A few days later, in Jiujiang Prefecture, Jiang Family

Master Jiang summoned the butler to ask:

"The third brother hasn't come back from the mine yet?"

The butler replied respectfully:

"Yes, sir."

Mr. Jiang was filled with doubts:

"Although the third brother likes to play, he is definitely not a person who does not know the difference between the important and the unimportant. It is impossible for him to stay outside and play around with the jade material for so many days."

"He hasn't returned yet, something must have happened at the mine!"

While he was talking about this, another steward came to report:

"Master, the stone merchant from Bei'an Prefecture sent someone to tell me that the stone materials they ordered recently are already late for quite some time!"

Master Jiang immediately called someone over to inquire about the details, and found out that the Lushan Mine had not delivered any stone materials to Bei'an Prefecture for more than half a month.

Considering that his third son never returned, Master Jiang was certain that something big must have happened at the Lushan Mine!

Did the people in the mine steal and rebel, or did outsiders come to seize the mine?

No matter what the situation is, if anyone dares to lay his hands on the Jiang family's property, he will make sure that person is killed without a burial place!

Master Jiang's face was extremely gloomy, and he gritted his teeth and ordered:

"Come here, take my visiting card to the General's residence. I want to visit the General in person tomorrow!"

The next day, he borrowed 500 garrison troops from the Lieutenant General of Jiujiang Prefecture, and took dozens of servants with him, and rushed to the Lushan mine with murderous intent.

However, when he arrived at the mine, he did not see the people occupying the mine as he had imagined.

We found the thatched hut at the mine, and it was also empty.

In the mine where hundreds of miners were working, there was not a single person in sight.

"Search!"

At a command from Master Jiang, five hundred guards and dozens of servants began searching everywhere.

It wasn't long before there was progress.

"Master Jiang, there is a major discovery in the back mountain!"

Master Jiang hurriedly followed the defenders to the place where the discovery was made.

It was a huge naturally formed pit filled with numerous bones and emitting a strong stench of corpses.

There were many people dressed in the clothes of Jiang family servants, struggling to move, and they looked like they were still alive.

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and rescue them!"

Master Jiang shouted angrily.

"Master Jiang, we can't get in there."

The seconded officers and soldiers guarded the road.

Master Jiang frowned, totally not understanding why these people said such nonsense.

He was eager to find his servants to ask what happened in the mine. He didn't bother to argue with the officers and soldiers, and directly ordered the servants he brought with him:

"Go and bring two people up for questioning!"

"Yes!"

After receiving the order, several people ran towards the big pit full of human bones.

The next moment, an incredible scene happened.

They walked to the edge of the pit, but were unable to move forward.

Several people tried hard to squeeze forward, sweat broke out on their faces, but they still remained the same.

Finally, I could only come back to report in a daze:

"Master, we can't get close to that big pit!"

Obviously, that's why the people in the mine were trapped and couldn't get out.

No one had ever encountered such a weird thing.

Master Jiang thought for a while with a gloomy face, and finally gritted his teeth and ordered:

"Use people to push them, use knives to chop them! No matter what, we have to bring the people inside up!"

Now, except the servants inside, no one could tell him what had happened.

Instead of investigating everywhere, it is better to take the time to find these people first.

Then, hundreds of people took turns to hack, chop and ram.

After struggling for more than two hours, I suddenly felt the ground shaking.

More than a dozen soldiers and servants who were rushing in were unable to stop in time and fell directly into the pit.

"Get through!"

Everyone shouted with joy.

At this moment, about ten feet away from the big pit, there was a sudden rustling sound near the big banyan tree, and something came out from the dense branches and leaves of the banyan tree.

"Master, there are people there!"

A sharp-eyed servant shouted loudly.

When everyone looked towards the big banyan tree, they found that there seemed to be a person standing high on the top of the tree.

"Go get that guy down."

As everyone tried to climb the big tree, they heard a loud bang.

The man in the tree fell down and landed on his face.

At the same time, a huge white cloth was hung from the tree, on which were written two shocking characters in dried blood:

"The Jiang family has committed so many evil deeds that they will surely be punished by heaven!"

Master Jiang's face turned pale as he looked at the fat body lying motionless on the ground, and he had a bad guess in his mind.

"Turn him over!"

The fat corpse on the ground was turned over, and everyone immediately recognized the man's identity. He was Mr. Jiang's third son, Mr. Jiang!
