Chapter 307

The journey was a bit long, so reporter Gan played music to relieve his boredom. With the sound of music, I leaned on my seat and slowly fell asleep.

I had a very strange dream.

I dreamed that my head was in a black mist, with a black chain around my neck. Something invisible in the mist was dragging me in. I struggled with my head and kept shouting with my mouth open, but what could I do? I couldn't even hear what I was shouting.

When we woke up from the nightmare, we were already far away from Yinchuan city. The blue sky and white clouds on the national highway near Alxa were fresh, the air was clear, and there were many fewer cars.

The car pulled over and reporter Gan said he was looking for a place to relieve himself.

Xiaoxuan said Sister Gan, wait for me, I will go with you as a companion.

Seeing the two of them walking away, Dou Sprout yawned and said, "Feng... Fengzi, do you think the boss has entered Blackwater City by now? Have you dug up treasure?"

I thought about it and shook my head and said, "Maybe. I turned my head back and experts came to dig up Blackwater City. There must be some powerful earthworkers among them. Although I haven't seen them, there is a high probability that there will be people named Ma."

"Whose surname is Ma? What's Ma?" Dou Sprout asked curiously.

I said you don’t know? Brother, haven't you told me?

"Big brother? Which big brother are you talking about?"

Only then did I realize, how could Dou Sprout know that Dou Sprout was still running a boat on the sea when we were at Moth Mountain? He had never seen the Sun brothers and Sister Hong.

I thought of Sister Hong again.

There has been no news from her for so long, and I don’t know where she is now or how she is doing.

There is also the second brother. Baotou originally asked him to stay in Shunde to recuperate. Later, I asked Baotou several times about his condition, and Baotou always replied to me: "The second brother's body and bones are not in good condition. Try not to disturb him."

"Hurry up, tell me, what did you say about Ma?" Douya asked me urgingly when he saw that I was distracted.

Seeing that reporter Gan hadn't come back yet, I told Douyazai about his surname Ma.

The person surnamed Ma is Ma Zhenhai, who is from Luoyang. My eldest brother once told me when I was here that he said that Ma Zhenhai was a gopher. He had a very unique way of digging holes. The holes he drilled were well-recognized in the industry. This person Able to shovel with both hands at the same time.

The ancient circle is close to the square. In the past, the robbery holes in ancient times were all round. After the liberation of the Republic of China, the robbery holes were all square. Only the robbery hole made by the man named Ma was special, with a shape of pentagon or hexagon. Because he can shovel with both hands at the same time, it is equivalent to one person carrying two people.

"So awesome? Then he didn't need to install wooden boards in the robbery hole?" Dou Sprout asked.

I said this is not necessarily true, and it depends on the situation. If the soil is loose, it will not work without adding wooden boards, as it will cause landslides. This has nothing to do with the shape of the hole he dug.

Let’s popularize the science here. The Luoyang shovel is not used to rob tombs and dig holes. The Luoyang shovel is only used to take soil and explore pits to determine the location. The Luoyang shovel alone cannot rob a tomb. You really need to give someone a Luoyang shovel to dig holes in one night. No matter how exhausted I am, I can't dig a big hole.

When digging holes, you mainly use a cyclone shovel, a engineer shovel, and a cone-head shovel when you hit the hard soil layer.

There are two types of northern cyclone shovels. One is a hollow copper rod with copper wire inside. There are nine wavy spiral-shaped iron pieces around the copper rod. The end of the copper rod is wrapped in thick cloth. There are also A small rocker controls nine spiral iron pieces through copper wires hidden in the copper rod.

Think about it, it's similar to the principle of the hand rocker on the old water well. People hold the rocker on it and shake it as hard as they can. Then a large amount of soft soil on the ground will be brought out by the spiral iron piece, which is effortless and fast.

Nowadays, this kind of machine is also electric. Once you are skilled in using it, you can dig holes in the soil faster than a marmot or a pangolin.

The second type of cyclone shovel is the one I commonly use. It is a solid tube and not very long. The shovel surface is similar to a curved engineering shovel. It does not stick to wet soil and is suitable for digging holes in soft soil. It can also be used at critical moments. It is used to support the wooden planks used to break holes, and to slap people on the head and gain blackmail.

No need to pull out and twist the latches at both ends and put it in the bag, which is convenient and fast.

The girl ran away for a long time to relieve herself. She waited for a long time and no one came back.

"Where did you pee?" I noticed something was wrong. It had been half an hour since she left.

"Let's go, Fengzi, go and look for us. Don't let anything happen." Douyazai and I put on our clothes and got out of the car.
