Chapter 214: Punished
As soon as the words fell, a loud shout suddenly came from the darkness: "What are you doing!"
Chen Ao was startled, and when he looked back, he saw a strong man standing not far away, it was Qian Laosan. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Qian Laosan squinted his eyes, not fully awake, touching his crotch with one hand, as if he wanted to relieve himself.
He saw Chen Ao's face clearly, and suddenly his eyes widened, surprised and delighted, and said, "You want to run away! Haha, you want to run away!"
Chen Ao knew that Qian Laosan must be looking forward to running away now, so that Ma Zongkui could be punished. Chen Ao sneered, how could he let Qian Laosan succeed?
He snorted and said, "What are you yelling about, which eye of yours saw me trying to escape?"
Qian Laosan didn't give up, and suddenly grabbed Chen Ao's wrist, for fear that he would run away, and shouted loudly.
Chen Ao's heart jumped, and he secretly thought, this bastard, he really doesn't think it's a big deal! But he didn't run away, what were he afraid of him doing?
Qian Laosan's shout woke everyone up. The crowd was clothed, rubbed their eyes, and came out of the shack to see what was going on.
Ma Zongkui scolded and shook off the crowd, and said angrily: "Who is making Lao Tzu sleep?"
Qian Laosan was very proud, pointed at Chen Ao, and said as if inviting merit: "Steward Ma, this kid wanted to slip away, but I caught him!"
Ma Zongkui stared at Chen Ao with a pair of small eyes, his face was full of suspicion, and said, "You kid is really going to find trouble for me! I don't sleep in the middle of the night, what do you want to do?"
Chen Ao shrugged his shoulders and pretended to be relaxed: "Steward Ma, what a wronged person! Why do you think I have to run? I just got up and peed." ”
Qian Laosan said angrily: "Steward Ma, don't believe this kid's nonsense." I saw him sneaking here, I must have wanted to run!"
Ma Zongkui glanced back and forth between the two faces, obviously not knowing who to believe. Chen Ao thought in his heart, although this Qian Laosan is Ma Zongkui's confidant, he may not be able to convince Ma Zongkui. Coupled with his lack of eloquence, it is impossible to speak of Lao Tzu!
Thinking of this, Chen Ao smiled and said, "Steward Ma, your old man is as wise as a torch, and he has already distinguished who is right from wrong. Even if I tried to escape, would I run away with only a single coat? Isn't that a joke?"
Qian Laosan couldn't say these idioms, couldn't pat his ass, and only yelled anxiously. Chen Ao said again: "Besides, there must be guards around this salt farm. How could I have escaped with such humble skills?"
Ma Zongkui obviously believed his words, waved his hand, stopped Qian Laosan from talking again, and shouted: "Even if you don't want to run, you must be doing something bad! I will punish the two of you to squat here together, and you are not allowed to sleep! The others will go back to Lao Tzu!"
Chen Ao smiled bitterly, sighed, and obediently squatted on the ground under Ma Zongkui's gaze, holding his head in his hands.
No one else dared to speak, for fear of annoying Ma Zongkui, so they hurriedly returned to their residence. Ma Zongkui nodded and sneered: "You kid knows the rules very well!"
Chen Ao thought to himself, isn't the joke just treating Lao Tzu as a prisoner, I can see it on TV.
Qian Laosan was obviously not convinced, but he was intimidated by Ma Zongkui's power and had to squat down. But his eyes were always staring at Chen Ao, almost spitting fire.
Chen Aoman didn't care, Ma Zongkui was here, even if Qian Laosan wanted to kill him, he wouldn't dare to do it.
Ma Zongkui saw that the two of them were quite honest, so he nodded, turned around slowly, and prepared to go back to sleep. As he walked, he scolded and scolded: "Fuck, whoever lets Lao Tzu sleep badly, Lao Tzu will let him have a bad life!"
Chen Ao glanced at Qian Laosan, suddenly leaned over, and whispered: "Qian Laosan, didn't you come out to pee?
Qian Laosan was stunned, and then remembered the purpose of getting up in the middle of the night, and the urine rolled in at once. But Ma Zongkui hasn't left yet, so of course he can't pee.
Chen Ao deliberately made it bad and whistled quietly. Qian Laosan's face changed greatly, he couldn't bear it anymore, jumped up and opened his pants, and peed happily towards the corner.
When Ma Zongkui heard the movement, he turned around and shouted, "What are you doing!"
Chen Ao hurriedly smiled: "It's nothing, it's nothing, the horse steward is going well, the horse steward is good night!"
Ma Zongkui waved his hand and said threateningly, "You give me honesty!" said and went into his hut.
Qian Laosan finally let out a long breath, turned around and squatted down honestly, glaring at Chen Ao fiercely. The meaning in that gaze was to swallow Chen Ao and Shui.
Chen Ao hurriedly said: "Qian Laosan, don't mess around! If you make any more noise about the good dream of the horse steward, you won't be able to eat and leave!"
Qian Laosan understood this truth, glared at him hatefully, and resisted the urge to kill.
Seeing that he really didn't dare to make a move, Chen Ao put his mind at ease and said with a smile: "Qian Laosan, in fact, let's just say hello, I'm good, everyone is okay, why do you have to fight back and forth? We can go back to sleep now, but we have to squat here to be cold." This kind of thing that harms others and is not beneficial to yourself, do you think it is interesting?"
Qian Laosan snorted, and said angrily: "Sooner or later, I will catch the evidence of your dishonesty." When the time comes, you must let Manager Ma punish you well!"
Chen Ao said helplessly: "You are obviously also a victim, why bother to fight for the tiger? You must belong to the Stockholm syndrome." This is a disease, and it must be cured!"
Qian Laosan turned his head and ignored Chen Ao anymore, obviously not listening to his words. Even if you let him go tonight, you will never be soft next time.
Chen Ao felt helpless, and thought to himself, I have to think of a way to completely solve this trouble. Otherwise, Qian Laosan, as Ma Zongkui's third eye, has been staring at himself, even if he wants to run, it is impossible.
The night breeze was cold, and the heat was blown away. Even a strong man like Qian Laosan couldn't help but tremble. The cold poison in Chen Ao's body has not been cleared, so it is naturally more painful. Whenever he felt the cold qi in his body, he would silently recite the mantra and secretly exercise his skills, and he could finally resist it.
After the middle of the night, I could finally see a red light rising in the sky. Chen Ao sat on the ground with his butt and seized the time to rest. Before long, everyone will be up and working. He had to hurry up and familiarize himself with the situation.
After breakfast, I started work. Chen Ao followed Peng Shugen as usual, and now the only thing he believes in is this old man.
Today, the work of the two is not very heavy, it is to light the fire in the fire room, steam the brine several times, and filter it to form a salt slurry. I saw several huge iron pots supporting in the fire room, and under each iron pot was a black hearth.
Chen Ao had never burned such a stove, so he could only give Peng Shugen a hand on the side. Although this work is not heavy, it must not be idle, and wood must be added to each pot to prevent the fire from being extinguished.
Chen Ao's face had been smoked into a big flower face, and he didn't care, looking for an opportunity to learn about the situation from Peng Shugen.
