Mountain and sea lantern

Chapter 8 Can’t run away
Regardless of whether he came to counter the rebellion sincerely, at least he came because of the rebellion. When he saw a group of people rushing towards him in the cave, he immediately pulled out his weapons with a clatter.

The people who rushed out of the cave pulled their weapons on them when they saw those running outside, and those who were there also immediately picked up and dealt with them. The tension on the faces of the miners was clearly visible, and they didn't know what the situation was.

Someone from outside the cave yelled, "Put the guy down!"

Those who came with him all responded with threats.

The ones who came out of the cave shouted, "What do you want to do?"

As the crowd parted, Shen Youkun walked out, pointed at a group of people rushing outside and shouted, "What do you want to do? Are you tired of living?"

Even though his cultivation was gone, Heng Jin still did not change in the face of the gleaming weapons. This shows how much he does not take these natives into consideration. This is also a habit of these natives. For example, the head of Dongjiuyuan does not tolerate him. Problem, he was a little scared.

Seeing him, the group from outside the cave all drooped their swords, and the first one asked in surprise: "Mr. Shen, are you okay?"

"What's wrong with me? Why did you come in here instead of guarding me outside?" Shen Youkun yelled angrily. He still expected these guys to stop the escaping people.

With such a confrontation between the two sides, the situation can be imagined. Shen Youkun was furious and yelled, "A bunch of idiots!"

After confirming that there was no danger, Qi Ziru was also carried forward. His calm voice suppressed the impatient Shen Youkun, "Is it the only one who broke out?"

He wanted to confirm that if it was really one person who dared to take risks alone and trick everyone like this, then he really had to take a high look.

"Yes, just one person."

"All we saw was one person."

"No, there is a miner lying not far from the entrance who seems to have been seriously injured and passed out. It may be a fake."

"Hey, that's right. If the miners' rebellion is fake, the miner who may have been seriously injured and passed out may also be fake."

When everyone responded, a guard who was standing guard at the entrance of the cave also echoed: "The miner is the tallest one. He is very conspicuous. I remember how many times he came in and out."

As soon as these words came out, Shen Youkun suddenly said to himself in a daze, "Tall, two people..."

At the same time, the scene when he almost collided with a tall man at the entrance of the cave appeared in his mind. With a bang, he suddenly slapped himself hard and said more and more angrily: "It's them, uncle, it's..."

Qi Ziru interrupted decisively, "Shut up and seal the entrance of the cave first."

Shen Youkun said anxiously: "Uncle, I know who it is, it's..."

Qi Ziru suddenly said sharply: "I told you to shut up!"

"..." Shen Youkun immediately fell silent. His uncle was really angry, so he could only shut up.

The on-site personnel quickly chased out under Qi Ziru's command.

By the time a group of people rushed out of the mine, it was already dusk and half a person could be seen.

Qi Ziru did not let everyone go around to search and search, but bluntly said in front of everyone, who could guarantee that the murderer had no reason to create suspicion, but was actually still hiding in the cave? Who can guarantee that the murderer didn't take advantage of the chaos to hide among everyone?
A head count was conducted on site and it was found that five supervisors were missing.

Qi Ziru did not take off the mask of the masked person and check them one by one.

Some people who earn this reward are also famous, and it is enough to let Shen Youkun know who they are, but they do not want to show their true appearance in front of everyone, but Qi Ziru does not check for this reason.

Qi Ziru did not let the guards who were secretly lurking around the area go back. He only left a small number of people to block the entrance of the cave. The rest of the manpower was all added to the excavation team, allowing everyone to clear the mine as quickly as possible. All remaining parts of the skeleton were dug out.

He accepted the suggestion of the two supervisors. There was no need to discharge the earth and rocks, but to dump them into the nearest tunnel. In short, the excavation speed should be faster.

After arranging all this, Qi Ziru struggled to get up from the recliner, raised his hand to stop the person carrying the sedan from accompanying him, and strolled through the valley. Only Shen Youkun followed.

Shen Youkun looked around nervously. After knowing who was causing trouble, he left the protective circle. He was indeed a little afraid that the murderer would suddenly jump out.

When there was no one else around, Qi Ziru stopped, glanced at his nephew, and looked at the dark sky, "Don't be nervous, I have already got my things, and I am busy running away."

Hearing this, Shen Youkun was indeed comforted. He looked back at the entrance of the cave and thought about his uncle's intentions. He was sure that the murderer had run away, so why did he say that the murderer might be in the cave and seal the entrance.

Qi Ziru's voice broke his thoughts, "Is it the big boss coming to visit?"

Shen Youkundun cheered up and said: "Yes, it's 'Sichun' and 'Wu Jinliang' who are here. After being reminded by the guard at the entrance of the cave, I remembered that Wu Jinliang should have seen me at the entrance of the cave. I was looking for you before, but for a moment It was neglected."

Qi Ziru clicked his tongue and sighed, "It's really them! Just two people dared to blatantly sneak in among so many people and act recklessly. Even such an obvious tall man dared to sneak in. They treated me as if they were nothing. How brave is this? Po! Putting aside all the fun we are playing around with, grabbing the treasure is more like searching for something in a bag. He is truly a character!
No wonder you would rather spend a lot of money to get them away than to have a direct conflict with them. It turns out that you have already experienced it deeply, but you refused to reveal it in advance. If you had known that there was a person with such means, how could you have let him do it so easily? How could you have let him succeed so easily? "Shen Youkun muttered with a guilty conscience: "I guessed it was them in the mine before, and wanted to tell you, but you scolded me and stopped me from saying it."

The implication is, take a look, there are some things that you don’t let me say when you want to say it, and you blame me for not saying it when you don’t want to say it. It’s hard for me to know whether it’s okay or not.

Qi Ziru, who was physically and mentally handicapped, didn't want to get angry, but at this moment he couldn't help changing his face and scolding, "Idiot! Haven't you said enough? Based on what you said, a thoughtful person can guess it as long as he knows more. Who took away the treasure?

Before we catch them, we must not let any outsiders know who stole the treasure. Only our forces can pursue it. Otherwise, you and I will not be able to explain to the family. You still want to provoke other forces. To seize the treasure? No one who heard your words today can be left alive! "

The mute Shen Youkun choked again and again, and finally realized that there was a missing string in his brain.

Feeling guilty, he changed the subject and said, "Uncle, that guy is very cunning. He let him run away with the treasure. I'm afraid it won't be that easy to catch him again."

Qi Ziru glanced at him angrily, then put his hands behind his hands and looked into the distance and said slowly, "If nothing else happens, he shouldn't be able to escape."

Shen Youkun was startled, "Can't you run away?"

He didn't know whether he was referring to now or whether he would be caught sooner or later. Looking at his uncle's leisurely and calm look, it seemed to be referring to the former. He vaguely realized something and couldn't help but look around.

Qi Ziru snorted, "Do you think I can put all the important responsibilities entrusted to you by the family? While you are recruiting people, I have already contacted a group of people here as backup. You can do it. If you can't, there will be someone at any time. Top.

When I came here after receiving the news that you had definitely found something, I surveyed the surrounding terrain and discovered that some possible routes were ambushed. I have already ordered that anyone who leaves this place without my permission will not be let go once discovered! "

Shen Youkun could understand such an arrangement, to prevent any fish from escaping, but he still doubted: "How many people have you deployed? The surrounding area is so large, there are too many paths to run."

Qi Ziru: "He is afraid of being chased, so he will be anxious to escape within a short distance. He will probably flee along an easy escape route, so the possibility of running into him should be very high."

Shen Youkun was still worried, "Uncle, that guy is not only cunning, but also a good fighter here. If we don't have enough people to stop him, I'm afraid we may not be able to stop him."

With such a large area, he believed that his uncle could not have deployed large groups of people everywhere, nor could he create such an exaggerated formation in the Land of Exile.

"He can't escape, unless he finds a loophole. Once he's discovered, he won't be able to escape even if he's at a high level of martial arts!" Qi Ziru's indifferent response revealed confidence.

Shen Youkun blinked his eyes on his face full of flesh, and understood that his uncle had prepared a backup plan very well. He immediately became excited and looked forward to what would happen when the thief Shi Chun fell into his hands. He couldn't help grinding his teeth.

Qi Ziru was not interested in his reaction. He lowered his head and paced back and forth, muttering to himself, "What exactly is that purple glittering nebula? Does the family know or not? They probably don't know, otherwise they wouldn't have let the family know about such an important thing beforehand..."

What he was thinking about now was, if he failed to stop the boss and let him escape, should he conceal the matter from the family? After all, all the relevant people who knew about the incident would be killed afterwards.

People are prone to be selfish and consider their own interests. He was worried that this matter would cause the family to be dissatisfied with him, causing him to leave here early and encounter an accident. After all, he had already found what the family asked him to find, and he really didn't want to cause any trouble.

Even though he was full of confidence in front of his nephew, the boss's ability to show off here made him feel a little bit uneasy, and he was still a little unsure in his heart...

Shi Chun and Wu Jinliang hurriedly ran to a mountain, moved a large stone, and took out two packages of clothes from it. The two of them usually had clothes to wear when they went out, after all, they represented the face of Dong Jiuyuan.

He also pulled out two weapons from the pit, a large and a small knife.

The small one is actually not small, it is the size of a normal sword, but it looks small compared to the big one, and it comes with a scabbard wrapped with cloth strips.

The broadsword had no scabbard, was completely black, nearly half a zhang long, and nearly a foot wide. The back of the sword was as thick as a fist. It was so big and heavy that Wu Jinliang carried it on his shoulder with one hand.

This knife has no history. He made it himself from a blacksmith. The blacksmith told him to use any material he wanted. Then, based on the principle of not taking advantage of a bargain, he made it himself using enough material. Later, he found that a big thing had its advantages in fighting, so he got used to it after using it for a while.

Normally when Shi Chun wanted to show off, he would let Wu Jinliang take the sword, but it was naturally unnecessary to do so when he was escaping and protecting himself.

After the two men put the big rock back in place, they grabbed their knives and bags and ran away quickly again.

The two of them ran along low-lying areas such as ravines all the way. They did not dare to run to high places easily because they would be easily discovered. Only when they occasionally wanted to see the situation behind them would they climb the nearest hill and look back to see if there were any pursuers.

After running for a while, he happened again. He looked back at Shi Chun who was about to go into the ravine again. Suddenly, he reached out and pressed Wu Jinliang's shoulder, and they both stopped halfway up the mountain.

Wu Jinliang was about to ask what was wrong, but before he could ask, Shi Chun looked around warily and said, "No!"

He immediately turned around, crouched on the top of the mountain again, and looked back to see where he came from.

So Wu Jin and Liangmao came to him and asked, "What's wrong?"

Shi Chun said in a deep voice: "It's too peaceful. No one has chased us along the way. Do you think it's normal for us to escape like this?"
