Binh Duong Order

"Dare to be lazy! Hurry up and work!" The guard whipped down, and a bloodstain was drawn directly on the back of Ye Shulin's neck. The scattered hair drooped down, and some hairs on the back of the head had absorbed sweat and accidentally brushed the broken skin. It was hot and painful, but it was such a little pain. After these days, Ye Shulin had long been used to it. Dirty, old and ill-fitting rags and clothes continued to add firewood to the stove, the iron chains on his hands rattled, and the thin scars that had formed on Ye Shulin's wrists were worn away again, and the exposed arms And conspicuous blisters.

The watchman saw Ye Shulin quicken his movements, turned his head to look at Li Boyan next to him, and was very satisfied when he saw Li Boyan chopping firewood hard. This person is much more diligent than that one, and he does things quickly. The middle-aged woman who was cooking, whipped her whip and said, "Hurry up!"

The whip was about to fall, the woman didn't dare to hide, Ye Shulin happened to be going to get firewood, the whip fell on him like this, Ye Shulin half knelt on the ground in pain, the guards only felt happy, After taking a sip, he cursed and said: "Yes! Just because I have a good appearance, I will show off my power, and if I don't give you some trouble, I really treat myself like a dish!"

After scolding, he was not satisfied, so he gave him a few whips before leaving. As soon as the guard left, the woman hurried over to help Ye Shulin up, and said worriedly: "Son, get up quickly, sit down and rest for a while."

Li Boyan kept chopping firewood without stopping. If someone passed by and heard that there was no movement from them, they would suffer again. This is the second day they came here, and Li Boyan still understands this.

"It's okay." Ye Shulin stood up and moved the firewood over, and continued to light the fire: "Aunt Wu, cook quickly, or those mad dogs will bite people again later."

The place where they are now is in a cave, where the sun is not visible, only a brazier is lit, and they don't know how long they have been in there.

When they just woke up, Ye Shulin didn't feel anything about being fed soup by these people, but Li Boyan said that he didn't know what these people added to the soup, and his martial arts and internal strength could not be used at all.

Seeing Ye Shulin and Li Boyan's good looks, these people originally wanted to sell them, but Ye Shulin kept running away and resisting, but refused to be honest. Although he was trained so that he would not fight back when he was beaten or scolded, he understood. He shut up and was beaten, but the guards also saw the unyielding in his eyes, and they threw him into the kitchen for fear of selling him out.

On the way to the kitchen, Ye Shulin passed a large and open place, but no one else saw it except the guards, but found that there were many racks for weapons in the open space. After seeing it clearly, he was pushed to the kitchen.

There are five stoves in the kitchen, but Aunt Wu is the only one eating in Zhangluo. Ye Shulin and Li Boyan are sent to be helpers. Washing and cutting vegetables are fine. Ye Shulin watches how Aunt Wu does and learns from them Yes, but where would Ye Shulin light a fire?Li Boyan originally wanted to change with him, but the guards wanted to embarrass Ye Shulin, so whip after whip came down, and Ye Shulin really found out a little way to light the fire smoothly.

The guard left, and Aunt Wu, who was cooking, lowered her voice to comfort the two of them, "Don't worry, there are not as many people as before. This meal is easy to make, and it will be ready in a while."

Ye Shulin didn't talk to him, his mind was full of thoughts on how to get out.

Li Boyan kept his hands on his hands, and asked, "Were there many people in this place before?"

"No." Aunt Wu replied: "In the past, all five stoves were in use in the kitchen, and there were more than [-] people in the kitchen. Look, now, there are only three of us."

"Why? Where did those people go?" Li Boyan continued to ask.

"I don't know, it's just that not long ago, someone came to the kitchen and took the others away, leaving me with only three people, and then only let us cook for a dozen people, I didn't know that these people went out Yes." Aunt Wu replied.

"Are there only a dozen people here?" Ye Shulin grasped the key point. If there were only such a few people, it should not be difficult to escape.

"Ouch!" Aunt Wu seemed to know what Ye Shulin was thinking, and quickly persuaded, "Don't try to escape, there is only one exit in this cave, and no one can escape after being guarded. The two of them just wanted to run out because there were few people, but they were caught and tortured for a day and a night before they died, which is miserable." At that time, Aunt Wu and the others were all called to watch the torture, in order to make an example to others. , so it was suppressed.

"Aunt Wu." From Ye Shulin's point of view, rather than staying in this dark place, it's better to gamble. Even if it cost his own life in the end, it's a worthy death, so he couldn't understand Aunt Wu's words: "Haven't you thought about escaping?"

Aunt Wu smiled and said, "Why are you running away? They paid me to work, and they took all the money. How can there be any reason to run away?"

"Aunt Wu, how did you come here?" Li Boyan asked.

"People here paid half a penny to buy me to cook." Aunt Wu sighed and said, "Five years ago, all the seedlings in the field died, and the children in the family were about to starve to death. At that time, I thought that if my doll died, I’m afraid I would follow it. Fortunately, people here said that they wanted the doll in the buyer, and the doll’s father and I were reluctant, so they asked if they could buy me. I was also lucky. Well, they happened to be short of servants who could cook, so they bought me, and the doll in the family survived, so I am very grateful to them."

"Half money?" Ye Shulin felt ridiculous after hearing this: "How much is half money? Can you buy a living person? These people are so vicious, how can you thank them?"

"It's a lot of money." Aunt Wu retorted: "My baby can survive well, and you too. If you are young, don't be tempted to think about it. The food and drink here are good, as long as you are obedient. Can't suffer."

Ye Shulin didn't speak anymore, because in his opinion, the words were not speculative, and he didn't expect someone like Aunt Wu to understand him. He just buried his head in the fire, and Li Boyan continued to chat with Aunt Wu: "Aunt Wu, you You’ve been here for so long, do you know what these people do?”

Aunt Wu shook her head and said, "I don't know, I've been staying in the kitchen since I came here, and I've been watched by people when I'm resting and convenient, and I don't go out of the kitchen very often, so I don't dare to ask more questions. Well, but speaking of it, I can’t understand many people here, even some people working in the kitchen can’t understand what they are saying, and I don’t know what they are talking about.”

Ye Shulin lowered his head and organized what he knew now. There used to be many people in this place, but later, without knowing what happened, there were fewer people. They were arrested, which may have something to do with this. The people here are not from I caught it in one place, no, I know too little information, I need to continue to collect and see if there are any gaps, since someone can escape, I am sure I can too, he is not those brainless reckless, absolutely not will be caught.

While talking, Aunt Wu had already cooked the meal. Aunt Wu asked Ye Shulin and Li Boyan to share the meals with him, pack them one by one, and after the six boxes in front of them were packed, she said to them: "OK Now, someone will come to take away the rice, let's eat." After speaking, one of them brought them a big porcelain bowl and asked them to add rice and vegetables by themselves.

Ye Shulin was holding a porcelain bowl, squatting on the ground, pawing at the rice in the bowl one by one, and his mind began to come alive. He just looked at it, and they had a total of twelve servings of rice, which means that there is only There are only twelve people, that's not too many, if you can avoid the crowd and go out to see the terrain.

The kitchen door opened, and two thin children came in and asked Aunt Wu, "Aunt Wu, is the meal ready?"

"Ready." Aunt Wu saw the person standing up and handed the lunch box to him and said, "Hold it carefully."

The two children took the lunch box and turned their heads to see Ye Shulin who heard the movement squinting and looking at them, panicked, why is he here?

Although Ye Shulin is in a mess now, but his appearance is so brilliant that people can't forget each other. The two children lowered their heads in a panic, and each left with two food boxes. Li Boyan finished a bowl of rice. Seeing Ye Shulin staring at the two children, he leaned closer and asked in a low voice, "What are you looking at?"

"I always feel that these two children look familiar." Ye Shulin replied, but he really couldn't remember where he met them.

"Could it be your illegitimate child." Li Boyan joked with a playful smile.

Ye Shulin glared at him, Li Boyan was fearless, he couldn't do anything to himself before, and it's the same now, he didn't panic at all, Ye Shulin knew this, so he ignored him, and continued to think about where he had met him the two children.

Not long after, the two children came in to get food boxes again, and they didn't dare to look at Ye Shulin. Ye Shulin was sure that they knew him too. In order to prove his idea, Ye Shulin even pretended to talk to They looked at each other, and one of them turned his head away in a panic, while the other was quite calm, but after all, he was a child, and his slightly trembling fingertips were still exposed.

After the two left, Ye Shulin recalled all the scenes where he had communicated with the children, and suddenly remembered what happened not long ago.suddenly realized.

When the two children came over for the last time and were about to leave with the food box, Ye Shulin suddenly said two words softly: "Bell." The two children hurriedly glanced at Ye Shulin in panic when they heard the words. It was fleeing.

The reaction of the two of them not only allowed Ye Shulin to confirm that these two children were two of the three little beggars he and Gu Cheng met at that time, but also made him understand that there was definitely something wrong with the bell they gave.

Ye Shulin guessed right, these two children are Xiao Zhi and Xiao Zu, they and Xiao Chang were arrested and brought to this place after taking money that day, when they woke up, Xiao Chang was not with them At the same time, not only the money was taken, but they were also left by the guards here to do chores such as delivering meals and washing clothes.

I suddenly saw Ye Shulin here today, thinking that Ye Shulin fell to this place because of the bell they gave him, how could he not panic, there is guilt, but he is even more afraid of Ye Shulin's revenge on them.

The two spent the night in fear, and when they went to pick up breakfast the next morning, they found that Ye Shulin was normal, as if he didn't recognize them, the two half-old children finally breathed a sigh of relief, thinking That's right, even though they live under the fence now, they are much cleaner than at that time, and it is common for Ye Shulin not to recognize them.

The two children let go of their vigilance and stopped avoiding Ye Shulin, so when they were waiting for dinner, Ye Shulin asked them casually: "Why are there two of you? Is there another one?"

"I don't know." Xiaozu replied without thinking, "I didn't see it when I woke up." After speaking, I realized something was wrong.

Ye Shulin succeeded: "It really is you."

Xiaozu knew that he had made a slip of the tongue and turned around and wanted to run. Ye Shulin wanted to hold him back, but his body was injured, and his heart hurt when he moved. Li Boyan couldn't bear it, so he helped him block the door. Xiaozhi and Xiaozu There was no way to avoid it. Standing in the kitchen at a loss, Aunt Wu came up to comfort the two of them and said, "Don't be afraid, child, take a good look, Xiaoye is your acquaintance, do you remember?"

When Ye Shulin was going to rest yesterday, he deliberately mentioned to Aunt Wu that Xiaozhi and Xiaozu seemed to be people he knew. Today, he wanted to confirm that Aunt Wu was enthusiastic and came to help as soon as she heard it. The ability to be reassuring and kind, and with Aunt Wu's joining, Xiaozhi and Xiaozu are no longer vigilant like before, and have relaxed a lot visible to the naked eye.

"That's right." Ye Shulin immediately chimed in and said, "You gave me a bell in the waste pit outside the city, remember? You were caught in anyway."

After hearing what Ye Shulin said, Xiaozhi immediately realized that Ye Shulin didn't find out about the bell, and he came to test them because he felt kind to the acquaintances in this place, and when he understood this, Xiaozhi immediately pretended to be Suddenly realized: "Oh, I remember, have you been arrested too?"

Afraid that Xiaozu would reveal his secrets, Xiaozhi pinched him quietly, Xiaozu immediately reacted and said, "So it's you, we didn't even recognize it."

"It's difficult for you to recognize my ghostly appearance now." Ye Shulin laughed at himself, and then asked: "Why are you here? There is another child?"

Xiaozhi said: "We've been staying in the kitchen for too long now, we'll be beaten if we go out late, we'll find a way to come earlier tomorrow, and then we'll talk to you in detail, do you think it's okay?" Lin didn't know about Ling Dang, and Ye Shulin was arrested just like them, so Xiao Zhi also had some subtle emotions. It was really not easy to meet an acquaintance in this ghostly place, besides, the last time he met At that time, Xiaozhi felt that Ye Shulin was a good person, and with the addition of a child, he easily let go of his guard.

Ye Shulin didn't force him to stay. He handed them the food box and sent them away. When it was time for lunch the next day, the two of them came a little earlier. Staying in the kitchen for a while, Li Boyan was afraid that someone would come, so he took firewood and chopped it at the door, firstly to cover up their voices, and secondly, if someone came, he would be able to find out.

Aunt Wu was pressed on the sleeping point by Li Boyan. Although Li Boyan lost all his martial arts skills, he still remembered these things. Since Aunt Wu didn't want to escape, they couldn't implicate her, it was also to protect themselves.

Xiao Zhiyin told Ye Shulin about the bell that they were arrested after being fainted, so they didn't know where it was.

Ye Shulin asked them since they were in charge of delivering food, do they know how many guards there are here, Xiaozhi heard something was wrong and didn’t answer immediately, Ye Shulin asked them directly if they wanted to escape, Ye Shulin saw it yesterday, although two The person is much cleaner than when he was a beggar, but the large and small bruises on his body are comparable to those on his body, which shows that the two of them are not living well here. Aunt Wu has never suffered here, and she does not want to escape. It's also true, Ye Shulin doesn't believe that these two don't want to leave.

Sure enough, hope appeared on Xiaozu's face when he heard the words, and Xiaozhi looked hesitant, but he could also see his heartbeat.

Xiaochang's whereabouts are unknown, and there is still a money in their family who needs money. Xiaozhi is always thinking about how to get out. Some people say that it is good to help him, but this person is also in prison just like himself. How should Xiaozhi believe it? He has the ability to escape.

Ye Shulin understood Xiaozhi's worry, and said: "I always have to fight. I can't get out because I have been trapped here and don't know the whole picture. You can just help me fill this gap. Why don't you worry about it?" , It’s just that you can believe me.”

The sound of Li Boyan chopping wood fell into Xiaozhi's ears, clear and loud, countless possibilities and thoughts rolled through Xiaozhi's heart, and finally made up his mind: "I know."

The stone in Ye Shulin's heart fell, and with their help, things would be much easier to handle.
