There is a person named Han San in Shayu Village who is out to make a living all the year round, this person, 360 out of 365 days are outside, and the only five days are still home for the New Year, so Han San is a well-informed person in the eyes of the villagers, as for what Han San is doing outside, the villagers are not interested in inquiring, even Han San's wife doesn't know one or two, and the daughter-in-law only knows that the silver can be taken home during the New Year. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Suddenly, one day, Han San returned to Shayu Village with a decent and oily face, his sudden return attracted the onlookers of the villagers, everyone stared at Han San with envious eyes, the young man stroked Han San's straight clothes with his hand, and the older ones surrounded Han San to ask questions, Han San also cooperated, always smiling, and answering all questions.

Just as the villagers were gathering more and more, suddenly, Han San's voice raised an octave and announced a good news that surprised those present.

Han San said that the coal kiln 50 kilometers away from Shayu Village is now recruiting, the condition is to eat, live and pay wages, because it is a fat poor, many people have squeezed their heads to go, but because the coal kiln recruitment quota is limited, he finally asked someone to get a few places, and he wants to leave the limited quota to the villagers of Shayu Village.

Han San also swore that this is a good opportunity to make money, and if anyone wants to go, he will sign up for him tomorrow at the latest, and he will take care of the face of the villagers and fight for a few more places for everyone.

Hearing Han San say that the coal kiln was recruiting, the older people turned their heads and left, and the remaining young people were still full of curiosity and eager to try, especially Dahu, who was very excited after listening to Han San's introduction.

He often heard his husband say that the outside world was rich and colorful, but he had never had the opportunity to go out of Shayu Village to experience the outside world, if Han San could help him realize his desire to go out of the mountains and go outside, it would be unwanted.

What's more, he still has cash for food and housing, Dahu thought, if it was really like what Han San said, he would go there for a few years, and the life at home would not be as tight as it is now, while he was still young, he should go out to wander, maybe after a few years of struggle, he could still return to his hometown, it was much better than staying in this isolated mountain.

Dahu was excited by his fantasies, and the more he thought about it, the more excited he became, and he hurriedly ran home to show his father that he was going to work in the coal mine that Han San said, but before he could finish speaking, his father, who had always been mild-tempered, was so angry that he roared at him:

"What do you say? Want to work in a coal kiln? I'm telling you, it's not negotiable, unless I'm dead, O Great Tiger! You are only 12 years old, do you know how dangerous it is to work in a coal kiln? The year before last, the three boys of the Li family in our village, went to work in the mine without telling his parents, and he has not come back until now, his parents are anxious, as if they have lost their souls all day long, their mothers cry when they meet people, and their eyes are blind from crying, do you still want to take the road of his son, and you want your mother and me to die? ! ”

"Oops! Dad, the third son of the Li family, he is going with an unknown person who doesn't know his surname, but what I want to follow is Han San, who knows the roots of our village, what danger will there be, as you said, the mine is opened! ”

"Big Tiger, usually you are an obedient child, what's wrong today, why can't you listen to what I say? In a word, I won't agree to you going. ”

His father's attitude gave Dahu a blow to the head, and this was the first time his father lost his temper at him.

How else to say that he is young, his father's resolute opposition, instead of curbing the big tiger's desire to leave, accelerated the rebellious psychology of the big tiger to leave, and the 'little adult' who usually seems to be empathetic is completely blinded by Han San's rhetoric at this time.

Dahu didn't want to and didn't want to take the time to think about the real meaning behind his father's move to stop him from going to the coal kiln, and ******** thought about how to hide from his parents and smoothly follow Han San outside.

Dahu found Han San to report on his father's back, and at Han San's house, Dahu met his cousins who also came to sign up without telling his parents, Jin Changyuan and Jin Changshuo, Han San mysteriously told the three brothers that in order to prevent long nights and dreams, they had to leave before dawn tomorrow, and agreed to gather under the old locust tree at the entrance of the village.

After returning home, Dahu deliberately pretended that nothing had happened, and did not mention to his father about going to the coal kiln again, and his father Jin Guangzheng saw that Dahu did not mention going to the coal kiln again, thinking that he had figured it out and did not ask again, and after dinner, he went back to his house to sleep.

Dahu also returned to the house where she and Dalong slept, Dalong was tired of playing during the day, and went to bed early, Dahu couldn't sleep because he had something on his mind, he sat on the kang and looked at Dalong, thinking that he was going to the coal kiln tomorrow, when he would go home was still unknown, he couldn't help but feel a little reluctant in his heart, he felt that before leaving, he had some words, or to explain to Dalong, Dahu woke Dalong from his deep sleep, and said:

"Dalong, don't always be playful in the future, and help your parents do more work from tomorrow."

"With my brother here, where can I be needed?" Dalong rubbed his eyes and said.

"My brother is saying that if I am not at home, you will take care of my parents on behalf of my brother."

"Why is my brother not at home? Let's talk about dreams. Dalong asked puzzled,

"Brother will be for a while, I can't tell you clearly, you just do what I say!"

"yes, I see." After Dalong answered Dahu's words, he turned over and continued to sleep.

Dalong's unsensible behavior made Dahu hesitate for a short time in his heart, but this short-term hesitation was soon replaced by his strong desire to go, Dahu got up, packed up a few clothes that he usually changed, and lay down without undressing.

The next day, before dawn, the big tiger tiptoed out of the house with his clothes on his back, Changyuan and Changshuo came to the old locust tree at the entrance of the village in advance, not long after the three of them met, Han San also arrived, and he urged the three brothers to hurry up and follow him on the road.

Let's not show the hardships and ups and downs along the way, in Dahu's cognition, all the difficulties and obstacles in front of him can't withstand his desire for the outside world and his yearning for future life.

After two days and one night of difficult trekking, in the evening, they finally arrived at the coal kiln, Han San took the three big tiger brothers to the coal kiln shed, and threw down three sticks and noodles to eat and drink outside, at this time, the big tiger picked up the nest head thrown by Han San and wanted to eat, but his mouth was too lazy to open, he had no strength at all, and his eyelids also followed the lively fight, he put the nest head aside, and fell asleep.

I don't know when, the big tiger's arms were lifted from sleep by a pair of strong hands:

"What time is it, why don't you get up and go to work!" The big man shouted as he carried it.

"Who are you? Why are you dragging me? The big tiger who was dragged and hurt questioned the big man in front of him.

"People are not big, they are not small, dare to ask uncle, who am I? What about Han San? Han San! The big man shouted outside with no one in his eyes.

"Master Zhou, I'm here, are these cubs messing with you? I'll teach you a good lesson, and you'll be discouraged. Han Sanbian ran into the house and brought a stool for the man named Zhou Ye.

"I ask you, did you bring these three children?" The person named Zhou Ye asked Han San as soon as his ass sat firmly.

"Yes, Master Zhou, isn't our coal kiln short of manpower? I went back to my hometown this time, and by the way, I got you three laborers, who are a little younger, but you can rest assured, these three children are in good health, and they must be good at digging coal, and you are satisfied with the storage. Han San nodded and bowed to Zhou Ye.

"Since you brought it, you have to tell them the rules of the coal kiln, you have to work in the mine before dawn, and if you don't meet the quota, you won't have to eat, and if you let me catch it, whoever dares to cheat and play tricks will serve with a whip." This sentence seems to have come from the gritting of the back molars.

"Master Zhou, with me here, you can put a hundred hearts, and I will slowly train them." After Han San finished speaking, he turned around and walked to Da Hu's side, patted Da Hu's shoulder with his hand and introduced:

"You all listen to me, this Zhou Ye sitting on the stool is the master of our coal kiln, that is, our master, here, as long as you dig coal well and complete the quota, the master will not treat you badly, otherwise there will be no good fruit for you to eat, and the three of you will remember?" Han Sangou said with a strong face.

The words of the master and Sanhan made Dahu understand, this place is not like Han San's boastful treatment and limited quotas, it is simply rhetoric, tricking them into coming here as coolies, and he and his brother are in Han San's place. However, looking at the murderous Zhou Ye in front of him, and Han San, who was also unkind, Dahu knew that it was a little late to understand now.

"Han San, I'll save face for you today, if I catch it again in the future, who dares to sleep lazy, but it's not as cheap as today!" Zhou Ye stared at Han San with fierce eyes and said.

"Yes, yes, don't worry, there is no next time, there is no next time." Han San still kept nodding his head.

After Zhou Ye and Han San left, the three big tiger brothers began the drudgery of digging coal in the mine.

Although before going down the mine, Dahu had tumulted countless pictures of the underground in his mind, but when he really carried a faintly bright oil lamp in his hand, he walked in the dark, short, damp, almost crawling narrow tunnel, he really realized what black was.

The black of the well, different from the darkness of the night, it gives people an inexplicable fear, when you crawl the first step, you can't predict what awaits you in the second step, that is to say, once people go down the well, they will unconditionally give this life to God, the word 'resigned to fate', to describe the mentality of the people in the mine is the most appropriate, finally, the big tiger they touched the end of the coal kiln.

At this time, the old miners have begun to work skillfully, and when they figure out how to dig coal, the old absentees have already transported baskets of coal to the well, and the seemingly simple coal digging process may not be difficult for adults, but it is not so easy for a few eleven or twelve-year-olds, children who go down the mine for the first time.

The three big tiger brothers worked hard for a day, and they didn't complete the quota, so they naturally didn't have dinner according to the regulations.

The three hungry and cold big tiger brothers, curled up on the big bunk of the shed, desperate to the extreme, the youngest Changyuan, couldn't help crying, the miners who lived with him, seeing the three children so pitiful and sympathetic, they squeezed out some of each of their food, and the three children were half full.

In the process of chatting with the workers, Dahu learned that the kiln owner is named Zhou Dagui, who is notoriously ruthless, and the miners see him, just like a mouse sees a cat, and can walk around and around, and everyone calls him Zhou Papi behind his back.

Han San is a dog under Zhou Papi, he serves Zhou Papi harder than his ancestors, Zhou Papi also gave him a small foreman's errand, there is a little spare money on hand, there is no problem with eating and drinking, Zhou Papi's words are holy decrees for Han San, on the contrary, Han San scolds the miners lightly, and beats them heavily, just like his master is ruthless and unjust.

Here, Jin Guangzheng of Shayu Village, woke up early in the morning and disappeared the figure of the big tiger, shouted a few times in succession and did not see a response, an ominous premonition, shrouded Jin Guangzheng's mind, he dragged the big dragon out of the bed, and asked where the big tiger was, the big dragon intermittently recalled to his father what his brother said to him last night, Jin Guangzheng understood, the big tiger was self-assertive, and went to the coal kiln with Han San, he held a glimmer of hope, ran to Han San's house to ask what was going on, but Han San's daughter-in-law's words made Jin Guangzheng collapse:

"You don't know? Last night, Dahu and his three brothers agreed with our boss to go to the coal kiln to dig coal, and they left early this morning. ”

"Then do you know which coal kiln Han San took them to?"

"I don't know, our boss never told me where he was doing."

"It's a big trouble now, and I can't find it if I want to."

Just as Jin Guangzheng was rubbing his hands and stomping his feet in a hurry, Changyuan and Changshuo's families also rushed to Han San's house to inquire about the news.

"If you want me to say, let's go to the nearby coal kiln first, maybe Han San won't take them too far." Kim Chang-won's father proposed.

"Let's hope so, now we'll have to find it right now." There was despair in Kim's tone.

The father of the three children prepared the dry food to eat on the road on the same day, they from near to far, one by one coal kiln to inquire, there was no news of the child, the three days passed quickly, the size of the coal kiln also went dozens of them, the dry food brought when they came out was gone, the three fathers were in a hurry, mental and physical overdraft, especially the father of the big tiger, the whole body completely collapsed, there was no way, the three people discussed, temporarily gave up looking for the child, and went home to make another plan.

As soon as Jin Guangzheng arrived home, he fell headlong on the kang and fell ill.

The three big tiger brothers, the days of working in the mine are very difficult, there is no food to eat, there is no food to eat, there is no food to keep up, and the physical strength cannot keep up with the quota, this vicious circle makes the three tiger brothers despair, the youngest Changyuan proposed, looking for an opportunity to escape from the coal kiln, the big tiger agreed, but pointed out that after he observed the situation around the coal kiln clearly, he decided whether to escape.

When the big tiger was going to work, when he deliberately observed the surrounding environment, the big bell placed at the door of the guard was suddenly ringed, and this bell was equivalent to the siren of the coal kiln.

The absenteeism who had already walked to the mouth of the well, after hearing the bell ringing, couldn't help but look in the direction of the guard, and then they saw a person who had been blurred in flesh and blood came out of the guard's room, and the older miners realized that this person with blurred flesh and blood must be the absenteeism who was caught by the doorman when he escaped.

When they arrived underground, the workers began to count the number of people, and through the counting, they found that a worker named Dasheng did not go underground, and the old miner Li Tie seemed to remember something.

According to his recollection, when he finished work yesterday, Dasheng talked to him that he couldn't earn a few dollars by working hard in the mine, and the old mother at home was still waiting for him to go back to support, and he wanted to go home to do his filial piety for the old mother, but when he told Zhou Papi about his thoughts, Zhou Papi threw him a sentence: 'If you want to go home, you can, but at least you have to sell the coal kiln for five years. Otherwise, don't talk about it', Dasheng knew that Zhou Paopi would rather let himself die in the coal kiln than let him go home, Li Tie also persuaded Dasheng at that time, let him wait for the opportunity, don't do it against Zhou Papi, according to Li Tie's speculation, Dasheng must have thought of an escape plan last night, and it was implemented early this morning.

However, how Dasheng was caught, everyone is still unclear.

At this time, a young man named Liben revealed a secret to everyone, he said, once one of Han San's subordinates drank too much, and boasted in front of him that the walls around this coal kiln are full of sharp iron nails, and you can't find it without picking it up, once someone wants to run over the wall and escape, his hand touches the iron nail, and the iron nail will penetrate the palm of the hand to make it difficult to break free, when the escapee is in pain, a few wolf dogs raised by the doorman will run out, pounce on the escapee and bite him, and nine times out of ten this person will die.

According to Han San's subordinates, this trick was thought up by Zhou Papi, so far, this 'achievement' of Zhou Papi has not come in handy, at that time, I thought that Han San's subordinates drank too much and didn't care, now it seems that what Han San's subordinates said is true, that is to say, Dasheng decided to avoid the guards before dawn when Zhou Papi did not agree to go home, climbed the wall, and entered the trap that Zhou Papi had already laid for the absentees.

No wonder Dasheng's flesh and blood were blurred when he was carried out by Zhou's men, and most of them were bitten by wolf dogs, if this is the case, then Dasheng's life will definitely not be guaranteed.

Listening to Liben's analysis, Dahu gasped, fortunately their brother did not act rashly, otherwise he would have died in vain, and afterwards Dahu told the brothers that with the lesson of Dasheng, the matter of escaping should not be thought about now, only think about it in the long run, and wait for the opportunity.

The next day, Dahu learned from the mouths of his co-workers that Dasheng had been carried out by Han San and them not long after yesterday during the day, and the person had been thrown to the back mountain by Han San's men.

Poor Dasheng originally wanted to stay by his old mother's side in her old age to fulfill her filial piety, but she didn't think about it, and she lost her life if she didn't fulfill her filial piety.

Da Sheng's tragic experience made Da Hu have a deeper understanding of the essence of Zhou Papi and Han San, these people are just wearing human skins, they have no humanity in their bones, they are not even as good as animals, and the life of absenteeism is not as good as a dog in their eyes, where is this coal kiln, it is simply hell, and it is a hell that does not see the light of day.

Dahu hated Zhou Papi and Han San at the same time, but also regretted himself, insisted on going his own way, took his father's advice as the wind in his ears, and made the stupid decision to come to the coal kiln with Han San, and ended up today, but how can anyone in the world sell regret medicine, since he has come to this point, he can only grit his teeth and move forward, although the road ahead is still full of unknowns.

In order to complete the quota, the three brothers changed the previous method of digging coal alone, and used everyone's advantages to divide labor, Dahu and Jin Changshuo's bodies were stronger, responsible for mining coal in front, Jin Changyuan's body was thinner, responsible for loading coal in the back, and when the coal basket was full, the three of them went out together.

Not to mention, in this way, although the labor intensity is the same, the efficiency has been improved, and the three of them can complete the quota and eat justifiably.

Just when the big tiger brothers thought they could breathe a sigh of relief, there was a person who started the idea of the big tiger brothers, who is this person? It's the worker who lives with the big tiger brothers, Gangzi.

Don't look at the Gangzi people who look five big and three thick, but they can work harder than other absenteeism, every day he always completes the quota at the latest, if it is ranked, he can only rank in front of the big tiger brothers, when the big tiger brothers can't complete the quota and can't eat, when the workers lend a hand, he hides far away, for fear of affecting himself, but when the big tiger brothers can complete the quota and can eat enough, he began to play the idea of the big tiger brothers.

One morning, Gangzi found the big tiger brothers and asked each of them to pay him a basket of coal every day, which made the three brothers, who were already alone and exhausted to complete their quota, difficult to accept no matter what, and they categorically rejected his unreasonable request.

In the face of refusal, Gangzi took out another ruthless move, what handle did the three brothers let him catch?

It turned out that when the three brothers were discussing the escape in the shed, Gangzi, who was sleeping in the bed, listened to him, and he threatened the big tiger brothers that if they didn't want to pay tribute coal, he would tell Zhou Papi about their desire to escape, and see who suffered.

Gangzi threw this killer weapon is undoubtedly like a bomb, which really makes it difficult for Dahu, if Zhou Papi knows about the escape, the fate of the three of them will definitely be the same as Dasheng, and now there is only one way in front of Dahu, that is, to agree to his request first, and other things will be said later.

When Dahu tells Gangzi that they agreed to honor coal, Gangzi has a smug smile on his face. His smile angered Dahu, he couldn't figure it out, there were Zhou Papi and Han San in the coal kiln, these people were enough, why were they also bitter, the workers who were already living were not easy, and they had to bully themselves, this night Dahu had insomnia, he lay on the kang and couldn't fall asleep, he was angry that he was unwilling, he wanted to find a way to punish Gangzi.

After a night of hard thinking, Dahu came up with what seemed to be the best of both worlds, and on the way down the well, he told Changyuan and Changshuo his idea, and they agreed to Dahu's approach.

After arriving at the mine, the three big tiger brothers filled three baskets of coal for Gangzi, and saw that they got the coal without much effort, not to mention how happy Gangzi was, as soon as he was happy, his mouth was idle, and he hummed a small tune.

Not long after Gangzi's coal was shipped out, the inspector shouted at the mine, asking Gangzi to go to the well to have something to ask, Gangzi didn't know, and thought that he was the fastest coal today, and the foreman wanted to reward himself, so he ran out of the well.

When he arrived outside the well, he found that the atmosphere outside the field was not right, Zhou Papi and Han San were already waiting outside the well, and Zhou Papi still had three baskets of coal just transported in front of him, Zhou Papi ordered the foreman to pour all the three baskets of coal of Gangzi on the ground, Gangzi was dumbfounded, the three baskets of coal were basically stones, and Gangzi's behavior must have violated the rules of the coal kiln.

Zhou Papi didn't say a word, and ordered Han San to tie Gangzi to a pillar more than one person high, in order to kill the chicken to show the monkey, Zhou Papi ordered the absenteeism in the mine to come up, and he wanted to punish Gangzi in front of the miners, on charges of stealing, cheating, and deceiving the owner.

At this time, Gangzi, don't look at the big shoulders and round waist, after being tied to the pillar, he has no power to bind the chicken, and is more like a lamb to be slaughtered on the meat table.

Han San's two subordinates rounded the belt, and took turns whipping Gangzi, blood stains oozed from the place where the belt fell, the scene was unbearable, and after a while, the flesh and blood were blurred, the first time the big tiger saw this formation in his life, he was so frightened that he hid behind the workers and couldn't bear to look directly.

Gangzi, who was in unbearable pain, wanted to open his mouth several times to tell Zhou Papi the origin of the stones in the coal basket, but was frightened back by Zhou Papi's vicious and cruel eyes, he wanted to confess the big tigers, but he was worried that the consequences of confessing might be more serious.

Gangzi has also worked in the coal kiln for several years, and he knows the human nature of Zhou Papi very well, in the world of Zhou Papi, there is only one master in the coal kiln, that is, he Zhou Papi himself, if you let Zhou Papi know that there is a person besides him, who also wants to enjoy the rights of the master and let the miners pay him tribute, then this person is openly challenging the authority of his master, and he will definitely die.

In the face of Zhou Papi's torture, Gangzi could only break his teeth and swallow it in his stomach, what could he say? If he hadn't forced the big tiger brothers to be filial, how could there be a stone pretending to be a piece of coal, so admit it.

Standing among the workers, Dahu was tormented mentally and mentally, and to tell the truth, just last night, when Dahu was meditating on replacing coal with stones, he did not expect such serious consequences, which should not have been his original intention.

The development of things is often not subject to people's will, just like Gangzi, he did not expect that the use of threats to force others will lead to disaster, so you must not cross the bottom line, once you cross the bottom line, there will be an uncontrollable situation.

In the end, Gangzi was tortured unconscious, Zhou Papi saw this, his eyelids were not raised, and he commanded Han San:

"Throw him out of the gate, don't die in our coal kiln, bad luck!"

Han San and his men untied the dying Gangzi from the stake and carried it out of the big iron gate, as the big iron gate closed, whether Gangzi lived or died seemed to have nothing to do with the coal kiln.

Zhou Papi's aftermath didn't seem to subside, he stood up from the chair, looking at the absenteeism in front of him who was already scared stupid, he still had something to say:

"You all saw it just now, what is the end of the rules of destroying the coal kiln, your duty is to dig coal for me, complete the quota, a few days ago, you must have heard about it, you don't want to dig coal well, you always want to run out, can you have a good end? It's the same with Gangzi, how about fooling me with stones and posing as coal? There is also no good end, you all listen to me, from today onwards, if anyone dares to betray the master, I will let his end be worse than Dasheng and Gangzi. ”

"Zhou Ye's words, you have all memorized them, now hurry up and go down to work, you won't be able to pay a pound of coal today, go quickly!" Han Sangou shouted at the miners after Zhou Peel's words.

The big tiger is in the well, his heart is like a mess, fear, guilt, entanglement, intertwined, he is afraid, afraid of Zhou is ruthless. He felt guilty that he shouldn't have come up with the idea of posing as a lump of coal with a rock. He was entangled, entangled in the motivation of Gangzi to bully them.

The more the big tiger's mind thought about it, the more chaotic he became, he began to be absent-minded, he was supposed to use a shovel to mine coal in front, but he made a ghost to use his hands to pull coal, black cloth in the middle of winter, Jin Changshuo's shovel just shoveled to the right hand of the big tiger who picked up the coal, the big tiger screamed in pain, the big tiger felt, his right hand was about to break, but he couldn't see the extent of the injury.

Chang Yuan and Chang Shuo asked where the big tiger was injured, and the big tiger said lightly that it was just a little bit of skin, and the big tiger endured the severe pain, and after completing the quota with the two brothers, he began to wash his right hand with water.

In order to stop the bleeding for Dahu's hand, Jin Changyuan went to Han San and begged Han San to get some hemostatic medicine, but Han San gave a sentence:

"How can you be so squeamish, working in a coal kiln, you will inevitably bump and bump, just wrap a strip of cloth around the wound, remember, don't bother me with small things like this in the future."

Seeing Han San's silent attitude, Jin Changyuan had to return to the shed, at this time, a kind worker took out a cloth bag from under his pillow, opened the cloth bag, and there were some dried grass leaves inside, the worker crushed the leaves, pasted them on the wound of the big tiger, and then found some strips of cloth to wrap the wound.

The worker also told Dahu that the cloth bag was filled with herbs for stopping bleeding, which was prepared for him by his daughter-in-law when he came to work in the coal kiln, which was prepared in case of injury, and the worker also told Dahu to change the dressing every day, and never get water until the wound has not healed, otherwise, the wound will be difficult to treat once it is infected.

Dahu repeatedly expressed his gratitude to the workers, Jin Changyuan was moved to tears on the side, the care of the workers and Han San's ruthlessness formed a stark contrast, Han San, although he came from the same village, was so indifferent that there was no trace of humanity. Workers, who had never known each other before, reached out in times of crisis. In order not to make Dahu sad, Kim Chang-won did not mention what happened when he begged Han San.

At night, the workers fell asleep one after another, the big tiger endured the severe pain in his right hand, and he was still thinking about Gangzi, he felt that what happened today had something to do with himself, if because of this incident, Gangzi's life was gone, and he would let himself bear a lifetime of conscience debt, thinking that the big tiger quietly put on his coat and walked out of the shed.

Dahu has long observed that there is a crack in the middle of the big iron gate of the coal kiln, through the crack in the door, you can see the situation outside, according to the time when Han San carried Gangzi out and returned, Gangzi should still be outside the door, if Gangzi is still lying outside the gate, then he is dead, but if Gangzi is missing outside the gate, there are at least two possibilities, either Gangzi comes alive and goes by himself, or Gangzi is saved by a kind person passing by, Dahu hopes that the latter two possibilities.

In order not to let the doorman and the wolf dog find out, the big tiger tiptoed carefully with bare feet, and slipped to the near gate without making a sound, he took advantage of the moonlight, through the crack in the door, carefully observed the situation outside the door, and found that there was nothing outside the door, the big tiger's hanging heart fell, he quickly ran back to the shed, sat in the quilt with his hands together, and silently prayed for Gangzi in his heart, and also relieved his pressure.

The big tiger with the right hand was injured, in order to complete the quota, he had to use the shovel in his left hand to continue mining coal, Jin Changshuo and Jin Changyuan asked the big tiger to rest in the mine several times, but they were all refused, the big tiger knew that the three of them could only barely complete the quota if they didn't do it or did less, the quota would be even more incomplete, and the three brothers would have to starve if the quota was not completed.

In July, the weather in the mountains is fickle, it has been a week of continuous drizzle has not stopped at all, the big tiger brothers as usual down the mine to dig coal, when the coal digging to almost noon, the big tiger heard the squeak sound from the well, the sound will be far away and will be close, just when the big tiger stopped the work in his hand, ready to observe where the sound came from, suddenly 'boom' a loud noise, the big tiger was hit on the head by the gravel, he subconsciously touched it with his hands, wet.

At this time, Dahu couldn't care about himself, he shouted the names of Changyuan and Changshuo, soon, Changshuo responded, Jin Changyuan did not respond, in the dark, with the feedback of the voice, Dahu and Jin Changshuo met, the two brothers held hands and began to look for Changyuan in the alley again, not a few steps, Dahu felt that something was tripped under his feet, and almost fell, at this time he heard a faint voice underground:

"Brother Big Tiger, I'm crushed under the stake and can't move, get me out!"

Hearing Jin Changyuan's cry for help, Dahu and Jin Changshuo leaned down to find Jin Changyuan's location, Dahu saw a wooden stake dozens of centimeters thick pressed on Jin Changyuan's body, and what was even more terrifying was that a lot of coal was piled up on the stake, Dahu and Jin Changshuo used all their strength to move the stake, but after all, they were only eleven or two years old, and they had more than enough strength to do so. The big tiger mobilized the strength of his whole body and shouted:

"The roadway has collapsed! Kim Chang-won was smashed! Uncle, big brother, come and help rescue! ”

The voice of the big tiger is not conspicuous outside the well, but in the airtight well, there is an echo as if an alarm was issued, after the workers heard it, they all touched the darkness and found the roadway where Jin Changyuan was smashed, because the roadway was narrow, and they were afraid of hurting Jin Changyuan, the big tiger and the workers had to give up the tools, and picked it up little by little, the blood was ground out of the hand, and the nail cover was also turned over, no one cared about it, and the only wish was to save Jin Changyuan who was pressed under the stake as soon as possible.

After more than an hour of hard work, in the end, Jin Changyuan was picked up from under the stake, Dahu touched Jin Changyuan's nostrils with his hand, and found that Jin Changyuan was still breathing weakly, he hurriedly and his workers took Jin Changyuan out of the well.

When they saw the light outside the well, the workers found that Dahu's face was full of blood, and the blood on Dahu's face was hit by falling coal and stone when the roadway just collapsed, and the workers hurriedly cleaned the wounds of Dahu and Jin Changyuan, and did a simple bandage, fortunately, Dahu's wound was not deep, and the blood was slowly stopped, but Jin Changyuan's left leg could not be replaced. An elderly worker, after checking Kim Chang-won's left leg, judged from his experience that Kim Chang-won's left leg was broken nine times out of ten.

Jin Changyuan, who came to his senses, began to have severe pain in his left leg, Jin Changyuan kept screaming, and Dahu's heart also tightened with Jin Changyuan's shouting, the only thing he could think of was Han San, he handed Jin Changyuan over to Jin Changshuo to take care of, and went to find Han San himself, at this time, Han San was playing cards with his men, Dahu told Han San that Jin Changyuan was smashed and broke his leg in the well, and the situation was very serious, and he begged him to help invite a Langzhong to treat Jin Changyuan's injuries, Han San finished the last card in his hand and shouted at Dahu:

"Big Tiger, you said that Jin Changyuan was smashed, and I sympathize with it, but it's useless to sympathize alone, and I can't be the master! Let me tell you the truth, Lord Zhou has been going to his second aunt for the past few days, and it is not certain when he will come back, you said that this Jin Changyuan is too, and he should not pick a time to smash his legs, he should be unlucky. ”

"What are you talking about? The roadway collapse is the responsibility of your coal kiln, Changyuan's leg is broken, and you must be found, and you should treat him. The big tiger questioned Han San.

"Hey, Big Tiger, what you said is not right, what do you mean? If you want to say that you should, you should wait for the owner of the Zhou kiln to come back and tell him in person, and now it is in vain to tell me that this coal kiln was opened by Zhou Ye, and Zhou Ye said that he would be cured, and Zhou Ye said that if he was not treated, he would not be treated. Han San's words are reasonable.

"But we were brought out by you, you lend us some money first, we asked a Lang Zhong to show Jin Changyuan first, and when the kiln owner came back and gave the salary, we will pay you back immediately, and now Changyuan's leg is injured, and it will be really hopeless to delay any longer." The big tiger almost knelt and begged Han San.

In the face of Dahu's pleas, Han San did not have the slightest compassion, and repeatedly said a few words of 'I have no money, I can't help it' to deal with it, Dahu really wanted to fight with Han San, but thinking of Jin Changyuan's leg injury, Dahu still held back.

Looking at Jin Changyuan, who was suffering from pain, some workers proposed that everyone pool money to invite Jin Changyuan to invite Langzhong, and ask Langzhong to hand over the matter to Dahu, Dahu heard it, this idea is good, you Han San don't lend us money, we will make up the money ourselves, you won't object.

But when Dahu walked to the guard's room, he was stopped by the doorman, and the doorman told Dahu that the kiln owner had explained before leaving, and without him to speak, the miners were not allowed to take half a step out of the gate, Dahu begged the doorman, and even knelt down for the doorman, the doorman was moved by Dahu's sincerity, and he secretly told Dahu that Han San's words also worked in the absence of the kiln owner.

For the sake of Jin Changyuan, Dahu once again found Han San.

"Big Tiger, they are all from the streets, I understand your feelings, but I am not the kiln owner, if I let you out on my own initiative, who dares to guarantee that you will not run away, in case you don't come back, Zhou kiln master and I want someone, what do I give him? I can't afford this responsibility, besides, the kiln owner will come back the day after tomorrow, and Changyuan's leg injury is not in this day or two, you let Jin Changyuan endure it for two more days. ”

"Han San, what are you worried about me, Jin Changyuan is still waiting for Lang Zhong to see a doctor in the coal kiln, how can I give up Jin Changyuan's life and run away by myself? Well, you give me half a day, and I'll be back when the time comes. Dahu was still trying to convince Han San.

"Big Tiger, why are you so ignorant? Do I have to explain it? In a word, I don't have the right to let you out, go back! Han San angrily threw out this sentence at Dahu.

"Han San, I can see it, what is no money, what is not power, it is all, you are just unhumane, you just want Changyuan to die, don't forget, we are in a village, if Changyuan has a good one, how can you have the face to face Changyuan's parents?! How can you have the face to go back to Shayu Village?! Dahu couldn't help it anymore and shouted at Han San by his name.

"Tell you Dahu, for the sake of being in a village, I don't have the same knowledge as you, I didn't hear what you just said, if you continue to make trouble, I don't miss the feelings of my fellow villagers, and it will be a piece of cake to treat you." Han San said shamelessly.

"It's you, too, deserve to be interceited, to hell with it!" After the big tiger threw a word to Han San, he reluctantly returned to the shed.

The big iron gate is close at hand, but can't get out, Jin Changyuan's leg injury, getting worse day by day, Dahu and Jin Changshuo took care of Jin Changyuan day and night did not go down the well, the workers tried all kinds of ways to let the big tiger brothers eat, on the third day, Jin Changyuan began to have a high fever that did not go away, and from time to time he talked nonsense, which made the big tiger lose his mind, Jin Changshuo brought a basin of cold water, dipped it in water with a towel, wiped Jin Changyuan's body to cool down, and the workers told the big tiger that Jin Changyuan's high fever was caused by wound infection.

The consequences of Jin Changyuan's leg injury, Dahu didn't dare to think deeply, he and Jin Changshuo put their only hope on Zhou Papi, hoping that he would come back from the second wife as soon as possible.

Three days later, Zhou Papi returned to the coal kiln with a large bag of food and clothing brought back from home, and heard that Zhou Papi was back, Dahu and Jin Changshuo hurriedly carried Jin Changyuan to Zhou Papi's office, and Zhou Papi proposed to treat Jin Changyuan's injury.

"What? Please Lang Zhong to heal his injuries? You came here to dig coal and said in advance, complete the quota, eat and live and have wages, but you didn't say that you will treat your injuries, Jin Changyuan's injuries are clearly natural and man-made disasters, and this coal kiln is not responsible. Zhou Papi rolled his eyes and said.

"How can you say it's a natural disaster? It was your coal kiln that collapsed, and Jin Changyuan was smashed, so you have to be responsible for treating your injuries. "The big tiger argues with reason.

"Don't talk nonsense with me, I'll say it again, Jin Changyuan's injury, the coal kiln is not responsible, come on! Get these out of here! After Zhou Papi finished speaking, several of his subordinates began to move the big tiger brothers out of the office.

In the face of Zhou Papi's determination and Han San's indifference, Dahu's heart was cold from head to toe, and he felt that if he continued to entangle with such a cold-blooded person, not only would Jin Changyuan's leg not be cured, but he was afraid that even his life would be difficult to protect.

A bold decision that appears in Huzi's mind to take Kim Chang-won home! This is the only way to keep Kim Chang-won alive. Dahu warned himself that he had to deal with Zhou Papi in a different way, otherwise, no one would be able to get out, Dahu instantly adjusted his mood, returned to Zhou Papi's office, and had a straightforward showdown with Zhou Papi:

"Master Zhou, blame me for not being calm and offending you just now, you are an adult and don't care about villains, you see Jin Changyuan's leg injury, now it is getting more and more serious, the wound has begun to suppurate, last night, I had a high fever all night and talked nonsense, I am worried that if it goes on like this, in a few days, Jin Changyuan is likely to die in the shed, you are the one who opened the coal kiln, the picture is auspicious, if Jin Changyuan dies in your coal kiln, isn't it also bad luck for you, I and Jin Changshuo combined, so that he will die here here, Why don't we take him home, out of the gate of your coal kiln, Jin Changyuan's life and death have nothing to do with your coal kiln, do you say this is the reason. ”

"Don't look at your kid's age, you're quite good at talking, everyone who does business cares about the word 'bad luck', Jin Changyuan must not die in my coal kiln, so when are you going to take Changyuan away?" Zhou Papi, who has always been domineering, agreed to Dahu's appeal for the first time.

"You settle our wages, and we'll leave at once." Dahu made his demand.

"It stands to reason that you haven't worked with me for three years, and the wages can't be settled, but I'm still very reasonable, and the wages will be given to you, but there is only one thing, take Changyuan with you immediately, leave my coal kiln, and go as far as possible." Zhou Papi seemed to be generous and said to the big tiger.

"Han San! You take Dahu to the account room to settle the account, and let them leave the coal kiln immediately after settling the account, I have been in good luck for the past two days, but I can't let Jin Changyuan, this kid, spoil my luck. Zhou Papi instructed Han San.

Zhou Papi agreed so happily, in Dahu's expectation, aside from Zhou Papi's human-faced and beastly side, he has his 'weakness', that is, he can't mention the word 'death' in front of him, once someone mentions 'death' in front of him, he will get goosebumps all over his body, what is the specific reason that makes him so sensitive to the word 'death', there is a reason.

Dahu remembers that when he first came to the coal kiln, an old miner told Dahu about such an incident.

Said that a few years ago, one of his co-workers, because of overwork fell ill in the shed, the miners begged Zhou Papi several times, to see a doctor for the worker, Zhou Papi just refused, in the end, the worker was sick and hungry with a handful of bones left, the whole person died like a skeleton, on the night of this worker's breath, he gave Zhou Papi a dream, in the dream to Zhou Papi said something, only Zhou Papi himself knows.

Early the next morning, Zhou Papi took Han San to visit the worker in the shed as an exception, but when he arrived at the shed, Zhou Papi saw that the worker's bed was empty, and he asked all the people in the shed, and they all said that they didn't know where the worker was, but everyone was sure that it was impossible for the worker to go by himself, unless he turned into a wisp of green smoke and flew into the sky.

In the world, there can be no such thing, the mysterious disappearance of this worker, so that Zhou Papi panicked, he asked Han San to look inside and outside the coal kiln for several days, there was no news of this worker, but Zhou Papi's nightmare did not end because of the disappearance of the worker.

Zhou Papi every night, will dream of this worker, skinny staring at blood-colored eyes, stretching out his hands to ask for his life, Zhou Papi dare not sleep at night, he is afraid to close his eyes, the worker came to him again to ask for his life, in order to keep the nightmare away from him, he also specially invited the monks in the temple to come to the coal kiln for the workers to overdose, it is said that it does not work at all, later, Zhou Papi let Han San and a few of his subordinates live next door to him, to give himself courage.

From then on, in front of Zhou Papi, the death of the worker could not be mentioned, and once the death was mentioned, Zhou Paopi would be annoyed and angry, and his spirit would break. When Dahu listened to the old miner, he asked, will that worker really disappear mysteriously? The old miner avoided answering.

The reason why Dahu dared to ask Zhou Paopi to settle the salary and take Jin Changyuan away was also inspired by the 'story' told to him by the old miner, but he didn't expect this trick to be quite smart, Zhou Paopi was afraid that Jin Changyuan would become the second worker to die in the coal kiln, so his nightmare continued, so he agreed to Dahu.

Zhou Papi and Han San's humanity, Dahu hated it deeply, and he had to immediately take Kim Chang Suk and Kim Chang Won out of the coal kiln.

When they returned to the shed, packed up their clothes and prepared to leave, the workers handed over the coils prepared in advance for the road to the hands of the big tiger, and these coils were squeezed out of their wages one by one.

This made Dahu realize for the first time in his life that in addition to his parents, the care and thoughtfulness of the workers, this kind of care and thoughtfulness is so warm-hearted, in order to survive, the workers often do not have the opportunity to show their feelings for each other on weekdays, but at the critical moment, only they can selflessly from their own pockets, take out the hard-earned money to support their brothers to help their brothers, Dahu does not know, how to express his gratitude, he pulled Changshuo, kneeling and kowtowing to the workers, in order to express his gratitude, Jin Changyuan can not kneel due to a leg injury, He clasped his hands together as a sign of gratitude.

The workers escorted the big tiger brothers to the gate, and the big tiger pulled Changshuo and Jin Changyuan to say goodbye to the workers again. The scene was poignant, and at this time, Han San, who tricked them into coming to the coal kiln, didn't even take a picture, and accompanied Zhou Papi to play mahjong.
