Chapter 43: Keep Your Eyes Open and Look at Me
It was late at night, and only Sanger lay on the ground, but he couldn't sleep.
Thinking of the words that Nalan Xingtian said just now, there was a faint surprise and worry in his heart, as well as a slight expectation.
If, if what he says really works, then we are all free.
Once living in the city did not feel the value of freedom, but now the successful slave prisoners are humiliated and tortured, and what they yearn for most at this moment is to leave this ghost place, find their wives, children, and parents, and then be with them forever.
The night was getting darker, the moonlight was like washing, Sange was tired, and before he knew it, he also fell asleep, he had a dream, in the dream Nalan Xingtian's plan was successful, they broke free from the cage, and he also found his family in the distant Seven Nations Alliance, without pain and tempering, only full of joy.
The next day, early in the morning, the sky was slightly bright.
The patrol soldiers arrived as usual, and with the crisp sound of leather whips, the slaves in the prison continued to walk out of the cells under the watchful watch of the guards and began their day's work.
Nalan Xingtian was also during this period, going back and forth to the mine to start transporting ore.
It was still morning, and the sun had not yet risen to the top of the sky.
The soldier on guard flicked his whip and shouted, "Bastards, it's time to eat." ”
The slaves in the gold mine cheered and put down their work.
It's still the unpalatable prison meal he's eaten, and the green paste doesn't know what it's made of, but it's been a month, and Nalan Xingtian is slowly getting used to the taste, at least he can fill his stomach.
Not far away, he saw Thomas, followed by slaves, and Thomas smiled at him.
Thomas took the bowl and stood still as he ate, and he ate quickly, and in a few bites he ate all the food in the bowl.
He dragged two bowls of the paste from the hands of the two slaves beside him, who had just begun to eat, but the rice bowls in their hands were snatched away, and they were about to be angry, when they found that the person who had come was Thomas, and his face was ugly and he did not say a word.
The two slaves stood up, looked around, and found Nalan Xingtian eating paste, and there was still most of the bowl of paste in the bowl, they glanced at each other, walked over, and were about to fight.
When Thomas saw this, he handed the bowl full of food he had snatched to the slave behind him, and a few people ran over.
He stretched out his fan-sized slap and slammed the back of the two slaves on the head, causing them to stagger one by one.
He said loudly: "Don't hit this little brother's attention, here in the future, he will be taken care of by me, get out." ”
The two slaves were indignant, knowing that they were no match for Thomas in this prison, and walked away with their heads bowed, looking for a new target for robbery.
When Thomas approached, Nalan found that there was a person behind him, who was so ordinary, and his appearance was ordinary, but his eyes were extraordinary.
A smile appeared on Thomas's face, and he reached out to retrieve the two bowls, one of which was handed to Nalan Xingtian, and said, "Little brother Nalan, eat one more bowl, and only when you are full will you have strength." ”
Nalan Xingtian was not polite, took it and poured half a bowl, and handed the remaining paste in the bowl to Sange casually.
"For me?" Sanger was a little surprised.
"Eat it for you, don't grind. Nalan Xingtian said.
Sanger glanced at Nalan Xingtian, took the bowl, and said warmly in his heart, "Thank you." ”
"Yes, little brother, how about you do the one you said later?" asked Thomas.
"It's not started yet, I'm waiting. Nalan Xingtian replied.
"What are you waiting for?" asked Thomas.
"When the time is right, I need you to do me a favor. Nalan Xingtian looked into Thomas's eyes and said.
"What's the hurry?" asked Thomas.
"I need a hare, to live. Nalan Xingtian made his own request.
"Hare, alive?" Thomas's heart was full of doubts, and he glanced at Nalan Xingtian with some suspicion, "Little brother, if you can do it, then it's naturally easy to say." If you can't do anything else, don't talk big about it just because you want to eat meat, and you can't afford the methods of my Thomas in this prison. ”
"I don't have the ability to do anything, and I don't talk big, you help me find a hare, and if I can't do it, you can do whatever you want. Nalan Xingtian met Thomas's gaze and said seriously.
"Okay, it's just a hare, I believe you once, but you need to remember that you only have this one chance. Thomas grinned, revealing Sensen's white teeth, "If you cheat on me, there's no future, you know?"
Nalan Xingtian's expression was calm, he ignored Thomas's threatening words, and asked again, "Hare, when will there be?"
"Ron. Thomas snapped his fingers.
The ordinary-looking elf-looking slave who followed behind him stepped forward and replied respectfully, "Boss Thomas." ”
"Do as the little brother says, hare, live, the sooner the better. Thomas commanded.
"Okay. Ron retreated.
Nalan Xingtian watched Ron walk away and asked, "Can he guarantee to catch a live hare right away?"
Thomas looked around, the patrolling soldiers had already gone away, and he lowered his voice and said: "His name is Ron, nicknamed Ron, Thousand-Handed Ron, his profession is a thief, it means that he has hands all over his body, he is not only good at stealing, but also good at laying some barricade traps, catching a rabbit is not a difficult task for him." And about getting the key, it's basically up to him. ”
Nalan Xingtian nodded, and had a new understanding of this plan in his heart, with someone like Ron, the chances of success were much higher.
Nalan Xingtian lowered his head and ate the food in this bowl, and after eating the paste in the bowl, Nalan Xingtian felt that today was the fullest he had eaten in so many days, although the taste was bitter, but the feeling of fullness made him burp.
"I'm curious, what method would you use?" asked Thomas.
"You are very strong, looking at the way the slaves around you are afraid of you, you are very powerful, and you should have some means. Nalan Xingtian said this, and the words changed, "However, there is a specialization in the art industry, just like you can't get the key without that thousand-handed Ron, without me, you will lack the best method and opportunity, as for what I can do, I'm sorry, it's a secret, and it's inconvenient to reveal." ”
Thomas narrowed his eyes: "There is a specialization in the art industry, the first time I heard this, it was a little interesting, whether what you said was true or not, whether you could do it or not, but at least your mouth and kung fu were good." ”
"Keep your eyes open and look at me. Nalan Xingtian smiled, and that smile was proud.
"You want to provoke me?" said Thomas, making a fierce gesture.
"Dear Mr. Thomas Donne, if the slightest word of confidence will anger you, it will only prove that you are too small. But I think that a substantial boss in a prison should be more than just this measure, your anger is just to preserve your dignity, and by the way to test my reaction, am I right?" Nalan stood still, looking up at Thomas's fierce gaze.
Thomas's fierce expression slowly faded, and he pulled out a big smile and said, "I find myself liking you more and more, boy. ”
