Chapter 239: Only One Meal a Day
After all, there are more than 300 tunnels on the walls at the bottom of the volcanic crater, and every tunnel is equipped with a camera.
What a huge project that would be.
And they firmly believed that the survivors could not hide anything. Xiang Yu walked in the dark tunnel with a smile on his face.
It was convenient, too convenient. She felt as if she had fallen into a golden nest.
These ores were all hers, she could take as much as she wanted. As she walked into the tunnel, she took out gloves and a breathing mask from the space.
As well as some other protective tools, the small shovel in his hand was also replaced with a more handy tool.
This little shovel really affects her performance.
There is no light in the dark tunnel, and mining depends entirely on groping in the volcanic ash with one's hands. Just dig in the volcanic ash with your hands.
Without any protection, skin corrosion will only accelerate.
There is a small sign outside the entrance of each tunnel. Once you enter the tunnel, turn the small sign over.
That would tell others that someone has already dug this tunnel.
Then they will find another tunnel to mine.
Xiang Yu took out a headlamp from the space, put it on his head and continued to go deeper into the tunnel. The front half of the tunnel was supported by support pillars.
But the second half looks a bit dangerous, with only scattered supporting pillars standing in the tunnel.
If the mine collapses, we will be buried alive.
After entering the end of the tunnel, Xiang Yu looked at the minerals growing out of the volcanic ash, as if he had seen a treasure.
He squatted down and started digging. When he got tired of digging, he took out a small stool from the space.
Sit on a stool and dig slowly.
"One, two, three, four..."
She dug faster and faster, and threw some of the defective products into her backpack.
Just use these to get the job done.
She was already sweating when the alarm rang. Afraid that she would forget the time in there, she set an alarm for herself.
I went out to complete a errand near noon, and went again in the afternoon.
At this time, the backpack was already filled with broken ore, which she had accidentally broken.
There are so many broken pieces alone, which shows how much ore she collected and put into the space.
She had dug too hard and was a little too absorbed in it, and only now did she realize that a thick layer of volcanic ash had accumulated on her shoulders.
And they all fell from above. According to her digging progress, the tunnel will probably collapse in less than two days.
Dragging the crushed ore in the backpack, Xiang Yu walked out of the tunnel. At this time, 18 cargo boxes had been filled in just one morning.
Everyone stood there and rested.
"It's already noon, why haven't they brought us food yet?" One man said exhaustedly, having been digging for ore for the whole morning.
He felt a dull pain in his fingernails. This job was simply not for a human being to do.
The old men were resting on their backpacks, and no one spoke.
"Hey, come on, talk to me. Why haven't they brought us food in the middle of the day?"
More and more people asked questions, and one of the old men who had been digging for a long time slowly said, "Don't waste your energy. They won't bring you lunch at noon."
"He has said before that his rules are that these boxes must be filled first before they will give us food."
After the old man finished speaking, he turned around and entered the tunnel with the basket on his back. Instead of wasting time arguing with them here, it would be better to save some energy.
There is still so much time left in the afternoon.
Originally they only had to fill thirty boxes a day, and every time a new person came, it was a very painful process.
Our labor force is not as good as it used to be.
“What? We’re not given any food for lunch…” The group of survivors who were forcibly brought here last night were completely furious.
"In that case, we will only be given one meal a day," and they will have to work hard during the day and endure the corrosion caused by the volcanic ash.
How can the body survive if you are only given one meal a day?
"I want to go out, I don't want to stay here, let me out, let me out..." One person collapsed and sat on the ground, crying and shouting.
He threw the backpack in his hand heavily to the ground. He couldn't stay in this shabby place for a moment longer.
But those old people were already used to it. They did not complain about any injustice. They sat down to rest for a while and then continued to be busy.
Xiang Yu poured the broken ore in the backpack into the cargo box. Instead of returning to the tunnel he had just taken, Xiang Yu chose another tunnel.
The tools she uses for mining are not small shovels or hoes, and many tunnels can only be dug once. If she digs too much, the tunnel may collapse.
He chose an empty tunnel and walked in. He put the backpack on the ground as a stool and sat on it. Then Xiang Yu took out food from the space.
He brought out another small square table and put a plate of stir-fried vegetables, a plate of shredded pork with green peppers, and a pork rib soup on it.
There were support pillars all around, no one was digging inside and there was no volcanic ash floating around. After a busy morning, she was already rumbling with hunger.
