"Bang" With the crisp sound of the leather whip on Xiuwen's body, Xiuwen, who was struggling to carry the stone, let out a miserable scream, and a blood mark suddenly appeared on the back that was covered by shabby clothes.
The stone that Xiu Wen was carrying in his hand almost fell, and Zhang Tie, who was standing next to him, hurriedly stretched out a hand to help him stabilize.
"You untouchables, don't try to be lazy with me, hurry up, clear this area for me, and see if anything is found," the slave warden who stood on a stone shouted loudly, "If you don't find the untouchables who escaped, you will exhaust me to death here" Zhang Tie turned his head to look at the slave prisoner, and the slave prisoner whipped over without hesitation, hitting Zhang Tie, glaring at Zhang Tie fiercely, "Boy, if you look at me again, I'll gouge out your eyes."
Zhang Tie's body trembled, but that whip was nothing to Zhang Tie, in the past month or so, under the "beating" of the Fool airship crew, Zhang Tie ate three more iron fetal fruits, after eating these three iron fetal fruits, Zhang Tie felt that his body's ability to withstand blows had increased a lot.
In the past, when Zhang Tie was whipped in Tianhan City, he could endure it, not to mention that at this time, the punishment that was unbearable for ordinary people was like being swatted by a fly to Zhang Tie.
At this time, it was not when he was angry with these scum, Zhang Tie didn't speak, but lowered his head, re-lifted the stone weighing more than 50 kilograms in his hand, pretended to be difficult with others, and moved the stone in his hand to the slope over there and threw it down "Ah, thank you" Xiuwen inhaled the cold air and said to Zhang Tie gratefully.
The two of them walked to the slope and threw the stone down, Xiu Wen glanced at the slave prison in the distance, and found that the guy didn't notice the situation here, so he quietly handed Zhang Tie a kettle hidden in his clothes, "Drink a little, it's been more than ten hours, I see you haven't drunk a sip of water" "Thanks, I don't have to" "Ah, your physical strength is so good" Xiu Wen glanced at Zhang Tie with some envy, and then quickly opened the kettle and took a small sip, and after seeing a few people with teeth hanging on their necks carrying stones over, he hurriedly hid the kettle in his hand, and continued to walk with Zhang Tie towards the pile of rocks in the distance.
The captives, with teeth hanging around their necks, carried a few smaller stones, and though they were also working as coolies, they were given proper privileges, sometimes even rested, and the whip of the slave was rarely drawn on them.
"Be careful of these people" After the few guys with teeth on their necks walked away, Xiu Wen whispered to Zhang Tie, "Those people have begun to eat human flesh, they have become beasts, as long as they can live, no matter what they are asked to do, they will not hesitate to do it, once these people become slaves, they will be more ruthless to us than the demons."
Zhang Tie nodded, once some people succumb to evil, they will become accomplices and thugs of evil, and they will show the dark side of human nature even more, and how to make a bunch of people divide and start infighting, so that human beings can consume their own strength, the demons and those miscellaneous people of the Three-Eyed Society are already familiar with this.
Under the high pressure of the slave prisoners, the Terran captives have been working for more than ten hours in a row, but they still haven't found anything hidden underground secret passages or cracks in the ground, Zhang Tie found that the demonized puppets in the demonized puppet camp also took action, and began to rush into those dark caves in teams, looking for the whereabouts of the missing Terran captives everywhere.
Zhang Tie knew that they would never be able to find those people, and no one would be able to think about where those people were hiding.
And thinking that those people had escaped somewhere in the underground space and hidden, this was good news for Zhang Tie, which meant that no one could still detect the intrusion of his stranger.
With the departure of the demonized puppets of the brigade, the camp of the demonized puppets became relatively empty, and before leaving here, Zhang Tie had already made up his mind to give those miscellaneous people of the Senel family a "surprise".
The mushroom is a similar thing to the mushroom on the ground, the whole body of the mushroom is red, like a bright red umbrella, in this underground space, in those warm, humid and relatively backlit places, such as those crevices of the 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, and the most important reason is that all the Terran captives, when they see the fire mushrooms, no matter how big or small the fire mushrooms, will not wait until the fire mushrooms are completely ripe, and with the ability to release the seeds left by the robes, they have already pulled up the fire mushrooms, so that the fire mushrooms have lost the ability to continue to reproduce.
An hour later, when he was moving a stone away, Zhang Tie saw a red umbrella cover in the soil beneath the stone.
Zhang Tie hadn't moved yet, Xiuwen and a few captives next to him saw it, and immediately pounced, grabbed the fire mushroom and stuffed it into their mouths, in a panic, Xiuwen himself stuffed a chew into his mouth, and then grabbed one and handed it to Zhang Tie.
"Eat it" Looking at the way others gobbled up, Zhang Tie only hesitated slightly, and put the fire mushroom in his mouth, the taste of the fire mushroom was like some green bagasse, slightly bitter and cold.
"You untouchables, don't hurry up and get to work" Seeing the chaos that was taking place here, a slave warden rushed over with a whip and whipped it indiscriminately, dispersing the crowd of people who were snatching the mushrooms and getting everyone back to work.
After another seven or eight hours, when more than eighty percent of the Terran captives were not even able to walk, no matter how beaten by the slave prisoners, did the hard labor that lasted for a whole day be over, and all of them regained the opportunity to rest and sleep again.
Although many of the captives "escaped", and the people of the Senel family were also angry, in order not to completely exhaust the remaining Terran captives, after squeezing everyone's physical strength and finding nothing in a row, the people of the Senel family still had to let all the Terran captives start to rest.
Zhang Tie returned to a cave with Xiuwen and more than forty captives, all of whom were left with the strength to lie on the ground and gasp.
There was one more person in the cave, and the others didn't seem to care, and it seemed that the number of people here was constantly changing.
The cave where these human captives rested gave Zhang Tie the feeling of being like an underground black prison in Black Flame City, the air in the cave was filthy, and there was a strange smell, and the red light of the river of magma in the distance reflected some from the entrance of the cave, shining on the top of the cave, so that there was a little light in the cave, so that he could not see things at all.
After resting for a while, some of the people who had regained a little strength struggled to find food out of the cave again, while others took something strange, dry from their clothes and ate it.
Seeing a person next to him holding something like a rat's tail and chewing hard, Zhang Tie almost retched.
Xiuwen, who had rested for a while, also left the cave and went to the water source outside to fill a bottle of water and came back.
Xiu Wen 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 still didn't feel too hungry.
Zhang Tie found that the bagasse-like mushrooms began to ferment and swell when they were eaten in people's stomachs, making you feel "full", but in fact, the body did not get so much nutrients and supplements.
"Peter, you say, is there really a secret passage or a crack in the ground hidden underground?"
Xiuwen asked Zhang Tie.
"Maybe," Zhang Tie said vaguely, "Anyway, those people have already left here."
"If we find any clues, don't say it, just treat it as if we didn't find anything," Xiu Wen whispered.
Zhang Tie looked at him and nodded.
"There are fewer and fewer fire mushrooms and those things that can be found underground, so if there are a few people who can survive, a few people will survive," Xiu Wen said pessimistically.
"Don't you believe you can live?"
"No one can leave here unless they become lackeys of the demons and beasts that eat human flesh."
Xiu Wen said, and quietly took out a small piece of black and brown from his body and gave it to Zhang Tie, "This is what I prepared for myself, mine is enough, this piece is for you" "What is this?"
"A kind of curax mushroom that grows underground, I occasionally found it a few days ago, it contains very high levels of highly toxic muscarinic substances and a hemolytic toxin, as long as this small piece is eaten, it can make you die in a few minutes, and after you die, your corpse also contains highly toxic substances, those beasts will not use your corpse as food, so that you can leave a whole corpse after death, and when it is absolutely necessary, this thing will make you suffer less."
"How do you know this," Zhang Tie asked Xiuwen with some curiosity.
"I used to be a botanist," Xiu Wen smiled wryly.
Zhang Tie took the piece of things that had been killed in his hand, and in front of Xiu Wen, he crushed it to pieces, and then blew it off "You" Xiu Wen glared at Zhang Tie, as if he was a little angry.
"I promise you, you won't use this stuff, and I won't use it."
"It's all this time, what guarantee do you have" Xiu Wen looked at Zhang Tie with an alien eye.

"Do you believe in miracles?"
"From the day we were brought here, the miracle died" "Maybe when you fall asleep, open your eyes again, and a miracle will happen, people, you must not lose your dreams and hopes" "Go to sleep, save up some strength for Mingdian" Xiuwen sighed, curled up, and lay on the ground.
Zhang Tie also lay on the ground, and after swallowing a few mouthfuls of the all-effect potion and water "carried" from the Black Iron Castle, he silently closed his eyes, regained his physical strength and energy, and at the same time refilled the few divine runes in the sea of consciousness, so that he was in the best condition, while waiting for most people to fall asleep:
