Origin
Chapter 54 0 Years Underground Palace
Although he had known for a long time that he would not be able to complete college, but he was about to leave, Wu Zhongyuan still felt lost. It is not right to say lost. It should be said that he felt lost, a little nostalgic, and a little regretful.
But it was time to leave, and it was the weekend when I left. Before I left, I didn’t forget to say hello to my class teacher, saying that something had happened at home and I had to rush back to deal with it.
He didn't say goodbye to anyone, and even when asked by Wan Shanhai and Wang Jize in the dormitory, he only said that he was going home, without too many explanations or a reluctant goodbye.
He only brought a few things that he might need before returning. It was useless to bring too many things because he could not bring them back.
Knowing that Wu Zhongyuan was leaving today, Wang Xinran prepared a car in advance according to his request, but until the moment Wu Zhongyuan got in the car, she had no idea where Wu Zhongyuan was going.
"Where to go?" Wang Xinran had wanted to ask this question for a long time.
"Go back to Huang County." Wu Zhongyuan said.
Wang Xinran had been to Huang County before. This time he didn't even need navigation. He was familiar with the roads and quickly left the city and got on the highway.
Wang Xinran had a lot of questions to ask, but she held back because she knew very well that even if she asked some questions, Wu Zhongyuan would not answer them.
Wu Zhongyuan didn't speak during the whole journey. When he was approaching Huang County, he finally spoke, "Do you know where my brother is?"
Wang Xinran shook his head, "Your senior brother is very capable of counter-reconnaissance. We have been looking for him, but there are still no clues. This person seems to have disappeared from the world."
Wu Zhongyuan nodded. What Wang Xinran said must be the truth. If they could find Lin Qingming, they would have used Lin Qingming as a bargaining chip to negotiate with him. They couldn't even find Lin Qingming, and he had no hope, unless Lin Qingming took the initiative to contact him, but this possibility was very small, because Lin Qingming knew very well that calling him might reveal his whereabouts.
"Are you worried about him?" Wang Xinran asked nonsense.
Since it is nonsense, there is no need to answer.
"Do you want to take him back?" Wang Xinran asked again.
Wu Zhongyuan still didn't answer. Some things were obvious. Lin Qingming had committed a capital crime and staying in modern times was a dead end. Only by taking him back could there be a chance of survival.
"You may not be able to go back, but you still want to take him back?" Wang Xinran shook his head.
"If he stays here, he will die." Wu Zhongyuan said.
People's patience has its limit. At this point, Wang Xinran could no longer suppress the curiosity in his heart, "You seem to be very sure. Can you tell me how you want to go back to the past?"
"You will know soon." Wu Zhongyuan said casually. It was not that he deliberately kept things secret, but that he did not dare to reveal it prematurely. He had to guard against Wang Xinran, or to be precise, the people behind Wang Xinran.
The more Wu Zhongyuan said nothing, the more curious Wang Xinran became, "As far as I know, the emergence of wormholes is very accidental, cannot be controlled by humans, and has no sustainability. How on earth do you go back?"
Seeing how uncomfortable Wang Xinran was holding back, Wu Zhongyuan couldn't bear it. "They created the conditions for me to go back."
Wu Zhongyuan didn't say anything, so Wang Xinran became even more curious, "What do you mean?"
"You will know soon." Wu Zhongyuan said.
Wang Xinran was depressed and angry, but more importantly, she was helpless. By this time, she had arrived at the toll station.
Wang Xinran paid the fee and got off the expressway, "Going to the hospital?"
Wu Zhongyuan shook his head, "I've been there before, but I won't go."
"Where to go?" Wang Xinran asked.
"Go back and take a look." Wu Zhongyuan said casually. After saying that, Wang Xinran frowned and raised his hand to point south, "Go south."
It was already past two o'clock in the afternoon, and it was 3:30 in the afternoon when he returned to Huangjiacun. Wu Zhongyuan got off the bus and bought incense and liquor on the way, so Wang Xinran knew that he had to go back to pay homage to his long-dead master.
The car stopped at the intersection in the east of the village. Wu Zhongyuan did not go up the mountain, but directly went to the foot of the mountain to offer sacrifices. According to Taoism, the afternoon was not a good time to pay homage, but he could not care about so much at the moment. He followed his authority and burned incense and candles. After drinking wine and kowtowing, Wu Zhongyuan returned to the car and said, "Let's go."
"Won't you go back to the village to have a look?" Wang Xinran asked.
Wu Zhongyuan shook his head. Farmers are not synonymous with simplicity and kindness. Of course, there are some who are simple and kind, but the atmosphere in this village is not like that. The people in this village are very exclusive. The master brought them to live here during his lifetime, and they were often looked down upon by others. Son, if they really respected them, the villagers would not give them nicknames like "old ghost, big ghost, little ghost".
Wang Xinran turned around and said, "You seem to be very confident."
"Why do you say that?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.
Wang Xinran pursed his lips at the top of the mountain to the north. The unspoken meaning was that if he was not sure, he would not come to say goodbye to his master.
Wu Zhongyuan didn't answer. In fact, he was sure because there were two wizards waiting for him. Even if one of them had a problem, the other one could send him back.
"Where are we going?" Wang Xinran asked.
"Go east to the main road, and then drive south." Wu Zhongyuan said. From here, you can see the mountain peak Wu Zhui mentioned, but you just need to go around it.
After driving seven or eight miles south from the main road, Wu Zhongyuan signaled Wang Xinran to turn right. There was a village road on the right. He followed the village road to the village, then drove north from the village and came to the back of the village.
There is a mountain to the north of this village, and there is a pig farm at the foot of the mountain. The big house Wu Zhui mentioned is actually a large shed for raising pigs. Wu Zhui didn't recognize the colored steel tiles, so he said it had a blue roof.
"What are you doing here?" Wang Xinran wrinkled his nose. The smell of the pig farm was naturally not very fragrant.
"Move the pig farm." Wu Zhongyuan said.
"What did you say?" Wang Xinran suspected that he heard wrongly.
"There is an underground palace underneath the pig farm," Wu Zhongyuan said. "Move the pig farm and bring an excavator over."
"Real or false?" Wang Xinran was dubious, "How did you know?"
"It's written on paper," Wu Zhongyuan said.
"Are you sure this is where it is?" Wang Xinran asked.
Wu Zhongyuan nodded, "OK, please bring the excavator over as soon as possible."
"That's easy for you to say," Wang Xinran looked troubled, "This matter is not easy to handle. We need to negotiate with the relevant local departments and communicate with the farmers."
"Didn't you say that you can provide me with all the help I need?" Wu Zhongyuan frowned.
Seeing Wu Zhongyuan being serious, Wang Xinran raised his hand hurriedly, "Okay, okay, let's go back first, and I'll try to communicate as soon as possible."
"I won't leave here. From now on, I will stay here." Wu Zhongyuan got out of the car with his backpack and walked up the mountain.
Wang Xinran shouted from behind, "What are you doing?"
"I'm afraid you are up to something." Wu Zhongyuan told the truth.
Wang Xinran was speechless.
There are many hills in the north, and the land is not necessarily flat. In some places, there is cultivated land on the mountains. This is the case here. Wu Zhongyuan sat down in a sheltered place under a field ridge on the mountainside.
Wang Xinran followed and made a phone call not far away. Wu Zhongyuan couldn't hear what he was saying, so he must be communicating with his superiors.
Ten minutes later, Wang Xinran came over and said, "I have reported it and they are coordinating."
"How long?" Wu Zhongyuan asked.
"I can't tell." Wang Xinran shook his head.
Seeing Wu Zhongyuan frowning, Wang Xinran hurriedly explained, "Land acquisition is the most sensitive matter now, and problems can easily arise if not done properly."
"You hurry up." Wu Zhongyuan said.
Wang Xinran nodded in agreement, and then persuaded Wu Zhongyuan to leave here and find a place to live outside. Naturally Wu Zhongyuan would not agree and was determined to stay here.
Wang Xinran had no choice but to go down the mountain by himself, go to the village store to buy some food and come back, waiting with Wu Zhongyuan on the mountainside.
It was very cold at night. Wang Xinran tried to persuade her to no avail and fell asleep in the car. Wu Zhongyuan stayed there and lit a fire to ward off the cold.
While waiting, Wu Zhongyuan took the opportunity to observe the surrounding terrain. If Wang Xinran and others did not believe what they said, they would most likely be able to control him after confirming the existence of the underground palace. If this happened, he could only escape and observe The surrounding terrain was designed to chart an escape route.
At noon the next day, a group of people came down from the mountain. They were cadres from the town and village. Wang Xinran came down from the mountain to take charge of coordination.
The land acquisition work did not go smoothly. The town sold 136,000 acres of land, but only gave the village 32,000 yuan, and the village only gave the pig farmers 800 yuan per acre per year, plus the temporary buildings for the pig farm. compensation.
Naturally, the farmers will not agree, and the landowners will not agree, and the towns and villages do not dare to force it. In recent years, forced demolitions and expropriations have always resulted in lives, and they are also afraid.
The land acquisition work has reached a deadlock, and Wang Xinran is embarrassed, "Now is a society governed by law, and we cannot break the law by enforcing the law."
"I understand," Wu Zhongyuan nodded, "I'll tell you personally. You bring two excavators. If you want a bigger one, we'll dig it tonight."
"How can it be so fast?" Wang Xinran was helpless.
Wu Zhongyuan was angry, "Why can't you adjust several excavators? Then you will have no use for them."
"Okay, okay, do you want a garbage truck?" Wang Xinran asked.
"No, I guess it won't be very deep." Wu Zhongyuan said.
"For safety reasons, people must be deployed to maintain order." Wang Xinran said.
"Are you sending people here to maintain order, or are you sending people here to catch me?" Wu Zhongyuan asked seriously.
"Why are you like this?" Wang Xinran was also angry, "We are not as despicable as you think. Don't always judge a gentleman with a villain's heart."
"The only thing to blame is that you have deceived me. Should I believe you?" Wu Zhongyuan asked with raised eyebrows.
Wang Xinran was at a loss for words, Wu Zhongyuan was talking about the key points and poking at the Achilles' heel.
Wu Zhongyuan got up and went down the mountain to knock on the door of the pig farm.
The door opened. The farmer didn't know Wu Zhongyuan, but he knew Wang Xinran behind him, and let the two of them in to discuss.
Wu Zhongyuan got straight to the point and asked the other party what other conditions he had besides the vested compensation. The other party asked for 50,000 yuan in compensation for relocation losses.
Wu Zhongyuan took out 50,000 yuan from his pocket and asked the other party to move now.
Seeing that he was anxious, the other party took the opportunity to ask for 10,000 yuan in cable money, and Wu Zhongyuan agreed.
Pushing too hard is a problem that many people have. The more happy he is, the more the other party will push his nose in his face. Vegetables grown on the pig farm also cost 10,000 yuan. Relocation may frighten the sows and affect the birth of piglets, which also costs 10,000 yuan.
Wu Zhongyuan tolerated all this, until the other party proposed to move immediately without having time to clean up the pig manure, and it would cost ten thousand hours. Wu Zhongyuan couldn't help it, and reached into his backpack, but this time what he took out was not money, but a gun.
Not only did he take it out, he also fired a shot at the ceiling. The farmer and his wife, including Wang Xinran, were all stunned.
"I'll give you two options, either take the 80,000 yuan and move immediately, or continue to extort money and I'll shoot you." Wu Zhongyuan said angrily.
The farmer and his wife were still confused, but Wang Xinran reacted and wanted to grab the gun, "What are you doing? Where did you come from..."
"Go away, I will kill anyone who stops me from going back," Wu Zhongyuan pushed Wang Xinran away and turned to the farmer and his wife and said, "Call the police immediately. If the police come and don't take me away, you will know what to do. ”
After saying that, he left the two of them shaking like chaff, picked up their backpacks, and turned around to leave.
Naturally, Wang Xinran had to do the job of wiping his butt. The police did come, but they were not here to arrest Wu Zhongyuan, but to convene all the villagers for legal education. So the farmers understood and wanted nothing more than to drive away the pigs.
At eight o'clock in the evening, the excavator was brought in. The pig house was about 40 meters from east to west. Two excavators, one on the left and one on the right, started working at the same time.
Except for the two drivers, Wu Zhongyuan and Wang Xinran were the only ones present.
Wang Xinran's expression was serious. She knew Wu Zhongyuan had a gun and could guess where Wu Zhongyuan's gun came from, but she did not ask Wu Zhongyuan for it because she knew Wu Zhongyuan would not give it to her.
Wu Zhongyuan's expression was also very serious. His previous shooting was not all because of the other party's endless blackmail. To a large extent, he took the opportunity to express his firm attitude to Wang Xinran, "I will kill anyone who prevents me from going back." This is to warn Wang Xinran. Don't break your promise.
The biggest difference between humans and animals is not that humans are smart while animals are stupid, nor that humans are kind while animals are cruel, but that humans can make and use tools but animals cannot. An excavator is also a tool with amazing efficiency. It can dig with just one shovel. Go both ways.
In less than ten minutes, the excavator to the west stopped. The driver stuck his head out and shouted to the two of them, "We can't dig anymore. There are big slabs underneath."
Wu Zhongyuan was overjoyed that the underground palace was really here.
At this moment, the driver's voice came from the east, "Same here, do you want to change the ram?"
"No," Wu Zhongyuan shouted loudly, "dig away the soil above and find the entrance..."
