The two of them swallowed at the same time. Reason told them that their lives were almost in danger, so they should not be too curious.

Isn't it usually like this? If you know too much, you'll have no way to survive?

But their mouths and heads nodded faster than their brains, "I want to know."

After saying that, the two of them looked at each other, their eyes were filled with: It's over! It's over! It's completely over now!

Seeing them look as if the sky was falling, Jiang Zhenguo laughed.

"Look at what you have done. I've already said that Ah Yan is not a murderer. How can I, a cadre, conspire with a murderer?"

Jiang Zhenguo's words brought Du Hongri and Wang Dongfang back to their senses instantly. Yes, Grandpa Jiang was the old secretary of their Shannan, and he was dedicated to the people. How could he possibly work with the bad guys to harm the good people?

It turns out that they are imagining too much. Have they misunderstood?

But after the conversation they just had, how could a good person not be scared?

For a moment, the fear in my heart subsided a lot, and was replaced by more doubts and confusion.

The two looked at Mo Yan anxiously, "Aunt Mo Yan, we, we don't think you are a murderer, we just, we just think--"

I thought about it for a long time, but couldn't figure out what was going on.

Fortunately, Mo Yan didn’t really wait for them to explain.

He just smiled faintly, "Don't be nervous, those are just trivial matters. After all, you are just ordinary people. When you hear something you don't understand, you will definitely make up your mind. It is understandable that you are afraid."

Du Hongri and Wang Dongfang nodded quickly. Aunt Mo Yan was still so considerate.

Why do they think that Aunt Mo Yan, who is so gentle, would go out and kill someone?

"Actually, I also have some responsibility for what happened in Shenmu County."

Originally, Jiang Zhenguo was blaming himself at the beginning. Finally, Jiang Zhenguo stopped blaming himself and got angry. Now, Mo Yan is blaming himself again?

Du Hongri and Wang Dongfang now have psychological shadows of conditioned reflex when they hear the bosses start to blame themselves.

"Aunt Mo Yan, what does this have to do with you? Please stop blaming yourself. Really, if you say that, Wang Dongfang and I will start to get scared again. Grandpa Jiang was like that just now. He just finished blaming himself and then got angry!"

"Ha ha!"

Mo Yan burst out laughing.

"Okay, then I won't lay the groundwork. I'll just get straight to the point. Aren't you curious about why all the mines in Shenmu County disappeared overnight?"

Du Hongri and Wang Dongfang widened their eyes.

"Isn't it because of the natural disaster and heavy rain that the mines in our county sank very deep underground?"

"Do you believe this? You are all college students, you should be able to think independently. Let me ask you, the whole province was flooded that year, have you ever seen a county like your Shenmu County, where the entire mine sank to the bottom and disappeared, but the ground in your county is still there?"

"If what you said is true, and the mines have sunk to a very deep place and cannot be dug up, then won't your Shenmu County become a bottomless abyss? And then be filled up by floods, and there will no longer be a Shenmu County. From now on, perhaps calling it Shenmu Lake will be more realistic?"

"Uh-huh!"

Du Hongri and Wang Dongfang were both dumbfounded.

This aspect has never been discussed before.

Yes, if the mines had sunk deep into the earth's crust, why are there still mountains and soil in Shenmu County? Shouldn't they have sunk?

"Then, is there a possibility that the mine sank and then squeezed the soil under the earth's crust and pushed it up? That's why there is still soil in our county and there are several more hills?"

Wang Dongfang's bold guess and careful verification made Mo Yan laugh.

"Student Wang, let me remind you that six years ago it was the heavy rain that caused the floods, not the crustal movement that caused the earthquake. Even if it was an earthquake, it would only cause the ground to collapse. Have you ever seen an earthquake that lifted up several mountains?"

"You have also studied geography. What is the movement that arches up the mountain called? It is called plate movement. Two adjacent crustal plates collide with each other due to crustal movement, squeezing out towering mountains. Do you think that the heavy rain six years ago also triggered the collision of plates?"

Wang Dongfang was so embarrassed that he almost felt ashamed.

"So, Aunt Mo Yan, do you know what the reason is?"

Du Hongri asked quickly. She didn't want to guess anymore. She just wanted to know the answer.

"Of course I know! Because I did it!"

Mo Yan nodded without hesitation, as if he was not going to stop until his words shocked others.

Wang Dongfang and Du Hongri: …

"You don't believe it!"

Can you believe this?

This is even less reliable than what Wang Dongfang said just now that plate tectonic movement occurred in Shenmu County!

"Your Shenmu County used to be barren, but there are mines. Where did those mines come from? Not to mention you, even the ancestors who have lived on this land for hundreds of years probably can't tell. A place where not even a decent tree can grow, but it is called Shenmu County, have you never thought about the reason?"

"Uh--"

"But, but we have many trees now." Du Hongri said weakly.

"Yes, I planted it. Six years ago, the flood in Shannan did not recede and the entire province was flooded. I was eager to solve this problem. It happened that at that time, I accidentally got a seed of a sacred tree. The seed said that it wanted to settle in your Shenmu County."

"I planted it in your Shenmu County. The energy from the underground mines is the energy it needs to absorb to grow. So your mines disappeared, not because they sank deep into the earth's crust, but because they were absorbed by the Shenmu tree. After the Shenmu tree obtained the energy that broke through the ground, it naturally grew into a towering tree."

"Hence, the name of your Shenmu County finally lived up to its name. And when the Shenmu tree was born, all the grasses and trees would naturally grow together. Even if you were only eleven or twelve years old at that time, you should still have an impression of it. When the flood completely receded, did you find that your hometown had undergone earth-shaking changes?"

"The entire Shenmu County is covered with green plants?"

Du Hongri and Wang Dong looked at each other. Yes, they found that although Aunt Mo Yan was not at the scene, the situation she described now was exactly the same as what they had seen that year.

and so--

So what Aunt Mo Yan said is true?

The reason why their Shenmu County has changed so much is because she planted the seeds of a sacred tree in their hometown?

But, but, but how could such a thing be so unbelievable?

"As for the fact that the air in Shenmu County could cure chronic diseases in ordinary people in the first three months, I didn't know about it. I guess Jianmu himself might not know it. When I go to Shenmu County this time, I will ask him in person how he did it."

"If this hadn't happened, the elders in your county wouldn't have treated the entire Shenmu County as if it were their own territory, worrying every day that others would take advantage of your county. In the end, it's all selfishness at work!"
