Chapter 146: Quarry



A few people were originally chatting and laughing while strolling leisurely.

But the loud noise just now scared everyone.

The roar was so loud that one could even feel the nearby land shaking.

For a moment, Zhao Jun thought it might be an earthquake.

But there was only one loud noise and it soon subsided.

The captain's men were on alert just now, but now they have recovered.

"What was that just now? Why was it so loud?"

Liu Bang, who was still covering his ears, shouted.

Xiao He shook his head, not sure.

Fusu and Qingliu had no idea what was going on.

When the loud noise came just now, Fusu thought that an enemy was attacking.

But when I think about it, this is Xianyang, not Shangjun, so there should be no enemy attack.

Zhao Jun came to his senses, put down his hands that were covering his ears, and looked in the direction of the loud noise.

She had looked at a map of the area before coming here.

There seems to be a 'quarry' here?

"There seems to be a quarry nearby. The loud noise just now came from there."

Zhao Jun thought that these two things should be related.

"quarry?"

Everyone asked questions.

To be honest, except for the captain, no one present had ever seen what a quarry looked like.

Even Zhao Jun had never seen it.

"If it was a quarry, the loud noise could have been the sound of large rocks falling to the ground."

Xiao He said.

"A quarry? I've never seen one before. Should we go take a look?"

Liu Bang said this excitedly.

"Generally speaking, the people working in quarries are criminal slaves, or the poor who can't make a living."

Fusu said with some concern that it was not a good place.

"Well, now that we're here, we have to go and take a look. Maybe the treasure we're looking for is inside the stone."

"Let's go!"

"Okay!"

Zhao Jun excitedly strode towards that direction, holding a shovel.

Liu Bang followed closely with excitement on his face.

"You're leaving now, so reckless?"

Fusu stood there in a daze, expressing everyone's thoughts.

Qingliu looked at the person walking ahead with a look of helplessness on his face, and couldn't help but sigh.

"Adults sometimes also like to be in the spotlight."

It has to be said that Qingliu knows Zhao Jun best.

A few people watched the crowd moving further and further away and hurriedly caught up.

Not long after they started walking, they saw a crowd surging at the foot of a hill not far away.

It was difficult to see what they were doing from a distance, all I could see were several piled-up houses and black dots moving about.

"Sir, are we really going there? We are totally unprepared."

Fusu still spoke with some concern.

"Fusu, there's no time to prepare for the scenery we encounter along the way, or the places we encounter out of interest."

"We must learn to enjoy this kind of accidental beauty. Don't you think this will be a pleasant surprise?"

"It would be boring if we could prepare for everything in advance."

Zhao Jun said as he looked at the hill not far away.

"Yes, sir, you are absolutely right. I didn't expect you to be such a refined person. I thought so too. It's a shame we met so late!"

Liu Bang suddenly rushed to the side of Zhao Jun and spoke in a flattering tone.

Fusu nodded, not quite understanding.

Zhao Jun glanced at Liu Bang who was jumping up and down, and just rolled his eyes at him without saying anything.

"Okay, let's keep going and take a look inside."

After saying that, she continued to walk inside.

Zhao Jun had never seen a quarry, but he had occasionally seen it in TV dramas and had a vague impression of it.

It was not until they all stood at the gate of the quarry that Zhao Jun realized that the reality was not as difficult as what was shown in the TV series.

Several people stood at the door and looked inside curiously.

You can see people inside transporting stones with hunched backs.

The soldiers guarding the door soon discovered the crowd, and soon a group of people came out.

"Who are you? This is a key area of ​​the quarry. All non-essential personnel please get out of here."

The leading soldier shouted ferociously.

Zhao Jun didn't say anything, but just waved to the captain behind him.

The captain came out.

The King of Zhao did not want to reveal his identity, so he asked the captain to take out his token.

The captain's token of the Xianyang Royal Palace should allow them to enter and exit freely.

The leading soldier glanced at the captain's token.

When he heard him say that this group of people came from Xianyang, he immediately became friendly.

"So you are the gentlemen from Xianyang. Please come in."

"Are there any instructions for coming here today?"

The leading soldier welcomed everyone in and spoke to Zhao Jun with a nod and a bow.

The crowd on the other side who were constantly moving things were not at all affected by the arrival of Zhao Jun and others.

They all lowered their heads and worked silently.

Zhao Jun glanced at the soldier next to him and thought he was a bit noisy.

"We're just passing through here and taking a look. Are you the one who's primarily in charge of this quarry?"

Qingliu and others behind her were looking around curiously, even the steady Fusu was no exception.

"Your Excellency, I am primarily responsible for the safety of the quarry. The person in charge is Lord Zou Yong, who is over there."

The leading soldier pointed to a group of people standing not far ahead and said.

Zhao Jun waved his hand and told him to go ahead and do his work, and a few people came to Zou Yong's side.

At this moment, Zou Yong was looking at the drawing in his hand with a frown on his face.
