Chapter 120: Awakening
The food delivery guard surnamed Han was so frightened that he was reluctant to get close to the cell door, so the task of delivering food naturally fell to Xuan Zijun, or Xiao Xuan. For most of the guards here, there are only two options: the first is to continue the humiliating behavior of the previous one, feeding the porridge mixed with urine to the submissive prisoners; The second option is to swap the bucket of porridge with the porridge sent to other cells, so that the prisoners will not have a problem.
But Xiao Xuan chose the third option: he threw out the bucket of porridge and returned to the kitchen to let the slave worker who cooked it boil a new bucket of porridge. During this period, Zhang Yuan sat and drank porridge while chatting with the spirit of the plug-in.
"You asked the little boy a question, and he clearly replied that the previous boss did not resist such a thing at all, and the reward for obedience was that the boss alone could drink porridge without ingredients. Did you swell after beating a few prisoners, and just now you were so reckless that you directly did it to the guards. ”
Zhang Yuan listened to the words of the Plug-in Spirit, took the time to drink porridge and thought for a while, and replied: "There is one thing to say and one is true, but I just don't want to drink porridge mixed with urine." Even if I could trade my identity as the boss for a mouthful of porridge without ingredients, I couldn't prevent them from doing this kind of thing in a place I couldn't see. ”
"You can't prevent it now." The Plug-in Spirit immediately retorted.
"Indeed." Zhang Yuan smiled dumbly, "But I believe in that Xuan Zijun, although I don't know where this trust comes from." You remember me, when we were brought here, we saw him for the first time, and from then on I found out that he was a man of all eyes. When the prisoner here told me that the former boss had escaped from prison after bribing the head of the guards through someone outside, I was even more sure that this guard with a sense of justice and the head of the guard who wanted to kill me were not all the way. ”
The spirit of the plug-in didn't reply for a while, it seemed that this guy also needed to think, and after a moment it replied, "Can you just judge that the other party is trustworthy based on your own imagination?" Trust is such a strange thing, and unfortunately I can't understand it at all. But then again, the way you just said that sentence is really a little handsome! ”
"Well, which one?" Zhang Yuan asked rhetorically with a question mark on his face.
"Just that, you seem a little overwhelmed, why, don't you think it's a little bit like what you can say?"
When Zhang Yuan heard the spirit of the plug-in say this, a feeling of social death instantly surged up, and he almost squirted out a mouthful of porridge, and quickly explained: "That's just the words that I used to use to ridicule others when playing games, especially when I played a certain medicine and my college roommate solo, I would mock the other side like this every time." Maybe I'm too used to it, and I just said it as a mantra, and you can understand that I was too nervous to speak without a brain, and I said whatever I thought. ”
"Hehe, by the way, have you thought of a countermeasure, what are you going to do if those guards directly make a fuss about this matter and execute you for assaulting the guards?" The Plug-in Spirit asked suddenly.
"I don't think so much, and if you're going to make me drink that stuff from tomorrow, I'd rather die. But when you say that, I think you really have to think about what if they take advantage of it. Zhang Yuan thought about it while drinking porridge, and after thinking about it for a while, he didn't come up with a reason.
Zhang Yuan was chatting with the spirit of the plug-in, and suddenly noticed that the prisoners around him were running towards the door, and he noticed that it was Xiao Xuan who had returned with porridge. Xuan Zijun was not at all impressed by the "pre-dinner etiquette" that the other guards were happy with, he squatted directly on the ground, picked up a spoon and a wooden bowl and began to scoop porridge for the prisoners crowded at the door.
At this time, a caretaker came over with a cart dragging a rice bucket in one hand and a rice spoon in the other, which was attached to the iron railing along the road, colliding back and forth between the railings, and constantly making the sound of bells and bells. The guard had just finished delivering the food and was walking back, and many people in the cell where he had delivered the food had just followed him, and it took him half a day to shut up the prisoners, and the proof of his efforts was the blood stains on his side face.
The guard glanced at Xiao Xuan who was squatting there scooping food with disdain, this junior was really unreasonable, he had such a good attitude towards the prisoners, if he had brought food here, he would have dragged out the person who took the lead in making trouble and cut it down. Thinking of this, the guard let go of the cart, threw the wooden spoon in his hand into the rice bucket, and turned to walk in the direction he was coming from.
Xiao Xuan was adding porridge to the bowl here, when an unknown object suddenly flew next to him and fell into the rice bucket containing the porridge, although it didn't splash the porridge everywhere, it also startled Xiao Xuan. Xiao Xuan, who reacted, hurriedly stretched his head above the porridge bucket to see what it was, but saw a bloody human ear floating on the porridge surface.
The human ear would definitely not fall into the porridge bucket for no reason, Xiao Xuan quickly picked out the human ear with a spoon, threw it on the ground on the side, and then looked in the direction where the ear had just flown over. The mischief was played by the guard, who turned back to pick up the freshly cut off ear from the ground.
Xiao Xuan stared at the guard who was still smiling evilly, and the latter glared at Xiao Xuan when he saw this, and said jokingly: "What, do you like the gift I gave?" One of my prisoners laughed so loudly that I lectured him a little, and guess what, he screamed as loud as he laughed. ”
The guard laughed out loud after speaking, and Xiao Xuan immediately got up from the ground and reprimanded loudly: "How can you do this to the slaves here, they are slaves, not prisoners!" How can you, how can you ......"
Before Xiao Xuan finished speaking, the guard on the opposite side rushed up and grabbed him by the collar, pulling Xiao Xuan's face in front of him, and the tip of his nose against the tip of his nose: "Slave labor? Didn't you wake up? Listen to the labor, this is not the slave labor you are talking about! All of them were prisoners, and they had been sent here because of a crime! ”
The guard kept poking Xiao Xuan's chest with his fingers as he spoke, and the latter kept staring at his face with a hint of not admitting defeat in his eyes. The angry guard let go of Xiao Xuan's collar, pushed him to the ground, and pointed and scolded: "It's because of you stupid that you have made so many shitty things." What a day full of slave labor, they are a bunch of despicable prisoners, before they were locked up here, they were thieves, they were rapists, they were robbers, they were all losers in this world! Only a fool like you would be merciful to them, and if it were me, I would have dragged that guy out and slashed it a long time ago. ”
After the guard finished speaking, he snorted, kicked his ears off the ground, and pulled the cart behind him to leave next to Xiao Xuan. Of course, when passing by Zhang Yuan's cell, he didn't forget to raise his middle finger high at the prisoners in the cell. Zhang Yuan turned his attention to the conflict outside as early as possible, and he really heard what the guard said just now, the guy the other party said was obviously referring to himself, and this middle finger seemed to be specially compared to himself.
For a moment, Zhang Yuan felt a cold electric current spread from his heart, quickly transmitted to his limbs, and then flowed towards the ends of his limbs, until every peripheral nerve was like falling into an ice cave. Although he was on the battlefield twice, Zhang Yuan still did not get rid of his instinctive fear of death and injury, and when the guard spoke, he really had a killing intent, so between being angry and afraid, Zhang Yuan felt that he was still a little more afraid.
"Your body just shook so much, are you scared or angry?" The spirit of the plug-in also sensed Zhang Yuan's strong negative emotions and hurriedly asked.
"I'm afraid." Zhang Yuan lowered his head and admitted his fear, and the bloody scenes he had seen after coming to this world began to flash in front of his eyes again, the still bleeding corpses in Hanse's prison, and the students who were killed on the college road...... He had never mentioned this fear of corpses to anyone, because he really didn't know who to talk to about this matter except Chengge, but Zhang Yuan lacked the courage to drive this kind of thing by seeking enlightenment from a woman younger than himself.
"It turns out that you don't care about it, but if you really want it, you will still feel scared at this time." The spirit of the plug-in said in a slightly mocking tone, but Zhang Yuan couldn't see the face of this thing anyway, so he just thought that the other party had no feelings.
"There is no way to do this, after all, thinking rationally and experiencing it with emotion are still different. In my mind, I only think it's handsome to fight and kill, but when I really have to face the scene of life and death, I don't think it's enough to give me two more hearts. Zhang Yuan took a deep breath, calmed his mood, and justified himself in his heart.
"It seems that you are indeed better enough to say such logical things. But why don't you eat those two breads in your hands, and don't you get hungry just by drinking a bowl of porridge. In order not to expand the negative pressure in Zhang Yuan's heart, the spirit of the plug-in didn't plan to talk about this topic anymore, and instead brought up the dinner in Zhang Yuan's hand.
Zhang Yuan looked at the two black loaves in his hand, this thing was originally unappetizing, and Zhang Yuan was not in a good state now, so he couldn't eat these two black breads at all.
"No appetite." Zhang Yuan lifted his legs onto the sofa with his hands, maintaining a cross-legged sitting posture, his mind was now in turmoil, and he couldn't sort out a complete thought in his mind at all. It's not that the matter of being locked in bothered Zhang Yuan a lot, mainly because after sitting here and having nothing to do, he began to recall the experience after coming to this world. The result of the recollection was that Zhang Yuan found that he hadn't done anything so far, which made him feel empty and dazed.
In the old days, there were families and schools, and they would tell themselves what to do and what the benefits of doing this kind of thing were. Although this feeling of being pushed by others to do everything is not good, it is ultimately on the established trajectory, and the goals and steps do not need to worry about how to do it, but only need to produce results according to the requirements.
Now Zhang Yuan knows how important the guidance of his elders was in the past, but at that time, he didn't know how to cherish it at all, but he felt a deep hatred for the rules and regulations that bound him, and wanted to break free from them at any time. After coming to the New World for so long, and after the novelty completely disappeared, Zhang Yuan realized that he really needed to plan his future.
This is not the first time that he has felt malice from this world, and it will not be the last, Zhang Yuan clenched the black bread in his hand hard. If you want to gain a foothold in this world where you have no one to rely on, and if you want to use your own strength to protect the people around you, you must become stronger.
It's not just a way to get out of here.
