Chapter 1377: Expensive tools?
"If you have any doubts, you can go down and take a look and ask."
"I think as long as you reveal your identity as the Chosen One, those Palu slaves will be happy to answer your questions."
"I will." Xu Xiao responded softly, with no sadness or joy in his tone.
Before the fox man Smir could speak again, the woman fell down.
At the same time, there were words with a hint of warning:
"Go and do your own thing. You don't have to follow me."
"If I need anything, I will contact your master."
"Uh... I'll follow your instructions." The fox man Smir's expression froze for a moment, and he bowed his head towards Xu Xiao's departing back.
After the woman disappeared from his sight, he raised his head with a serious expression and opened his data panel.
After reporting everything that happened to Shi Aotian truthfully, the fox man Smir waited for a moment.
Only after receiving Shi Aotian's reply of "Let her be" did he breathe a sigh of relief and muttered a few words in a voice that only he could hear:
"What on earth was Aotian Colonial Master thinking? He just let Xu Xiao do whatever he wanted... Could it be that he really did as Bashi Colonial Master said, and would no longer care about this century-old foundation on the planet Palu?"
"Forget it, forget it. The plans of the bigwigs are beyond the comprehension of an ordinary person like me."
"It's all right now, so I might as well go home early and stay with my wife and kids..."
Thinking of this, the fox man Smir suddenly raised an obscene smile at the corner of his mouth.
Don't talk too much, don't talk too little,
The feeling of having a good brother Reinzik's wife and daughter is truly happy and wonderful.
No matter how high the work intensity is,
Coming home always relieves my worries!
Smil, who was obsessed with sex, soon stopped caring about Xu Xiao, the strange chosen one.
I rushed home wholeheartedly, intending to live a life that was the envy of mandarin ducks and not the envy of immortals as soon as possible.
I never imagined what kind of upheaval the entire Palu star belt would face after today!
Xu Xiao fell all the way down and soon arrived at the edge of one of the larger mines.
Three luminous stars of different distances hang in the sky, emitting light that is either hot, gentle, or has no temperature at all.
But after accumulating all of them, the ground was still scorching hot and the air was stuffy.
Even Xu Xiao, a powerful player who had already been promoted to the Chosen One, felt a little uncomfortable breathing after the isolation amulet was removed, as if a large ball of cotton was blocking his chest.
The Palu slaves who worked in the mines had no protection at all.
Relying only on the sparse hair and cracked skin on its body, it struggled to resist the light from the sky and tried hard to retain moisture in its body so as not to be dried out by the high temperature.
One can imagine how intense the suffering they are enduring at this moment.
Perhaps because the mine was so large, the slave masters who supervised the work had not yet inspected this area;
Or maybe the insects simply huddled in the cool little tent and took a comfortable nap.
all in all,
Except for the Palu slaves working around, no one noticed Xu Xiao's arrival.
As for the working Palu slaves, they just glanced at the Chosen One quickly, then lowered their heads timidly and continued to do their work numbly and non-stop.
There is no other reason,
It’s just because they felt something extraordinary in Xu Xiao.
Although it is not clear where this woman with a calm face who does not arouse any disgust comes from and what her identity is.
But there is one thing that Palu slaves are very clear about.
This woman is definitely not a Palu slave.
Not being Palu slaves meant that they, the lowly race working in the mines, were not qualified to communicate with the other side.
Even if you looked at them for a second longer, you would probably be severely beaten if caught by the slave owner.
It is better to have less trouble than more, so naturally no one paid attention to Xu Xiao.
The woman seemed to have anticipated this outcome and did not try to communicate with the Palu slaves around her.
He just glanced around with a compassionate look, quickened his pace slightly, and moved towards the bottom of the mine.
Xu Xiao originally thought that the temperature at the bottom of the mine, which was not directly exposed to sunlight and was shaded, would be somewhat lower than the ground directly exposed to sunlight.
never thought,
The closer you get to the bottom of the pit, the higher the temperature around you becomes.
It was stuffy and hot.
In this terrible environment, there was a Palu pony who looked underage, pushing an empty wheelbarrow and walking towards the mine with a staggering step.
Xu Xiao followed quietly, walking in the narrow mine tunnel with one foot deep and one foot shallow.
The noise of the outside world is gradually left behind.
The intermittent sounds of excavation coming from deep within the dark mine tunnel, mixed with the squeaking and twisting of the wheelbarrow in front, made people feel extremely depressed.
After walking for a while, the Palu pony who was pushing the wheelbarrow suddenly stopped and looked back curiously.
After meeting Xu Xiao's gentle and compassionate gaze, he did not dodge like the other Palu people.
Instead, he looked around curiously for a while and then asked:
"You are... a slave owner?"
Xu Xiao was stunned for a moment and shook his head silently.
The stiffness and tension in the pony's eyes immediately receded, and a faint smile appeared on his face:
"Who are you, then?"
"Could it be a god?"
"I heard my mother say that above the slave owners are gods!"
"They possess combat power far exceeding that of the players, and their attire is also quite conspicuous..."
"Just like you..."
Xu Xiao looked at the pony's innocent eyes and didn't know how to answer for a moment.
I could only murmur in a voice that I couldn't even hear myself:
"I, I'm not a god. I'm just a bystander who came to see what's going on..."
The ponyman didn't hear.
But he didn't mean to ask her to give an answer immediately.
Seeing that he got no answer, he leaned forward again, exerted force with his legs, and pushed the wheelbarrow forward with a squeaking sound.
Xu Xiao continued to follow, but no longer remained silent.
He glanced at the Paloo people mining around him and couldn't help but ask:
"Why don't the workers who dig the ore use any tools?"
"From what I saw, it seemed like most of them were digging with their bare hands?"
The pony heard this and said as if it was normal:
"The tools are expensive."
