After eating, the sky had turned dark, and the stars twinkled in the vast night sky overhead.

Everyone stationed in the camp at the foot of the mountain began to get busy again.

The swarthy Liu brothers are the initiators of this inverted fight, so they decide the big and small things, and it is Liu Da who has a matchmaker on his face, who handed me a simple tent and told us: "Set up the tent and rest, and start work early tomorrow morning." After saying that, he walked away without looking back.

The cigarette man followed Liu Da's footsteps with a cigarette in his mouth and left, and the fat man and I had to start setting up our tents. While setting up the tent, the fat man complained: "We have been working for a long time to serve as a little brother for others." Why did the little brother do such a thing? ”

I looked around, and everyone else had begun to sleep in the tent, except for the emaciated man, who seemed to be a resentful woman, still sitting on the trunk of a big tree, looking up at the moon quietly, like a lonely goose. Seeing that no one was paying attention to us, I smiled and said to the fat man, "Doesn't it seem that you are stupid?" ”

The fat man didn't reply, but walked = close to me, and asked me with a stern face: "Lao Zheng, it doesn't matter if we act as a little brother to others, but how to count the Ming utensils that we touch, have you negotiated with them?" Is it three or seven points, or four or six points? ”

I heard the fat man mention this stubble, and said in my heart: What should come will always come, perfunctory is not a thing, it seems that I can only tell him the truth, so I said to the fat man in a very calm tone unhurriedly: "We are here to find a medical book for Yue'er to treat the disease this time, and it doesn't matter if you feel the instrument or not." ”

The fat man heard this. stared at a pair of bull's eyes and retorted loudly: "Grandma's, who said it doesn't matter." I"

I hurriedly covered the fat man's noisy mouth, and then looked around, worried about being heard. I found that everyone had already entered the tent to rest, and now it was empty outside, so I whispered to the fat man, "What are you shouting?" ”

The fat man tore my hand away, looked me in the eye and said, "Lao Zheng, don't touch the weapon in the next fight." You're sick in the head, right? ”

I lowered my voice and said to him, "Your brain is sick, and I didn't say I wouldn't let you take it, just don't be too public." Why are you shouting so loudly? ”

After listening to what I said, the fat man immediately became happy, patted me on the shoulder and said, "Lao Zheng, I'll just say that you are not such an unethical person!" ”

I continued to work on the final stages of setting up the tent. Then he told the fat man: "You can touch the weapon." But you'll have to make a three-chapter covenant with me. ”

The fat man immediately smiled and said, "Ten chapters are not a problem. ”

I said to the fat man earnestly: "This time we are helping others, so don't be too arrogant and domineering, so as not to offend people, and save them from fighting to give us two small shoes to wear." ”

When the fat man heard my words, his face immediately darkened, and he said angrily: "Who dare I see? ”

I fixed the last rope on the tent, and then I took the fat man into the tent and said to him, "I don't think this group of people is simple, and they are very numerous. We'd better be cautious and low-key, as long as you're willing to listen to me. Don't talk nonsense and cause trouble, I promise you will never go back empty-handed, what do you think? ”

The fat man's purpose is very simple and clear, that is, to enter the bucket to find a book and find a device, and it is not easy for anyone to stop him. I think that since the Liu brothers have gathered so many people, the following must be a big fat bucket, and it shouldn't be a problem to let the fat man touch one or two things casually when the time comes.

When the fat man heard my assurance, he immediately nodded in agreement: "I promise not to cause trouble." ”

I never believed the fat man's assurance, but with me staring at him, it shouldn't cause any big trouble, and the rest will be up to God's will. I lay down on the ground and told the fat man, "I will definitely get up early tomorrow and set off, and when I enter the mountain, I can't rest normally, so you have nothing to do and go to bed early." ”

I didn't say anything all night, and as soon as it was dawn, I was woken up, and when I woke up, I found that the smoke man didn't go back to the tent last night, I don't know where he rested, or didn't sleep all night? I heard a very noisy noise outside, so I shook the fat man, who was sleeping like a dead pig, and said, "Fatty, wake up and have breakfast." ”

As soon as he heard that the meal had begun, the fat man immediately sat up from the ground, wiped the saliva from his mouth, and said, "It's time to eat breakfast so soon." ”

I unzipped the tent and immediately heard a clanging sound outside, so I got out of the tent. The camp was foggy, and there were many figures staggering and shaking, and I suddenly tightened my clothes, and the cold wind of the April morning on the mountain was bitterly cold.

Breakfast was made quickly, this was the last decent meal before we entered the mountain, the fat man and I both ripped open our bellies and ate violently, we both knew that after entering the fight, we wanted to eat a decent meal, which was comparable to the difficulty of climbing to the sky.

The grumbling emaciated young man played out the same play, and I learned that his nickname was "The Resentful Woman". The rest of the camp did not know his real name, and they all said that he was schizophrenic, and often took the form of another woman who resented him, and ignored others when they talked to him, and immersed himself in his own sad and complaining world, and as long as he was quiet, everyone tacitly ignored him.

However, everyone said that he was very capable, had unique skills, and was somewhat famous in the Yunnan and Shu areas.

Looking at the good-looking "resentful woman", I was very surprised in my heart, there are really many wonders in the world, and I really can't understand the alternative thinking world of this special group of people.

The camping group packed up and set off for the mountain. The cigarette man hasn't been in my sight since last night, and I'm used to his style of seeing the dragon without seeing the head, so I don't care.

On the way up the mountain, I found that Jiang Ye likes to squeeze people with words very much, and I deliberately pulled the fat man to walk at the back of the team, just to avoid a head-on conflict with this group of people before the fight. Behind us, there was a man who had been left far behind the line, and that man walked staggeringly. As if she had lost her soul, she staggered and landed at a distance from the team, and that person was the "resentful woman".

The fat man glanced back at the resentful woman behind him who was like a ghost. He smiled and said to me, "This guy is really interesting." ”

I also glanced back at the resentful woman, and said very plainly: "Such a person is the most elusive, and I can't guess his strength and ideas at all." ”

Before you knew it, the team had been walking deep in the mountains for about three or four hours, the sun was already in the middle of the day, and the trees on the mountain were beginning to become dense, and the people in front had to rely on machetes to open the way. to move forward.

I kept wiping the sweat from my forehead, panting like a cow, and the fat man was also very bored and asked me, "When will you rest?" I'm hungry. ”

My stomach was also full of hunger, but I was afraid that the fat man would lose his temper, so I had to reassure him and say, "They carry so much heavy equipment and have a child with them." It won't be long before I will definitely rest. Don't be in a hurry. ”

The fat man didn't know why, he seemed extremely irritable, probably because he was not in a good mood, which was also something that could not be helped. We are not the initiators of this operation, we do not have the right to take the lead, and of course we have to listen to what others say.

However, my estimate was good, and it didn't take long to go. The team stopped to rest, and everyone was in the sweltering woods. After simply eating, filling your stomach, you can continue on your journey.

This time the mountain was exceptionally smooth, and as soon as it was dark, the person leading the way in front found the "sealed mound" on the ground. I estimate that the Liu brothers should have already found a good seat for the bucket that was going to fall this time, so they would be so smooth along the way, not like when I and the fat man went into the mountain before, half of them relied on luck to "find the acupoint", so they recklessly experienced a lot of dangers. Sure enough, compared to this group of people, the fat man and I are still a little young.

After years of wind and rain, the mound on the ground has lost its original appearance, looking like a large rectangular mound, less than two meters high, made of yellow-brown sand mixed with a large number of yellow clay and quartz stones.

The group of people led by the Liu brothers obviously cooperated closely and did not talk, so they began to act in an orderly manner, some set up tents, some eradicated nearby weeds, dug fire ditches and set up pots, and some people were measuring and estimating the specific location of the robbery hole to be dug.

The fat man looked at the busy crowd and said to me, "Lao Zheng, this operation is really fast and smooth. ”

I nodded and said, "It's rare to encounter such an eye-catching mound of sealed soil, it seems that they have already stepped on a good point, so they are in such a hurry to come here, probably for fear that more people will come to step in and get a piece of the pie." ”

All the people are busy in an orderly manner, just me and the fat man have nothing to do, and no one cares about us, and we don't know how to help? I was really bored, so I had to go to the mound to see the excitement, and the fat man ran to the place where the pot was buried to make food, he was only interested in eating.

Seven or eight people in front of the mound of sealing, are doing their duties in an orderly manner, I turned around near the mound of sealing, and saw that the thief hole hit the west side of the mound of sealing, digging straight down, in the dark thief hole, it is so deep that people are already needed to tie ropes, in order to continue the excavation work, I can't help but sigh in my heart, this group of people is really quick with hands and feet, the speed of progress is really fast enough, it is estimated that after a meal, you can fight.

As a result, the weather was not beautiful, and a light rain began to fall at dinner time, and then the rain became more and more intense, and the excavation of the cave had to be suspended, and everyone hid in tents in twos and threes to avoid the rain. I was sitting on the ground with the fat man, discussing whether we could enter the bucket tomorrow, when the cigarette man unzipped the tent and walked in. He sat on the ground and said to me and the fat man, "Tomorrow after the hole is dug, you two will follow me closely." ”

I nodded, and the fat man didn't argue, but nodded in agreement and said "OK". I glanced outside the tent, the rain was still fierce, and some places above the tent roof had begun to leak, so I couldn't help but ask the smoke man with some worry: "This kind of weather situation, can you still fight tomorrow?" ”

The cigarette man held a cigarette in his mouth, looked at the heavy rain outside, and said in a firm tone, "Yes." ”

I thought to myself: Since the cigarette man promised that there is no problem, then tonight we will take care of our spirits, have a good night's rest, and tomorrow we will fight with twelve points of spirit.

As a result, before dawn, something happened. (To be continued......)
