Cai Zhen took a few deep breaths, and then regained his confidence, and he asked, "What is the purpose of these copycat alliances, and why did you come to Cai Yi for?"

The fat man was a little slurred, as if he didn't dare to speak.

"Say!" Cai Zhen said viciously.

"The purpose of the Alliance is ... It's to deal with the Cai family. Because Yan Rong said that the Cai family wantonly eliminated the surrounding forces and broke the rules, everyone should unite to teach the Cai family a lesson!" the fat man said cautiously.

"Bold! Even the copycat thieves dare to say that they want to teach my Cai family a lesson, it's really beyond their means!" Cai Zhen was furious, and a loud roar interrupted the fat man's words.

"Yes! Yes, what the son said was that the villain also thought so at the time, and carefully reminded Yan Rong, but he didn't expect to be scolded by Yan Rong on the spot, and he also arranged for this order to explore Caiyi City to the villain. Now it seems that it must have been the villain's words that offended Yan Rong, so he sent a few villains to send him to death. This Yan Rong is vicious, if we have the life to go back, we will never give up with the old thief of Yan Rong!" the fat man said angrily.

"Childe, the villain knows everything. You have always been true to your word, and just now in front of so many people, you promised to let the villain live a few lives, you can't break your promise and let your subordinates see jokes, right?" The fat man asked eagerly, as if he was afraid that Cai Zhen would regret it.

Cai Zhen was already shocked by the sudden news of the Shanzhai Huimeng at this time, he was not in the mood to entangle with these thieves now, he had to tell his father this important news as soon as possible.

So he glanced at the fat man with a pitiful face, and then said to Cai Qi: "Cai Qi, can these people be released?"

"Childe, there is no doubt that these people are spies of Heishi Village, how can they be easily let go?" Cai Qi was frightened by Cai Zhen's outrageous question again, and he hurriedly stopped it. If these people were really released, then Elder Cai and Yan, who had worked so hard, would not have picked his skin!

"Well, I also think that I can't let them go! But since I have promised to spare their lives, I can't break my promise! Cai Qi, what do you think these people should do?"

Cai Qi glanced at the fat man, then thought for a while, and then said: "Childe, it's better to be like this, there is a shortage of coolies in the Cold Spring Mine recently, and Elder Hezhong has sent letters urging him many times. For this reason, the head of the family also had a headache, after all, the surrounding forces had almost been emptied, and they had caused a lot of trouble. Since you have promised to spare their lives, why don't you send them to Elder Hezhong, or use them to waste, wouldn't you have the best of both worlds?"

"Good idea! Cai Qi, you really deserve to be my left arm and right arm. Then do as you wish!" Cai Zhen was overjoyed, so he nodded in agreement with his suggestion.

When the fat man heard that he was going to be arrested for mining, he immediately wailed: "Childe, you can't do this!"

Cai Zhen was in no mood to pay attention to the fat man's wailing now, he was bent on telling his father this important news as soon as possible, so that he could atone for his sins and get rid of this painful day of grounding.

When Cai Zhen came outside his father Cai Yong's study, Cai Yong was closing his eyes in the study to recuperate. Seeing this, Cai Zhen wanted to wake him up several times but didn't dare, so he could only anxiously pacing back and forth outside the door. It wasn't until nearly ten minutes later, when Cai Zhen was about to get impatient, that Cai Yong's inquiry voice came from the room: "You rebel, you have been pacing back and forth outside for so long, what is the matter?

"Father, Zhen'er has been confined to another courtyard, where are you going to get into trouble? Zhen'er has an important matter and is in a hurry to report to your father!" Cai Zhen explained to Cai Yong anxiously.

Cai Zhen is usually a demon-like character in this Caiyi City, he is almost not afraid of heaven and earth, and he is even more unscrupulous in doing things, but when facing Cai Yong, he is as afraid as if a mouse has met a cat.

"Oh, what else do you have to report to me?" Cai Yong knows his unreliable son very well, but he has a hand in causing trouble, and he doesn't have to count on doing the right thing, so he was a little surprised by his statement.

"Father, Zhen'er just got a big news, those bandits in Heishi Village are holding some kind of alliance meeting, and they plan to be unfavorable to our Cai family!" Cai Zhen eagerly told Cai Yong about his amazing discovery.

However, Cai Yong's reaction puzzled him, because Cai Yong didn't have much reaction after hearing it, but just asked him lightly: "Oh? Where did you learn about this?"

"Uh! Cai Qi caught a few spies on the docks, I learned about them from them. Why wasn't my father surprised by this?" Cai Zhen asked in surprise.

"What do you think I should be surprised at?"

"Uh, father, do you already know about it?"

"Hmph, if you still need to tell me about such a big thing, then my position as the head of the family will not be able to be kept for a long time. Cai Yong sneered, and then said: "When I decided to clear the surrounding forces, I had long expected that Heishi Village would make some moves, so I arranged for people to keep an eye on them. Yan Rong of Heishi Village is still a person, but if he wants to fight with our Cai family, it is not qualified enough! Since they want to be unfavorable to our Cai family this time, then I just take advantage of this opportunity to eradicate his Heishi Village in one fell swoop. At that time, I want to see the thousands of miles around this Cai Yi City, who else dares not to surrender to our Cai family?"

"Since my father already knows the news, he must have been prepared for a long time?" It's just that Zhen'er is a little worried, and several big villages such as the thief village, the rock village, and the hussar village are also involved, and their strength should not be underestimated!" Cai Zhen still reminded a little uneasy.

"Although these Dazhai also have some strength, but for the sake of other people's interests, how many people will do this stupid thing of trying their own strength? Even if they really don't open their eyes and are willing to show a layer of strength, I have already prepared a big gift for them, and I will definitely surprise them when the time comes. Hmph!" Cai Yong didn't care about this matter, he looked scheming, and seemed to have a plan for the next possible war.

Cai Zhen saw that his father Cai Yong had been prepared for this, and knew that his news did not have much effect, so his mood couldn't help but be low, and he said dejectedly: "In this case, if my father has nothing else, Zhen'er will leave first?"

Cai Yong glanced at Cai Zhen, who was depressed, shook his head and said slowly: "Although your news this time is not new, at least it shows that you still have the heart to do things." In that case, then your grounding will be lifted for the time being, and you can study hard by my side!"

Cai Zhen had already lost much hope, but now he suddenly heard such good news, and he was immediately overjoyed and nodded quickly: "Yes! Father! Zhen'er must work hard not to disappoint you, father!"

"Hmm!" Cai Yong was noncommittal about Cai Zhen's assurance, and just asked casually: "How did you deal with those spies?"

"Oh, Father, Zhen'er heard that Elder Hezhong was short of coolies, so he sent them to Elder Hezhong!" Cai Zhen hurriedly reported his plan to Cai Yong.

Cai Yong thought for a moment and said lightly: "It's okay!"

So the final result of Qin Tian and the four of them was decided.

After Cai Zhen left, Cai Qi escorted Qin Tian and the four of them to the transport ship at the dock, which was divided into three levels, the upper floor was the residence of the crew and passengers, and the middle and lower floors were used to transport goods or prisoners like Qin Tian and them.

Qin Tian found that in the ship's cabin, there were still more than two dozen prisoners being held. The prisoners were kept in barned barns, making the ship look like a mobile prison.

It seemed that this was a ship that had been specially modified to transport prisoners, Qin Tian thought to himself.

This sudden and unwarranted disaster has always made Qin Tian's heart very angry, the four of them can come and go safely in the bandits' den, but they are in the hands of the local government, and the reason is because of the mentality.

For bandits, several of them have maintained a high enough vigilance, but they lack enough vigilance for the government, and they never expected that the government here is more bandits than bandits. It seems that in this strange continent, even the government is not credible, if you want to survive here, then you must be vigilant enough no matter what you want in the future, only those things that you can really grasp can be trusted, and everything else should not be trusted.

Qin Tian and the four of them were pushed into an independent warehouse by the soldiers, this warehouse was specially prepared by Cai Qi for the four of them, it was the most heavily defended one of the ships, and even the iron fence was much thicker than the others. Due to Qin Tian's strong martial arts, Cai Qi also specially used the best cold iron produced in the mine to create a set of special shackles and handcuffs for each of the four of them to prevent them from escaping halfway.

In the face of this special treatment, Qin Tian and the four of them had no good way, so they could only stay in their own warehouse honestly.

The voyage on the road was quite smooth, maybe Cai Qi didn't want to have any problems along the way, so he didn't abuse the people in the cell along the way, and the food was at least barely enough.

After nearly five days of sailing down the river, Qin Tian and the others finally came to the special wharf of the Hanquan Mining Area, although there are still more than ten miles away from the real mining area, it also belongs to the management of the mining area.

On the wharf, Qin Tian and more than two dozen other prisoners were all sent to a special prisoner car, and slowly and leisurely marched towards the mining area, and at this time Qin Tian and the four had the opportunity to take a serious look at the environment around the mining area.

They were driving on a road that connected the mine to the wharf, and from the level of the road, it was a sturdy and spacious road specially built for the transportation of ore and various supplies. From the trucks full of ore coming from time to time on the road, you can also know that the scale of the mine is very large, and the output is not small.

After passing through two dangerous and well-defended passes, the prisoner truck actually entered the mining area.

Qin Tian noticed that the two passes he had passed through before were actually very strong, the city wall was made of large ashlar stones, and it seemed to have been cast with iron juice to look extremely strong, and it was more than five zhang high and nearly three zhang wide, and there were many large armor such as arrow towers and bed crossbows erected on it, and its defensive ability was almost comparable to a strong fortress, which made Qin Tian feel very surprised.
