Chapter 3: Bad News
Three days came as scheduled. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
In the past three days, Qin Mu has always had a shallow smile on his face, and his stereotypical expression that has not changed for several years has added a bit of humanity, and even smiled at those who had bullied him originally. Those who have seen him naturally know why, because everyone here is like this, and only when it is the turn of the year to return home to see his family, do they show this knowing smile.
This night, the moon is even rounder!
The day after tomorrow is August and a half, and tomorrow morning will be the day to go home!
As soon as Qin Mu thought of this, he felt that he had infinite motivation in his heart, and the four years of slave life had become meaningful.
This night, he didn't cultivate, but leaned on the corner of the mine, motionless, his eyes looked at the bright moon in the sky with excited light, as if he wanted to see through it, imagining in his heart that the Qin clan was also watching on the other side of the moon, thinking that he was about to return home and greet his son.
"My mother's health must be fine! I was almost recovered when I left last year......
"The tall tree I planted last year has grown a lot taller! ”
"I must go faster tomorrow, so that I can get home tomorrow night, so that I can be with my mother for thirty-six hours, and I must eat the flower dew cake made by my mother." ”
"Also, I have to give my father a good stick of incense, and tell him that Xiao Mu is now grown up, no one dares to bully me, and I, like my father, can already take care of others. ”
......
Qin Mu had a lot of thoughts in his mind, outlining what he was going to do in the next three days, talking about it, but he couldn't finish it, no matter how he calculated it, there was not enough time.
In the midst of such expectations and plans, consciousness slowly dissipated, and the corners of his mouth automatically rose, and he fell asleep with a satisfied smile.
As soon as there was a glimmer of light, he woke up automatically, turned over as fast as he could, and ran to the center of the mine, staring at the top of the pit without blinking.
After a while, nearly a hundred or so people came to him, and on this day, it was the turn of these hundred or so people to leave here and go home to visit relatives, and all of them had excited and anxious looks on their faces.
Although the time and batch of their return home had already been decided, when the day actually came, a group of people were still very nervous, and even a little scared, worried that an accident would happen.
In such a place where the gods disregard, any kind of accident can happen!
Even the miners who had not yet reached the time of their return home gathered here, looking at the hundred people with envy.
The same is the end of the world.
The samurai did not drop their chains at this time, and soon arranged for the overseer to come down and read out the list of people who could return to their hometowns this time.
In the past, the head of the overseer who looked fierce and evil in the eyes of everyone was very different in the eyes of this hundred or so people, although he still used the usual high-minded tone, fat head and big ears, oily face, and big belly, but this day in the eyes of everyone he was like the best person in the world, his whole body was shining with holy light, more merciful than a saint, and he was simply a savior Bodhisattva.
The overseer coughed a few times, cleared his throat, and began to take the roll call.
"Zhao Da Python, Li Sangui, Li Lianlian, Zhu Qilin ......"
Every time a name was called, there was an uproar below, and there was an unusually excited roar, and the roaring person walked out of the group, with tears in the corners of his eyes, as if venting his emotions that had been suppressed for a year.
This kind of excitement is also reasonable, although there is no worry about food and clothing here, but the daily living and working environment is too bad, the sun is hot during the day, every day is exhausting all physical strength, and at night it is pitch black, with the sky as the bed and the ground as the bed, helpless. In the absence of medical insurance, the sun is so scorching, such a huge work pressure, a person accidentally has any disease, there is only a dead end, most of the people who die here are due to heat stroke or collapse to death.
After all, not everyone is as physically perverted as Qin Mu, and they also have martial arts.
Being able to live until the day of seeing your loved ones again next year is simply the greatest gift from God.
The one-third mortality rate is not a joke. Although these people have never left the mines, they have also heard that these overseers have been bored to say that if they die, they will be thrown into a hollowed-out pit, with no tombstones, no names, natural decay, or cannibalization by birds and animals.
Didn't leave any mark.
Who can still remember the names of the more than 7,000 innocent miners who have died in the past four years?
The saints are unkind!
The pot-bellied overseer read more than thirty names at once, and those who were named all walked to the side of the overseer leader with joy, and the remaining dozens of people who were not named became more and more nervous.
The overseer read dozens of names one by one, and naturally some people were happy and some were worried.
The hearts of those who were not named became more and more anxious, and in the end, only six lonely people were left who were not named, and Qin Mu had a seat among them.
Qin Mu was also very nervous in his heart, but years of silence forced him to pretend to be calm, but the pair of unconsciously clenched fists expressed his nervousness, and looked at the roll of silk paper in the hand of the overseer leader with great hope.
"Wow"
The overseer suddenly put away the silk paper, and said in a loud voice: "You guys get ready, you can go home in a quarter of an hour, and the rest of the people continue to work!"
Qin Mu was stunned for a moment, a little unresponsive, and the other five people who were not named also showed a dejected appearance, as if their souls had been sucked away, and even two of them collapsed directly to the ground, bursting into tears and crying.
Not being able to return home within the specified time has another deep meaning here, and it is also a tacit secret in the mining area.
Just when the overseer had already turned his head and was about to leave, Qin Mu reacted, and under the excitement, he unconsciously used light feather skills, and with a stride, he actually stepped out of several meters, grabbed the collar of the overseer leader, pinched his neck, and poked his neck with fingers as hard as pliers.
"Why not me?!"
There was a hissing pain in his voice, which resounded at the bottom of the pit, and he was like a wild beast, and his angry eyes were blood-red, like the eyes of a wild beast, and there were faint tears rolling in them.
The roar frightened the overseer and slumped on the gravel, followed by a scream, and the fat buttocks coincidentally sat on the spiked stone, and the flesh was suddenly punctured by the spiked stone, straight into the bone, and a pool of blood flowed out.
The overseer couldn't say a word, he was so frightened by Qin Mu that he forgot the pain, and his screams stopped abruptly, looking at Qin Mu who was a good man on weekdays with panic and fear, he had been here for four years, Qin Mu had always been obedient to his words, he had never seen him so irritable, and he didn't even give him a little face in public.
And just now he came to him with one step, this is not something ordinary people can do at all, it is too fast, and at a glance, he seems to see a fierce beast.
"You're looking for death! Let go of the captain!"
A very large subordinate next to the head of the overseer saw that his immediate boss had been beaten, how could he be polite, he was used to being powerful on weekdays, and waved the animal skin in his hand to entangle and grow a whip, and he violently pumped it towards Qin Mu, bringing a piercing sonic boom.
"Smack"
With a crisp sound, Qin Mu actually grabbed the long whip with his flesh and blood left hand, but the front end of the long whip was really pumped on his left arm, leaving a blood-red trace, and a piece of the skin and flesh fell off, and it quickly swollen.
Qin Mu didn't care about his injured left arm, grabbed the overseer leader, and lifted him high with his right hand that was holding his neck, almost hysterically roaring: "Why not me?"
He's been here for four years, and although he doesn't communicate with anyone or any friends, he knows everything here better than anyone else.
If it is the turn of any of the miners to return to their hometowns to visit their relatives but they are not named, it proves that there are no relatives outside, and your relatives have completely died, and the meaning of returning to their hometowns to visit relatives naturally does not exist.
His name was not mentioned today, and he would not forget the specific day of his return, so there was only one possibility left, his mother died, there were no relatives outside, and his right to visit relatives was completely lost, and he would also become a real mining slave, and he would be enslaved by those bastards in Xuyangmen for the rest of his life.
The beasts of Xuyangmen will not let go of the slaves in their hands, if there are relatives who are restricted, maybe they can give you a way to live, but if the relatives die, they can only firmly control these people who have lost their relatives in their hands, otherwise if they let them go, maybe one day they will come to the door to retaliate and blame the death of their relatives on their heads.
Those who are in a high position will absolutely strangle all dangers in the cradle.
It's like a gentleman doesn't stand under a dangerous wall.
The head of the overseer felt that he was almost out of breath, and then looked at Qin Mu, who was only one and a half meters tall, but there was a pair of fierce eyes that were not human, and a terrifying gaze full of murderous intent was even more frightened, and to add insult to injury, the dozen or so overseers behind him were also frightened on the spot, and no one wanted to save him.
"Mixed ...... Egg...... , save me!!" The overseer almost cried, and shouted for help by the throat of the male duck!
"Bang"
What responded to him was a hard fist, and with a crisp sound, his pus-filled nose was forced into it, and the bridge of his nose was directly broken, turning into a puddle of rotten meat.
Qin Mu glanced at the dozen or so overseers who had already drawn out the long whip and wanted to save him, and said coldly: "Don't force me, I will kill someone!" His bloodshot eyes were about to erupt with fire.
Domineering and murderous.
The dozen or so overseers who had already drawn their long whips were stunned, and instinctively withdrew their long whips, crackling, the scene was chaotic, and even a few whips were drawn on their own people's bodies.
The screams continued.
Qin Mu turned a deaf ear to the screams, and only wanted to know the result, the strength in his hand increased by three points, and shouted again: "Ding Fatty, don't force me, you should know what I want to know?"
"Ah...... Hmm......" Ding Fat's fat face turned red, he couldn't breathe, and he was stunned for several times but didn't say a word, it seemed that he was really a little delirious because he was frightened.
Just when Qin Mu was about to be angry and Ding Fat was about to be pinched and suffocated to death, a piercing chill fell from the sky, and a voice that was grander than everyone followed and came into everyone's ears
"Evil animal!
