Chapter 339: The Stepping Stone of Luck
Su Nuan was very curious, but she could also guess that it was probably a mine collapse and there were casualties.
She comforted him, "Everyone has their own expertise. Those miners might get hurt. Your people are not professionals, so..."
Ling Yun shook his head, "No, there were no casualties, it was something else."
Su Nuan stared at him blankly, and seeing the hesitation on his face, a surge of anger rose in her.
She slammed the table and stood up, "Ling Yun, are you a man? You are so hesitant when you speak."
"It's just me. Anyone else would have been impatient to listen. Are you going to tell me or not?"
Ling Yun was embarrassed and added in his mind, "Only you dare to yell at me and lose your temper. Who else would dare to speak up in front of me?"
Unfortunately, he didn't dare to say this, and could only force a smile, "Sister-in-law, calm down. What I encountered was a bit outrageous, so I don't know how to start."
"If I say too much, I'm afraid I'll scare you. If I say too little, I'm afraid you won't understand."
Su Nuan sat down slowly. "If you don't even say anything, how can I know if I can understand?"
Ling Yun nodded, "Yes, yes, sister-in-law is right."
At this time, the space spirit sent a message to Su Nuan, "There's something wrong with this kid."
Su Nuan felt the same way, but couldn't figure out what was wrong for a moment.
"I think so too, but I haven't seen any problem yet."
The Space Spirit said, "The tone and attitude of the speech."
A light flashed through Su Nuan's mind. Yes, Ling Yun is a straightforward person. It is really unlike him to be so hesitant and tactful today.
The Space Spirit smiled and said, "Maybe he has received a lot of education during this period and knows how to communicate with girls."
Su Nuan lowered her eyes and hid the smile in her eyes. Who cares? As long as he doesn't make her angry, it's fine.
Ling Yun, who had now organized his words, spoke up, "The mine was originally being dug smoothly. There was a lot of coal inside, and sometimes we could even dig out a large piece of coal as big as a tree trunk."
"Later, as we dug deeper and added more tunnels, problems arose."
Su Nuan was really anxious to hear this, so she interrupted and asked, "What's the problem?"
Ling Yun was choked by Su Nuan's words. He also knew that he seemed to be hesitant too much. He quickly said, "It's the people who went down to mine who saw the ghost."
Su Nuan was pouring tea, and when she heard this, the tea spilled all over the table.
"What? Haunted?"
Ling Yun nodded, "Yes, all kinds of strange noises can be heard in the mines, and they even saw ghosts."
Su Nuan was speechless. She had just been able to see the magnetic field of the space spirit, and you were telling me it was haunted. This was too much of a coincidence.
The space spirit laughed and said, "It's not necessarily a ghost. There must be gas in the coal mine. If you inhale too much, you will have hallucinations. It's because they didn't pay attention to ventilation."
Su Nuan felt that this was very likely, so she smiled and said, "Let's go check it out tomorrow and stop working for a few days."
Ling Yun nodded, "Okay, then I won't disturb my sister-in-law's rest."
He stood up and walked to the door, then turned back and asked, "Do you want to invite a Taoist priest?"
Su Nuan chuckled, "No need, even if there really is a ghost, I can find it and beat it up."
The worry on Ling Yun's face instantly turned into surprise. Wu Long's words flashed through his mind, "Women are unpredictable creatures!"
He quickly opened the door and walked out, then closed it behind him.
Su Nuan shook the teacup to cool it down quickly. "Really? I thought something big had happened. It's a good thing there were no casualties."
"It's just... Space Spirit, how do you dig a coal mine? The new knowledge doesn't explain it."
The space spirit said, "This is similar to digging a snow tunnel in winter. Try to support it with wood at intervals."
"If ventilation from the entrance is not possible, then ventilation holes must be dug. Otherwise, if too much gas is inhaled, people will be poisoned and die."
Su Nuan was a little embarrassed. "If the hole is dug too deep, it will definitely be difficult to open the ventilation vent. Doesn't that mean we can't dig coal at that depth?"
The space spirit said: "It's not a big deal. If it doesn't work, just light it up."
Su Nuan, “…”
Ignite? It seems like it will explode.
The space spirit chuckled, "Anyway, the coal mine doesn't need to be so complete. Blast it directly and it will save a lot of effort."
Su Nuan felt that this was the last resort and it would be better not to use it unless absolutely necessary.
She looked at the Space Spirit and said, "You haven't changed at all. Did you evolve for nothing?"
The Space Spirit chuckled, "This isn't an evolved form. Do you want to know what I evolved into?"
Su Nuan nodded, "Yeah, yeah, I want to know."
The Space Spirit kept it a secret, "No, I haven't determined the final form yet, but it's definitely not what it is now."
Su Nuan lost interest instantly, "Forget it, I'm going to go back to sleep."
But in the middle of the night, Su Nuan found that her whole body was cold, she couldn't open her eyes, and she felt suffocated, as if she was back to the day when she fell into the ice hole.
Su Nuan seemed to struggle, but her hands and feet could not move, and her body felt heavy as if filled with lead.
She wanted to call for help, but her throat felt like it was clogged with cotton wool and she couldn't make a single sound.
Although she felt very depressed and suffocated, Su Nuan knew very well that she would not die, but the panic in her heart was infinitely magnified.
Slowly she relaxed herself, letting her disordered breathing calm down, and kept telling herself that this was a nightmare.
Before long, the panic in her heart receded like the tide, and she felt like a fish suspended in water, able to breathe again.
After a moment, she opened her eyes and saw phosphorescence in front of her eyes. The stars were not dazzling, but very cold.
For some unknown reason, Su Nuan felt an infinite sadness in her heart, making her so sad that she wished she could die in the next second.
At this moment, a voice called out to me...
"Nuan girl..."
“Nuannuan…”
"Sister-in-law... wuwuwu..."
"daughter in law……"
…
Su Nuan smiled slightly. Her whole family was there. She might have fallen into a coma, and they must be worried.
But why couldn't I wake up? Could it be that I was also poisoned by that gas?
"Sister-in-law, wake up!"
Ling Yun's loud shout made Su Nuan tremble all over. She struggled hard and opened her eyes as if she came back to life.
She looked around in confusion. It was pitch black and there was no one around.
"Is this really a nightmare?"
She felt a little cold, and when she touched herself she found that she was covered in cold sweat.
She hurried into the space and rushed into the courtyard to take a shower.
After she washed and changed her clothes, she sat in the rocking chair and relaxed.
Hailan appeared beside her, tilting her head to look at her with a strange look in her eyes.
Su Nuan's heart tightened, and she asked, "Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something wrong with my body?"
Hai Lan raised his hand and hovered it above Su Nuan's head. A blue circle of light appeared in the palm of his hand, and the circle of light sank down and covered Su Nuan.
Su Nuan wanted to cry but had no tears. "Am I seriously ill? I don't want to die yet!"
"Is it true that only the lucky ones deserve to live in this world, and my accident can only serve as a stepping stone for the lucky ones?"
