Chapter 215 Bamboo Huts Built in the Valley, Mine Collapses

Strolling through the valley, the air is fresh and pleasant, and the warm breeze feels wonderful, instantly making you feel refreshed.

As the sun rises, the thin mist that permeates the valley gradually dissipates, revealing the scenery hidden behind it. Every scene is like a finely crafted work of art, making one marvel at the wonders of nature.

The area is covered in lush green grass, with hillsides, lakes, and a bamboo grove in the distance.

Wenwen suddenly asked Wen Chengxi, "Third Brother, where would be a good place to build a house?"

When Wen Chengxi was suddenly mentioned, he looked up and circled the valley, his eyes following the direction where the sunlight shone the most. His sixth sense told him that that was the most suitable spot.

He turned and ran up a small hill a few hundred meters away from the bamboo forest. After stopping, he opened his arms and shouted, "This is the best place. It faces the lake, backs onto the mountain, and is the best spot to greet the sunrise. Uncle, this is it!"

"Okay, Sanlang, we'll listen to you."

Wenwen pointed to the bamboo forest in the distance, "Daddy, let's build a bamboo house."

"Okay, let's get started once we buy the tools." Wen Qilin looked around and saw the sun high in the sky.

"Let's go back and try to go into town to buy tools today."

"it is good."

This is where their home will be, and everyone is eager to move in as soon as possible.

The group followed the same route out and arrived at the bottom of the cliff.

Wen Chengjian: "Father, we can come down from this cliff, but what about Grandmother and Mother?"

Wen Chengbin: "Uncle, do we need to get some ladders, ropes, or something?"

Wenwen looked up at the high cliff.

This is a real problem; it takes them a lot of effort to come down from the top of the cliff, and those who don't have enough spiritual power can't hold on until the end.

The child can be carried down, but how do the grandmother and mother get down?

Where would you find a rope or ladder that long on such a high cliff, unless...

unless......

transit station!

Yes, it's a transit station!

"I have a solution."

With her spiritual energy flowing into her hand, Wenwen created a fireball in her palm and hurled it at the stone wall.

boom!

Crackling!

Boom!dong dong!

A dent appeared in the rock face, and the loose rocks fell directly to the bottom of the cliff.

A fireball spell revealed her intentions to everyone.

"Okay, let's join too."

As soon as they finished speaking, the group threw fireballs at the crater.

Fortunately, everyone is practicing this basic spell, and its power varies.

A moment later, a small cave that could accommodate about ten people was smashed open.

Wen Chengfeng walked around inside the cave, praising it highly, "Wow, it's really great."

"Then continue."

"Okay!"

Following the same method, a small cave was dug out every few dozen meters, winding its way up until it reached the top of the cliff. There were about twenty caves in total.

Each cave entrance was covered by branches and pebbles, making it impossible to spot without careful observation.

Wen Qilin looked at everyone's masterpieces with satisfaction, "Alright, let's go back."

The group followed the route they had come from. It took them an hour to get there, but less than half that time to return.

When they were still some distance from the hilltop of Wangjia Village, Wenwen looked at the surrounding mountains and an idea popped into her head.

"Father, shouldn't our Wen family also occupy a mountain? Otherwise, how will we explain ourselves at the end of the month?"

Wen Qilin chuckled and scolded, "You silly child, what do you mean by 'monopolizing'?"

Wen Chengjian: "Sister, your choice of words is not quite appropriate."

Wen Chengbin: "Sister, we are mining. Mining is a more elegant word."

Wen Chengxi: "Little sister, girls should speak politely."

Hey, three against one.

Wen Chengfeng opposed the bullying of the weak, saying, "Sister, don't listen to them. Just call it 'occupation,' and your fourth brother supports you."

Wenwen...

Fourth brother, what a warm-hearted brother! She was a little touched. What's going on?

Oh my, her good assistant hasn't forgotten his original intention and still remembers to support her.

Wenwen suddenly felt playful. "Fourth Brother, let's go for a walk and see which mountain is the best to take over."

As the words faded, Wenwen pulled Wenchengfeng up, and the brother and sister disappeared in a flash.

When Wenwen passed by this area in the morning, she had tried to use her exploration skill to investigate, but the skill was not very accurate. She only knew that there were indeed minerals in these mountains, but she did not know the specific locations or details.

Wenwen and Wenchengfeng stopped in front of a low hill.

Several people had caught up from behind.

"So, are you sure about this mountain?" Wen Chengbin shouted from afar.

Wenwen wasn't too sure either, "Why not give it a try? What if it works?"

Wen Chengjian said, "Sister, let us go. You can rest for a bit."

The three older brothers seemed to be trying to compensate and appease him.

Wen Chengjian and his brothers unleashed a barrage of fireballs at the low hill.

Rumble!

Rumble!

boom!Boom!

The sound of rubble breaking and tumbling down echoed in my ears.

Dust suddenly billowed up from the low hillside, filling the nearby sky and obscuring the view.

After the dust and smoke dissipated, sand and gravel rolled all over the ground.

"Father, look, are these the ones?"

“Uncle, look, these stones are almost identical to those from the Wang family’s place. They must be iron ore.”

Wen Qilin told the truth, "My uncle can't tell the difference. Take some back and let that elder in the Wang family help identify it."

Without saying a word, the group estimated the amount and put some into their respective storage bags.

The sun was setting in the west; it was past noon.

Wen Qilin decided, "Alright, let's go back. We still need to go into town to buy tools."

The group started running and soon arrived near Wangjiashan.

"what--"

"Waaaah—my son—"

"Help! Help! Save my child!"

Suddenly, a cry for help came from ahead.

Wenwen stopped in her tracks, fearing she was hallucinating. "Father, did you hear something?"

"It sounds like someone is calling for help."

As doubt arose, Wenwen immediately activated her investigative skills, "Over at Wangjiashan."

With the same goal in mind, the group headed towards Wangjiashan.

Wenwen ran in the lead, exploring as she went.

Oh no, something's happened at the mine near Wangjiashan.

A moment later, the group arrived at the front of the square.

All that could be seen were three large mountains, with boulders rolling down them. The square was now littered with stones of all sizes, and the crowd was in disarray due to the rubble, with shouts and cries filling the air.

Those who narrowly avoided the stones reacted quickly, moving away from the square. Those who were able even helped those nearby.

Those hit by stones, as long as they can still move, drag their injured legs and try their best to get away from the square.

Those who are not fast enough or unlucky enough will be crushed by stones, their fate unknown.

The square was a scene of utter devastation; the chaotic state of affairs was shocking to behold.

Wen Qilin didn't have time to think about anything else and gave the order, "Go and help, quick!"

Wenwen, Wenchengjian, and their siblings rushed towards the square, disregarding everything.
