Chapter 414 413 Ask
This time, Xiaomi heard it, and without Wei Ziang's explanation, Xiaomi quickly said.

"It's all my fault. I came to the border for the first time. I haven't seen what the grassland looks like. I heard my brother mention it twice, so I pestered him to take me out to play."

"I didn't intend to hide it on purpose, but I was afraid that my parents would find out and not allow us to go out, so I sneaked out to play for a few days."

Xiaomi said with a look of remorse: "If my little brother told me earlier that he can't leave the level at will, I wouldn't pester him to take me out to play."

This is the commander of a thousand commanders, an officer who can command 1000 people, which is probably equivalent to the commander she knows.

The concept of this incident is equivalent to the emergence of a very large military secret in the country. The main insider of this secret actually sneaked out of the country and lost contact for several days!
In this situation, if it weren't for the fact that the two were the discoverers of the iron ore, and they had notified General Song immediately, it would probably have ended badly.

This is the reason why Xiaomi finally understood after deep introspection during the recent period.

It can be said that General Song was only beaten with a military stick, which was really a minor punishment and a major punishment. By the way, it was also a show for the Minister of the Ministry of War who came from the capital.

Wei Ziang also said: "I don't blame the general, I have not seen my younger sister for many years, this time I got carried away and forgot the military regulations."

General Song snorted: "If it weren't for the great meritorious service you two brothers and sisters have made this time, these hundred military sticks would be rare."

He purposely emphasized the words 'great meritorious service', Master Xie couldn't hear it.

Looking at Wei Ziang's serious injury, he also asked General Song before.

From the time when the brothers and sisters left the customs to their return, the news of the stone forest had not spread, and [-] soldiers were still guarding around the stone forest.

"Okay, okay, General Song, you are too strict, you look like a baby, it's normal to be playful."

Master Xie smiled and asked them to sit down, Xiaomi supported Wei Ziang, Wei Ziang just sat on the edge of the chair.

Seeing this, General Song went out to the door and asked someone to bring over two cushions.

After Wei Ziang was able to sit down with a cushion on the cushions, the few people began to discuss serious matters.

When the iron ore was discovered, Wei Ziang reminded Xiaomi that if anyone came from the capital, they would definitely ask them about it.

The two had already made good confessions, and now when Mr. Xie asked, Wei Ziang was also 'telling the truth'.

"To be honest, my lord, Xiaomi has been very perceptive since she was a child. When she entered the stone forest, she felt uncomfortable faster than us. It was only because of the starling bird that she had raised for many years that she was able to find us."

"It was Xiaomi who told me at the time that she felt that the stone forest made people feel uncomfortable. Maybe there was something in it, and the confessions of some robbers further proved this point."

"It happened that Xiaomi and I were fine at the time, so we went to the Stone Forest to look for it. Xiaomi could feel the most uncomfortable place in the Stone Forest. That's where we found the iron ore."

When Wei Ziang explained, Xiaomi nodded beside him, indicating that my little brother is right, my little brother is right!
General Song also took out a map of Stone Forest: "Speaking of which, when I heard the news, I forgot to ask, so I sent someone to rush it to the capital, Xiao Wei Xiaomi, do you remember where you found it? "

It's not that General Song forgot to ask, but he didn't dare to ask.

If one more person knows this news, the risk will be higher. After he got the definite answer from Wei Ziang, he rushed eight hundred miles to play it.

Xiaomi was embarrassed: "I can't remember clearly, I was not very comfortable in the stone forest, brother, do you remember?"

General Song secretly rolled his eyes, feeling uncomfortable?It's okay to deceive Master Xie who doesn't know.

When he met Xiaomi in Shilin back then, don't be too energetic, okay?

Fortunately, Mr. Xie was looking at the map right now, so he didn't notice General Song's eyes.

Wei Ziang nodded, "Remember, it was just outside the area where we were trapped."

As he spoke, Wei Ziang drew a line on the map with his hand.

"In this area, roughly in the middle, Xiaomi was not feeling well at the time, so he rested next to it. I dug about three feet down from here and found iron ore, but when we left, we filled the pit back."

This is not the first time Mr. Xie has seen this map. After listening to a few people talking, he thought for a while and suddenly asked, "How did Commander Wei recognize that it was an iron mine?"

Wei Ziang smiled: "To tell the truth, my lord, I really don't know the iron ore I just dug, but I have a magnet, and I'm sure that when I dug it hard, there was iron in it."

As he spoke, Wei Ziang took out a round black stone from his bosom.

This magnet was found by Xiaomi for him. The two of them worked hard to avoid being suspected. This magnet was specially found by Xiaomi.

As the Minister of the Ministry of War, Mr. Xie naturally knew what a magnet was, so he quickly took it over to have a look, and took a sharp dagger from his pocket.

To be honest, when Mr. Xie took out the dagger, the three of them were a little stunned.

With a sound of 'touch', Master Xie's eyes lit up: "It is indeed a good magnet!"

"If the magnet reacts on the ore, it means that the iron ore does exist."

Master Xie was a little excited: "Great, this stone forest is extremely vast and covers thousands of miles. If the stone forest is full of iron mines, the strength of my Xu Yuchao will definitely be multiplied!"

Even when he came here, he already knew about it, and nine times out of ten it is impossible to be fake, but after he was really sure, he still couldn't help being excited.

After a while, Master Xie returned the magnet to Wei Ziang.

"Such a high-grade magnet is really rare. Commander Wei must take good care of it."

Wei Ziang smiled and said nothing, but carefully put away the magnet.

Master Xie took a look at the sky and stood up actively: "It's getting late, I've delayed the two of you tonight, and I'm going to see Shilin early tomorrow morning, I wonder if you two have time together?"

Wei Ziang naturally nodded in agreement, expressing that he would accompany him at any time.

Before leaving, Lord Xie also sent someone to send a plant of ginseng, saying that it would be for Wei Ziang's health, and Lord Xie also said that if it is confirmed that there is iron ore, the Holy Majesty will give him another reward.

It wasn't until leaving the General's Mansion that Xiaomi breathed a sigh of relief.

"Brother, Master Xie didn't say whether to expand the border."

Wei Ziang had no choice but to say, "Even if he really had a plan, he definitely wouldn't tell us."

In the eyes of the Minister of the Ministry of War, he is just a small officer. How could he discuss such a big matter with them.

Xiaomi thought for a while: "It's true, he didn't pay me much attention tonight."

Except for the fact that she explained the reason for leaving the customs at the very beginning, there was almost no chance to intervene. It was Master Xie who was asking the little brother.

Wei Ziang let out a sigh of relief: "It's better if I didn't ask you."

Although Xiaomi is smart, he is also too simple, so whenever Mr. Xie asks a few more questions, Xiaomi may slip up.
