Chapter 614: Accept your fate?
at the same time.
The third working face of the mine.
The squad leader meeting chaired by Sun Hanqing was being conducted in secret.
"It is very rare for the eight of us to meet together. Don't be anxious, just listen to me slowly." Sun Hanqing looked around at the other seven people, hope in his eyes.
"Old Sun, what's going on? Don't keep us in suspense."
"Yeah, Old Sun, don't be so mysterious. It's time to rest. If you have something to say, just say it."
"Everyone, please be quiet and listen to what Old Sun has to say."
Some of the team leaders from the other seven work areas had heard the news about Ye Mu, while others had not. They could not contain themselves and began to express their opinions.
“Cough cough cough!”
At this moment, Xiahou Tie coughed dryly a few times and looked around at the seven squad leaders. "Everyone, what Uncle Sun is about to say concerns the safety of all of us. Can you please be quiet?"
Everyone knew Xiahou Tie. After all, he came from the Xiahou family, a master of weapon refining. They gave him some face and looked at Sun Hanqing silently.
"Everyone, this is what happened."
Sun Hanqing did not rush to tell the story, but first narrated in a roundabout way what Ye Mu had done after arriving at the mine.
He didn't mention anything about Ni wanting to rescue them.
After all, wanting to leave here is everyone's only goal.
But after so many years, no one has successfully left, which has led to them accepting this unwilling fate deep down in their hearts.
If Sun Hanqing had said frankly that someone was going to rescue us, I'm afraid no one would have believed it.
No one even wanted to listen to him any further.
This is the key point.
Sure enough, after everyone heard Sun Hanqing talk about Ye Mu, their faces showed various colors.
There is expectation, surprise, and confusion.
A young man with the blood of the Dark King was assigned to be a supervisor in a mine, but he actually killed the centurion Lou Xiong and the supervisor Miao Di. This is obviously confusing.
"In fact, Ye Mu is not the son of the Dark King."
Sun Hanqing began to focus on Ye Mu's identity.
Everyone suppressed their thoughts and kept silent, just hoping that Sun Hanqing would speak out quickly.
"He can only control thunder and lightning, and was mistakenly believed by everyone in Dark Stone City to be of the Dark King's bloodline, so he took advantage of the situation and tacitly agreed with the answer in everyone's minds. However, he was framed by the eldest and fifth sons and was imprisoned in our mine." Sun Hanqing said slowly.
“…”
Everyone was speechless again.
To be honest, if I could become the Dark King's son, I would be able to enjoy wealth and glory for the rest of my life!
But why do people still take advantage of others’ tricks?
Sun Hanqing looked at the suspicious expressions of the crowd and chuckled, "Actually, his true identity is from Earth, a plane that we all consider to be garbage."
"Earthlings!"
"After all this talk, he's just a guy from a trashy plane. If he can really become the son of the Dark King, it would be a blessing for him for several lifetimes."
"You two should stop saying that the Earth is a garbage plane. Do you really think that you are superior to others just because you were born in the Tianxuan Realm? Aren't you still working as laborers here day and night?" Sun Hanqing suddenly shouted coldly.
The two squad leaders who looked down on Ye Mu's identity immediately fell silent.
Sun Hanqing sighed heavily and began to slowly reveal Ye Mu's thoughts. "He can control lightning. This is his talent, and we can't envy him. And the reason he came all the way to Dark Stone City is mainly to rescue his brothers."
Someone questioned, "Come to rescue his brother?"
"They are Zhang Bufan and Kunpeng from the eighth working face." Xiahou Tie said at this time.
"Thinking of rescuing people from here is absolutely wishful thinking!"
"What a guy who doesn't know his own limitations. It's better not to be with him, lest he cause trouble and implicate us." The two team leaders of the second and fourth work faces immediately distanced themselves from the matter.
"It seems like you two have chosen to stay here for the rest of your lives?"
Sun Hanqing could hear in the two men's tone that they did not feel relieved at all, but rather mocked.
"I've already accepted my fate."
The foreman of the second work area stood up suddenly and said, "You guys can chat. I will pretend I don't know anything about this matter. Don't have any contact with me in the future. Goodbye!"
"If you called us here just to talk about Ye Mu, then I'm leaving too." The team leader of the fourth work area shrugged. "By the way, don't try to talk to my people about this. Everyone on the third work area has already accepted their fate."
"That's right, it's better to live a miserable life than to die a good death. It's more comfortable to work as a laborer here for a lifetime than to be caught and tortured to death when trying to escape." The foreman of the second working face shook his head and left together with the foreman of the fourth working face.
"Have you accepted your fate?" Sun Hanqing and Xiahou Tie hesitated to speak.
In the end, those two people were tortured by the strict system here and became completely dull.
He has actually chosen to accept his fate and doesn't even have the most basic thought of escaping!
"well!"
Sun Hanqing let out a long sigh.
There was also a very complicated look in Xiahou Tie's eyes.
"They are right. It is better to live a miserable life than to die a good death. That Ye Mu really overestimates his own abilities. I advise you not to get too close to him, so as not to get implicated. Goodbye!" The foreman of the fifth work face just stood up after expressing his opinion, and the foreman of the sixth work face also stood up.
The two of them chose to leave at the same time.
Mainly because they have experienced too many such separations of life and death.
As far as they could remember, no one had ever escaped safely from here.
Those laborers who had bold ideas were either shot to death by arrows on the way to escape, or were caught and had their limbs crippled and thrown into the furnace to be burned to death!
"What about you three?"
Sun Hanqing had already given up all hope in Ye Mu's plan to rescue everyone, and immediately looked at the three team leaders of the first, seventh and eighth working faces.
"Old Sun, just tell me straight, how confident do you think Ye Mu is?" The foreman of the first work surface was also an old man, but he was rather thin.
The foreman of the seventh work surface was a middle-aged man, who looked at Sun Hanqing expectantly.
The foreman of the eighth working face was a strong young man. "I'm willing to give it a try."
"At least 90%!" Sun Hanqing made the final decision.
The foremen of the three work surfaces looked at each other and then looked at Sun Hanqing.
"Old Wu, Xiao Niu, Xiao Hai, if you have any ideas or opinions, please speak up." Sun Hanqing looked at the two of them with burning eyes, while secretly calculating the time.
Ye Mu was trying to find a way to delay their meeting, but they hadn't made any progress at all!
"I just want to know what method he has planned, otherwise I can't make a conclusion." Old Wu said solemnly.
"Yes, I had the same idea." Xiao Niu nodded.
Sun Hanqing shook his head. "Unless you promise that after listening to my story, whether you want to join or not, you will keep this secret to yourself."
Old Wu, Xiao Zhang and Xiao Hai nodded without hesitation.
Sun Hanqing then said, "Xiao Niu, the depths of your seventh working face collapsed during mining, exposing it to the sun, right?"
"That's right."
Xiao Niu continued, "I was startled at the time, but when I saw the warm sunlight shining through the mine, I immediately wanted to rush out... but the centurion spotted me."
"Ye Mu's plan is to collapse the mine." Sun Hanqing smiled.
"this……"
Old Wu, Xiao Niu and Xiao Hai all held their breath at the same time.
Collapsing the mine is a good idea.
However, when a mine collapses, it will cause loud vibrations and may also cause large-scale collapse, resulting in casualties.
This is only secondary.
What’s important is…
