The mine where the accident happened is located halfway up the mountain in the north. As I walked, I listened to them briefing me on the situation.
Yang Dazhuang was a talkative person, while Liu Peng didn't like to talk much. So most of these things were said by Yang Dazhuang, and Liu Peng added a few words from time to time.
Yang Dazhuang said that he and Liu Peng were in the mine at the time of the accident. Fortunately, the well was a flat hole and it didn't go very far, so they could still run out if something happened.
If it had been a inclined tunnel or a shaft, those ghosts would have pounced on them and torn them apart before they could escape, and there would have been no chance of them getting out alive.
This is also the reason why they dared to fight despite the heavy reward. If I changed the inclined tunnel or the shaft, they would not accompany me on this trip. After all, no one wants to make that kind of money. Life is earned but life is wasted.
money.
We soon arrived halfway up the mountain. Yang Dazhuang pointed to the dark hole not far away and told me that it was the mine.
I looked at the entrance of the cave, which was a bit messy. It was not as smooth as the other mine entrances. It should have been created by the previous explosion of the earth cannon!
A sudden heat came over my face, and I knew it was Huang Yongyong who had come out.
Sure enough, a figure flashed past, and Huang Yongyong stood beside me. He still looked a little weak, and looked at the mine warily, telling me to be careful and not to be careless. He vaguely felt that there was something wrong there.
Simple.
Hearing what Huang Yongyong said, I felt even more uneasy. It seemed that there was something fishy going on here.
I asked him where Brother Meng had been and how he was recovering. He said that Brother Meng was fine and that he could just rest for a few more days.
Yang Dazhuang and Liu Peng couldn't see the fairy in me, they could only see me talking to myself in the air. Their expressions looked unnatural, they were no longer as casual as before, and their eyes at me had more inexplicable meaning.
.But they didn’t ask me anything, so they should know more or less about my identity.
I waved my hands to them, indicating that they were standing behind me. Then I bravely entered the mine first. They looked at each other, not knowing what to think, and followed me in.
No matter how dazzling the sun is, there are dark corners that cannot reach it, such as here. Everywhere we see is pitch black, as if there are countless monsters and monsters waiting to devour us.
I took out the flashlight from my backpack and scanned the mine in front of me. Yang Dazhuang and the others also turned on the miner's lamps on their heads.
As expected, the mine is advancing in a flat direction, and there is no slope at all. It is relatively gentle. Seeing that the flashlight cannot illuminate the end, I can't help but feel a little frightened and a little more afraid of the unknown. But it's okay for now.
I noticed something unusual around here.
I asked them where they found those evil things before.
Yang Dazhuang said it was nearby. He saw it not far after he came in. He also said that this mine was also an old abandoned mine. He didn’t know when it was opened. It was probably a few years old. They also ordered it well last time.
, I accidentally hit and crashed and came out with some good stuff. The fifteen bombs that exploded this time are still a little inside, but they are not far away.
We walked a little further inside and didn't find anything evil. We just found a dozen pieces of rope as thick as a little finger scattered on the ground.
I know this thing is not a rope, but a cannon twister used to fire cannons, also called a fuse. I don't know why these didn't burn, so they just threw them on the ground.
Yang Dazhuang and Liu Peng picked up some of the passages and looked carefully. They didn't know what they saw. Under the illumination of the headlights, their faces turned livid!
"Damn, this bitch Kou San is so bad!"
Liu Peng, this boring gourd, actually gritted his teeth and started swearing. I don’t know why.
"Brother Peng, have you ever remembered when we inspected the cannon yesterday? I think the three Kou brothers were a little abnormal at that time!"
Yang Dazhuang didn't know what he remembered, his brows knitted into knots, and he said to Liu Peng.
"Well, I remembered what you said. It must have been the three of them. They definitely can't escape! These three scoundrels died unjustly. It's simply retribution! Bah!"
Liu Peng's tone of voice was obviously angry. At the end of his speech, he actually spit several times.
"What are you two talking about? Is there anything strange about what happened this time?" I was confused and asked them.
They looked at each other and told me what happened as they walked.
It turned out that yesterday Li Wannian asked them to check whether there were enough things to be used today. This work is usually done by Yang Dazhuang and Liu Peng. After checking, they found that the fifteen cannons to be used today were enough. They were all used before.
The quality assurance of the rest is no problem. It's just that the matching cannon twisters are not enough and a few more ones need to be made.
At that time, Yang Dazhuang pulled out a pile of materials and was about to do it, but he didn't expect Kou Dahai to rush to do it.
He also asked them all to rest, saying that he had just caught a big white raccoon dog in the morning and was stewing it in a pot. He would improve the food for everyone, and also prepared good wine for everyone to drink.
Yang Dazhuang was a little puzzled. It was possible for others to compete for the work. The three Kou brothers had always been the most sneaky and cunning, so how could they compete for the work?
In addition, the three brothers are also famous for being picky. They have always taken advantage of others and never suffered any losses. They have known each other for several years and have never invited anyone to drink and eat meat. In the past, they brought game.
They all stewed and ate it secretly. If anyone happened to meet him, he would never show any humility. I don’t know where the sun came out this time, but he was unprecedentedly generous!
Although Yang Dazhuang was puzzled at the time, he didn't think much about it and just assumed it was Kou Dahai's conscience who discovered it. In summary, it may also be because Li Wannian gave everyone a bonus of 100,000 yuan before, and Kou Dahai became more diligent when he was happy!
Unexpectedly, something happened when the cannon was fired this morning!
The fifteen cannons actually misfired at the same time. Yang Dazhuang felt a little thump in his heart and felt something was wrong.
I have personally inspected the fifteen cannons one by one, and there is no possibility of any problems. Moreover, the cannons of the same batch are all perfectly accurate, and there has never been any problem!
To tell the problem, it can only be that there is something wrong with the cannon. But when I think about it, although Kou Dahai's character is not good, his art of firing cannons is also very good. He can be ranked among all the gunners, so he will not be so low.
IQ question.
Li Wannian had encountered evil things before, but this time he didn't even think about the problem with the cannon itself, and just assumed it was something evil.
None of us had ever encountered such an evil thing, so we just let things take their own course and went with Li Wannian.
It wasn't until Yang Dazhuang and Liu Peng checked the cannon twisters on the ground just now that they discovered that many of the cannon twisters were hollow! There was no gunpowder filled at all!
The two of them understood immediately. It turned out to be that bastard Kou Dahai. Yesterday he volunteered to make a cannon twister, but he took the opportunity to do some tricks on the cannon twister, leaving no gunpowder in the middle section!
When the cannon was burned to this point, it all turned off. It's strange that the cannon can go off!
When I heard this, I understood. It turned out that the fifteen cannons had misfired at the same time. It was not because of something evil, but because of someone with a crooked mind!
The three brothers of the Kou family must have watched Li Wannian explode good ore last time, and refined a lot of gold, making a lot of money.
The three brothers were jealous and wanted to use bad water Yin Li Wannian! They made wine and stewed white raccoon seeds to fool everyone. They went to eat and drink. They tampered with the cannons and waited for the cannons.
Misfiring, they took the opportunity to kill Li Wannian severely! I guess they had already planned it and ran away after finishing the job.
But God's calculations are not as good as those of humans. Unexpectedly, the agency's calculations were too clever, and they ended up costing the lives of the three brothers!
Having said that, I suddenly had a question that I couldn't figure out, so I asked them:
"To say that these fifteen cannons misfired at the same time was because the three brothers of the Kou family had done something wrong, but they exploded at the same time and killed the three of them. What was the reason? Listen to what you mean, these three brothers
My art of firing cannons is quite good, so it’s impossible for me to make a mistake and kill myself, right?"
"This... we can't understand this either, this is quite evil!"
"It's just that we haven't been doing this for more than a year or two. The artillery firing points are all scattered. They are not at one point. I have never encountered such a coincidence. Fifteen artillery pieces exploded at the same time!"
Liu Peng, the boring gourd, was obviously more talkative now, like a slow-burning type. He said that when the three brothers of the Kou family went in to tinker with the squib, he had been staring at the entrance of the cave from a distance. He felt that the three of them only had half a gourd.
Just as he was smoking, he appeared from the entrance of the mine. He must have been in a hurry. After running a few steps, he heard the cannon explode. A lot of broken stones collapsed along with the entrance of the cave, killing the three brothers.
All fell to pieces.
After listening to what Yang Dazhuang and Liu Peng said, I obviously didn't know why those cannons exploded at the same time.
"Little Master, we two brothers are not as greedy as the three Kou brothers. We have already calculated it on the way here. We don't want all of the 30% of the ore promised by Boss Li. You will be counted as a share, and each of us will get 10%.
"
Yang Dazhuang stopped and stopped walking forward, turned to me and said.
"Yes, we both know that the young master is a capable person. Otherwise, Boss Li wouldn't be able to invite you. Although this money is a good thing, we both know ourselves. The reason why we can earn this money is that we have to rely more on it.
Young Master! You must agree to this and accept our brothers’ wishes no matter what!”
Liu Peng also looked at me and said, his expression looked sincere, not like he was pretending.
I looked at the two of them with a lot of thoughts. Gold is a good thing. It is not only valuable, but also shows humanity. The three brothers of the Kou family tried their best, but in the end they didn't even get a hair, and they lost three lives in vain. Yang Dazhuang and Liu Peng
, seeing that the gold was about to be obtained, he wanted to share 10% of it with me.
Comparing the two, human nature emerges.
I smiled at them and told them that I would not ask for the gold, and they could rest assured that as long as I was around, nothing would happen to them.
We continued walking towards the place where the cannons were fired to see if we could find any problems. As we walked, they were still trying to persuade me to accept the gold.
The swaying headlights shone in the dark mine, emitting a pale halo. Not far ahead, a shocking scene suddenly appeared, which made us tremble with coldness all over!
