Yi Xiaomai first took Mo Ping'an to the residences of the miners who died.
"Why do these two officers look so young?" someone pointed.
"I don't know, maybe he's a new relative?"
When Yi Xiaomai saw people talking about her, she stepped forward and said, "Hello, uncles and aunts. I want to ask you something."
"What's going on?" the neighbors asked in confusion.
"I want to ask about the mine disaster that happened that year. Does anyone still remember how to get to that mine?" Yi Xiaomai asked cautiously and tentatively.
As soon as these words were spoken, those people's eyes began to moisten, and they began to curse, "You black-hearted officials, you insisted on mining, causing our children to die and get injured, it's all because of you!"
Some of them angrily picked up some vegetable leaves and threw them at Yi Xiaomai and Mo Ping'an.
Yi Xiaomai turned around and stood in front of Mo Pingan.
Before Yi Xiaomai could speak, she heard a familiar female voice, "You have your own grievances and your own debts. Why are you taking your anger out on the new imperial envoy?"
Yi Xiaomai looked at the newcomer in surprise, "Elder sister!"
Yi Yami and Gu Beijian reined in their horses and dismounted.
When those people heard that it was the imperial envoy, they stopped.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, we didn't know you were the imperial envoy. You are too young, we thought you were the yamen runners..." The man who took the lead in throwing vegetable leaves apologized.
"It's okay, but why can you throw vegetable leaves at the yamen runners without any hesitation?" Yi Xiaomai wondered.
"Well, come to think of it, it's our fault too. We shouldn't have instigated our children to work in the mines. If they hadn't gone, the things that happened later wouldn't have happened..." The leading man sighed deeply.
"Uncle, I'm sorry for your condolences, but didn't the court give any pension later?" Yi Xiaomai asked in confusion.
"We gave it to you, but that little bit of money is really insignificant compared to our relatives." The old man in the lead spoke.
Yi Xiaomai asked how much they were given, and the old man in the lead gave a number that matched the amount stipulated by the court. He originally thought that Guan Jing had withheld their pensions.
"Hey, old man, I am also very sad that this happened, but the court does not want such a thing to happen. Now that things have come to this, we still have to continue to live a good life. But I will record your situation one by one and report it when I have the chance. If there is a chance to improve it or to provide everyone with more benefits, I will fight for everyone." Yi Xiaomai said seriously.
These words were spoken with such sincerity that they comforted the people.
Yi Xiaomai and Mo Pingan walked up to Yi Yami and asked, "Eldest sister, why are you here?"
"I won't come because I'm afraid you two kids can't handle it." Yi Yami nodded gently at Yi Xiaomai and Mo Ping'an lovingly.
Yi Xiaomai and Mo Pingan looked at each other and said, "Eldest sister, you underestimate us."
"Okay, okay, this time your brother Gu and I will be your bodyguards and wisdom team, and you will be in the front." Yi Yami said with a smile.
"If that's the case, that would be great!" Yi Xiaomai said happily. Yi Yami has always been busy and didn't have time to accompany him when he was a child. Now that he has this opportunity, he couldn't ask for more.
Yi Yami smiled, with two dimples on her lips.
Mo Pingan took out the map he had drawn and said, "Sister, look."
Yi Yami and Gu Beijian leaned over to take a look. "Is this the route map?"
"Yeah." Mo Ping'an nodded.
"Okay, okay, since you have a route map, then let's look for it according to it!" Yiyami said.
But Yi Xiaomai thought, "Sister, this is the route map that Ping An dreamt of. If we go there rashly, wouldn't it be bad?"
"Whether it's useful or not, we have to look for it. Besides, you can't get any useful results from these people now. Since God has given us instructions, let's give it a try. Even if it doesn't work, we just know a way to failure, and our work is not in vain. No step is taken in vain, Xiaomai, don't think that you can achieve it in one step. Many things require a lot of trials and tribulations before you can get what you want." Yiyami comforted him.
Upon hearing this, Yi Xiaomai nodded quickly and said, "Let's go. I'm being too stubborn."
Yi Xiaomai asked the yamen runners to continue to inquire with the people whether there was any useful information, and the four of them followed Mo Ping'an's route map and searched all the way there.
The four men rode their horses, first following the direction of the stream, and then they saw a birch forest.
"Birch forest! It's here! This is the birch forest where my father took me!" Mo Ping'an said excitedly.
The four men dismounted and tied up their horses.
Four people were searching for the triangle symbol in the birch forest.
After searching for a long time, I found it at the end.
After finding it, they walked towards the tip of the triangle and saw a super huge boulder. Just like in Mo Ping'an's dream, everyone except Mo Ping'an felt goosebumps.
After climbing over the boulder, they saw a half-hidden cave. Gu Beijian stopped Yi Yami and said, "I'm in the front. Xiaomai, you follow the rear. Follow me, be good, and Ping'an, follow me." Gu Beijian called Yi Yami to be good, and Yi Yami blushed. Yi Xiaomai and Mo Ping'an also felt like teasing her, but this was not the time to joke.
Gu Beijian lowered his head, holding the torch, holding Yi Yami's hand, and said, "Pay attention to your feet and your head."
Yi Yami felt the warmth in her hands and felt very happy.
Several people passed through the narrow cave and came to a wide area.
Several people breathed in the fresh air. Yi Xiaomai observed carefully and found that there seemed to be a cave in front of them. Several people were about to walk towards the cave.
Yi Xiaomai felt the ground beneath her feet loosen and sink, and she fell in.
Mo Ping'an was close by and reached out to pull him.
Yi Yami also held on to Mo Ping'an tightly. The ground sank more and more, and all four of them fell down directly.
