Chapter 283: Water Vein Problem
Mo Fan never bothered with him, simply introduced the situation to them, and then led these people away from the academy.
As for strategies, in his opinion, they could figure things out on the way.
Sitting on the bullet train to Tongxiang County, Mo Fan, teaching for the first time, actually found it quite enjoyable.
"Yes, yes, that's a bit sore, knead it again, use more force," Mo Fan said, gesturing to the sweet-looking girl while lying comfortably in a luxurious chair.
Although Mu Ningxue was glaring, Mo Fan didn't mean to be a scumbag to his junior sister!
He just wanted to enjoy himself.
So, he was confident and not afraid at all!
"Is it here, Teacher? You must be overworked to have so many ailments. You must be careful in the future, pay attention to rest," the girl said earnestly.
"It's fine, it's fine, I'm young and strong. Hey... Zhou Lixin, right? Get me a glass of orange juice, iced," Mo Fan said, looking back at the overly mature student.
"Alright, alright!" Zhou Lixin immediately ran towards the train's supply cart.
Bai Hongfei, the handsome and cool man next to him, looked a bit speechless. This Great Demon was really good at bossing people around, wasn't he?
Of course, he naturally didn't dare to say anything.
Otherwise, Mo Fan would definitely beat him up. And it would be the kind where he felt powerless to resist.
"Ah, Bai Hongfei, I can tell just by looking at you that you're arrogant and impractical. You need to be down-to-earth in your work; don't aim too high, no one can achieve success overnight!" Mo Fan, with nothing else to do, began to lecture Bai Hongfei.
"Yes, yes, Teacher's lesson is right," Bai Hongfei said respectfully, despite his inner displeasure.
Mo Fan's fists were big, and he was the same age, so even if he was unwilling, he couldn't help but obey.
Upon arriving in Tongxiang County, Mo Fan opened the blueprint and found that many of the water channels in Tongxiang County had undergone large-scale rectification. Being in the midst of it, he didn't feel much, but only by flying to a height of over five hundred meters and looking down could he see how clever these changes were.
"Let's go, we need to leave the safe zone and follow the water source to find the obstructed area..." Mo Fan said to the students.
Once outside the safe zone, the students' faces showed vigilance. Unlike Mo Fan, who had dealt with demons since high school, they hadn't truly experienced many life-and-death trials, so their nerves tightened as soon as they stepped out.
"This water vein flows down from Biyuan Mountain, and this one flows from Qingyi Lake, Teacher. I'll go check Biyuan Mountain; I've been there before and I'm quite familiar with it," Bai Hongfei volunteered.
He didn't want to stay with Mo Fan at all.
After all, if it weren't for graduating with honors, he would have left a long time ago!
It could be said that in Bai Hongfei's opinion, there was a gap between him and Mo Fan, but not by much. He would surpass Mo Fan sooner or later.
Everyone has their pride, and Bai Hongfei was no exception!
"Are you sure you're okay?" Mo Fan asked.
"We came out for training. If the mentor accompanies us for everything, what kind of training would that be? Moreover, we joined to help the mentor, and dealing with this water vein blockage as quickly as possible is the top priority," Bai Hongfei said solemnly.
The other students, hearing Bai Hongfei's words, couldn't help but show disdain. This Bai Hongfei had been so arrogant before, how could he be so shamelessly flattering now?
"Mentor, then I'll be responsible for Xujia Stream! I'm sure I can find the cause!" another self-confident student said, unwilling to be outdone.
"Mentor, I'll take Minghe!"
Mo Fan watched as the students volunteered to share the tasks, and nodded in satisfaction. Then he said, "Alright, then you can go."
"Pay attention to your safety. If anything happens, send me a signal immediately, and I'll come to support you as quickly as possible," Mo Fan reminded them again.
Although he knew they wouldn't encounter any danger, he still had to say what needed to be said.
Additionally, Mo Fan came here to subdue the little moth girl. Whether it was for the future of the West or the sect currently being established in Flying Bird City, her spirit moths could be put to good use.
Soon, several people left, leaving only Mu Ningxue and Cao Qinqin.
"Teacher, what about us?" the sweet-looking female student asked, standing beside Mo Fan, looking a bit anxious.
All the places were taken; if she stayed here, wouldn't she have no task?
How could she graduate then?
"What do you want to do?" Mo Fan asked Cao Qinqin playfully after instructing Mu Ningxue to secretly follow the others.
Cao Qinqin was momentarily stunned, feeling as if she had been teased!
"Just look around casually, you don't have anywhere to go anyway," Mo Fan continued.
Cao Qinqin felt a wave of disappointment. She was getting further and further from graduating with honors. And this unreliable mentor...
Upon arriving at Qingyi Lake, looking at the completely blue, silky smooth lake surface, they finally understood why it was called Qingyi Lake. It was truly a beautiful sight, but unfortunately, it was outside the safe zone. Otherwise, many people would surely drive here late at night to watch the lake and shake their cars.
Hmm, it must be said, Mo Fan also became somewhat interested.
"Cao Qinqin, go stroll around nearby and see if you can discover anything, um, stroll around a bit more," Mo Fan said seriously.
"Huh?"
Cao Qinqin was startled.
"I've sensed that the surrounding danger level isn't high. If there's any problem, I'll rush to help you immediately," Mo Fan continued.
"Oh, okay..." Cao Qinqin replied.
Cao Qinqin followed Mo Fan's request and went to investigate nearby. She was about five hundred meters from Qingyi Lake, and looking at the extremely tranquil water, a strange feeling arose within her.
But for a moment, she couldn't quite put her finger on what was wrong.
As she gazed at the lake water, immersed in it, she suddenly thought of something, and then mumbled to herself: "Reflection, it's the reflection!"
Reflection! The lake water was so calm, not even a ripple could be seen, but why did such a lake have no reflection?!
So blue, so smooth, yet it didn't reflect the white clouds in the sky, nor did it reflect the surrounding mountains and trees. At this point, Cao Qinqin felt a chill.
The lake surface was probably over three kilometers in diameter, definitely a very large lake in these mountains. It was surrounded by mountains on all sides, yet not a single part of the lake reflected the outline of the mountains. This was too bizarre!
Immediately, she rushed towards Mo Fan's location.
She felt that Mo Fan might know something, or rather, had already noticed it. Letting her investigate was just to make them realize it themselves.
Cao Qinqin returned. After Mo Fan asked her, he was quite satisfied with her reaction speed.
After assessing Cao Qinqin, the other graduates were also returning to this location.
