Dongfang Suo gives the supervisor a cold glance and follows Mr. Zhang to dig the ores containing gold powder. Although there are many ores, the gold that can be extracted from the ore that two people hold together is often less than one or two. Moreover, the process of extraction is very complicated. First, the ore is put into the water reef to be crushed, and then it is put into the water to be washed to remove the part that does not contain gold After such five processes, we can get a little bit of gold.

The miners here are orderly divided into six parts according to the process, just like machines without feelings, numbly repeating the same action.

As for the newly arrived miners, they are arranged to go mining. Everyone must pick up 100 Jin of ore every day, or they will be whipped by the supervisor.

"Come on! Look around again, and I'll kill you Lao Liu, who was assigned to supervise the work, pointed to old man Zhang and yelled at him in a vicious voice.

Old Zhang did not dare to retort. He repeatedly agreed and worked hard to dig the hard ores. When old Liu left, he raised his head and looked around the mine.

Dongfang Suo had noticed his abnormality for a long time and asked, "old man, what are you looking at?"

Seeing that no one around him paid attention to them, Mr. Zhang sighed: "you are a good man, and I will tell you the truth. As early as three years ago, my son was forced to come here to mine. At the beginning, he was able to go home every ten days, but since three months ago, he has never been allowed to leave the mine again. I came here I just want to see him for the last time, even if... " He blushed and said in a trembling voice, "even if it's a corpse."

Dongfang Su sighed and comforted: "lucky people have their own appearance. Don't worry too much about old people."

Old man Zhang pathetically said: "what good people, what heaven, although the old man did not read books, also know that this is a hoax, this world has long been a mess."

Listening to what he said, Dongfang Su felt very sad and could not reveal his identity. He only said, "don't be so pessimistic, old man. I When I was in Jinling, I heard people say that your majesty is not a fatuous monarch. He still has our common people in his heart. "

"Who knows." Zhang answered casually. It can be seen that he didn't think much of dongfangsu's words. He looked at the devastated mine and murmured: "I only know Lingyang It's ruined. "

This is not the first time that old man Zhang has said such a thing, but every time it is more painful and despairing than before. Although the mountain is full of torches and the mine is as bright as day, in his eyes, the whole mine and even the whole Lingyang are dark, without any light or hope.

A young man, who looks swarthy because of the rain and wind all day long, pushes the ore cart to this side and urges: "load the chiseled stones..." In the middle of the speech, he suddenly stood there, staring at the old man, trembling: "Dad?" This title made old man Zhang tremble all over his body. He rubbed his muddy eyes and stared at the dark young man. At the moment when he saw it clearly, tears came down and he cried: "yuan'er Really far away You're still alive. Dad finally sees you! "

"Daddy Zhang Yuan was also full of tears. He cried with old man Zhang. After crying for a while, he calmed down a little. Zhang Yuan took them to a quiet place and said anxiously and nervously, "Dad, how can you be here? Did they catch you?" With that, he said bitterly, "these crazy animals are not even willing to let go of old people."

Old man Zhang wiped his tears and choked: "it doesn't matter. Dad is satisfied to see you again, but it's a pity Dad can't help you

"Dad, don't worry, I have..." In the middle of the story, Zhang Yuansi thought of something and looked at Dongfang Su warily, "who is he?"

Old man Zhang remembered that he had not introduced him. He said: "this is what I met in the field. His surname is Fang. He came to Lingyang to do business. Just call him the seventh master of Fang."

"Business?" Zhang Yuan looked up and down at dongfangsu, his eyes full of doubt.

Mr. Zhang didn't notice this, so he said, "yes, he's very nice. Thanks to him today."

After listening to the whole story, Zhang Yuan said: "Dad, you are still grateful to him. If it wasn't for his trouble, you would not have been caught to suffer."

"You can't say that, and then..." Old man Zhang looked at him lovingly, "my father is willing to come here. Since your mother passed away in childbirth, my father has been with you all the time. Now I have to go to huangquan road. How can I do without my father. My father's only regret is that he didn't save enough betrothal gifts early to marry you a daughter-in-law, which can also leave some blood for our Lao Zhang family. "

Compared with Zhang's pessimism, Zhang Yuan seems very calm, "Dad, don't worry, we won't go that way." With that, he took a cold look at Dongfang and said, "let's go there and talk."

Knowing that he was avoiding dongfangsu, he was about to speak when the pain of skin cracking made him unable to stand up and fell to the ground.

"What are you doing?" Zhang Yuan glared at the old six who was holding the whip.

"For what?" Lao Liu put out his tongue and licked the bloody stains on the whip. The next moment, the whip lashed Zhang Yuan, "if you don't work here, you can whisper, and you dare to ask me what I do, don't you want to smoke?"At this time, old six seemed to think of something, staring at old man Zhang, who had not yet recovered from the pain, and said with a smile, "I said how can you have such a good time. I dare to come here to find my son. My wishful thinking is really loud." At this point, his face suddenly cold, Li said: "old man, dare to play with us, see I don't kill you!"

Zhang Yuan protected old man Zhang and didn't dare to speak out. He had been here for three years, and he knew too well the nature of these supervisors. The more he resisted, the more they fought. If his father hadn't suffered just now, he would not have blurted out.

Just as Zhang Yuan was about to be whipped, Dongfang Su stood in front of them. Lao Liu's eyes glared and his face was not good. He said, "why, do you want to be beaten?"

"I dare not." Dongfang Su said with a smile, "no matter why the old people come to the mine, it's always good to have one more person to help you work, don't you think?" As he spoke, he took off the silver ring he was wearing on his middle finger and put it into Lao Liu's hand. "This thing is worth a little money. Please give me a hand."

There are some things in his hand. Lao Liu's face suddenly looks better. He glances at the East and says: "you learn fast."
