Chapter 143 Done
Lin Xi came to the northernmost side of the mound and released his special powers. Vines quickly drilled into the mound and stirred it rapidly!
"Huh? Erniu, do you see that the soil over there is moving?" Da Niu wiped his eyes blurred by sweat and asked his younger brother Erniu uncertainly.
Erniu thought his elder brother was looking for a topic to chat with him again! Just when he was about to tell him not to joke around, he looked up and was stunned.
"There's a ghost!" The timid Erniu completely forgot what the police had said to them before, and hid behind his eldest brother while screaming.
The others were attracted by his shouting and looked in the direction he was looking, which almost scared them to death.
I saw that the mound that was as high as a hill just now suddenly turned into flat ground, and even appeared to be concave downwards. This was too weird!
"Could this be an earthquake?"
Daniu's whole body was shaking as he spoke. There was an earthquake when he was about four or five years old. Many houses in the village collapsed and many people were trapped underneath. He can still remember that scene vividly!
"That's impossible! Isn't it said that earthquakes are large-scale and widespread?"
Erniu was not born when the earthquake happened. He only heard the news from the elders in the village, so he was not sure.
"I'm not sure...my memory is a bit fuzzy." Daniu scratched the back of his head embarrassedly. He didn't even finish elementary school and had no idea about the so-called earthquake.
"Don't panic, everyone... This isn't an earthquake, but it should be a collapse similar to an earthquake, so everyone should find a safe place to hide first! Remember to stay away from this pile of dirt..."
The police, who had remained silent, didn't know whether this could be considered an earthquake or not, but the most important thing now was to ensure the safety of the villagers. This was the most important thing!
When the twenty people in the village heard what the police said, they no longer cared whether they could earn work points or not. The most important thing now was to save their lives... so they all moved away from the mound to find a place to hide.
After all the villagers had left, several police officers cautiously approached the deep pit that had suddenly appeared. They almost had a heart attack when they saw it, because the pit in front of them was so deep that they couldn't see the bottom at a glance.
"This...isn't this a bit too unbelievable..."
The youngest policeman's legs were shaking when he saw the bottomless pit. He didn't know how it was formed in such a short time.
"It is truly incredible. I can only say that the power of nature is immeasurable!"
The public security chief can only attribute all this to nature, otherwise there is no way to explain the origin of the pit.
“Should we continue digging?” The young policeman asked a soul-searching question as he looked at the deep pit!
"What are you digging for? How can you dig so deep? Why don't you go down and dig?" The head of the police almost vomited blood because of his words. How could he ask such an unreliable question about the matter in front of him? He would be embarrassed if he told others about it...
“Oh! I see…” The young policeman was scolded so badly that he couldn’t even raise his head!
"What? Not digging anymore? Then what about the work points we agreed on before? Do they still count?"
Li An, who had been hiding nearby and eavesdropping, immediately jumped out to ask when he heard the police say they would stop digging.
He was thinking that if he could work a few more days, he could have a good New Year! Now, it was still uncertain whether he could get today's work points!
As Li An's voice was a little loud, several villagers hiding nearby also heard it and came out to ask for an explanation.
"Yes! We came to the mountain to earn more work points to support our families. Now you say you don't want to dig anymore. Isn't that a waste of our time?"
"Yes, yes! If I had known, I wouldn't have come. I could have earned work points by working in the fields!"
"That's right... if you say you don't want to dig, then don't dig. This is just a joke!"
The villagers expressed their dissatisfaction one after another, and each of their faces was filled with resentment!
"No...you have to give me an explanation...otherwise I'm not going to go back."
A young man of about eighteen or nineteen said this and then sat down on the ground where he was standing and didn't get up.
Although the others did not sit on the ground like him, each of them had an expression as if they wanted an explanation.
Several police officers were confused by them and didn't know how to deal with it for a while. After all, they were the ones who broke their promise first, and it was impossible to force them to do anything.
"Everyone listen to me... I know I am sorry for everyone this time. You can see that this pit is so deep that there is no need to dig. Even how to get down is a problem."
"You don't want to risk your lives going down there, do you? As for the work points we agreed on today, I will explain it to the village chief after we get down the mountain and ask him to record the 15 work points we agreed on today for you."
"Comrade Public Security, are you serious? Are you really going to give us fifteen work points for today?"
The young man who had just been sitting on the ground couldn't sit still anymore and simply stood up.
"Of course, I'm a man of my words, so I'll have the village chief give each of you fifteen work points for today."
"Oh yeah! Comrade Public Security is such a good person..."
The young men no longer had the previous confrontational attitude. When they heard that they would be given work points, they cheered happily on the spot!
"Okay, comrades, if you all agree, let's go down the mountain quickly!"
The public security comrades struck while the iron was hot and wanted them to get down the mountain quickly, after all, this place was very evil.
"Well, let's just listen to our public security comrades!"
"Yeah! This place is very gloomy..."
"I think so too... Let's get down the mountain quickly!"
The twenty young men talked as they ran down quickly, fearing that something was chasing them from behind.
The police officers behind him were stunned. It was a shame for him not to join the army at this rate...
After they ran far away, several public security comrades followed them down the mountain.
After seeing them all leave, Lin Xi came out from behind the big tree where he was hiding. After retracting his special powers, he approached the deep pit and was shocked when he took a look. The pit was so deep that it was a bit scary!
It would be better for her to leave quickly, so Lin Xi also left here and walked back...
When she returned to the village, she saw several public security comrades surrounding the village chief and talking about work points. Lin Xi did not join in the fun, but turned around and went back to the Youth League compound and into her own room.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, Chu Ran ran to the door to welcome her in, "Xixi, you're back. Is everything okay?"
Chu Ran walked around her with concern, and when he saw that her clothes were neither dirty nor torn, he knew that she was fine, and he completely put his worries aside.
"I'm fine, very well! No one comes to look for me, right?" Lin Xi asked.
"Oh! That's good... Gu Tingxiao's mother came, but I sent her back. I told her exactly what you said. She said hello to you on my behalf and told you to have a good rest before she left."
Chu Ran told the truth about what happened when Lin Xi was away, and explained it in detail from beginning to end.
"I understand. You should go back and have some rest... I'll find you later..." Lin Xi still wanted to go into the space to take a look, so he couldn't accompany her for the time being.
"Well, I'll go back first. I'm sleepy too." Chu Ran yawned at the right time!
After Chu Ran left, Lin Xi locked the door from the inside and entered the space. Unexpectedly, what he saw was not a chaotic scene, but a happy scene.
