381 The Mystery in the River

"No." Lin Changxi shook his head: "The remaining people were mobilized by Zhuang Weizhe, and Lord Sikong also assisted. If the deployment is appropriate, there will be no problem."

Lin Chu's eyes flashed slightly, and he was a little surprised by Zhuang Weizhe's change, but he didn't delve into it deeply.

Then, he turned his head and looked at Yao Xianxian: "Let's go."

"Where's the plum branch?" Shi Feifei tilted her head and looked inside the government office.

"I didn't see her, she probably went somewhere else." Lin Chu said calmly: "Time waits for no one, hurry up and leave!"

Several people got on their horses, whipped their horses and galloped away.

Yao Xianxian took the lead and led everyone through the woods and alleys away from the pipeline.

All around, the number of people gradually dwindled, and suddenly high mountains appeared, and the road became increasingly steep and difficult to navigate. Yao Xianxian abandoned his horse and walked up the mountain with others.

Lin Chu approached him: "Are you doubting Dan Qing?"

When they were at the government office, Danqing asked them where they were going. Yao Xianxian left without saying a word, clearly not trusting him.

"Before the matter becomes clear, everyone is worthy of suspicion." Yao Xianxian's eyes were cold and she said slowly: "The less people know where we are going, the less dangerous it will be."

Lin Chu glanced at him. Yao Xianxian's words were not directed at anyone in particular, but they included everyone as a target of suspicion. What had he experienced in the past to develop his cautious and suspicious temperament now?

"We're here." Yao Xianxian suddenly stopped and glanced around quickly.

In front of you is a small village in the high mountains. The village is not big and scattered on the mountainside.

"There are river workers living here, so we have found the right place," he said.

Lin Chu's eyebrows moved slightly. Could it be that what he saw in front of him was not a village, but the Water Department Office? It didn't look like it.

There is no mark here on the river distribution map just now.

Yao Xianxian did not explain, but led everyone up the mountain road for less than a mile when they suddenly heard the deafening roar of the water.

It is different from the gentleness of the Lingshui River in Shangjing, and also different from the turbulent undercurrents of the Fenghe River tributaries. The water flow here is very fast, and the terrain is steep. It feels like the river water is coming from the sky in a trance, rolling down and filling the sky with mist. The momentum is amazing.

"What a huge amount of water!" Everyone was shocked.

"The terrain here is high, and the river should have been divided here after rushing down from the mountain. Part of it flowed into Fengshui County, and part of it merged into Shangjing. But..."

Yao Xianxian frowned, and then her eyes became cold and stern: "The river is here and rushing downstream. If things go on like this, the Lingshui River will be overwhelmed, and the bank will burst only day or night."

"Why is there no mark on the river map for such a dangerous terrain?" Lin Chu frowned.

Yao Xianxian's eyes darkened: "I'm just afraid..."

I'm afraid there is an ulterior purpose hidden in it! This is why he refused to reveal even a single word after reading the map.

Lin Chu's eyes flashed slightly, Lin Zhi had thought carefully and luckily brought him here.

This place is isolated from heaven and earth, and cannot be found on the map. No one will find it except Yao Xianxian.

If someone really tampered with this place, it would be impossible to prevent it.

"Rush to the source immediately." Lin Chu stared, without any delay!

The mountain road was rugged and slippery. It took some effort to find the source.

"That's right there." Yao Xianxian suddenly stretched out her hand and pointed.

There are two sluices directly ahead where the current flows the fastest. One of them is tightly closed, causing the raging river water to pour down from the other side of the river.

"Open the sluice gates on both sides and the crisis downstream will be resolved."

Lin Chu nodded: "Let's do it."

"Who is it? Stop!" Suddenly a sharp whistle resounded through the sky.

A group of people came from the forest, each with dark skin and a cold light in their eyes.
