Chapter 49: Hot Hands

Behind the overseer came a ragged man, who had placed a wooden barrel a little larger than a bucket in the small courtyard, who was also a prisoner in the mine.

"Thank you, sir. Boss Yang bowed to the overseer.

The men behind him stared at the barrel, which was their ration for the day.

"Come here!" said the overseer, pointing at Boss Yang.

"Yes!" Boss Yang cautiously followed the overseer out of the small courtyard.

A few feet away from the small courtyard, the overseer said lightly: "There is something for you to do." ”

"Don't worry, the adults will do it. Boss Yang hurriedly said.

"That little doll who just came, don't let him die. The overseer said.

Hearing this, Boss Yang was shocked, he didn't expect that kid to be very promising.

It seems that he is going to offer that kid, and the overseer has come to remind him.

"Any means can be used on that kid, no matter how tortured he is, in short, he can't make him feel better, as long as he doesn't die. The overseer continued, "If he's dead, you're the only one to ask. ”

"Yes, the little ones will do it. Boss Yang bowed and said.

The overseer finished and left.

Boss Yang couldn't help muttering to himself in his heart: "What the hell is going on, obviously I want to torture this kid, but I can't let this kid die? ”

If you are not careful, after a while, this kid dies, then your old life will be over.

He found that this kid was a little hot, so he couldn't live for it, and if the overseer found out that he didn't torture this kid here, he still couldn't eat and walk around.

"Starve him a few times first. Boss Yang made a decision in his heart.

When Boss Yang returned to the small courtyard, he saw that the old people in the courtyard were staring at him.

He knew he wasn't there, and they didn't dare to eat without permission.

Boss Yang was very satisfied with the prestige he had established, and couldn't help but laugh and said, "Just now, the overseer praised us for being very diligent in our work recently, so we have to work harder." Why don't you eat?"

"Boss, you're not here, why don't we eat first?" said the fourth with a grin.

"Fourth, as before, you will divide it. Boss Yang said.

"And these newcomers?" asked the fourth, pointing to the newcomer.

"Distribute it according to half of the old man. Boss Yang waved his hand.

"Brothers, it's time to eat. The fourth shouted loudly.

The old men hurried around, their eyes fixed on the barrels.

Lin Xiqi didn't move, he saw that the wooden barrel was filled with black and yellow steamed buns, and it also exuded a rancid smell, which made people disgusting when they smelled.

Basically the newcomers didn't come forward, is such a thing for people to eat?

Each of those old people received a piece about the size of a palm, and those with a higher status could get more.

"New here, come and get it. The fourth waved to the newcomer.

These newcomers just stared at the fourth child coldly and didn't step forward.

"Hey, why are you still disgusted? It's really shameless, don't regret it when the time comes. The fourth asked with squinted eyes.

"Since they don't want it, then the old people should share more. Boss Yang waved his hand.

These old men couldn't help cheering, and stepped forward to take some steamed buns from the fourth child.

After watching these old men gobbling up, Lin Xiqi quickly reacted.

How can there be the qualifications to pick and choose here, and survival is fundamental.

"I want to. Lin Xiqi shouted.

"Hmph, it's not your share. Boss Yang stepped forward and grabbed Huang Xiao's collar and snorted coldly.

He was going to eat Lin Xiqi for a few days, and when he couldn't stand it, he would give him food again, which could be regarded as a kind of torture.

Anyway, don't let him die, the overseer should be able to deal with it.

"Why?" asked Lin Xiqi.

"What is it? Lao Tzu said no, no, there will be no share for you in the next three days. When Boss Yang said this, his eyes suddenly widened, he looked in from the collar of Lin Xiqi's coat, and saw the unicorn jade pendant hanging around Lin Xiqi's neck.

"This is a good thing, I have to get it, and when the time comes, I will give it to the steward, and my life in the mine should be much better." Boss Yang was very pleasantly surprised.

Lin Xiqi also noticed the change in Boss Yang's eyes, looked at the other party's greedy eyes, and knew that the other party had evil thoughts about his jade pendant.

This jade Peilin Xiqi will definitely not be taken away, this is the only relic left to him by his parents.

Lin Xiqi wanted to do it, but in the end he endured it.

He knew that Boss Yang would definitely not tell others about this, he wanted to monopolize it, and he would definitely not do it to himself now.

So he can find an opportunity to kill Boss Yang, instead of being in front of the public now.

"Anyway, this meal doesn't have your share. Boss Yang let go of Lin Xiqi's collar, pushed him out a few steps, and snorted coldly.

The fourth didn't know why Boss Yang wanted to target this kid, and he didn't bother to care, beckoning the old people to quickly divide the rest.

"Boss, this is yours, the little one picks the best. The fourth brother handed a piece of steamed bun three times the size of the others to Boss Yang with both hands.

The crowd devoured the buns and soon finished eating, and the sky became brighter, and after a while, a bell rang.

"It's started, it's started. Elder Yang shouted loudly, "You newcomers can have a long memory, don't think about causing trouble here, you can't afford the consequences, and if you don't want to die immediately, just be honest." ”

There are many small courtyards like this in this area, and Lin Xiqi can't count them for a while.

Each small courtyard seems to have a leader, and under his leadership, a certain number of people are gathered, and then the overseer is followed to the mining place.

While on the road, Lin Xiqi heard more about the Chiyan Mine from the people around him.

It is said that there are 100,000 prisoners who have been assigned here, most of whom are not very strong like Lin Xiqi.

When some powerful prisoners were sent in, the Red Flame Sect would put them in blackiron handcuffs and leg iron.

It is made of dark iron and can hardly be opened by manpower, which also limits the strength of the prisoners.

The Seven Star Sect uses people in the rivers and lakes to mine, because the physical fitness of the people in the rivers and lakes is stronger than that of ordinary people, and they are more suitable for mining.

When they arrive at the mining area, everyone will be given mining tools, and when they leave, they cannot take the tools with them, which is also to prevent these people from resisting with tools.

Lin Xiqi carried a pickaxe taller than him, and 'bang, bang, bang' chiseled the rock again and again.

Although he is young, he is a person in the rivers and lakes who knows how to do internal strength, and he still has this strength.

The prisoners around them didn't dare to be lazy, and if they stopped, the overseers' whips would be unceremoniously drawn.

'Bang', Lin Xiqi's body couldn't help but tremble.

His back was twitched, and the speed in his hand couldn't help but speed up a little.

The overseer who had slapped Lin Xiqi walked not far away, and there was already an overseer standing there.

"The steward is really, let's take good care of this kid, according to my meaning, can't we just do it? An overseer said.

"Let him live and torture all the time, that is the real pain, and sometimes death is a relief. Take your time, stay here for ten or eight years, this kid will be crazy if he doesn't die. The other chuckled.

Lin Xiqi knew that he was being taken care of, and these overseers would come over from time to time to beat him, regardless of whether he was lazy or not.
