Elder Heng found his young subordinate quite foolish. "Don't you know who Feng Wu is?"
Yang Zhihu said, "Should I know that name?"
Elder Heng asked, "Do you really not know who she is?"
Yang Zhihu was even more bewildered. He had only been in the Dayless Woods for two weeks. Why did it feel like he had come back to a different world?
Seeing that Yang Zhihu really had no idea, Elder Heng told him, "As for who Feng Wu is... Look." He simply showed Yang Zhihu the fist-sized essence crystal.
Yang Zhihu was confused. "Aren't essence crystals usually the size of a fingernail? Why is this one so big?"
Elder Heng said, "It's from our mine."
Yang Zhihu didn't believe him. "How can that be? Our essence crystals always have a yellow tint and are of inferior quality. None of them are this big."
Elder Heng laughed. "That was before! Your information is outdated!"
Yang Zhihu said, "What?"
Elder Heng said, "The Imperial College has a new essence crystal mine now!" He was so pleased that he couldn't stop smiling.
Yang Zhihu was astonished. The news of the discovery of a new essence crystal mine could shake the entire empire. How could he not have heard it? "A new essence crystal mine? Did Elder Helian find it?" Yang Zhihu lowered his voice.
Elder Heng said, "It's not a new mine. We got it from them..." He pointed in the direction of the Military Academy. He was usually quite serious, but Yang Zhihu was one of his own, so he didn't try to hide his feelings and laughed heartily.
Yang Zhihu didn't understand. He didn't get Elder Heng's hint.
Elder Heng finally put it in plain words. "It's not a newly discovered mine. We took it from the Military Academy. It's mine No. 3."
Yang Zhihu stopped laughing and stared at Elder Heng. "Sir, that's not funny at all. Please don't make fun of me."
Elder Heng looked at him. "Do you think I'm joking?"
Yang Zhihu said, "Of course!"
Elder Heng said seriously, "I'm not joking."
Yang Zhihu knew Elder Heng was telling the truth when he became serious.
Hence... "Really?! Is that true?!" Yang Zhihu almost jumped to his feet. "Why was the Military Academy so generous? Why did they give us that mine? Did the general give that order?"
Elder Heng shook his head with a smile. "It was the work of a genius in our school."
"A genius?" Yang Zhihu thought about the talented members of his school. "Was it Feng Xun? Xuan Yi?"
Elder Heng shook his head.
"Was it Yan Han?"
Elder Heng said, "Yan Han has talent in inscriptions, but she has nothing to do with this."
Yang Zhihu asked, "Was it Wang Zhaole?"
Elder Heng said, "The answer is still no."
Yang Zhihu asked, "Who was it, then? I'm running out of options."
Elder Heng said, "You mentioned that name when you came here."
Yang Zhihu was confused. Whose name did he mention when he came? "I didn't mention any name."
Elder Heng looked at his capable subordinate in resignation. "Weren't you looking for Feng Wu's file?"
"Yes, I was..." Yang Zhihu finally realized what Elder Heng meant, and he stared at the latter in astonishment. "Feng Wu?!" As a senior colonel, he shouldn't reveal his emotions so freely, however...
