Su Qing took the key and opened a room where the laborers were imprisoned. Then he placed the keys to the other rooms and all the guns outside the room and left quietly without waiting for anyone to come out.
As for what would happen to the workers after they were freed, Su Qing didn't consider it.
After all, he can hardly protect himself now, and he doesn't have the idea of "being a good person to the end and sending Buddha to the west". He helps them open the cage because they are both Easterners.
Although this is no longer the original world, the same yellow skin and the same language make it difficult for Su Qing to stand idly by.
On the way back, Su Qing searched the guard's room and found that the total amount of scattered money was only 500 pounds and 18 shillings.
[Note: One pound equals twenty shillings, and one shilling equals twelve pence. ]
"They usually look quite impressive, but I didn't expect them to be a bunch of poor people."
Su Qing was a little disgusted. He remembered that in 1900, the weekly wage of a skilled worker in Great Britain could reach 10 pounds.
It's 1911 now, and this group of cowboys, twenty-four of them, have only a little over five hundred pounds in total.
It's unexpectedly poor!
But no matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat. Su Qing found a purse, put all his money in it, and then put it in his arms.
After collecting the money, Su Qing quickened his pace and returned to his original place in a short while.
I saw that the two original werewolves had turned back into human form, one was the bald man during the day, and the other was John as expected.
At this time, the two of them were tied up like dumplings with ropes, their eyes closed, and they were obviously knocked unconscious.
Selena stood aside, staring at the bright moon in a daze, not knowing what she was thinking.
Su Qing walked over and ignored her, instead running towards John's two-story building opposite.
If Su Qing hadn't seen the person, he would have almost forgotten that John's residence had not been searched yet.
As the manager of a mine, John must be richer than those poor cowboys.
With this thought in mind, Su Qing trotted all the way, then entered the house, searched, went upstairs, searched, went downstairs, and got it done.
This time he seized a total of 5,000 pounds, becoming rich instantly.
Damn, so rich.
It's no wonder that the heroes in martial arts novels like to "roar when they see injustice". It's not that they are looking for trouble, but nine out of ten villains are rich, and the other one is extremely rich. With such a huge sum of money delivered to their doorstep, which hero can resist taking action?
It seems that when I am short of money in the future, I must learn from the heroes and do more heroic deeds of "drawing my sword to help others".
Su Qing thought happily, and reunited with Selena with a huge sum of money.
Afterwards, the two men rode their horses, carrying two dumplings, out of the mine and disappeared into the end of the night.
...
The next day, just as the sun had set, Su Qing was pushed awake from his deep sleep.
Su Qing opened his eyes drowsily. Selena's hazy curves under the swaying light refreshed him. He looked away with great willpower and quickly got up, dressed and washed up.
They rode on horseback last night until the sun was about to rise, and then they stopped in a small town called Noshiel.
Because it was not far from London, the town was very prosperous and the two of them could easily find a hotel to stay in even in the early morning.
Of course, two people each have one room.
Selena appeared in Su Qing's room because he was sleeping too soundly. After knocking on the door for a long time but no one answered, Selena broke in to wake him up.
"By the way, what are you going to do with them?"
Su Qing ate his dinner while turning his head to look at Selena.
At this moment, she was wiping the dog-leg knife in her hand over and over again with an oilcloth.
"After the interrogation, kill him." Selina said lightly without even raising her head.
After hearing her words, Su Qing had no objection. In his opinion, it was normal for vampires to kill werewolves. The vampire and wolf tribes had been fighting for centuries and had long since formed a mortal feud. If they didn't kill them, would they let them go?
But he had to be the one to kill that little wolf cub John.
Although Su Qing was just pretending to be nice during the days in the mine, he really taught John the Eastern language seriously.
But this ungrateful man just happened to overhear a few words of the conversation, and that very night he gave himself to Zhang Lei as a 'reward'.
Su Qing was narrow-minded and couldn't swallow this insult.
besides.
Now that I am in the extraordinary world, I will see blood sooner or later. It is better to do it today than to wait for a better day.
Anyway, this guy is not a good person. Since he dared to betray him, he can be used as a test subject.
Su Qing directly expressed his thoughts: "Young man, can you let me do it?"
"Okay." Selena agreed without thinking.
There was nothing much to say about what happened next. After dinner, Su Qing followed Selena to her room and witnessed a bloody interrogation.
Then, Su Qing knew the reason why John killed him, because he really heard the conversation between him and the bald man.
At this point, according to the plot requirements, there will usually be a cliché story to explain why John did this.
Unfortunately, Su Qing was not interested and was not in the mood to listen.
And with Selina's approval, he stepped forward and killed John with a single knife.
As for Su Qing's behavior after killing someone, I will not go into details.
In short, it can be summed up in two words: nothing at first, but disgusting afterwards.
Skipping these unimportant things, we come to the bald werewolf.
Su Qing knew his name was Landry, and that he came to the mine because he really wanted to join forces with John to deal with Selina, but John was stubborn and refused to agree no matter how much she tried to persuade him.
In the end, there was no other choice but to force the enemy to take action.
Lead Selina to John, and then John will have to take action even if she is unwilling.
To be honest, Landry has a good idea.
Unfortunately, he misjudged the time and thought it would take Selena another day or two to catch up with him.
So, after John refused, he chose to...rest for a night before taking action.
Because of this, he was caught off guard by Selina who came to his house in the middle of the night. He was beaten directly and John was indirectly implicated.
"What a talent!"
Su Qing shook his head after hearing this, and then curiously asked Selina beside him: "Did you find out the information you wanted to know?"
"No." Selina said with some anger.
After all, she had spent a great deal of time chasing Landry from Hungary all the way to Great Britain, only to get nothing out of him in the end.
If she hadn't been well-mannered, she would have been swearing now.
"Oh, I see." Su Qing nodded and said nothing more, but he probably guessed Landry's purpose.
Speaking of this, we have to talk about the origin of the Underworld story.
In the early 5th century, the Black Death broke out in Europe. A Hungarian duke named Alexander Corvinus unfortunately contracted the disease, but miraculously he did not die and instead overcame the virus. At the same time, the latent undead gene in his body was awakened by the disease, and he became the first and most powerful undead, possessing unmutated, pure undead genes.
Between the middle and end of the fifth century, Alexander Corvinus and his wife had three children.
Among them are the twins Marcus and William, who suffered genetic mutations due to being bitten by bats and wolves respectively, and became the ancestors of vampires and werewolves.
As for the third child, the immortality gene was not activated. He experienced birth, aging, sickness and death as an ordinary human being, and left behind a direct bloodline of Alexander, some of whom carried the immortality gene that was neither activated nor mutated. This is Michael, the protagonist of Dark Night 1.
After William became a werewolf, he could not control his anger and started hurting people everywhere. More and more people became werewolves (the first generation of werewolves, unable to transform back into human form and completely irrational), becoming a problem.
After Marcus became a vampire, he did not hurt or eat anyone at first. He only ate horses and other livestock. At the beginning, Marcus was the only vampire.
His father Alexander knew about the changes in his two sons, and he thought it shouldn't be like this (he always believed that the undead were just anomalies, the world belonged to humans, and the undead should not exist). However, due to the father-son relationship, Alexander was unwilling to kill William and the werewolf, so he lived in seclusion, watching and cleaning up after his two sons from time to time.
And this wipe, which lasts for thousands of years, fully reflects the love of the old father for his sons.
If there is a selection of people who have moved the world, and Alexander is not included, Su Qing will definitely not watch it.
Let's continue with the previous article.
Because William lost his mind and could not maintain his human form, he turned into a beast and hurt people, and kept creating werewolves. In order to find and stop his brother, Marcus felt that he could not fight against so many werewolves.
So he found two local lords, Amelia and Victor, made an agreement to turn them into vampires, and created a vampire army.
Afterwards, the three of them joined forces to successfully capture the werewolf ancestor William and imprisoned him.
Finally, under the leadership of these three people, the vampires and the developed werewolves began a centuries-long struggle.
During this process, the werewolf scientists discovered that Alexander's pure blood (immortal gene) could fuse the blood of the blood clan and the wolf clan to create a powerful hybrid that combines the advantages of werewolves and vampires.
And this hybrid is the trigger for the story of the dark night.
When watching movies before, Su Qing had heard others analyze that the wolf tribe should have started looking for the bloodline of Alexander's third child a long time ago.
It's just that for hundreds of years, no sufficiently pure bloodline was found. It wasn't until 2003 that the protagonist Michael's pure enough bloodline was discovered.
Now looking at Landry's confusing operations all the way from Hungary to Great Britain, there is a 99% chance that he is a spy sent by the wolf tribe to find pure blood.
Touching his chin, Su Qing secretly pondered Alexander's bloodline.
There is no doubt that it is the most precious and valuable thing in the world of night.
After all, he is the origin of everything, the father of the two great ancestors. "Ancestor" cannot be described, and we should add a "Tai" in front of the title of "Ancestor", "Tai Ancestor".
This is such an amazing bloodline. Once cancer is cured, I must find a way to download it.
After that, the blood of Marcus and William was gathered together. The three purest bloodlines were combined, and the hybrid born was absolutely beyond imagination.
The blood of the two great ancestors + the blood of the great ancestor = Awesome Krass!!!
"Get ready, we're leaving for London."
At this time, Selena, who was in a depressed mood, said something and turned back to her room to pack her things.
"good."
Su Qing put away his thoughts and nodded.
He had nothing to pack, so he just put the purse in his arms.
Ten minutes later.
The two met downstairs, mounted their horses and galloped towards London, known as the foggy city.
