The water level has dropped quite a bit?

Li Zhiyuan closed his eyes again, recalling the image in his mind.

He actively turned the image dynamic, and the water level rose, rose, and rose again.

Suddenly, Li Zhiyuan was stunned.

Merely by raising the water level, submerging parts of the surrounding areas and small hills, the entire Feng Shui pattern instantly became a standard "Simple Moon Wax and Wane".

During the waxing and waning, it gathers the essence of the mountains and forests, like the lungs of a person, exhaling the old and absorbing the new.

This is an auspicious location; according to the "Liu's Qi Observation Technique", it is a place most favored by mountain spirits and wild charms, who leverage the forces of nature to nurture themselves.

He was merely passing by and couldn't possibly spend his time constantly doing arithmetic with the scenery, so he just overlooked it.

If he had passed by before the construction started, he would've immediately recognized that the lake was a very good spot.

Not suitable for burials, but suitable for nurturing people; if the elderly lived here for long, it could extend their lives, known as an ideal place for retirement.

Such a good place is only still "wild" in the mountains.

If it were in a place like Luoyang, any decent Feng Shui spot would be quickly excavated, with layers of tombs... good spots have long been crammed into collective accommodations.

Compared to the Feng Shui pattern of that lake, the Feng Shui uniqueness at the hydropower station site is nothing; it might even be a deliberate setup by the Old Transgender to create a maze and divert attention.

Most likely, she buried an ancient corpse with funeral aura beneath the construction site.

She was fishing in this manner.

The Feng Shui Masters hired by the construction units were amateurs, who came up with a bunch of things but still couldn't even find the fake bait.

The elder from the Miao village discovered it and sent three of his disciples to solve the issue, only for them to be dealt with by the Old Transgender in turn.

She is genuinely cautious.

Li Zhiyuan was very curious about what she was actually afraid of.

Is she afraid of the Heavenly Dao?

But based on her behavior, it doesn't seem like it.

Evil beings' fear of the Heavenly Dao should be reflected in their "presence," but her presence is exceptionally strong; she just hasn't resorted to mass slaughter.

It seems as though something unseen but close at hand forces her to exercise restraint in this regard.

"Brother Liangliang, thank you, the point you made is very useful."

"Not just a polite remark?"

"No, that lake is very crucial."

"I think it would be more appropriate if you told me these things after we visit the lake at dawn."

Li Zhiyuan tapped his forehead: "No need, it's all stored here."

Xue Liangliang slightly opened his mouth and finally turned it into a wry smile: "Your memory is truly enviable."

Li Zhiyuan lowered his head and took another sip of brown sugar tea.

Everything has two sides, "forgetting" is sometimes actually a self-protection mechanism.

A good memory means that all the unpleasant experiences from the past remain vividly.

Just at that moment, Li Zhiyuan suddenly looked up; he heard footsteps, with a cautious air.

"Pa!"

Yin Meng on the second floor drew out a whip and lashed it out in front of her, creating a loud crack.

In the room on the first floor, Run Sheng, Tan Wenbin, and Lin Shuyou rushed out, each with tools in hand.

Li Zhiyuan stood up, looking towards the southwest earthen wall, and waved his hand forward.

Yin Meng was the first to move, hooking onto the railing with her whip, swinging across from the second floor.

Run Sheng lunged forward, crouched at the base of the earthen wall, and Lin Shuyou, during his sprint, stepped on Run Sheng's knee, leaping directly over the wall.

Immediately, Run Sheng jumped up, grabbing the edge of the earthen wall with his left hand and pulling himself over with arm strength.

Though this earth building is old, it might have served as a semi-military facility before liberation, hence the earthen wall is very high and slippery.

After Tan Wenbin ran to the wall and saw that Run Sheng had already made it over without waiting for him, he continued to make a running motion, backtracking to Li Zhiyuan and Xue Liangliang's side.

All three went out, leaving himself to protect the important personnel.

Xue Liangliang asked nervously, "Is she here?"

Li Zhiyuan shook his head: "It's not her."

Judging by the sound, the footsteps were more like a thief.

It didn't take long before the earthen building's main door swung open, and Run Sheng entered holding a man in dirty work clothes, who looked terrified.

Li Zhiyuan walked up to him and asked, "What's your name, Cui Hao or Li Ren?"

"My name... Cui Hao." The man looked around, "Are you... are you from the construction team?"

"Yes."

"Then... then you..."

Cui Hao couldn't comprehend when construction team technicians could fall from the sky just like that!

He had just sneaked to the outside of the earthen wall when suddenly three figures dropped in front of him, surrounding him, then one of them picked him up as if he were a chick.

Li Zhiyuan: "Tell me about your situation. Is Li Ren still alive?"

"He is alive, but he's injured."

"Tell us about what's been happening to you both."

Cui Hao was astonished: "Since you're from the construction team, shouldn't you be going to save him now?"

"Li Ren isn't going to die any time soon, is he?"

"No, he won't."

"Then there's no rush."

Li Zhiyuan sat down, gesturing downward with his hand.

Run Sheng pressed Cui Hao down to sit, and Tan Wenbin came over, dagger in hand. Before Cui Hao could react, Tan Wenbin grabbed his hand and made a cut on one of his fingers.

"Ah!"

After a drop of blood was checked, Tan Wenbin nodded, indicating he was genuine.
