Volume 1 The Fledgling Three Brothers Chapter 24 The Teenagers in the Middle of the Night
Ji Kai was like a frosted eggplant, dejectedly recoiling his sour legs, straightening his waist, closing his eyes slightly, and continuing to visualize.
Ji Longjun's mind gradually calmed down, he thought to himself, it was one thing that the environment in the pit was more suitable for cultivation, and he didn't say anything about it. That is, since he separated from Lala, he felt that the lonely life of the three brothers was not a good choice.
They need friends, they need partners, they need to communicate, they need to feel at home.
Although none of the brothers wanted to go back to the mining city, but when he returned here, in this dark and gravel-covered abandoned pit, he felt the faint sound of mining overhead, and he knew that those familiar miner uncles were not far above him, and the grass and trees of the mining city were also not far away, and the bond between them and the mining city was not broken.
They are still from the mining city, and they still have this small city in their hearts, but they are just unwilling to face this reality.
The mining city gave Ji Longjun warmth and gave him a spiritual harbor.
In this pit, Ji Longjun felt that he could calm down more than on the cliff in the depths of the lonely mountain, and he could think about many things better, because this was in the harbor.
Lu Lala once said that they should overcome their old habit of not only seeing the world with their eyes, but also touching everything around them with their ears, feelings, and hearts. Another benefit of being in this pit is that you can train your perception anytime and anywhere.
Since returning to the mine, the brothers never lit torches in and out of the mine at night, relying on their memories of the tunnels and their perception of weak air currents, they gradually became accustomed to walking in the dark.
Although the head was hit horribly at first, over time their senses became extremely sensitive, and the muscles of their bodies reacted more quickly. Many times in the pitch black, the head is about to hit the stone wall, but there is no need to deliberately twist the neck, the body has already reacted automatically to avoid danger.
That night, Ji Longjun was lying in the depths of the mine and chatting, discussing his recent cultivation experience, and talking about his future plans.
While chatting, Ji Bu suddenly heard a strange sound: "Brother, someone is coming." β
Among the three brothers, Ji Kai is the largest and the most powerful, Ji is the fastest and the most sensitive, and Ji Longjun and Ji Kai haven't noticed that Shi Ji has already pricked up his ears.
"What?"
Ji Longjun's idle mouth was quickly closed, and he pricked up his ears and listened carefully. They have long been accustomed to a life without light, and today they are still in the dark in the mines.
After holding his breath and listening for a while, Ji Longjun found that someone had indeed entered the mine, and there were really many people who listened to this messy footsteps. After the group entered the extremely deep mine tunnel, they walked not far from the pit where Ji Longjun was located, but did not come towards Ji Longjun, but turned around and went to another forked road.
The people who came obviously didn't have the good ears of Ji Longjun and the three, and they were holding torches in front and back, illuminating the mine road as bright as day.
Ji Kai lowered his voice and asked quietly, "Brother, do you want to go over and take a look?"
Ji Longjun said in a low voice: "I said that if you don't go, can you bear it? If you can bear it, I can't bear it, let's go and see." β
Ji Kai likes to join in the fun the most, and he dragged Ji Bu and said, "My brother, do you want to go?"
Ji didn't "snort" either, which was considered a response.
"There are a lot of people on the other side, let's be careful and see what they have to do, don't be impulsive, don't make trouble!" Ji Longjun couldn't help but babble again.
"I know, I know, what's going on, let's go, brother, you lead the way!" Ji Kai urged.
"Let's go!"
The three of Ji Longjun are accompanied by wild beasts almost every day, and they are especially good at lurking. If you want to say that when a spy eavesdrops on something, it is really difficult for ordinary people to find out.
The three brothers listened with bated breath for a while, making sure that no one had come in again, so they quietly searched for it on their tiptoes.
After turning around along the mine road, the Ji Longjun brothers chased after the place where the group of people was.
I don't know if I don't see it, but I'm really shocked when I see it.
This mine road goes into the depths, and it turns out to be an abandoned ore sorting station, which is a very large stone chamber. In the stone chamber, there were not only various machines and equipment, but also helmets, coal lamps, and clothes that were discarded on the ground, which were covered with a thick layer of soil ash.
Now the stone chamber was lit by dozens of torches as bright as day, and the two groups of people stood on either side, and the huge sorting station still seemed very empty. These people don't look very old, they look at me, I look at you, and no one speaks.
"Huh, Chen Tian?" said Ji Longjun curiously.
Among so many people, Ji Longjun is familiar with a lot, and they are basically young people who can make a lot of noise in the generation of Mining City. But the person headed by one party, with a chubby face, not tall or short figure, and his eyes rolling straight in his sockets, was Ji Longjun's "old acquaintance" Chen Tian.
"Brother, do you know them?" Ji Kai leaned beside Ji Longjun and asked quietly.
"Hmm. Don't talk just yet. Ji Longjun continued to observe.
I saw that the two sides present stared at each other, stared for a while, and a handsome young man with his back to Ji Longjun took a step forward, tilted his head and said:
"Hey, what do you mean, what are the intentions of asking us to come out to this kind of ghost place in the middle of the night?" Ji Longjun's eyes lit up, and he said in his heart: "Isn't this a 'little cousin'? β
"Hehe, I asked you to come, naturally there is something to discuss. It's just that I didn't expect so many of you to come, are you still afraid that we will do something unseemly? Or ...... You are too timid to come here because there are too few people?" a young man on Chen Tian's side replied with an unkind face.
"What? Aren't you more than us when we bring more people? Who is afraid?"
"Little cousin" stretched out his hand and shouted-for-tat.
"Who doesn't know that there have been many accidents in the mine for decades, so many absenteeism in the abandoned mine pits, and most of the night, if you don't have a brain disease, who will come here to do what?"
Indeed, the number of Chen Tian's gang was far more than that of the "little cousin" group, and both sides were wary of each other, and the atmosphere was a little gunpowder for a while.
"Brother, this kid's brain is spinning so fast, they're going to do it!" Ji Kai touched Ji Longjun's arm and whispered with a wicked smile.
Ji Longjun nodded and said softly: "It doesn't matter to us whether they fight or not, let's just watch the excitement." β
Ji Kai smiled "hehe", covered his mouth and said: "I like to watch the excitement the most, they should fight quickly!"
"What did you just say, brother? Don't dare to come here? Hey, hey, hey, hey! Everyone grew up in a mining town, and if you don't get it right, you will all have to come to the mine to work, so why don't you dare to come here? Look at you people, what's the matter, you think that if you ask the land here, how capable you are? How bold you are? It's just naΓ―ve! Ridiculous! Haha, haha!"
The "little cousin" is very clever, with a pair of mouths like a storyteller, and one person angrily scolds Chen Tian and his gang. He spoke, laughed and scolded, like a cannon, and the little friends behind Chen Tian were speechless and speechless.
A few younger brothers on both sides come and go, and there is a momentum of getting more and more noisy.
Chen Tian finally couldn't hold it back, coughed lightly, and awkwardly interrupted everyone: "Okay, okay, stop for a while." Let the brothers rest, stop arguing...... I don't know if you received my letter?"
Chen Tian's words are in vain, if people don't receive it, how can they go to the meeting on time tonight as scheduled. The "little cousin" just wanted to use his language to scold him, but seeing that the "four bosses" seemed to be intent on calming down the quarrel, they didn't squeak, but the small eyes of a pair of chicken thieves were purring.
"Roger. Chen Tian, you said that you had a very ambitious plan and wanted to talk to me face to face, and I came. I didn't mean anything else to bring these brothers, I wanted everyone to participate, they are all people I trust, don't worry if you have any advice. β
The people known as the "four bosses" are very steady and sophisticated, and they are neither humble nor arrogant.
Chen Tian's face was slightly embarrassed, obviously he had prepared in advance, but when he negotiated with Jia Laosi head-on today, he still felt a little upset in his heart.
Ji Longjun looked at Jia Laosi carefully in the dark, and said in his heart: "It turns out that this person is Jia Laosi, he really has an extraordinary bearing, and he has such an aura at a young age, no wonder others politely call him 'Fourth Boss'." β
This Jia Laosi, whose real name is Jia Fenwei, is in his early twenties, tall, mighty, with a big square face and eyes like torches, and he is not an idle person at first glance.
Jia Laosi is the fourth son of Jiafu, a big household in the east of the city, last year to catch up with the Shitian party rebellion, his father and brother were involved in the death of his father, and now there is a huge Jiafu, and dozens of people up and down are in charge of him.
"Okay, Mingren doesn't do dark things, everyone grew up in the city with a bare ass, since it's my own people, I'll say it directly. β
Chen Tian organized the language and explained the reason for this appointment in detail.
It turned out that Shi Tian and his henchmen were all exterminated within a day, and the people of the mining city had no time to react, and his charges of rebellion were completely confirmed. Qiu Caibee sang black face, Wang Lun sang white face, relying on a large number of Qicheng warriors to suppress the bullets, and a dozen and one stroke actually snuffed out the imminent city-wide riot in the mining city.
On this night, nearly half of the most bloody men in the mining city were killed, and the rest had to choose silence in order to survive. But paper can't contain the fire after all, and the so-called rebellion of the Shitian party is of course a trumped-up charge, and the truth has long been quietly spread in the mining city.
Wang Lun hooked up with Qicheng a long time ago, Shi Tian disobeyed Qicheng Yang, this matter Qicheng's Qiu City Lord was clear in his heart, and when the war with Luming Village came to an end, Qicheng freed his hands to find an excuse to slaughter Shi Tian and his henchmen, and then supported Wang Lun to sit on the position of the city lord and became the puppet of Qicheng.
Since Wang Lun came to power, he has really measured the material resources of the mining city and the favor of the old men of the city.
Most of the high-grade gold mines produced are sent to Qicheng, and the inferior gold ore, iron ore and copper ore are left for their own people, smelted into utensils for the livelihood of the whole city, and the very precious black iron ore is not left at all, all of which are sent to Qicheng.
The death of the Lord of Shitian City and dozens of his subordinates dealt a great blow to the mining city. Most of the talented and clever young people in the city have become ghosts, which is also the reason why Wang Lun is the lord of the city, because no one can take the lead, and no one dares to resist.
However, after all, so many lives have been killed, and what is left behind these people is the blood and hatred of the sea of blood and friends behind these people.
