Chapter 100 Entering the Copper Mine
Zhu Mingqing and Luo Tian continued to move forward. About half an hour later, a fork appeared in front of them.
"Qingqing, go to the right." The little world spirit was just like a human GPS. Knowing that it loved to hear compliments, Zhu Mingqing praised it generously.
The little world spirit chuckled and spun around happily in the fairy palace.
Aunt He stayed where she was, curled up on the dirty ground, crawling towards the direction she came in like a maggot.
Every time she crawled a distance, she was dragged back.
Back and forth.
I don’t know how many times I climbed it.
His clothes were torn, his body was covered in blood, and his face was scratched by stones.
A deep mark was left on the ground.
When she reached the end of the climb, she was really out of strength, and Wen Baolu pressed her in front of her uncle, forcing her to kowtow continuously. There were bloodstains on her forehead, which flowed down her temples.
"I'm sorry..." Wen Baolu took the cloth out of Aunt He's mouth. No matter how many times she said it, she didn't arouse the other party's sympathy.
She said weakly: "Bao Lu...I am your aunt...You can't...do this to me."
Wen Baolu turned a deaf ear and kept moving his hands.
If anyone dares to hurt someone Wen Baolu cares about, he will not let her die easily.
Yes, there are also people who kidnapped Baozhong!
…
The two walked to the end.
"There's no way!" Luo Tian was surprised. "Madam, did we take the wrong path?"
"Shh-"
Zhu Mingqing moved his ears, signaling him not to speak.
There were footsteps outside, and the faint complaints of two people were heard.
"Three more people died. There's almost no one left in the mountains!"
"Stop talking, or someone might hear you."
"I know. Let's go quickly, just leave the body over there and go back quickly."
After the footsteps faded away, Zhu Mingqing found the inconspicuous mechanism above his head and pressed it again.
A small staircase of about ten steps appeared in front of me.
After coming out of the passage, Zhu Mingqing realized that he was out of the city and the area was mostly mountains and forests.
But from a distance, there seemed to be a group of buildings halfway up the mountain, and it was obvious that there were quite a few people there.
That should be the location of the copper mine.
She turned to Luo Tian and said, "Just stay here, don't follow me."
Luo Tian nodded and took out the telescope: "Madam, this is for you."
Zhu Mingqing took it and said, "If you're scared, go back to Baolu. Remember to protect yourself. I'll be back soon."
As long as we can confirm that there is a copper mine there, everything will be easy.
Bright sunlight shines through the gaps, casting mottled shadows of the trees.
A shadow was moving as fast as the wind on the road. When she passed the place where corpses were dumped, which looked like a mass grave, she stopped.
Zhu Mingqing squatted down and fixed his eyes on the nearest corpse.
Sure enough, the dirt between the fingers was clearly visible, faintly mixed with some bright yellow substances.
It is undoubtedly a copper mine.
However, in order to find out more clearly, she quietly went to the middle of the mountain.
In front are the guards patrolling back and forth.
Just as Zhu Mingqing was thinking of a way to get in, he saw a small group coming out. They were pulling a cart with baskets of copper coins on it, and were going down the mountain along the road.
She immediately trotted over, and while the people in front were not paying attention, she quickly knocked the last person unconscious and quickly took him into the space.
The person in front heard the noise and looked back, only to find it was empty.
"Hey, why is Liuzi gone?"
He was about to call for a halt when someone noticed him and said, "Maybe he's gone back to the mountains. Let's go quickly. Someone is waiting for him down below."
"That's strange."
As he spoke, he looked back and saw that the boy was running too fast.
Zhu Mingqing watched the group of people gradually walk away before he stripped off the clothes of the man named Liuzi, and then put on some makeup until he looked 70% like the man.
Then he gave the person some drugs before leaving.
Not far from him, he could hear Lao Zang's shrill cries, which sounded much weaker than usual.
If you get closer and take a closer look, you can see that there's something wrong with his face.
I'm almost going crazy.
Zhu Mingqing ignored him and walked into the village openly wearing this outfit.
"Liuzi, why are you back?" the guard at the door asked casually.
Zhu Mingqing covered his stomach, indicating that he was not feeling well, and then walked quickly inside.
The guard now understood and said with a smile, "You've come to the wrong place. The toilet is this way."
As he said this, he pointed to the right.
Zhu Mingqing paused, then hurriedly walked in the direction of his finger.
He waited until he could no longer see the other person before standing up straight.
According to the direction of going up the mountain, she should go to the southeast corner of the village first. Almost no one comes here, and the entrance to the mine is in the middle, which is also the place with the most guards.
Zhu Mingqing followed the patrolling guards slowly, occasionally hiding his body to observe, and only then did he get a clear view of the mine and the village.
In the middle is the entrance to the copper mine, in the southwest corner is the guard residence of the village, in the northwest is the residence of the village owner and some small leaders, and in the northeast, there is a row of densely packed low houses, which are extremely simple and can only serve to shelter from wind and rain.
It's time for lunch.
No one came out of the mine entrance, but some people walked in carrying wooden barrels.
Zhu Mingqing looked at the two guards at the door, then picked up a stone and threw it hard.
"Who?"
The guard at the door noticed something and immediately became alert.
"I'll go take a look, you stay here and watch."
As soon as the man left, Zhu Mingqing ran in another direction, ready to lead the man away again, when a drunk man walked over from the yard diagonally opposite.
He pointed at the remaining guards and shouted, "You, yes, you, go and bring some wine to the Second in Command!"
The gatekeeper hesitated: "This..."
The man was not fully conscious. He shook his head and kicked him: "You guys don't want to listen to the Second in Command?"
Zhu Mingqing's eyes flashed, and he was no longer in a hurry to go in.
She followed him to the room where the wine was stored, and after everyone left, she took out the drugs and put them in all the wine.
Judging from the way those people are drinking, I guess they will come to move more until they are all drunk.
That would make things much easier.
