"Rumble …"
Everyone was shocked and raised their heads to look at the cloudless sky.
"Rumble …"
Soon after, the thunder exploded again. It was as if the sky was going to explode with earth-shattering sound.
Nian Gao's legs went weak and he kneeled down in fear.
The sixth brother looked at Nian Gao on the ground and then at the sky and suddenly remembered something. His lips trembled and he kneeled on the ground and muttered, "The God's game, it's the God's game. The God's game is about to begin again."
When high level slave, who was carrying the food, heard this, he was so shocked that the food in his hand fell to the ground.
The rest of them quickly realized what was going to happen as they hurriedly threw away their rations and kneeled on the ground, kowtowing as they pleaded, "Beneath the heavens, Lord God, please show mercy and spare us this one time."
When everyone kowtowed, they used a lot of force. As their foreheads made contact with the ground, there was a loud sound. In a short moment, red blood was left on their foreheads.
He had heard his foster father talk about the God game before. Whenever his foster father talked about this matter, he would show signs of lingering fear. At that time, he had never experienced it personally, so he was unable to understand his foster father's feelings.
However, in Ugly Slave's memory, he once again saw the cruel side of God.
From time to time, the Upper World's gods would use their own divine powers to stir up all kinds of natural disasters in the Lower World, causing the slaves to fall into pain, escape, panic and die.
Every time they experienced it, many slaves would die. The masters of the Lower World never stopped the Gods from killing their slaves, and instead followed the Gods to watch the slaves survive. They even made a life or death bet on the slaves.
Dong Lingce's mouth curved into a smile as he asked Bao Ye and Jin Lingrui: "Aren't you two brothers kneeling?"
Jin Lingrui took out a cigarette from her pocket and said, "Kneeling can stop the God from playing the game?"
Bao Ye twitched his mouth: "If you want to kneel, then think of a way to deal with it."
Jin Lingrui, who was about to light a cigarette, put it back in her pocket and went over to call her kneeling men to move the food onto the cart.
Dong Lingce looked at Jin Lingrui who helped with the food, "Why did you kill him that night?"
Bao Ye raised his eyebrows: "I must have been possessed by a ghost."
Dong Lingce didn't believe what he said, but he didn't intend to investigate further. He turned his head and asked, "Let's guess what the God game is?"
Bao Ye sneered, "Do you still need to guess?"
Dong Lingce raised his eyebrows. "What do you mean?"
"In my heart, you're in cahoots with them. They all like to tease people."
The only difference was that Dong Lingce hadn't made a joke about human lives yet.
Dong Lingce smirked, "Right, we are in the same group. Use your butt to copy down the Diamond Sutra later."
Bao Ye's mouth twitched. F * ck, who writes with their butt?
He found an excuse and said, "I can't write."
"Copy it."
Bao Ye said with a fake smile, "I can't even see the words, how do I copy it?"
"With your fart eyes."
A few black lines were drawn on Bao Ye's forehead: "Bullshit, I have to write with a pen, I don't have time to read."
Dong Lingce chuckled. This person was too funny.
The people around them heard the laughter and looked at them.
Jin Lingrui stared at Bao Ye thoughtfully.
Bao Ye couldn't be bothered to care about this mental illness, and turned to go to Ministry of Health.
Not long after, Nian Gao and Ol 'Six supported each other back to Ministry of Health, their faces ashen.
Bao Ye raised his eyebrows: "The God's game hasn't started yet, you guys are already showing the face of a dead person, isn't it a little too early?"
Nian Gao shouted in fear, "It's not like you don't know. As long as God's game starts, a lot of people will die. Even high level slave won't be able to escape. We're dead, we're dead."
The sixth brother said hoarsely, "My parents, second brother, third brother and seventh brother all died in the game."
Bao Ye: "..."
At this moment, Wang Qiao also returned. She weakly sat on the chair and said, "I wonder what kind of disaster this will be."
The Ministry of Health was dead silent.
"It's a thunderstorm, a storm, a flood, and a plague." Bao Ye suddenly said.
They stared at him.
"Plague is the most terrifying. Without medicine to treat humans, the virus will still infect people. In the end, a large number of people will die." Bao Ye frowned: "Get ready in advance."
He was judging what kind of game the gods would play at this point in time based on what his foster father had told him.
Nian Gao sneered: "It sounds like it's true."
Bao Ye looked at him but didn't say anything. After all, he wasn't sure either.
That day, the atmosphere at the construction site was very gloomy. Even Deacons and the others who were usually above everyone had a sullen face. If the God game descends, they will suffer together with the slaves.
When they returned to the slave shelter in the afternoon, all the slaves lowered their heads without saying a word.
Bao Ye, as usual, gave his meal to Jiang Yu.
This time, not only did Jiang Yu not take the rice, he even put his bowl beside the bed.
Bao Ye asked with concern, "No taste?"
Jiang Yu said in a low voice, "If we're all going to die, we won't even have a chance to eat."
Bao Ye laughed: "The godly game hasn't started yet, how can you be sure that you're going to die?"
"I'm already so old, how could I avoid the God's game?" Jiang Yu sighed, "I've had enough of living in my life and I'm tired of it."
Having lost his vigor, he instantly aged significantly.
Bao Ye stuffed the bowl into his hands: "It's easy to die, but to run into a wall, I guarantee you will die."
Jiang Yu immediately glared at him and said: "Can't you say something nice to comfort me?"
Bao Ye laughed and said, "If you need comfort, it means that you don't want to die. Hurry up and finish your meal, fill up your stomach before you have the strength to resist the God's game."
Jiang Yu looked at the bed frame and the pillar of the shed. Since he couldn't muster up the courage to seek death, he picked up the bowl of rice and started eating.
At night, after the lights were switched off, suddenly, countless silver lights flickered in the sky, illuminating the shed. Following that, heavenly thunder sounded, the thunder was even more terrifying than the morning thunder, causing the ground to shake.
Everyone woke up from their stupor and sat up.
The lightning outside was like an electric light that was about to break. It flashed non-stop and the thunder exploded like firecrackers. The slaves were so scared that they hid in their blankets and didn't dare to go out.
Bao Ye's bed was right next to the window. He got up and looked. In the distance, the thick and big buildings were smashing down from the sky to the ground.
Because his line of sight was blocked, he could not see very far. However, with his divine force, he could clearly hear the sounds of lightning striking at certain places.
Bao Ye sat back on the bed.
Jiang Yu stuck his head out and asked, "Ugly Slave, what did you see?"
Bao Ye answered truthfully, "It's all lightning outside."
Jiang Yu's face turned pale: "It must be the God's game starting."
Old Luo, who was on the other side of the bed, heard their conversation and sighed, "I hope the lightning won't hit us here."
The slave beside his bed was trembling with fear.
When dawn approached, the thunder finally stopped.
Everyone didn't sleep well the whole night. Just as they wanted to sleep, Deacons woke them up to go to work.
On the way to the construction site, Bao Ye saw several pits that were bombarded by lightning. The pits even had a strong burnt smell.
When the slaves in the carriages saw the huge pit that was blasted open, they all sucked in a breath of cold air.
If the lightning were to strike our slave shelter, we would be dead for sure. "
"I hope the gods do not thunder again."
"We should pray that there are no more games of God."
Bao Ye listened to the prayers of the slaves on the way to Ministry of Health.
Nian Gao, who usually disdained to talk with Bao Ye, saw him and immediately said excitedly: "Ugly Slave, last night, someone from Western District was killed by lightning. Their body was either burnt or split into two halves.
Before Bao Ye could say anything, Ol 'Six and Wang Qiao ran in with a frightened look on their faces.
Nian Gao asked, "What's wrong with you guys?"
Wang Qiao slumped into a chair. "I saw a lot of corpses on the way here."
"Me too." The sixth brother wiped away his sweat and said, "I didn't just see the corpse, I also saw something terrifying."
Bao Ye asked curiously, "What is it?"
"When our caravan was on the way here, we saw a few people who were injured by lightning, but weren't killed. Someone got off the car to save them out of goodwill, but was instead electrocuted to death by the remnant electricity on their bodies."
Nian Gao's face was filled with fear: "Is this a warning from God? Don't allow us to save them? "
Ol 'Six thought about it and nodded. "That's very possible."
"Young Master Jin? Is Young Master Jin here? " Deacon Tao's voice came from the door.
Bao Ye looked towards the door and said, "I'm here. Is there anything wrong with Deacon Tao?"
Deacon Tao walked in while yawning, "My master told me to come over and see if you're dead. As long as you're alive, he can let you play around for a while longer."
Bao Ye rolled his eyes in annoyance: "Thank you, master, for your concern."
Deacon Tao yawned: "Master will not come to the construction site today, you just stay in Ministry of Health."
"Alright."
When Deacon Tao left, Nian Gao said with envy and jealousy, "Master really cares about you."
Bao Ye was speechless. How did he know that Dong Lingce cared about him?
The sixth brother yawned, "Take advantage of the time when we don't have to work to catch up on our sleep. Maybe there will be more scary things waiting for us next."
Nian Gao and Wang Qiao nodded and fell asleep on the table.
Bao Ye did not sleep at all. He left the Ministry of Health with his car key and drove the garbage truck to the construction site. He found that there was a barrier placed around the construction site that prevented wind and lightning from entering.
"This barrier is amazing."
He was sure that the barrier in front of him was not any worse than Upper God's barrier and was even of a higher grade than Upper God's barrier. This made him more and more curious about Dong Lingce, who was he, and why he had never heard of this person's name even after staying in the Upper Realm for so many years.
