I knew it was useless to beg for mercy, so I simply gritted my teeth and closed my eyes.
Just as the man was about to pick on my hamstring, he heard the leader say: "Stop, that's the person Mr. Bai wants. Mr. Bai can't hurt him in the slightest before he sees him. Take him back."
The person who stepped on me kicked me twice before someone blindfolded me and dragged me out of the pier with a fishing net.
Although I couldn't see, I could hear the noise. After those people dragged me to a boat and locked me up, the boat also sailed away from the dock. Moreover, I was not the only one locked up on the boat.
After the ship had been sailing for an unknown amount of time, someone dragged me from the cabin to the deck, pushed me to my knees, and then removed the black cloth covering my eyes.
Only then did I see that the boat had entered a desolate river. The boat was full of burly men wearing blue cloth. Those people all had white fish-shaped marks on their sleeves, but the number of white fish was the same as the number of white fish. The sizes are different. The person standing next to me has a white fish on his sleeve, but the people standing above me have as many as three white fish on their sleeves.
I secretly glanced around me, only to see more than a dozen people around my age kneeling near me.
After a while, a man in his fifties with two iron balls in his hand came out and sat on the Taishi chair in the middle of the deck.
A man dressed as a master came up to him and said respectfully: "Master Bai, we have got all the little workers in Abacus City who have been killing fish for three years, and there are a lot of them."
"Yeah!" Mr. Bai nodded and said, "Then let's get started!"
The master waved his hand, and someone brought out a glass fish tank larger than the bathtub in the bathhouse from the cabin, filled it with more than half of the water, and poured a strange fish into the fish tank.
The fish was as thick as a normal human thigh, and its body was at least one meter long. It seemed a bit cramped even in the fish tank. As soon as the fish entered the water, it twisted around and banged against the fish tank a few times. When it saw that it couldn't damage the fish tank, it stared at the person outside the fish tank and opened its mouth that was more than half a foot long like a scissors. Revealing two rows of white fangs.
Mr. Bai said with a smile on his face, "This little Jinzi understands human nature and knows how to get angry. Look, look."
"Let's do it! Remember to keep your mouth shut! Mr. Bai doesn't listen to people screaming."
The master waved his hand, and someone stuffed a round thing into the mouth of a young worker, tied a piece of cloth around his mouth, stripped off the young worker's clothes, tied his feet with a rope, and tied The man entered the fish tank while hanging upside down.
Before the man's head touched the water, the strange fish jumped out of the water, opened its mouth and bit the man's head. The sound of fangs gnawing on the human bones was heard through the air, and blood burst out from the middle of the fish's mouth. shoot.
Although the strange fish didn't bite the boy's head to pieces, it dropped a bloody piece of meat back into the water. The water in the fish tank was instantly stained red with blood.
The master said coldly: "Throw it into the water."
After the man on the boat put the boy down, he stabbed him in the stomach before throwing the body off the boat.
Several people around me were so frightened that they all fell to the ground. Some even cried loudly. The master said in a ferocious voice: "Master Bai doesn't like making noise. Whoever dares to cry will be put into the fish tank first."
"Pull out the first one who cries and let him go."
After another person was dragged out, no one on the ship dared to cry.
After a while, five people died on the boat, and the water in the fish tank was so red that the strange fish could not be seen.
Master Bai's face also darkened, and he clattered the two iron gall bladders in his hands: "Master, didn't you say that people who have been killing fish for three years will not dare to eat the small gold? What's going on? thing?"
The master wiped the cold sweat from his head and said: "Maybe... maybe the fish they killed were not big enough."
"I don't want to hear anything about yes or no." Mr. Bai said with a gloomy face: "Try three more people. If you still can't scare Xiao Jinzi, I will throw you into the fish tank."
The master's face turned pale with fright: "Which one of them has been killing fish the longest?"
Someone pushed me out and said, "It's just him. He has been killing fish in Baihe Tower for five years. He can kill two big buckets of fish in one day."
Master pointed at me: "It's him."
Someone came up to me and tried to stuff something into my mouth. I shook my head and said, "No, if I shout, I will be the one raised by you."
Am I not afraid of death? I'm afraid!
However, when he was in the gang, he was raised by this bachelor. He could not cry out for pain when he was beaten, and he could not surrender when he was beaten to death.
Mr. Bai chuckled: "Okay, bachelor, if you die, I will get you a coffin. Hang it up for me."
When I was hung upside down to the top of the fish tank, I resigned myself to my fate and closed my eyes, but I waited for a long time and didn't see the fish jump out.
The master immediately became energetic: "Quickly... try submerging him in the water."
As soon as the person holding the rope let go, my head was submerged in the water. Although I closed my mouth, the bloody and fishy water poured in from my nose, which made me feel as uncomfortable as I wanted.
However, the strange underwater fish still made no movement.
I vaguely heard Master Bai asking: "Is Xiao Jinzi full? Put him down again."
The people above loosened the rope again. As I sank into the water, I heard several loud noises coming from below the fish tank. The blood in the fish tank first shot up along my body, and then fell down again. Go down, and then I heard the sound of glass breaking.
When I opened my eyes, I saw that one of the glass windows of the fish tank had been smashed into pieces. The strange fish slid out on the deck three to five meters away in the direction of the blood flow. It put its head against the deck and bit a person with its mouth open. On his ankle, he bit off one of the man's feet.
The man was holding his broken leg and rolling on the ground screaming, but Mr. Bai stood up, patted the master on the shoulder and said with a smile: "You're good at this. Take him down and feed him well. Only by strengthening his body can he live longer." .”
"Take care of this place and try again."
Someone untied me and took me into a closed cabin. I lay in the cabin for a while before I heard something moving outside.
I quietly moved to the door and put my ear against the wall. I heard someone outside say: "Change the porcelain bowl into a wooden plate. Don't give him chopsticks. Let him grab it with his hands. Mr. Bai wants this person to be of great use. If Let him cut our necks with porcelain pieces and die, and Mr. Bai will have to skin us alive."
The man who delivered the food outside left, but I heard another guard ask: "Brother, what does Mr. Bai want to do with so many fish-killing brats?"
The man said mysteriously: "I heard that Mr. Bai has found a treasure. However, there is a golden angler watching that place. If you can't scare that golden angler away, our Baiyu Gang is very powerful." There’s no way I can touch that treasure.”
