1566. Questions and Answers (1/5)
He became more serious, while Wang Juesin laughed, and he laughed happier as he listened to his words.
"What are you laughing at?" Li Du asked.
Mao Juexin smiled and said, "I laughed at you for being self-righteous, and I laughed at you for being smart."
Li Du also laughed, just sneering: "Ha, you're just hiding. My guess is right. You know there is a jade mine on the mountain. Your father and your grandfathers also know that this is the secret of your family?!"
Seeing him speaking seriously, Mao Juexin finally stopped smiling. He said, "Your imagination is too rich, it's all fake."
Li Du said: "When I dig out a piece of jade, it will prove that these are not fake."
After he said this, Mao Juexin suddenly became angry. He said angrily: "You are still quibbling, you are also saying that you did not come to Wuku Town for the Jade Mine!"
Li Du said: "I didn't come for the jade mine, but I know the location of the jade mine, and I am sure there must be a jade mine on Denai Mountain!"
Mao Juexin said in shock: "How is it possible? How can there be a jade mine in Denay Mountain? How can you be sure?"
Li Du said: "I have evidence, I got a map by chance, this..."
"God!" Maumu Juesin stood up in shock, "You, you, you got a map? Not a map! What you got is a priceless jade carving! The Deno Mountain God's chalcedony in your hands?!"
The other party's reaction shocked Li Du and was also upset.
What he was upset was that he had let it go. This look of Juexin seemed simple, but in fact he had a lot of heart, which actually tempted him to tell a secret.
In addition, Mao Juexin knew the existence of the jade carving Tang Chaoyang gave him, and he did know that there was a jade mine hidden on Denai Mountain!
Actually, there is no need to be surprised. The jade carving is obviously a treasure. It may not appear in public, but someone must know it. The legend about it is still circulating within some scope.
However, Li Du didn't know what this jade carving represents, such as what new and old hatreds it involves, and what conflicts it had caused, so he could not admit it.
So he said, "What is Denay Mountain God's Cleuria? Is it a mountain model carved from a good jade?"
Mao Juexin nodded excitedly: "Yes, chalcedony is in your hands? Show me..."
Li Du shook his head: "No, it's not in my hands, I just saw it, and then took a few photos."
As he said that, he raised the cell phone in his hand again.
Mao Juexin reached out to grab it: "Show me, show me this photo, where is the chalcedony? Tell me where is the chalcedony?"
He was very fast, but it was almost delusional to grab the things in Li Du's hands.
Li Du took a step back and put away his phone and said, "Don't worry, it seems that we have encountered many puzzles now. I have you and you have them. Then, let's answer each other."
Mao Juesin thought about it, took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I..."
"I'll ask first," Li Du said, "What's going on with these big ants?"
Mao Juesin said: "I don't know what happened to them either, but my family has always been legendary about them. There is a saying about Denay Mountain God in Wuku Town, and my family thinks this kind of ant is Denay Mountain God!"
Li Du asked: "Why? Do they have any magical abilities?"
Mao Juexin said: "This is the next question. It should be my turn to ask, where did you see the chalcedony?"
Li Du said: "I have a friend who is an adventurer. Once I got a picture of Egypt's gold deposits. He wanted to see it, but he accidentally lost it. Later, in order to compensate for my losses, he asked me to go to his study to choose something, and I saw this jade carving there."
Mao Juexin said anxiously: "Take me to see him, this jade carving belongs to our family..."
"Don't worry, the question, the answer." Li Du smiled, "Come on, continue, what's wrong with this ant? Why is it called the mountain god?"
Mao Juexin said: "This title is rumored. I don't know exactly what's going on. Maybe they are very powerful and have super toxicity..."
Li Du said: "Yes, they are super toxic. An ant bites a person's feet to numb his legs. Those who came to Denay Mountain to look for the jade mine were bitten to death by these ants, right?"
"This is another question." Mao Juexin said vigilantly.
Li Du shook his head: "No, I'm not a question, this is a rhetorical question. I can be sure that they were killed by ants. I can still be sure that ants were led out by you, that is to say, you killed those people!"
Mao Juesin waved his hand angrily: "No, it was not me who killed them. I told them that after dinner, don't stay on the mountain, and don't stay here in the future. In danger, the mountain god will punish those who try to steal his treasures. They don't believe it! They are seeking death by themselves!"
Li Du grabbed a line from his words: "Have supper? Is there something wrong with the supper you provide?"
Mao Jueshin was stunned, then closed his mouth and stopped talking.
Li Du looked at him and said, "It's useless if you don't speak. I know what's going on. Actually, it's not that there's something wrong with the supper you provide, but that there's something wrong with your copper pot and copper stove. They can attract ants."
Mao Juexin looked at him in surprise: "How do you know these?"
Li Du said: "It was also what my adventurer friend told me."
Maumu Juesin frowned, and he thought about it with his teeth as he chewed his fingernails, as if he had encountered something that confused him.
"What are you thinking?" Li Du asked, "I haven't finished asking yet."
The other party ignored him and thought for a while. After Mao Juexin raised his head and said, "Is your adventurer friend the surname Tang? Is he an agile old man?"
Li Du shook his head: "No, he is a young man, younger than me."
Mao Juexin muttered, "That's not right."
Li Du said: "What's wrong?"
Mao Juexin said: "It's nothing. Since you know almost everything, I won't hide it from you. I hope what you said is true, it's really not for the Jade Mine."
Li Du said impatiently: "Why am I lying to you? I came to Wuku Town, it's really not for mining."
Mao Juexin said: "That's good. There is indeed a jade mine in Denay Mountain, but I don't know where it is. The reason why people who came to look for minerals before died was related to me, but I didn't want to protect the minerals so that I could dig them myself. It's not like that, I'm protecting the town because I'm the mayor!"
"You came from Pagan, and you see what Pagan looks like. Before discovering the jade mine, Pagan was the richest and best town within a few hundred miles of surrounding area, and it was almost developing into a city."
"As a result, the jadeite was discovered and the town was destroyed. You see, there are many people in Pagan now, but none of them are authentic Pagan people. The villages of Pagan were destroyed because of jadeite ore. The people of Pagan in the past also died because of jadeite ore."
"I must never let Wuku Town become the next Pagan Town!"
