Its daybreak.铎
Xiaozhong got up very early as usual.
Opening the door, he saw Yak was about to leave.
He nodded to Yak.
Yak forced a smile.
When he and Yak walked downstairs, they were stopped by the hotel owner at the same time:
"Hey, wait a minute."
"Is something wrong?" Xiao Zhong asked cautiously.铎
"It's time to pay." The boss said coldly.
He never looked down upon such poor people.
Xiao Zhong hurriedly said with a smile: "I'm not in good condition for the time being. I will leave it to you tomorrow, tomorrow."
"Tomorrow? Where will you get money tomorrow?"
I originally thought that if I said this, I would be driven away. Unexpectedly, the boss suddenly changed his tone:
"There's an opportunity to make money, do you want it?"
Before Xiao Zhong could answer, the boss said to Yake again: "And you, don't you want to buy medicine for your child? This time you can make a lot of money, and when you come back, I will help you buy it. It’s medicine.” Ji
Yak's eyes immediately lit up.
For the sake of his children, he is willing to do anything.
Fool, how can anything be so cheap?
Xiao Zhong thought silently in his heart.
Your money being robbed must have something to do with this boss.
wrong.
Why does the boss let himself and Yake do things?铎
They both have the same status, both have no money, and they are both from other places!
They have no relatives here, and even if something happens, no one will know them.
Could it be that what Brother Shao Yuan asked me to do, he actually figured it out so quickly by some strange combination of circumstances?
This can save you a lot of effort.
Thinking of this, Xiao Zhong quickly looked flattering, took out a crumpled cigarette from his pocket and handed it over: "I'll go, I'll go, I'll go wherever I can make money."
The boss dismissed his cigarette and pushed away: "What about you, are you going or not?"
Xiao Zhong had already vaguely guessed what was going on. It was very dangerous. Once he went there, he would probably not be able to come back.铎
But without giving him a chance to speak, Yak hurriedly said: "I'll go!"
"Okay, then let's wait here."
After the boss finished speaking, he stopped looking at them again.
The two people just stood there stupidly.
It wasn't until almost noon that I saw a truck coming.
It was almost full of people.
Like Xiaozhong and Yake, they are all poor people.铎
The driver, also a local, honked his horn.
The boss pointed at the truck and said, "Go up, they will take you there."
Then, he shouted to the inside: "Hurry up too."
What Xiaozhong didn't expect was that the woman whose business he had rejected also walked out.
When I got in the car, I realized that there was more than one woman in the truck.
…
"Where are we going?" Ji
Yak asked in a low voice.
The road we took was getting more and more desolate, and it was getting harder and harder to drive.
"have no idea."
Xiao Zhong shook his head.
That woman was sitting next to him.
When we got on the bus, it was almost full, so Xiao Zhong gave his seat to this woman. He sat near the edge of the car, where he would fall off the truck if he was not careful.
This also made the woman say "thank you" to him gratefully.铎
On the way, Xiao Zhong learned that this woman's name was Kaiya, a local, and only seventeen years old this year.
Only why she came, Kaiya didn’t know.
Anyway, she does whatever the boss asks her to do.
If you ask more, you will be greeted with a severe beating.
Shaking, Xiao Zhong calculated in his mind that he had been driving for at least five or six hours.
Already far away from Manila.
Along the way, except for stopping once for their convenience, the car was never stopped.铎
No water, no food.
Everyone is hungry.
The truck finally stopped, and the driver got out, shouting with his companion:
"Come down, all come down!"
One after another they got out of the truck.
where is this?
It is surrounded by woods and valleys and is sparsely populated.铎
When we walked into the valley, we suddenly saw Japanese troops holding bayonets and setting up machine guns.
Moreover, there is a large amount of material piled up.
The driver hurriedly walked up to a Japanese sergeant and said something flattering.
The sergeant gave several orders, and the driver kept saying "Hai".
After a while, two Japanese soldiers came carrying a basin of dark, unnamed food and a bucket of water.
The driver faced his compatriots and immediately said proudly: "It's time to eat, it's time to eat."
These people, who were so hungry that their chests were pressed against their backs, swarmed around for fear that they would not be able to grab food.铎
Xiao Zhong was young and strong, so he grabbed three pieces, squeezed them out, and summoned Yak and Kaiya to him: "Eat, look at this posture, I guess there is still work to do after eating."
Yake and Kaiya were so grateful that they didn't know what to say.
Under the constant urging of the driver, everyone finished today's dinner in three or two bites.
"Hurry up wherever you want to build a place to stay!" The driver pointed at the materials and said, "We can't finish building, so no one can sleep today."
Then, a few more people were asked to come out and be responsible for setting up tents specifically for the Japanese.
Xiaozhong calculated silently while working.
A simple temporary shelter can accommodate ten to twelve people.铎
So based on the number of buildings to be built, I am definitely not the only one coming here.
Tomorrow morning, more people will come!
A group of people were busy until dawn, and then all the work was completed.
The sergeant was obviously very satisfied and ordered everyone to have two hours of sleep.
Everyone was already exhausted. As soon as they heard this, they quickly got into the temporary tent.
Before Xiao Zhong entered the tent, he saw that the women who came with them were all grabbed by the Japanese soldiers and pulled into the tent with a grin.
Kaiya, on the other hand, became the prey of that sergeant.铎
Xiao Zhong sighed inwardly.
No one can save this kind of thing, including himself!
…
The sharp whistle instantly wakes up the sleeping people.
"Come out, come out!"
Outside, a broken gong was heard.
Everyone yawned and walked out.铎
Then I saw an unfamiliar face, with a broken gong voice and a high-spirited voice:
"Eat breakfast, lazy boy. After breakfast, follow me to work!"
The food was still the same dark stuff as yesterday.
While Xiao Zhong was eating, he glanced towards the Japanese tent.
Neither Kaiya nor the Japanese sergeant came out.
With constant urging, everyone swallowed the so-called breakfast in embarrassment.
"Follow me." Ji
"Where are we going?"
Yak just asked, but what he received was a slap that broke his voice:
"Fuck, here, it's just what I tell you to do, don't ask any more questions."
Yake covered his face and did not dare to say a word.
They were taken to a cave.
Poluoxiao divided the people into several groups and ordered them to get into the hole, clean it and expand it.
Xiaozhong and Yake were placed in the first group.铎
Until this time, Xiaozhong can basically confirm that the task assigned to him by Brother Meng will officially begin from here!
