Chapter 330: Refining Shark and Boiling Oil
"Yes, what's wrong?" Fu Heng didn't know why, and his face was at a loss.
Lao Qin didn't answer, lowered his head and continued to search for star sand.
"Ah......h
Another scream came, Lao Qin turned a deaf ear, but Fu Heng couldn't sit still, got up and said, "Go and see what's going on?"
Several other people at the mouth of the spring also felt strange, nodded, and followed Fu Heng to the direction where the voice came from. Lao Qin was agitated and said loudly: "Don't, don't go." ”
"How?"
For Lao Qin, Fu Heng and others are still very respectful, he is an old man here, everyone has just arrived, thanks to the careful guidance of the other party, whether it is the technique of Taoxing Sand, or the survival skills of choosing to live in caves and identifying food, everything is explained to everyone very clearly.
It's just that this time everyone looked at Lao Qin suspiciously, but he couldn't speak.
"Ah......h
The screams sounded again, and this time continuously, very terrifying, everyone was impatient to wait for Lao Qin to give an explanation, and continued to walk in the direction where the sound came from, Fu Heng took a deep look at Lao Qin, and found that he still wanted to stop him, but he didn't know what to say, so he hesitated for a while and followed everyone.
Actually, it's not very far, just over a rock.
This is Tong Ba's territory, they occupy several springs with the largest amount of minerals, and Fu Heng and other stragglers dare not approach. Driven by curiosity this time, they climbed up one after another and watched from afar, but they didn't want to see a shocking scene.
They were four huge urns, and I don't know where they got them, and the water in them was boiling. Tong Ba was not there, Zhang Fabai was commanding several of Tong Ba's subordinates to put the Quanke captured yesterday into it and boil them alive.
"What are you doing?"
Fu Heng shouted angrily, and Lao Qin, who came with him, couldn't stop him.
Zhang Fabai seemed to have just seen them, and said nonchalantly: "What are you doing? Of course, it's boiling shark oil, which is the best fuel, much stronger than those wet wood that only smokes but doesn't emit fire." ”
"How can you boil oil from a living person?" Fu Heng's eyes widened.
He has a good background, and all he has seen since he was a child is poetry, books, etiquette and music, and he only fell into the Eastern Wilderness after the family changed, and he was assigned here before he saw the cruelty of reality.
And most of the people who were sent here with him were guilty of colluding with demons. There is no capital crime in Donghuang, and it is indeed serious that this crime can be distributed, but most of them are people who are reluctant to leave their relatives and friends like Fu Heng.
After getting along with these people for a long time, it is naturally difficult to see the extreme evil in the world.
Yesterday's robbery with people was already beyond his cognition, and at this time, such a horrific thing as refining oil with a living person appeared in front of him, how could Fu Heng be calm.
"Live, man?"
Zhang Fabai kicked a petite merman out of the queue, looked at Fu Heng with an unkind face, and said, "Why do you look at what this thing looks like a human?"
In fact, Zhang Fabai's words are a bit far-fetched, although Quanke is called the Beihai mermaid, but it is still different from the mermaid who dragged the fishtail on the other side of the South China Sea, they are closer to the image of humans, sound limbs, delicate facial features, and the webbing between the ten fingers and ten toes have completely disappeared. Even because the skin is more delicate than human, it is like a fine satin, and people can't help but want to reach out and caress it.
However, as outliers, they still have obvious differences from humans in appearance, such as their azure eyes and hair color, their ears that resemble fish fins, the scales the size of fingernails on their legs, and the long fins that extend from their heels to the crooks of their legs.
Fu Heng said that if it were a human being, he could condemn it, share the hatred with everyone, and stop this kind of behavior, but if it was not human, it would be ......
"Killing people is not enough, even if these aliens deserve to die, they can be cut with a knife, and the corpses can be buried or refined with you, so cooking them alive is a little cruel to the aliens. ”
It was another onlooker who spoke, Fu Heng recognized him, his name was Kuang Hao, he had been here for more than three years, and he was an old man here.
As an old man, he has his own prestige, so as soon as the words came out, the onlookers echoed and shouted, expressing their dissatisfaction with Tong Ba and his gang.
"Cruel, ahhh ”
Kuang Hao has a strong figure, a powerful appearance, and a group of people who have a strong voice for him, which is indeed more pressure on Zhang Fabai than Fu Hengshi's lonely appearance, but Zhang Fabai is not afraid of them because of Tong Ba's support, and shouts loudly, suppressing the voices of the crowd.
"Anyway, it's an anomaly, no matter how you kill, it's not all killing, as far as your benevolence and morality are concerned, we are extremely vicious. Who are we for?"
"The cold season is coming soon, how do you get through it?
"Enough flaming stones from those cubs in the Ice Castle?"
"Okay, so benevolent, don't use all this shark oil, freeze your group of dogs. Talk to you about benevolence and righteousness, phew. ”
“......”
After Zhang Fabai scolded, everyone was silent, although they were not angry in their hearts, but they also knew that what Zhang Fabai said was the truth, and there was no way to argue, and they knew that it was terrible when the cold season under the big glacier came.
Kuang Hao felt that it was not very interesting to watch Zhang Fabai's performance here, so he snorted coldly, turned around and left, losing the leader, and everyone else also turned around and left, leaving only Zhang Fabai, who was arrogant and like a fighting rooster.
Fu Heng had the heart to argue a few more sentences, but was stopped and dragged away by Lao Qin. Listening to the screams that continued to sound behind him, his face was very bad.
"Why the hell are they doing this?" Back at the spring, Fu Heng still couldn't suppress the anger in his heart.
Lao Qin sighed and said, "In order to maximize benefits." ”
"Profit maximization?"
"When these mermaids cry in pain, they will naturally cry shark beads, and the value of shark beads is different, I will tell you again. Lao Qin's face also had a hint of unbearability, but it was more helpless, even he might not be able to survive well in these years, how could he have the leisure to feel pity for other aliens.
"Just for this?" Fu Heng's eyes were a little red, obviously angry to the extreme.
Lao Qin knew that Fu Heng had just arrived, and he was still enthusiastic, and when he saw this situation, he couldn't help but feel compassion in his heart, so he patted him on the shoulder and said: "No way, the world is like this, it can't be changed, you can only see it out of sight." ”
"Lao Qin, I ......"
Fu Heng still had something to say, but Lao Qin knew what he wanted to say and interrupted: "If you don't have enough fuel, a cold season can kill most of us?" You were tired all day last night, so let's go take a bath on the Ice Tooth Rock, rest and rest, and I'll do the rest of the work." ”
Fu Heng's eyes gradually dimmed, he closed his mouth and stopped speaking, and slowly turned to leave, seeing Lao Qin sigh for a while.
He walked slowly for a while, and he didn't know where to go, although his supernatural powers were sealed, his physical fitness was still far better than that of ordinary people, he didn't sleep all night, and he didn't feel how tired, and he really came to the bottom of the ice tooth rock while walking.
This is a flying rock that stretches out of the great glacier to the island of Weihu Island, and you can jump over it by jumping over a short section of the rushing water, and climb up this cliff to reach a natural hot spring, where a bath can make people feel refreshed, and it is one of the few entertainment items in this desolate mining area.
This was originally the place where Lao Qin found out, and later he became acquainted with Lao Qin, and he was also brought here a few times, which was regarded as a secret base for the two of them.
If it comes, it will be safe.
Fu Heng put down other thoughts, visually measured the distance between the two sides, and was about to jump over, but when he heard a running sound behind him, he couldn't help but stop his movements strangely and looked at the place where the sound came from.
There a merman child ran out in a panic, and was startled when he saw him standing there, and stumbled under his feet, and was rushing in front of him.
Fu Heng subconsciously wanted to help him, but he heard a scolding sound coming from behind him, and from a distance, it turned out to be two mining slaves under Tong Ba, and it turned out that there were chasing soldiers behind this merman child.
In last night's battle, although they killed dozens of mermaids and captured dozens of prisoners, most of them fled compared to a large tribe of hundreds of people, this should be the fish that slipped through the net last night, but I didn't expect Tong Ba to send his men to catch them.
Thinking of Lao Qin's words, Fu Heng couldn't help but slowly withdraw his hand even though he couldn't bear it in his heart, and he couldn't even bear to look directly at the little merman's eyes asking for help.
"Help, help......"
A faint voice sounded in Fu Heng's ears, shocking his whole heart, this little merman actually spoke a human language, and he could actually speak human words.
