Chapter 665

~8 min read 1,425 words

To tell the truth, the entrance and exit of this stone mountain were designed quite reasonably. The main thing is that when people enter and exit, they only need to crouch down and walk in along the steps.

Of course, this is relative to Wang An, Seeing Mu Xueli, and others. If it were little devils, they wouldn't even need to crouch; they could just walk in directly without even hitting their devil heads.

Because as everyone knows, this kind of beast, the little devil, has an average height of only 1.5 meters, not even as long as the devil gun, the Type 38 rifle with a bayonet attached.

This statement is not nonsense, because from many old photos, anyone whose eyes are not problematic can see it.

For example, if a devil stands a Type 38 rifle with a bayonet attached beside him, you can very clearly see that the tip of the bayonet is exceeding the top of the devil's head by a portion.

And the reason why the Type 38 rifle was designed so long—that is, nearly 1.3 meters long without a bayonet—on one hand, is that a small-caliber long gun barrel can increase the range.

On the other hand, and the most important aspect, is to make up for the stature of the little devil, who is like Wu Dalang, when fighting with bayonets.

These are all facts! But the devil who designed this entrance and exit back then didn't consider the problem of whether people could push it open from the inside when the stone slab covered the entrance and exit, especially when there were many stones pressed on the stone slab.

This led to the fact that after the stone slab covered the entrance and exit, the angle between the slope of the few steps at the entrance and exit and the stone slab was only about 45 degrees, but in the distance between the stone slab and the steps, it was a cave.

If people want to push open the stone slab, they have to enter this cave where they can't even straighten their backs while sitting, because the top of their heads is the stone slab.

But in this way, wanting to smash the stone slab is difficult; there is no space to swing your arms, which is just like what Seeing Mu Xueli said, "can't use any force"! You can only kneel outside like this young devil, holding the mortar barrel and having to stretch your arms, struggling to smash it one light time after another.

Now these 5 devils are like wild boars put into a cage, full of irritability and anxiety, trying every possible way to destroy the door of this cage and escape.

As for the secret passage Wang Li was worried about, it didn't exist at all.

Because Wang Li couldn't imagine at all how arrogant the little devils were in the Northeast back then; how could they need a secret passage used for escaping?

To tell the truth, a beast is just different from a person, because it doesn't know how to leave a way out for itself at all.

After a long time, this devil who was kneeling and smashing the stone slab, because of swinging the mortar barrel with his arms for a long time, finally couldn't swing it anymore.

But immediately after, the next devil took over the mortar barrel and continued to smash.

Just like that, one devil after another took turns, and the sound of "bang, bang, bang, bang..." never stopped.

It must be admitted that the endurance of this beast, the little devil, still has to be said to be quite awesome.

Because apart from that old bastard, the other four young devils took turns taking over the mortar barrel and smashed it one after another; no one said they would give up.

To say that in this situation, having no endurance might not be normal. After all, whether it is a person or a ghost, they are all afraid of death. Fighting might still give them hope; not fighting is just waiting for death.

Just when these 5 devils were cursing and smashing that stone slab, in the old pit more than ten miles away, the cheers of Wang An and the three of them finally arrived.

The reason is none other than that these three people dug up a 5-grade leaf ginseng.

You have to know that for a 5-grade leaf ginseng, even the purchase price of the supply and marketing cooperative is already more than 3,000 yuan.

You have to know that 3,000 yuan at this time, even if a formal employee doesn't eat or drink, would take more than 6 years to save up.

More than six years of conscientious work can buy such a ginseng root. Thinking about it, it's quite amazing.

After all, with the income of farmers, they couldn't afford it in a lifetime, damn it!

Seeing Mu Xueli said with an excited face: "Brother-in-law, this legendary 5-grade leaf ginseng, we finally dug it up."

Wang An also said very happily:

"Yeah, we've dug so many, and finally the real big goods have come, hahahaha."

Although he knew that among this piece of ginseng, there was a 6-grade leaf big good, being able to see 5-grade leaf with his own eyes is actually a fortunate thing.

After all, the age of 5-grade leaf ginseng has already exceeded 80 years. Such ginseng is already a real treasure! When Seeing Mu Xueli spent a full 2 hours to perfectly dig out this 5-grade leaf ginseng, the three of them looked at the ginseng on the ground, and the praises were endless.

Wang Li sighed and said:

"This 5-grade leaf ginseng is really big, a whole circle bigger than those two 4-grade leaf ones."

Because the ginseng was dug out by Seeing Mu Xueli, Seeing Mu Xueli said proudly to claim credit:

"Yeah, it's almost as thick as my thumb. These roots are too dense; they made my eyes dizzy, and now my neck doesn't dare to move hard."

Wang Li answered perfunctorily without lifting his head: "Yeah, Brother Mu is the hardest working. I'll boil a big egg for you to eat when we get home."

After Wang Li finished speaking, Wang An couldn't help but laugh.

Although Wang Li is not as good at talking as Seeing Mu Xueli, he often chokes Seeing Mu Xueli with one sentence.

And at this time, although Wang Li spoke nicely, his attitude was perfunctory to the extreme.

It looked like an adult coaxing a child, similar to:

"My son works the best; I'll boil an egg for you when we get home!"

"Don't cry; if you don't cry, I'll boil an egg for you when we get home."

Seeing Mu Xueli's originally proud face dropped directly, and he said unpleasantly: "If I want to eat an egg, do I need you to boil it? Hurry up and give me a cigarette; you have no eye for things, do you?"

Wang Li took out a cigarette and matches with a smile, pulled one out, and stuffed it into Seeing Mu Xueli's mouth. But after lighting the cigarette, Wang Li said with a grin: "Dig well, Brother Mu. If you dig up big goods again, I'll buy you Huazi to smoke."

Seeing Mu Xueli didn't listen to Wang Li's set at all, directly spitting the smoke he inhaled into Wang Li's face, and said unpleasantly: "Get lost to the side. I'm your brother, do you know that? Are you teasing your brother like a child?"

When Wang Li heard this, he just laughed "he-he-he-he..." and didn't answer.

Although Wang Li looked very happy and bickered with Seeing Mu Xueli, it was only when he was in the mountains.

Usually, although Wang Li would speak and laugh, Wang An discovered that Wang Li's smile was clearly fake, as if he were forcing a smile.

It could be seen that the matter of disfigurement was really too big a blow to Wang Li, a 17-year-old boy.

After taking a puff of the cigarette, Wang An suddenly thought that Fang Xiue and her sister were a family of traditional Chinese medicine. He didn't know if they had any good methods for the scars on a person's face.

Keeping this matter in his heart, Wang An looked at his watch; it was almost 12 o'clock, so he said to Seeing Mu Xueli and Wang Li: "Let's pack up and eat first. We'll dig after eating."
