Chapter 393: Punishment
Step, step, step!
Dozens of figures soon stood in front of Chu Feng and the other miners. Among them, the old man with the most powerful breath sat on the only Taishi chair in the field.
On the left and right of the old man, six monks with slightly weaker breath spread out like goose wings. The rest of the figures stood respectfully behind the seven old men.
Obviously, the old man is the one who is really in charge of the Three Emperors Ore Vein! And those six people with slightly weaker breath should be the people sent by Peacock Ridge, Qilin Cliff, and Tianyao Mountain to 'assist' the old man in charge of the Three Emperor Ore Veins. As for the rest, it should be the old man's own subordinates.
Chu Feng was guessing, the old man raised his head and glanced indifferently at many mining slaves, and then said in a deep voice, "Have you all arrived?"
"Lord Qiqi, it's all together!" someone behind the old man immediately replied.
The old man bowed his head, "Okay, let's get started, Xishuo, this time you are still in charge of counting and collecting the source stones." Sun Wei, you are responsible for punishing the miners who fail to complete their tasks!"
"Yes!" two figures walked out from behind the old man, one of them waved his sleeve, and a solid wooden table suddenly appeared in the open space in front of him, while the other smirked and glanced at the many miners, and with a weak palm, a special whip was held in his hand.
Syllable!
Sun Wei's wrist, who was holding the whip, shook slightly, and the torture whip shook out several whips in the void, making a crisp sound.
Hearing this familiar and terrifying voice, many miners subconsciously trembled a few times. Obviously, I have seen the power of the whip.
Seeing this, Sun Wei showed a smug look on his face, but he said with a hypocrisy, "Everyone, the week is coming to an end again, and the time has come to test you! Although if you fail to complete the task, you will inevitably be punished, but don't forget, your lord also promised that once someone or a mining area overfulfills the quota, he will get a lot of rewards!"
"Even, if the quota reaches a certain limit, the adults can exempt you from the status of mine slaves! So, everyone, come on! As long as you work hard, the adults will not treat you badly!"
"Next, starting from the No. 1 mining area, pay the source stones in turn!"
After the words fell, Sun Wei took a few steps back, making Xishuo, who was in charge of collecting the source stone, more prominent. Xishuo had a straight face, didn't say a word, and quietly waited for the miners in the No. 1 mining area to come and pay.
Soon, the head of the miner in Mining Area No. 1 was the first to walk to the table and put the uniformly equipped storage bags on the table. Xi Shuo reached out with one hand, poured the ore storage bag down, and suddenly the source stones that exuded a charming luster fell on the solid wood table.
"Fifteen!" Xishuo swept his eyes coldly and reported the data, "Five over-quotes!"
The voice fell, except for the rest of the miners in the No. 1 mining area that they had known for a long time, most of the remaining miners gave envious and jealous eyes to the head of the miners in the No. 1 mining area who stepped forward to pay. As is customary, this guy will be rewarded heavily.
Sure enough, the old man sitting at the top glanced at the man appreciatively, and spit out two words in his mouth, "Heavy reward!"
"Yes!"
Xi Shuo agreed, and the storage ring on his finger burst out with a wisp of luster again, and suddenly a wooden box about one meter long and two feet wide gently fell on the other side of the solid wood table.
An extremely rich aroma suddenly escaped along the air, and many mining slaves subconsciously took a deep breath, and some even couldn't help but swallow their saliva, "Damn, it's so fragrant!
Similarly, the head of the mine slave in the No. 1 mining area who was rewarded was also looking forward to it, but the miner in the No. 1 mining area obviously knew what to do at this time, "Thank you for your generous gift, the little one will definitely work harder in the future, and he will die with all his might!"
"Yes, he's a man who understands, step aside!"
"Obey!" The head of the miners in the No. 1 mining area took the wooden box and retreated to the miners in the No. 1 mining area.
And at this time, it is natural to open the wooden box!
Smack!
The lid of the wooden box was flicked open, and everyone was presented with a whole jade fragrant pig roasted to a golden brown and crispy crisp!
For a moment, the eyes of most of the miners were a little unmoving, and their eyes were full of longing and greed.
But with the old man and others here, which of these miners dared to make a mistake? He could only forcibly suppress the impulse in his heart.
Chu Feng shook his head slightly, and a touch of sadness passed through his heart. Monks, how high and lofty are they in ordinary times? Especially in the eyes of ordinary people, they are tantamount to the existence of immortals! But now, for some ordinary food, they show such an unbearable appearance, what a ......
Li Tou'er seemed to see Chu Feng's thoughts, and said in a low voice, "What? It doesn't feel worthwhile? Brother Xiao Chu, you haven't been here for a long time, and you haven't really reached the limit of that kind of torment and pain! If you really stay here for a long time, it won't be difficult for you to understand their thoughts? Do you know? Under normal circumstances, 99 percent of the mine slaves may not be able to eat a piece of meat in a year!"
"Even, because some people are fed up and hungry, at extreme times, they actually attack their companions, trying to use their companions' flesh and blood to improve their food. But this happened only once and was strictly forbidden!"
"Really, that shows that those guys are somewhat human!"
"Human nature, hehe, Brother Xiao Chu, are you afraid that you are thinking too much? They just don't want to lose free labor in vain, after all, mining source stone mines is not something that everyone can do!"
"That's true! Then Brother Li, won't you unite and put forward conditions to them? You know, the value of one source stone is enough to make all mine slaves eat meat every day! After all, in the outside world, how much is some meat worth?"
"Alas, I tried to mention it, but the people who did mention it were made into meat soup and fed alive to wild dogs in front of the rest of the mine slaves!"
"This ......" A cold light immediately flashed in Chu Feng's eyes. As soon as Li Tou'er noticed it, he gently tugged at the corner of Chu Feng's clothes. Chu Feng was stunned and hurriedly suppressed his emotions.
During the conversation, all the miners in the No. 1 mining area stepped forward one by one to pay the source stones. Not surprisingly, everyone in the No. 1 mine has completed their task quota.
It was followed by the No. 2 mining area, and the head of the miner in the No. 2 mining area also went beyond it, handed over thirteen source stones, and was rewarded with a roast goose. Although it is not as good as the whole pig at the head of the mine slave in the No. 1 mining area, it is not bad.
The leader of the miners in the next No. 3 mining area had two more source stones, got a plate of fresh fruits, and the miners under his command also completed the task.
It's not the same when it comes to the No. 5 mine!
The head of the miner in the No. 5 mining area did not pay more source stones, and there were two people under his command who failed to complete the task, one less and one less two.
This made Chu Feng see for the first time how powerful the whipping of the Three Emperor Mines was.
That special torture whip was whipped on the body of the mine slave who had been a monk above the Nian Transformation, and the skin and flesh were open in just one moment, and the flesh and blood were blurred!
After a torture whip, the miner who lacked a source stone had already swung his legs, and the missing two were even more pale, and large drops of sweat mixed with blood were dripping from his body.
"It's too much! Don't you really treat people as human beings?" Chu Feng said to himself, but he didn't come out either. First, Chu Feng basically has nothing to do with these people. Second, Chu Feng knew very well that with his ability at this time, if he really jumped out, there would be no other result except for looking for death!
After all, the sevenfold old man of the Emperor Extreme Realm, and the other six Emperor Extreme Sixfold demon cultivators were just sitting and standing, which brought Chu Feng a lot of pressure.
When they arrived at the No. 6 mining area, five or six people received the whipping, and one of them was directly whipped to death because of the lack of three source stones, and was woken up with ice water to continue to receive the whip!
When he arrived at the No. 7 mining area where Chu Feng was located, the miner in the No. 6 mining area glanced at Li Tou'er with a smile, "The surname is Li, it's your turn! Presumably, you are even worse than us! I can't even say if someone will be pumped to death!"
"Hmph, don't bother!" Li Tou'er spat out a sentence, and without paying much attention to it, he stepped forward.
But Li Tou'er only paid eight source stones, which made Chu Feng couldn't help but be stunned. You must know that Chu Feng knows very well that under his guidance, Li Tou'er has a harvest equivalent to twenty-two normal source stones this week!
If only eight are taken out, won't the remaining fourteen be given to the rest?
Sure enough, seeing that Li Tou'er's ore storage bag only poured out eight source stones, at the location of the No. 7 mining area where Chu Feng was located, there were seven or eight miners' complexions, revealing a kind of surprise, uneasiness, nervousness and chagrin!
Obviously, these people were the mine slaves who received Li Tou'er's gift. But they all remember very well that when Li Tou'er gave them the source stone, he clearly said that he had left enough share!
But now......
Not mentioning the thoughts of Chu Feng and these people, opposite Li Tou'er, Xi Shuo's face became even colder, and Sun Wei, who was in charge of the torture whip, sneered directly, "The surname is Li, aren't you fooling us, right? You are also the head of the No. 7 mining area, you step on eight by yourself, isn't it this week, you are lazy with the people below you?"
"The little one doesn't dare, the little brother has tried his best! But mining the source stone also requires luck!"
"Bastard, isn't Sun clear about this? I still want you to teach it? Don't talk nonsense, since you don't have enough share, then take the whip! And, since you are the leader, your punishment will be doubled!"
"Double, this is a bit unruly, isn't it?" Li Tou'er's face turned gloomy, and there was a nervousness in his eyes that could not be concealed. You must know that the reason why he only left eight source stones for himself, Li Tou'er also estimated, and it was expected that he could endure it smoothly, but once the punishment was doubled, then even if he didn't die, he would have to suffer a lot!
But at this time, it was obviously impossible to claim the source stone from the rest of the people, and even if he could claim it back, Li Tou'er would not be able to do that kind of thing. So Li Touer can only fight on the basis of reason!
But what's the use of arguing?
can only anger Sun Wei even more, as for the high-ranking old man and others, they will not ask in person, at most they just watch how Sun Wei deals with it coldly.
In front of so many people, where could Sun Wei back down, and when he heard this, his tone immediately became more severe, "Bold! If you can't complete the task, you dare to bargain? The punishment will be increased by ten more lashes!"
"What?, ten whips?" Li Tou'er's heart suddenly sank to the bottom. And the faces of most of the miners in the No. 7 mining area also showed resentment!
