Chapter 1, crossed

"It's crossed, it can't be me, right?"

Looking at the few strange men in front of him who were wearing ancient costumes, wearing disheveled hair, and having dirty faces who were anxiously busy with something, Lu Zhan said to himself.

Just a moment ago, he was on the phone with a girl who was about to become his girlfriend in H City, who knew why God didn't like him, suddenly thundered, and a lightning bolt struck him, and then he only felt numb all over his body, a flower in front of him, and his mind was blank, and the next moment, he was top-heavy and appeared in a big dirt pit.

This loess pit is about three zhang deep and six zhang wide, and there are some straw and wood in it, and there are five men who are anxious like ants on a hot pot, and they are surrounding them...... Drill wood - yes, drill wood, one of them rubbed a small wooden stick with both hands, and let the end of the small wooden stick drill around on a large wooden plank, on which a layer of straw was spread, and at this time a trace of green smoke came out of the straw.

"Kong Wu, hurry up, work harder, it's about to ignite the fire."

"Brother Kong, come on, our surname is entrusted to you, as long as you succeed in drilling wood to make a fire, Liu Thief will let us go."

"Well, and our family, if we have something to do with them, what can they do?"

"Poor my new wife, she is already pregnant with my child, if anything happens to me, how will she and her mother and son live......"

“……”

"Ahh The noise annoyed me. You want to live, you have relatives, I don't want to live I don't have relatives? I also have an old mother...... I don't have the strength, why is it so difficult to drill wood for fire? ”

"If only there were flints."

"If it is, if there is a fart, if I have a father who is a big official, I don't have to suffer."

"Or we'll take the opportunity to escape at night."

"Run? How to escape? The wall is so high, even if you climb it, you may be killed. ”

"Can you be quiet? It's time for lunch, I'll come back after dinner, try one more time, and one more time it will work. Kong Wu looked up at the sky, the sky was full of white clouds, like a layer of snow, white and numb: Could it be that we are in a catastrophe this time? Mother, if I am really gone, you, your old man, should take care of yourself, and in the next life, I will make you a cow and a horse.

"Brother Wu, I, I still have some dry food here, you, you eat, come back to drill wood when you are full."

"Okay, Zhang Shan, you actually hid food privately? Is there anyone like you? No wonder I feel hungry all day long, it turns out that you left a hand. A man with a round figure and two stick eyebrows rolled his eyes and exclaimed.

"No, no, you misunderstood. The dry food I had with me was before I was caught. Everyone has eaten all the food for the past two days, and I can't keep it. Zhang Shan, the youngest of the five, was thin and thin, untied his right leg guard as he spoke, took out a piece of something that was a little blackened from it, and handed it to Kong Wu, "Brother Wu, give it, this is my home-made wheat cake, you can eat it." ”

Kong Wu is the tallest, about seven feet long, with broad shoulders and a round waist, thick eyebrows, tiger eyes, and a big nose and thick lips. Hearing Zhang Shan say that there was dry food, he couldn't help frowning, and now he saw that the cake was not half a palm's size, and it was not dark, one didn't want to take the dry food that Zhang Shan had kept for so long, and the two of them didn't use it if they ate it - too little, so he shook his head, "Shanzi, keep it for yourself, Brother Wu is not hungry." ”

Why were they arrested? It turned out that Liu Tong, the newly appointed commander of Heping County, in order to collect money, wantonly looted the people, cleverly set up all kinds of taxes, and caused the people's resentment to boil, so he almost rose up, in order to kill chickens and respect monkeys, he sent people to arrest dozens of people, and tortured them in different ways -- let some people fight each other, the winner lives, and the loser dies; Let some people drill wood to make fire, and if they succeed, they will have a chance to live; Let some people sleep with snakes...... Some people hung upside down with their legs tied, and some climbed the cliff with their bare hands...... In a word, there are a lot of dead, and it is very tragic.

But Liu Tong still spends all day drinking, singing nightingales, treating human life as a mustard, caring about his own life, who cares about the death of others - why is he not afraid? The reason is simple, there are people on it.

Kong Wu and the five people were arrested and locked in a big pit by him, and asked them to drill wood to make fire, and if they succeeded, they would be released, and if they failed, they would stay in it forever -- in order to make the "game" last, he asked someone to send them a meal every day, so that they would not be so hungry that they would not have the strength to "perform" after two days.

It's the third day.

Normal people will be hungry if they eat three meals a day, not to mention that they only eat one meal a day, and there is a difficult task: the ancients drilled wood to make fire.

Hearing Kong Wu say this, Zhang Shan wanted to take back the wheat cake, but when he saw Li Si and the other two looking at the things in his hand with hot eyes, the movement in his hand stopped, and as soon as he gritted his teeth, he handed the wheat cake over, "Li Si, if you are hungry, you can take it and eat it." ”

"Really?"

When Li Si heard this, his eyes lit up, and he immediately reached out to pick it up, but there were two hands stretched out at the same time, namely Wang Hu and Zhao He.

"I'll divide it."

Li Si rolled his eyes, grabbed it, tore it into three pieces with force, and left a little big one for himself, and bit it up "boom".

Wang Hu and Zhao He were hungry and didn't choose to eat, so they took it and stuffed it into their mouths and chewed it like a cow eating grass. Zhang Shan silently bent down to wrap his leggings.

At this moment, two laughs came from the edge of the earthen pit, which was about three feet high.

Lü Zhan hid behind a small pile of straw, so Kong Wu didn't notice him - he roughly understood what they were saying, a little rappy, like a northern accent. Before, he thought that they were not filming costume films, but when he looked around, there were no cameras, so he denied it. It scared the hell out of him. Seeing that they were still drilling wood for fire, Lu Zhan had a sense of wanting to die - he had read "Xun Qin Ji" written by Master Wang Yi, why was Xiang Shaolong so lucky, and he traveled to the Great Warring States Period when the heroes rose together and competed in the Central Plains, and he traveled to the Stone Age, and he also drilled wood to make fire?

But after a closer look at their clothes and listening to their words, he denied that this was not the Stone Age, slash-and-burn farming, and wondered if he would go out to say hello to them, ask them where and when it was, and then make plans, but found that someone was coming.

It was two soldiers wearing crooked helmets, leather vests, and large knives at their waists, one old and one young, the old soldier carried a bamboo basket in his hand, and from it came a slight fragrance, presumably containing food; The young soldier took a hemp rope with the thickness of chopsticks in his hand, and looked at the five people in the pit who were unkempt and a little like beggars, and the thief smiled: "Old Han, we have been sending them food every day for the past two days, and they don't say thank you, it's really annoying, why don't we play with them?" ”
