Chapter 446
Although he was dismounted by the overseer as soon as he took over the task, as the soldier said, there is a difference between an adventurer and a slave.
Therefore, after the overseer gave him a whip of deterrence, he dismantled Li Ye and Qin Feng and arranged them at different mining sites. This has the intention of not letting the two get together and chat, thus delaying the mining process.
But he didn't know that the adventurer still had the ability to "even text message" and "remote communication" - from the moment they separated, Qin Feng and Li Ye had been on voice call.
There was silence on both ends of the communication, but from time to time you could still hear a different noise from the other end than your own.
For example, when Qin Feng opened a mine, the pickaxe hit very regularly, and the sound was as neat and crisp as raindrops; And Liye maintains the rhythm of "three long and one short" for mining-
It's a wonderful feeling, as if the two are "annocating" their existence to the other end of the communication in a tacit way.
"You're an adventurer?"
As the pickaxe landed on the rocks inlaid with metal on the mountain wall, pieces of ore were mined and put into the bamboo basket beside him, and just as the tenth ore was mined at dawn, a male voice suddenly came from beside him.
The owner of the voice seemed to have deliberately lowered his voice, as the sound was indistinct due to the clanging of the ore, but it was still caught by the dawn of night.
Li Ye turned her head, and at some point a middle-aged man in ragged clothes and an unkempt beard squatted beside her, and his subordinates were also tinkling and beating, but they all seemed to be a little absent-minded.
Yu Guang glanced at Li Ye and looked over, the middle-aged man's eyes showed a trace of panic, and he lowered his voice and pleaded, "Please...... Don't turn your head...... Don't let the foreman notice here......"
Hearing this, Li Ye leaned down slightly, inadvertently approached the gravel, and pretended to look at it before straightening up again. Then I heard the middle-aged man breathe a sigh of relief.
"Thank you......" he couldn't help choking up, "you definitely don't know what kind of life we live when we are trapped here......"
You can't stop the movement in your hands, because a stop is likely to attract the overseer's sideways. Li Ye continued to work with the mining guy in his hand while pondering the middle-aged man's intentions. From the beginning of the conversation, the middle-aged man has been calling her "you", obviously with a pleading meaning.
Li Ye groaned, and lowered his voice and asked, "Is there anything I can do to help you?" ”
"Yes......" The middle-aged man's eyes moistened, although there was still a pile of lifeless ore in front of him, but from this moment on, the gray life of repetition, numbness, and freedom seemed to be lit up again.
That's because he got hope from the words of this adventurer!
"You...... Would you really like to lend a hand? ”
He was trying to restrain his emotions, even though Dawn noticed that his pickaxe-gripping hand had begun to tremble uncontrollably.
She pursed her lips: "You haven't told me yet, who you are and what do you want me to do." ”
After being reminded by Li Yeyi, the middle-aged man remembered that he hadn't told the other party the whole story of the matter, and the other party's cautious attitude was completely understandable.
"I'm sorry, but I'm sorry. Introducing myself, my name is Roy, and I am a blacksmith who lives in the Platinum City, which is famous for its metallurgy. But now, as you can see, I was caught here by these soldiers and completely lost the right to live freely like a slave......"
