wife was not in the room. He thought she had gone to talk to her parents. It just so happened that he had something else to deal with.

As soon as he entered the space tower, Lin Feng was stunned. He saw countless black bees flying around, and they were all very large, much larger than the ones he had seen in the bandit's lair.

When the black bees saw the outsider coming, they rushed forward to attack, but a huge purple black bee got in front of Lin Feng first. Under Lin Feng's gaze, the giant purple bee landed on Lin Feng's shoulder and rubbed Lin Feng's cheek with its big furry head. The other black bees did not dare to attack anymore.

Inside the space tower, Lin Feng was not afraid at all. As long as he thought about it, these murderous poisonous black bees would turn into ashes.

"Linglong Tower." Lin Feng called out.

"I'm here, master." Linglong Tower responded.

"What's with these black bees?"

Linglong Tower's voice rang out: "Master, the black bee on your shoulder is the one you brought in. The others are its offspring."

"I brought it in? I originally brought in a dead black bee, but it wasn't this color?" Lin Feng looked at the purple black bee on his shoulder curiously.

"Master, this black bee has absorbed the aura of the spiritual spring, and its species has evolved. It is now a royal black bee."

"Ah? Royal Black Bee? What the hell is this?" Lin Feng exclaimed in surprise, but then he was relieved. With the power of spiritual spring water, everything is possible.

"Linglong Tower, I came here to ask you to do two things. One is to analyze the black liquid I brought in, and the other is to open the third level of the space tower."

A lot of Fire Scale Stones were found in the cave of the manor in Guifan Mountain. Li Chunfeng was also there, but Li Chunfeng did not stop him from collecting the Fire Scale Stones. It is not known whether he did not understand the value of this thing or had other intentions.

"Okay, master." Linglong Tower just responded, and the black liquid that had been collected on the ground disappeared out of thin air.

In the blink of an eye, the Linglong Tower responded: "Master, this thing is called oil, a kind of energy. On Earth, this thing is very popular."

"Oil? What can it do?" Lin Feng asked curiously.

"It's a fuel that can drive machinery and can be used to extract additional products. It has a wide range of uses and is quite valuable. It's also a powerful weapon of war. Once refined, it's extremely flammable and difficult to extinguish."

"So powerful?" Lin Feng touched his chin. It seemed that Mr. Wang knew something. Such a powerful thing must be in his own hands.

"Petroleum? What a corny name."
