Wu Qi calmly said, "Old sir, if you still have reservations, then hundreds of miners will die because of you. Have you thought about the consequences?"

"Our Spirit Hall has sent many powerful experts here, not for sightseeing. You must believe that the Spirit Hall will seek justice for you for everything you have experienced."

In these remote areas, the Spirit Hall holds a very high position in the hearts of the people.

Chen San was not lying, but he couldn't help asking, "Why did we die?"

He Niannian wanted to explain, but Wu Qi stopped her.

Whether an Ordinary Person could remain calm after learning about such a major event is still an open question.

Once we return to the Mine Mountain, if we show any weakness, everything will be over.

In the end, Chen San told the truth.

He worked in the Mine Mountain for many years and, unintentionally, he was able to observe many things.

First, there are multiple hidden sentry posts around the Mine Mountain.

Every time he went home to visit his family, he would be questioned by these undercover sentries.

Without Mine Overseer's Approval Document, being caught could result in broken legs at best, and death at worst.

Chen San had returned home to visit his family many times. There were six hidden sentry posts, and he knew exactly where they were. Every time he came down the mountain, he would take the initiative to find them and show them the documents.

There were also three groups of people who didn't seem to have fixed outposts, but were patrolling below the Mine Mountain.

"So, there are at least nine outposts?"

Chen San shook his head and said repeatedly, "It's definitely more than that. Every time I go down the mountain, I take the same route. My coworkers go in a different direction, but they always encounter more sentries than I do."

According to him, there are three routes down the mountain from the Mine Mountain.

There are six hidden sentries and three patrol teams at each exit.

The entire Mine Mountain was then completely surrounded by Patrol Team, making it impossible for Ordinary Person to escape.

However, now that the New Mountain Sect wants to destroy the Mine Mountain, the number of sentries must be reduced. After all, they also have to consider the evacuation of their own people.

Next, Wu Qi faced the Qiangu Changkong and made arrangements, "You are a new face; when you enter the Mine Mountain, there will definitely be sentries questioning you. At that time, you should quietly sprinkle this packet of Darklight Powder on the ground."

The two had a pre-arranged code; Qiangu Changkong Wu Qi needed to do was leave a corresponding mark on the ground, and he would know how many people there were.

This Darklight Powder is the pollen of a certain Immortal Herb, and without the Immortal Herb itself, it is completely invisible to the human eye.

"If all goes well, you'll enter the Mine Mountain tonight and find a group capable of stopping the miners' evacuation. At dawn, I'll lead a large force to provide support. At that time, your two grandfathers will parachute into the Mine Mountain to work with you from the inside."

With everything arranged, all that remains is to wait for Qiangu Changkong's actions.

Chen San was initially reluctant to lead people to the Mine Mountain. The New Mountain Sect had strict control over outsiders, and no new miners had joined in recent years.

But he was willing to believe that the Spirit Hall would seek justice for them.

Therefore, he decided to bring Qiangu Changkong with him and see what the Mine Overseer thought once they got to the Mine Mountain.

When the two were about two kilometers from the foot of the Mine Mountain, a group of people jumped out of Wooden House under the snow and surrounded them.

The leader recognized Chen San and sneered, "Chen San, don't you know the mine's rules? Who gave you permission to bring outsiders in without authorization?"

Chen San knelt down with a thud and repeated Wu Qi's explanation, "Gentlemen, my nephew is a good-for-nothing at home, and he gets into fights every day."

"My Older Sister's family is almost driven crazy by him."

"When I went home to visit my family this time, my Older Sister knelt before me and told me to bring my unruly nephew to the mine to temper his temper."

Qiangu Changkong snorted lightly, pointed with his right finger, and cursed, "Those two good-for-nothings, Ah Zhao's dad bought him a Soul Tool this year. My damn parents."

As he raised his hand to point the finger, Darklight Powder was unknowingly scattered on the ground.

Seeing how realistic their performance was, the sentry was unsure for a moment.

After a long silence, the leader waved his hand, "Let him go. Whether or not we agree to let him join the Mine Mountain depends on whether the mine manager is willing."

As the two left, a hint of pity rose in the eyes of the sentries.

It's better that Qiangu Changkong died in the mine; at least his "parents" won't be dragged down by this good-for-nothing son anymore.

"By the way, brother, A-Feng and the others went out to chase after someone the night before last, why haven't they come back yet?"

A-Feng was the leader of the squad that was chasing He Niannian. When they came down the mountain, he certainly didn't dare to tell the truth. In addition, He Niannian did not take the usual route but jumped off the cliff. When the sentries saw that someone was chasing them, they stopped interfering.

The leader scoffed, "Those guys A-Feng and his gang, all think with their lower bodies. They finally get to come down the mountain, so naturally they want to find a brothel to have some fun."

"Everyone, stand your last shift. In a couple of days, we'll be free. Where can't we go after that?"

Along the way, Qiangu Changkong clearly sensed that the number of hidden sentries was less than Chen San had said.

There was a hidden sentry post every kilometer at the foot of the mountain, but on the way up the mountain, apart from encountering a Patrol Team, no other hidden sentries were seen.

Wu Qi's guess was correct; the New Mountain Sect had indeed withdrawn a large number of its personnel.

As expected, under Chen San's accusations, Qiangu Changkong successfully joined the ranks of miners.

He was then driven into the Mine Mountain.

He Niannian had told him beforehand that one of the miners was named Zhu Wusi.

This Zhu Wusi attended Soul Master Academy in his early years, but later, lacking the money to acquire his First Spirit Ring, he had no choice but to work odd jobs.

According to He Niannian, this person not only has excellent handwriting, but also possesses organizational and leadership skills.

Next, leading the miners out of the Mine Mountain —wouldn't the situation be extremely chaotic without a leader?

Even if Qiangu Changkong had leadership qualities, the miners didn't know him, so who would be willing to follow his orders?

At this time, it is especially important to find a group of leaders among the miners.

After asking a question, Chen San whispered, "Zhu Wusi is in the same work team as us."

These past few days, New Mountain Sect hasn't assigned any mining tasks, so the miners have been sitting in the passageway chatting idly.

People from the same work team will naturally sit together.

When Chen San took the Qiangu Changkong with him, it did not attract the attention of any Mine Overseer.

Qiangu Changkong remained unrestrained on the surface, but his words forced Zhu Wusi to take them seriously.

"I am a member of the Spirit Hall. The New Mountain Sect will blow up the Mine Mountain and bury you all."

"I need your help to organize the miners during the evacuation."

Qiangu Changkong Kong spoke very softly, only the two of them could hear it.

Zhu Wusi, having attended Soul Master Academy, always harbored a dream of doing great things.

Hearing what Qiangu Changkong Chang Kong said, he immediately realized that the opportunity to do something great was right in front of him!

"How can I cooperate with you?" Zhu Wusi asked hurriedly.

Qiangu Changkong said, "Relax, don't be nervous. Later, find some people with leadership qualities and tell them about this."

"Then, coordinate well with our operation, and remember not to give anything away."

"The lives of these hundreds of miners rest on our shoulders!"
