"Where did Ifukushin go?" Yi Xiaomai asked curiously.
"How should I know? He said he had some things to do in the human world, and wanted me to help him guard the gold mine to prevent people with ulterior motives from taking it for themselves. He said that if his descendants come one day, he will hand it over to his descendants to manage and use it." The mountain god looked up and down at Yi Xiaomai, and then looked up and down at Mo Ping'an.
He turned to Mo Ping'an and asked, "Girl, is your last name Yi too?"
"No, no, no, Grandpa Mountain God, my last name is Mo." Mo Ping'an waved his hands repeatedly.
"That's a pity. God Ifu said that the mission will only be completed if it is handed over to a female descendant with the surname I." The mountain god sighed.
Yi Xiaomai seemed to have thought of something, and took out a miniature portrait and showed it to the mountain god, "Look, is this the God Yi Fu?" It turned out that Yi Xiaomai was showing a miniature portrait of his own ancestor. Yi Yami said that if he was going on a long journey, he would carry the miniature portrait with him, and the ancestor would bless him. He Huaizhu believed it, so he asked Yi Xiaomai to draw a portrait for him to carry with him.
The mountain god squinted his eyes and looked at it. "Oh, yes, it's him. How did you get his portrait?"
"This is our ancestor. My mother said that when going on a long journey, carrying the portrait of the ancestor can help us report our safety. So I carry a mini version of the portrait with me." Yi Xiaomai explained with a smile.
After the mountain god confirmed it, Yi Xiaomai put it away carefully.
"Grandpa Mountain God, don't worry. I have an older sister at home who has a close relationship with my ancestor. I think my older sister should be the person you are looking for." Yi Xiaomai said with a smile.
The old mountain god said, "Okay, then quickly find your sister. I don't want to keep guarding this gold mine. It's exhausting. I want to go somewhere else."
Upon hearing this, Yi Xiaomai took out the food she had brought with her and said, "Grandpa Mountain God, please try this. This is the food made by my eldest sister. Please try it. My eldest sister originally came with me, but after we fell down, we lost contact and I don't know where the other two went."
When the old mountain god heard this, he stroked his beard and pricked up his ears to listen. "Don't worry, they fell down. There is another mine below. I can't hear any movement from them, so I think they must have left."
Yi Xiaomai and Mo Pingan looked at each other and asked, "Can you take us to the mine down there?"
"No, there are bad people there, lots of them, holding whips and chains, chaining the villagers and forcing them to work." The old mountain god shook his head. "You two are so weak, you're not going to have a good time if you go there."
"Do you know who these people are?" Yi Xiaomai frowned when he heard this.
"I don't know either. The leader is a man in black clothes. He never lets people see his true face. He comes to the mine once on the 15th of every month to check the progress of mining." The old mountain god recalled and answered Yi Xiaomai's question.
"Today is the 13th, and in two days it will be the 15th. Then you will be able to see that person." Mo Ping'an reminded.
The old mountain god tasted the food Yi Xiaomai gave him and found it delicious. He smiled and said, "Since you are familiar with my old friend and you brought me delicious food, and since I will be free soon, I will send you to find your eldest sister."
When Yi Xiaomai and Mo Pingan heard this, their eyes lit up, but Yi Xiaomai was puzzled. "Then how can we come to see you next time? The upstairs has collapsed, and we can't get down from there."
"It's okay. I'll send you two out later and give you a whistle. When you've finished dealing with it and want to come find me, just blow the whistle and the door will open, and you can come find me. I only have one request, that you bring me something hot to eat next time you come, I don't like cold food." The old mountain god produced a black triangular stone in his hand and said it was a whistle, but no one would believe it.
Yi Xiaomai took the stone and thanked him.
The next second, the two were sent to the place where Yi Yami and Gu Beijian were resting.
Yi Yami and Gu Beijian were shocked when they saw two people suddenly appear.
Yi Xiaomai and the other person explained to Yi Yami what happened next. Yi Yami decided to let the two of them have a good rest first, and then discuss how to deal with the iron ore and gold mines the next day.
