    "Pa" With the crisp sound of the whip hitting Xiu Wen, Xiu Wen, who was struggling to move the stone, let out a scream. A blood mark suddenly appeared on his back, which was covered by shabby clothes.  .

    The stone Xiuwen was carrying almost fell down. Zhang Tie, who was standing next to him, quickly stretched out a hand to help him stabilize.

    "You untouchables, don't think about being lazy for me. Hurry up and clear out this area for me and see if you find anything" The slave prisoner standing on a stone yelled loudly, "If you don't  If those untouchables who escaped are found, you will die of exhaustion here"

    Zhang Tie turned his head and looked at the slave prisoner. The slave prisoner whipped him without hesitation and hit Zhang Tie. He glared at Zhang Tie fiercely and said, "Boy, if you look at me again, I will gouge your eyes out."  come out¡­¡­"

    Zhang Tie's body trembled, but that whip was nothing to Zhang Tie. In the past month or so, under the "beating" of the crew of the Idiot airship, Zhang Tie ate three more iron fruit.  After eating these three iron fetus fruits, Zhang Tie felt that his body's ability to withstand blows had increased a lot.

    Zhang Tie could bear it when he was whipped in Tianhan City in the past, let alone this time, the unbearable punishment for ordinary people was like being swatted by a fly swatter for Zhang Tie.

    This was not the time to get angry with these scum. Zhang Tie did not say anything, but lowered his head and resumed carrying the fifty-kilogram stone in his hand, pretending to walk with difficulty along with the others.  Move the stone in your hand to the slope over there and throw it down

    "Ah, thank you" Xiuwen breathed in the air-conditioning and said gratefully to Zhang Tie.

    The two people walked to the slope.  After throwing the stone down, Xiuwen glanced at the slave prisoner in the distance and found that the guy hadn't noticed the situation here, so he quietly handed a kettle hidden in his clothes to Zhang Tie, "Drink a little.  It¡¯s been more than ten hours, and I see you haven¡¯t had a sip of water yet¡­¡±

    "Thank you. I don't need to"

    "Ah, you have such good physical strength" Xiuwen glanced at Zhang Tie with some envy, then quickly opened the kettle and took a sip.  After seeing a few people with teeth hanging from their necks carrying stones, he quickly hid the kettle in his hand and continued walking with Zhang Tie towards the pile of rocks in the distance.

    The prisoners with teeth hanging from their necks came over carrying a few slightly smaller stones, although they were still doing hard work.  However, these people can receive appropriate preferential treatment.  Sometimes they can even take a break, and the slave whip rarely hits them.

    "Be careful of these people" After the guys with teeth hanging from their necks walked away, Xiuwen whispered to Zhang Tie, "Those people have started to eat human flesh. They have become beasts. As long as they  If we can survive, no matter what we ask them to do, they will do it without hesitation. Once these people become slaves, they will be even more cruel to us than the demons"

    Zhang Tie nodded, once some people succumb to evil.  They will become evil accomplices and thugs, and they will show the dark side of human nature even more. They will wonder how to make a group of people divide and start fighting among themselves, allowing human beings to consume their own strength, and those bastards from the demons and the Three-Eyed Society.  We are already familiar with this.

    Under the high pressure of the slave guards, the human captives had been working continuously for more than ten hours, but they still could not find any hidden underground secret passages or cracks in the ground. Zhang Tie discovered that the demonized puppet  The large groups of demonized puppets in the camp also took action, and began to rush into the dark caves one by one, looking for the whereabouts of the missing human prisoners.

    Zhang Tie knew that they would never be able to find those people, and it was impossible for anyone to figure out where those people were hiding.  It was thought that those people had fled to hide somewhere in the underground space. This was good news for Zhang Tie, which meant that no one could still detect the intrusion of a stranger.

    With the departure of the demonized puppets of the brigade, the camp of the demonized puppets became relatively empty. Before leaving here, Zhang Tie had made up his mind to give those bastards of the Senel family a "surprise"  .

    ¡­¡­

    The fire mushroom is something that looks similar to the mushrooms on the ground. The whole body of the fire mushroom is red, like a bright red umbrella. In this underground space, there are warm, humid and relatively backlit places.  In certain places, such as the gaps between rocks, as long as the conditions are right, they will emerge from the ground in just a day or two.

    In the past, there were a lot of fire mushrooms underground, but now there are fewer and fewer fire mushrooms. The most important reason is that all the human captives,When I saw the fire mushroom, no matter how big or small it was, I would not wait until the fire mushroom was completely mature. With the ability to release the seeds left by the robe, I had already pulled up the fire mushroom, so that the fire mushroom lost the ability to continue to reproduce.  ability.

    An hour later, while moving a stone away, Zhang Tie saw a red umbrella cover in the soil under the stone.

    Before Zhang Tie could move, Xiuwen and several prisoners saw it and rushed forward. They grabbed the fire mushroom and stuffed it into their mouths. In a panic, Xiuwen stuffed it into his own mouth.  One chewed it, then snatched one and handed it to Zhang Tie.

    "Eat it quickly"

    Seeing others wolfing down the food, Zhang Tie hesitated for a moment before putting the fire mushroom into his mouth. The taste of the fire mushroom was like green sugarcane bagasse, slightly bitter.

    "You untouchables, why don't you hurry up and get to work" Seeing the chaos happening here, a slave prisoner rushed over with a whip and started beating him randomly with the whip. He dispersed the crowd snatching the fire mushrooms and allowed everyone to start again.  Get to work.

    ¡­¡­

    Another seven or eight hours passed like this, until more than 80% of the human captives no longer had the strength to walk no matter how much they were beaten by the slave guards. The hard labor that lasted for a whole day was finally over.  Everyone was given the opportunity to rest and sleep again.

    Although many of the prisoners "escaped", and those in the Senel family were also very angry, they wanted to prevent the remaining human captives from being completely exhausted.  After squeezing everyone's physical strength and gaining nothing in a row, the Senel family still had to let all the human captives start to rest.

    Zhang Tie followed Xiuwen and more than forty captives back to a cave, and each of them only had the strength to lie on the ground and breathe.

    There is one more person in the cave, and the other people don't seem to care. It seems that the number of people here is constantly changing.

    The cave where these human prisoners rested felt to Zhang Tie like the underground prison of Black Flame City. The air in the cave was filthy and there was a strange smell.  The red light from the distant river of magma was reflected from the entrance of the cave and shone on the top of the cave, giving the cave a little light.  It's not like you can't see things clearly at all.

    After coming here to rest for a while, some people who had recovered a little strength struggled to get out of the cave again to find food, and some people took out some strange things from their clothes.  It tastes dry.

    I saw a person next to me holding something like a rat tail and chewing it hard.  Zhang Tie almost retched.

    After resting for a while, Xiuwen also left the cave and went to the water source outside to fill a bottle of water and come back.

    Xiuwen originally wanted to find something to eat, but looking at his face when he came back, Zhang Tie knew that he must have gained nothing. Fortunately, he had eaten some fire mushrooms a few hours ago, and he didn't feel too hungry now.  .

    Zhang Tie discovered that the sugarcane bagasse-like fire mushroom begins to ferment and swell when eaten in the stomach, making you feel "full".  But in fact, the nutrients and supplements the body receives are not that much.

    "Peter, tell me, is there really a secret passage or a crack hidden underground?" Xiuwen asked Zhang Tie.

    "Maybe!" Zhang Tie said vaguely, "Anyway, those people have left here!"

    "If we find any clues, please don't tell them. Just pretend that we haven't found anything" Xiuwen said softly.

    Zhang Tie looked at him and nodded.

    "There are fewer and fewer fire mushrooms and other things that can be found underground. How many people can survive?" Xiuwen said pessimistically.

    "Don't you believe you can survive?"

    "Unless you become a lackey of the demons and a beast that eats human flesh, no one can leave here." Xiuwen said, quietly taking out a small piece of dark brown stuff from his body and giving it to Zhang Tie, "This is what I did for you.  I¡¯ve prepared enough for you, I¡¯ll give this to you!¡±

    "What's this?"

    "A kind of arrow poisonous mushroom that grows underground. I accidentally discovered it a few days ago. It contains very high levels of muscarinic substances and a hemolytic toxin. As long as you eat this small piece, you can get rid of it in a few minutes.  Die, and after you die, your corpse will also contain highly toxic substances. Those animals will not use your corpse as food. This will allow you to leave a complete corpse after death. When it is absolutely necessary, this thing will make you  Suffer less pain.¡±

    "How do you know this?" Zhang Tie asked Xiuwen curiously.

      "I used to be a botanist" Xiuwen smiled bitterly.

    Zhang Tie took the dried thing in his hand, crushed it into pieces in front of Xiuwen, and then blew it away

    "You" Xiuwen stared at Zhang Tie, seeming a little angry.

    "I promise you, you won't use this kind of thing, and I won't use it either!"

    ¡°It¡¯s already this time, what guarantee do you have?¡± Xiuwen looked at Zhang Tie as if he were an alien.

    "Do you believe in miracles?"

    ¡°The miracle died the day we were brought here!¡±

    "Perhaps when you fall asleep and open your eyes again, a miracle will happen. People, you must not lose your dreams and hopes!"

    "Go to sleep and save some strength for Mingdian" Xiuwen sighed, curled up and lay on the ground.

    Zhang Tie also lay on the ground. After swallowing a few mouthfuls of the full potion and water "carried" from the Black Iron Castle, he silently closed his eyes and restored his physical strength and energy.  Replenish the few divine runes in the sea of ??consciousness to keep yourself in the best condition, while waiting for most people to fall asleep (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
