Chapter Ninety-Seven: Cave Horror

As soon as the pillar saw Qi Hong. It's like seeing a lost treasure. The two of them huddled together. Have mixed feelings.

Time. The horror and fear of the two people. Intertwined. It's hard to tell.

Xia Jinzhong looked at them. Shook his head and walked away. Children's world. Or leave it to themselves.

The door that fell to the ground has been repaired. Ji Yankun ordered it before leaving. Be sure to fix it before the big brother sees it. Otherwise. No mercy. Two men carried tools. Three times five divided by two is done.

The pillars cover the door. Pulling Qi Hong into the quilt. Qi Hong stood motionless in front of the bed.

The pillar asked, "What's wrong with you?" Not sleepy. ”

Qi Hong embarrassedly pointed to the pants with urine stains. The pillar smelled of stench. He pointed at him and laughed, "You... ”

He smiled. Qi Hong became more and more embarrassed. I was also depressed. He said angrily, "You go and try." Hung in mid-air all night. It's not good. You're not as good as me. Maybe the shit and pee got a mess. ”

Only then did the pillar realize that he had lost his temper. He jumped out of bed. Put on your coat. Rummaged through the cabinets to find a pair of longer pants. Pulling Qi Hong and running out of the door.

He fetched hot water. Qi Hong took a happy bath. Hot water poured over his tattered skin. It hurt so much that he grinned.

The pillars were waiting outside. I saw Qi Hong come out. I always feel awkward looking at him. I don't know where it's wrong. Look at him from head to toe. Only then did he realize that the pants on his legs were a lot shorter. Most of the white legs and stomachs are exposed.

He clapped his hands. Laughing back and forth. Qi Hong looked at his strange appearance. And smirked.

Ji Yanxin stood in the distance and watched them. There was a smile on his face. Soon his cold face returned.

As soon as the pillar looked up. I found that the godfather was looking at them with a cold face. was so frightened that he pulled up Qi Hong and ran. Ran back to the house in a hurry. Qi Hong also looked at him inexplicably.

"Look at what. Let me tell you. My godfather is fierce. Never get angry with me. But I'm just afraid of him. The pillar said with palpitations.

"What are you afraid of? My dad is also fierce. But I'm not afraid. Qi Hong said nonchalantly.

"I'm afraid. We'll see. In the future. You must not be afraid of him. It's really not afraid. The pillar gave him an unhappy look. Sink into the covers.

Qi Hong also went to bed. Two people, you squeeze me. I'll squeeze you. After a while, I fell asleep with my head on my head.

……

Ji Yanxin couldn't see Ji Yankun. I wondered. Where did you go?

He sent someone to call Xia Jinzhong to interrogate. Xia Jinzhong came out of the bed that was not hot in a daze. Yawned and walked up to Ji Yanxin.

"Big brother. You.. Find me. Xia Jinzhong didn't finish his words. A yawn struck. Split his words in half.

"What time has it been? He didn't look like he woke up. Ji Yanxin looked at him sharply.

Xia Jinzhong couldn't help but feel weak. The eldest brother is the most intolerant of the laziness of the brothers. He didn't dare to quibble. Subconsciously lowered his head to avoid his gaze.

"Ah Kun. Ji Yanxin's voice softened.

"Brother Kun. Probably down the mountain. Last night. He also said that Jian Bing went down the mountain to find out the news. Gone forever. He'd have to take a look. Xia Jinzhong didn't dare to look up. He was afraid of meeting the boss's gaze. will make his lies nowhere to hide.

"I have time to train my brothers. Raise soldiers for a thousand days and use them for a while. You see which country is sleeping. ”

"Yes. Eldest brother. There was no trace of scolding in Ji Yanxin's words. But it made Xia Jinzhong feel embarrassed.

"Go ahead. Do what you have to do. ”

"Yes. Eldest brother. Xia Jinzhong turned around. Yawns and tears welled up together. Sleepiness and exhaustion eroded his body. He's like a smoker. General malaise.

Even so. Still, he insisted on gathering all the brothers. Routine daily exercises. He felt. What the eldest brother said was right. Usually don't work. It's time to make it critical. will be a ghost. People like them who wander the rivers and lakes. His life was tied to the belt of his trousers. At any time, you may never be able to pick it up again.

……

Ji Yankun personally led people down to the bottom of the canyon. They searched along the way. Soon came to the mouth of the cave. He led the way inside. Walked for a while. He then commanded, "Light the torch." ”

Guided by the light of the torches. They continued to walk inside. He casually glanced at the cave wall. Suddenly stopped.

He reached out and took the torch. Shine on the rock wall. Lean over to look. The golden light pierced his eyes. His heart rejoiced: Do you say? There is a gold mine hidden here.

The other brothers were just surprised. I don't know what it is. Ji Yankun did not stretch. Keep going. Just go all the way. Intentionally or unintentionally, he scanned the rock wall along the way.

Go further inside. The terrain gets complicated. Look at the dozen or so bifurcation holes, large and small. I don't know where to look.

Ji Yankun stopped. The others followed and stopped behind him.

He thought to himself: There are only five of us in our group. Separate lanes. Torches will deplete quickly. If the torch burns out. In this dark day. In a labyrinthine hole. I can't get out of it. Presumably. That's the brother. It was also into this cave. In the absence of lighting. Lost. Off the beaten track like this. It's hard to say if any ferocious creatures are hiding. It's better to be careful.

Think for a moment. He closed his eyes. Feel the darkness for a moment. And it captures the feeling. Open your eyes. He led the group towards the slightly larger hole on the right. Walked for a while. The foot becomes a slope. He raised his torch and shone it. The front is getting steeper and steeper. It's easy to walk into. I have to come up again. I'm afraid it's hard.

Ji Yankun decisively ordered everyone to evacuate. They had just retreated to the previous main cave. Suddenly, I heard a hoarse scream: "Ahh Yes.. ”

Yes.. Yes..

The echo of the cave rushed towards their eardrums. An inexplicable panic struck my heart. So that the heart of each of them hangs in the throat. It could pop up at any moment.

Even a well-informed person like Ji Yankun who has killed countless people. Now. The heart is also restless. There were already more timid people running back. Ji Yankun stood in place. Prick up your ears and listen. After the echo. Dead silence was restored in the cave. There is an occasional ticking, ticking, dripping sound.

He knows it. This person. He has died in Huangquan. I just don't know. What exactly is it. He let out such a terrible scream.

He held a torch. Walk briskly towards the exit. As for him. He is the one who leads the brethren. It can't be like them. In case of any emergency. He had to hold his breath. Maintain majesty; Only he knows the fear in his heart. It's like wind under your feet. Steps like shooting stars.

Out of the hole. It doesn't mean it's safe. He directed the evacuation of the brethren. And he. Still in the final formation.

Back to the top of the cliff. The brethren were all disgraced. The fear is not yet gone. But no one dared to say half a word. Because Brother Kun has already sealed his mouth about them. The order must not be uttered half a word.

The fear in my heart is unbearable. But you can't spit it out. It's an inhuman ordeal.

The brethren at the top of the cliff saw their expressions. Extremely surprised. But no one dared to ask for half a word.

Ji Yankun led everyone back with a dark face. Along. He was thinking about one question: this thing. Do you want to tell the big brother. Ji Yanxin. Say. Be sure to pull the pillar and Qi Hong out; After all, there was a human life. Can't hide it.

Ponder over. Still, he decided to focus on the big picture. Report the matter to the eldest brother as it is. Even. All will be punished. It must also be done.

After going back. The frightened brothers. Frightened into the bed. Wrap your body tightly. A quilt that shakes like chaff. It caused a lot of doubtful eyes and speculation.

Ji Yankun walked straight into Ji Yanxin's house. Forgot to knock on the door.

Ji Yanxin raised his eyes and looked at him. I noticed that his face was wrong. A cloud of doubt rose in my heart. I thought to myself. Is there something going on on Jian Bing's side?

"Big brother. I have something to confess to you. Ji Yankun said with a solemn face.

Say. Ji Yanxin's face suddenly became gloomy.

"We have a brother who is gone. Died in a cave at the bottom of the back mountain canyon. I couldn't get his body back. Ji Yankun felt very guilty. Every brethren. In his heart. They are like brothers and sisters.

Syllable..

"What are you guys doing. Xia Jinzhong also helps you cover. Even he had learned to lie. Ji Yanxin raised his hand and slapped him in the face. Scolded angrily.

"Big brother. It's all because I can't discipline it. Punish me. I am willing to be punished. Ji Yankun admitted his mistake. Take all the blame on yourself.

"You remember how hard it took us to come back. Is it for what. The battle has not yet been fought. He folded his soldiers first. It's worth it. Ji Yanxin shouted outside angrily: "Go and call Xia Jinzhong to me." ”

The people standing guard outside the house heard a noise in the house. I have already been focused. Now. Betake oneself to one's heels. Pulling the Xia Jin bell and running back.

Xia Jinzhong was confused by him. He asked, "It's all over the place." What's going on. ”

"Brother Jin Zhong. I don't know. Big brother got angry. Looking for you. Brother Kun is also being trained inside. ”

"Brother Kun. Xia Jinzhong's heart is counted. Something must have happened. The matter was revealed.

Xia Jin Zhong knocked on the door and entered. met Ji Yanxin's gaze as sharp as a sword. He shuddered. Step forward quickly. Standing next to Ji Yankun. Waiting to be punished.

"It's the other way around. Seemingly. You really don't take me as a big brother seriously. Ji Yanxin paced back and forth. The blade of the gaze stabbed at them.

The two of them stood upright. Don't dare to slack off.

"Which of you will tell you what happened. There is not a single lie. ”

"Me. ”

I said. ”

The two men spoke in unison. Rush to answer.

Ji Yanxin's face was gloomy. said: "The heart is quite aligned. Okay. I will fulfill you. Said one by one. Who came first. ”

Both remained silent. No one answered again.

Ji Yanxin's heart. It's angry and funny. I thought: It's quite tacit.

He glared angrily. Stared at Ji Yankun. said: "You are their boss. You say it. ”

Ji Yankun understood. Things have come to this point. There can be no concealment. Otherwise. All the people have to suffer with it. these years. The eldest brother's temperament is sometimes good and sometimes bad. It's unpredictable.

He told the whole story. Hold one's breath. Waiting for the drop.

I saw Ji Yanxin's brows furrowed. Moment. He shouted, "Go and fetch me that little thing from the pillar." ”

Ji Yankun and Xia Jin Zhong looked at each other. Restless. It doesn't matter if they are punished. Hold on. Can. The pillar is still a child. How the eldest brother will punish him.
