Chapter 313: One Day Off per Month
Chapter 313: One Day Off per Month
Ah~ This lush green landscape and the refreshing plant fragrance are refreshing and invigorating.
That's right, she became a tea picker at Jian's Tea House again, and it was pitch black around her, so it must still be night time.
Wait, it was clearly early morning when she disappeared!
Yi Chi looked down at his clothes. It was the same one he was wearing when he disappeared yesterday. Except for the fact that he was not there, everything around him was still the same as when he left, and the location had not changed.
So, she really disappeared out of thin air at that time.
Yi Chi saw a little light in the distance ahead. She quietly moved closer to take a look and found that it was the group of refugees from yesterday. They were picking tea, and there was a servant with a whip watching them.
Yi Chi: “?”
Picking tea at night?
The tea garden was so vast that it stretched as far as the eye could see. Yi Chi looked up at the light source in the sky. It was a lighting device hanging in the air, with someone moving it nearby so that the tea pickers could see clearly.
Obviously, it was made by a monk.
At this moment, someone was distracted and was whipped.
The man felt the pain and tried to dodge by touching his back. The servant whipped him again: "Why are you hiding? Hurry up and pick the tea. If you delay any longer, it won't be just one whip!"
The man who was beaten was scared and angry and said, "You liars, that's not what you said yesterday! We agreed to work during the day and rest at night! We agreed to have three meals a day!"
"We have been working all day and night without sleep! And they only give us water with powder in it!"
There was no such situation when I was a miner before!
The people around also stopped and looked at the two arrogant servants indignantly.
“Hahaha!” The janitor doubled over with laughter and said ferociously, “What a bunch of idiots! They’ve already signed the indenture, and they really think they still have human rights. It’s so funny.”
"Let me tell you, not only will you not be able to rest today, but for the next month, you will have to pick tea day and night without any food!"
"If you enter Jian's Tea House and die here, no one will care! Unless... you can disappear out of thin air like that woman yesterday!"
When mentioning Yi Chi, he had a strange look on his face, with fear in his eyes. He watched such a big person disappear out of thin air, and was terrified to death.
When the tea pickers heard these words, their eyes widened in disbelief. "What did you say? A month? You, Jian's Tea House, are trying to kill people!"
"We want to see Master Jian!"
Someone kicked over the tea basket in anger. After all, they had come from prosperous days and could not accept such exploitation.
Seeing this, the janitor's face darkened and he sneered, "Slaves from Baizhen are different. They don't even know how to write the word 'despair'. Since you don't know the rules, I will teach you."
He whipped the air twice, and the sound of the whip breaking through the air startled everyone and made them shrink their necks.
This man had some martial arts skills. He quickly ran to the person who was shouting the most fiercely and hit him with a ferocious face.
Everyone closed their eyes in fear and a scream was heard.
It belongs to those two servants.
When they looked again, they found that the two men had fallen to the ground and were rolling around, shouting "It hurts, who dares to hit me", and touching their bodies with their arms, but they couldn't seem to find the pain at all.
As if he was possessed by evil spirits, he kept scolding them.
Everyone looked at each other, and when they thought about what happened yesterday when someone disappeared out of thin air, fear flashed across their eyes, and they immediately scattered like birds and beasts.
……
Yi Chi pressed the painful acupoints of the two people with stones and then turned and left.
Let me ask, what has the night light brought to mankind?
Brought about two shifts.
So... what does a powder that is similar in effect to the Bigu Pill and the Ningshen Pill, but diluted a hundred times, bring to humans?
Brought one day off per month.
That is, there is only one day a month for sleeping, and the rest of the time, day and night, is spent picking tea.
Yi Chi: “…”
Is this the slave who signed the indenture contract? He is really being treated like a dog.
Oh, those who said before that the owner of Jianzhuang is kind and compassionate, and that he will definitely live a good life after signing the indenture, come out and take a look.
Yi Chi thought so in his mind, avoiding the sight of the tea pickers and servants, and using his Qinggong skills to climb up to the top of the wall and roof.
She wanted to look for Jian Xiurong, but she didn't know where he was. However, judging by how respected he was and his manner in the teahouse, he was probably in one of the most luxurious places.
Yi Chi climbed high, and based on this point, his eyes were fixed on the center of the tea house. Well, it was obviously the residence of Master Jian.
Yi Chi changed his secondary target and sneaked in in the dark.
