Showdown: Hanba is hiding in my house

Chapter 94

The person who came was Zhao Kai, who was from Yehua Village, Nancheng. He looked like five people and six people, but he was short in stature, and looked quite treacherous.

With a broad face, a knife scar slanted from the tip of the left eyebrow to the right cheek, his eyes were like tigers and wolfs, but his words were quite flattering.

Shen Lang's grandfather used to drive away corpses in Yehua Village, so many fellow villagers there also knew Shen Lang.

This time, Wild Flower Village was in trouble, because they unsealed an ancient well that had been dusty for a long time during construction.

Yehua Village is a nice village, surrounded by mountains, with beautiful scenery, but the traffic remains the same. In the old days, you had to climb mountains to get in and out.

This time the accident happened precisely because of the second road construction, but the problem was the first road construction.

That was 60 years ago. The village head at that time was Zhao Kai's grandfather, his grandfather's father. His name was easy to remember, Zhao Chuanzong.

The meaning of passing on the family line from generation to generation is very good, and it also means to make the Zhao family prosperous.

However, all parts of the country were under construction at that time, so Lao Zhao began to tinker with a road out of the mountain, because the mountain separated the inside and outside of the village, which also prevented the mountain products in the mountain village from being sold in time.

Fresh products such as matsutake and bamboo shoots will go bad in two or three days, but they are still expensive.

And it takes two days to travel from the village to the outside through the mountains.

Old Zhao has been troubled by this matter, and he also blamed himself for this matter.

Later, an instructor came over and said that a cave could be opened on the west mountain. You only need to cover your face for 20 meters, and you can take a shortcut and go directly through the mountain.

In this way, a road can be opened, shortening the two-day journey to half a day. If the road is wider, it will be possible to drive ox carts back and forth to the village, which will be even shorter.

The instructor said that if you drive a tractor, it only takes three hours to go from the village to the market.

This is great news for Lao Zhao, after all, the people in the village are too poor.

Some poor brothers only have one pair of trousers. If they go out, they wear trousers. Those who don't go out just stay at home.

Lao Zhao told the whole story, and everyone agreed. After all, the great leader once said that if you want to be rich, build roads first.

Because it was poor at that time, there was no machinery to break through the mountains, so everyone used the simplest method, that is, soil explosives.

At the beginning, the generation of Nancheng was a bandit, especially in the villages in the deep mountains and old forests, there were more or less guys, some had shotguns, and some had explosives.

Therefore, each family also contributed manpower and began to discuss the major matter of opening the mountain.

When the mountain was opened, they first held a mountain opening ceremony, which was to burn incense and pray with the ancestors.

However, many old people in the village said that the mountain cannot be opened, saying that there is a big tomb in the mountain, and a great hero is buried in it, and that it would be disrespectful to the ancestors to open the mountain.

Of course, Lao Zhao didn't care about these things, but he didn't expect that the old men in the village would come out to stop him from opening the mountain every time. In order to prevent Lao Zhao from destroying the so-called feng shui pattern of the village, they did not hesitate to lie on the place where the mountain was opened, saying that they only wanted their old bones If you don't die, you won't let Lao Zhao succeed.

Old Zhao yelled, no matter how good Fengshui he is, if he doesn't open up mountains and build roads, the village will be poor. It's fine for the old people to be poor in this life, but future generations will be poor.

Later, Lao Zhao planned to secretly lead people to open the mountain when he worshiped the ancestors one day. The old people in the village only reacted when they heard the sound of the explosion of the mountain, but it was too late.

At this point in the story, Shen Lang looked at Zhao Kai: "Isn't this a good thing? And I remember, when I was in high school, when my old man and I came over, we walked through caves."

Zhao Kai took out a cigarette and handed one to Shen Lang, his brows were furrowed tightly: "It would be nice if this was the case, but then someone died."

Zhao Kai shook his head helplessly, looking at his appearance, it seems that this matter is still very big.

In the distance, Mai Meng bought three boxes of meals, and they used Shen Lang's money. The meals were very simple, one meat and two vegetables, three meals, eight yuan for a box of rice, and a total of 24 yuan.

Shen Lang handed the boxed lunch in front of Zhao Kai, Zhao Kai smiled with a cigarette in his mouth, "How is that so embarrassing, obviously we are here to ask you for help, you still invite me to eat."

"It's okay, no matter whether the business is successful or not, you have come from afar because you respect my old man. I think even if the old man is still alive, he will be so friendly." Shen Lang took out a bottle of pickled peppers from the cabinet, He first mixed a chopstick into the rice.

Zhao Kai also ate some, tasted the taste: "It's not bad."

"It was a gift from Mrs. Long." Shen Lang said, "She pickled it herself."

Zhao Kai continued: "Originally, it was indeed a good thing to open a mountain, but strange things happened one after another..."

"Oh?" Shen Lang became interested and listened while eating without disturbing Zhao Kai again.

It turned out that Zhao Kai’s great-grandfather led the team to open the mountain, and everything went smoothly. After half a month, a cave three meters deep was dug. When the things in the mountains were sold, he led people to hurry, and sometimes even dug with lanterns.

At that time, we were poor and there was no electricity in the mountains, so it was normal to dig with lanterns.

Of course, it is more appropriate to say that the lantern is a horse lantern, with copper skin on the top and bottom, and a glass cover in the middle, but the folks like to call it a copper lantern.

It was evening at that time, and it happened to be raining heavily. Because the water and soil nearby were not solid, landslides occurred from time to time.

For the sake of safety, the big guys planned to do the work early, but Lao Zhao said that the cave should be reinforced first, otherwise if the landslide really happened, the hard work for a few days would be in vain.

At that time, heavy rain was pouring down, and it was also mixed with frightening bursts of lightning. From a distance, it looked like God was angry.

A lot of rain fell from the mountain, and when the village chief was about to come out, suddenly a sarcophagus slipped down from the ceiling of the cave and hit him in front of him.

At that time, he felt something was wrong and was about to run away. Unexpectedly, one of his legs was pressed down by the stone brought down from the sarcophagus.

Old Zhao yelled, wanting young lads to come and save people, but at that time people had conservative concepts, and when they saw the coffin fall, they thought it was the mountain god who was angry.

A young man was closest to Old Zhao. Old Zhao hugged his leg and begged him to help him, but the young man refused to make a move and even kicked Lao Zhao's hand away a few times.

Originally, if he had pulled Lao Zhao at that time, perhaps Lao Zhao would have been saved.

After everyone evacuated, the landslide caused the cave entrance to be filled up.

People thought that Old Zhao was dead, but at this moment, the cries for help from inside let people know that Old Zhao was not dead yet, but the situation was definitely not optimistic.
