The King of the Super Seminary

Chapter 398 Wu Geng
Inside the Beishan Mine, there are mines extending in all directions. Baihe led Nezha walking in the main passage, and behind him were the accompanying warriors.

The dark mine was cold and damp, and a faint stench permeated the mine.

This place is originally located underground without sunlight, and the lack of sunlight makes the growth rate of bacteria here much faster than that on the ground. In addition, most of the people in the mine are slaves, working endlessly every day, sweating a lot That's the norm.

But here is in the vast mountains, but there is not enough water to wash their bodies every day. The mine can only ensure that the slaves take a bath every once in a while to prevent the slaves from contracting serious diseases.

However, when there was no water most of the time, the slaves could only work in sweat-soaked clothes every day. In the dark and humid environment of the Beishan mine, it was no wonder that they had been wearing this kind of clothes without smell!
Maybe the smell of a slave's sweat is not obvious, but when hundreds or thousands of slaves gather together, the smell of sweat is very disgusting.

But both Nezha and the accompanying warriors were obviously used to the environment of the mine, so they didn't show any discomfort.

"Clang, Clang, Clang..."

The sound of the iron pick hitting the rock formation kept echoing in the mine, and under the light of the torches stuck on the walls of the cave on both sides, one could see that in the dark mine, slaves were carrying With a basket on his back, he walked past Baihe with heavy steps. On both sides of the wide main passage, there were warriors guarding the mine and higher-level slaves who managed the slaves, slave centurions and thousand commanders.

Because the number of samurai in the mine is far less than the number of slaves, it is already very difficult for the samurai to guard the slaves and guard the mine, and it is impossible to manage all the slaves.

However, the problem of slave management cannot be avoided, so Li Jing finally came up with a way to select slaves who performed well from slaves as high-level slaves and give them the power to manage slaves.

Then according to the number of slaves managed by these high-ranking slaves, the titles of centurion and thousand commander were given respectively.

Although high-level slaves who have become centurions and thousand commanders still need to mine ore, they have far surpassed ordinary slaves in other conditions.

These high-level slaves will have a fixed amount of ore turned in every month. If it is lower than this amount, these high-level slaves will be punished. Quantity, receive different rewards, whether it is water, food, silver, or even... women!

Because the status of a slave is doomed to be impossible to get rid of, but if I can perform well and turn in more ore, I can live a life far superior to that of other slaves, and even marry a wife and have children here, so in order to live a more superior life, These high-level slaves oppressed other slaves more cruelly than those warriors.

After all, warriors could not benefit from these slaves. Beating slaves was not good for them, but would make them condemned by conscience, but these high-level slaves were different.

Their willingness to become high-level slaves has already abandoned their conscience. It is common for these high-level slaves to insult or even beat their slaves in order to get more benefits.

In the dark mine, when he saw Baihe and Nezha, to be precise, he saw Nezha walking towards him. A bald senior slave who was scolding his slaves suddenly put on a flattering smile on his face. Step by step came to Nezha.

"Master Nezha, why are you here?"

In Beishan Mine, if Li Jing is said to be the master of the mine, then Nezha can be said to be the absolute prince.

Although Li Jing is the most powerful person here, Li Jing's management of the mine is more of a macro management. In terms of details, Li Jing has never intervened much in the operation of the mine, but Nezha is different.

Nezha is Li Jing's most beloved son. Li Jing has always been responsive to some of Nezha's requests, as long as they are not too excessive. Therefore, in some matters, trying to please Nezha is far more effective than flattering Nezha in front of Li Jing.

"what?!"

The words of the bald slave suddenly came to his ear, which made Nezha startled when he was thinking about the problem.

"Which short-sighted guy dares to scare me?!"

The bad character he has developed for a long time made Nezha subconsciously ready to get angry, but just as he turned his head, Nezha suddenly noticed Baihe from the corner of his eyes, and the anger in his heart dissipated invisible.

Baihe’s punishment of Nezha yesterday is still fresh in his memory. Baihe told him not to bully the slaves. Where would you want to bully slaves.

But you can't get angry with people casually, and you have to be well-behaved and polite to people. This is a bit difficult for Nezha. After all, it is very difficult to change your long-standing personality all at once.

"Who are you? What's the matter with me?"

Looking at the bald-headed senior slave in front of him, Nezha frowned.

"Master Nezha, have you forgotten? I am Lao Cai! I made the bow and arrow for you to play hunting games for you. Didn't you promise to help me speak well in front of Lord Li Jing and make me a thousand husbands?" Is it long? I came here just to ask the young master if this matter has happened again..."

Looking at Nezha who was still a child in front of him, Lao Cai smiled flatteringly while rubbing his hands.

"Oh!"

Hearing what Lao Cai said, Nezha immediately remembered it, but that was all. He came to the mine every day to play, and there were countless high-level slaves who fawned on him. He had long forgotten about Lao Cai.

"I told Dad about this matter, but Dad said that there are too many centurions who want to be a thousand commanders, and they must have outstanding contributions. Although you have enough conditions, other people's conditions are not enough. Not bad, you still have to work hard."

Nezha shook his head pretending to sigh.

Hearing Nezha's words, Lao Cai was a little disappointed, but he cheered up and said loudly.

"I will definitely work hard to increase the mineral production, and I won't disappoint Lord Li Jing."

"......."

Looking at the excited Lao Cai, Bai He couldn't help frowning, he seemed to remember who this guy was.

Isn't this the Centurion Elder Cai who is in charge of managing the protagonist Wu Geng's group? A guy who has been brainwashed by Li Jing's high-level slave policy is willing to become a slave and live in the mine for the rest of his life. His biggest dream is to become a centurion , and was finally killed by Wu Geng because he discovered that Wu Geng was digging a passage to escape from the Beishan mine. He was an important character who promoted the plot.

"Hey, who is this lord?"

Disappointed, Lao Cai looked away from Nezha, only to find Baihe beside him.

Seeing that Baihe was standing with Nezha, and his temperament and clothes were obviously not ordinary people, he definitely couldn't be Nezha's guard, could he be a big shot?

"This is my teacher!"

Nezha pointed at Baihe Road.

"My surname is Bai... You can just call me Mr. Bai."

Bai He said slowly.

"Teacher... Mr. Bai?"

Hearing Bai He's words, Lao Cai's heart moved. Could it be that this is the teacher Li Jing found for Master Nezha?

No wonder Master Nezha was uncharacteristic today, not only did he not hold a bow and arrow in his hands, but he also did not find a slave to ride a horse. He dared to be subdued by this lord!
"So it's Mr. Bai, my name is Lao Cai, and I'm a centurion in the mine!"

Looking at Bai He, Lao Cai scratched his head pretending to be simple and honest, but Bai He didn't express anything, just nodded lightly.

"Do you have anything else to do? We'll go first if we don't have anything to do."

"It's okay, it's okay, my lord, please go ahead, ha ha."

Lao Cai hastily scratched his head and said with a smile
"Well, Nezha, let's go"

Nodding his head, Baihe was about to take Nezha to the depths of the mine, but suddenly a boy wearing a blindfold came out of the mine, which immediately caught Baihe's attention.

"This is... Wu Geng?!"
