Chapter 14 Goes Through a Thousand Difficulties

Oooo

At the bottom of the mountain behind the former base camp of the Black Eagle Gang, the sound of beating stones continued.

There is a torch in the cave every few meters, and the walls of the cave are refracted with golden light in the light of the fire.

A dozen or so men were busy in the cave, smashing the rocks on the stone wall with hammers and chisels. Huazi patrolled back and forth, shouting from time to time: "Brothers, come on with oil!"

"I'm so hungry that my chest is close to my back, where do I still have the strength to refuel, it's almost the same to add vinegar!" Cai Junyang muttered in his mouth, full of complaints.

"Hold on for a few more days, and when Brother Kun and Mr. Qi come back, we will be able to improve the food. If this batch of gold is refined, can you still eat and drink without it?" Huazi patiently explained.

"When will this gold be refined-there is not a trace of meat in the food, all day after day of clear water cabbage and artichoke, if it goes on like this, the strength of the hammer will be gone; before the gold can be refined--it will already starve to death!" Cai Junyang stopped what he was doing and looked at Huazi with a sad brow.

"Drink porridge early in the morning, sprinkle a packet of urine, and your belly will be empty - how can people work!"

"It's just—where is this the life of a man—" Seeing that some people were picking their heads, others were gossiping.

The gun shot out of the head, Hua Zi's eyes widened, he glanced at everyone with an angry face, and his eyes fell coldly on Cai Junyang's face: "Cai Junyang, you kid don't fucking fan the flames, you forgot that you can't get paid, you don't have a child on your body, when you sleep on the street?"

Cai Junyang was speechless, bowed his head wistfully, and defended in his heart: I'm not the only one who is saying it, isn't everyone complaining!

"You don't have to fucking complain, you can only share the joys and sorrows, where is there such a beautiful thing? Believe it or not, Lao Tzu will replace you all, see where you still earn so much money and send it home!" After life and death, Huazi has now grown into a man who can take charge of himself.

"Brother Huazi, we didn't say anything, the brothers couldn't stand it, and it was reasonable to say two words of resentment, you adults don't care about villains, don't be like us!" Seeing that Huazi was angry, one person stood up and took the lead in admitting his mistakes, and the others also said soft words again and again.

Hua Zi's gaze swept over everyone sternly: "In this world, three-legged toads are hard to find, and there are so many two-legged people!

After speaking, Huazi walked out of the cave, found a shady stone and sat down by the trickling river, and fell into deep thought: Brother Kun and Mr. Qi handed over the matter of gold mining to me in disgrace, which fully reflects their trust in me.

This place is closed, people can get in, but it is difficult to get out, the ore is mined, and it can't be transported, so you can only use local methods to refine the gold yourself, and Ji Yankun or Qi Yun will take it out and sell it.

In order to ensure secrecy, Qi Yun advocated that the fewer people the better, no, there are more than ten people in total, and the complicated processes such as mining, grinding, and sieving gold have to be carried out, and they are tired and tired, and they can't produce much gold.

Looking up at the lower reaches of the river, Huazi couldn't help but recall the past:

At the beginning, Huazi almost died when crossing the stone overpass, and was rescued by Qi Yun and Ji Yankun, and the three of them shuttled in the old forest, climbing the mountain for a while, and going down the mountain for a while, as if there was only one road unimpeded.

When he is tired like a bird, he sleeps in the branches, and when he is hungry, he eats wild fruits and vegetables, and the woods are dense and dense, and for the sake of safety, Qi Yun does not advocate making a fire, even if he catches wild meat, he can only eat it raw.

The three of them lived a life comparable to that of savages for a long time, and their bodies were also tempered and strengthened in the wind and food. Every day when I open my eyes, I leave, and when I am hungry, I pick the fruit and eat it.

Huazi couldn't calculate the time at all, and when the snowflakes were fluttering in the mountains and forests, he suddenly realized that he had been gone for a season.

Qi Yun found a fairly spacious cave and began to plan for the winter, Huazi was responsible for collecting firewood, and Qi Yun and Ji Yankun were responsible for stockpiling food.

Nesting in the cave for the winter, the three of them finally ate the roasted game that they had been thinking about for more than half a year, Huazi and Ji Yankun gobbled it up, choking and rolling their eyes; Qi Yun was old, and he had experienced all kinds of suffering, so he kept chewing and swallowing slowly.

As a result, Huazi and Ji Yankun both had indigestion, rolling on the ground with their painful bellies, Qi Yun pointed at the two of them, crying and laughing: "I have long reminded you to eat slowly, don't eat too much, and don't listen, as if I am eating you and rushing to eat with you!"

"Sir, you do well, save us, next time you won't be greedy!" Huazi looked at Qi Yun pitifully, begging bitterly, Ji Yankun held back his self-esteem and remained silent.

Qi Yun glanced at Ji Yankun, squatted down, straightened Hua Zi's curled feet, let him lie straight and straight, and began to use his standing palms to regulate his abdomen from top to bottom, and after a while, Hua Zi let out a string of stinky farts, hurriedly got up and rushed into the snow, Qi Yun shouted at his back: "Get farther away, don't just pull it out and eat it back!"

Ji Yankun didn't understand the meaning of Qi Yun's words, just based on the literal meaning, he felt very funny, and couldn't help but sneer; this laugh, his belly hurt more and more, counting nine cold days, and his forehead was covered with beads of sweat.

"Sir-I-" Ji Yankun was so painful that he couldn't speak, Qi Yun's method of using him was a little different from Huazi's, rubbing the palms of his hands and feet in turn, and finally reached his abdomen.

Hua Zi easily drilled into the hole and jumped around: "Mr. is really Hua Tuo's reincarnation, I'm all over the world now!"

Ji Yankun let out a few farts, only smelling the smell but not the sound, the smell made Qi Yun frown, and Huazi covered his nose in disgust. Ji Yankun was so embarrassed that he got up from the ground, staggered and ran out of the cave, and after running not far, he couldn't hold on, and hurriedly stepped down his pants and crackled and sprayed filth.

After a long time, Ji Yankun grabbed a handful of snow, wiped his buttocks, lifted his pants, looked at a pool of blue-brown filth and pouted, grabbed the snow and spread it up, until it looked white, and then entered the cave with a red face.

Qi Yun opened his eyes slightly: "Are you comfortable?"

"It's comfortable, thank you, sir!" Ji Yankun was embarrassed and hid in the corner of the cave.

After eating too much roasted game, and pulling it a few more times, Ji Yankun and Huazi felt hot and dry, Qi Yun shook his head and sighed: "There's no water here, go get a little snow to eat!"

Only then did Ji Yankun and Huazi realize the meaning of what Qi Yun said before, 'don't just pull it out and eat it again', and they couldn't help but feel sick in their hearts.

The two walked out of the cave together, trying to find snow on the branches to eat, Huazi said to himself: "This is not a pull-out, and I eat it again!"

Ji Yankun just squirted out a handful of snow that he had just stuffed into his mouth, and looked at Huazi in dismay: "Are you disgusting, aren't you disgusting!"

Huazi laughed: "Brother Kun, it seems that you are not a big boss yet!"

"Go, little rabbit cub, dare to taunt my brother and me, beware of throwing you in the snow to feed the wolves!" Ji Yankun glared at Huazi angrily and threatened.

"You wouldn't do that, otherwise, what are you doing with Mr. Qi to save me three times or five times?" Hua Zi was fearless and giggled.

Ji Yankun was helpless: "Little rabbit cub, there will always be a day when you annoy me!"

"With Mr. Qi's escort, I'm not afraid-" Huazi jumped back to the cave, and Ji Yankun swung two punches at his back: "Rabbit cub, the guts are fat!"

Ji Yankun walked into the cave, his face returned to normal, and he sat beside Qi Yun: "Sir, are we really going to spend the winter in this cave?"

"If you want to be frozen into an ice sculpture, I don't mind. Qi Yun chuckled, but he knew that if there was a snow in the old forest, it would not melt for ten days and a half months, and the snow had not melted, and the snow would come again, if it snowed for a few days in a row, the snow on the ground would be waist-deep, and it would be tantamount to suicide if it was stumbling around in the forest at the moment.

"I don't want to be an ice sculpture, I have to go back to see my eldest brother!" Ji Yankun is an orphan, and in his heart, his eldest brother Ji Yanxin is his only relative. Especially after the Myanmar plastic surgery, the two of them have almost identical appearances, this feeling is getting stronger and stronger.

"Then stay there obediently!" Qi Yun closed his eyes and recuperated, and Huazi said, "Let's have a hibernation too!"

"Pull it down, do you know what hibernation is? You can stand it if you don't eat or drink? In less than two days, you kid will have to jump to your feet, and you have to stuff dog shit into your mouth when you grab it!" Ji Yankun glanced at Huazi, threw two sticks of firewood into the fire, and felt cold at night.

"That's not necessarily!" Huazi retorted unconvinced, and Ji Yankun took over: "That's good, since Ming'er, you will start not eating or drinking - hibernation, I want to see how long you can suffer!"

"Brother Kun, that's not fair, I just emptied it today, and I don't have anything left in my stomach, so let me fill my belly!" Speaking of eating, Huazi already felt hungry, unconsciously covered his abdomen, and thought: The night is long, how can I stay up until I eat the next meal of roasted game!

Ji Yankun looked at the fire and was concerned, thinking about his eldest brother Ji Yanxin: Big brother, when will I be able to walk out of the mountain and reunite with you!

After four or five months of living in the cave, the three of them finally ushered in the season of melting ice and snow, and they were ready to go.

I don't know how long I walked, and when I entered a valley, Ji Yankun felt that this place seemed to have been here: "Sir, this place, I am so familiar!"

Hua Zi was shocked in his heart: "Shouldn't we go back to the hinterland of the Forbidden Valley again?"

Qi Yun looked around and said affirmatively, "Don't worry, this is a new place!"

Ji Yankun was full of doubts in his heart, and he was carefully checking all the way, and suddenly exclaimed: "Sir, this is the valley under the cliff behind the mountain behind our base camp!"

"Really?" Qi Yun was overjoyed.

"It's true! Do you remember one time Qi Hong fell off a cliff? I've been here, and not far in front of me, there is a big, deep cave, and the terrain is very high-" Ji Yankun cried with joy, and unknowingly arrived at the door of his house.

"If that's the case, we'll be saved!" Qi Yun took the lead and quickened his pace, and Ji Yankun and Huazi followed behind with joy.

Holding a torch made of branches into the cave, Huazi exclaimed: "Mr. Qi, Brother Kun, come and see, there are a lot of things here-"

Qi Yun and Ji Yankun rushed over when they heard the sound, looked at a pile of wooden boxes, and burst into tears, they all recognized that this was the wooden box where the base camp stored food.
