Chapter 57: Money is used when it is not enough!

The corners of Gu Qi's lips were slightly hooked, and a trace of cunning slipped under his eyes.

Such a large meteorite, at least a thousand catties, or even more, such a heavy physical work is not something that their group of old, weak, sick and disabled people can accomplish.

I remember that Brother Ge had mentioned to her before that if you encounter something more difficult, you only need to pay for it to find Tianji Pavilion to do it, and this one now just meets the requirements.

"Uncle, I need to ask for your opinion right now."

Gu Qi had already demonstrated several methods in her mind how to restore the land in Shahe County to its previous state, but either one was not an easy task, and she had to communicate with the only authority in Shahe County.

"Miss Gu, I am over half a hundred years old, and I have no pursuit in this life, I just hope that my old bones can come in handy in my lifetime for the benefit of my children and grandchildren, and I can die without regrets!"

As the old man spoke, there was a little mist in his eyes that had gone through all the vicissitudes of life, Gu Qi looked distressed, and hurriedly stepped forward to comfort him, and finally stabilized the old man's feelings.

"Uncle, listen to me, if you want to restore our Shahe County to the situation it was before, there are three ways to choose." Gu Qi's face was straight, and his eyebrows couldn't help frowning slightly.

"Of these three methods, one is to drain the underground lake behind the land temple; One is to think of completely sealing off the place, so that not a trace of moisture can seep out; Another way, and I think the safest way, is to dig up the culprit's meteorite. ”

She had already shown Qingquan and the others that all the soil in Shahe County would turn red, precisely because the water vapor in the underground lake evaporated, depositing a large amount of iron in the soil. Therefore, as long as the meteorite or the underground lake are isolated, it will not be long before the soil of Shahe County can naturally return to normal.

But since it was not easy to isolate either the underground lake or the giant meteorite, she wanted to hear what the only elder thought.

After listening to what Gu Qi said, I didn't know what the old man thought, and he didn't say anything for a while, just looked at one place with a deep brow.

"Uncle, what are you thinking?" Gu Qi couldn't bear to be so dry, so she had to remind her that there were still details that she didn't expect and ignored.

The old man raised his hand and coughed lightly, and his breath became a little panting, but when he saw everyone's scrutinizing eyes, he still couldn't help but sigh.

"It seems that this is all fate, all fate."

The old man's eyes revealed unwillingness, but there was also a sense of powerlessness that was deeply imprisoned.

It's just that everyone is curious, what makes the old man so embarrassed, and it directly annihilates the hope in his eyes before.

"Grandpa, what the hell do you think, tell my sister quickly."

The old man's little grandson couldn't stand it anymore, and shook the old man's arm anxiously, wanting him to tell everyone about his decision.

The old man looked at the thin sweat on his little grandson's forehead, and his heart was slightly moved, and his eyes did not feel bright. He touched the heads of his little grandson and Xuan'er, and finally sighed and told the secret buried in his heart.

It turned out that everyone expected that the land temple in Shahe County was built to cover up the starfall.

According to the records of Shahe County, as early as one night 800 years ago, a huge bright and smooth sky, and soon there was a loud sound that shook the sky, and the next day people found the bottomless pit in a place in Shahe County, which was the earliest appearance of the hole in the Land Temple.

Or maybe this starfall didn't want to be buried in the city, so big starfall happened to fall in the depths of the underground lake in Shahe County, and the cold and biting lake water completely preserved it, until the people of Shahe County entered the cave and found its storage.

The gods descend from heaven must be worshiped first, and the worship of nature in this era is deep in the bone marrow.

When the people of Shahe County discovered this starfall from outside the sky, they would burn incense and worship it as a sacred object.

And after hundreds of years have passed, people have long forgotten the purpose of building this temple, and only remember that this place is very sacred and the water here is very sweet.

There is also the memory of the old man who is in his old age, and he still retains these stories that have been passed down from generation to generation, but he didn't expect that this starfall from outside the sky was real, and it also brought endless disasters to the people of Shahe County.

After listening to what the old man said, Gu Qi knew his concerns. Since there is such a legend in Shahe County, then the legend must also have a harsh warning to future generations, just like the curse of the ancient Egyptian tombs, most of which are threatening and warning.

But judging from the current situation, this addiction has to be removed!

"The old man might as well think of a compromise solution." Gu Qi chuckled skillfully, his eyes shining with anticipation: "This starfall must be removed, otherwise this place in Shahe County will be completely abolished." But we are not talking about removing it completely, but moving it to a place that isolates it from the underground lake so that there will be no problems. ”

"That's great!" The old man held Gu Qi's hands, and a smile finally appeared in his eyes: "Then let's do it, but now there are only two of our ancestors and grandchildren left in Shahe County, and there are no young strong men, but how to dig out the starfall from the bottom of the lake?" ”

"Rest assured, we'll take care of this problem."

She still has some money left, and she will ask everyone what is worth it later, and ask Brother Ge to report a letter to Tianji Pavilion to see their intentions, if they agree, then a few of them can go on the road with peace of mind.

"Brother Ge, I'm afraid I'll have to bother you for a while."

Gu Qi winked apologetically at Ge, and when everyone was not paying attention, he told Ge Hong about his idea of preparing to ask for help from Tianji Pavilion.

"This ...... Do we have anything of value left? Ge Honghu looked Gu Qi up and down suspiciously, they are on the way to Beijing, silver is the most lacking, not to mention that when they get to the capital, they don't know what will happen to the capital, there will always be some places where money will be used, if you are lavish now, then what should you do next.

Gu Qi sighed, this is really a lack of money when it is used!

I thought that during the time in Liuxiangju, I had saved enough silver taels, but judging from the current situation, she was really short-sighted and insightful.

However, looking at the expectant eyes of the old and the young, how did she give up halfway.

"Brother Ge, it's better to ...... Why don't we get this off. Gu Qi took out the jade pendant that Su Baiyan gave her when she left, and her eyes were a little reluctant, this jade pendant was priceless just by looking at it, not to mention that she remembered that Su Baiyan said that this was the seal of their Su family, and if something went wrong, she could use it to save her life at any time.

"That's it, let's try the intention of Tianji Pavilion first." Ge Hong stretched out his hand to take Gu Qi's jade pendant, but saw her little hand involuntarily shrink back.

There was no way, she really felt a little heartache when she saw such a large piece of jade given to others.
