Chapter 116: Sewers

Leaving the Military League Building for the second time, Xiao Qi did not contact Sun Yongqing again, but called Xiao Yun directly, telling her that he planned to take over the task of the Military League, and then asked Xiao Yun to make a plan for him, Qin Fatzi and Zhao Yi were over there, I believe there will be a result.

After the contact with Xiao Yun ended, Xiao Qi went directly to the place where Zhuo Wei was imprisoned, and the place where Zhuo Wei was held was on the outskirts of Qingtian City, a small town located on the edge of Qingtian City.

That town is called Wanghe Town, when the inheritance of human landing star No. 3, from Qingtian City all the way out along the Qingtian River, but due to the terrain, the farther away from the river, to this place, you can only see the Qingtian River in the distance, so it was named like this.

Wanghe Town enters the territory of Yunshen Kingdom in Star 3 to the east, while to the west is the territory of Dongxing Kingdom, and to the south is the territory of Yulin Kingdom.

It was zoned as an industrial zone at the beginning of the city's establishment, and its unique nature of the three major production giants once caused several major production giants to participate in the competition, and finally was seized by the Comet Company, and a comet industrial zone was established in this place.

Since then, it has become the backyard of the Comet Company, which has tightly controlled the town, and people can only rush through the border without knowing what the factories that have been rapidly erected along the sides of the highway are filled with pipes and workshops next to each other.

Today, it has become a forbidden area, and many bad rumors have quietly spread around Wanghe Town, so that some residents of Qingtian City who are still financially good have moved out, but the large number of immigrants who have poured into Qingtian City still fills the outskirts of Wanghe Town.

There is no other reason, just because the land price of this piece is absolutely low in the entire Zixing No. 3 star.

Qingtian City has a bus directly to Wanghe Town, but ordinary people can only sit in the front station of Wanghe Town, Shuanggang, and then want to go inside, you must have a pass from the comet company, of course, if it is Liang Hongyun and Wu Xia, you only need to report your name, and you can naturally go in.

Xiao Qi got off the bus at Shuanggang, it was already past noon, and most of the residents of the Shuanggang generation were working at the moment, making it difficult to see even a single figure in the passionate Shuanggang, which has always had a lively and dangerous reputation.

The unique smell of rotting food and the mixing of human and animal excrement permeates everywhere makes people unconsciously feel resistant.

Standing in Donggang, where the bus stop sign is located, looking at Wanghe Town, what you can see is all simple houses enclosed with broken iron sheets, densely packed from the foot to the distance.

Around Wanghe Town, you can see a clear green separation belt, and under the reflection of this large area of various iron houses, I only feel that the green is very eye-catching.

Further inside, you can see horizontal and vertical roads and neat and silent factories painted with the logo of the orange comet company.

Here, the contrast between cleanliness and dirtiness, neatness and chaos, order and disorder is vividly displayed in front of people's eyes, which makes people involuntarily provoke deep thinking at first sight.

Xiao Qi followed the main road in the center of Shuanggang Town, which is also the main road from Qingtian City to the territory of Yulin, Yunshen, and Dongxing in Zixing No. 3 Star Territory, and walked slowly towards Wanghe Town. He found that the protection of this main road by Optimus City, or Comet Company, was still very strong.

There were deep trenches dug along both sides of the road, and Xiao Qi saw that there was dark green water flowing inside, and there were some foam-like suspended solids above the water, and behind the trenches was the range of the tin houses, and the construction of these tin houses was no longer a little rule to follow, and they were close to each other.

As if they want to get together for heating, some tin houses even directly use the tin sheets of the people next door as walls, and they are pasted together without any barriers, Xiao Qi noticed that some tin houses are still equipped with window air conditioners that have long been eliminated.

Looking at the rusty appearance, Xiao Qi was very skeptical that these air conditioners could still be used.

"Hiss ......"

Xiao Qi suddenly heard an obviously human voice sounding in the maze of the tin house on one side, and the target of the "hiss" was very much like himself, he followed the sound, and saw a child who looked only seven or eight years old sticking to the side of a tin house by the road, waving mysteriously at himself.

"Is there something wrong?" Xiao Qi walked over, the boy seemed a little nervous, but he still insisted on standing there and did not leave. He beckoned to Xiao Qi, led Xiao Qi into the maze of the tin house, and walked around for a long time, until he was far away from the road, and then he stood still.

The child's clothes are very simple, obviously changed from the adult's overalls, which looks too wide, and the child's petite and immature appearance is more and more obvious.

"There's a ghost over there, and you can't go there anymore unless you're in a car. The child whispered to Xiao Qi. "The ghost is very fierce, Tang Qing ran over last month and was caught by the ghost at night. ”

"How old is Tang Qing?" Xiao Qi's heart moved slightly, and he asked curiously.

"He is a year older than me, and he will be able to go to work this month next year, but he was captured by a ghost and never wants to go to work again. The child said.

"You can go to work a year older than you, how old are you this year?" Xiao Qi was a little curious.

"I'm 13 years old. The child straightened his chest.

"Where are you going to work?" Xiao Qi's heart sank slightly, 15 years old, according to the laws of the inheritance galaxy, it also belongs to the category of child labor.

"...... over there," the child gestured in the direction of Wanghe Town, "I can earn 5 yuan a month, and after three years of work, I can get 8 yuan." ”

"Since there are ghosts on the road, do you still know the road without ghosts?" Xiao Qi's heart moved, and he took out a 10 yuan from his pocket and handed it to the child. "I'm in a hurry to get there. ”

The child looked at the 10 yuan bill, obviously a little moved, he hesitated for a moment and looked at Xiao Qi.

"It's a bit far, I'll go home first, and then I'll take you there, okay?"

Xiao Qi nodded, the child happily took the banknote, turned around and walked towards the maze, Xiao Qi followed closely behind, the maze could not be called a road at all, but a narrow slit.

Some narrow slits do not change their bodies, they are too narrow, but the children are small, and they are interspersed in the narrow slits, which seems to be easy.

Not long after leaving, the child suddenly got into a tin house, Xiao Qi thought he was home, but from the tin room came the sound of him bargaining with the shopkeeper, only to understand that this was a shop.

Xiao Qi looked left and right, this shop is no different from the surrounding tin houses, but I am afraid that I will have to come and go a lot to remember.

The two bargained inside for a long time, and then saw the child walking out of it with a plastic bag on his back. Xiao Qi wanted to step forward to hold it for him, but the child vigilantly avoided it, and walked in front of him, Xiao Qi silently followed behind.

After walking a short distance, the child suddenly stopped in front of a tin room with a plastic bag on his back.

"You wait here for a while, my mother hasn't eaten since yesterday, I'll make something for her first. The child said to Xiao Qi.

"You can eat it and then leave, I'm not in a hurry. Xiao Qi said.

"No, when people get off work, that road is not easy to walk. The child shook his head solemnly.

Xiao Qi didn't know how many rules there were in Wanghe Town, seeing that the child looked confident, he didn't say much at the moment, and when the child was busy and jumped out of the door, he heard a weak woman's call in the tin room.

"Ah Rong, don't run around, be careful that the ghost catches you. ”

"Got it, mother, I don't run around. Ah Rong answered, beckoned to Xiao Qi, and began to drill down the tin house again.

After walking around for about ten minutes surrounded by the tin house, Xiao Qi and Ah Rong finally began to approach the green separation zone, and Xiao Qi realized that it was a circle of dwarf and dense shrubs, with green branches and leaves, and spikes on them.

"Don't go near that, the thorns on it will shoot out and prick people, and if you prick them, they will swell into a big bag, but it hurts. Ah Rong reminded Xiao Qi, Xiao Qi nodded, he was no stranger to this kind of biotechnology product.

After walking for another while, Ah Rong led him to the mouth of a sewage pipe exposed to the ground on the side of the road, in which dark green sewage slowly flowed out and flowed along a trench from west to east into the ditches on both sides of the main road.

Ah Rong didn't hesitate to drill in, Xiao Qi hesitated, seeing that the sewage outlet was more than half a person high, it was estimated that there should be no problem for him to drill in and out, so he followed in.

It was unusually dark in the pipes, but Ah Rong seemed to be used to it, and he saw him rummaging in the sedimented sludge from time to time, and sometimes he would happily put something in his pocket. He glanced at Xiao Qi, but didn't explain it to him.

Xiao Qi also understands the psychology of this scavenging boy, this should be the place where this child picks up garbage secretly, there are not many things, once there is a competitor, this child's harvest will be greatly reduced.

Seeing Xiao Qi following, Ah Rong didn't delay any longer, drilled all the way forward, the further he went, the more the pipe gradually narrowed, and finally, Xiao Qi himself had to lie on the ground, crawling forward with his hands and feet, and couldn't help worrying about what to do if he got stuck.

Fortunately, after climbing through a very narrow pipeline, an independent space actually appeared, Xiao Qi and they climbed out of the pipe, entered the space, and found that there was a lot of sewage accumulated here, which was almost flush with the mouth of the pipe, and it was almost submerged to Xiao Qi's thighs, and it didn't reach Ah Rong's chest.

"It's too deep to touch. There was a hint of regret in Ah Rong's voice, and the two of them waded through the sewage, and when they reached the opposite side, they climbed up a ladder again, and then drilled into a sewage pipe again.

After walking for a while, the pipeline began to fork, Ah Rong seemed to be extremely familiar with the environment here, he chose one fork in the road without thinking and drilled in, and Xiao Qi concentrated on remembering.

Soon they were in a room with a lot of sewage, with a pipe on the roof, and every now and then a burst of sewage poured down, and here they could hear the rumbling of machinery.

Ah Rong led Xiao Qi to the side of the room, where there were man-made steps, they walked up the steps not far and there was an iron door, Ah Rong opened the iron door familiarly, and the two of them got out, outside was a workshop with a roaring machine, but there was no one.

Many thick pipes crisscross the workshop, and the sound of various pumps is deafening.

"Come this way!" Ah Rong beckoned to Xiao Qi, who was looking around, and ran to an extremely wide pipe in the corner of the workshop.

A small door opened where the pipe was close to the ground, and Ah Rong got in, turned around and beckoned to Xiao Qi. "Hurry up, people come here often, and it's troublesome to be seen. ”

"Here, there's a ladder, slow down. ”

Ah Rong was below, Xiao Qi was above, and the two of them climbed down the escalator of the pipe wall little by little, and after climbing for a while, they only heard Ah Rong shouting softly, "Jump!" and then heard a soft sound of "poof", obviously Ah Rong had fallen on top of a pile of soft objects below.

Xiao Qi climbed down a few more steps, gently let go and fell, he landed on a high thick cushion, and looked around, there was actually a pile of corpses of the boss, and the piles were full of the corpses of a smooth person.

Sitting under his ass was also a breathless human body, and he jumped up in fright, and looked around, although the place he was in was dark and dark, he could still feel the whiteness and stiffness of these corpses.

There was no smell of blood or decay, indicating that the corpses had been carefully processed and were very fresh. Ah Rong looked down in the pile of corpses, and he didn't know what he was looking for.

Watching a child calmly pulling those heads and hands and feet in the mountain of corpses, Xiao Qi's heart suddenly rose a sense of absurdity, he approached Ah Rong, only to see that he was nervously collecting the teeth and nails of these corpses.

Some of the corpses seemed to be rotting, and the teeth and nails fell off with a slight twist, but most of the corpses still had strong teeth and nails, and Ah Rong pushed these away, and his movements were swift and flexible.

"Going out from here, it's a place where our double post people go to work, it's safe, you hurry up and get busy with yours, you must come back before getting off work, we have to go out with the people who get off work." Ah Rong said to Xiao Qi while busy.

"Can't you go back the way you came?" Xiao Qi was a little surprised.

"That road won't go through after work, you hurry, there's not much time left. Ah Rong urged.

Xiao Qi nodded, walked out from the side door, as soon as he stepped out of the door, he was shocked by what he saw in front of him, and when he went out, it turned out to be a large factory, and there were countless workbenches lined up in it, and it seemed that there were people busy in front of each workbench.

These people were dressed in overalls, fiddling with the dead people on the workbench, ignoring Xiao Qi's arrival. Xiao Qi found that a large number of children like Ah Rong were picking the teeth and nails of the dead, and the older ones were shaving the hair on the dead people.

Further inside, some adults are carrying out the corpse, they use tools to remove fat, flesh, and fascia from the corpse, and use plastic baskets to sort them out, at first glance, it is no different from a meat processing factory.

It's just that the white bones piled up on the side of the workbench, especially the skulls that symbolize human beings, roll around on the ground from time to time, making people shudder and feel like they are in hell.
