Meimei slept beautifully, and when she woke up the next day, she was already three poles old, Lao Hu and Wang Fatzi were not on the kang, they were not as big as Qin Luo, and they could sleep peacefully for so long without money.

"Little brother, wake up! Let's wash your face and eat! Yanzi still spoke to him in the tone of her sister, it was the farming season, and she was not working in the fields, washing clothes.

"Good! Thank you, Sister Swallow! Qin Luo said and picked up the coarse grain steamed buns, and asked while eating, "Sister Yanzi, what about Lao Hu?" ”

In this era, there is no fine grain, the swallow family is relatively wealthy, and there are coarse grains to eat, of course, this is related to the archaeological team hiring men in the village to work, and the salary of three yuan a day is not low, after all, the current price is only a few cents for an egg.

"Brother Hu and the fat man seem to have gone to the river over there!" As she spoke, she pointed to a small river not far away.

At the mouth of the conversation, Lao Hu and Wang Fatzi walked into the fence courtyard side by side, and saw the two of them walking with the wind, full of spirit, and wanted to do a big job, they knew that they had the idea of fighting the Kwantung Army fortress, but Qin Luo did not break it.

"Come on! Xiao Luo, my brother has something to tell you! The fat man did not wait for him to speak, but took him into the house.

"Alas! Alas! Don't pull me, I'm eating! ”

Qin Luo said and grabbed another coarse grain steamed bun and stuffed it into his mouth, only to be dragged into the room by Wang Fatzi, and the swallow was straight to watch.

Sure enough, the two of them came to him to discuss the matter of going to the Kwantung Army fortress, Qin Luo naturally had no choice, although it was very dangerous in the original plot, but this time he was there, and a red-haired monster was not to be feared.

After the three of them discussed, they did not hide the old branch secretary, and they still needed the help of his old man in this matter.

Although the old branch secretary was sometimes confused, he did not refuse them, not only lent them three horses very generously, but also asked the only hunter in the village to lead the way for them, and fortunately someone led the way, otherwise they would not even be able to find a place.

According to the rules of Captain Touching Jin, the three of them prepared glutinous rice, black donkey hooves, rice vinegar and other messy things in case of emergency.

As expected, the one who led the way for them was a handsome-looking girl who was only sixteen or seventeen years old, claiming to be called Yingzi, and they had known each other when they had been in the queue before.

Yingzi not only brought a double-barreled shotgun, but also three mastiffs and four hounds, these seven guys have good combat effectiveness, and generally speaking, hounds can only catch ordinary prey like foxes and rabbits.

Mastiffs are completely different, they are larger, their muscles are bulging, and they look extremely fierce, Ju Yingzi said, the three mastiffs join forces, even if the wild boar and the bear are blind, they have to retreat.

In this way, the safety of the three of them was greatly guaranteed, and Yingzi led the way, and the speed along the way was very fast.

Two days later, the group passed through the flat snowfield, into the deep mountains and old forests, the road conditions became worse and worse, the four of them had to walk forward, so after walking for another two days, they finally arrived at the savage ditch that the villagers said.

Barking! Barking!

As soon as they arrived at the savage ditch, several hounds barked in one direction, and the four of them thought they had met a savage, so they pulled out their guys and stared vigilantly ahead, at this time it was getting late, and they couldn't see what it was.

"Ah Da, Ah Er, up!"

Yingzi said hello, and the two mastiffs pounced fiercely on the grass, followed by the sound of fighting, and the three of them also ran over, but saw the two mastiffs one after the other, tearing a huge black-skinned wild boar.

This wild boar not only has rough skin and thick meat, but also has a brute strength that should not be underestimated, and the two mastiffs can't help it.

"Come back!"

Yingzi said hello again, the two mastiffs ran back, followed by two gunshots, and the wild boar that was still angry just now fell to the ground like a deflated black ball, with less air in and more breath, and it looked like it was going to die, and in front of human firearms, the brute force of the beast seemed so vulnerable.

After seeing the boar fall, he did not hesitate to pull out his hunting knife and stab it into the heart of the wild boar, quickly ending its life.

"Cow! That's awesome! ”

The three of them were stunned to see Yingzi's fierce performance, and Hu Bayi, a company commander who had experienced the war, couldn't help but give a thumbs up and praise.

"Don't talk nonsense! Fat brother, tie it with a rope and pull it down to the river with a horse. Yingzi pulled out the hunting knife, which was already covered with red blood, and while wiping the blood, he didn't forget to direct them to work.

"Gotcha!"

Wang Fatzi and Hu Bayi took out ropes to tie up the wild boar, and Qin Luo led the horse over.

Together, the four of them cut off most of the boar's flesh, kept some for themselves, and fed the rest to the seven dogs, and finally threw the entrails into the river to be washed away, lest the smell of blood attract large beasts.

Even so, they did not dare to spend the night nearby, but walked more than three miles upstream before settling down, so that even large beasts would not come.

The savage ditch is said to be a ditch, but it is actually a canyon between two mountains, a full one or twenty miles lateral, but strangely there are not as many tall trees as outside.

The primeval forest at night was extremely dangerous, and the four of them decided to have a good night's rest first, and it would not be too late to explore tomorrow morning, anyway, they had time.

After eating, Yingzi began to tell them the origin of the name Savage Ditch, which was originally called Dead Man Ditch, and a little earlier it was called Touyue Ditch.

Originally, it was the burial place of the Liao State during the Northern Song Dynasty, and later the Mongols broke the army of the Jin people nearby, slaughtered tens of thousands, and the dead bodies were thrown into the Touyue Ditch, so the Touyue Ditch was renamed the Dead Man's Ditch.

Decades ago, the villagers inadvertently discovered that there were wild people in the dead man's ditch, so it was rumored to be the wild man's ditch.

At this time, the moon is in the sky, cloudless, and the sky is full of stars and spots dotted with the night sky, which is extremely beautiful.

Hu Bayi, who was listening to Yingzi's words, looked at the stars in the sky, his heart moved, he quickly found a compass from his backpack, and gestured to the stars in the sky, the surprise on his face became bigger and bigger, causing others to ask questions.

"Fat man, Xiao Luo, do you know why this place was called Zhuyuegou back then?" Hu Bayi smiled and sold the guanzi, pointed to the savage ditch and asked them.

"I don't know!" The fat man shook his head very calmly, how could he know about unfounded things.

However, Qin Luo was not used to Hu Bayi, and said directly: "Isn't it just that when you look at it from a distance, these two mountains are holding the moon like arms!" ”

"Ahem! Or Xiao Luo is smart! ”

Hu Bayi originally wanted to pretend to be one, but he didn't expect to be debunked by Qin Luo, and coughed embarrassedly twice, but according to his family legend of the "Sixteen-Character Yin and Yang Feng Shui Secret Technique" to explain the feng shui topography of Savage Ditch, and deduced that there are likely to be tombs of generals and princes under Savage Ditch.
