Chapter Forty-Three: The Desert Stone House
In the next two months, Buxiu and Xiao Hei waded through mountains and rivers, changed to various flying cars, and kept walking towards the north. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"This journey... I don't know how many times I have circled the earth. With such advanced technology, isn't there a space gate or something?" It's really a desperate journey to walk for so long but still in Ouyang's territory! Fortunately, now it's finally about to arrive at the Feng family.
The Feng family is one of the seven families with the same name as the Ouyang family, located in the north of the Ouyang family. Its territory is by no means smaller than the Ouyang family!
For the Feng family, Buxiu doesn't know a lot.
"Blackie... And the last forest, we can reach the fiefdom..."Bu Xiu said listlessly, without words.
Xiao Hei still hasn't changed in the slightest in the past two months, she looked back at the desert Gobi, and finally lay on Buxiu's shoulder, limp and motionless.
Buxiu saw Xiao Hei's movements, and also looked deeply at the Gobi. In the past two months, they have been like ordinary tourists, moving forward without any waves. It was only in that Gobi that something happened that made them feel a little regretful.
Due to the vast territory of the Ouyang family, the customs of many regions along the way were different.
There are many villages on the edge of the Gobi, and there is a great distance between them. The climate here is dry and hot, the yellow sand is full of sky, and the visibility is very low! The grass of the unknown species of Lala grows tenaciously here, enduring the ravages of the yellow sand all day long.
Buxiu changed into a white robe, with strips of cloth tied around his wrists, ankles and waist, and a hat on his head, with translucent gauze hanging from the edge of the hat - this can not only hide his peerless face, but also protect against wind, sand and ultraviolet rays...
Buxiu was pleased with his outfit, so he slowly walked into the unknown village.
There are very few people in the village, and everyone covers their faces tightly with white cloths, otherwise they are likely to have chapped skin from the sand and ultraviolet rays - don't laugh, it's going to die!
The houses in the village are all wooden and have a simple structure, and the tallest house is only two floors. Buxiu felt that he could knock down this kind of house with just one punch! The gale was constantly blowing down the street, rolling up strands of yellow sand, and even the wooden sign hanging in front of the house was blown to the side, swaying from side to side.
Looking at this extremely backward, barren and desolate village, Buxiu wondered in his heart, "Are they relying on these houses to protect against the wind and sand?"
He continued to walk forward with doubts, and it was not until he saw the people with patches and the stone houses that he suddenly understood: it turned out that there were classes here.
Although it is a stone house, it is only slightly sturdy compared to a wooden house. The inner layer of the stone house is still wooden!
"No! building a house out of wood in the desert?!" Buxiu's heart jumped, but as soon as he turned around, he immediately fainted to the ground!
"Haha, another fool is in the trap!
"Yes!"
After Buxiu passed out, three people walked out of the back of the house. The leader of the group commanded casually, and the other young man agreed as if to please.
Another young man remained silent, standing there looking at Buxiu with a hint of sympathy and sadness in his eyes.
The leader glanced at him and scolded: "I don't want to beat you today!
The young man, still without saying a word, stepped forward and tied up Buxiu together, and carried him into the stone house in front of him.
After entering the stone house, Buxiu was stripped naked and thrown aside.
A big man looked at Buxiu and said, "Looks like a girl! Give him a dress and let him work! If you want to find a girl, you can turn a corner! Don't give me the whole thing!"
The leader nodded in agreement, and only after the big man left, he kicked a step and ordered: "Do what the boss says!"
"I hear you!"
The leader looked at the young man and scolded, "Are you really fucking dumb?!" and then whipped at him! Looking at his technique, he actually faintly had the strength to enter the rank (before the forging level)!
The young man endured the pain and hurriedly spoke, "Yes..."
The leader nodded, still scolding and leaving.
The young man who patted the sycophants also slapped the 'dumb' face and said, "Dumb! I'll leave this person's business to you! Damn it so white! I have to put out the fire quickly!"
After everyone was gone, the 'dumb' looked at Buxiu and muttered, "You're unlucky... Resign yourself to your fate. ”
Buxiu lay on the ground and said, "You are called dumb?"
Immediately, he ignored the dumb and surprised expression, slowly got up and put on the tattered clothes, and hooked his fingers into the distance.
The 'dumb man' looked at Bu Xiu and the little black cat who came from nowhere, and replied lightly: "It seems that you are a little clever and actually pretending to be dizzy." But you better accept your fate, you can't get out of here. ”
Buxiu smiled and asked, "Why?"
"Because they're strong. Moreover, you should stay away from me in the future. ”
Bu Xiu listened to his indifferent words, and asked without the slightest change in his expression: "Okay." What's your name?"
"Dumb," said him, as if he was very reluctant to see Buxiu, turned and walked out of the room.
Buxiu followed behind him and said, "You haven't told me what my job is. ”
The mute looked at Buxiu and pointed to the big earthy yellow stone in the distance without saying a word.
"Moving bricks?" Buxiu laughed.
The mute looked at Buxiu in disgust. This man was so frivolous! He had no idea what he was going to be facing!
In fact, Buxiu really didn't care too much about it. That big man, that is, their real leader, is just the level of forging one step. I just wanted to see why they were fascinated by themselves.
If he wants to escape, he can run at any time.
But, since there is no danger to yourself...... So why not stay and check it out?
So Buxiu stayed here. The mute was surprised to find that the seemingly weak Buxiu could actually complete the task every day! He had not been punished once since he came here! His heart had changed a little about Buxiu, but he still did not say anything to Buxiu.
Buxiu didn't talk to him anymore, and every time they met, they just nodded and passed by.
It's a shop.
This stone house is a shop!
The inside of the shop was extremely dark, and the dust was flying everywhere outside the store! Buxiu and all the others were confined to this small shop, and they were not allowed to step out of the shop! There were ten people like himself and the mute! Each of them was yellow and thin, and he looked like a skeleton! And everyone but himself would be cruelly punished!
They're like a bunch of slaves!
Their expressionlessness, their ignorance, their obedience, their childish intrigues, and their innumerable scars!
And because they were not punished, all the slaves alienated themselves at the same time!
Buxiu listened to their conversation from a distance, and there was a trace of sadness in his eyes. Along the way, what impressed him the most was not the prosperity of the city, nor the beauty of the landscape, but precisely the faces he had seen in the past few days! Expressionless and desperate faces like walking corpses!
At this time, the mute also came over and worked with Buxiu. He said, "They're going to bully you." ”
Buxiu smiled and nodded to indicate that he knew. Seeing this, the dumb man suddenly threw away the thing in his hand and punched Buxiu in the face!
He scolded angrily: "Why are you laughing?!Do you know your situation?!Do you know that I arrived here when I was six years old?!Do you know how many people have died here?!Do you know that no matter how many people they change, it will always be me who is bullied?!"
Buxiu smiled and stood up, looking at him without saying a word.
Then the leader quickly came over, raised the whip in his hand, and slammed it on the dumb man's body! Just as the second whip was about to arrive, Buxiu suddenly pulled the leader aside and whispered a few words.
The leader touched the copper coin in his arms, nodded with satisfaction, and walked out.
The dumb man looked at Buxiu in disgust, and said coldly: "Garbage." ”
Bu Xiu still smiled and said, "You have a younger brother, which is the youngest." He's the one who gets bullied a lot. ”
The mute resisted the urge to beat Buxiu, and slowly walked past Buxiu: "It's disgusting." You're going to die soon!, and I'm not going to allow you to bully him!"
Three days later, while the bricks were being moved, the sky suddenly darkened.
Buxiu curled the corners of his mouth and muttered, "It's finally here." ”
