"Go home? The old hero cannot do this!"

Hearing this, Cao Qing quickly stopped the Second Master and Gu Yuan.

The second master frowned and said displeasedly: "Why, if you don't let me go back, are you going to lock me up together?"

Cao Qing was stunned and quickly asked: "What are you talking about, old hero? Who dares to lock you up?"

The second master sneered: "Who dares? You guys just wanted me to stay in jail for a few days to calm down!"

Cao Qing was furious, looked at Chen Yuanqiao and said: "Mayor Chen, what is going on!"

Before Chen Yuanqiao could answer, Gao Haibo said in a panic: "Secretary Cao, it's me. I mistakenly thought that the old hero brought people to make trouble, so I wanted to scare them."

Cao Qing's face turned cold and he said sullenly: "Scare me? The old hero has survived through mountains and seas of fire, how dare you do this?"

"It seems that if I come back a few days later, Longgang will probably become a mess!"

"Mayor Chen, how do you lead your team?"

Cao Qing attacked Chen Yuanqiao without any regard for mercy.

Listening to Cao Qing's accusation, Chen Yuanqiao was secretly angry. It was obvious that Cao Qing was using the topic to suppress himself.

But now that the matter has come to this, Chen Yuanqiao has nothing to say. He can only say in a deep voice: "This matter is my dereliction of duty. I will give an explanation to the old hero."

Cao Qing's attack on Chen Yuanqiao was effective, and he became friendly again: "Hey, it's not Mayor Chen's fault."

"After all, Mayor Chen has just arrived in Longgang not long ago and is not familiar with all aspects, which is understandable."

"But Director Gao, you need to review this matter, and you must not chill the hearts of the fighting heroes!"

With that said, Cao Qing said to the Second Master with a smile on his face: "Don't worry, old hero, I promise you on behalf of Longgang that such a thing will never happen again in the future."

"It's already very late today. It's better for the old hero to stay in the guest house temporarily and wait until the honorary certificates are awarded to the old hero in the past two days before leaving!"

"That's not necessary. I don't care about certificates of honor. As for the guest house, do you think it can accommodate so many people?" The second master said and looked at the hundreds of villagers behind him.

Seeing this, Cao Qing's face froze, and then he said apologetically: "Well, after we have verified the information in the past two days, we will ask the old hero to work hard again!"

The second grandfather felt bored when he saw Cao Qing who was talking a lot of good things. This kind of duplicitous and pragmatic person is the most difficult to deal with. In order to quickly bring Gu Yuan back to the village, he could only agree, and then led the villagers to get on the bus.

Depart Longgang.

Chen Yuanqiao didn't want to stay any longer, and then found an excuse to leave.

When calm returned to the municipal compound, the smile on Cao Qing's face instantly faded, replaced by dignity and gloom.

"Who told you to do this?" Cao Qing shouted angrily at Gao Haibo.

Gao Haibo shrank his neck and said tremblingly: "A few days ago, that Hu Maoming came to Wolong Mountain again. That boy named Gu Yuan learned the secret of Wolong Mountain from Hu Maoming's mouth."

"They were afraid that the news would leak out, so they wanted to talk to that guy. Who knew that guy wouldn't take it easy!"

After hearing this, Gao Qing sneered and said: "You don't want to take soft and hard advice? I think you didn't expect that there is an old man hiding so deeply in Wolong Village!"

"Tell those people that Longgang is a municipal Longgang. As long as I, Cao Qing, are here today, Longgang will not be a place outside the law. If you want to forage in the mountains, you must follow the rules of Longgang!"

"Otherwise, dogs that bite people will have their legs broken!"

After saying that, Cao Qing strode away with a cold expression, leaving Gao Haibo standing bent over with a gloomy expression.

...

"Second Master, why did you come to Longgang?"

On the way back in the car, Gu Yuan couldn't help but ask.

The second master glared at Gu Yuan and cursed: "It's not because you, kid, followed Fatty Wang and was taken away for a day without hearing anything from you, how can I not be worried?"

Gu Yuan smiled coquettishly, scratched his head in embarrassment, then looked at Wang Sanwei who was driving, and whispered: "Second Master, do you know the situation in Wolong Mountain?"

The second prince glanced at Gu Yuan and said disdainfully: "They are just a bunch of junk!"

Gu Yuan looked at the Second Master in shock and said in disbelief: "Do you know there is a mine in Wolong Mountain?"

The second grandfather nodded: "Of course I know, I knew it before I was your grandfather!"

Gu Yuan took a breath, his face filled with astonishment.

Seeing this, the Second Master explained: "Before I joined the army, I was a blacksmith! Where do you think so many farm tools come from?"

"They are all refined from Wolong Mountain!"

Gu Yuan was stunned for a long time after hearing what the Second Master said. After digesting the shocking news, he said in confusion: "Since you already knew it, why didn't you tell me?"

The Second Master sighed and said, "Why do you say that? There used to be mines in the mountains, and whoever found them would own them. At that time, there were no conditions. At most, you could get some for yourself when you use them."

"Later on, if there is a mine, it belongs to the country. When your grandfather was the mayor of Wolong, he had this thought."

"But mining will cause too much environmental damage to Wolong Mountain. What's more, Wolong Mountain is such a big place with so many villages. Who can make this decision?"

"Later, Wolong Town was revoked without reason, and the matter was shelved."

Hearing this, Gu Yuan suddenly understood. It seemed that those people were not lying. Wolong was indeed withdrawn, and it was indeed their handiwork.

"Why are you asking about this suddenly?" The second master looked at Gu Yuan and said.

Gu Yuan hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell the second master what happened today.

After a while, the Second Master, who understood what happened, showed a hint of understanding and said: "Sure enough, these people are not giving up yet."

"Second Master knows about those people?" Gu Yuan asked in surprise.

The Second Master nodded: "Not only do we know about it! We have also fought against him!"

As he spoke, the second master rolled up his sleeves, revealing the hideous scar on his arm.

"Which group of people did this?" Gu Yuan gasped.

The second prince smiled: "They did more than that. Why do you think the ecology of Wolong Mountain has become worse and worse in recent years? Not only are various medicinal herbs difficult to survive, but even the rare animals are becoming less and less."

"These are all their handiwork!"

"Can't we stop them?" Gu Yuan said angrily.

The second master shook his head helplessly: "How to stop it? Wolong Mountain stretches for hundreds of miles and is surrounded by mountains. There are no less than a hundred hills, large and small. Many of them are deep in the mountains and old forests. No one can find them if you dig into them."

"Hiding them deep in the mountains is like looking for a needle in a haystack. You can't send people to guard them from hilltop to hilltop, right?"

"It's not like your grandfather didn't organize a mountain patrol back then, but these people were hiding like rats and fighting guerrillas with the patrol in the Wolong Mountains. It was so difficult to catch them."
