Chapter 9214 Going up the mountain
The next day, Zhao Hai left Xiahe Village and rushed to another location with the whole village reluctantly seeing him off. However, Qian Yun and Wu Ding behaved today. Very excited, riding on the horse, with a smile on his face all the time, looking at them, Naughty Hai didn't say anything, he just smiled slightly, he knew that this experience, for Qian Yun and Wooding It is definitely a good thing and will strengthen their Taoist heart.
In the following period, Zhao Hai and the others have been dealing with ghosts in various villages and towns. Some things are indeed caused by ghosts, and some things are not. As long as it is caused by ghosts, they will Everything was solved. It was not a matter of ghosts. They also found out the reason so that the local people were no longer afraid.
This time Zhao Hai and the others wandered outside for more than a month. After cleaning up the last ghost, they began to walk back. But this time when they walked back, there were many When we were there, we lived directly in the wild instead of living in towns or villages. At the same time, our traveling speed also accelerated a lot.
The purpose of their doing this was not to return to Blackwood City earlier, but to visit Jitai Mountain. Construction of Jitai Mountain had been started for some time, and they had always wanted to Went there to see how well it was built, so they walked a little faster, and finally arrived at the foot of the Altar Mountain after driving for five days.
When they arrived at the foot of the altar mountain, they were really stunned for a moment, because there were a lot of things piled up at the foot of the altar mountain. There were also several cabins beside it, and some people were busy there. When they saw Zhao Hai and the others, When they arrived, those people were a little panicked, but when the leader saw Zhao Hai, they all relaxed.
Then those people came to Zhao Hai and the others and saluted Zhao Hai. When Zhao Hai saw this person, he really knew him. He was one of the helpers. His child was older. Although he was not sent to Zhao Hai to practice martial arts, Zhao Hai still had some impressions of him, so Zhao Hai greeted him with a smile: "Old Wu, what's wrong? Have you come to Jitai Mountain?"
This old Wu looks like he is over fifty years old, with a shrewd look on his face, but he has only one son in his life, and his son , but not shrewd at all, and a little stupid. There is no way for such a person to become a helper. Old Wu has been worried about his son's future livelihood.
This time Zhao Hai and the others were going to arrange an escape route. Master Wu thought of him and told him about this matter. Old Wu was also about to quit the job of helping others. When Master Wu heard that After saying this, he immediately agreed and led his family to Jitai Mountain, where their family had already settled down.
When Old Wu saw Zhao Hai's appearance, he immediately saluted Zhao Hai and said: "Yes, sir, we still have some things that have not been transported to the mountain. I am here to watch them work. "After saying that, he pointed at the people who were working. Only then did Zhao Hai He turned around and glanced at the people who were working. They were all strong laborers, but all of them had a mark on their necks. As long as the person was marked with this mark, it meant that he was a slave. , it seems that these people are all slaves.
Zhao Hai didn't say anything, but said to Lao Wu: "We are going back to the city. Let's come here to take a look today. Let's go up the mountain first." After saying that, he handed the horse to Lao Wu, because Zhao Hai knew very well , there is no way to go up this altar mountain by horseback. If you want to go up this mountain, the best animal is actually a donkey, and the horse is a little inferior.
Old Wu naturally would not object, and led Zhao Hai to the road up the mountain. As he walked, he said to Zhao Hai: "Now a shelf has just been built on the mountain. It is mainly for transporting things. It cannot sit on people. , so if people want to go up the mountain, they must take the mountain road. In the future, we will build several shelves so that people will not have to walk on the mountain road when going up the mountain. You can just sit on the hanging basket and go up."
Zhao Hai nodded and said with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work these days. We must build the altar mountain well. We are here. It's the last resort for people to retreat. It's time. Normally, your life here may be a bit harder, but if you have any requests, feel free to ask for them. I I'll let Mr. Wu handle it for you."
Old Wu shook his head and said: "It's not hard, it's not hard. Now wooden houses have been built on the mountain, and there is no shortage of food and use. We are living a good life here. Don’t worry, adults. Please rest assured. We must build Jitai Mountain well so that we all have the best escape route. "
Zhao Hai nodded, and then nodded to Old Wu. At this time, they also reached the road on the mountain. Zhao Hai led Qian Yun and the others directly up the mountain, and Old Wu wanted to stay. Watching the slaves working at the bottom of the mountain, the three of them paid attention as they walked up the mountain. They found that the mountain road had indeed been repaired by someone, and he was relieved. When the three of them arrived at the top of the mountain, they found that the top of the mountain had been well built. Many wooden houses had been built on the mountain. There were originally some trees on the top of the mountain, but it seems that all the villages have been cut down now. However, several rows of bamboos have been planted on the edge of the platform on the top of the mountain. However, it seems that these bamboos were planted not long ago, and the bamboos are not very tall.
Zhao Hai knows that this kind of bamboo is a special kind of bamboo here in Blackwood City. This kind of bamboo grows very fast. After being treated, it can grow very tall in one or two years, and It is very strong and a high-quality building material. Zhao Hai is very satisfied with the work of these people.
At this time, the helpers who were watching on the top of the mountain also came to Zhao Hai, led Zhao Hai to visit the top of the mountain, and also let Zhao Hai take a look at the hanging basket rack they built. But what Zhao Hai designed, they had already built, and it was very wrong. Two cows pulled a winch there, and they could transport things from the bottom of the mountain directly to the mountain, and the speed was much faster.
The fields on the top of the mountain have all been cultivated, and things have been planted, and they have obviously been planted for some time. Those things have grown very long. When Zhao Hai saw this situation , also smiled slightly, it seems that these people who come to work on Jitai Mountain are very capable. It took less than two months to build the top of the mountain like this, which is already very remarkable.
Zhao Hai also went to take a look at the water pool. The water pool was really deep, and people in the Tianshan Mountains had been using water these days, and the water level in the water pool did not drop. Zhao Hai even took a sip of the water. , I found that the water was very clear and sweet, The taste turned out to be very good. This made Zhao Hai stunned. He felt that the water in the pool was not as simple as ordinary spring water. He immediately felt the changes in the water elements in the water, and his mental power was even stronger. He entered the water directly.
After his spiritual power entered the water, Zhao Hai felt that the water seemed to have a water vein, and this water vein did not seem to come directly from the ground. Instead, it seemed to have come from somewhere else. Thinking of this, Zhao Hai couldn't help but look around, and finally focused on the surrounding mountains. The source of the water may be one of the surrounding mountains.
But Zhao Hai didn’t say anything. If he told the people here, they wouldn’t understand and would only cause trouble for themselves, so Zhao Hai simply stopped talking. He led Qian Yun and Wu Ding walked around the mountain for a long time and took a look at the specific situation on the mountain. There were only a few households on the mountain watching, and the rest were all Slaves, these slaves were both male and female. Zhao Hai asked about the situation. Some of the family members of these slaves were sold to other places, and some were still living in the homes of their original owners. Zhao Hai directly gave orders to the helpers. If If possible, buy all the family members of these slaves, so that these slaves will work harder.
Looking around on the mountain, Zhao Hai didn’t do anything. In fact, he could help Shufa to help the people on the mountain, but Zhao Hai didn’t do that. Here is what he gave The escape route they prepared is basically useless to Zhao Hai, so they have to build it themselves. He will leave in the future, and he cannot do everything. Otherwise, if something happens to them in the future, Everyone is counting on him, but what will happen to these people when he leaves?
After watching it on the mountain, Zhao Hai led Qian Yun and the others directly down the mountain. Although it was almost dark, Zhao Hai and the others still walked towards Blackwood City. As they walked in the same direction, Qian Yun said to Zhao Hai with some confusion: "Master, why are we in such a hurry to go back?"
Zhao Hai said in a deep voice: " We are staying at the connection point outside the city today. They are digging tunnels now. We have to go there and take a look. I am a little worried. The tunnel must be built as soon as possible. When we arrived outside the city, the city gate It should also be closed, so that we have a reason not to return to the city tonight, and returning to the city tomorrow will not arouse anyone’s suspicion.”
Only then did Qian Yun understand what Zhao Hai meant. He nodded, and Zhao Hai smiled slightly. Then he thought about it and said in a deep voice: "After I go back, I will stay in the city for a while to see your strength. I am getting stronger, and then I will leave Blackwood City. I can't stay here all the time. If I stay in Blackwood City, the Sheriff will always be there. Focusing your attention on us will be very detrimental to your actions. The Sheriff will not let it go and monitor anyone close to me. He will not pay attention until I leave. You, because you are not strong enough, can be under his control, and he will not worry about you anymore.”
Qian Yun nodded without saying anything. He knew that what Zhao Hai said was right. The county guard would never trust them. As long as Zhao Hai was around, the county guard would always focus on them. On their bodies, if the county guard really finds out what they are doing, it will be really troublesome. If the altar mountain is exposed, or the tunnel is If they are exposed, it will definitely be a disaster for them. At that time, the county guard will definitely deal with them. It is precisely because of this that Zhao Hai leaves, which is a good thing for them, but Qian Yun still doesn't want Zhao Hai to leave. If Zhao Hai leaves, they will have no backbone. They really don't want Zhao Hai to leave.
