Dao Yu piled up the stones around the core seed, leaving only a narrow aisle to go directly to the core seed.
At this time, Dao Yu was standing in this aisle.
The others did not quite understand the use of these stones, nor did they know what the one in the middle was. Only in Dao Yu's vague explanation, they knew that it was a dangerous thing. They did not recognize the value of the core seed, so they were not willing to approach it.
Looking at the increasing number of stones piled up here, Dao Yu's face became more and more happy. Looking down at his palm, the original deep bone injury, after drinking the medicine, had been a lot better. His own recovery ability was also strong. The skin and flesh of the injury had regenerated. After two days, it would grow well. If it was another five or six days, it would certainly be completely healed.
"Well, this is it for the time being." Dao Yu said to the people who carried the stones.
At first, there were 50 slaves sent here by Dao Yu, but after a few days, there were only 30 people left. Especially in these two days, there were a lot of deaths. Hearing Dao Yu's words, the other people's hearts relaxed. The work here was finally done. The task was completed and they were waiting for the reward.
Dao Yu called the people in the underground palace to come here and took out a pottery jar. After opening it, they could smell a burst of wine. For the slightly lower level slaves, wine was a luxury and could not be tasted often. For the lower levels, they may not be able to taste it in their lifetime.
After smelling the wine, some people swallowed hard, their eyes staring straight at the jar in Dao Yu's hand, envious. It was said that only high-level slaves and slave owners could often drink it. Regardless of whether it was good or not, this was at least a symbol of identity. Looking at it made people's hearts itch unbearably.
Dao Yu took in the other people's expressions and smiled. "Well, are you all here?"
"Should … should be." Someone said, somewhat impatiently.
Dao Yu looked at the people who had gathered, counted them, and asked what happened to the missing people. He knew who had been dragged out, but after counting, there were still two people missing. One was the person who dragged the body out and did not come back, and the other was the guard at the exit.
"Would you like me to go over there and look?" Someone said.
Dao Yu thought for a moment and shook his head. "Forget it. Don't worry about them. Let's drink first. It's been hard on everyone these days! I specially asked for a jar of wine from the Young Master for everyone to drink. "
Hearing Dao Yu's words, the other people's hearts were also happy. Although they were very afraid of Dao Yu and even called him "Blademaster", now that they heard Dao Yu's words, they couldn't help but feel relieved. The fear of the past few days also dissipated a lot. As for the two who didn't come, none of them wanted to leave. If they didn't get any benefits after leaving, it would be a huge loss!
Dao Yu lifted the wine jar and took a sip himself. After drinking, he smacked his lips as if he was savoring the aftertaste, making the others envious.
After taking the first sip, Dao Yu immediately handed the jar to the people next to him, "Everyone, have a sip."
There were not so many cups here. For the slaves, there was not so much attention. Usually, everyone shared the food like this. Therefore, after Dao Yu handed out the wine jar, the people who took it directly took the jar and poured it. The others could not wait to come and grab it.
The slave who took the wine had just taken a sip, but before he could taste it carefully, the wine jar was taken away. If it weren't for Dao Yu standing here, these people might really fight over this jar of wine.
Dao Yu looked at the slaves who were grabbing the wine jar, while making a sound to stop them from robbing, ensuring that everyone drank at least a sip.
No one noticed that Dao Yu's eyes flashed fiercely and viciously.
Snap!
The wine jar that had been drunk was smashed to the ground. The slave holding the jar covered his throat, making a "uh uh" sound. Blood flowed from his mouth, and his legs seemed to not listen to him. Soft, he staggered a few steps and fell to the ground.
One by one, the slaves fell down. Some people reacted to the wine they had just drunk, but it was already too late.
Dao Yu quietly stood next to them, watching them fall down one by one, his breathing stopped. A slave who was vomiting blood crawled toward Dao Yu, his eyes full of unwillingness. It seemed that he wanted to drag Dao Yu to hell together. Unfortunately, his arm had not yet touched Dao Yu's foot when it powerlessly hung down, no longer making a sound.
Dao Yu contemptuously laughed and kicked. Seeing that the person did not respond, he should have already stopped breathing. However, he was not at ease. The poisoned people fell to the ground one by one in the chest, crushing their sternum. After determining that there was no possibility of survival, he went to the exit. There should be a guard who had not come over, and it seemed that there was also a slave? In short, they all had to die. He would not let go of anyone who knew the secret here. Even the birds that he rode from Baishi City stopped in one place. After sending the birds back, he walked over on foot and did not let the birds follow him.
Before, Dao Yu had selected these slaves and sent them over, but only to repair the underground palace and carry the stones. Dao Yu himself did not want to risk his life to be in close contact with the core seed every day. He would die. When he stole the core seed, one of his arms was almost wasted. Naturally, he did not want to try a second time. Since he did not want to die, then let others die. Now that these projects had been initially completed, there was no need for those slaves to survive.
If there was a need in the future, he could send a group of people over. There were many slaves in the desert, especially now in this chaotic time. Dao Yu did not care about the life and death of these slaves. Although Dao Yu himself was a slave, he did not look at the other slaves.
When Dao Yu went to the exit, Shao Xuan came out from the dark and looked at the thirty people on the ground who had no breath. He thought: Dao Yu was really ruthless enough.
Looking away from the people on the ground, Shao Xuan walked over to the core seed.
There were some glowing crystals around, but there was no flame. He did not know if it was an illusion, but Shao Xuan always felt that the crystals here were much brighter than in other places. Even if it was the same kind of glowing crystal, the one placed here was better.
Feeling the danger signals from every cell in his body, Shao Xuan looked at the small metal object in the middle of the pile of stones. Dao Yu was hiding it like this, so it must be a very special thing.
Shao Xuan's heart moved. Was it related to the metal?
The closer he got, the more Shao Xuan could feel the burning tingling in his arms, face and other places. No, not every part of his body could feel the pain. Shao Xuan took off his outer layer of clothing, revealing the wormskin clothing he was wearing.
It was the skin of the big worm that he had picked up when he went to Eagle Mountain with Chacha. At this time, there was no pain in the places covered by this worm skin.
Thinking of something, Shao Xuan quickly took off the worm skin he was wearing. No matter what, he would take this thing and not leave it to Dao Yu.
Quickly rushing over, Shao Xuan wrapped the small metallic object with his insect skin coat. He wrapped it around a few times so not a single seam was exposed. Sure enough, the tingling feeling quickly disappeared.
After wrapping it, Shao Xuan put the thing in the animal skin bag and hid it close to his body. Since the worm skin had been well isolated from this crisis, there was no danger in keeping it close. After hiding it, Shao Xuan jumped lightly and turned over to hide behind a big stone.
A few seconds after Shao Xuan hid, Dao Yu rushed over like the wind. When he arrived at the exit, he wanted to kill the sleeping slave. However, he found that there was something wrong with the man. Taking a closer look, Dao Yu's heart was even more suspicious. The slave didn't seem to be too tired and fell asleep. It was more like a trick! Moreover, Dao Yu also felt the disappearance of the core seed. Within the range of this underground palace, the threat of the core seed could naturally be felt. When this threat suddenly disappeared, it must be that something had happened to the core seed!
After killing the slave, Dao Yu rushed back to take a look. Sure enough, the place where the core seed was originally placed was empty, and there was no shadow around.
Dao Yu glared, incredulously looking at the empty place. The blue veins on his forehead violently jumped, his eyes red, and he issued an angry roar. Under the rage, Dao Yu did not care about anything else. Venting his anger, he slapped a stone pillar that supported the underground palace. The place where he hit suddenly appeared with a clear palm print. At the same time, the pillar body also cracked with a clear crack.
The whole underground palace shook, and stone chips and dust constantly fell from the top.
