Why are you trying to steal her destiny? She's the little ancestor of the Xuanmen sect!

Chapter 99 Gold Mine in the Lake

"Sir, I will never dare to offend you again. Please explain this to me. I've already told you, please don't punish me!"

The water ghost looked at Xiao Jiu Jiu with a terrified expression, then pounced on the ground and knelt down in front of her.

Little Nine glanced at it: "You know perfectly well that you can't stay here any longer."

There's no reason to release a captured ghost.

Water Ghost: ...

"Uncle Xie, Uncle Fan, have you caught Chen Jia's ghost over there?"

Since Chen Jia is already dead and the water ghost didn't touch him, his ghost should have been taken away as well.

Fan Wujiu flipped through the booklet: "There's no such person here these past few days. Either he ran away, or his soul has dissipated."

"okay, I get it."

Xiao Jiu Jiu nodded, but some other thoughts were forming in her mind.

The two figures, Black and White Impermanence, exchanged a glance, sealed the water ghost's mouth, and took it away.

Qin Yuhai came up to them and asked, "Xiao Jiu, who were you talking to just now?"

They could only see water ghosts.

As high-ranking Black and White Impermanence, they can conceal themselves.

"Hehe, you wouldn't want to know."

Xiao Jiu Jiu smiled and patted Qin Yu Hai: "Uncle, can I sit on your shoulders and take a look?"

"I'll do it," Qin Yuyang said, rolling up his sleeves.

Seeing this, Qin Yuhai pushed him aside: "Little Jiu Jiu is asking me, what's it to you?"

"How can it not be my business? I'm her father!"

Qin Yuyang did all this simply because he didn't want to be outdone by his uncle, Qin Yuhai.

Little Nine-Nine: ...

Yu Zhinian walked to Xiao Jiu Jiu's side and lowered his eyes: "Let them argue. What do you want to see? I'll help you. Did you find something?"

"I do have a little idea, but I need to look at it from a higher perspective." Xiao Jiu Jiu stroked her chin and looked at Yu Zhi Nian with a smile.

The latter took off his coat and held it, then squatted down: "Come on, I'll show you around."

"it is good."

Xiao Jiu Jiu glanced at the two who were still arguing, and slowly climbed onto Yu Zhi Nian's shoulder.

"Are you holding on tight?" Yu Zhinian asked.

Holding Yu Zhinian's head in her small hands, Xiao Jiujiu said, "Hold on tight."

"Ah."

The originally short potatoes instantly grew into tall green onions.

With her view suddenly wide open, Xiao Jiujiu carefully examined the reservoir and its surroundings.

The reservoir is located in a low-lying area surrounded by high mountains, forming a cave-like structure.

The reservoir is located at the bottom of the cave.

After the two finished fighting, they discovered that Xiao Jiu Jiu already had a new 'mount'.

Little Jiu Jiu sat obediently on Yu Zhinian's shoulder, looking like a large, exquisite doll.

The other person had already thrown the clothes on the ground and was holding Xiao Jiu Jiu's legs with both hands.

A gentle breeze blew, blowing away the wisps of hair on Xiao Jiu Jiu's forehead, making her round face look adorable.

She said in her childish voice, "Brother Yu, this place not only has good feng shui and can attract wealth, but it is also a place to nourish the dead souls."

"Meow~"

[Let me mention the gold mine.]

A hint of a smile appeared in Yu Zhinian's deep eyes as he asked gently, "What else did you discover?"

This little girl is amazing.

She always manages to surprise him.

She must have discovered something to say that.

Xiao Jiujiu then said seriously, "Chen Jia's soul did not go to the underworld, which means that he is either wandering here but we haven't found him, or he has been used by someone."

I did not find his soul here, which suggests that he was used and sacrificed.

Moreover, the feng shui here is excellent, and some people want to use it to raise ghosts and gain wealth.

Xiao Jiujiu, her brows slightly furrowed, glanced at the reservoir.

And that person succeeded; that's probably how the gold mine came about.

Glancing at the reservoir, Xiao Jiujiu asked seriously, "Do you see that small island in the middle of the reservoir?"

Following the direction Little Jiu Jiu and Little Fatty were pointing, Qin Yuhai asked, puzzled, "What's over there? Isn't it just a small island?"

"Of course it's not that simple."

Xiao Jiujiu looked down at him and said seriously, "This small island in the middle has a lot of good stuff hidden in it. It's glittering with gold, so there should be a mineral vein there."

She figured she had made it so obvious that these adults would surely understand.

"What do you mean? I don't see anything wrong with it."

Qin Yuyang also came over, looking suspicious: "Is it the moonlight reflecting on the water that makes you think it's golden?"

"Why is the moon always silvery? How can it be golden?" Little Jiu Jiu rolled her eyes.

Qin Yuhai, standing beside him, nodded in deep agreement: "Looks like my eyesight isn't so good anymore. Well, I guess I'm getting old."

"You're the same age as me," Qin Yuyang added quietly.

They're twins, no matter what, so how much better can one be than the other!

Qin Yuhai gave a slight smile: "Sorry, I look much younger than you."

The two brothers were secretly competing with each other, and they were particularly at odds.

"Little Jiu Jiu, what can you find on the island?" Yu Zhinian asked curiously.

After getting off Yu Zhinian's shoulder, Xiao Jiujiu said seriously, "There really is a vein there, it's a gold mine."

"How can this be..."

Qin Yuyang naturally didn't believe that his daughter could point to a gold mine anywhere.

Even if you're incredibly capable, you can't be that capable!

If it's that advanced, why would it need scientific instruments?

“If Xiao Jiu says it’s true, then it is. Don’t discourage her if you don’t believe her.”

Qin Yuhai glanced coldly at Qin Yuyang, then looked at Yu Zhinian: "What do you say, Captain Yu?"

"Of course I believe Xiao Jiu."

Yu Zhinian's words made Xiao Jiujiu's eyes light up.

Qin Yuyang & Qin Yuhai: How cunning!

"Hmph, only Brother Yu believes me, none of you do." Xiao Jiujiu snorted at the two of them, clearly dissatisfied.

"I will send someone to investigate. If it really exists, we will also need to conduct geological surveys, water quality tests, ecological assessments, and other procedures."

Only then can one decide whether or not to dig it open.

If the water here doesn't meet drinking standards, then we'll start mining.

Yu Zhinian said calmly.

This reservoir is not small; several surrounding villages rely on its water for drinking.

Furthermore, some of the water available in the market originates from this reservoir. If it becomes polluted, a new water source must be found.

Xiao Jiu Jiu nodded repeatedly: "Yes, there are corpses and water ghosts in the water here, so we can't drink it anymore."

People in the past didn't know there were water ghosts in there, but now that the bodies have been dug out, the water is no longer safe.

"What if you really want to drink it?" Qin Yuyang asked curiously.

Xiao Jiu Jiu looked at him with a hint of doubt: "If you really want to drink it, then I won't stop you."

Anyway, drinking this water will bring bad luck. If you don't believe me, Dad can go and take a sip first.

Remembering the ugly creature that had just crawled out of the water, Qin Yuyang immediately fell silent.

That thing is disgusting.

He simply couldn't bring himself to drink water that had been touched by that thing; it was disgusting.

Qin Yuhai scoffed, "Why did you have to ask that question?"

"It's none of your business." Qin Yuyang waved his hand and stopped looking at him.

Yu Zhinian got up and walked to the blockade, telling the police on the scene: "Notify your captain to block off the water source here and prohibit private water plants from drawing water from here."

The surrounding villagers stopped coming here to swim.

"Are there any other leads regarding Chen Jia's social connections? Has his family been notified? Why haven't they arrived yet?"

"it is good."

After taking notes, the staff member nodded to Yu Zhinian: "I will report the situation to the team leader."

“Okay, I look forward to a successful first collaboration.” Nodding to him, Yu Zhinian returned to Xiao Jiu Jiu’s side.

Xiao Jiu Jiu patted her belly and glanced at the time: "The matter here is temporarily resolved, let's go back."

"Ah."

Walking up to Qin Yuyang, Xiao Jiujiu winked at him.

Qin Yuyang: ?

"What's wrong, Xiao Jiu? Are your eyes twitching?" Qin Yuyang asked, puzzled.

Little Jiu Jiu stomped her foot angrily: "You stinky dad, have you forgotten something?"

"what?"

Qin Yuyang looked completely bewildered, clearly unaware of what Xiao Jiujiu was talking about.

His speechless expression made Xiao Jiu Jiu even angrier.

Little Jiu Jiu puffed out her cheeks, her beautiful eyes filled with dissatisfaction, and said angrily, "You stinky dad, you don't remember at all, do you? You don't keep your word!"

You promised to take me out for barbecue!

"Oh, right, right! That's right!" Qin Yuyang came to his senses and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

He really didn't expect that even at this point, Xiao Jiu Jiu would still remember about eating barbecue.

"Hmph, you don't remember!"

Xiao Jiu Jiu's eyes darted around, and she pretended to be fierce as she said, "I knew you'd forgotten! You said you'd take me to eat grilled fish, grilled chicken wings, grilled chicken legs, grilled sausages, ham sausages, and hot dogs..."

She rattled off more than a dozen different kinds of barbecue, then put her hands on her hips and said, "If you don't agree, I'm going to make a scene!"

Qin Yuyang opened his mouth.

Before she could even speak, Qin Yuhai, who was standing next to her, started making sarcastic remarks: "Oh, Xiao Jiu, look at you, your dad doesn't even care about you. He doesn't even remember the promise he made to you..."

Qin Yuyang: ...

I would really appreciate it!

He glared at Qin Yuhai and said fiercely, "Shut up!"

Not wanting to deal with his troublesome younger brother, Qin Yuyang turned his gaze to Yu Zhinian, hoping he would say a few words on his behalf.

Yu Zhinian lived up to everyone's expectations and walked up to Xiao Jiu Jiu. He squatted down, a smile playing on his lips, and said gently, "Xiao Jiu, don't be angry. How about your brother takes you to eat barbecue?"

Qin Yuyang: You little rascal, you're pulling this stunt?

“Great! Daddy and Uncle will go together! Brother Yu will treat, you guys pay!” Little Jiu Jiu’s eyes sparkled, she was clearly overjoyed.

Seeing this, Qin Yuhai nodded: "No problem, Uncle keeps his word, unlike some people~"

Qin Yuyang (someone): ...

It turns out that people can actually laugh for no reason when they're speechless.

"Let's go, it's my treat today." Qin Yuyang walked out helplessly.

Little Jiu Jiu clapped her hands with a big smile, "Yay!"

Let's have some barbecue! (*￣︶￣)

As night deepened, tranquility returned to the reservoir.

Only the occasional croaking of frogs and chirping of insects echoed in the silent night sky.

Ripples spread across the water near the small island in the middle of the reservoir.

Glug, glug, something is bubbling up from the water...
