In the middle of the night, the sound of explosions sounded one after another, like summer thunder. They traveled far and wide.
The violent explosion even overshadowed the roar of the steam engine. Even though they were far away, Adam still saw the flame rising into the air.
The flames soared into the sky and even turned half the sky red.
explode!
The explosion came from...
"This explosion..."
A ball of sweat broke out on Adam's face.
As a crew member on the ship, he paid silver pesos to Mr. Steven to drive the steamship, but this seemed to be different from the original agreement.
Didn't they say they were here to transport the black slaves away?
How could there be an explosion?
Are they a group of robbers?
Staring at the flames rising into the air in the distance, Adam looked there blankly. If the location was good, that would be the destination of their trip.
Such a violent explosion must have used at least several hundred pounds of gunpowder!
These Chinese people...are crazy!
"Mr. Adam, okay, we'll be there in a minute. The things that Mr. Adam told us haven't been finished yet."
Li Fugui looked at Adam with a smile. If they didn't leave, he wouldn't mind killing the chicken to show the monkeys. Brother Zhu kept him on the boat just for this reason.
"Ah, oh, oh..."
Adam and Jason swallowed nervously, and could only continue to drive the steamship absentmindedly, heading in the direction of the explosion.
"Crazy! What a bunch of crazy!"
Adam thought to himself.
No matter what they were going to do, these people must be crazy, they actually used so much gunpowder! Aren't they afraid of blowing up the earth?
At this moment, suddenly, several explosions were heard in the distance again. The continuous explosions made a ball of sweat break out on Adam's back.
These Chinese, how much gunpowder did he bring! Also, if he refuses to cooperate now, will they blow him up with his people and the ship...
For a moment, Adam felt a little uneasy.
But he soon calmed down. Compared with the risks, he rationally chose silver pesos... As long as he had the money, it didn't matter what they were doing.
…
Finally, after installing the explosives, Zhu Xianhai was busy connecting the lines.
"As long as those offices are completed, the matter is almost done!"
Compared to the wooden house here, the office building is undoubtedly sturdier. It is a masonry building.
In fact, it’s just spending a little more explosives, what’s the problem?
As for the people in the house, in his opinion, they are not human at all. These bastards in the mine are not evil masters. They abuse Chinese workers and slaves in the mine. Killing them is to eliminate the people.
Harm is to save the people from fire and water!
Killing dozens of people can save nearly two thousand compatriots!
This business is a good deal!
Because of this, his mood was extraordinarily calm, without a trace of ripples, and he just quietly twisted the wires and connected the detonator.
…
Fox was lying on the chair. As usual, he seemed to be asleep, but he was still vigilant. As a bodyguard hired by Mr. Thomas with a high salary, he had never failed to live up to his duties.
Especially now, in the safe behind him is stored the harvest of the gold mine in the past six months. In two days, Mr. Thomas will take away the gold and bring it to Rio de Janeiro. Shareholders in Rio and London are waiting for it.
With this gold.
His mission is to protect this gold!
Of course, in return, if everything goes well, he will receive a reward of 200 pounds when the gold is deposited in a bank in Rio.
This huge amount of money is enough for his family to live a prosperous life in the UK that is the envy of most people.
Suddenly, the legs on the table were lowered, and Fox sat up suddenly.
He stood up warily.
"Fernando, damn it, you idiots..."
While cursing, he came to the window and looked out. Through the moonlight, he could vaguely see someone doing something in the dormitory.
Could it be...a robber!
After pulling out his pistol and pulling the trigger, Fox aimed at the figure under the moonlight. That guy was definitely not an employee of the gold mine!
After taking aim, he pulled the trigger.
"Bah!"
The sudden gunshot made Zhu Xianhai stunned?
Where is the shooting place?
Before Zhu Xianhai could react, someone shouted loudly from the other side of the office building.
"Quick, Leon, you idiot, get up quickly... there are robbers!"
robber?
Gunshots rang out again, coming from the office building.
The sound of gunfire rang out again, interrupting his thoughts. The sound of gunfire in the middle of the night was so loud that even people in their sleep would be awakened. Listening to the movement in the dormitory, even though it was not the agreed time yet, Zhu Xianhai still
shouted.
"Quickly, withdraw, hide, hide..."
In Xiaowu and Dashan, they had just withdrawn. Seeing the guard in the dormitory about to rush out of the room, Zhu Xianhai's right hand suddenly turned the wrench of the detonator.
"boom!"
There were continuous explosions, and the sky and the earth were filled with orange in an instant. Along with the violent shock wave, the fiery red explosion flames rose into the air. The guards who had just rushed out of the door were like dolls and were instantly torn into pieces by the shock wave.
, broken limbs, broken boards, and wooden beams were blown directly into the sky.
When Fox stood up again amid the tremors, he didn't even know how he survived.
Turning around, I saw that the two rows of dormitories in front of the office building had been completely razed to the ground. Even the office building had changed its appearance. The glass windows were all broken. The shattered glass flew into the house like sharp daggers.
An unlucky half-breed had his neck cut off by a shard of glass, and blood spurted everywhere. Fox's situation was not much better, he was also injured.
Covered in blood, he looked at the burning dormitory in horror, with only astonishment in his eyes.
"Oh my God! What's going on?"
If he hadn't noticed the movement outside, he would have thought it was a powder magazine explosion. But the fact is, the powder magazine was over there in the mine!
But the explosion here?
Don't those robbers want gold?
Looking at the razed dormitory, Fox seemed to understand... They used explosives to raze the dormitory to the ground just for the gold.
Ruined!
Fox, who has lived for half his life, never thought that he would encounter such a cruel master - they actually chose to blow up everyone for gold!
These people are too cruel.
If he hadn't interrupted them, I might have been blown up into the sky. As for the gold... there's nothing to worry about the gold in the safe. It definitely wouldn't be blown up.
"Quick, quick, pick up the gun, these bandits will kill us all, Fernando, hurry up..."
Frightened, Fox yelled while pulling the guards around him who were stunned by the explosion, dragging them to the window, raising his revolver and shooting outside.
