Chapter Eighty-Four: The King Summoned Me to Patrol the Mountains
"Bang!" the crunch of dry branches was piercing and abrupt in the quiet mountains, and the heartbeat stopped instantly.
"Who?!" The three of them were startled, and their voices were turned back, as if they were frozen, and they waited for the soldier behind them to approach step by step.
Is it to run or to fight......
"Who are you?" asked the soldier again.
Xia Zhuyi touched his hair, handed Wang Jingxing a wooden needle, and the three of them turned around and entered a state of preparation for battle.
Wang Jingxing opened the fan with a calm face, and arched his hand with a smile,
"My cousin and I traveled so far in the autumn, and we never wanted to get here, so I asked my brother to show us the way. With that, he grabbed Xia Zhuyi's waist and was ready to protect her during the fight.
"You ...... Lost?" said the soldier, looking delighted, "You say, you're from outside?"
The soldier's reaction confused the three of them, and Wang Jingxing responded tentatively, "People in Linxi City, lost ......"
Xia Zhuyi also saw a little way, and said in Sichuan dialect first,
"Pot (brother), listen to the accent, are you Yuyang or Yuyin?...... To tell you the truth, my family didn't agree with me and my cousin, we secretly met in the mountains, and we walked too far in order to find Qingjing, and I met you by mistake, this wilderness, are you hunting here?"
As he spoke, he put his hands up and down, and reported Wang Jingxing to his arms, touching and rubbing in his arms, and Brother Wang, who was rubbing, rolled his eyes.
The soldier was a little excited, "Big sister, I'm from Yuyang, I haven't been back for two years", his face was frustrated, he secretly looked around, found that there was no one, and whispered, "Dig black mines here, don't let us out." I also thought about running away before, but the brothers who ran out were either killed on the road or were found and killed, and I didn't dare to run away."
"I didn't expect Linxi to be so close to this. ”
Wang Jingxing pretended to be surprised, "What kind of mine is the black mine, does it matter if you don't know?"
"It's too dangerous here, you go quickly, if you can go back, help me take the Zhangjia Village belt on the outskirts of Yuyang City, find the village head Zhang Lao Er's family to bring a few words, just say I'm fine, let's go." ”
Zhangjiacun was not the place where they stayed that night? There was no time to ask in detail, the three of them nodded straight and said yes, fortunately in misfortune, bowed goodbye, and walked back with the cat bent on their waists.
"Stop!" another hurried and rugged scolding rang out from behind him.
Immediately after that, the horn sounded, one passed two, two passed three, the sound sounded from near to far, and the relay race sounded layer by layer.
Time stood still, breathing heavily, cold sweat dripping, it's over, it's over, and I really can't run away now.
A tall and burly man suddenly appeared in the air in front of him, followed by two younger brothers who were still blowing the horn, and when he looked at his dress, he knew that he was a patrol soldier of a higher rank.
"Sixth foreman......" the middle-aged soldier called out in fear.
The man strode over, whipped the soldier on him, and said, "Eat things inside and outside, and want to go out to ventilate and report,"
looked at Wang Jingxing and his party with straight eyes, "If you lie a lot, you can deceive this brainless hillbilly, this place is remote and the way is impassable, you can still make an appointment here for a date, say!What is the purpose of your search here?"
"Brother, folks, don't you be so fierce, what do you want to bring to the house, I will help you convey it. ”
"Less nonsense, take away!"
Zhu Yi was really scared, and instantly thought that when a woman entered this black mine, she would not be reduced to a plaything.
glanced at Wang Jingxing beside him, but he still looked indifferent, and when he saw her, he gave her a reassuring smile, so he happily followed the man, and Xia Zhusan followed him in two steps and dragged his arm.
Wang Jingxing is very open-minded, since he has seen through it, then he can adapt to the situation when he comes, and he can take this opportunity to take a peek inside.
What a good opportunity, there may be a lot of organs in it, and you may not find a way out like a maze, but follow the "six foremen", turn around, and hit the nest directly, saving the trouble of exploring the route.
Wu An sighed that the road was so detouring, and the master had handed over the task of exploring the pit to himself earlier, and he didn't know how much effort it would take.
At this time, the sky was already numb and dark, and a green mountain was split straight through the middle, revealing a gray-brown color. At the bottom of the mountain, there is a huge pit, and there are more than a dozen pit and mine roads in the pit.
The mining site, which had been searched for many days, was finally revealed, and everyone's nervousness and fear were mixed with joy.
He was taken to a thatched hut with a dim oil lamp lit. A few mermaids rushed in, not like prisoners who had been escorted, but as indifferent as invited guests.
The room was dim, and a man in his thirties, with a meaty face and a beard, was scolding and eating.
The black, sticky, greasy table was about to fall apart, and there was a bowl of muddy wine, a plate of peanuts, a plate of pickles, a few bacon bones with little meat, a plate of oilless greens, and a few yellowed and black nests.
With just one glance, Wang Jingxing understood that the conditions here were extremely difficult, and even the treatment of the head was so poor.
"Big brother", the sixth foreman hugged his fist at him, "I found these three sneaky people outside the mountain, Zhang Lao Er ate inside and outside and wanted to pass the news outside", kicked the middle-aged soldier and continued, "Look at them are wearing fine silk, in the wilderness, very suspicious, whether to hand it over to the top, please ask the eldest brother to decide."
The second master snorted from his throat, waved his hand, and hated iron for not being made of steel, "Lao Zhang, be honest, don't take an example, go out!" He was also very helpless to this fellow.
The first two little Qiu'er kicked at the crook of the three people's legs, "I don't salute when I see our second master." ”
Wang Jingxing subconsciously thought that the sixth foreman was the title of the leader of the miners, and the second leader was the title of the mountain bandit, or the leader of a certain force organization.
So......
Zhu Yi was kicked and knelt on the ground and frowned. Wang Jingxing's legs were stiff, he still straightened up, smiled slightly, and saluted the second master, "I have been looking up to the second master for a long time, and I am fortunate to meet you." ”
The second master threw the chopsticks, and the fierce light shuttled back and forth on the three of them.
"Who are you??How did you get here?"
"It's not easy to meet you. ”
The second master frowned, thought carefully for a while, sneered, and spoke slowly
"Looking for me, why am you looking for me, if you say it well, Lao Tzu will let you go today, if you don't say it well, Lao Tzu hasn't eaten fresh meat for a long time." ”
Wang Jingxing smiled disapprerovingly, "In the past few years, the difficult conditions here have made your temper even more irritable?"
It seems that something was said, and it seems that nothing was said.
"Tell the point!" the second master roared, and when he talked about his difficult conditions, he became angry.
Wang Jingxing had already guessed his identity.
