Chapter 984 Smiling Face
On the screen, the storyline keeps advancing.
Although they cannot understand human language, only a very small part of the information they communicate is through language, and most of it is expressions and body movements.
By putting themselves in Ah Chui's shoes and combining it with their own experiences, they can probably get an idea of what kind of story this is.
They watched Ah Chui being imprisoned in the dark and damp lower level of the War Dog. He had very little food every day and was forced to do very heavy labor. Young Ah Chui soon fell ill and couldn't help but feel sorry for him. worry.
They were relieved to see Ah Chui gradually recovering under the care of an old hammer coolie.
Lao Chui takes care of A Chui like a father, helping him with his heavy daily work and saving his own food for him.
Next, there was a series of sharp scissors. The bottom hatch opened and closed again and again, and beams of light shone on Ah Chui. He gradually grew up, became stronger and stronger, and his body and skin became more and more... It became rougher, but his eyes became darker and darker, and the smile on his hammer was gradually worn away to the point where it was almost invisible.
The old man next to him was getting thinner and weaker.
But he still stretched out his hand, covering A Chui's fist hammer and the smiling face painted by A Chui with his big hand.
But after all, this is a place that will take away all the beauty and hope.
It takes away your life and everything important in your life.
The war began, and all the Hammer coolies were dragged out. They desperately delivered fuel to the steam core to drive the huge war dog.
Fight, bomb, fly, dodge, repair...
The high-intensity battle lasted for a long time. The old hammer man's speed became slower and slower. The supervisor next to him waved his whip and drove him as if he was not a hammer man but a machine.
Finally, the old hammer fell down.
"This old guy is useless." A supervisor with a red tassel on his helmet kicked the old hammer man, curled his lips in disgust, and said to Ah Chui: "You, throw him into the furnace! "
Ah Chui resisted desperately, but what greeted him was endless whips.
Ah Chui cried and roared, trying his best to protect the old hammer man, but the old hammer man pushed him away, struggled to stand up, and jumped into the furnace.
At that moment, everyone in the audience couldn't help but exclaimed, and this exclamation covered up their roars.
"No!"
But no matter how much A Chui or they screamed in front of the screen, they could not save the old Hammer from being swallowed up by the flames.
The armor on the old hammer man melted instantly, and his body also burned.
He looked up at Ah Chui, stretched out his hand, and said three words silently:
"Stay alive."
What to do with your life? Everything important in life is gone, so why continue to live?
"Become them." The old hammer man turned into a ball of human-shaped charcoal, collapsed and shattered...
The open hand seemed to want to hold something, but in the end it turned into ashes.
Next to him, a hammer man numbly threw all the coal into the furnace, completely covering up the old hammer man.
"Ah!" Ah Chui roared like a wounded beast.
The overseer's whip hit him all over the face, and A Chui seemed not to feel the slightest pain. He stared blankly at the figure that had completely disappeared in the fire.
Live and be them?
Who do they want to be?
Will he become a numb Hammer coolie, or will he become a more numb Hammer guard who in turn bullies his companions?
From that day on, Ah Chui seemed to have lost his soul. He worked and ate mechanically, his eyes never lit up again, and the smile on his right fist had completely disappeared.
The tone of the movie at this time is so dark and depressing that it makes people breathless.
There were fewer and fewer Hammermen coolies around him, and he threw the corpses of his companions--or just those who were unable to continue working--into the furnace.
Until one day, while he was still being held on the lower deck, he suddenly heard a loud noise and the cabin shook suddenly.
There was a hole in the cabin, and a beam of light suddenly shone in from the outside and hit his face.
That's sunshine!
So warm and bright, Ah Chui subconsciously raised his fist and held it in front of him.
The sun shone from the side, and he suddenly saw that the smiling face he thought had been worn away was still vaguely visible on his fist.
At this moment, the soundtrack sounded, and he slowly retracted his fist and looked around.
Suddenly, I discovered that in this place where the sun never shines, next to the old hammer man’s bedding, there are actually all kinds of paintings!
There are buildings outside, trees, weird and imaginary things, and two Hammermen sitting together. The little Hammerman is leaning on the old Hammerman's arms, with a big smiling face painted next to him.
Although it is so dark that you can't even see your fingers, there are still dreams, hopes, and all the beautiful things here.
The camera turned in front of him, and the light and shadow were constantly changing.
"Ah -" Ah Chui raised his head and let out a sad roar. He closed his eyes and tears poured down his face.
Ah Chui's sadness was in great contrast to the numbness of the people around him.
At this point, the soundtrack suddenly became passionate.
An overseer opened the hatch and shouted inside, ordering the hammermen to repair the war dog immediately.
The Hammers got up numbly and lined up to walk out.
Ah Chui followed the crowd and walked out. When he walked in front of the supervisor, he suddenly raised his right arm and struck out with a hammer.
There was a loud "hoo" sound.
Now Ah Chui was much stronger than before. When he hit it with his right fist, the helmet of the Hammer overseer immediately dented and his brain burst.
Ah Chui shouted something to the hammermen next to him. They all looked at Ah Chui blankly, not even exclaiming or running away.
Ah Chui yelled angrily, drew out the hammer sword of the hammer overseer, and rushed outside.
A Hammerman overseer with a red tassel on his head rushed over, shouting loudly.
Seeing this red-tasseled supervisor, Ah Chui's eyes suddenly turned red.
He roared and rushed forward. The overseer smiled ferociously and drew his hammer sword.
At that moment, the whole place was excited.
"Cut him, chop him!"
"Kill him! Kill him quickly!"
"It was this bastard who killed Old Hammer!"
"Fuck him!"
Several members of the Hammer Guards had red eyes and shouted loudly: "Be careful with his left hand!"
"His right foot is not sensitive, he must have been injured!"
"Hurry up and chop off his right foot!"
"Hide quickly!"
On the screen, Ah Chui was retreating steadily and was covered in bruises. Several members of the Hammer Guards almost rushed in to help.
Just when Ah Chui was about to be killed, there was a sudden explosion in the furnace, and Hongying supervisor glanced back subconsciously.
With just this distraction, Ah Chui rushed up and pounced on him regardless of his own safety.
With a "boom", the two people fell into the furnace together.
