Chapter 102: The Quarry
Jing Zhiyi and Bai Guo walked through the mountains and forests, not because there were no mountain roads, but because they didn't dare to walk, they could only walk in the dark with one foot deep and one foot shallow. Bypassing from Beishan, near the mountain road that had to go east from Jingjiagou, Baiguo, who was walking in front, stopped. He whispered to Jing Zhiyi's ear:
"Shaodong, you just stay here, don't make any noise, let's go to the front and have a look, if you meet the Japanese, you must not come out."
"Then you should be careful!" Jing Zhiyi whispered in the dark.
Bai Guo showed his tossing and turning skills, and disappeared after only a few flashes. Bai Guo's kung fu, not to mention that in the deep mountains in early winter, the residual leaves on the branches trembled and made a sound under the agitation of the mountain wind, even in ordinary times, it was difficult to hear the sound of him walking!
Bai Guo did not go down the mountain, but stopped quite a distance from the mountain road below, and leaned motionless against the back of a pine tree. The two eyes are back and forth, left and right, and they go back and forth up and down the mountain. After a while, seeing that there was no movement, he returned the same way, beckoned Jing Zhiyi, and followed the direction of the mountain road, and kept walking down the mountain to the depths of the East Mountain. Further back, it is the boundary of Jing Zhiyi's original quartz mine. This place, not to mention how familiar Jing Zhiyi is, Bai Guo also came here when he was touching in this Jingjiagou one after the other a while.
At this moment, Jing Zhiyi realized that something was wrong. In those years, because of the opening of the mine, the mountain road from the Jing family to the mine was roughly repaired, but after the mine was abandoned, few people walked around with the carts and horses, and the mountain road was much more barren. But at this time, it was a brand-new gravel road extending in the direction of Jingjiagou. Needless to say, it must have been renovated by the Japanese who came into the mountains.
It turned out that all the GIs of the Japanese Kwantung Army Operation Corps were also young and strong, and they had all received some professional training in their work, and they had the strength and strength to do their work, so that their efficiency was also high. They built this road, not from the road in Jingjiagou Street, but set aside a section for those people in Jingjiagou and nearby Tunzi to repair, and the operation team first repaired the mountain road in the place they had chosen to do things. Right down the hill, standing there brightly and brightly. The Japanese did not need to transport any sand and gravel from other places outside the mountains to build roads, all of them were made of local materials, and the abandoned sand and gravel that Jing Zhiyi's family originally opened was screened and used to pave the roads.
Jing Zhiyi and Bai Guo turned a mountainside, and they could already see the original mine of Jing Zhiyi's family, and the abandoned rubble that had been piled up indiscriminately in the mine that had opened up the small half of the mountain was now all cleaned up. Bai Guo stood under the tree, going back and forth to the mountains and looking at the fields, there was nothing, and he was relieved, planning to get closer to the mine at the bottom of the mountain. But at this moment, his eyes seemed to be pierced by the light of something. He immediately stopped, and one hand suddenly pressed Jing Zhiyi beside him. Look in the direction the light came. Nothing. Neither of them moved, just stood in the dark, holding their breath. After a while, the light in the distance flashed again! This time, Bai Guo and Jing Zhiyi both saw it, and the light came from the forest above the mine on the opposite side!
In the woods on the hillside above the opposite mine, a shack was erected on several large trees close to each other, and someone stood in the shack, the light of which should have been the reflection of the bayonet on the gun.
Jing Zhiyi and Bai Guo both understood that this must be the sentry set up by those Japanese. Seeing this one, the two of them soon saw such a shack erected on a tree on the slope of the hill directly south of the mine, in the forest to the west of the mine, next to the edge of the mountain road!
Get! After working hard in the middle of the night, I finally caught you!
Jing Zhiyi and Bai Guo's courage is so big! It's like a wreck! At this time, neither of them panicked, but they were a little excited! Most of the night's work today has been in vain! It seems that the Japanese want to do something in Dongshan, this is for sure, what about the chosen place, that is, what these calves are going to do, for a while, I still can't see. Don't get stuck here, let's go back and think about it!
When the two of them returned to Jingjiagou, they didn't have to walk the way they came, they chose a shortcut, or quietly, went around to the backyard wall of Jing Zhiyi's house, and climbed over the wall into the courtyard to return to the house.
The two of them went to the wing room where Bai Guo lived first. I didn't dare to light the lights when I entered the house, but after listening to the fact that there was no movement outside, I untied my outfit the same. The two of them touched the darkness, smoking cigarettes and chattering softly. Actually, there's nothing to chirp about, there's just so much to see, and I don't know if I haven't seen it, so it's really not something that can be guessed randomly.
Jing Zhiyi and Bai Guo went up the mountain, Jing Jifu knew. When the two came back, Jing Jifu didn't hear any movement in the yard, but he knew that the two of them were back. Jing Zhiyi and Bai Guo were chattering in the dark room, when they heard someone knocking on the door gently, Jing Zhiyi heard it, and said in the house:
"Dad, here it is!"
When Jing Jifu entered the house, Jing Zhiyi asked his father to sit on the kang and said:
"Dad, why are you up?"
"I'm older, I'm young!" said, he didn't look at Jing Zhiyi, but said to Bai Guo, "What's the matter, don't you look at anything?" ”
Needless to say, this old man knew about the two of them going up the mountain. The two of them looked at each other in a daze, and it was okay not to say anything, just say it!
Jing Jifu listened to the two of them and didn't speak for a long time. After a while, he looked at Bai Guo again and asked:
"Big nephew, in your opinion, what is this Japanese going to do in Dongshan?"
"Uncle, the Japanese seem to want to build something in Higashiyama. It doesn't seem like you want to open a mine yet. In our opinion, there is no need to worry. Foxes are meant to show their tails after all. Let's think, if he really wants to do something, in a few days, then he will be exposed. This Japanese devil--" The word devil came out of Bai Guo's mouth, and Jing Jifu and Jing Zhiyi, the father and son, were obviously stunned for a moment. This is all in the eyes of Bai Guo.
Jing Jifu is the chief of Jingjiagou, it seems that he really takes himself as the chief of security!
Jing Jifu said:
"Big nephew, look at what you and our family Zhiyi have done today, I have to thank you. If you want to say that what you two are doing today is a dangerous thing, the uncle should have said that you two are, but the uncle thinks that what you two are doing today is a good thing. At present, the Japanese are building roads here and working in our eastern mountains. After all, the Japanese are foreigners, and we are different from us. Uncle's words, I don't dare to say it lightly! But uncle, when you dare to say! Why? Uncle can trust you! You are in our Jingjiagou, but you are doing a good deed. We are a family, and a family does not speak two words. The Japanese say openly that the day is full of family, and the day is full of goodwill, but what is done in the dark makes us not see what family is goodwill. This doesn't have to wait, the wicker ditch will let them kill one, if the iron egg doesn't meet you, then it's unpredictable. If this continues, we don't know how many people will die! Besides, the Japanese always occupy Dongshan like this, what do we Jingjiagou people use to cook! Isn't that a pause? If this Japanese really stays in our Dongshan for a long time, it will really be a thing. Uncle is telling you this today, I just hope you can help Jingjiagou a little! Uncle knows you have what it takes! Now in such a world, you say that you have the ability to do something for good people and make some efforts, what can you do if you have that ability? Empty body ability! Uncle doesn't know what you're thinking, Uncle thinks, what's next--"
