Chapter 59: The Art of Ghosts and Gods

Meng Yi's eyes were full of admiration when he looked at his father, Great Qin and Great Wei went to war, needless to say, how chaotic the situation was, Meng Zhan was able to open up the situation in this chaotic situation, it was indeed beyond the reach of ordinary people!

"Father, then there was Mengjiabao?" Meng Yi wondered, twenty years ago he was just an infant baby, how would he know this!

Meng Zhan nodded, looked at Meng Yi, and asked, "Does Yi'er know what our Mengjiabao area is often jokingly called?"

"The land of ghost mines!" replied Meng Yi, who had often heard the old people of Mengjiabao mention the term.

"Yes, it's indeed the land of ghost mines!" Meng Zhan said: "Of course, the land of ghost mines is just a joke, and our area belongs to the 'Moling Mountain' area!"

"There are many mines in the Moling Mountain area, and the area is very large, spanning seven or eight county capitals! It stands to reason that so many ore veins are concentrated in one place, it should be a rich place! It's a pity...... However, this place borders the border of the Great Wei, the distance is very close, and the war is constant all year round. Later, Great Qin simply abandoned this place and became a buffer zone between Great Qin and Great Wei!" The Meng Zhan General told the history of the Moling Mountain area.

"Twenty years ago, the Great Qin and the Great Wei fought for three years, completely disrupting the rules in this area!

"Da Qin turned a blind eye to this, and didn't pay attention to it at all!" Meng Zhan said: "Your father had someone rich at that time, and he was not willing to lag behind, and after a bloody battle, he took the current black iron concentrate in Mengjiabao!"

Meng Zhan raised his hands, sighed, and said, "Father's hands look white, but in fact, I don't know how much blood they have stained!"

"It was at that time that the land of the ghost mine got its name, because there are a lot of white bones buried under every pit here!"

Meng Yi was fascinated by what he heard, and this was the first time he had listened so carefully to the history of Moling Mountain and how Mengjiabao rose.

Father Meng Zhan was in that era, and on the stage that belonged to Moling Mountain, he could be regarded as a rare hero!

"Father, now that Great Qin and Great Wei haven't been at war for more than ten years, why are they still letting the Moling Mountain area go unattended?" asked Meng Yi.

Meng Zhan sneered, "Who said that the imperial court doesn't care? All the walled forts in the area of Moling Mountain have to pay a fixed amount of mining tax to the imperial court every year! If we are lucky, we can have a lot of surplus, but if we are unlucky, we will not be so good within a year!"

"Quota mining tax?" Meng Yi looked surprised, the so-called quota means that no matter how much you produce, you must pay the required amount every year, and one pound or two is indispensable!

Meng Yi has been studying in a single courtyard all these years, and rarely participates in the affairs of Mengjiabao, so he really doesn't know much about these things!

However, he knew that the cost of mining was extremely high, and the risk was also extremely high, and it was all dug up by the villagers of Mengjiabao desperately!

"The Confucianism in the DPRK and China is fighting very loudly, if there is another war between Great Qin and Great Wei, our walled forts will inevitably bear the brunt. In order to keep the family business, can you not fight to the death to resist the enemy? Moreover, with our people resisting, Daqin will have a chance to breathe, and he can calmly dispatch troops and horses, and there will be no loss in the slightest!" Meng Zhan said.

"Is this a ploy of the great Confucians?" Meng Yi was stunned, in his impression, every great Confucian was upright, and conspiracy was not their specialty!

Meng Zhan glanced at his son, "You have the same power as them, and you may have the opportunity to rank above the court with them in the future, and you will know when the time comes." ”

......

Following!

Meng Yi left Mengjiabao and led people to the 'Diyan Cave' located fifteen miles southeast of Mengjiabao.

There are many hot fires in this place, there is no grass all year round, regardless of spring, summer, autumn and winter, it is extremely hot, and few people will take the initiative to come here.

Meng Yi and the others walked into an inconspicuous hole in the Diyan Cave, where the passage was rugged, and they needed to light torches to see the way ahead.

After going deep into the distance of about 100 zhang, the eyes suddenly lit up, and a large space with a radius of dozens of zhang was presented in front of everyone.

Meng Yi stood in the cave and let out a long breath of relief, not far from the foothold was a lava fire pool, and the crimson light rendered the entire cave into a fiery red color.

Everyone extinguished the torches and looked at this mysterious cave together!

Meng Kuo stood beside him with a confused expression, and behind him there were also several children of the Meng family.

Meng Wenshan, the uncle of the Meng family who had just broken through to the realm of Dacheng, also followed.

"I said Meng Yi, what are you bringing us here for?" Meng Kuo looked at the cave in front of him in a daze.

He looked at it and saw about thirty black-clothed dead soldiers in the cave.

It's just that these people are all pierced through their eyebrows and died!

Meng Kuo recognized them, they were all the dead soldiers who attacked Mengjiabao day and night!

Meng Wenshan also noticed it, looked at them and pointed at them, and said with emotion: "The cultivation of the person who made the move is so high, it is really only seen in his life!"

That day and night, Meng Wenshan naturally also participated in the battle, knowing that a mysterious master suddenly appeared to rescue Mengjiabao, and he has always been grateful for this matter in his heart!

A few juniors looked hateful, and many Mengjiabao people died at the hands of these executioners that day and night!

Meng Yi looked at a few people, and said: "The next thing to do is the great secret of my Meng family, even the Xue family and the Li family no one knows! Even if we are the Meng family, except for me and my father Meng Zhan, there are only a few people left who know about this!"

"Remember, this matter must not be leaked to the outside world, not even your parents and relatives!" Meng Yi looked solemn!

Seeing Meng Yi so solemn, Meng Kuo and a few people couldn't help but start to face it squarely!

Meng Wenshan stood aside with a smile, he had never seen any strong winds and waves, but when he saw Meng Yi so solemn, he was also curious.

Meng Kuo glared and said, "Then you should always tell us what this is going to do, right?"

Meng Yi nodded, pointed to a series of equipment that Uncle Qian had secretly placed for him next to the lava fire pool, and said: "I have obtained a secret method, which is the 'Bronze Man's Technique', as long as it can be refined, these Bronze Men will be infinitely powerful and have unparalleled defenses, which can help me attack the city of Mengjiabao!"

Hearing this, several people couldn't help but widen their eyes, and even Meng Wenshan, the uncle, was shocked at the moment!

"Really, fake, what bronze man is so powerful, you can't fall for charlatans, right?" Meng Kuo looked incredulous, how could what Meng Yi said sound like a ghost and god's magic? It seems so unreal!

Meng Yi knew that he didn't believe it, so he casually said: "Don't worry, this secret technique is our Meng family's ancestral secret technique, how can you be deceived!"

"The ancestral secret technique of the Meng family?"

Several people looked at each other, why hadn't they heard the old people mention that the Meng family still had this kind of secret technique?

Meng Wenshan was also suspicious, not to mention this kind of thing, not to mention covering a few juniors, even he, an old generation, had never heard of it at all!

Meng Yi snorted and said with a smile: "Don't care so much, just do it!"

Meng Kuo didn't bother to care where he got the secret technique, and said straightforwardly: "Say, what do you want us to do?"
