Chapter 643: Shen Tie and the Three Barbarians (2)
Piles of lotus seeds, lotus roots, and even one after another improved blood lotus plants themselves were stored in the space of the Jueli needle box and disappeared in front of them. The immortals and farmers present looked at the gold bars in their hands and did not know what to say.
How can anyone buy something like this, as soon as they buy it, they buy enough to fit it in a warehouse. The spatial equipment in his hand was so powerful.
The fishing boat finally arrived at the port of Vlata and berthed. There are basically only two kinds of ships around, the cargo ships of the Northern Jin Kingdom in the harbor, and the fishing boats of the barbarians in the land of the Three Barbarians. After mooring, Jin Yan paid some fees to the managers on the shore, and gave some more.
Jin Yan and the two looked around, and saw that the order inside and outside the port seemed to be normal. I don't know where the Blood Spirit Sect is, and where the Blood Slave is.
"Young man, look at your outfit as a stranger." The port manager held a handful of money in his hand and whispered, "I'll give you a few pieces of advice, forget it during the day, don't go out and run around at night, be careful of being eaten as food by the blood slaves of the Blood Spirit Sect!" ”
"Oh no, you can't run around during the day. Somidkun is now all over the world to get some young and strong people to mine for him. The people who mined either died of exhaustion in the mines, or they also became food for the blood slaves. ”
"This uncle, who is this Somidkun?" Jin Yan asked.
"It turned out to be the general of the kingdom stationed in the Flatta region. Now, like the new leader of our Mountain Ghost Sect, Ah Ya Suli, they are all minions of the Blood Spirit Sect. The port manager lowered his voice and said.
Jin Yan remembered these two names.
The two left the harbor and sat down in the shade of a tree outside the city of Frata. Jin Yan opened the map and searched for the location of the sinking iron ore, which was in the waters near the barbarian plain about three or four miles northwest of the port of Frata. In addition, there is a small port directly opposite the waterside of the sinking iron mine, which is specially designed to transport the personnel, equipment and various materials needed by the mine, and is heavily guarded and strictly forbidden for outsiders to enter.
"Lord...... Uh, Brother Kim, what are we going to do next? Ye Li asked as he bit the dough, he was hungry very fast now. I had eaten dry food for lunch an hour ago, and I'm hungry again.
"I don't have any ideas for the time being, let's wait and see if I can find a chance to catch someone in the know and ask."
The two of them stayed in the shade of the trees until about four o'clock in the afternoon, and then they finally saw a group of barbarian sergeants, escorting a group of shirtless barbarian men from outside Frata. They were dark-skinned, armed with standard spears, and wore brown uniforms.
Most of the barbarian men had injuries on their bodies and appeared to have been beaten.
"Somidkun has sent someone out to catch the strong man again!" When they were far away, an old farmer who was also enjoying the shade under the tree whispered in a less proficient Donghua dialect.
"Catch the strong man? Why do you catch strong men? Jin Yan asked.
"Work for the Frata Mine! Somidkun stepped up his mining like a madman, to give it to his master, the Blood Spirit Cult. The old farmer looked sad, "My youngest son was taken by them." I went to him and tried to send him a piece of clothing. I don't know how much sin he is suffering in it now. ”
Hearing this, Jin Yan had an idea, pulled up Ye Li, who was still stuffing the dough in his mouth, and ran forward, and caught up with the team escorting the strong man after a while.
"Control yourself, don't let the immortal power be released." He whispered to Ye Li.
The bald captain of the team heard the sound of running, thinking that the comers were going to be against them, and at the sound of an order, all the barbarian sergeants in the team stopped and greeted the two with the tips of their spears.
"Excuse me, are you part of the team working in the mines?" Jin Yan asked innocently.
The Donghua language he spoke was only understood by a few of the barbarian soldiers, and fortunately, the bald captain also understood it.
"Yes, you are?" The bald leader looked at the two suspiciously, his hand on the hilt of his spear. The strange clothes of the two, as well as Ye Li's ugly face, seriously raised his vigilance.
"We came from out of town, we had no money on us, and we had all the food. I heard that you can eat enough to work for people, and you can get paid. Can you take us there? Jin Yan asked with a sincere glint in his eyes.
The bald captain almost laughed out loud, he had to beat people everywhere and arrest people, so that he could catch the number of strong men who worked hard. Where did the two idiot strangers come from now, and they actually threw themselves into the net and came to the door by themselves? While thinking, he probed the aura on the two of them.
Well, I didn't find immortal power, it's an ordinary person. It's easy for ordinary people to do it, but you can't get out when you go in.
"That's right, if we work in the mine, we will not only have enough to eat, a place to live, but also a salary!" The bald captain winked, and the two soldiers walked over and pushed Jin Yan and the others to the back of the strong team.
"Keep up!" The soldier shouted.
"Hey, be polite!" Jin Yan pretended to be angry.
"Hehe, we'll be polite." The bald captain sneered.
Jin Yan and the strong men were escorted forward together, and after about half an hour, a port area surrounded by a stone wall appeared in front of them. There were several watchtowers built between the stone walls, on which sergeants were on duty.
The port area has an iron gate, which is heavily guarded in front of it. When they returned, a barbarian sergeant took the initiative to open the iron door and let them in while speaking in the barbarian language. When they entered, they slammed the iron gates shut.
Facing this small port area, Jin Yan found that the water in a large area facing the near barbarian river in the distance had been drained, and the surrounding area was surrounded by various types of masonry, mud and sand to form a long thick wall to prevent the water from seeping in. Hundreds of barbarian warriors, under the supervision of the sergeants, were digging down tirelessly, digging out pits dozens of meters deep under the water.
The strong men worked very hard and tired, and they were constantly scolded and beaten by the overseers. Some people are already seriously ill or extremely tired, and sometimes they fall to the ground and die.
From time to time, one or two Blood Slaves appeared in the Overseer group. As soon as the dead or seriously ill are found, the blood slaves will pounce on them and devour them on the spot, scaring all the strong men into fear.
The barbarian sergeants handed over Jin Yan's new team of strong men to a black-faced steward. The black-faced steward led them to a place where he had a shovel as a tool and led them into a mine.
"You belong to the Seventy-First Mining Team, and I am your steward. Don't ask me what my name is, just call me in charge. Here you are, get to work. There's no trick, just digging. Anything you dig up, turn it in. The black-faced steward said, "The minerals handed in can be exchanged for one more day of your life and one more day of food." The waste that doesn't work well is the snack of those blood slaves outside. ”
He said it again in Donghua and again in Barbarian.
"Remember, any mineral that is dug up, no matter how small or small, must be turned in. If you hide it yourself, the end will be very tragic. The black-faced steward said as he waved the leather whip in his hand, "Now, let me mark you newcomers!" ”
