The man's sinister smile spread throughout the mine.
Then, all I saw was the barbed whip flying towards the children.
"ah!"
Zhang Xiaodi happened to be standing in front of the side, closest to the whip, and he subconsciously used his arm to block it.
His arm was hooked by the barb and blood immediately flowed out.
Shen Yulin, who was standing next to him, also had his forehead scratched.
"Lao Xu, stop it now, you are committing a crime!"
"You're old enough to be this girl's grandfather, but you don't even let the little girl go. Are you still a human being?"
It turned out to be the hunchbacked old man. He raised his waist angrily, but he couldn't straighten it.
"Hmph! Wang Tuozi, they won't survive if they enter the mining area, so why not let me have some fun!"
The man named Lao Xu was very unhappy, staring at the hunchbacked old man with his big eyes.
The other party didn't care at all:
"They are on a mission. They can survive by digging more ore. You have cut off their escape route. If you do this again, I will tell the village head."
The man stared at Wang Tuozi with hatred in his eyes: "You'd better protect them at all times!"
After saying that, he flicked the whip in his hand and left.
"Children, hurry up and dig. Dig more today and exchange more for food..."
The old man talked for a long time, but in the end he didn't know what to say.
After sighing, he left.
Chen Xinli stared at the old man's back as he left.
Until the only sounds left in the mine were the quiet echoes of footsteps and the knocking sounds of other mines.
The surroundings became quiet, and Chen Xinli took out the hemostatic medicine from the space while it was dark in the mine.
Sprinkle it on Zhang Xiaodi's wound and bandage his arm.
Then I checked the third brother's forehead. Fortunately, the wound was not deep, so I sprinkled some medicine powder on it.
"Let's get to work!"
Several children each found a piece of ore and started hammering it.
Chen Xinli asked her second and third brothers to help her keep watch.
She quickly entered the space and unexpectedly found that another grid was lit up in the small room.
But she was anxious to find Ah Hua, so she didn't care.
"Ahua, Ahua, wake up quickly, I need your help."
But Ah Hua was still sleeping.
Helpless, Chen Xinli had to withdraw.
As soon as she left, golden rays of light began to appear on Ah Hua's body.
Moreover, the gold content in the ore area where they are located is gradually disappearing.
After about two hours, the knocking sounds gradually became less frequent.
I guess it was around noon.
The guards were also lazy and went to eat.
Chen Xinli quickly took out steamed buns, steamed bread and water from the space and gave them to a few people, saying: "Don't ask, just eat it and eat while you work."
Zhang Xiaodi's eyes widened.
What?
It seems that Ali doesn't have much stuff with her.
And they can still take out so many steamed buns and dumplings, as well as water.
Where was this hidden and brought in?
The boy was very confused, but he also tactfully started eating.
In the mining area nearby.
Shen Fugui, Shen Fuyou and others are very serious about mining.
There are more than just a few of them in the mining area, there are others as well.
There were about dozens of people, all of them skinny and bony, and it looked like they had been digging for a long time.
"Dig hard."
Shen Fugui warned.
"We'll make detailed plans after meeting Ali and the others tonight."
Shen Fugui looked around and saw that no one was paying attention, so he spoke to Old Man Wu, Kuai Wei and others.
Li Xiang is not here at the moment.
Because the people of Linshui Village thought he would never wake up, they just left him in the farmhouse.
After all, he is a strong laborer and cannot be wasted.
If he wakes up, he will be sent to mine. If he doesn't wake up, he will be buried nearby.
So, when Li Xiang woke up in the morning and found himself lying on the ground alone, he was surprised for a moment.
But I don't understand what happened.
The wound on his arm was swollen and uncomfortable, so he fell into a deep sleep again.
The people who came to investigate saw that the man was still asleep at noon, so they ignored him.
Wu Yuehua, Zhang Fangju and Old Mrs. Wu were woken up in the middle of the night.
Perhaps because they saw that Old Mrs. Wu was indeed unable to move, the guards threw her aside casually, but still blindfolded her.
Afterwards, the two sisters-in-law of the Shen family began to passively pull the mill.
Because they were also blindfolded, they had no choice but to keep pulling the mill forward.
However, in the middle of the millstone, there are not beans, but small pieces of ore.
"Hurry up, don't even think about being lazy. If anyone dares to be lazy, I'll chop off one hand. If I catch you being lazy again, I'll chop off another one."
A woman shouted at the top of her lungs.
Zhang Fangju didn't dare to stop at all, and sighed in her heart:
Is this a den of thieves? I wonder what's going on with Ali and the others?
Wu Yuehua only took action immediately after being whipped.
The main reason was that I didn’t react at the beginning.
This village is so scary!
They either whip people or chop off their arms. It's so horrible.
Wu Yuehua, who had never seen such a scene before, was so scared that her legs were shaking.
It was her sister-in-law who told her not to be afraid and just keep moving forward.
Wu Yuehua walked in fear.
There was a constant humming sound coming from several millstones nearby.
There was also a faint smell of blood in the air.
Could it be that someone really chopped off his arm?
Wu Yuehua almost had a heart attack when she thought of her bloody arm.
There are fifteen stone mills in the mill area of Linshui Village.
From morning to night, without stopping for a moment.
After the gold ore is dug out, it is sent to the stone mill area, where another group of people will crush the ore.
