Rebirth of the Forbidden City: The Troublemaker in the Courtyard

Chapter 319 Encounter



Chapter 319 Encounter

Zhong Yuemin was startled by Zheng Tong's sudden voice.

Turning around and seeing Zheng Tong squatting next to the stone gate with a serious and alert look on his face, Zhong Yuemin immediately became nervous.

"Brothers, don't go in, get out!"

After shouting into the cave, Zhong Yuemin was the first to retreat.

Following closely, the remaining twelve brothers also withdrew one after another.

A group of people gathered at the door, looking at Zhong Yuemin and Zheng Tong in confusion.

"What's going on, Leapman?"

A tall young man asked in confusion.

"Yeah, Yuemin, what happened? We've all gone in, and there's a stone door inside, but it's closed! I was just about to push it open when you startled me with your shout!"

Another braver and more aggressive young man followed up with another question.

Zhong Yuemin shook his head and then looked at Zheng Tong.

Zheng Tong called everyone over and pointed to the small wet spot in front of him.

"Guys, look what this is?"

After hearing Zheng Tong's question, everyone looked in the direction of his finger.

"What is this? Isn't it just a watermark?"

The fierce young man who had just asked Zhong Yuemin a question looked at him and said to Zheng Tong.

Zheng Tong rolled his eyes, feeling speechless.

By this time, Zhong Yuemin had already reacted.

Then he started talking.

"Although this place is close to the river and in the mountains, it doesn't seem strange to see such a water mark. However, please take a closer look around!"

Zhong Yuemin said this, pointing to the surrounding terrain.

Everyone followed his words and looked around.

Indeed, when you put it that way, there is indeed a problem.

It took more than a hundred meters of walking along the gravel road in the canyon to get in.

There is no river here, so it could only be some wild animal in the mountains that urinated here.

"Even if some wild animal wanders in, what can we do? We have more than a dozen brothers, some are big and some are short, and some are fire-breathing. Let alone a small wild animal, even if a tiger comes, it will have to avoid us brothers!"

It was the brave young man who spoke again.

Yes, these guys are so arrogant and domineering. Not to mention these beasts, even in the old city, when facing various forces, they have never been afraid!

Damn it! I avoid its sharp edge?

Sure enough, after this kid said this, everyone began to accuse Zheng Tong of being too timid.

Zhong Yuemin also looked at Zheng Tong and motioned Zheng Tong to continue.

Zheng Tong had no choice but to stand up from the ground and then spoke to everyone.

"Why don't you guys use your brains? What kind of animal would pee on a stone gate?"

When everyone was asked this question by Zheng Tong, they immediately looked at each other in confusion. It was not that they did not understand, but they suddenly realized that Zheng Tong's sudden nervousness was reasonable!

Yes, normally, wild animals and ferocious beasts in the mountains will also mark their own territories, and the method they use is to mark the territory by urinating.

However, there is no animal that urinates sideways facing upwards, except for one kind, and that is the dog!

Several guys who reacted had already quietly raised the weapons in their hands and began to face the direction of the cave vigilantly.

The other few who were slow to react, after seeing the actions of these guys, also reacted in a chain reaction and each of them took up their weapons and remained on guard.

Zhong Yuemin was holding a dustpan and standing at the front of the crowd, with Zheng Tong following beside him.

"What should we do about the Leapers? It's very likely that a group of people just went in with hounds, and the enemy and our own situation is unclear!"

Zheng Tong whispered in Zhong Yuemin's ear to persuade him that he was not like Zhong Yuemin and the others who were keen on fighting. He still cherished his life very much.

Zhong Yuemin looked at the group of friends behind him, then looked at the dark cave in front of him. After hesitating for a moment, he decided to retreat first.

To be honest, deep down in his heart, Zhong Yuemin wanted to go in and find out what was going on.

He himself was even braver than that fierce young man. There were hundreds of famous ruffians in the city. No matter how he counted, Zhong Yuemin was only one of them.

Just like Quan Dahu said just now, who the hell are they? Why should I avoid them?

But Zhong Yuemin's reason prevailed in the end. After thinking for a moment, he waved to the people behind him.

"Brothers, retreat! The enemy and our own situation is unclear. The instructor taught us that we cannot fight a battle without a clear understanding!"

"That's right. If we save the land but lose the people, we lose both the land and the people. If we save the people but lose the land, we save both the land and the people! Let's go, let's leave our living forces behind first, go back and develop Ge Ming's forces, then surround the city from the countryside and strike back!"

Zheng Tong quickly spoke up to echo Zhong Yuemin and shouted to the many buddies behind him.

Although Quan Dahu and many other buddies were unwilling to accept this, the current situation was indeed reasonable.

Everyone has read the quotations and revered them as sacred, so they naturally know that what Zhong Yuemin and Zheng Tong said makes sense.

(One more thing to say: the Teachers' Quotations collection is really awesome. Wu Hu bought a set last year and read it every time I have time! I also recommend everyone to check it out!)

Just as I was about to turn around and leave, I suddenly heard voices and dog barking from inside the cave.

Zhong Yuemin and the others immediately became alert and raised up again the various weapons they had just put down.

"Quan Dahu, Zheng Chishui, grab your earth-moving guns and go around to both sides of the bluestone gate. Quick!"

After hearing the noise, Zhong Yuemin immediately handed the earth-moving gun in his hand to Quan Dahu. After whispering a few words, Quan Dahu and Zheng Chishuai went around to the back of the door from the side.

Zhong Yuemin and the others stayed where they were, each holding a short knife and a spear made of a three-edged scraper and a wooden stick, looking vigilantly at the cave entrance.

“Woof woof!! Woof!”

“Woof! Um~ Woof woof woof!!”

Before anyone appeared, a few random dog barks were heard, even mixed with this kind of suppressed whimpering sound.

Then, a vague figure appeared, and Zhong Yuemin and a dozen other young men from the city of Beijing became extremely nervous.

About ten people and three hunting dogs came out from the bluestone door of the cave one after another.

As soon as they came out, they saw Zhong Yuemin and a dozen other young men holding weapons in their hands, so they all raised their weapons.

Compared with Zhong Yuemin and the others, those who just came out of the cave are much more domineering.

With just a quick glance, there were seven people holding guns, not to mention those holding long swords and spears.

Three homemade shotguns, two hunting rifles, an old rifle made in the old border area, and a half-new Type 56 semi-automatic rifle!

The gap in firepower was so huge that Zhong Yuemin's heart sank.

Before he could open his mouth to ask, the people opposite him had already spoken.

"Who are you? Why are you blocking us?"

(Still stuck!!)
