Chapter 88 He is dying
As soon as the monsters entered the workshop, they started working automatically. Some moved the stones in the corner and threw them into the furnace, while others took shovels to throw coal into the furnace.
The fire was blazing and seemed to never go out.
There was a burning smell floating in the air, and sparks were everywhere. Within a minute, my mouth felt dry.
This place is completely different from the black-hearted factory I imagined.
Those people use weird means to turn normal people into monsters. What they do is not ordinary factory assembly line work, but this kind of primitive and backward hard work.
The nine-burner stove, which is about two meters high, is very thick and heavy. The whole body is pure black. You can't tell what material it is made of. It looks like metal or stone.
There was a gurgling sound of liquid rolling, and bursts of hot steam came out of the furnace mouth, as if something was brewing inside.
Snapped!
The sound of a whip waving came from behind. I quickly dragged Zhao Xiaohai and ran forward with all my strength, and only escaped death.
"Find a job by yourself, are you still waiting for me to arrange it for you?"
Hook-nosed stood outside and roared. He made a gesture to the side, and then the thick metal gate closed with a bang.
It's so tight that it can't be opened unless the switch is found.
The monsters were working in an orderly manner, and no one paid any attention to Zhao Xiaohai and me.
Those strange-shaped stones piled in the corner, some are black, some are red, each one is as big as a school desk and extremely heavy.
The workers who turned into strong monsters had a hard time moving, let alone me and Zhao Xiaohai.
After looking around, I found a small cart and shoveled coal into it with Zhao Xiaohai and transported it to the stove.
This is the lightest and easiest job to get away from the hot flames.
But despite this, after two trips, Zhao Xiaohai and I still felt that it was too much.
As soon as the sweat came out, it was dried by the fire. Soon I felt that there was not much liquid left in my body. My whole throat was so painful that I could hardly speak.
It’s hard to imagine how other workers persist day after day.
Just like No. 39 said, death is a beautiful thing compared to the purgatory torture here.
When Zhao Xiaohai was transporting coal, he kept observing which monster was his brother. His pale skin was burned red and his lips were chapped.
His body was already thin and he was almost unsteady after a few trips. He and I supported each other.
For me, there was one more thing that was more pressing than the physical torture.
Find the mobile phone in the Kaitan live broadcast room!
Observe while working.
There is a rectangular piece of glass on one wall of the workroom away from the stove. From time to time, there are figures shaking there. It should be the window through which the administrator supervises the workers.
There are three huge vents on the other wall. The huge fan blades rotate at high speed, making it impossible for people to climb through. These fan blades can directly break people's bones.
The only exit is the metal gate.
I observed carefully when I entered the door. There was no button or anything like that next to the gate, and I didn't see the hook-nosed man pressing the button before leaving. So the switch must be in the management room.
I looked at the long and narrow window from time to time, inferring in my mind the possibility that the glass had been smashed by a stone.
Intentionally or unintentionally, I passed by pushing the cart.
The window is two meters above the ground. The glass is about half a meter wide and three to four meters long, which is more than enough for people to climb through.
After looking at it for a while, I gave up the idea of smashing the glass.
Because a monster slipped and accidentally touched the stone in his hand against the glass, making a loud noise without leaving even a slight mark on the glass.
Neither the windows nor the metal gates nor the vents would work.
Am I just going to have to work hard here for the rest of my life?
This is impossible. As soon as the time reaches 12 o'clock in the evening, before I start the live broadcast, I will completely disappear from this world.
Perhaps, rather than suffering day after day, it would be better to disappear completely?
No, this is not my choice!
I won't admit defeat.
I tried my best to endure the physical torture, and my brain was working rapidly.
Before Hook Nose kicked me and Zhao Xiaohai out of the cell, he said something very strange.
"As long as you don't die!"
Could it be that he doesn't want us to die?
I thought, if I pretend I can't hold on any longer, will they open the floodgates?
Boom!
Before I could take action, I heard the sound of someone falling to the ground next to me.
Feeling bad, I turned around and saw that it was indeed Zhao Xiaohai!
"Xiaohai, Xiaohai, how are you?" I dropped the shovel in my hand and ran over.
The air was filled with sparks, and hot air currents came one after another.
Zhao Xiaohai's entire face was roasted red, and there was a layer of blood scab on his chapped lips. He seemed to be out of breath and in great pain.
I carried him to the vent and he felt a little better.
Boom, boom, boom!
A dull knocking sound suddenly sounded. I looked for it and found a green-haired monster holding a stone and smashing the monitoring glass desperately.
The figures inside were attracted. Three faces pressed against the window and took a look. Some people left quickly.
Why does that monster want to help? Is he Zhao Xiaohai's brother?
Except for him, the other monsters didn't move or stop what they were doing. They just looked at us indifferently.
I put down Zhao Xiaohai and ran over to memorize his number.
No. 36.
Boom!
The metal gate slowly opened, and the monster picked up the stone and ran back to the group. It soon became difficult to tell which one was him.
I also ran back to Zhao Xiaohai.
The metal gate was fully opened, and the hook-nosed man holding a whip walked in with a frown. His face was gloomy, as if we had caused him huge trouble.
"what happened?"
"He's dying." I shouted anxiously in a hoarse voice, "We must get him out, otherwise he will die soon!"
"What a stupid dwarf. The newly recruited person is so useless! He is just a fool. If he dies, I will be punished!"
The hook-nosed man cursed angrily, pointed at me and ordered harshly: "You, move him out!"
"well!"
I suppressed the ecstasy in my heart, carried Zhao Xiaohai on my back, and followed the hooked nose obediently towards the metal gate.
When I walked to the door, I quietly looked back.
In the spark-filled workshop, there seemed to be a monster waving at me.
The floodgates came crashing down.
The heat wave was isolated, and the cool air rushed into the lungs, which was painful and comfortable at the same time.
Carrying Zhao Xiaohai on my back, I followed Hawk Nose and walked into a long, narrow and dark passage.
The front door opened, and a short, stocky man stuck his head out.
"What's wrong?"
"You still have the nerve to ask! What good things you and Mazi did, one found a useless animal and the other didn't remember to feed the pigs! If someone dies, you will have to be punished with me!"
Hook-nosed cursed and walked forward.
When I passed by the door, I lowered my head and glanced inside, and my heart suddenly felt ecstatic.
There is a cabinet inside, and my backpack is on it!
