Chapter 256: Underground
How could anyone disagree, joy flashed in his eyes, and he looked at Su Bu with low eyebrows, as if he had the intention of asking.
Obviously, the person he was more convinced of was Su Bujing.
It is generally not a matter of life and death in principle, Su Bujing will not refuse her family's small request, she said with a smile: "When the time comes, give Xiaoyong's brother a little more water." ”
Although the words were said to Zhao and the others, his eyes were looking at Xiao Yong, and when he saw that he was so excited that his forehead touched the ground, Su Bu turned his head in surprise.
"Let's go to the east first, the east side is digging the ground... By the way, are there a lot of people over there? ”
Xiaoyong replied: "There are many, many people, but they are basically people like me, and adults will be very ... Abrupt? ”
The word abrupt was learned by him from Brother Mu.
Su Buyi took the initiative to help Xiao Yong, and his attitude was extremely kind, "Then let's go over and have a look first, and after looking at the east, then go to the west to have a look." ”
Xiao Yong shook his head desperately in flattery, carefully avoiding Su Buyi's hand, his body was very dirty, what if he annoyed him.
"From here, the adults walk in front, and the little ones show the way behind."
Xiao Yong pointed to the hole next to his feet and put on a humble gesture of "please".
Su Buyi quietly pulled Su Buyi and took the lead to go down.
The eldest brother is bold, and it is easy to deal with special situations by walking in front with her, and to cover the people behind.
Su Buyi raised his eyebrows, gave Su Yuanshan and the others a look, and went down the ladder.
The hole in the ground is not big, it is far away and not conspicuous, at first Su Buyi was a little worried that he would hit his head, until he found that the hole was spacious, and he was relieved.
Standard structure with narrow outer and wide inside.
It seems that these people have put some effort into it, and it doesn't look like it was built in a day or two.
The bottom is very spacious, and the stairs made of earth are very smooth, and at first glance, it looks like it is often stepped on, and it is all treaded with oil.
Su Buxin walked and touched and touched, "Xiaoyong, what about the others?" "They are the only ones in the cave, don't the others have to come out to collect the mushrooms?
Xiao Yong walked at the back, and after hearing Su Bu shouting at him, he hurriedly replied: "They are all resting outside, and every time they go to the east to dig the ground, they will be controlled within a hundred people, and each batch will work for five hours, and they will come in turn, and the work in the east will not stop." ”
He had just finished working and went to collect some straw mushrooms after the shift change, but he didn't get a handful, and he met these people.
"The nobles live in the east, and they hate to be noisy... Do you want to go to the earth and see where we live? ”
It was a messy, disgusting, sticky, numb place.
Xiaoyong himself didn't know what was going on, and he couldn't help but look forward to the person in front of him going back with him.
They are very good, they are very soft-hearted, and maybe they will want to help them when they see their situation.
"No," Su Buxing shook his head without hesitation, "It's all down, so I won't go up." And we're going to ask about something. "I won't be here for long.
She didn't want to do some meaningless things, such as leading the suffering people to resist bravely, overthrow the state pastor, and re-establish order.
At least for now, there is no need for that.
She just wanted to get out of this never-ending rush as soon as possible.
Life is short, and she doesn't want to waste her time on these things.
Su Buyi smiled and said, "If we don't inquire about something useful, maybe you can point us to the places where those nobles stay." ”
Xiao Xiao's skinned and white lips trembled, and he glanced at the expressions of Su Yuanshan and the others with unnoticed eyes, and saw that none of them had any objections, and he couldn't help but lower his head.
Zhao waved at Su Buxian, who was walking at the end, and motioned for him to walk next to Su Buwei in front of him.
The air fell silent all of a sudden, and just as the stairs were finished, Su Bu looked at the four holes in front of him and stopped.
The cave is indeed cooler than the ground, but it should still be hot, and it can even be said to be stuffy.
There was no fire on the earthen wall, and it was pitch black, so I was reluctant to waste firewood.
Su Bujing's eyesight was not affected by this, and Su Buyi was the same, in such a dark environment, his ink-like eyes were shining.
After the ladder, the fork starts from here.
Su Bu asked in surprise: "Brother Xiaoyong, which way to go to the east?" ”
Xiao Yong had already adjusted his mentality at this time, and with just the right amount of apprehension, he pointed to the second hole from the left, "This is it." Next, please forgive Xiao Yong's rudeness and allow Xiao Yong to lead the way, because there are still many forks in the road. ”
Xiao Yong's voice was a little hoarse, but it was clear in the semi-enclosed cave.
Su Bu nodded secretly without a trace.
Su Bujing's attitude was very natural and gave way to Xiao Yong, "Can you see the road clearly?" ”
Xiao Yong nodded, only to find that it was dark around him, they shouldn't have seen it, and then answered, he got used to it, and he could even touch it back with his eyes closed.
"Okay, you hurry up."
After Su Bu was surprised, Xiao Yong led the way in front very well, and while leading the way, he also introduced where several other caves lead.
Turning around and turning again, Su Bujing and Su Buyi remembered the way they came with a clear mind.
"By the way, you live on the earth, and nobles on the east, but what about the rest of the world? The four corners of the south, east, and west. Su Buwei said curiously, breaking the slightly strange calm in the cave,
"There are not so many places now, only the east and west, but now the focus is on the east where the nobles live, and only a larger pit has been dug in the west." ”
Su Buwei pouted, "Yes, there are so many officials, I'm afraid the east is not enough to live." ”
Xiao Yong pulled the corners of his mouth a little embarrassed, and did not open his mouth, because what he said was the truth.
It didn't take long for Su Bujing and the others to see a pale orange firelight oozing out in front of the cave.
"It's here, what do you want to ask and call people directly... You are nobles. Xiao Yong said as if reminding.
"The place where the ground is dug is not close to where the nobles live, so no one will disturb the interest of the adults."
Su Bu smiled and glanced at Xiao Yong, and got a slightly honest smile from him, and his hunched waist was like a shrimp.
Both sides are tacit.
Su Bu patted the ash on his body, generously revealed his white and glowing face, and stepped into the cave.
Inside the cave
A hundred shirtless men and women were digging with hoes, and not one of them was lazy, for there was a man with a whip who was supervising them.
Whenever someone slows down, they get a hard whip from him.
Xiao Yong's whole body trembled subconsciously, as if recalling the pain of the skull.
Su Buzheng didn't stop, strode up to the person with the whip in his hand, raised his chin, kicked him, and the whole person was a little careless, "Don't you salute when you see me?" ”
The man with the whip in his hand just wanted to be angry, and the whip in his hand was accumulating, but when he saw a touch of cold whiteness, he was immediately stunned, and knelt down without thinking about it, "My lord kicks well, and those who have no dignity like me should be taught a lesson!" ”
Su Buxin gently hooked his lips, just now the second brother said that there are too many nobles in the east to live, and there is no objection to it, if you want to have an overseer, you must not recognize it all, and it is nothing to be wanton.
