Chapter 1127 The cannon is roaring, and the bullets are flying

That night, Yang Fei didn't dare to go back to his room.

A billion dollars is enough to make people go crazy to kill.

What's more, it's Africa again!

Just give some money, and most of them are outlaws.

Yang Fei prepared some food and drinks, and sat on the construction site of the refinery with Chen Ruoling, Dugu and others to eat.

"There was a slave trade in Africa a long time ago?" Yang Fei suddenly asked.

"Not so long ago, there was a slave trade here. Underneath the refinery, there used to be a slave trading yard. ”

Yang Fei said: "Oh, it's trading here?"

"Yes, slaves are brought to the stage like cattle, and sellers whip them. ”

Chen Ruoling stroked her hair that was blown by the wind, and asked in surprise: "Why do you want to smoke it?

"On the contrary, the more you draw, the higher the price you sell. ”

Chen Ruoling said: "What is the truth of this?"

Dugu said: "A slave, if he can be whipped ten times without crying out in pain, can be sold for a high price." If you can get twenty lashes without crying out in pain, then the price can be doubled. ”

Yang Fei said: "I understand, a slave is a working ox, the more whips he can receive, the stronger the body of the slave, the buyer can pay a high price, is this the truth?"

Dugu grabbed a leg of mutton and gnawed on it, biting a large piece of meat in one bite, and grinning, "Yes." ”

Chen Ruoling asked curiously: "Then the slave can cry out in pain when he is whipped for the first time, so that he will not be sold." ”

Dugu smiled and shook his head.

Chen Ruoling said: "Isn't it?"

Dugu swallowed a large piece of mutton in his mouth, wiped the oil from the corner of his mouth, and said with a smile: "Yes, if the slave cries out in pain when he is whipped at the first whip, then no one will buy him, and he will not have to be sent to the black ship of the slave trade." ”

Yang Fei said: "I'm afraid it's not that simple, right? If this method is feasible, then none of the slaves can be sold." ”

Dugu gave a thumbs up and said respectfully: "The Earth King is amazing!"

Chen Ruoling asked, "Why? What will the slave owners do with these slaves who cry out in pain at the first whip?"

"Slaves who were not sold that day would be imprisoned in the basement, which was cramped, damp, dark, with no food, no toilets, dirty and messy, flies, rats, cockroaches, especially large ones, and every underground reptile you can imagine. ”

Chen Ruoling put down the food in her hand, because she had already made up the dirty basement, the unventilated dark room filled with human and animal feces and urine, the suffocating picture, she could vomit when she thought about it.

Dugu said: "Slaves who can't be sold will be locked up in such a place, and then pulled out and sold the next day, and if they can't be sold, they will still be locked up at night until they starve to death, and the slave owner will not waste a grain on the slaves, and the slaves who starve to death will be thrown into the sea to feed the fish." I've seen such a basement, and I used to go in it when I was a kid. ”

Chen Ruoling got up, walked to the side, clasped her hands, closed her eyes, and felt the coolness of the wind.

Yang Fei walked over and said with a smile: "Uncomfortable?"

"Well, it's been over, but it's uncomfortable to hear that humans can treat their own kind so cruelly. Chen Ruoling said, "My heart is not so strong, it makes you smile." ”

This shows that you are kind and righteous. Yang Fei said, "Although slavery is far away from us, the people in the war are not even as good as slaves. ”

Chen Ruoling said: "However, there is at least hope in war, even if it is the resistance of the weak, it is also fighting for fate and tomorrow, even if he dies in battle, his soul is free." ”

Yang Fei said: "It makes sense, you are really a thoughtful person. ”

Chen Ruoling said: "Our family has long had a business in Africa, but I rarely come here, because I don't want to see the pain here. ”

Yang Fei: "......"

Suddenly, there was a loud "boom!" sound.

It's like a thunderbolt in your ear!

Yang Fei turned his head and saw billowing smoke not far away, dust flying, and gunpowder smoke filled.

"Someone fired!" Dugu shouted with a wave of his hands, "Hide!"

A dark shadow in the sky obscured the waning moon, whistling in this direction.

Yang Fei hugged Chen Ruoling, bent down, and threw herself to the side.

He held her tightly in his arms and shielded her with his own body.

The two of them held their heads in their hands, their bodies tense with fear and nervousness.

The cannonballs burst through the air and burrowed into the ground next to them, exploding with a bang.

The huge dust was blown up into the sky by a strong bomb shock wave, scattered in all directions, and fell on Yang Fei's head and body.

Yang Fei felt a violent tinnitus in his ears, and he temporarily lost his hearing and couldn't hear any sound.

Du Gu leaped over, pulled Yang Fei up, and said a lot of words.

But Yang Fei couldn't hear anything, he looked blankly, picked up Chen Ruoling, and ran in the direction of Du Gu's finger.

Yang Fei hugged Chen Ruoling and hid behind a building with Du Gu.

He reached out and plucked his ear, and after itching for a while, he gradually heard the outside world.

The sound of tank shells and AK strafing rang out, and Dugu's men began to fight back.

Du Gu asked Yang Fei to stay here and not move, his agile body rushed forward, and a few bullets were next to him, hitting the ground behind him.

Yang Fei was terrified!

Although he had long been ready for battle, when the real war came, Yang Fei still did not expect it.

No matter how many war episodes I have watched from film and television dramas, it is not as profound as experiencing a cannonball in person!

Yang Fei sat down next to the wall and put Chen Ruoling beside him.

Chen Ruoling held his hand tightly and asked, "What's the matter?" armed army or government army?"

Yang Fei shook his head blankly, his ears still had a strange sound!

He stretched out his hands, put his palms against his ears, pressed hard for a while, then let go, and said, "Ruoling, are you okay?"

"I'm fine, you, you have blood on your shoulder!" Chen Ruoling stretched out her hand, touched his shoulder, and said urgently, "You are injured!"

Yang Fei said: "It's okay, it is estimated that the blown stone was hit." ”

Chen Ruoling squeezed his hand: "Fool!"

Yang Fei said: "What are you talking about? I can't hear it!"

"I said you were stupid!" Chen Ruoling shouted, "It's so dangerous, why are you protecting me?"

Yang Fei scratched his head, pointed to his ears, and just smirked.

Chen Ruoling bit her lip lightly, hugged him, and bit his lip regardless of it.

Yang Fei shouted: "Don't move! I'll go out and see how the battle is going!"

As soon as he poked out half of his body from the wall, a few bullets that did not have long eyes whizzed and struck the ground at his feet, so frightened that he quickly retreated.

Yang Fei regretted it a little, a billion dollars is precious, and the price of free life is even higher!
