Dressed like a real daughter, she leads a billionaire CEO to abuse a wealthy family

Chapter 677 Source of pollution

"Boss Ye, this corridor is poisonous and has low visibility. It's unlucky to see it."

The thin monkey hesitated and was obviously reluctant to choose this path, so he tried to persuade him.

But Ye Lan shook his head.

"You are treasure hunting, I am here to solve the water system virus. This road is connected to the water system outside. It is a clue."

In the beginning, their goals were the same.

But now, after seeing a priceless stone figurine in front of them, most people started to think about making money again.

Since there is no danger, as long as you get the treasure in the cave and go out, you will not be able to fly freely and happily.

"You can go wherever you fall in love, but don't drag me into the water."

Someone was the first to buy into a clean channel and left without looking back.

Most of it was gone in one go, leaving the big man with a broken arm hesitating and choosing to stay.

"Hehe, I see you really want to wash your hands in the golden basin." Shouhou winked at him and teased.

The big man spat at him and raised his arms to show him, "What can I do if I don't return it?"

In a profession, missing arms and legs, including loss of life, are common occurrences.

The thin monkey didn't take it seriously, put his arm around his shoulders and said with a smile: "You are lucky now, you are right to follow Boss Ye."

Hearing this, the big man was speechless and took out a new type of gas mask from his bag and put it on.

After getting ready, the group walked into the thick fog.

The fog here is dozens of times thicker than in the valley. The flashlight can't even illuminate half a meter, and the surroundings are black with ink.

Everyone took every step cautiously, not daring to let out any air, but the amazing thing was that they didn't encounter any danger until the very end.

The flashlight illuminated a stone door in front of him. Someone next to him fumbled a few times to find the mechanism and opened it successfully.

Along with the friction sound of the stone door and the ground, what came into view was a huge underground palace.

There are tens of thousands of stone figurines here, dozens of times larger than those outside. They are all kneeling and worshiping, extremely pious.

When we got here, there was only a thin layer of fog left, and the line of sight became wider. So everyone walked in and admired the huge main chamber of the tomb.

"I didn't expect that by chance, we were able to find the place first." The big man with a broken arm looked around and was surprised by the burial objects here.

Then his backpack sank, and when he turned around, he saw Slender Monkey stuffing a stone lantern behind him.

The workmanship of the lamp was not exquisite, but the age alone was enough to fetch a sky-high price. Especially the lamp oil inside was slippery and sticky. It had not dried up for thousands of years. It looked like corpse oil at first glance.

This stuff also has a price but no market.

He saw Shouhou put all the small items into their bags, and subconsciously looked at where Ye Lan and the others were, and lowered his voice and said, "Can you do this?"

Any fool can see that the young girl is in charge here.

"It's okay. Boss Ye doesn't like these things. He said it when he came in. As long as we don't cause trouble, we can take whatever we want." Thin Monkey gave him a reassuring look.

The big man looked at the other side and saw that no one really cared, so he lowered his head to sort things out, feeling puzzled at the same time.

What is the origin of this girl with such ridiculously high cultivation level?

At this time, Ye Lan and his party had already passed through the prostrate stone figurines and reached the round platform surrounded in the middle.

There is a large cauldron more than ten meters high placed on the stage. It is also made of rock. The contents inside cannot be seen from the bottom up.

"Do you think this scene is a bit familiar?"

Xie Chenan looked around and said with a strange expression.

Yin Rujin also saw the clues, frowned and said: "It is the content on the mural. All people worship, the coffin of the tomb owner is placed on it, and this is the altar. It seems that after death, the tomb owner is still carrying out sacrificial activities."

When alive, this kind of sacrifice was weird and evil, let alone now dead, doing such things in the tomb... Especially when they looked at the big cauldron in front of them, and thought of the people who were put in to be boiled one by one on the murals, I just felt instantly creepy.

Suddenly, Sheng Nan's voice came from the other side.

"Look, what is this?"

Everyone followed the sound and found a crack on one side of the cauldron. A black viscous liquid was seeping out from inside, and an unpleasant stench filled the air.

"This smell is very similar to that in the underground river." Wu Heng covered his mouth and nose, and observed closely: "There is grease and blood, it should be the corpse being boiled and rotten."

Hearing this, Yin Rujin and Sheng Nan both took a few steps back, tilted their heads and couldn't help retching.

Ye Lan frowned as he looked at the thin crack and the black liquid seeping into the soil, forming a small puddle on the ground.

"This should be the source of the pollution. Seven years ago, the earth's veins shattered the sacrificial tripod, and the broth carrying the virus thousands of years ago leaked, causing a disaster."

The formation of the fog in the Ghost Valley and the cancer in Baquan Town were all caused by this.

Ye Lan immediately sealed the gap with a charm to prevent the black liquid from flowing out, and then asked Sheng Nan to try his best to drain the black liquid from the soil and fill it with mineral water bottles.

Yin Rujin carefully put the bottle into her backpack.

The ancient viruses among them also have considerable research value.

"Now that the source of pollution is blocked, the groundwater system should slowly return to normal. If everything goes well, the original samples can be used to produce interpretation medicine, and the residents of the town will be saved."

"Yeah." Ye Lan nodded slightly. For safety reasons, he built a barrier around the round platform to prevent the cauldron from leaking again in the event of a collapse.

After doing this, the mission is basically over.

Yin Rujin breathed a sigh of relief, with a rare sincere smile on his face.

"Miss Ye, thank you for your help on this trip."

It has to be said that she had a good impression of Ye Lan when they first met in Yeguang City.

Even though the other person was not very old at the time, he still felt so secure.

Ye Lan did not relax his vigilance. He glanced at her and said, "Let's go out first."

"it is good."

Everyone made a mark.

Because they were not serious officials, Ye Lan and Yin Rujin didn't care about the actions of Shouhou and others.

As we walked out, the group of people behind us had a great harvest, including some electric eels.

"I don't know what treasure the other group took..." He muttered to others while studying the object in his hand.

Then I heard the sound of chaotic footsteps and rapid low calls coming from the thick fog ahead.

"Don't, don't come here!" Several people walked through the fog and fell at their feet in an instant. One of them had a face covered in blood, and his arms were so bone-white that he could hardly hold the gas mask. He lay on the ground tremblingly and begged them for help, "Yes, there is a monster..."

monster.

Ye Lan and his party immediately entered a state of alert.

Yin Rujin helped the person aside and found that the other person's wound was a bit strange, so he raised his eyes and said to Ye Lan: "The teeth marks from eating them look like human ones."

Human teeth?

"No." Hong Qing on the side suddenly interrupted and denied: "What I heard was the sound of a snake."

"Snake?" Sheng Nan narrowed his eyes and stared at her dangerously, "Didn't you say that the giant snake has been killed by you? A giant snake of this size dominates the mountain. How can you allow a second snake king to survive here? .”

"This..." Hong Qing was speechless for a moment.

Because what Sheng Nan said is true.

But she clearly heard the sound of snakes crawling.
