Volume 7: Iron Horse Chapter 289: Reunion Before Crisis
Ten days without incident, peace in South China.
Ten days later, early in the morning, the construction site in Jiancheng was filled with people. All major transportation vehicles, handling machinery, and many workers were all gathered together. Today there were twice as many people as usual.
More than enough.
Pouring the fourth layer of cement slabs is a big deal. It requires more skill than building a wall. It is also a job that requires everyone to work together and complete it in the shortest possible time. Just yesterday, Murong Qing sent the workers here for fifteen days.
The wages were settled once. The wages were originally paid monthly, but in order to stimulate the enthusiasm of the workers, Murong Qing paid them once every half month. The workers received their wages, and today they are more enthusiastic than any other day since the start of work.
All must be prosperous.
"Xiaoqiang, the fourth floor was built very quickly. It was completed in just six days. We have finished pouring the fourth floor ceiling today, so we can breathe a sigh of relief."
"Xiao Hei, President Murong paid all our wages yesterday. It seems that they really care about us. We want to do better. By the way, how much salary did you pay? Let's go get high after finishing the ceiling today.
."
"Okay, I got a salary of two thousand, half a month, including bonus. I'll treat you to a movie tonight. Remember to bring your wife and kids with you. I haven't seen your little baby for a long time."
"Okay, haha... I'll treat you to dinner after the movie."
…
Nearly 20,000 workers were entrenched in a ten-mile radius and began to water the ceiling of the fourth floor of Sword City. The project was in progress, and even such a cold weather could not cover up the enthusiasm of the workers.
"Murong, why do I feel that the weather today is not very good? From morning to now, my eyes have been beating, as if something is going to happen." Chen Qiang came to Murong Qing's office early and said what was in his heart.
idea.
Chen Zhen, Chen Qiang, Zhuge Qing, Zhuge Qinglong, Bingpo, Xuanwu, Baifeng, and Qingluan have all come to Dragon Dream. Group after group of people gathered together during Ling Jie's retreat.
Came back from all over the world to get together.
Murong Qing also arranged reasonable things for them based on the specific situation. For example, Zhuge Qing and his group had nothing to do and spent a lot of time together to learn martial arts experience. Although everyone had their own plans, because Ling Jie was still there, they all
They get along well with each other.
Murong Qing took a sip of coffee. She had to deal with too many things yesterday, and now her eyes were still full of bloodshot eyes, "Oh? You feel like something is going to happen today? Do you have a specific explanation? You can't just let your eyes keep twitching.
I decided something was going to happen today."
Chen Qiang said, "That's true, but I felt uneasy when I woke up early this morning. It's been four or five days since I came back, and I haven't felt this way."
Chen Qiang's words would have been ignored by Murong Qing in the past, but it was different today, because she woke up early in the morning, her eyelids were beating all the time, and she didn't fall asleep yesterday. She felt very uneasy and wanted to die.
It was like a disaster. What depressed her the most was that she had looked through all the records of the past half month and there were no big troubles. In the end, she just thought that she was overthinking, but now Chen Qiang said this again, she
There is another layer of worry in my heart.
"Okay, I understand, let me think about it again." Just after Murong Qing finished speaking, several more people pushed the door open and came in.
These people are Qin Feng, Chen Zhen, Xiaobei and Fengchu.
Xiaobei was the first to speak, "Sister Murong, I feel so boring today, I can't breathe."
Chen Zhen said, "Murong, are there any big things to do today?"
Qin Feng said, "I feel that something is wrong with the atmosphere today. I seem to smell something dangerous in the air, but I can't tell what it is. I just feel that something big is going to happen today."
Feng Chu said, "My mood is unusually fluctuating today. Nothing like this has happened in the past few years. The Grand Master's heart was originally as solid as steel and would not fluctuate at all... But today it has been in turmoil. I also feel
, something big will happen today.”
Next, Zhuge Qing, Zhuge Qinglong, and Bingpo all came in and said similar things. Originally, Murong Qing felt that something was wrong today, but now that so many people had the same feeling, Murong Qing also expressed his true thoughts, "
I also had a bad premonition, and it was extremely strong, as if a disaster was coming."
Everyone looked at each other, and finally Qin Feng spoke, "It seems like everyone has the feeling that something big is going to happen. It seems that this thing didn't happen to someone else, but happened to everyone. I don't feel like it."
Come out, what exactly will happen to all of us? Fengxia, what do you think?"
Feng Chu frowned, but shook her head, "I can't feel it either. This is the unique feeling of danger that I trained as a martial arts master. This feeling of danger coming to me is too familiar, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with it."
Just when everyone was at a loss, a familiar voice broke the silence.
"What a coincidence, everyone is here, I was just going to find you." Ling Jie walked into the office calmly. When his eyes looked at Chen Qiang and Chen Zhen, there was a hint of surprise in his eyes that anyone could see.
, finally looked at Zhuge Qinglong, Zhuge Qing and Bingpo, "You are all back."
There were also Bai Feng, Qing Luan, and Xuan Wu. Ling Jie came in front of everyone, clasped his fists, and thanked Bai Feng, Xuan Wu, Qing Luan, Zhuge Qing, Zhuge Qinglong, Bing Po, Chen Qiang, and Chen Zhen one by one.
, "Ling Jie is here, welcome you back, and I am even more grateful that you have chosen to be with me. From now on, we are all brothers, and what I, Ling Jie, have is everyone's, as close as brothers, as close as brothers and sisters."
Ling Jie spoke loudly, and finally burst into laughter, "I said I was in an unusual mood today. I thought something big was going to happen, but unexpectedly everyone was reunited. This is a good thing."
Murong Qing stood up directly and asked Ling Jie to take a seat. Ling Jie declined and said, "You're welcome, we are all our own people. I heard what you just said."
Chen Zhen seemed to know something. He took out a cigarette and lit it for Ling Jie. Ling Jie took a puff of the cigarette and said, "I was in retreat to comprehend the great realm of Nirvana. Today, I felt extremely irritable. I felt something big was going to happen, so I came out.
Take a look. Murong, what do you think?"
Ling Jie exhaled bursts of green smoke, which formed circles and floated upwards.
Murong Qing said, "I have checked all the work records since the construction of Jiancheng started, and there are no mistakes. I really can't figure out where this premonition comes from, whether it is groundless, or whether it is really dangerous."
Ling Jie raised his head and stared at the ceiling, feeling sad and filled with emotion as he said, "Let me tell you, if something really happens today, it will definitely happen in Sword City."
Murong Qing was stunned for a moment, then denied, "Impossible, I am very strict about the process of Jiancheng, and the construction team we hired are all the world's top engineers and architects. The construction of Jiancheng can be said to be highly anticipated, and every day
I personally control everything, even the materials I purchase are strictly controlled, how could something happen?"
Everyone else also looked at Ling Jie, obviously they had the same idea as Murong Qing.
Ling Jie said earnestly, "This is a message from a strong person in the divine realm to me. My current state of mind has reached the edge of the Great Master's Perfection, and I may break through and enter the Nirvana Realm at any time. This is how I feel. Something is going to happen in Sword City."
."
The message Ling Jie spoke of from a powerful person in the divine realm was naturally about Qingmang.
Feng Chu said, "I can see that the temperament of Ninth Brother now is very different from before. In just six days, Ninth Brother has become a completely new person. Since Ninth Brother said that he is far from Nirvana,
We are only one step away from Pan Da Realm, so we naturally believe your feelings. But you have to tell everyone, where can something happen in Sword City?"
Ling Jie said, "I looked down at the buildings in Jiancheng just now. In fact, the walls of Jiancheng are not vertical. Since the fourth floor, the walls have begun to tilt, and the tilt is just in place. Once the top of the fourth floor is pressed a certain
Not only the walls on the fourth floor will collapse due to the heavy weight, but also the walls on the three underground floors will be affected and all collapse."
Ling Jie's words were so shocking that everyone present couldn't believe it after hearing what Ling Jie said.
Chen Qiang even retorted directly, "It's impossible. Murong Qing and I just used a cone to measure the walls. The walls are all vertical without any deviation. How could it be tilted?"
Ling Jie said, "This is the brilliance of the enemy's tactics. Indeed, if you look at it with the naked eye, the wall is indeed vertical, but if you look carefully, you will find that the bricks on the fourth floor are of different sizes and thicknesses.
Even the mud configuration is not up to standard. The wall on the fourth floor is like the top of the wall and will fall down when the wind blows. Because the thickness of the bricks is different, although it looks vertical on the surface, the internal space is seriously asymmetrical.
The wall is crooked."
Ling Jie's words were so shocking that Chen Qiang and Murong Qing were speechless.
Finally, Ling Jie said, "This is because the engineering design drawings of the fourth floor have been tampered with. Once the cement slabs are poured on it, all four floors of Sword City will collapse, and the land ten miles away will be reduced to ruins in an instant. This is why you are so worried.
A reason for restlessness.”
Ling Jie's words were shocking. Everyone present was shocked after hearing Ling Jie's words. Murong Qing's voice was even more uncertain, "What should we do? It's already noon now, and the watering work is over.
We’re already halfway there, and I probably won’t be able to stop even if I want to, ten miles away…”
Ling Jie took a deep breath, picked up the cigarette and took one last puff. Then he put the cigarette butt in the ashtray and exhaled a long breath, "Now... let's go out and meet the workers first. I also feel that things have gone beyond imagination...
…”
