Leaving the scene of the "accident", Xiahou and the others returned along the mine road, and they ran into the fork in the road where there were arrows made of iron ore.

Seeing this mark again, Fei Gongfu remembered his previous experience of being deceived, so he asked Xiahou and Erdong: "You put the iron ore on this ground?" ”

As soon as he mentioned the arrows on the ground, Xiahou was angry, at that time, Erdong swore that the guarantee fee would be fooled, if he was really fooled, how could he come so quickly?

Maybe he wasn't fooled, he always chose the right path, otherwise there were so many forks in the road in the No. 9 mine, how could he find himself?

Thinking of this, in order not to be easily found next time, Xia Hou pretended to be a curious baby and asked, "Senior brother, how complicated is the terrain here, what a coincidence that you can meet us." ”

There was a rare opportunity to show himself, Fei Gongfu wanted to firmly grasp it, show his strength, and said: "What is the coincidence? It is not luck that finds you, but wisdom. ”

Seeing that Xiahou and they didn't react, Fei Gongfu had no choice but to continue: "You two lied to me in the first abandoned mine, I turned around and realized that something was wrong, and then I knew it was you as soon as I was sure outside." By the way, why are you lying to me again, what bad things have you done? ”

After listening to Fei Gongfu's words, Xiahou and the others denied it, pretending to be stupid and said: "No, it turns out that it was you who met in the abandoned mine, we were busy mining at the time, and we didn't care about who came." ”

Fei Gongfu didn't believe it, and always felt that they had secrets hiding from them, so he wanted to find out, and continued to ask: "Make up, continue to make up, if you didn't recognize me, why didn't you dare to turn back at that time?" ”

"We happened to find a mine at that time, and we were embarrassed to say it, we wanted to take it for ourselves, and we didn't want to share it with others, but we were afraid that we would know the same people behind it, and we would be embarrassed when we met. It's better for everyone not to meet, and leave after digging the iron ore, which will avoid hurting the harmony. After speaking, Xia Hou picked up the iron ore on the ground and put it into his bamboo basket.

Erdong also nodded in agreement: "Yes, if everyone knows each other when they meet, but the friendship is not to the point of dividing iron ore, how embarrassing it will be for everyone to do so, so it is better to drive him away before they recognize each other." Big brother, we didn't know it was you here at the time, I'm sorry. ”

Before, these two people tried every possible means to kill each other, and even carried it out, but now they suddenly completely changed, standing together and talking, there must be something wrong here.

But Fei Gongfu couldn't find out what the problem was, so he continued to ask: "Even if it's like what you said, then why throw the iron ore that you dug up with great difficulty to the ground and put it as an arrow to mislead me?" ”

This is placed in Erdong, Xiahou does not stick to the pan, so he looked at Erdong and asked him to give Fei Gongfu an explanation.

The arrows were placed by themselves, and Erdong had to come out and explain by himself: "Senior brother, you misunderstood, after you left, we thought about it, and felt that the voice was so familiar, and suddenly remembered that it was your voice, so we left the arrows and instructed you to catch up with us." No, didn't you find us by the arrow's instructions? ”

After speaking, Erdong pointed to the ground and signaled, if it weren't for the guidance of this arrow left on the ground, Fei Gongfu might have gone wrong.

Fei Gongfu said: "This arrow is right, pointing to the right way." But that arrow in front of me is pointing to the wrong path, and if it weren't for the fact that the branch road is not long, I wouldn't have been able to find you. ”

Listening to Fei Gongfu's words, Xiahou and Erdong glanced at each other: it turned out that the branch mine where the first arrow was located was short, no wonder he could catch up.

Erdong said embarrassedly: "Senior brother, we know that the branch road is short, I put the mark first, and then walked into the branch road." It was so short, so we retreated, went back to the main mine, and continued walking. But when I came out, I forgot to remove the mark for a while, and the big brother who hurt me ran away in vain, I'm really sorry. ”

After listening to Erdong's explanation, Fei Gongfu recognized his true colors: lying repeatedly.

Fei Gongfu didn't tear him down, continued to listen, and continued to ask: "Even if what you say is true, then why don't you leave a mark at the intersection of the branch mine road and the main mine road you walked?" ”

"I forgot, and the iron ore is gone, so we forgot, and we didn't stay. It wasn't until I encountered the fork in the road again that I dug up the iron ore again, and as soon as we found the iron ore, we immediately left a mark. By the way, Senior Brother, there is no mark at the intersection of this branch mine road and branch ore road, how did you find it? Erdong was not easy to explain, so he changed the subject.

Fei Gongfu said: "After coming out of your first false arrow, I decided to try my luck when I saw the first branch road. I didn't expect you to choose this branch of the mine, and then I saw the mark you left behind, so I followed it. ”

Listening to his words, Xia Hou felt that the opportunity had come, so he provoked a little: "Senior brother, you were deceived once by the mark left by the second senior brother, and you dare to continue to follow his mark?" ”

After listening to Xiahou's words, Fei Gongfu suddenly realized that they were reconciled on the surface, but there were still contradictions in essence.

In order to avoid embarrassment, without waiting for Fei Gongfu to reply, Erdong immediately came out and interjected: "Senior brother, how long are you going to serve hard labor in Mine No. 9?" I am one month, and Xiahou is three months. ”

Fei Gongfu replied: "Three days, why have you been fined so much? ”

Seeing that the topic was changed, Erdong continued: "Senior brother, it is a trivial matter for you to drink secretly, and it is normal to be punished for three days, but we are guilty of fighting. There were a few miscellaneous disciples who bullied Xiahou for being new, and I couldn't look past it, so I helped Xiahou beat them up, so we came in because of beating the same door. ”

Hearing his words, Xia Hou burst into tears: You originally wanted to fight me, but fortunately, I reacted quickly and escaped, so you accidentally injured a miscellaneous disciple. If you say that now, do you still want to be ashamed?

After listening to Erdong's words and looking at Xiahou's expression, Fei Gongfu said with a mocking expression: "It turns out that you have fought together, no wonder your relationship is so good." ”

Erdong patted his chest and said arrogantly: "Of course, Xiahou and I are iron buddies, and we have a good relationship." By the way, the eldest brother is our eldest brother, so the relationship is even more needless. In the past, the senior brother took care of us, so let's report back this time and help the senior brother complete the task first. We promise that the elder brother will be able to go out in three days, and if I stay one more day, I will not be surnamed Er. ”

In the end, Erdong put forward his ultimate idea, fortunately, Fei Gongfu only had a three-day hard labor period, as long as he was out, there would only be one Xiahou left, didn't he let himself do whatever he wanted?
