"Boss, I'm back." Shen Cheng carried a bucket of water and trotted all the way back to the underground meeting point. At this time, Zhang Yuan and the others were all sitting in place and closing their eyes to recuperate, after all, they had been busy here for so long, and everyone had not long woken up from a coma, and now they were all exhausted.

Zhang Yuan heard Shen Ying's shout, and as soon as he opened his eyes in a daze, he heard Tai Meng shouting next to him: "Shen Ying, you're back!" Wake up, everyone, boss, boss, Shen Cheng is back! ”

"Shut up, I hear you." Zhang Yuan was so sleepy by this mess that he went out for a walk after Shen Cheng left, trying his luck in the neighborhood to see if he could find a living person or a mine hoe that fell on the ground. As a result, after less than half an hour of activity, Zhang Yuan felt that his upper and lower eyelids were constantly fighting, so he could only take Tai Meng back to rest first.

Zhang Yuan looked at the bucket in Shen Cheng's hand, it was obviously not something found in this mine, and he couldn't help asking, "Why did you come back so soon?" ”

"It's not too fast, I guess it will be dawn when we all go up. But the guards were sleeping like pigs now, and they could take whatever I wanted, without any delay. Shen Cheng said and handed the bucket of water to Zhang Yuan, and at the same time took out a few black breads from his arms.

Zhang Yuan took the bucket and looked inside, and by the faint light, he could vaguely see the soil sinking to the bottom of the water. In fact, under normal circumstances, Zhang Yuan would never want to drink this kind of water, but after glancing at the people around him who were waiting for him to drink first, Zhang Yuan could only hold the bucket and drink it.

I don't drink the water on the top, and when everyone finishes drinking it later, we can only drink the muddy water below.

After pouring a mouthful of water, Zhang Yuan wiped the corners of his mouth with his sleeve, and then reached out to take a piece of black bread and nibbled on it. When Shen Cheng came down, he naturally changed back to the dirty clothes he wore when he went up, but Zhang Yuan drank all the dirty water, and eating some dirty bread was nothing.

The others were also hungry, where was the rotting cricket breast meat that the few people had eaten before, and the whole person felt uncomfortable after eating that kind of raw meat, how could there be a serious food like black bread to eat refreshingly.

Seeing the few people in front of him gobbling up the food, Shen Ying said: "Okay, boss, let's hurry up and go up, the guards outside should get up later, and it won't be so easy to go out when the time comes." ”

Zhang Yuan nodded, stood up and greeted the others, and the iron head, who had not finished eating the bread, quickly stuffed the two black breads in his hand into his mouth, patted his ass and stood up.

The unconscious prisoner still didn't carry it, and the first person to find it was Tai Meng, who wanted to take the initiative to carry the man on his back, but leaned over and took his finger to probe, only to find that the other party was not breathing. Tai Meng was taken aback, and hurriedly used Zhang Yuan's method to feel the pulse, only to find that the other party didn't know when he was gone.

"Boss, he, he didn't hold up." Tai Meng watched a potential partner disappear in such an unknown way, and his mood was also a little low.

"Well, it doesn't matter, it's not your fault, and it's not the fault of any of us. But we'll avenge him someday, and we'll have to put him here for now. I'm sorry, bro. When Zhang Yuan said this, he closed his eyes and mourned in silence, and his hatred for the guard leader in his heart was a little more.

"I know, but we went to great lengths to bring him here...... I thought at the time that I would have one more person to talk to in the future, and if he could wake up, he would be a very good joker. After Tai Meng finished speaking, he also followed Zhang Yuan's example, closed his eyes and mourned silently for the dead prisoner.

"Okay, it's time to go, Shen Cheng said that now is the most suitable time to leave, you have to hurry."

The group followed Shen Cheng and returned to the previous mine, Zhang Yuan pointed to the rope that hung down and said, "Is this the rope you prepared, is it hanging down from the ground, why is it just long enough?" ”

"I measured it with the Pathfinder when I went up, and I know roughly how long the route is. When I was in the mine warehouse, I found a very long rope, longer than the way I had to go up, and I cut a section from it. ”

Zhang Yuan stretched out his hand and tugged at the rope that Shen Cheng had brought back, and said, "It's quite strong, Shen Cheng, you go first." ”

Shen Cheng nodded, didn't speak, and climbed up directly along the rope, leaving only Zhang Yuan to look at the soles of his feet below. After a while, Zhang Yuan suddenly turned his head to Tietou and said, "Tietou, hold me up below." ”

"Okay." The iron head said something in a muffled voice, but Tai Meng didn't hold back next to him, and laughed out loud.

"What are you laughing at, is it funny?" Zhang Yuan blushed and scolded, who told him that he couldn't climb up the slippery rope.

Stepping on the shoulders of the iron head, Zhang Yuancai got into the hole, and it was much more convenient to enter the hole, he could grab the rope with his hands and walk up the wall with his feet. After walking up a little, the vertical passage began to slope slowly, and Zhang Yuan was much more relaxed, and he didn't need to kick the wall so hard anymore.

Now that he had a spare time, Zhang Yuan turned his head and shouted to the rear: "Hey, are the ones in the back all keeping up?" ”

"Kept up." The three people who walked behind Zhang Yuan answered in turn, according to the order of the voice, Tai Meng should follow behind, followed by Xuan Zijun, and the last person was Tietou.

The process of moving forward in the passage is extremely boring, Zhang Yuan hopes that Tai Meng can say a few more words at this time to relieve everyone's boredom, thinking about it, he couldn't help but say: "Tai Meng, don't you like to talk, why don't you talk at this time?" ”

"Boss, I can't do it anymore, I'm too tired." Taeon shouted weakly from behind.

"Okay." Zhang Yuan was said by Tai Meng, and suddenly felt a little tired, so he simply closed his mouth and stopped talking, and the group walked forward in this quiet passage. After walking forward for a while, Zhang Yuan felt that the road was starting to become steeper, and it was obvious that there was a vertical passage in front of him.

"Shen Yin, are you in front?" Zhang Yuan shouted ahead.

"I'm here, what's the matter?" Shen Yin's voice came back from the front, because the effect of the echo seemed loud and long.

"I think the road ahead is a bit steep, why don't we take a break and go up?" Zhang Yuan really didn't want to go up at this time, his legs were a little numb, after all, the slope was a slope, but it was not completely flat, it must be laborious.

"Boss, there's no need to rest, this is the exit ahead."

When Zhang Yuan heard the shouting from the front, he was immediately startled, and hurriedly asked, "Is it really at the exit, why is it so fast?" ”

"Really, but everyone should be quiet when they go out for a while, although everyone outside is asleep, no one can guarantee that they will not get up late."

Tai Meng said with a smile in the back: "Come on, I want to sing two songs to celebrate when I go out, this place is so far away from the point where the guards sleep, how can anyone hear it." ”

Zhang Yuan also laughed twice, turned his head and said, "Just you, still singing?" Forget it, be careful. ”

Being interrupted like this, Zhang Yuan suddenly felt a surge of energy all over his body, grabbed the rope and rushed towards Shen Cheng in front. Sure enough, as Shen Cheng said, he climbed a short distance in the vertical passage, and saw that the passage in front of him had come to an end, revealing the night sky outside.

"Shen Yin, pull me along." Zhang Yuan stretched out his hand outside, and Shen Ying pulled him up from above. After Zhang Yuan got out of the passage, he opened his arms and stood up straight, gulping greedily into the fresh air of the outside world, and sighed with emotion: "It's finally out, it seems that the person who wants to kill me hasn't succeeded yet, and now it's my turn!" ”

"Boss, be quiet." Shen Cheng reminded him next to him, and Zhang Yuancai put away his voice twice.

"Eh, Labor and Management are finally out!" After Tai Meng came out, he also yelled madly, but the result was two more "shut up". However, Tai Meng still asked Shen Cheng: "Shen Cheng, why is the way out so short, I remember that we walked for a long time when we went down." ”

"Are you stupid, we went down the slope, and now we basically go straight up, it must be much shorter." Zhang Yuan scolded angrily, and then put his eyes on the hole that came out.

I saw a trailer stuck upside down in another rotting hole next to the entrance of the cave, and one end of the rope was tied to the lever of the trailer, and as the rope shook back and forth, another head poked out of the hole. Tai Meng saw that Xuan Zijun also came out of the hole, and hurriedly helped pull the other party out.

Zhang Yuan gave Shen Cheng a look, and then walked straight towards Xuan Zijun, and said, "How is it, isn't it very touching to come back to this, what are you going to do in the future?" ”

Xuan Zijun lowered his head, then raised his head to look at the few people around him, and replied, "I, thank you very much for escaping with me." But I still don't know how to deal with it, obviously I'm the guard here, I should go back and report. But those slaves, those people, all of them were killed by my superiors, and I don't know what to do. ”

At this time, the iron head also came up from the hole, and after he came up, he didn't say a word, and he didn't do anything else, just stood behind Xuan Zijun, staring at the back of the other party's head. Zhang Yuan saw Tietou's actions and knew that as long as he showed it a little, Tietou would use his hands to knock Xuan Zijun in front of him unconscious.

Now that they are all ready, Zhang Yuan naturally thought about it: "I plan to escape from here with everyone, we are not suitable to go back, that guy will definitely find a way to kill everyone when he sees us." So, what are you going to do? ”

"But we couldn't escape, the mine was surrounded by thick, high walls, and there were patrols."

Zhang Yuan looked at Shen Ying, then at Tietou, and asked Xuan Zijun again: "You don't care how we escaped, I just want to know what you think of us doing this, and whether you are willing to join." ”

"I ......"

"Iron head, do it." When Tietou heard this order, he directly knocked Xuan Zijun unconscious with the bucket that began to carry water, while Zhang Yuan rushed up with an arrow to support the other party's body and prevent him from falling.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Yuan turned his head a little angrily and asked, "Shen Cheng, he hasn't spoken yet, why did you ask Tietou to do it?" ”

"Boss, what he needs now is a dose of fierce medicine, and when we take him out, he will naturally not hesitate. Alright, Boss, it's time to get dressed, we need to get out of here. Shen Cheng didn't raise his head, and was packing his things there.

"Alas, iron head, put the man on his back."

"Yes."
