I was exiled and I took away my supplies and ran away with my whole family.

Shen Xingmian didn't see those people, so she didn't feel too uncomfortable. Moreover, she was prepared in her heart from the beginning, so even if she saw them, she wouldn't be too touched.

Shen Yunting is usually a very strong person. It was probably because he stayed in a dark environment for a long time that he suddenly lost his composure.

If she returned to the cold wind outside, her bad mood might be quickly blown away by the cold wind.

After walking some distance further, they were already far away from the ground. No, the top was not a flat bottom, but a mountain, so it was even further away.

Shen Xingmian also felt a little depressed, but it was still within the tolerable range.

Only then did she understand why her mother was so abnormal, because while she was busy and busy, her mother was quietly facing such an environment.

It's really hard on her.

She didn't say anything to let them go back first, because she knew that at this time, they would never abandon her.

In this case, it is better to act quickly, find out the situation inside, think of countermeasures, and then start taking action.

Shen Xingmian took the initiative to speed up his pace, listening to the increasingly louder digging sounds, and assessing the distance.

We were close, but the digging was so loud that we couldn't hear anyone talking.

Soon, she turned off the night light, because the light of a torch appeared not far away, and there was a guard holding a whip, standing at the position closest to them with his back turned to them.

From the looks of it, what he was guarding against was not people coming in from the outside, but preventing people inside from escaping.

Shen Xingmian saw dark marks on the whip. Although he couldn't see clearly, he guessed it was blood.

He guessed that someone ran by and was caught, or in his opinion, he didn't work hard enough and was beaten to scare the monkeys.

No matter what the situation is, it's quite excessive.

Modern miners have high wages and good benefits. If something goes wrong, their families can receive huge compensation.

When she was a child, several uncles in the village worked in the mining area. They had a sense of collective honor every day. They never asked for leave and got perfect attendance every month.

It's completely different from here.

Although the work was tiring, in those days, being able to support a family with one person's hard work was very capable and worthy of praise.

And did the group of people inside really come here voluntarily?

Shen Xingmian was a little far away and couldn't see clearly what was going on inside, so he gestured to the two people behind him and sent them back to space.

She herself dodged past the guards, stopped several times in the dark, sneaked inside, found a suitable position, and began to observe the situation.

The first thing I looked at were the workers. Although each of them was not skinny, they were not in any better condition. They were obviously malnourished.

Many people's backs are so tired that they have to dig for ore all the time. It seems that they have really become a "consumable material".

Those in high positions don't even want to give them enough food, let alone enough wages, to treat these "ants" in their eyes.

If they hadn't been hungry and weak, they would probably have wanted to let them eat the wind and drink the dew without sleeping, so that they could keep working.

I just want to spend the lowest cost to squeeze out the maximum value.

In modern times, when machines are used to replace labor, the machines have to be refueled and maintained regularly. However, the miners here are gone if they are gone. No one will feel sorry for a human life. They may also think that they are useless and can no longer persevere and create. More value.

In modern times, we also need to talk about law, but here, it is more about power.

As long as the power is strong enough, many things can be done as soon as they are done, and no one dares to control them, and no one can control them.

Shen Xingmian looked around and found that these people were all in the same condition. They were very thin, tired, and weak, but they all continued to work without daring to stop.

There were guards patrolling with whips, looking left and right, eyeing them with eagerness, as if they were going to whip their hands if they found someone slow in their movements.

Just when Shen Xingmian was thinking about where to choose as an entry point, a cursed voice came over——

"Damn, you little bastard, I'm letting you cheat and show off, so you don't work hard! Are you tired of working, huh?"

Shen Xingmian took a closer look and saw that the person being beaten was a thin young man who had no strength to resist. The whip was so severe that he fell to the ground.

The young man struggled to get up, but after trying several times, he still failed to get up.

A middle-aged man next to him staggered and rushed over eagerly. He knelt at the guard's feet and begged in a hoarse voice: "My lord, my lord! Have mercy on me, have mercy on me! This is the only child in our family. We can't beat him again." Oh! We really weren’t lazy, we were working all the time!”

He cried miserably and begged at the top of his lungs, but the man holding the whip had no intention of stopping. The front end of the whip poked the middle-aged man's face very hard, and he cursed in disgust:

"Go away! If you don't go away, I'll beat you too! Damn it, I'm most annoyed when someone tries to act like a father and son in front of an old man!

Since you love your son so much, then you should die for him, hahaha! "

After saying that, the guard moved his arms, smiled sinisterly, and struck the ground hard with his whip, splashing a trail of dust, as if to intimidate and intimidate.

The father flinched but did not move away.

Seeing that begging was in vain, he could only throw himself on the child, trying to block the fatal whip with his body, and was ready to die.

Ever since they were caught here, they have been expecting someone to rescue them every day, but they have been waiting in confusion for a long time, repeating the heavy work every day, but they still can't wait for any hope.

He thought, maybe just die. Compared with living in this hell on earth, death seemed to be a kind of relief.

He closed his eyes tightly and waited quietly for the whip to fall...

But the expected pain did not come. Instead, there was the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground behind him, and then there was the sound of breathing from all around.

He suppressed his fear and looked back, only to see that the man who had been lashing just now fell behind him, his head almost hitting his heel.

He didn't know what was going on, so he could only hug his child tightly in fear, trying with all his strength to drag him to the corner and try not to touch the guards.

Shen Xingmian was furious at this time. She knew that the situation in the mine would not be good, but she did not expect that it would be so serious.

Those guards simply used the power in their hands to the extreme. In this extreme environment, they fully experienced the joy of controlling the life and death of others.

With only a simple weapon like a whip, he could become the master of all labor.

Even if Shen Xingmian was angry, she did not act recklessly. She had already observed the distribution of nearby guards, released her parents, and planned to kill them all directly.
