Chapter 979: Liwei
Darkness finally enveloped the earth, and a brilliant and magnificent sea of stars appeared on the sky, and two crescent moons with a faint blood color hung in the sky, sprinkling cold light on the ground.
In the camp of the No. 17 mining area, the miners, or prisoners, who had worked all day, dragged their tired bodies into the extensive dining hall in groups of three or five, and under the order of the captain of the overseer, they received their own portion of the nourished dinner with the number plate in their hands.
About forty percent of the prisoners had orange plates in their hands, indicating that they were not qualified, that they could only receive half the amount of nutrients, and that the fellows had bloody whip marks on their bodies; More than half of the remaining prisoners had their number plates in their hands in normal blue, which allowed them to receive a standard amount of nutritious dinner.
If the miners do not have enough to eat, their work efficiency will undoubtedly be reduced the next day, and if they fail to complete the task, they will have to suffer the punishment of whipping and deprivation of nutrients, thus forming a vicious circle.
Unlucky people who fail to complete the task many times in a row are very likely to be used by the overseers to beat them to death in front of all the prisoners, and then throw the corpses out to feed the indigenous beasts. Many of the abandoned pits outside have been filled with bones.
Qin Feng in the team silently observed, and the prisoners who had received the nutrients would walk away quickly, each looking for a place to eat quickly without saying a word, separated from each other at a sufficient distance, while maintaining essential vigilance against their surroundings.
Fights between prisoners over food are also often staged, and everything is done to survive, and those big, ruthless guys often bully and oppress their fellows, and as long as they are not caught red-handed by the overseers, nothing will happen.
Qin Feng looked at the red number plate in his hand, which was part of the special reward given to him by the overseer after he handed over the high-grade rough stone, with which he could not only receive a double portion of nutrients, but also get a large piece of oily and smooth Tino beef, which was enough to ensure the physical consumption of the next day.
There were a handful of fellows who were just as lucky as him and who had been rewarded by the overseer.
It didn't take long for Qin Feng to approach the food distribution window, and the fat-faced strong man wearing a chef's white hat inside checked the number plate he handed over, nodded and threw over two jars of unopened nutrients, plus a bottle of circulating pure water, and Tino beef sealed in a plastic paper bag, attracting countless envious, jealous and hateful eyes around.
The Tino Ox is an indigenous beast on this planet, the adult body can weigh more than ten tons, quite fierce and difficult, only the armed regular army soldiers can be dealt with collectively, because of the meat quality, rich in energy favored by the prison management, ordinary prisoners are not qualified to taste this delicacy.
Qin Feng took his own food, took brisk steps to avoid the crowd, came to the corner of the restaurant, and sat down at random to start tasting.
Unscrewed the lid and tasted it, Qin Feng shook his head secretly, this kind of thing for prisoners to eat, naturally can't expect how good the taste will be, there are still a lot of impurities in it, the only thing that can be praised is that the nutrients are quite sufficient, supplementing calories and filling the stomach is not a problem.
The taste of the water is the same, except for the taste of Tino beef, the key is that this is a real natural food, in this dark place, ordinary prisoners want to eat this relatively high-end food, no special credit is not expected.
"Boy, hand me over that piece of meat!" An eerie voice rang out in my ears.
"This is coming?"
Qin Feng thought with a sneer in his heart, and when he looked up, he saw two bald strong men with scars walking over, blocking him left and right, and it was difficult to hide the greed in his fierce eyes.
"I won't hand over things, if you want to fight, just go together." He replied lazily, taking a large bite of beef nonchalantly.
A bald man sneered: "You are really not afraid of death? Don't think that Lao Tzu won't dare to do it here, you little guy who has taken shit luck, don't think that the overseer will stand up for you! ”
Within a few tens of meters around, there were hundreds of people standing from far and near, although they did not move, their eyes were watching the movement here with great interest, if this lucky boy was a little weakened in the face of pressure, they would immediately pounce on him like a bloodthirsty wolf pack and tear him to pieces!
"Hehe......"
Qin Feng has been too lazy to pay attention to this kind of ant-like goods, is it worth wasting saliva on the dying person?
"Shameless stinky boy!"
The two fellows were furious, and reached out to grab him, bringing a gust of wind with them.
In the next moment, a dense crack like a popping bean sounded, and a continuous howl echoed through the inside of the restaurant, attracting the attention of the prisoners in the distance.
The two bold guys were paralyzed on the ground like a puddle of mud, barely intact on the outside, but the bones inside were all shattered, but because the genetically optimized physique was strong enough, they still managed not to die immediately.
Qin Feng still sat upright, enjoying the food in his hand unhurriedly, but none of the prisoners around him dared to jump out to provoke again, but retreated into the distance one after another, leaving him a large blank area.
Even the fiercest and strongest prisoner couldn't see his movements clearly just now, which means needless to say, the guys who can survive in this ghost place are all masters of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, and seeing the wind and steering the rudder, naturally no one will be willing to send them to death.
The sound of alloy steel-soled combat boots rubbing against the floor sounded, and a big man in black uniform with a majestic face hurriedly walked over, briefly checking the injuries of the next two guys, and a touch of coldness flashed in his eyes.
"Drag it out!"
A deep and deep voice sounded, and a few followers behind him came over silently and dragged the two unlucky ghosts away, without saying a word from beginning to end.
The prisoners who watched from the sidelines couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts, injuries of this magnitude were so serious, and without the advanced medical cabin and the corresponding genetic medicines, there was no hope of recovery. However, it is obviously impossible to use such high-quality resources on prisoners, so the leader's order is equivalent to the death sentence of these two guys.
The big man in the black uniform squinted his eyes slightly and looked at Qin Feng, and said in an indifferent tone: "You new little guy really has two hits, and you actually looked away before." However, these two bastards are the more effective cattle under Lao Tzu after all, and if you kill them, there will be less and less people to work for Lao Tzu in the future! ”
"What shall I do to you, you say?"
Qin Feng drank the last sip of nutrients unhurriedly before he said lightly: "How much value can these two animals create for you in a day?" ”
"It's not a lot, there's always twenty or thirty rough stones."
"So?"
Qin Feng smiled coldly: "It's okay, as long as I eat and sleep well, you will see more rough stones in the future." ”
Dahan nodded unexpectedly: "That's okay, I'll believe you first, but if you can't do it, the rules here are not decorations." ”
