Chapter 1324 Heavenly Stems Death Warriors!

Oil City.

In a building near the southwest corner.

A dozen ragged children, the youngest of whom was about eight years old, and the oldest was twelve years old.

Their eyes were fixed on a man who walked in from the door.

Behind the man were four or five people, pushing carts.

Uncle San looked at these children with a maturity and ruthlessness that did not match their age.

Like little wolf cubs.

In the crowd, one little girl's eyes lit up when she saw Uncle San.

This little girl was Zhang Qun who was brought in by Uncle San three days ago.

There was no big problem with her body, but she was too weak, and she had a fever due to a cold.

She recovered in two days, and was sent here after she recovered.

Uncle San waved his hand, signaling Lao Xie behind him to send the things over.

These clothes were trimmed from adult clothes, and they were suitable for their body size.

These children looked at Lao Xie who was walking over with some vigilance, and one of the boys even took two steps back, and seemed to be holding something in his hand.

Old Xie glanced at him and saw that what he was holding was a sharpened stone.

But he didn't care.

He distributed the clothes to the children one by one.

Then he asked Su Qian to push the food in.

There was millet porridge, steamed buns and some meat inside.

Smelling the rich aroma, the children swallowed their saliva and stared at the big barrel.

Su Qian took out a stack of plates and basins and gave each of them a portion.

After getting the food, one of the little boys ate it without any hesitation.

But the others did not move, but looked at Uncle San and the others.

"It's for you! Eat it." Uncle San said calmly, his attention focused on the first little boy.

As soon as the voice fell.

Immediately, another child picked up the food and ate it in big mouthfuls, without any image at all, wolfing it down, as if he had not eaten for several lifetimes.

Seeing these two people eating, several other children couldn't help but start eating crazily.

Uncle San watched this scene quietly. There were still four people left who hadn't eaten. They tried their best to restrain their desire for food.

Although they wanted to eat, they knew very well that there was no free lunch in this world.

Before they figured out what the people in front of them were going to do, they didn't dare to eat.

They were even more afraid that the food might be poisonous.

Zhang Qun didn't hesitate. When Uncle San said to eat, she immediately picked it up and ate it.

Because she knew that Uncle San would never hurt her.

Seeing that the remaining four children hadn't eaten, Uncle San didn't persuade them, but moved a stool and sat quietly in front of them, watching them eat.

He took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and smoked slowly.

He also quietly observed these children.

Uncle San had a good eye, and he could see a lot from the details.

One of the little boys was the first to pick up the food and eat it.

It seemed that he didn't hesitate at all.

This is interesting.

This is a very smart approach.

How could someone who can survive to this day not be vigilant.

But this little boy started eating even when Uncle San didn't order him to eat.

This shows that this little boy is very brave.

And he is smart enough.

He was rashly taken to such a strange place in the oil city, and was given a piece of food, and he ate it without saying anything.

On the surface, he seems to be a reckless man, but how can a reckless man survive until now?

There is only one possibility, that is, he has enough knowledge of himself and knows that if Uncle San wants to harm them, he doesn't need to do it this way.

He can't resist Uncle San and his men at all.

Since we are here, we should make the best of it.

Instead of worrying about finding a reason to let them in, it is better to eat something first and replenish physical strength.

Respond to changes with the same.

And the second child is also the focus of Uncle San.

Be obedient.

The last few children who didn't eat were not the best seedlings.

When you can't resist with your own strength, you still maintain a resistance reaction, which is an unwise decision.

These thoughts only flashed through Uncle San's mind.

It was just his guess.

He smoked quietly and watched them finish eating slowly.

The last three children saw that their companions were eating, and they couldn't help it anymore, so they quickly picked up the food and ate it crazily.

Only one little girl stared at Uncle San, never looking at the food.

The first little boy who ate first finished eating first, and after eating, he changed into the clothes that Lao Xie had just given him without hesitation.

Then he sat on the ground to rest.

A few minutes later.

After all the other children had finished eating except the little girl.

Uncle San looked at the little girl with some doubts and asked:

"Why don't you eat?"

The little girl swallowed her saliva after hearing this question, and her voice was crisp.

"I'll eat later."

After saying that, she put the food away, and put the meat and steamed buns directly into her arms.

Uncle San: "."

This was an answer he didn't expect.

So he asked curiously: "Why do you have to eat later?"

The little girl didn't hesitate and said directly:

"First, I'm afraid there's something wrong with the food. Second, I'm afraid you'll ask me to do something I don't want to do. Third, eating too much at one time is not good for my health, and what if there's nothing left later."

Uncle San raised his lips and said, "What's your name?"

"I don't remember." The little girl said nonchalantly.

Uncle San pondered for a few seconds and didn't say much.

He looked at the first little boy who ate the food and asked:

"Why didn't you eat it without hesitation?"

The little boy said nonchalantly:

"I'm hungry. Since you brought it, it's a waste not to eat it."

"What if it's poisonous?"

"No need."

"What if I ask you to do something?"

"That's even better."

"What if I ask you to do something you don't want to do?"

"If you can have a bite to eat, what can't you do? Old man, give me two more pieces of meat, I can do anything."

Uncle San looked at this boy and smiled.

This boy has a low moral bottom line, but he has a wildness.

He can be used, and he can be used a lot. But he needs to be trained well before he can be used.

Otherwise, it's easy to backfire.

And the girl who put the food away at the end is more interesting.

She is smart and alert, able to restrain her desires, but able to leave a way out for herself.

"What's your name?"

"Zhao Ergou." The little boy answered.

Uncle San looked at him and knew that this name must not be his real name, but it didn't matter now.

He stood up.

In front of them, he said:

"From today on, you have a chance to be reborn."

Looking at the name book in his hand, it wrote the names, ages, heights, and weights of these children.

Uncle San continued:

"Every day, you have food to eat and warm clothes to wear."

"But what you will pay is that from today on, you will forget your names, be loyal to the city lord, and do whatever you are told to do."

"Remember, do whatever you are told to do, and don't disobey orders!"

"Those who are willing to stay, put on clothes, and those who are unwilling to stay, stand on the right, and I will send you away."

These children hesitated, and a little boy hesitated and asked again and again:

"If we leave, what should we do with the food we just ate?"

"It's okay, I'll give it to you." Uncle San replied lightly.

The little boy didn't ask again, but put on his clothes.

But there were still two children who walked to the right, the two children who officially started eating in the middle.

The other children, after much hesitation, also put on their clothes, including the little girl who put the food in her arms.

In the eyes of Uncle San, these children are young.

But they have experienced a lot of things, and they have understood everything.

"Send them out of the oil city." Uncle San waved his hand and asked Lao Xie to send the two children standing on the right away.

Sometimes, there is only one chance to change your destiny.

If you miss it, you will never have it again.

Perhaps because of fear, perhaps because of worry, or perhaps because of other reasons, these two children did not choose to stay.

Uncle San would not care about the reason why they did not stay, it was not important.

Wait until Lao Xie left.

Uncle San looked at the ten children standing in front of him, a total of six boys and four girls.

He said to Zhang Qun: "From now on, your name is Jia."

"You are Yi." The child who was not violent.

"You are Ding." The little girl who put away the food.

"You are Bing."

In this way, the ten children were named according to the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches: Jia, Yi, Bing, Ding, Wu, Ji, Geng, Xin, Ren, and Gui.

Uncle San and Zhang Qun had the most contact with her and understood her nature best.

It is important to have a loyal person as the number one.

"Next, I will send someone to teach and assess you. If you fail the assessment, you will be kicked out of the team, but from now on, you will not have to worry about food and safety."

After leaving the house, Uncle San found Ant and asked him and the jackal to help train these little guys.

He doesn't have so much time now. When the rain stops, these little guys can be sent to the camphor tree base for Li Yu to see.

At the same time, they have to be brainwashed.

Having power is one thing, and whether you can use it yourself is another.

There is no free lunch in the world. It is lucky to be able to live in this doomsday without worrying about food.

If you ask for too much, you can only say that this kind of person is too ambitious and not satisfied.

He wanted to help Li Yu and the Li family train a sword that was absolutely loyal to them.

He didn't know when it would be used, but he had to prepare for a rainy day.

The rainstorm washed the sky and the earth, and the lightning went from sparse to basically non-existent.

Only pure rainstorm remained.

Ma Sailong and others, who had spent three days and three nights on the wall, finally returned to the oil city.

Originally, according to the idea of ​​the third uncle, he was asked to work on the wall for 24 hours to feel it.

Later, he learned from Dongtai that oil well excavation can be achieved in heavy rain.

And the three-shift work can actually save the loss of electricity and other resources in oil extraction.

In other words, Ma Sailong was actually lazy before.

He took advantage of his professional work and the fact that the third uncle and others didn't understand this, and was blatantly lazy.

This made the third uncle very angry.

So he gave them an extension of time, three days and three nights!

Dragging his tired body down the wall of the trading market, Ma Sailong was exhausted.

"Marsailon, the minister asked you to go to the conference room."

As soon as Marseille came in from Oil City, he was reminded by Xiao Jun.

Hearing this, Marseille asked nervously:

"Captain Xiao, what does the minister want to see me for? Is it because of the oil well?"

Xiao Jun glanced at him, and he was a little angry after learning about this.

Damn it, everyone worked tirelessly to stop the zombies.

But you want to be lazy and cheat!

If it weren't for the good relationship before, he would have scolded her.

"You know it yourself, go ahead and don't keep the minister waiting."

Marseille felt even more regretful when he saw Xiao Jun's completely different attitude towards him from before.

well.

Why did I do that at that time?

How stupid.

With an anxious mood and heavy steps, he came to the door of the conference room.

He wanted to push the door open, but his hands were shaking.

He didn't know what else the minister wanted to do with him.

Hasn’t the minister calmed down yet?

Squeak——

The door opened.

Lao Xie glanced at him doubtfully, pursed his lips and said, "Why are you at the door? No, the minister is waiting for you inside. Come in quickly."

Dead!

Marcello gritted his teeth and walked inside bravely.

The third uncle happened to be sitting at the table drinking tea and looking at the manual in his hand.

Very slow pace

Everyone in the conference room saw him, and the third uncle also knew that he had entered.

But he didn't look up.

thump!

Marcellone knelt down in front of his third uncle without hesitation.

Tears were streaming down his cheeks, and he said to his third uncle:

"Minister, I really know I was wrong. I hope you will consider that I have no merit but hard work and don't drive me away."

He was very scared. These three days and nights made him understand many things.

He also realized that without Oil City, he was nothing.

Once he leaves Oil City, he may not survive long in this world.

The third uncle turned over a few pages of paper in his hand.

Don't look at him at all.

The sound came from above the Marseille.

"Oil well extraction can be achieved during heavy rains. Working in three shifts is actually the most scientific way to extract oil, because every time it is closed and opened, it is very expensive to reopen it."

The voice was calm and seemed lifeless.

When Marseille heard what his third uncle said, his whole body trembled like a sieve.

"Department, department, minister, I was wrong. I really didn't mean it."

Hearing that he was still talking nonsense, the third uncle no longer had any patience.

"From today on, you are no longer a non-staff member, you have been demoted to a cooperative member."

"Don't do anything else. Go and clean the toilets and bathrooms in Oil City for a month."

"I" Marseille was stunned on the spot as if struck by lightning.

He is very aware of the gap between non-staff members and collaborators.

Collaborators do not have any guaranteed food, while non-staff members do.

In addition, the permissions are also very different.

The third uncle suddenly put down the manual in his hand.

He looked at Marseille with sharp eyes, as if he wanted to see through his heart.

"As a reminder, if you don't accept my decision, you can leave Oil City."

Finished.

The third uncle's tone was slightly slower.

"You are also an old man in Oil City. You have indeed given a lot, so I will give you the opportunity to stay in Oil City."

"Slowly accumulate points, do tasks well, and contribute well, and you will eventually be promoted back."

"Lao Ma, don't let me down."

The third uncle was hot and cold, a big stick and a sweet date, which moved Marseille to tears.

"Minister, I was wrong. I really know I was wrong."

"Thank you, Minister, for keeping me. Damn it, I deserve it!"

As Marcelloin spoke, he slapped himself in the face, making a loud slapping sound.

He originally thought he would be kicked out of Oil City, especially when his third uncle mentioned that frequent opening and closing would cause wear and tear, he knew he was in trouble.

But the minister will still give him a chance.

This made him feel lucky to survive the disaster.

If he really left Oil City, he really didn't know what to do.

As long as you can stay and rely on your own skills, you can always get up slowly.

This time, he fully realized how valuable this job is to be able to mine oil in the Oil City!

[Xiao Meng Xin Liao’s first book has five million words, which is a bit emotional.

I have been writing for more than a year. There are so many words. I didn’t expect that I could write so many words.

Thanks for having you guys! 】
