On either side of the passage were wooden cages, from which various noisy roars could be heard. I have to say that this prison is really rich, and there are people of all races. Although he knew that this was just a script, Wen Zhong was still curious about how this prison could be done when so many different races came together.

Having said that, it is clear that the prisoners on both sides are not very welcoming to Wen Zhong, a newcomer. Except for those who sit in place and look evil and crazy, and almost don't advertise themselves as supervillains, more people are very cooperative to show their hunger and thirst.

The prison guard who walked in front kept smashing the outstretched arm with the wooden stick in his hand, but Wen Zhong, who was walking in the middle, did not think of himself as a lamb in a wolf pack, and he glared at all the prisoners who dared to yell at him with fierce eyes.

The prison guards who walked in front were very satisfied with their majesty today, and these damn shit were very cooperative and quiet after seeing themselves coming. They didn't notice that these 'damn shit' were looking behind them in fear.

Finally passing through this peaceful passage, Wen Zhong was pushed and thrown into a small cell by two jailers. Although the prison looks chaotic, it is still a single room, with a little private space. As the wooden door of the cell was locked, Wen Zhong sat up.

Although this was a single room, the wooden cage in this cell was far less large than the two wooden cages next to it, narrow and low, and Wen Zhong could not even stand upright. After the soldier left, the cell began to fall silent, and the scorching sun scorched the land, so that the prisoners, who had been restless before, were no longer in the mood to shout.

As if fearing that the prisoners would die of heat, every once in a while, some soldiers would rudely pour sewage on the prisoners with buckets. The prisoners didn't care about the quality of the water at all, and frantically sucked the water that was sprinkled on their bodies. Wen Zhong allowed the sewage to be sprinkled on his body, and the water stains quickly evaporated in the high temperature, as if they had never existed.

It went back and forth three times, uh... Maybe five times, and finally it was dusk in the afternoon. The sun had set, and the animal-like behavior had finally stopped, but by this time, most of the prisoners in the cage had been exhausted by the scorching sun.

"Hey, what's your name? Where did it come from? "Wen Zhong's wooden cage is on the innermost side, only against the wall. And it was the wooden cage next door to Wen Zhong who made a voice to ask.

Wen Zhong followed the sound and looked, only to see that on the other side of the wooden cage, there was a faintly red white man sitting all over the sun. Wen Zhong didn't want to deal with him, but he quickly changed his mind. The white man who was questioned was called Adriano, and his name in the script was Hugh Rip. Strictly speaking, it can be regarded as a supporting role with a name. Although I don't know what kind of plot will happen next, there is no doubt that this guy will inevitably appear near the main plot.

I saw Wen Zhong pointing his head and shaking his head and saying, "I don't know, I don't remember." ”

Hugh glanced at Wen Zhong's filthy face that had been blown to a pulp by the wind and sand, and then watered by sewage, and curiously pointed to the blood stain on Wen Zhong's forehead that had clotted into blood and said, "You were attacked?" ”

Wen Zhong still shrugged his shoulders and said, "I don't know, what about you?" How did you get caught? ”

Hugh said helplessly: "You know, after the gold rush in the Grand Canyon, where else can there be gold in the world to earn. It's the capital of gold, but it seems to me that there's nothing here but camel and sand everywhere. Aha, the big American dream is a joke. I just made a bet with a couple of drunkards in the tavern that I'll be here when I wake up! ”

Wen Zhong silently looked at Hugh and didn't speak, this guy looked untruthful, completely unconvincing.

As if he was being stared at by Wen Zhong uncomfortably, Hugh compromised and said, "Okay, okay, maybe two, maybe three." I got into a fight with a couple of drunks, shot two or three people in the chaos, and then got caught here! ”

"Will you be executed? I remember that the death penalty was not abolished here! Wen Zhong was silent for a moment, and then asked slowly.

Hugh sneered, shook his head and said, "I'm not worried that I won't be able to sell!" ”

"Sell? What do you mean? ”

Hugh patted his fairly strong muscles and said, "The gold of this place is people." The strong will soon be bought as slaves. Only those prisoners who had no value were sentenced to death. People like me, as long as they are bought, will soon be free. Ironically, I'm here to pan for gold. But now, it has become gold in the eyes of others. ”

Wen Zhong was still silent, obviously not expecting that in the setting of the script, there was such an act as buying and selling slaves. Practices that were banned in the second half of the 19th century were still prevalent in Egypt in the first half of the 20th century.

Hugh on the side saw that Wen Zhong fell into silence, and thought that Wen Zhong had been frightened by the upcoming tragic fate, and comforted: "Actually, you don't have to be so afraid, although it is difficult for your physique to be sold, but the tastes of people in this place are a little strange, maybe you can still see it after you wash it, maybe someone wants it." ”

Looking at Hugh's teasing on the side, Wen Zhong couldn't help but roll his eyes and said, "Will anyone want you?" How long have you been here? ”

The expression on Hugh's face froze immediately, and it was obvious that under the arrangement of the plot, this thing had been here for a long time.

"Tell me, can you sit here forever? Ever wanted to escape from here? Wen Zhong put away his taunts and began to change the subject.

Hugh's state changed quickly, and he staggered over, leaned against the wooden cage and said, "The more the wooden cage is at the front, the easier it is to be sold." As the so-called best 'commodity' should be put at the forefront, this is business! Because of this, those guys with good physique and good looks are always the first to be bought. There are only two ways to get out of here, either be bought or dragged out and hanged, there is no third way to go! ”

Wen Zhong was a little surprised, "Isn't international law already prohibiting the slave trade?" ”

"Cut! That's the rules of the game, and you can choose to abide by or not to follow the rules of the game, not to mention the rules of the game played by the group of people above, as far as I know, there are still many places that require a lot of manpower. You're still worried about yourself, this cage you're staying in, since I came in, there have been six people living in it, and all of them have been pulled out... Ugh! Hugh gestured with both hands to choke his throat.

"Haven't you ever thought about escaping? Or a way to escape? Wen Zhong is still a little unwilling.

"Yes, but it can't be!" A wry smile appeared on Hugh's face.
