Chapter 1278: Cave Reform and Restart
Chapter 1278: Cave Reform and Restart
He divided people into different classes.
The worst cases involve collecting snow crystals and being tied to beds.
Those who collect snow crystals provide him with snow crystals so he can exchange them for supplies at human gathering points.
Twenty years ago, she was only brushed past him once when he took a liking to her and then forcibly took her.
After he got tired of playing with it, he locked it there.
This place is filled with women he has locked up, with the purpose of rewarding those who have made contributions and his confidants.
Therefore, for twenty years, she was forced to endure humiliation day and night.
Later, a sister who had survived earlier entrusted her with the care of a one-year-old monkey. Over the years, she had catered to all sorts of people in exchange for food to raise the monkey.
To this day, the monkey still doesn't know what his stepmother really looks like, because he can't see her clearly in this dark room.
He didn't understand that he stayed behind his stepmother every day, unaware that she was actually making it easier for others to take advantage of him.
There isn't even a complete pair of pants.
After hearing this, Chu Chen was unable to calm down for a long time.
A world without the rule of law is truly a world where people prey on each other.
He glanced at the iron chain on the woman's hand; it was only about three meters long, which meant that her activity space over the past twenty years had only been within a three-meter radius.
"Sister-in-law, you've worked hard!"
Chu Chen was speechless for a moment, and only said this: "Everyone has a heart, and anyone who sees this will feel sympathy and anger."
"It's all over now."
After saying that, Chu Chen turned off the lights, then took out a set of clothes and placed them on the bed. He then took out a pair of wire cutters and cut the iron chain with a snip.
"I'll wait for you outside. Come out after you've changed your clothes. The world outside is still here!"
After saying that, Chu Chen turned and left the house.
Then he took out a cigarette, lit it, and casually gave one to the monkey.
The monkey was already in tears. He was a normal child, so how could he not understand all of this? He just didn't want to say it.
Chu Chen patted him on the shoulder: "A real man, after you've finished crying, pick up your weapon and build a truly habitable place for your mother, for her sisters, and for the people at the bottom of this cave."
"Don't worry, I will give you my full support. Of course, all the snow crystals must be given to me!"
After saying that, Chu Chen lit his cigarette with a snap.
The monkey nodded after listening, then took a deep breath and suppressed a violent cough.
"Brother, don't worry, I've learned to smoke just like everyone else."
Chu Chen patted his shoulder: "Treat your mother well. From today onwards, she is your mother, even closer than your own mother!"
"Brother, she has been in my heart for a long time!"
Chu Chen listened without saying anything, and instead looked at other houses.
After thinking for a moment, Chu Chen stopped his idea of going forward to rescue them one by one.
Let's leave these people to the monkeys.
Just then, the monkey's mother came out of the low house, looked at everything outside, and remained silent for a long time.
Then, she knelt down in front of Chu Chen like someone from ancient times.
"Sir, thank you!"
"Get up and get used to the environment. Now, you and the monkey come with me."
After saying that, Chu Chen led the two of them back to the center of the cave, which was also the central area where they were controlled.
After Chu Chen had the monkey gather everyone together, he immediately began making arrangements for them.
As for the so-called general's followers and subordinates, they all laid down their weapons and awaited their fate.
Immediately afterwards, Chu Chen went directly to the cave where they had been imprisoned and opened the iron gate.
This group of people, like the monkey's mother, were among the lowest-ranking people in this cave.
Mining is a little better; at least you can go out and see the sunlight every day.
When Chu Chen led his men inside with LED lights, illuminating the entire cave, they found the people huddled in a corner, their eyes filled with terror.
"Chu Chen... there was shooting outside, how did you get in from outside?"
Seeing that it was Chu Chen who brought people in, Zhen Xuemei asked softly.
Chu Chen could clearly hear the tremor in her voice.
Chu Chen stepped forward and gave her a warm smile: "You are free. From now on, you will never have to eat those black steamed buns again."
Zhen Xuemei stared at Chu Chen with a completely bewildered expression.
Then she cautiously approached, her feet perhaps trembling with fear, and she slipped and fell directly into Chu Chen's arms.
Hmm, not bad, really not thin.
However, Chu Chen only sensed her for a moment before separating from her and then addressed the crowd.
"Gentlemen, you are here in darkness, toiling every day, but your so-called general still feeds you the worst food."
"Today, I, Chu Chen, have eliminated this scourge so that you can all live better lives. Everyone, come out!"
The crowd's expressions shifted from fear to disbelief, and then to excitement...
Half an hour later, the central area of the cave was packed with people.
When Chu Chen took out those black steamed buns and the ingredients for making them, a chorus of vomiting filled the entire cave.
Those who had been brainwashed also realized their predicament.
Some might argue that maintaining the status quo would be more beneficial for Chu Chen.
However, first of all, Chu Chen is a person, and besides, these people are his former compatriots, and they all live in the same safe and peaceful country.
It would be completely pointless for me to enslave them.
Three days later, Monkey, Zhen Xuemei, and others escorted Chu Chen to the cave entrance.
"Big brother, when are you coming back?"
"It will be about a month. I will come regularly to collect the snow crystals and exchange them for the food you need. You should manage the business well and not let me down."
Chu Chen patted the monkey on the shoulder and said solemnly.
"Brother, don't worry, I will definitely turn this cave into a paradise where humans can survive, and I will also get more snow crystals for you!"
Chu Chen nodded after listening, then turned to look at Zhen Xuemei, who had already washed herself clean.
"You are a good girl. Keep the kindness in your heart, and one day you will see that the whole world is still the same!"
"Be careful on the road!"
Zhen Xuemei didn't say much, but stared blankly at Chu Chen's departing figure, a ripple of emotion welling up in her heart.
Chu Chen drove his snowmobile out of the cave, lit a cigarette, and felt relaxed.
"Next target: the human gathering point, and the snow crystals there. I hope they won't disappoint me."
