Chapter Seventy-Three: The Storm (Part II)
I didn't dodge too much, just a subtle dodge that was hard to detect, and the spit that should have landed on my face landed on my shoulder.
The foreman, disappointed that he had lost his head, took another puff of his cigarette and looked at me with an eyebrow raised.
Ye Xiao was angry, and couldn't help shouting: "You" But before he finished this sentence, he was pulled behind by me, but the foreman asked with a teasing attitude: "What am I?" ”
I wiped the saliva off my shoulder with my cuffs, and interrupted the foreman in a calm tone: "I just want to ask the foreman, this dumping of earth and stone can be done on the side of the iron frame, why was Ye Xiao and I asked to carry it down from the mountain in person?" ”
"Oh? I remember that when I was assigned the task, I just said that I would transport earth and rocks down the mountain, and I didn't let you stupidly push a pile of earth and rocks down the mountain. You are stupid, can you blame me? "The foreman was clearly cheating.
"We're not stupid, it's that no one told us. Besides, the construction site we were assigned to happened to be on the other side of the iron frame, and we couldn't see it at all. I should have been told about this. I said unhurriedly, looking really reasonable.
"Hahaha" The foreman looked at me like a fool, and then began to laugh inexplicably, and his laughter drew laughter from the other foremen.
This obvious mockery,Let Ye Xiao want to be impulsive again,But I glared at it,And obediently retracted,Unconsciously I feel as if I have erected a certain kind of authority in front of Ye Xiao.,And I know this guy better.,At first, it was obviously scrupulous.,When you get angry, you will ignore everything.,Typical impulsive character.,It's missing the wolf clan has a gloomy and forbearant thing.。
I waited patiently for the foreman to finish laughing, and when they had finally finished their exaggerated performance, the foreman in charge of me said viciously, "What obligation do I have to tell you, and you didn't ask!" ”
"Okay, now that we know, we will also use iron frames to transport earth and rocks in the future." I didn't want to argue too much, so I left with only one sentence, and I was about to leave with Nightscream.
"You want to go? You know the rules that demon clans are not allowed to fight each other, right? The foreman didn't expect me to have such an attitude, and he was obviously angry, but it was only anger in his attitude, but there was inexplicable calmness in his eyes.
"I know, this will be punished, according to the rules, there should be no pay, right? You can deduct as much as you want. "I am neither humble nor arrogant, I know these rules. In addition, I am also very concerned about wages, but I just say this in order to force this foreman.
"Hehe, of course, there is no salary. You won't have to do two months of hard labor. The foreman said with a cruel smile.
"I think I should be serving a month of hard labor, right?" I narrowed my eyes, still not angry, just asking.
"A month? Is it? From now on, I say two months is two months, and there will be no pay. If you talk nonsense again, then three months, what can you do? The smile lines on the corners of his mouth grew bigger and bigger, and then he played with the whip in his hand and said to me again: "Also, your earth and stones can only be transported down by yourself, and I will send someone to guard you." I forgot to remind you that whether it is a month or two months, the tasks prescribed by hard labor must be completed. I think you have time to reason with me, so naturally you are very idle. There are no idlers in the labor area, so I feel the need to give you a little more of a task. ”
After saying this, he licked the corner of his mouth, looking like he had succeeded in his treacherous scheme, but I clearly felt that it was a net being opened, and his eyes were so natural waiting for my next reaction.
"What if I refuse?" I turned completely to face him, and in my ears, the sound of night whistle breathing was already heavy, obviously he could never accept this harsh condition, if nothing else, according to the ability of the two of us, we would definitely never be able to complete this labor, there was a task every month, and so on, what awaited us was to stay in the labor area forever, and then be deducted from our wages in various ways.
But this time Night Howl was not so impulsive, but said: "You can't do this, it's completely against the rules of the dungeon, and besides, my eldest brother is a nobleman." ”
However, Ye Xiao's words did not arouse much interest in the foreman, and he looked at us scrutinically: "What about your people? Here, when the nobles came to serve, they had to obey the arrangement of the foreman. I don't mind you making trouble at all, so let's see which side this lord of the labor district will be on? Of course, you can also refuse, and there are two ways to choose. ”
My expression began to become serious, and I had been holding back my anger until now, I just wanted to see what direction the purpose of this conspiracy was directing? There is absolutely nothing in this world that can be without a reason, even if it is targeted.
"The first is to be put to death, and it is absolutely forbidden to make troubles in this labor area. Second, go to the fighting ring, the door of the fighting ring is always open for you, and if you fight fifty fights, you will not only be free, but you will also win untold amounts of money and glory. The foreman's gaze calmed, and at the end his tone was even a little seductive.
I nodded, and I already knew in my heart that my goal was to fight in the arena, and I had to fight fifty of those fights.
Although I didn't understand why, but when I got the answer, my heart was already settled, and I suddenly smiled at the foreman, he certainly didn't expect me to react like this, and his face darkened: "What are you laughing at?" Did you know that you have a nasty smile? ”
How would I answer him, just smiled and strode towards him.
His anger seemed to be ignited all at once, and the whip he was holding in his hand suddenly came towards me, and I have to say that compared to the snake guard in the pork loin, his whipping skills were too bad, and I reached out and grabbed his whip: "You ask me why I laugh?" That's because I can finally beat you up! I've got your answer, isn't that just trying to force me to go to the ring? ”
"What are you fartting?" The foreman was visibly annoyed, and wanted to snatch the whip from my hand, but how could he do it?
His eyes gradually became wrong, and there was a hint of trepidation in the gaze that looked at me, but all he was greeted was my fist, a punch that was not too hard.
This time it was like exploding a hornet's nest, and all the foremen rushed towards me, and the anger that I had just accumulated in my heart was finally completely ignited at this moment, opening the general wind formation, one-third of the force formation, and the soul power gushed out, which was naturally compressed into armor to protect my whole body, and rushed into this group of foremen.
It's just that with such a small amount of ability, in the face of this group of foremen, it is still like a wolf to pounce on the flock, which is not challenging at all.
After all, most of their strength is only at the level of the nobles, and they are a little stronger than ordinary demons who have not taken the purple liquid, how can they be seen in my eyes? Fighting with such a group of foremen, I even had a feeling of boredom.
For some purpose, I can only suppress my strength again and again, so that I can inadvertently hang a little bit of color, which is more laborious, but I can maintain this appearance.
A chaotic fight, which took less than fifteen minutes, ended with the twenty or so foremen present, all of whom I had put down to the ground, and I resisted the strong urge to kill them, but grabbed the foreman of mine, pretended to gasp for breath, and dragged him out of here.
It's just that inadvertently, I saw the yellow demon shivering on the side, after all, I still smiled cruelly, and suddenly swept over his head with a kick, and he didn't even have time to say a word to beg for mercy, so he fell to the ground, his eyes and nose were full of blood.
There is no doubt that he died, as a memorial to the more than 2,000 people who die here every year, and to find an outlet for my anger.
After doing this, I silently dragged the foreman who had broken his ribs and walked towards the rest area of the labor area, and behind me there was a night howling voice: "Big brother, wait for me." ”
I looked back and frowned at the wolf demon who seemed to be following me, his face was covered with color, and it was clear that he had done it just now. However, in my plan, this time to start fighting, it should be the end of this fate with him, if he didn't do it, he could have stayed out of it, I believe my feeling, this time the matter is definitely just for me, and Night Howling is not so important.
And my feelings, after I recovered Nie Yan's memory, became much more accurate.
"You should leave, you don't have to follow me." I didn't expect him to do it, knowing how serious the consequences would be, and still choosing like this, if I wasn't touched in my heart, it wouldn't make sense. But it is precisely because of this touch that I will not change my original intention.
"Big brother, why?" Ye Xiao looked silly, and his eyes were full of grievances and incomprehension.
"Go back to work now, and don't admit that you fought. I promise you'll stay out of it. Go ahead, for the next month of hard labor, you won't face this embarrassing situation again, and you'll be free when you're done. As I spoke, I began to feel bored in my heart, wondering why I was explaining so much to a wolf demon.
Ye Xiao just shook his head, and I ignored him, turned around and dragged the foreman on.
He followed me silently, and after walking less than fifty meters, I suddenly became angry, kicked him hard, and yelled: "Get out! ”
