Chapter 72: The Storm (I)

Ye Xiao beside me, his face was not good, and no matter how nervous he was, he would realize that it was obviously not a good thing to just target the two of me.

"Haven't you noticed, two adults? You are the only ones who are working hard to transport the earth and rocks on the whole road, and there is no one else? The Yellow Demon said cautiously, observing our expressions as he spoke.

Ye Xiao didn't react, and asked loudly: "What do you mean?" ”

I frowned slightly, he said this, I really found out, the excavation here is also according to a certain number of roads, such as from left to right, from top to the like, in general, there are more people above, you can't dig below first, right? In that case, why is it just me and Nightscream who have to work so hard to transport earth and rock?

The yellow demon didn't say that I didn't notice, I always thought that it was such a big horse realm, I was staggered with everyone, and now that I think about it, I guess it's only been two days, and I'm tired and confused before I noticed this detail.

Ye Xiao's words, the yellow demon did not answer, and looked very embarrassed again, but I said: "You take me to see." He carefully shrunk his neck and said to me, "Two adults, I have a lot of labor, and I can't leave." Why don't I ask someone to take you there? ”

I didn't object, and the Yellow Demon quickly called a cringing human and said a few words to him, and the man waited silently to lead the way.

"What do you mean? Eldest brother? Nightwhine still didn't quite understand, and I looked at the human, my face softened, and I said to him as calmly as possible, "You lead the way." ”

The man said 'yes' carefully, and led us to a branch of the road we had descended on, and in less than ten minutes we had come to the side of the mountain-like boundary.

On this side, there are many tall shelves, which are built layer by layer with iron shelves, like the tower crane used to repair the building on the ground, but the structure is much simpler, and it is much larger, like a hollow tower crane, and their number is so many, densely packed, almost all the mountains on this side, covering all the scope of labor labor.

They were leaning against the side, and every fifteen meters or so, a huge tin frame was placed on the mountain, and I saw someone dumping dirt in the tin frame, and some of the tin frames were filled, and they were pushed out, and then the huge tin frame, which was held in place by countless chains, would automatically fall down.

In addition, there is a huge iron scale next to it to control the speed.

The power of wisdom is really infinite, my face is getting more and more ugly, although I don't fully understand the various kinds of this tool, but at least its simple operating principle has been explained, the earth and stone excavated here do not need to be pushed down by us, only when it is completed, the ore is brought down, and the iron cart we push is used to load ore at all.

"I'm X!" No matter how stupid Ye Xiao was, he also understood the key at this moment, and scolded angrily.

Naturally, my heart was full of anger, and it was obvious that we had been targeted, but I didn't have a seizure at the first time, but asked the human with a pleasant face: "These dirt and rocks are piling up below, what to do?" ”

"My lord, every two hours, there will be an hour when you are not allowed to dump earth and rocks, because someone below will come to carry away the soil and stones in the iron frame, and then raise the iron frame up." The human quickly explained to us respectfully.

I nodded, because this is not the place where I and Night Howling dumped earth and rock, and it would be too to make a special place for dumping earth and rocks in order to fix me and Night Howling, which is why I didn't doubt it yesterday, after all, there are so many people in the place where we dump earth and rock.

If we do, it will only mean that a shocking conspiracy has taken place on me and Nightscream, and the greater the price, the greater the plan, and the more surveillance we will be carrying.

I disguised myself as a wolf demon, and I was afraid that it had been exposed, so I had to ask more carefully.

Seeing that I was silent, the human almost shrunk into a ball and stood beside him, and the night howling had already begun to shout and curse, I asked the human again: "In this place, is it only me and my brother who are treated like this?" ”

"No, this is the way the foreman here rectifies the people, there are always some thorns who need to be rectified like this at the beginning, and they don't know it, but later they will understand, then it is much more honest." The man had been frightened by Nightscream's madness, and began to stammer in response to my words.

I didn't want to embarrass him anymore, so I nodded to him and said, "It's okay, you can go back first." ”

Relieved, he turned and ran down the path, and I took a deep breath and stopped him, shouting, "Wait." ”

He reluctantly turned around and smiled at me carefully, but I asked him an inexplicable question: "Tell me, how many people die every day at this construction site?" I mean humans. ”

The human thought that I was going to kill him, and tears flowed down his eyes at once, but he had to tremble and say: "It's not that people die every day, it's just that at the end of the year, every day, there are always 7 or 8 people who die, right?" Two adults, please don't kill me, my women are very capable of giving birth to children, I serve as laborers to raise so many children, I am not a slave, I am a quasi-civilian, I"

The human began to beg for mercy from me and Nightscream as he spoke, but I couldn't listen anymore, 7 or 8 people a day, so in a year, just in this place where the labor was, wouldn't 2,000 people have to die here poor people? Is this how human life is trampled on? Well, the anger in my heart has reached a level, and my steps are getting faster and faster.

Ye Xiao chased after me and asked loudly, "Big brother, what are you going to do?" What do you mean by that? ”

I paused, looked at Ye Xiao coldly, and said only four words: "For anger!" ”

According to Ye Xiao's IQ, he obviously didn't understand the meaning of my words, but the first time I looked at him with such eyes, he was obviously too scared to ask any more, and only dared to follow me cautiously.

I didn't care about the iron cart, and when I looked back, the yellow demon had really disappeared, so I naturally wouldn't care about it.

I just let this anger wash over my heart, the frightened faces of the humans here kept flashing in front of me, my body was not much fatter than that of an African refugee, my eyes were hot, I felt a depressed volcano burning in my eyes again, I started to run, in the wind, the howling of the night was getting farther and farther away from me.

I ran down the hill, where a large number of foremen gathered, and where the only road leading to the rest area of the labor quarters led to the rest area, where they stood by and did nothing but wait for the laborers to finish their work and check if they had any hidden ores.

After all, these things are popular in the surface world, and there is a lot of need for dungeons, and the accumulation is also wealth, and labor is definitely not allowed to hide privately.

The figure I rushed down naturally caught the attention of the foremen, and in the distance I heard their noisy voices and all sorts of laughter and scolding, the most of which was: "You see, there is a bastard who is not very obedient, and I bet he can't stand the toil of this servitude." ”

At this point, my pace slowed down, paused slightly, and adjusted my breathing.

I saw one of the foremen, the foreman in charge of the 10 teams, including me and Nightscream, looking at me coldly and cruelly, beside him, the yellow demon who had been injured by me was crying.

Obviously, the yellow demon has come down to inquire about our foreman's complaint.

With a slight smile on my lips, I walked step by step towards the foreman, who spat rudely and then said to the foremen around him in a loud voice: "Look, this is a poor fellow who has been driven mad, and he can't even be angry, and he starts giggling. But don't worry, I'll definitely clean up this guy. Hahaha"

His extremely rough words drew a burst of laughter from all the foremen.

I didn't care at all, but after I slowed down, the guy caught up with me and pulled me by the hand, "Big brother, let's go up." Heroes don't suffer immediate losses, don't annoy these foremen, we can't fight. ”

I turned my head to look at Ye Xiao, the anxiety and concern in his eyes was not a disguise.

I sighed softly in my heart, but I said, "It's okay, I'm not here to cause trouble, I'm here to reason with them, aren't you allowed to be reasonable?" Reasoning doesn't violate anything, right? ”

I mean it for Nightscream, but why not for the foremen? Sure enough, there was a burst of laughter, and the foreman who had been staring at me the whole time was already waving the whip in his hand.

At this time, he put away the whip in his hand and looked at me with a mocking and amusing look.

Nightwhine thought that I was really reasoning, and the foreman's reaction might be really reasonable, so he didn't worry so much. But he didn't leave, he still followed me closely.

Finally, I stood in front of the foreman, ignoring his gaze, but calmly glanced at the yellow demon, the yellow demon was looked at by me, and his legs were subconsciously clamped, as if he was about to pee out, and quickly hid behind the foreman.

But the foreman took out a cigarette butt, lit it with a cherished taste, and then took it in his mouth and said to me, "Fool, what reason are you here to tell me?" ”

As he spoke, he took a puff of his cigarette, looking drunk, and after exhaling the smoke, he suddenly spat at my face without warning.
