Chapter 35: Laziness

"How's it going, did you find it?" Brother Bird asked after looking at the lamp Ke for a long time without moving. Deng Ke didn't answer, he was staring at a stone in a daze.

"Hey, did you find it?" asked Brother Bird again.

"Oh, not yet. He crouched down and picked up the stone. "Brother Bird, what kind of stone is this?" he asked, holding up to Brother Bird, who took the stone and looked at it and threw it aside. "It's just an ordinary stone, it's useless, hurry up and find the white iron stone, don't rub it, it's almost dawn!"

Deng Ke reluctantly looked at the stone, lowered his head and looked for it again. He tried to concentrate on searching for the unrecognizable metallic luster, but his eyes were always drawn to the round purple stones, and he had no choice but to kick them out of the way to carve out a path that was only white iron. Finally, he found it.

"I've found it!" he cried out happily. Brother Bird walked over and took a closer look and smiled with satisfaction.

"Good, you can already make out the white ironstone. Put him in your basket and keep looking, and you will have to fill a basket before dawn. ”

"Fill a basket?" "How much white iron and stone do you have to load?" Not to mention that there is not enough time, but it is enough to weigh the lamp.

"What about after a basket is filled?" said Lamp Ke wanted to hear what more terrifying things were waiting for him.

"When you have filled the basket, carry it to the back of the mountain, where there are many carts on the mountainside, and pour the stones into the carts, and you will be done this morning. How is it, it's quite easy, isn't it?" Brother Bird said very easily, but the problem was that it was impossible for Deng Ke to carry such a heavy basket of white iron and stone over this mountain.

"Why do you want to dump the stones into the cart?" he said, hoping for an easier way to get the job done.

"Pour them into carts so that the convoy can transport them to the smelter to smelt them into usable materials! Why do you have so many problems, hurry up and get to work, don't even think about eating if you can't finish it." Brother Bird was impatient, he felt that Deng Ke was taking the opportunity to be lazy again.

Lamp Ke was happy to hear the three words of the convoy, because it meant that he might see Yasi and them after he filled a basket. But how can a basket of white iron and stone be carried over? He decided that he didn't want to, but filled the basket first. He took off the basket and laid it on the ground, and found the stone by himself. But Brother Bird put the basket on his back again.

"You have to carry the basket on your back, you can't take it off. Brother Bird said.

"Why?!" Lamp Ke was puzzled.

"Because it's the rule! You see, everybody is carrying a basket, and you're no exception. Brother Bird pointed to the people around him.

When he saw it, no one took off the basket, and all of them put stones into it while carrying it. This is too unreasonable, how can there be such a rule! Obviously it is easier, why do you have to suffer this way?

"Brother Bird, if you put down the basket, I think everyone can do it faster. Can this rule be changed?" said Deng Ke boldly.

"Hmph!" Brother Bird is really anxious now. "After so many years, did you change the rules by yourself? Don't talk nonsense! Hurry up and work for me!"

Deng Ke reluctantly carried the basket and continued to look for the white iron stone, to say that there are really many stones on this mountain, all of them are not seen by the light ke, they are strange shapes, colorful, so that the light ke can not throw away any of them in his hand, especially the purple stone, it has an inexplicable attraction to the light ke, so he can't put it down, if it is not to install the white iron stone, the light ke will be fully loaded with this kind of stone to take it back, play well. Now he could only secretly put on what he thought was the rarest piece of the curl that he had hidden in his sleeve, and concentrate on finding the white ironstone.

The light of day has begun to shine. There were also more and more white iron stones in the basket of the lamp, and he only felt that his body was leaning back, and he was about to lean back. Brother Bird went to supervise the team members in other places at this time, and Deng Ke looked around, those depression people had filled a basket of stones and were walking up the mountain one after another, and no one noticed him. It occurred to him that he could not carry the stones he was now carrying in a basket? After being poured into the car, who would know that he was not carrying a whole basket of stones? Because he was afraid of being discovered, he forcibly endured the pain in his feet, followed the crowd across the mountain in a hurry, and walked halfway up the mountain behind the mountain. When I got closer, I saw that there were several carts parked there. He took off the basket with all his strength, and was about to pour stones into the cart when a man stopped him.

"Don't pour it yet! Wait a minute. The man hurried over. Deng Ke threw down the basket in a panic, and when he looked up, he found that there were several people standing not far behind the cart, and they seemed to be monitoring the cart.

"What's the hurry! don't you see that you're waiting?" the person who ran over gasped.

Deng Ke looked behind him, and the people in the depression with baskets on their backs had formed a long line, waiting in place.

"This?" Lamp Ke didn't understand what was going on.

"Which team are you from?" the man picked up a slate as if to take notes.

"It's over!" thought to himself, he didn't expect that there would be someone to record it, and he would definitely find that I didn't have enough stones for a basket, yes, everyone could see it.

"I'm from Brother Bird's team. Deng Ke said hesitantly.

"Number?" he asked again.

"......" Lantern Ke thought about it carefully, he couldn't remember what his number was.

"I don't have a number. He said.

"No number?" the man looked at him again, "Are you from Lu?" he asked, a little puzzled.

"Yes. Deng Ke nodded.

The man pursed his lips and said:

"Then you should report your name. ”

"Ah......" Deng Ke smiled awkwardly, "I think I'm in the wrong place, I wanted to mine more white iron, and when I saw them coming this way, I came with them." Hehe, it's time for me to go back, I have to keep quarrying. As he said this, he picked up the basket and was about to leave, when the man grabbed him.

"I know what you mean. He whispered, his eyes darting around at the same time. "I can help you fool around, but you have to promise me one condition. As he spoke, he poured the white stone from the basket into the cart.

"What conditions?" Deng Ke was surprised, he didn't think that he would have any use value.

"Just ten mines. The man leaned closer to the lamp Ke muttered, and began to pick up the slate in earnest. Lamp Ke narrowed his eyes.

"Tell me, what's your name?" he winked.

"My name is Zhan Dengke. Lamp Ke nervously reported his name.

The man gasped suddenly, his eyes widening.

"You're Zhan Dengke?" he seemed to see a ghost.

Taken aback by his reaction, he began to hesitate to make a definitive statement, but eventually he admitted.

"Oh my God!" the man's hand trembled as he carved the name of the lamp on the slab, and marked a basket of white iron stone after the name. Deng Ke was completely relieved now, he suddenly thanked the person in front of him, no matter what his conditions were, as long as he could make him carry a basket of stones, he was willing to agree.
