Chapter 222: Mining Again
Youyou kept staring at Lin Xia, and when he saw the direction Lin Xia ran, he chased after her, "He ran forward!"
Mu Ling's men looked at Youyou who was talking, then followed her direction, found her right in front, locked onto Lin Xia, and caught up.
Lin Xia was speechless. Next time she met Youyou, she would make sure to let her experience how dangerous the world is.
Lin Xia ran forward for a distance, and when she couldn't see anyone behind her, she turned around and found a place to hide.
The footsteps came closer and closer, and Lin Xia's heart began to lift. However, she heard the footsteps gradually going farther and farther away, until she could no longer hear the footsteps, and then the tension subsided little by little.
Lin Xia waited for a while, but didn't hear any sound. She quietly stuck her head out to observe the surrounding environment.
There seems to be a black figure!
Lin Xia didn't even see clearly whether there was really a person there, and immediately hid herself.
Lin Xia listened to the sounds around him, but there was no sound at all. However, he still did not relax his vigilance. Suddenly, he felt a black figure appear on the right. Before the person got close, Lin Xia kicked first.
The attack was blocked, so Lin Xia immediately changed his attack method and rushed over to fight with the person.
"Ah!" The man screamed as soon as he was hit. Lin Xia also knew that there was no way out in the current situation, so he hit him harder.
Lin Xia knocked the man down in a few hits and was about to run away, but the man grabbed his ankle. Hearing the footsteps getting closer and closer, Lin Xia kicked him down without mercy.
"Ah!" With a scream, the person who was chasing him determined Lin Xia's location, and Lin Xia broke free from the restraints as he wished.
Without thinking too much, Lin Xia ran in one direction.
"Where are the people?" Several people caught up and saw only their companions lying on the ground.
"That, over there..." The man on the ground pointed in the direction Lin Xia was running.
Among the few people, one stayed behind to bring the brother lying on the ground back, and the others followed in the direction of Lin Xia.
Lin Xia had already run for a distance. He was very fast and soon put some distance between him and them.
Lin Xia was not familiar with the environment in the mountains, and he did not have time to prepare useful equipment, so Lin Xia could only wander around in the mountains based on his little experience.
Lin Xia led a group of people in circles in the mountains. Finally, it was dark and Lin Xia was tired, but he couldn't stop. There was no village in front of him or a shop behind him, not even a stream. Although he could no longer hear the sound behind him, Lin Xia chose to keep running forward.
"c..." Lin Xia's feet slipped and she felt a sense of weightlessness. Just like that, she accidentally fell down.
Bang!
The sound was particularly obvious in the dark night, and Lin Xia fell heavily to the ground, "Hiss!"
"who!"
Before Lin Xia could stand up, a beam of light hit her and a young man's voice was heard.
Lin Xia looked in the direction of the voice, but the flashlight's light made it impossible for her to open her eyes, and she couldn't see the person over there. She could only see a black figure in the darkness.
"You, who are you?" The young man swallowed and was still a little scared when he saw Lin Xia lying on the ground.
Lin Xia also heard fear in the man's voice. Lin Xia stared at the man without saying a word.
The young man approached cautiously, but Lin Xia sat up and remained motionless, waiting for someone to come closer.
But the young man was really scared, and he moved only a little bit each time. Lin Xia was almost losing her patience.
Looking at the distance two steps ahead, Lin Xia quickly stood up, rushed over and controlled the young man.
"Ah...ah!" The young man struggled, and the flashlight fell to the ground, shining on the wall on one side.
Lin Xia covered the young man's mouth tightly and controlled his hands.
The young man had no choice but to keep struggling. Lin Xia didn't take him seriously at all. Such a skinny man was no match for her.
"Don't shout, and I'll let you go."
Lin Xia said this while observing the young man. Only when she saw the young man nodded did she slowly let go of her hand that was covering the young man's mouth.
The young man was very well-behaved and didn't make any sound.
"Where is this place?" Lin Xia distanced herself from the young man.
"Mine, mine."
Lin Xia didn't want to hear what he was talking about. She bent down, picked up the flashlight from the ground, and shone it on the young man's face. "Whose mine is it?"
The young man raised his hands to cover his face, making it look like Lin Xia was going to bully someone.
Lin Xia frowned and said, "Speak."
"Mu, Mu family."
Lin Xia looked at the young man illuminated by the flashlight without saying a word. In fact, she was thinking about the Mu family and Mu Ling.
As the saying goes, the most dangerous place is the safest place. Lin Xia decided to hide here.
“How many workers are there here?”
"No, I don't know."
"Don't know?" Lin Xia's voice was full of threats, frightening the young man so much that he trembled continuously.
"Really, no, I don't know."
"What credentials do the miners have?"
"No, no." The young man lowered his head and shook it, even his voice was shaking.
Lin Xia was upset. Was she really that scary? "What's your name?"
"Xiao, Xiao He."
"Xiao Xiao He? What kind of name is that?"
As if sensing Lin Xia's gaze, the young man became even more nervous. "Yes, Xiao He."
"Oh, Xiao He Miao's Xiao He." Lin Xia said as she looked at the young man under the flashlight. When he nodded, she nodded as well and sat down next to him. "Actually, I'm also a worker here."
When the young man heard Lin Xia's words, he immediately looked over, as if to confirm the truthfulness of Lin Xia's words.
Lin Xia smiled and said, "Don't believe me? You must be bullied often here."
Seeing Lin Xia's confident look, Xiao He lowered his head without saying a word.
Seeing Xiao He acting like a quail, Lin Xia didn't want to say anything more, but she couldn't leave any evidence behind. "Next."
Lin Xia threw the flashlight in her hand over. Although Xiao He looked timid, his hands and feet were quite nimble, and he raised his hand to catch it reflexively.
"It's a good idea to reach out." Lin Xia said, and walked towards the direction where Xiaohe had just come from.
Xiao He stood there, watching the black figure of Lin Xia leaving. He moved his lips but didn't say anything. Then he sat aside and rested alone.
Lin Xia didn't expect that he would become a miner from a mine owner.
The Mu family's mine is poorly managed. Workers don't have their own numbers, and there are no clear groups. They just do their own work. If a certain job is full, the remaining people will have to do other jobs.
Lin Xia saw a familiar figure, it was the tall and thin Xiaohe. He went over to the cart, but was excluded by them.
The people over there pushed and shoved, and Xiao He was pushed aside. The person in charge saw Xiao He standing outside alone, his face immediately darkened, and he yelled, "What are you doing? Go to the team going down to the mine!"
