Chapter 215: Extinguishing the Mouth
The village chief looked at the rough stones that had been mined around him, clapped his hands, and motioned for everyone to come closer.
"Guys, that's all for today's rough stone, let's ship the rough out now. The village chief reminded, "Come, our people from Chenjiawan will transport the stones out first, Lao Wang, your people will be in the back, see where you still need to clean up." When all of our people are gone, you will come out again, so that you will know if we have anything left. ”
"That's as it should be, village chief. Lao Wang also spoke to the people he brought, "Today's quarrying is over, everyone will continue tomorrow." ”
As everyone knows, when the village chief heard this, a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes.
Tomorrow continues? These people, there is no tomorrow.
The people of the village understood that everyone silently followed behind the existence and walked in front.
When we went to the cave first, no one noticed that there were more than a dozen people from the village, who did not go in together, but went to other places.
Some of the quarried rough stones were transported in front, and almost all the rest were transported out by the villagers.
And those people brought by Lao Wang, there are not many people who transport the rough stones.
All of them were still grateful, thinking that the village chief was too considerate.
The village chief's men were all in front, and they came out of the cave, neatly laid down the rough stones they had transported, and turned to look at the mouth of the cave.
The villagers who had disappeared earlier also appeared, and one of them pushed a large cart with a huge wooden barrel tied to it, and walked cautiously over it.
Along the way, as the cart rolled and swayed, there was some noise from the large wooden barrel, which seemed to be filled with liquid.
"Are you all ready?" said the village chief.
"Village chief, we are all ready, this method will come a little faster than the last time to bury those workers alive. ”
The village chief nodded, "Everyone is ready, let's do it!"
More than 80 villagers in Chenjia Village began to help fix the large wooden barrels.
Some people took out a lot of large scoops from the last villager's wooden bucket, scooped some water out of the wooden barrel in front of them, and poured it into the stone cave.
The cave is sloping, with a high entrance and a low inside.
As a result, the villagers' water poured down from the mouth of the stone cave and flowed down.
There was a constant sound of heavy objects falling to the ground below, and someone had fallen.
"Ah, what is this, it fell to me. ”
"Yes, but I smelled oil, it was like oil, and it was quite slippery. ”
Lao Wang's face changed, what did it mean to pour oil into the stone cave, and he gradually had a bad premonition in his heart.
"Village chief, what do you mean, can't you wait for us to go out before pouring oil?" Lao Wang roared tentatively.
The village chief's voice came from above, "Let's let you stay in it forever, so we will pour oil, and later, we will light the fire." ”
At this time, Lao Wang knew that the village chief was uneasy and kind.
"What do you want to do? Do you want to kill us? We have done nothing, and you want to burn us to death! Aren't you afraid of retribution if you do this?"
But more, he was still anxious, he had already seen it, didn't pouring oil just want to burn them alive?
The village chief snorted disdainfully, "This is not the first time we have killed our mouths, before you, there were many people who were buried alive by us, you see that we are not alive and well now." Okay, and you've worked hard to quarry for us during this time, and now, you can go on the road with peace of mind. ”
As he spoke, the people behind the village chief laughed, and they didn't have a little psychological burden, and they all smiled.
Lao Wang was so angry that his heart ached, and he also felt a wave of fear.
It seems that he is right, the village chief is going to kill them all.
"If you let us die, let us die clearly, what did we do wrong, why did you kill us?"
Lao Wang's people were all pale, and they couldn't believe what they had heard with their ears.
There could be someone so lawless that they burned alive more than a hundred workers below them.
The village chief was rarely kind and explained it to Lao Wang.
"It's very simple, more than ten years ago, there was a woman in our village, called Yumian Guanyin, and we all called him Guanyin Niangniang. Guanyin Niangniang knows martial arts and cultivates with the original stones of these jade. Don't underestimate these rough stones, after Guanyin Niangniang's cultivation, the jade that blooms from the jade is much better. Because of this, our village is so rich. Later, Guanyin Niangniang said that jade was not enough for her to cultivate, and she needed the last breath of a person before she swallowed her breath, and she also had to protect his whereabouts, so we thought of such a method. ”
"You guys are so mad!" Lao Wang's chest rose and fell violently in anger, "Your method is to bury those workers alive and give your so-called Guanyin Niangniang the last breath before taking a breath! No wonder your village is so rich, inviting so many workers to work as miners for you, and asking us to keep it secret from our families." What is the news of the fear of jade leaking out, it turns out that it is to solve your worries!"
What I couldn't figure out before, now I can figure it out!
Lao Wang also didn't expect that this person from Chenjiawan would be so bold.
"Hahaha, you're such a smart person, but that's it. Come on, light a fire for me!" the village chief laughed distortedly.
The two men walked beside him, holding torches, and now the oil from the barrel had been poured into the hole of the cave.
The two men looked at each other, saw the excitement in each other's eyes, and together they threw the torches into the cave.
The people in Chen Jiawan seemed to have expected the screams that would come from below, and they all looked excited.
At this time, the village chief also forgot Li Xiuyuan's words before, and their affairs couldn't be done tonight.
The torch fell into the stone cave and crackled when it encountered oil, and the fire was extremely fierce in an instant.
The people in the cave hurriedly retreated down, but everyone knew that even if the fire could not kill them, the temperature would be so high that it would roast them to death.
What's more, it was difficult to even breathe in the cave for a while.
Lao Wang's face was full of tears, and he knelt down in front of everyone, "I'm sorry, I don't know people clearly, and I hurt everyone, in the next life, I will make cattle and horses for everyone." ”
"I don't blame you, Lao Wang, no one knows that the people in Chenjiawan are so vicious, and we ourselves came to you because of the high salary. ”
Although he still felt fear in the face of death, none of the people brought by Lao Wang resented him.
Even if there is resentment, it is against the village chief.
After all, Lao Wang is good to them, and they also see it, and they fight for everything for them, which is really hateful.
"It's all my fault, it's all my fault. Lao Wang, a man, couldn't cry at this time.
"Amitabha!"
At this time, in the noisy stone cave, a Buddhist saying came to mind.
