Chapter 5 It is not allowed
"Why are those leaders so good?" Liu An asked curiously.
"For freedom." The other party did not hide it, and directly stated the reason.
"For freedom?" Liu An was a little puzzled.
What is the matter of freedom? Could it be that if you do a lot of work, the stone quarry will release people? It shouldn't be that good, right?
The quarry is full of slaves, all bought, and it costs money, and it is impossible to say that if you do a good job, you will let the people go, which makes no sense at all.
"What the hell is going on? If you work quickly, you can be free, and I'm afraid that no one in the entire stone field will be lazy, and it is impossible. Liu An said.
Since you can't figure it out, ask the other party directly.
"It's so easy, I work hard to get some exercise, so I can participate in the annual martial arts audition in the quarry! For the old men of the stone field to watch, it is a life-and-death fight, and it is said that the final winner can be freed. The other party explained.
So that's the case, Liu An understood, but a new problem arose.
"There are so many leaders in the stone field, and some of them are not good at all, why do they still participate? Isn't it looking for death? Liu An asked.
"I don't know." The other shook his head.
"When will the selection start?" Liu An asked.
"Every year, there is another month." The other party replied.
There was no problem, Liu An let the other party go, returned to his bed, lay down, and counted what the other party said.
If you win the battle and you can really get free, it doesn't hurt to go and participate, and it's a bit hopeful.
Just when Liu An was thinking about participating in martial arts.
Suddenly outside the cage! There was a sound of metal crashing.
This was the signal for the stone field to gather the slaves, and everyone did not dare to slack off, so they quickly got up and walked to the door of the cage and stood up.
The door of the cage is different from the normal door in that it does not open back and forth, but opens up and down. The master in the quarry controls the unified switch.
The cells slowly rose and assembled in a small square outside the cage, where several fires had been lit at the moment, and one man was tied up and fell up, with many wounds on his body.
"Alas! Another escaped and was caught. ”
"I can't stop tonight."
……
The crowd was talking, and the steps on their feet were not slow, and they quickly stood up in the square, waiting for the chief to speak.
At this time, almost all the principals came, more than twenty, each with a whip in his hand, and his face was not very good.
"Smack! Syllable! Smack......"
The whip rang out one after another, whipping the fleeing guy.
That guy didn't make a sound, how hard did he have to fight? People don't feel it anymore.
"You bastards! Do you feel uncomfortable not letting you continue to work at night? Run away! The leader said to a group of slaves.
The slaves don't dare to squeak, and whoever speaks at this time is unlucky! It's easy to get injured by mistake.
"Speak! Why are they dumb one by one? Isn't it possible to escape? Exercise! You bastards, we don't have a night's rest, okay! Since you don't let us have a good time, we won't make you comfortable! From now on, do three more hours at night! The leader said angrily.
After a few words, the slaves were taken to the quarry, and although they complained in their hearts, no one dared to show it.
Work honestly.
The night was the time of rest, and everyone's enthusiasm for work was not very high, even the slave leaders did not work hard at night, and it looked like they were messing with time.
The master didn't care, I don't know if it was because he couldn't see clearly at night, or what, the master chatted separately, and as long as the slaves didn't lie down and sleep, they didn't bother to do it.
At night, Liu An felt as if he was being stared at, and he felt very bad, and when he looked around, there was nothing unusual.
Suddenly, Liu An felt unstable for a moment and fell directly to the ground.
Just got kicked!
But there's no one around, what's going on?
"Boy, I heard that there are many people who want to take you, but you don't know how to lift you?" A questioning voice came.
I couldn't see it very clearly at night, Liu An only saw two rows of teeth moving there, and thought it was a ghost or something, but when I looked closely, it turned out to be a very dark-looking man.
The person who came was a stiff man!
During the day, Liu An dragged the second child and humiliated him fiercely, thinking that he would have the opportunity to clean up Liu An, but he didn't expect a God-given opportunity, working tonight, this is the opportunity.
The fire in the quarry lit only a few important entrances and exits to prevent slaves from escaping, and the rest of the place was dimly lit.
This is undoubtedly to provide natural protection for black people like Stiff Man, who look black and are difficult to see clearly at night.
Otherwise, Liu An wouldn't have been kicked and didn't know, it turned out that it was a stiff man who sneaked up.
"What do you want to do?" Liu An asked.
After learning that there were more than 80 people under the stiff man tonight, Liu An didn't want to have a head-on conflict with this pervert.
"What do you want? Hehe, you kid said it lightly, humiliating your grandfather during the day, what do you think? Give you two ways, one is to serve your grandfather well, and your grandfather will not treat you badly. The second is that grandpa crippled you. The stiff man said.
The so-called waiting, Liu An doesn't have to think about it, he knows what this pervert is referring to, can he agree? Of course not! A real man, how to meet people after doing that!
What makes people scruple is the other party's No. 80 person, if there is no such No. 80 person, Liu An will not take the stiff man in his eyes at all.
Thinking about how to deal with it, suddenly! In a flash of inspiration, Liu An seemed to have caught something and smiled.
"Paralyzed, are you still laughing? Say! Serve grandpa, or let grandpa cripple you! ”
"Haha......" Liu An smiled.
"You are really bold enough, you actually want the master to serve you? All right! If you have the guts, try it, and see if the master doesn't bite off your thing! Liu An said ruthlessly.
I can't see each other's expressions clearly at night, so I guess I've been scared, right? After a long time, the stiff man finally spoke.
"Boy, you're ruthless! But grandpa will break all your teeth! ”
has a strategy, has its own countermeasures, the stiff man's words were completely unexpected by Liu An, and all his teeth were broken, which was really ruthless! It seems that this guy has not done such a lack of moral things before, otherwise his brain would not have turned so fast.
The strong pressure forced Liu An to keep thinking about how to deal with it in his mind, he was not stupid, coupled with external pressure, Liu An understood that if he couldn't pass the level of stiff man, he would end up miserable in the stone field in the future!
This is not allowed!
I kept thinking about it, what can I do to make the other party have some scruples? Alone, you will definitely not be able to kill dozens of stiff men.
Suddenly, Liu An thought that this guy, like other slave leaders, worked hard during the day, and presumably wanted to participate in the fighter selection in a month.
To make everyone's slave leader aspire, gladiator is definitely not just about the victor being freed, there should be something else.
As for what the others are, Liu An doesn't know, but he doesn't need to know, just know that they really want to participate.
"Master knows, you want to participate in the selection in a month, you have a lot of people, so what? Although the master can't beat you, but chasing you to fight, I still ask myself if I can do it, it's a big deal to fight with you! If you don't believe me, give it a try! Liu An said ruthlessly.
As soon as these words came out, the stiff man was silent for a longer time than before.
Liu An was a little apprehensive, God knows if anyone had intimidated him like this before, in case it didn't work, he couldn't think of any other ideas.
