In the upper reaches of the Xunjiang River, there is a quiet deep mountain canyon, the high mountains on both sides go straight up for nearly a thousand meters, and there is a narrow canyon in the middle, and the water vapor at the bottom of the valley is steaming.

The quiet and pleasant retreat was interrupted by the roar of a roaring machine.

An excavator wields a large shovel to clear the surrounding vegetation one by one, preparing to clear a platform, with several people wearing hard hats pointing at the side.

"Section Chief Xiao, we have to dig into at least three meters, otherwise there will be no place to arrange the viewing platform." One of the foreman-like men said flatteringly to the other, who had a bit of an official air on his body.

Section Chief Xiao looked at the mountain rock standing on the wall not far away, "If you dig deeper, you will encounter a rock, can you do it?" ”

"No problem, what are you afraid of, if you can't hit it, you just need to fire two cannons."

"This can't be done, this is a protected area, how can you just open the mountain and set off artillery, if you want to fire two cannons, the mountain will be blown up, can we still do this business?"

"It's okay, they're all old gunners, accurate, there won't be problems."

"That's not going to happen, protective development, protective development, do you understand?"

"Understood! Understand! How to protect without development, isn't it! ”

"Less poor mouth, at most on the excavator, resolutely unsuccessful."

Hearing this, the foreman grinned, does this mean that he wants to use a wind drill to gnaw raw? This cost is a lot of money, which is as simple as putting two guns casually, and throwing two detonators with a hole is more convenient.

In order to prevent the foreman from coming, Section Chief Xiao solemnly emphasized.

"No guns, no guns, important things said three times, remember, we are a scenic spot, not a mining area, boom, the guests are scared away."

"I know, I know!" The foreman pouted.

This was just to hear an exclamation, a few people looked over, and saw a sudden gushing of water under the shovel of the excavator, the water flow was not small, like a fire faucet, bubbling out, and soon filled the excavated pit. The flow felt very strange, not like water, more like paste, sticky, very thick.

"What did you dig into?" The excavator driver was shocked.

"Leather Monkey, what did you Temad dig up? Are you digging a water pipe? ”

"Boss, no, I didn't dig anything."

"It's not a water pipe, there's no line here." Section Chief Xiao looked at the strange liquid and felt very puzzled.

The strange liquid was still gushing outward, and soon it filled the pit that had been dug and overflowed.

"Leather monkey! Turn the mound open and see what you've dug up. The foreman shouted at the excavator driver.

The excavator sprang into action, and the bucket was as nimble as a human hand, pulling twice on the mound of dirt, and turning over a strange piece of something, a brown tubular object like a tree root.

The bucket sent the strange thing to the foreman, and the excavator driver also jumped out of the car and came over, and several workers around came to take a look.

The foreman reached out and took out the pipe from the bucket, which was soft and elastic like rubber. The outer skin is two or three centimeters thick, wrapped in a brown outer skin, and the inside is like a grated coconut, milky white and milky, and I don't know if I can eat it.

The whole pipe is about 30 centimeters in diameter, and the section that was dug up is about 50 centimeters long, and it has been completely cracked, as if it was torn from something by an excavator.

"It's like a water pipe!" The foreman shook what he was doing, and it was quite weighty. "Section Chief Xiao, there really is no pipeline here?"

Section Chief Xiao was also strange, this thing did look like a water pipe, and he was a little unsure, "I've been working in the scenic spot for more than ten years, and I haven't heard of a water pipe here." ”

"What ...... this thing?"

"I'll go back and ask, maybe when you buried it?"

"Shall we still dig here?"

Section Chief Xiao looked at the large paste that had spread, "Wait for now, wait until I ask clearly." You have to find a way to stop the water first, so that it doesn't get everywhere. ”

Section Chief Xiao walked away with the strange water pipe, and the leather monkey approached the foreman, "Boss, what should we do?" ”

"What to do?" The foreman has a neck pocket, "What should I do if I get into trouble?" Cold! Hurry up and plug the water for me! ”

"What's wrong with me?" The leather monkey looked aggrieved, "It's not bad for me, who knew there was a water pipe down there." ”

"Go, go, go! Just know that you have a strong mouth, hurry up and get to work! ”

It was strange that the foreman drove the monkey away with three or two feet, and squatted on the edge of the overflowing paste.

"It's not like water, it's a chemical pipeline? That's not right, where did the factory come from in this reserve? ”

At this time, a duck raised by someone swayed over, and as he walked, he suddenly found that there was an obstacle on the road he walked every day, and a large piece of water appeared on the road.

When the duck saw the water, he habitually stretched out his beak and snored, and after snoring for a while, the duck raised his head, smashed it, smashed it, and found that it tasted good. Immediately reach in and scoop up a mouthful of paste, raise your neck and swallow it into your stomach.

Quack!

The duck was happy to eat, and while barking, he kept scooping the paste into his stomach.

Can this thing be eaten?

The foreman looked at the duck and wondered.

Why don't you give it a try?

"Lao Li!" The foreman called over a worker, who was dark-skinned and honest, and was obviously a migrant worker who had gone to the city to work.

"Eh, boss, what's wrong with you?"

"Go! Go find a bucket and make two buckets of this paste. The foreman pointed to the pit full of paste.

Not long after, the worker brought two tin buckets and reached into the pit to punch out two buckets full of paste.

"Take it to the kitchen and boil a pot first. By the way, tell them that no one should eat it! ”

After a while, the excavator blocked the pit, and the paste that kept gushing out was temporarily blocked in the pit, but according to this trend, maybe after an hour and a half, the big pit would have to be filled, and it would have to overflow at that time.

The leather monkey jumped off the excavator, "Boss, what are we doing here?" ”

"What can I do then?" The foreman glared at him, "Go, find out where to raise chickens, ducks, geese and so on around here." ”

"What? Dinner in the evening? ”

"If you want to be beautiful, let you go, and come back and tell me when you find it."

"Good!" The leather monkey immediately turned around and slipped away.

After a while, Lao Li came over with a bowl, "Boss! This stuff smells good! ”

Inside the bowl is a sticky paste, clearly cooked, sticky like mashed potatoes, with an enticing fragrance.

The foreman looked at the paste in the bowl, and then at the duck that had been drunk to a round belly, this thing was really edible? The foreman couldn't make up his mind for a while, and he didn't dare to take people for experiments casually, so he had to stare dryly.

The leather monkey quickly turned back, "Boss, there are a few chickens and ducks and two pigs in the back of the restaurant in the reserve. ”

"Bring the cooked paste and come with me." The foreman gave an order to Lao Li, followed the leather monkey and walked to the back of the restaurant in the reserve.

When I arrived at the place, I found that the chickens and ducks in the restaurant were all free-range, some ate in the yard, and some ran outside the yard to catch insects to eat.

The foreman scooped up a little cooked paste and fed it to a few chickens and ducks, who hesitated for a moment and immediately flocked to eat them happily.

After eating all the big bowl of batter, the chickens and ducks didn't seem to have any adverse reactions, and the foreman was relieved.

He scooped up a large bowl and fed it to the pigs, and the two pigs ate them all up, humming and wanting them.

After looking at it for a long time, he found that the pig had no adverse reactions, and the foreman was completely relieved, and carefully glued a little with his fingers and sent it into his mouth, smacking the taste.

Well...... Fragrant, sweet, glutinous, cottony, with a bit of strange umami, good! It tastes good!

Seeing that the foreman had eaten it, the leather monkey and Lao Li couldn't help but taste it too, and immediately praised it.

"It's delicious."

"I don't know, anyway, if you dig it out of the ground, you can definitely eat it."

The two of them talked while eating.

The foreman didn't feel anything wrong, and when he saw that the two of them were eating happily, he immediately said.

"Hurry up and take out all our guys, it's all full of this kind of paste, maybe it's a land spirit like Tai Sui or something, maybe it's really a good thing, hurry up and get more while no one knows now."

The two of them said yes and ran away.

After a long time, when Section Chief Xiao reappeared on the construction site, he saw several workers happily filling the liquid in the puddle with various containers such as face plates, rice basins, buckets, and mineral water bottles.

"Section Chief Xiao, how's it going? Did you ask clearly? Are there water pipes here? The foreman greeted him.

"No, I asked again, and no one remembered that there were ever water pipes buried here, especially one of this size."

"So what do we do?"

"Dig! Keep digging! Normal construction! ”

"Great!"

The foreman was also thinking about digging it up, so he called over the leather monkey and whispered a few words in his ear, and the leather monkey immediately jumped on the excavator and commanded the big shovel to dig up.

This time, the excavator moved much softer, first clearing all the floating soil around the pit and then starting to dig where the water pipe had been dug.

The bucket followed the direction in which the pipe appeared, and continued to clean the covering soil on both sides, carefully cleaning layer by layer, as if it would damage something.

Soon, the place where the pipe had been excavated reappeared in front of everyone, and the bucket continued to dig in the direction of the pipe to both sides.

It can be seen that the surrounding soil has been completely soaked, but it is not too long, the depth of the soaked soil layer is limited, and the bucket keeps digging, and soon digs out the soil without signs of soaking.

At this time, the bucket had dug out a large trench more than three meters wide where the pipe appeared, but no signs of the pipe had been found, and it seemed that after the shovel dug out that section of the pipe, all the other parts of the pipe had disappeared.

The foreman and several workers around him looked at each other a few times, and they all saw the surprise in each other's eyes, could it be that the pipe they had just dug up was still a living thing?
