Chapter 7 Dark Mine
Seeing people's panicked eyes, He Xiaozhuo was puzzled. He turned his eyes to monitor Zhao again, but saw monitor Zhao sitting there silently, and his face was even more sad and helpless. The other workers simply turned their heads and hung their heads heavily.
A sense of ominousness couldn't help but hit He Xiaozhuo's heart.
For a long time, Monitor Zhao sighed long and raised his head deeply. He Xiaozhuo was surprised to see that his eyes were already a little red.
"Finally," Monitor Zhao sighed, "It will come one day."
Seeing his self-spoken, He Xiaozhuo was very puzzled,
"What did you say you were coming?"
Monitor Zhao was still silent, and his head drooped deeply, as if the sky was about to fall. And I don't know who is sobbing in a low voice.
"What's wrong with you? What did you say was coming? He Xiaozhuo asked carefully and looked at monitor Zhao expectantly, looking for an answer.
Monitor Zhao was still silent, and his shoulders began to twitch involuntarily.
He Xiaozhuo was even more surprised. What could make this 50-year-old monitor Zhao and all the people in the well so pessimistic and disappointed? Even despair?
"Ban Chief Zhao, can you tell me what's coming and what makes you so scared?" He Xiaozhuo asked softly again, afraid of shocking these people.
"Disaster! What did you say about coming? It's a disaster! Disaster!" Monitor Zhao finally roared angrily, and then cried loudly, and the other few people finally couldn't help hugging each other and crying loudly.
Is He Xiaozhuo shocked, or is it the first time he saw such a group of old men crying loudly, which shows their horror and despair.
For a long time, these people finally cried enough and gradually calmed down. Monitor Zhao wiped his nose and tears with his cuffs and sighed. Then he came slowly.
"Child, in fact, you don't know that I have been here for three years. At the beginning, I also wanted to work to earn some money, but I was detained here. For three years, they have been working for them every day driven by their batons. If there is something they don't like, they will be severely beaten and corporal punishment and not even give food. Every day, they dig coal in this dark mine, dig for 12 hours and rest for 12 hours, just sleep, wake up and then dig. They haven't left here for three years, and live a dark life like this.
"Have you ever thought of running away?"
"Who wants to be a slave here? But why is it easy to escape? When you came in, you saw that there were their sentries two miles away, and even said that these ten miles were within their control. Over the past three years, I have seen with my own eyes that seven people wanted to escape, but they were all captured back. They are even more sinister and fierce to the fleeing people. Four of the seven people sold their kidneys separately, but they are still lucky because they saved their lives, and now they are arranged to operate the hoist. And the other three people, one was sold liver and the other was sold skin and bone marrow, have never seen these three people since.
Although he heard it again, He Xiaozhuo still felt horror in his heart. If he hadn't heard these words from this tearful man in his fifties, he really couldn't believe that there was such a thing in the world. I didn't expect that there would be such a dark corner under the bright universe.
"What's more terrible is that they also specially got some mentally retarded people like fools,"
"What did they do with these people? Can't you work?" He Xiaozhuo asked anxiously.
"Listen to me." Monitor Zhao continued seriously, "After they brought these people here, they first forged their identities, and then authentically bought insurance for them. Finally, put this kind of person into the well..."
"What are they going to do?" He Xiaozhuo still can't understand the routine here.
"Once such people go down to which well, which well will soon cause disasters, such as explosions or water penetration, and these people will unfortunately be killed. At this time, they will ask the insurance company to make huge compensation. Monitor Zhao spoke calmly, and it seemed that he was used to it.
He Xiaozhuo was surprised, "Are you saying that they used the lives of these mentally retarded people to defraud insurance compensation?"
"Yes."
"Damn!" He Xiaozhuo punched the coal, and the blood immediately flowed out of the cut wound. He did not use true qi, but was purely spontaneous, so he cut the back of his hand. Monitor Zhao looked at him in surprise, with a trace of surprise in his eyes, but it was fleeting. What's the use of empty blood? You are just a child.
"Isn't it right?" He Xiaozhuo asked strangely, "Are there so many people in the well that they want to be buried together for an insurance?"
"They don't want us to be buried together, so they try their best to control the extent of the accident. At the same time, they will choose to save normal people in the rescue after the accident and leave the mentally disabled people underground..."
"Conscious?"
"Conscious. You can't even let the mentally retarded survive.
He Xiaozhuo couldn't help shivering. Are these people still people?
"Are they so accurate every time? What if something big happens and rescue doesn't work?
"Then let's bury together."
He Xiaozhuo raised his surprised eyes and saw monitor Zhao's blank and helpless face. He knew that monitor Zhao and even all these people had been turned into machines.
"There is no one to care if someone dies?"
"It was originally caught and cheated. Just bury it quietly."
He Xiaozhuo finally understood why these people showed such a horrible look when they mentioned fools. The arrival of fools actually meant the arrival of a disaster.
"Then why do you have to be mentally retarded?" He Xiaozhuo was still puzzled.
"Because such people are more likely to live on the streets, but no one cares about them. And we need to work. What's more, you need to take photos and archive them. Normal people will find them in their families, but mentally retarded people may not be there, so that there will be less trouble in the future.
"In this case, the arrival of the fool may also be another disaster?" He Xiaozhuo still couldn't believe this inference.
"Definitely, why don't they make a fool? Nothing can be done."
He Xiaozhuo fell into silence, and he felt that the ominous premonition was approaching step by step.
"No, fools are only teenagers. How can they take such people to cheat insurance? Aren't you afraid that people say it's illegal employment of child labor? He Xiaozhuo suddenly screamed. Along the way, He Xiaozhuo had been repeatedly rejected by employers because he was a child, so he was well aware of the meaning of child labor.
"I didn't say that they can forge the documents, so the scene can also be forged. Who will carefully judge his age in a flesh-and-blooded body? No, besides, those who come out on the scene will also be bought by them..."
He Xiaozhuo's forehead is sweating more and more. Although he is trying to reject this possibility, Monitor Zhao's explanation still makes him unable to refute. He has repeatedly seen the scene of the fool's death, even the bloody body...
Silent. Everyone was silent, so silent that everyone's breathing and heartbeat were so real that they could really feel what was happening in the air. What is it? That's the footsteps of death.
He Xiaozhuo stood up and walked slowly to the mouth of the cave. Did he really not know how to save the fool and rush out? This is the simplest way to rush out of here, rush to the No. 4 mine, and then rush out of the No. 4 mine, but it is also the most unlikely way. Let alone how many security guards are there in each mine. How many security guards will be recruited if you go in and out like this? Besides, are these security guards just batons? There will definitely be guns. Or how can you get out of the wellhead simply?
He Xiaozhuo is not afraid of what to do with the fool. Maybe his three emperors' swords are faster than the gun, but what about the fool? Does a fool know that he can hide from guns?
So, how can we safely save the fool? He Xiaozhuo fell into meditation again. A question emerged again.
"Ban Chief Zhao, the fool is now in the No. 4 mine, and we are in the No. 6 mine, so the accident should be the No. 4 mine, right? Then why are you worried?" He Xiaozhuo is very puzzled.
"Silly boy, of course you don't know. But I have been here for three years, and I have also stayed in mine No. 4, which is opposite us and digging opposite us.
"So what?"
"That means that we are now two grasshoppers tied to the No. 4 mine on a rope. He is at that end, we are here, in the same block. As long as there is an explosion or water permeable over there, it is likely to directly affect the same thing or even collapse of the well on our side. Moreover, who can guarantee a shot after a gunshot? Our opposite side was directly blown up? We are working on the opposite side.
"You mean the No. 4 well is opposite us?"
"Yes. It's right opposite." Monitor Zhao pointed to the excavation surface in front of him.
He Xiaozhuo understood that he stopped talking and went straight to an empty place and sat down with his knees crossed. He closed his eyes and entered a state of mystery. In this way, I observed the scene of Wang Siba drinking, and also used this method to trace the scene of the fugitive being examined step by step. At the same time, I also found out the whereabouts of the fool from Brother Quan. Since the No. 4 mine is opposite, let's find out if the fool is opposite first.
A scene quickly appeared. It was a black wall. The huge bright block was round and smooth, flexible and warm, neat and generous. There was a crack in the middle, like a pure light coming out of the texture. The more it went in, the brighter it was. He Xiaozhuo drives his ideas and explores the depths of the texture step by step, but the wall is getting thicker and thicker. The deeper it goes, the heavier it is. The more it is, the more an obstacle is in front, like walking against the wind, and like falling into the depths of the mud swamp. The more you move forward, the more you have to consume your energy and true spirit. He Xiaozhuo Once I felt the hard work of the true qi, and the true qi was more like someone pulling and being mysteriously sucked in. He Xiaozhuo was shocked and hurriedly wanted to take back the true qi, but he didn't expect that the force was also pulled out by himself, or it chased it out by itself.
