Chapter 11 Mine Riot
At dusk, the afterglow of the setting sun reflects on the green hills and brownstones of the Ailao Mountains, interweaving a floating picture, which is extremely magnificent.

However, under the background of the billowing smoke above the Zhou family mine, a dim cloud of fire formed, which seemed to have a sense of mystery.

"Hey!"

Accompanied by the sound of horseshoes kicking, the carriage that Zhou Yan was riding in, and the more than a hundred Zhou family caravans, finally arrived at the foot of the Zhou family mine at dusk.

At the same time, Xu Wang, the deacon in charge of Zhou's mine, had already led several supervisors of the mine and waited at the foot of the mountain for a long time.

"call"

As soon as they saw the figures of Xu Wang and others, the speed of the more than a hundred riders of the Zhou family caravan slowly slowed down, and when the distance between the two sides was about three feet, they all reined in and jumped from their horses. Turned up and down.

"Brother Xu, it's been a while!"

One of them, a middle-aged man with a handsome face, led the horse out of the crowd, laughed and walked towards Xu Huang.

This man's surname is Zhao, and he is one of the deacons of the Zhou family caravan. He is also the deacon who talked with Zhou Yan before.

"Hahaha, brother, I have been waiting for Brother Zhao for a long time!"

Seeing Deacon Zhao striding towards him, Xu Wang smiled again and again as the overseers of the mine went up to him: "Quick, please on the mountain, I've already prepared food and wine for Brother Zhao, let's clean up the dust!"

After arriving at Deacon Zhao's side, Xu Huang lowered his voice and asked: "Brother Zhao, in the past you used to travel lightly, why did you escort a carriage to the mine today? Is there some important person in the family?" ?"

"That's right, the eldest son is in the car."

Deacon Zhao also lowered his voice, and whispered in Xu Wang's ear: "Half a month ago, the eldest son was severely injured by vomiting blood from the palm of the Xie family's young master, which made the owner lose face. Isn't this being punished to go to the mine to experience training?" Are you here!"

"Brother Zhao is serious? Even if the eldest son is not valued by the family, it is impossible for him to be dispatched to the mines!"

A strange color flashed in his eyes, and Xu Wang continued to whisper inexplicably.

"Brother Xu be careful, the master's affairs are not something we can discuss in private."

I heard Xu Wang's voice in my ears, and I saw Deacon Zhao's face straightened, and he said slowly: "In any case, the eldest son is also the eldest son of the Zhou family, brother Xu should come with me to pay a visit, after all The eldest son will be your immediate boss from now on!"

After finishing speaking, Deacon Zhao handed over the reins to a supervisor, and then walked towards the carriage that Zhou Yan was riding in with Xu Wang.

"My lord, Deacon Xu from the family mine is here!"

Walking to the side of the carriage, Deacon Zhao said.

And Xu Wang also bowed his hands and said: "Xu Wang, the deacon of the mine, welcome the eldest son!"

Hearing the voices of Xu Wang and Deacon Zhao, Zhou Yan, who was sitting in the carriage and was practicing with his eyes closed, slowly opened his eyes and collected his energy.

"It's work!"

After walking out of the carriage, Zhou Yan said calmly.

"The whole journey is tiring, the Eldest Young Master must have been exhausted, and the villain has already prepared food and wine on the mountain, just to relieve the Eldest Young Master!"

The first time he saw Zhou Yan suddenly, a strange color flashed in the depths of Xu Huang's pupils, and then he raised one hand and said respectfully.

"Let's go!"

Smiling and nodding to Xu Wang, Zhou Yan walked straight towards Zhou's mine.

Since leaving Zhou's mansion, Zhou Yan spent the rest of the time practicing Thousand Spiders, Myriad Poisoning Hands and Phoenix Three Nods, except for the necessary sleep and meals.

After more than ten consecutive days of hard training, Zhou Yan also felt that his spirit was very exhausted. Now that he had arrived at Zhou's mine, he could just relax and rest.

Seeing Zhou Yan walking up the mountain first, Xu Huang and Deacon Zhao looked at each other, and quickly caught up with Zhou Yan's pace, leading Zhou Yan from left to right.

After walking for about half an hour, Zhou Yan followed Xu Huang and Deacon Zhao to a wide square.

At this moment, Zhou Yan's ears were filled with the sound of digging and yelling from the prisoners and miners at work.

At the same time, inside the several blast furnaces standing on the square that never went out day and night, there was a billowing heat wave, which made Zhou Yan feel as if he was soaked in scalding hot water.

"My lord, this is where miners dig and smelt ore, and the environment is indeed a bit harsh.

But please be patient, that is our residence, and the environment is much better than here. "

Xu Huan, the deacon of the mine, pointed to a brownstone courtyard on the east side and introduced it to Zhou Yan with a smile.

"It's okay, I can still bear the heat!"

Hearing Xu Wang's voice, Zhou Yan said with a smile, and then he walked quickly towards the direction Xu Wang pointed.

Although he could endure the scorching temperature here, since there was a more comfortable place, Zhou Yan naturally didn't want to stay here for a long time.

Seeing Zhou Yan's pace quicken, Xu Huang and Deacon Zhao hurried forward and continued to lead Zhou Yan towards the brownstone courtyard.

"Big brother, big brother, there is a riot in the mine!"

However, before Zhou Yan, Xu Wang and the others could walk far away, a panicked voice suddenly entered their ears.

Zhou Yan heard the reputation and saw a bald and honest young man who was as strong as a bull with a wide-bladed machete on his back, hurriedly running towards them from behind.

"what happened?"

At the same time, Xu Wang's figure suddenly quickened his pace, and he walked towards the young man with the same anxious expression.

"Huh? It seems that Xu Wang's experience has a lot of stories!"

Seeing such a scene, Zhou Yan's eyes flickered with shock.

Although this mine is one of the Zhou family's livelihoods, it is not valued by the Zhou family at all, and the supervisors on the mine are nothing more than ordinary people with rough skills.

If this mine belonged to the Zhou family's important place, it would be impossible for Zhou Yan to be sent here.

However, Zhou Yan did not expect that Xu Wang, a mere mine deacon, turned out to be a warrior who had really stepped into the realm of body forging.

You must know that in a small family like the Zhou family, a warrior who has stepped into the realm of body forging can already be a leader in the family's guard.

Whether guarding the Zhou family's caravan merchants or guarding the Zhou family's mansion, it is much better than being a deacon in a poor place like Zhou's mine.
