Chapter 44: Promoted

With a yawn, he walked slowly back to the mine in the dim light, and the day passed in utter boredom. When is this kind of day coming? Does he have to work here like everyone else, until he can go back to land? This means that he will not be able to go back to work here for the rest of his life. Because Deng Ke is not the material for being an official at all, he does not have Yasi's shrewdness and ability, and he does not know how to be sophisticated, and even he can't compare to Lou Yu, people can at least endure hardships and be at ease, and people believe that as long as they continue to be like this, there will always be a day when they will come out. But Deng Ke felt that even if he endured it like Lou Yu, that day would not come. Therefore, he had to find another way, he didn't want to waste his youth here little by little, which he couldn't accept anyway. Thinking of this, he suddenly became frightened, and stared at the vaulted cave roof in horror. Yass poked her head in from outside the cave, and as soon as she saw the lamp, she immediately said cheerfully:

"Dengke, I have good news for you. ”

When Lamp Ke saw Yasz come back to her senses, the fear in her heart was swept away.

"What's the good news?" he asked curiously.

"Let's go, let's talk while eating. After Yasi finished speaking, she turned around and ran to the cafeteria, Deng Ke was interested, and followed Yasi to the cafeteria happily.

"Hey, Yasi, I said why can't I find you, it turns out that as soon as you came out of the field room, you went to look for the lamp!" Shi Ting said a little unhappily when he caught up from behind, and unexpectedly didn't see Lou Yu follow.

"yes, what's wrong? I have to go to you first?" Jass shrugged as she pushed Stine away into the cafeteria.

"What about Lou Yu?" he asked.

"He's still in the reception room, and he'll be over in a moment. Shi Ting's tone was very stiff, and after speaking, he walked into the cafeteria.

Deng Ke shook his head, and just wanted to follow up, Lou Yu shouted from a distance and ran over. His face was flushed, as if something great had happened.

"Hey, wait for me. He ran over and put his arm around Lamp's shoulder, panting.

"Lou Yu, what's wrong with you, I see you're happy!" said Deng Ke and helped him rub his back.

"Let's go in and say. After taking a breath, Lou Yu smiled and walked into the cafeteria with Deng Ke. Jass and Stine sat behind two tables far apart, and when they saw them come in, they beckoned them to their place. Deng Ke and Lou Yu looked at each other helplessly.

"What are you doing? Don't make a fuss, sit together, it's hard to change people after a while. Deng Ke walked to Shi Ting's side to pull him, but Lou Yu walked to Yasi's side.

When Shi Ting saw it, the anger was even greater, and he pushed off the lamp Ke and ran out.

"Stine!" Lamp Ke tried to chase, but Yass called him back with a loud voice.

"Dengke, leave him alone. He'll be fine in a moment. Yass gave way, "Come, sit down." I'm going to tell you the good news and cheer you up. Yasi said happily, and Lou Yu looked at her with a smile.

Deng Ke sat down next to Yasi, "What's the good news? ”

"The good news is that I've been officially selected for the team. From tomorrow, I'll be leading the team to work on my own, and in two months' time, our team will be sent back to land, after which I'll officially take over the team!" said Yasz proudly, her face flushing with excitement. Lou Yu nodded vigorously on the side.

"Oh!" Lamp Ke exclaimed, "I can't believe it. That's great, Jas, congratulations!" he was happy for Jas, but comparing himself to Jass made him feel incompetent. Yasi was already able to team up on the spot, but Deng Ke was just messing around.

"Are your teams really going to be sent back to land?"

"Not only us, but also your Brother Bird, as well as Lou Yu's security team, all of their teams that have reached the age of the field will be sent back in advance. Originally, I thought that they were going to do it until the Ula Temple was built, but who knew that things would change. It's like a dream, just this morning. Yass said endlessly, and the excitement was not over.

"Oh. Lamp Ke sighed softly.

"Don't do that. You've only been here for a short time, and although Brother Bird has passed the position to Mani this time, if you do a better job than him, you can still apply for a promotion. Lou Yu comforted him.

"Passed on to Mani?" "Dengke's heart is cold, he is not as good as Brother Bird.

"How do you know?" Deng Ke had always thought Lou Yu was weird from just now.

"Hey, hey. Lou Yu smiled embarrassedly, "Because the field leader called all the successor field teams together, I saw Mani." ”

"Huh?" Lamp Ke understood, "So, your captain chose you?" he asked, surprised.

"Yes. Lou Yu replied with a smile.

"What about Sting?" Lamp Ke hoped that he could choose two captains in a team, but he knew that the hope was slim.

He ......," Lou Yu didn't know what to say.

"He was eliminated. Jass said these words cruelly.

Deng Ke felt a pang of sadness in his heart, "Then does he know?" he asked cautiously.

Yasz shook her head, "No, he doesn't know yet. But he will always know. ”

"It's better that he never knows, he's going to be unbearable. Lamp Ke thought.

"Dengke, you don't have to feel sorry for him. Think about yourself. Yasi began to preach again, "I tell you this just to let you know that as long as you continue to work here steadily, there is still hope for the future." You look at our team, aren't they going to make it to the end? We're going to be like them and we're going to be back on land one day. Lou Yu nodded approvingly, but Deng Ke still couldn't think so.

"I sometimes think, do we have to keep going like this to go back? Is there no other way? Yas, if you look closely, which team isn't over sixty years old? Even if you're better than all of them, you're back on land ten years before them. Are you willing to waste the best part of your life here?Besides, why do we have to work here?Don't we have even the slightest power?Why don't we go back to land now?" The more he spoke, the more agitated he became, and at last he stood up.

Yasi and Lou Yu stared blankly at the lamp for a moment, and then they whispered a few words in unison, as if they were not controlled by their consciousness.

"You mean...... Defiance?"

After saying the last two words, they suddenly came to their senses and hurriedly covered their mouths.

"Dengke, do you still want to go to the bottom of the Black Lake?" Yasi whispered in Dengke's ear.

"No! It's impossible. Lou Yu's head shook like a rattle.

Deng Ke asked unwillingly, "Why?"

Yasi raised her head, her face full of coldness:

"Because we don't have the strength, we're too weak. As long as you have power, you can dominate not only yourself but also others. This is the way this world is, the weak can only obey the powerful people. ”

"No!" said silently with his head down, "no one should try to dominate anyone. We are all free and equal. After speaking, he ate with his head down, and Yasi and Lou Yu didn't say anything more.
