The tasks were manageable for Tie Niu and the men his age. They were still young and energetic. As for the people who were 60 and above, the weight of the stones had certainly become unbearable for them. They walked in a tottered manner. One careless step would shove their weak knees to the ground. Unfortunately, relentless supervisors guarded the place. They beat anyone who was slow, especially those who fell.
Gu Xijiu saw an old man struggling to get up from the ground. His knees were bleeding. Before he could get on his feet again, the supervisor started to hit him. He got hit in the face, and blood started oozing down his head.
The old man got dizzy, so he fell to the ground once again. He groaned in pain with the weight on his back and spat a mouthful of blood.
“Why are you acting? Get up now!” The supervisor wanted to beat him again, but before he could move his whip, sharp pain at his wrist stopped him. He felt as if a knife had slit open his flesh.
“Who? Which bastard did this to me?” The supervisor was obviously infuriated.
As soon as he saw her, he took a few steps back. Gu Xijiu moved the stone away from the back of the old man and helped him up. He was very obviously injured, and there was still blood on the corners of his mouth. Tears rolled down his eyes as soon as he saw Gu Xijiu. “Stone.”
They had not suffered as much, even in the valley.
Tie Niu and his men wanted to help, but they were prevented from doing so by the supervisors. These supervisors were harsh. They would beat the villagers at their slightest resistance. Furthermore, their whips were specially made to torture. Every strike would cause a great amount of pain.
The supervisors all possessed spiritual power of level three and above, so their strength was not to be taken lightly. Tie Dan and his men were strong, but only physically. They stood no chance to rebel against the supervisors. There were a few times where Tie Dan and Tie Niu tried to fight back to help those villagers in need. As a result, they were all violently caned. Each of them had scars that ran the length of their bodies.
Certainly, the villagers did not dominate the quarry. There were dozens of other people around. These people were already used to the whipping. They carried the stones around numbly. The torturous whipping of other men did not bother them.
The supervisors had always been arrogant. As soon as they saw another supervisor being bullied, they quickly came with their whips to help.
“Who is this wild woman? How dare she hurt our men!” They screamed at Gu Xijiu.
Gu Xijiu was not in the mood to argue with them; instead, she fixed her gaze on a whip that she wanted to acquire. Utterly surprised, they looked at Gu Xijiu with their eyes wide open. Gu Xijiu did not explain herself. Instead, she picked up the whip on the ground and started beating the supervisors, each with five whips.
Every strike was intended to hurt, so all five of them started rolling on the ground and warping their faces in pain. Unfortunately for them, they could not even make a sound, as Gu Xijiu had sealed their acupuncture points to prevent speech.
“Miss, you cannot hurt them. They will put the blame on us. If we die from the beating, they will not be punished. A few men already died because of them,” one of the workers put down his load and fearfully told her.
All five of them looked at her in indignation. Their mouths moved, but nothing could be heard. Nonetheless, being a trained assassin, Gu Xijiu could read their lips. She knew what they were saying. Even if they could not do anything to her, they could still release their anger on these innocent workers.
Gu Xijiu laughed. How could she be the leader of her people, if she could not even deal with a few supervisors? She raised her arm and slapped these supervisors on the face.
