"This quarry is not natural, but a place is chosen and the stones are transported here."
On the way, Ma Wei was still telling Jiang Chen about the quarry.
"The year the world was reorganized, treasures were everywhere. Some mountains collapsed during the reorganization, and attribute spiritual stones were scattered!"
"So, the major forces collected these stones and found people to mine them."
"In order to save costs, Tiecang City recruits all prisoners. If there are not enough prisoners, then we will capture young men."
"The hundreds of people in the village you are looking for are like a sheep in a tiger's mouth. In comparison, I used to, no, the Blood Killing Gang used to be kind."
While talking, Ma Wei did not forget to argue for himself.
Quarrying like this is nothing unusual, Qi Lie and Bi Qing's reactions showed that they knew it.
But I can't help but be impressed by the cost savings like Tiecang City.
"You said that those martial-level warriors cover the sky with one hand, and with one slap, everything within a hundred miles will be razed to the ground. So why do you need someone else to slap the rocks?"
Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Ma Wei muttered again.
"If we can ensure that every rock contains attribute spiritual stones, we can earn dozens of boxes a day. Even the Emperor will come to take pictures of rocks every day."
Qi Lie sneered.
Because of his own realm, Ma Wei is limited in his vision and world view.
To a martial artist, his slap is more precious than countless coolies beating him for half a month.
At this time, Jiang Chen's spiritual consciousness swept to the quarry and found Xiu'er among thousands of people.
Xiu'er's face was gray and gray, and she could no longer see the freshness she had before. There were blisters on her hands, and her delicate feet were scratched by sharp stones.
However, she did not give up hope and walked through the crowd.
"I said, you little girl is full of energy. Why is that?"
The other coolies looked at the lovely Xiu'er, and their physical fatigue was relieved, but soon they thought that Xiu'er was one of them, and couldn't help but sigh.
"Big brother will come to see us, and he will be able to save us when the time comes," Xiu'er said.
This is her hope. As long as Jiang Chen can come, everything will be solved.
"This silly boy."
People in the village have no hope, so Jiang Chen doesn't know whether he is dead or alive.
Moreover, even if Jiang Chen really comes here and explains clearly, the City Lord's Mansion may not release him.
But in the world of children, everything is black and white.
How can adults like them bear to let others dash their hopes?
"Aren't you tired? Are you still in the mood to bullshit me?"
The chatter here quickly attracted an overseer from the city lord's mansion.
This man was holding a whip soaked in chili oil, and he whipped it down regardless of the situation.
The whip fell in the direction of Xiu'er.
Xiu'er was so frightened by the sound that she stood motionless.
"Why do you even beat the child?"
There is a kind-looking uncle beside Xiu'er, but now he can't help but get angry.
He stood in front of Xiu'er and blocked the whip with his body.
The crisp sound of skin and flesh being torn apart was accompanied by screams of agony.
The supervisor didn't care who it was before taking action. He was startled when he found out that Xiu'er would be hit, but he quickly dismissed it.
After it was over, he sneered, "How dare you be brave and have the spirit of sacrifice."
With that said, he was whipped again.
"Don't hit uncle."
Xiuer was frightened and cried.
But it was of no avail, and he knocked the middle-aged man to the ground with a whip.
"What is this? Is it necessary to be so cruel?"
The coolies around him couldn't stand it anymore and gathered around him one after another.
However, this is not what many people say.
Several other supervisors with advanced levels of cultivation rushed over and scared off the coolies around them with their momentum alone.
"Haha, get up before you die."
The supervisor put away his whip and looked at the middle-aged uncle on the ground.
The middle-aged uncle couldn't move, and his bones were hurting from being hit by Xing Zun with two whips like this.
"Are you still pretending?"
The supervisor became angry and immediately took action again.
Xiu'er resolutely protected the middle-aged uncle, waiting for the whip to fall.
Something crazy happened, and the supervisor really swung his whip again and struck him down hard.
Xiu'er's weak body simply couldn't withstand this blow.
Seeing that the whip was about to fall on Xiu'er, a big hand stretched out from nowhere and caught the whip.
Immediately, people saw a young man appear out of thin air, grabbing the whip with all his strength, and the veins on his face were exposed.
"Let go!"
The arrogant supervisor did not realize that the disaster was coming and wanted to take back the whip.
But the young man didn't show how hard he tried, he just couldn't withdraw the whip.
The young man was of course Jiang Chen. He knelt down and helped the middle-aged uncle up.
Soon, he frowned. If he hadn't arrived in time, the uncle would have died of internal organ failure.
After treating the uncle's body, Jiang Chen looked at the supervisor opposite.
He is less than thirty years old, so he is considered young, his appearance is mediocre, and there is nothing outstanding about him.
"Your father should still be alive, right?" Jiang Chen asked.
"What's the meaning?"
"Would you be willing if your father were treated like this?"
Jiang Chen said angrily: "Don't you feel at ease when you attack someone who is your father's age?"
"What the hell are you talking about? I don't need you to worry about my father!" The supervisor tried several times to withdraw the whip but failed, and became a little angry.
Jiang Chen closed his eyes, said no more, and gently exerted force on his arms.
The overseer flew up from the ground and fell to the ground. The ground was covered with hard stone, but he could still bear it at the level of Star Master.
Jiang Chen used his strength again and snatched his whip away.
"You're dead! Bastard! Little bastard!"
Holding the handle, Jiang Chen looked coldly at the guy on the ground who was still cursing.
Snap!
He waved the whip vigorously, and the entire whip flashed with arcs of electricity.
It fell on this man and beat the supervisor until his whole body twitched. The curses stopped and turned into shrill screams.
Not counting this, Jiang Chen went all out and slapped him more than ten times in a row.
The supervisor went from scolding to screaming, then from screaming to cursing, and then begging for mercy.
In the end, he couldn't make a sound and was beaten to death by Jiang Chen.
It was a cruel scene, but it made people around him feel relieved.
"Well played!"
A hot-tempered coolie shouted.
As for the other supervisors, they were all frightened. When Jiang Chen looked at them, they thought of running away.
It turned out that it was too late. Jiang Chen swung the long whip. Even though it was his first time to use it, he could swing it accurately and all seventeen or eight supervisors were knocked down.
The coolies who saw this scene were all pumped up and shouting loudly.
The turmoil that occurred quickly swept through the entire quarry, and chaos spread.
