Earth epoch 3300 years.

Next to the solar system, the Yellow Wind System, a silver-black planet.

The perspective moved to the near side of the planet, pulling to a place in the south of the planet, where many naked figures were tapping on the ground, and there was a faint sound of "ding-ding".

Syllable!

A crisp whip sounded in the air, causing everyone to stop their movements and look at each other.

Under the whip, Yang Yuan's leaning body was in pain, and his legs directly lost strength and knelt on the ground, and the blood on his knees seeped into the sharp and fine gravel.

"Hurry up! I haven't eaten at noon, you! Hurry up and work for me!!"

The shouts fell, and several more lashes were lashed at him, leaving a few more streaks on his brown skin, and numerous scars scattered disheveledly across his back.

Yang Yuan gritted his teeth, pressed his hands on the ground and slowly straightened them, supporting himself to get up.

As soon as his knees left the ground, there was a feeling of weakness in his arms, causing his whole body to lie heavily on the gravel, kicking up puffs of dust.

"Waste!What do you do every day besides wasting food?!"

At these words, Yang Yuan's fists clenched tightly when he touched the ground, and he subconsciously let go.

A trace of rebellion, he didn't dare to show it.

It's just that no one noticed his eyes, which were full of fortitude.

Syllable!!

The person next to him waved his right hand holding the whip again, raised his head with a gloomy face, and looked around: "What do you see, do you want to be lazy? Do you also want to be beaten?"

The crowd bowed their heads in panic and habitually struck the ground rocks with pickaxes and hoes.

This is a silver fruit mine, an area of nearly 8,000 square meters of square open-pit mine, the mine is surrounded by a four-meter-high composite wall, one side of the wall has a steel-plastic door, the other three sides are impermeable.

Silver fruit, a versatile energy source.

About three years ago, Yang Yuan was expelled from Earth and sent to the Silver Yuan Star with hundreds of people to work as coolies, living a slave-like life every day.

Getting up with difficulty, looking at the overseers who were patrolling around, and the many naked coolies, as well as the tightly closed wall door, Yang Yuanqiang held back his tears and continued to dig.

Time passed quietly for three hours.

Ding Ding Ding –

In the distance, on a three-meter-high stone surveillance tower, an overseer kept shaking the bell in his hand.

The ordinary ringtone can no longer be ordinary, but it is like a natural sound in everyone's ears.

The coolies, who had been scattered around, skillfully pinning their pickaxes to the thick hemp rope wrapped around their waists, and holding a small basket, scrambled to the row of large tents at the edge of the wall.

Yang Yuan looked at the back basket beside him, there were several fist-sized silver stones in it, sighed silently, and looked around, as if he was looking for something.

"Brother Yuan, you're fine, right?"

A sound of concern came from behind him, and when he turned his head, a young man of about seventeen years old walked briskly with a basket.

This young man is as old as him, and even slightly taller than him, but he willingly calls him "Brother Yuan", not for anything else, just because of his intelligence.

"It's okay, I'm used to it. While Yang Yuan lifted his shoulders up, he rotated his neck sideways from side to side a few times, relaxed his body, and signaled that he was fine.

Only the bright red and purple long marks behind him tell the unwillingness in my heart.

"Did you dig so little?" the boy looked at the few stones in his basket, thought for a moment, and took a few from his basket to put them in.

Seeing this, Yang Yuan hurriedly stretched out his hand to stop it.

The young man blocked his hand, put it in directly, and said indifferently: "I dug up so many silver fruits, and I can't eat all the rice balls I exchanged, so instead of cheapening those beasts, it is better to let you eat more rice." ”

With that, the boy walked to a tent on the edge.

Helplessly, Yang Yuan also followed.

The tent is the place where rice balls are distributed, and the hard workers in the mine depend on these rice balls to survive.

The people in front quickly took away the rice balls, and it was Yang Yuan's turn.

He walked over to a table, lifted the small basket, poured the silver fruit into the large box on the table, and then looked at the fat man in the flower coat on the other side of the table.

The man in the flower clothes picked at the dirty teeth with his fingers, pulled out a slender strand of meat, flicked it on the ground, smacked his mouth a few times, reached into the box beside him expressionlessly, and took out a fist-sized rice ball and threw it to him.

Yang Yuan moved slightly, stepped forward with his left foot, held his hands together, accurately caught the rice ball, and continued to look at the man in flowers.

After throwing the rice balls, the flower-clothed man raised his head and kept squirming his nostrils with his little finger, looking like he was enjoying it, ignoring him at all.

After both nostrils were served, Huayi glanced at it and said impatiently: "What, you still don't leave, what are you doing standing here!!"

Yang Yuan hesitated for a moment, picked up the rice ball in his hand and said, "You only gave me one." ”

"Bang!"

The man in the flower clothes slapped the table disgustingly, shook the box up an inch high, pointed at him and scolded: "You don't look at your efficiency, it's only nine silver fruits in an afternoon? It's good to give you a rice ball, hurry up and get out of here!"

Saliva spurted all over the ground.

Yang Yuan glared at him for a moment, his fist clucking.

The man in flower clothes didn't care, and even sneered: "What's the matter?

The green tendons on Yang Yuan's fist appeared, but they slowly merged into the flesh and blood, and he walked back, not knowing that the entire rice ball had been pasted in his hand.

Even though he was humiliated, even though he was angry.

He also ...... Don't dare to resist.

Moreover, there is no power to resist.

The result of the rebellion is death!

The man in flower clothes looked at his back and said contemptuously: "Phew! It's just a bad seed, I thought it was best to starve to death." ”

Yang Yuan at the door paused and continued to walk.

Outside the tent, the previous boy saw him like this, and hurriedly handed him the two rice balls in half, but he refused.

The two sat on a small pile of rocks in the mine, munching on rice balls as they watched the chattering workers around them.

This evening is a rare time for them to relax.

"Jiang Sheng, have you ever thought about leaving here?" After swallowing the food in a few bites, Yang Yuan looked at the gradually dimming sky, and there was a ...... in his eyes Meaningful.

"Leave here, Brother Yuan, don't laugh, we who have been expelled, we have no other thoughts after entering here. The boy known as Jiang Sheng swallowed another rice ball in one gulp, as if to laugh at himself.

After a long silence, Yang Yuan spoke again: "What if, we escape?"

Jiang Sheng, who was on the side of the "escape ?!!", widened his eyes, opened his mouth, revealing the unfinished white substance inside, turned his head to look at him mechanically, and then looked around, and found that no one was paying attention to them, so he approached him and whispered: "Brother Yuan, you will not make this kind of joke in the future, if they hear it, we will die." ”

Jiang Sheng came back to his senses, he remembered that on the night when he first came to this planet three years ago, a person escaped, only to be caught by the patrol and beaten to death, and his body was exposed to the sun for three days.

"Jiang Sheng, I'm not kidding. Yang Yuan replied calmly, then looked in one direction and continued: "Look at the direction of the wall gate, that guard will open the door every night to go out for a small break, as long as we seize the time when he opens the door, we will have a chance to run out."

"You're crazy!!" Jiang Sheng glanced in that direction, next to the only door of the mine prison, on a three-meter-high stone tower, a white-armored soldier holding a laser gun glanced at them from time to time.

When the guard withdrew his gaze, Jiang Sheng looked at the total eight guard towers on the four sides of the mine, and spoke again: "Don't you see so many guard towers around? Even if he is missing, our every move will be closely monitored, and if there is any abnormal movement, we will be shot to death." ”

As if he had already expected Jiang Sheng's words, Yang Yuan said unhurriedly: "Look, what is this?"

As he spoke, he walked down the stone pile at will, and when no one paid attention to it, he quietly wiped away the gravel on the ground, revealing a large thin stone block below, and moved the thin stone block away, and a passage half a meter wide and deep appeared below.

Before Jiang Sheng could speak, he hurriedly covered it with a thin stone block and covered it with a thick layer of gravel.

"This is ......" Jiang Sheng slowly slid down from the pile of stones with a pale expression, staring at his face in fear.

"The passage I've dug in recent months has been winding not far in front of that guard tower. As he spoke, Yang Yuan looked in the previous direction again.

"How did you dig it?"

"Of course, I dug it quietly when I was digging the silver fruit, otherwise why do you think I dig so little every time I dig the silver fruit?"

"No, I mean how you dug it?"

"The rocky ground of this mine is a whole whole, as long as you dig a pit half a meter deep here, and then continue to dig another pit ten centimeters away, and then dig up from the inside of the two pits and dig the two pits together, and the surface connecting the two pits is not dug up. After that, just repeat the above steps to expand the channel. ”

"How did the thin stone that covered the pit come from?"

"As I told you, the surface of this mine is a huge rock monolith, not to mention that if you dig and polish a thin stone from it, even if you carve a human figure, you can do it perfectly. ”

After listening to Yang Yuan's words, Jiang Sheng suddenly realized that indeed, Yang Yuan's method worked.

Moreover, there are rules for everyone to mine silver fruit in this mine, that is, everyone will mine according to a fixed line, because the silver fruit is distributed on the surface in veins, so no one will dig randomly and dig into the channel.

It took a long time for his heart to calm down, and there was a bit of awe in Jiang Sheng's eyes when he looked at Yang Yuan.

"However, outside of this mine, there are still patrols outside. ”

"There are rocks standing outside the mine, and we have a chance to escape. Well, are you going to gamble your life for your freedom?"

Yang Yuan looked at Jiang Sheng calmly.

Gambling with one's life on freedom may be costly to others, but for Yang Yuan, isn't it hell here?

......

Soon, it was getting dark.

The night temperature of the Silver Dollar Star is high, and there is no harsh environment - except that the stars are full of silver rocks, so the mine workers sleep on the spot, on the ground full of rubble.

Tonight, Jiang Sheng deliberately slept with Yang Yuan, and he had a choice to escape with Yang Yuan.

In the middle of the night, the entire planet was pitch black, except for a few light drones roaming over the mine, emitting a soft white light to the mine.

A soft white light swept across Yang Yuan's sleeping face and swept away.

When several drones were far away from here, and the lights were the darkest here, Yang Yuan suddenly opened his eyes, quietly turned his head to look around, and found that there were no guards paying attention to him, and his right hand gently brushed away the gravel on the ground, revealing the two large stones below, and then kept a sleeping position, slowly moved the two stones away, moved his body to the stones, and turned sideways into the passage.

Then, Jiang Sheng on the side also quietly moved around and entered the passage.

The drone continued to patrol other places, and the eight people guarding the tower were also absent-minded and did not pay attention to the disappearance of Yang Yuan and the others.

Although the passage is only half a meter wide and high, it is completely permissible for one person to travel.

A minute later.

At the end of the passage, the rubble on its floor moved gently upward, and a pair of eyes emerged from the gap below.

Directly in front of the eye is a guard tower.

The man on the guard tower got down the ladder listlessly, went to the edge of the wall, pushed the door and walked out, the other people on the guard tower had long been accustomed to this person's behavior, just glanced at the open door, and turned away.

Yang Yuan just wanted to jump out, but he suddenly retracted his body and covered his head with the stone slab.

Overhead, a drone suddenly flew over and hovered here.

He carefully kept the voyeurism going, and then Jiang Sheng was even more covered in cold sweat.

Time ticks, about thirty seconds.

Seeing that the guard who left the guard was about to return.

At this moment, a drone on the side turned around and swept straight towards their original sleeping position.

There, there was a hole, the entrance to the passage where they were.

The drone swings its lights and is about to shine on the hole.

The guards' gaze moved with the light.

The light was five meters away from the hole.

Four meters away.

Three meters away.

Two...... The drone, turned, and flew elsewhere.

The light is soft, and it is difficult to illuminate the line of sight from two meters away.

Heaven also prayed for Yang Yuan.
