I Can Recognize Everything, But the Information is Wrong-Chapter 17 - - Until the Point (A long Chapter, seeking continued reading)

"Hey, there's actually a bunch more I wanted to say."

Da Liu was carrying rocks on the other side, only Tian Lin had the time and opportunity to see off Boss Zhang.

"It's fine, you can stop here. If you escort me any further, Manager Xu might think we two brothers are planning to escape."

Upon reaching the fence gate, Boss Zhang said.

Tian Lin looked at his swollen face which resembled a pig's head and couldn't help but say, "I think bringing in Little Liu is a disaster, it's only been one day, and he's already so exhausted that you got beaten."

Boss Zhang touched his face and said with a smile, "This is also good, Manager Xu will throw a fit, and Little Liu will probably be quiet for a few days, not daring to make trouble anymore."

Boss Zhang asked the gatekeeping soldier to open the gate, then he briskly left the mine.

Tian Lin watched Boss Zhang leave, and only after a long while did he return to mine.

He knew that if Boss Zhang never returned, Manager Xu would most likely take out his anger on him.

His presence here served as a hostage that Boss Zhang left with Manager Xu, just like Brother Bao's brother, Bench.

Boss Zhang said he had seen about a dozen third-rate masters in the mining camp.

But there were only two second-rate masters, one of whom was the brother of Baozi, Bench.

Just like controlling Boss Zhang, Manager Xu's method to control Baozi was to use his brother Bench as a hostage.

Therefore, although Bench was a second-rate master, he always stayed in the mine's supervisor's cabin to practice.

Apart from Bench, there was another supervisor in the mine who was also a second-rate master, ranked fourth among the four masters: Six Points.

Tian Lin wasn't afraid of anyone else in the mine, but he was afraid Six Points might do something to him once Boss Zhang left.

Perhaps for this reason, Boss Zhang pulled the Liu brothers into the group.

If Da Liu helped, Six Points would have to get past him if he wanted to kill Tian Lin.

The pace of work at noon wasn't fast; everyone was listless.

Slapped earlier, Little Liu was now much more compliant, following Da Liu and carrying a basket of rocks to the mine carts.

Tian Lin did not help anyone, just held a whip in his hand, standing in the mining field.

He did not hit anyone, but wherever his gaze fell, no one dared to slack!

In fact, the mine did not need close supervision.

Because to avoid starvation, the Mine Slaves had to work hard to earn enough tokens to eat.

But today was different because of Little Liu, even if they earned more tokens, there wouldn't be any food, so naturally, some slacked off.

The person supervising with Tian Lin was a man surnamed Fan, a large man in black attire.

This fat man was not soft-handed, reviving several exhausted Mine Slaves with a few whips.

He dissatisfiedly said to Tian Lin who was just watching, "You are here to supervise, which means you should whip these lazy sods. You just stand there like a dead man, who's going to be afraid of you?"

Tian Lin glanced at Fan, then turned his head back to continue watching the Mine Slaves.

Fan's face turned green with anger, he raised his whip twice, but ultimately did not bring it down on Tian Lin.

He just cursed, "Wait until Brother Bao and Tongsha come back, I want to see if you two brothers will still be as arrogant!"

"Who is Tongsha?"

During the rest at noon, Da Liu asked Tian Lin.

Tian Lin said, "Baozi, Bench, Tongsha, and Six Points, are the four masters under Manager Xu. Except for Baozi, the others are second-rate masters."

Da Liu then asked Tian Lin, "When will Tongsha come back? I'll take him down for you."

Tian Lin looked at Da Liu's serious face, and just laughed with Da Liu, "I don't know when he will come back, but if Tongsha really does comeback, then it will be two second-rate masters against you alone."

"Are you saying Baozi's brother, that guy named Bench, will help Tongsha fight me?"

Tian Lin shook his head, "Bench has a so-so relationship with Tongsha, it's Six Points who is close to Tongsha."

"What rubbish names Bench, Tongsha, Six Points, who came up with these lousy names? Some gambler?"

Little Liu spat, discussing with Tian Lin:

"We might as well not be afraid anymore and eliminate Six Points before Tongsha returns. Once Tongsha comes back, is my brother still afraid of a second-rate master?"

His reasoning made sense, but he added after he finished speaking, "However, my brother and I are both Mine Slaves, and acting against superiors might not be liked by Manager Xu."

Tian Lin laughed, Boss Zhang was right.

Manager Xu's slap was indeed effective, at least Little Liu knew to be cautious.

"Let's wait until Boss Zhang comes back to discuss this."

In the afternoon, Little Liu and Da Liu still carried rocks, and Tian Lin perfunctorily completed his supervisory duties.

That evening, the three went to the river to bathe, and after Tian Lin practiced a set of boxing, he went back to the hut to meditate.

The wooden hut was filled with complaints, as after a busy day, people hadn't had even a sip of porridge, depending solely on the stream water to fill their stomachs.

Little Liu and Da Liu were actually alright, one a second-rate master, and the other had snatched a few bowls of porridge in the morning so he wasn't too uncomfortably hungry.

They looked towards the meditating Tian Lin, hearing Da Liu say:

"Your boxing seems a bit rusty, haven't you practiced for long? I will teach you blade techniques in a few days, blade techniques are more suited for desperate struggles."

Tian Lin didn't reply, that night he consumed three 'Holy Essence Grass' and now had twenty years of skill.

The next day, Tian Lin was still supervising, and he sat cross-legged on a large boulder where the Mine Slaves passed by.

He even skipped supervising altogether this time, simply meditating on the boulder.

Fan, seeing Tian Lin's lax attitude, was extremely frustrated.

In the afternoon, Tian Lin was still the same, Fan finally couldn't hold back and whipped Tian Lin, cursing:

"Manager Xu asked you to supervise, and here you are playing the lord?"

Tian Lin opened his eyes, and as Fan whipped down again, this time Jiang intercepted it.

Jiang grabbed the whip and glared fiercely at Fan.

Knowing that Jiang was a second-rate master, Fan felt a bit intimidated.

But under the watchful eyes of the crowd, how could he show any weakness?

"What? You, Mine Slave, dare to rebel against your superiors?"

When Wang Fatso shouted, some Supervisors who were playing dice inside the wooden hut came out with knives.

Da Liu's gaze then turned to a middle-aged man among the Supervisors, a man who had a beard but was bald with six scars encircling his head.

Those six scars clearly denoted the man's identity, making both Da Liu and Tian Lin think to themselves that Manager Xu had a rather interesting way of naming.

Wasn't this monk, with those six dots on his head?

"What's going on?"

Six Dots approached with his people, his gaze sizing up Da Liu and Tian Lin.

Tian Lin stood in front of Da Liu and said to Six Dots, "Wang Fatso whipped me for no reason at all."

Yet Six Dots replied, "Wang Fatso whipped you, you should have hit back. Why call two Mine Slaves to interfere? Are you trying to incite a revolt among the Mine Slaves?"

At this point, Xiao Liu spoke up, "That's quite an accusation, you're bullying my younger brother without reason. As his older brothers, should we just stand by and watch?"

Six Dots laughed and asked Tian Lin, "What do you say?"

Looking at Six Dots and the Supervisors behind him, Tian Lin said to Da Liu and Xiao Liu, "Second Brother, Third Brother, let's just drop it for now. Let's wait until Big Brother returns and talk it over then."

"Just let yourself be whipped for nothing?"

Xiao Liu was indignant, but Tian Lin said, "They have more people, we can't beat them. Besides, being Mine Slaves, it's not beneficial for us to oppose them."

Da Liu released Wang Fatso's whip, and Wang Fatso gave a cold laugh, indicating to Tian Lin, "Waiting for Mr. Zhang to come back and avenge you, huh?"

The crowd dispersed, but Xiao Liu was still unsatisfied by the afternoon's end of work.

He said to Tian Lin, "We don't even know when Big Brother will return; are we supposed to endure this humiliation indefinitely?"

Da Liu said sternly, "Drink your porridge, don't make it hard for your younger brother."

Tian Lin did not speak, and when Manager Xu appeared from outside the mine, Tian Lin went to meet him.

He could tell, Manager Xu was in a good mood, probably having won quite a bit of money in town.

Indeed, Manager Xu had won money and even showed a smile to Tian Lin, asking, "Little Tian, why aren't you resting instead of coming out to greet me?"

Tian Lin immediately complained, "Manager Xu, when you were away today, Wang Fatso and the others bullied me."

While speaking, Tian Lin lifted his shirt to show the whip marks on his back to Manager Xu.

What did Manager Xu care?

He waved his hand and said, "He hit you, you hit him back. What's with all the fuss? Alright, go back first, I'll have a word with him later."

Manager Xu hastily dismissed Tian Lin, and once Tian Lin returned to the hut, all eyes were on him.

Xiao Liu asked Tian Lin, "What did Manager Xu say?"

Tian Lin honestly replied, "Manager Xu said if Wang Fatso hits me, I should just hit him back and not to bother him."

Xiao Liu angrily said, "What kind of response is that? Wang Fatso is a third-rate expert, how long have you been practicing martial arts?"

The other Mine Slaves looked sympathetically at Tian Lin, with one saying, "Manager Tian, a moment of patience can calm a storm; it's best to avoid Wang Fatso these next few days."

Tian Lin remained silent and began to meditate on his bed.

The next day, it wasn't Tian Lin's turn to supervise, but he still ran up to the mine to meditate.

Wang Fatso, annoyed, said, "I don't want to trouble you now, but don't come here and get in my way. Irritate me, and even if I have to endure Manager Xu's whip, I will beat you up first."

Tian Lin didn't say a word, continuing to meditate.

Luckily, the day passed without any conflicts between Tian Lin and Wang Fatso, but when Manager Xu returned from gambling in town, somehow there was a new scratch mark on Tian Lin's chest.

Seeing the scratch, Manager Xu's good mood was ruined, and he sternly asked, "What happened now?"

Tian Lin explained, "I don't know, I was just bathing in the creek when someone pushed me from behind and almost cut my chest."

Furious to the point of thundering, Manager Xu took a whip and lashed Tian Lin twice, then ran to the Supervisors' dormitory and lashed everyone there.

"The lot of you are rebelling!"

Manager Xu cursed, "Is it easy for me to win some money when I go out? Every day I'm not at the mine, you start fighting. If you want to fight that much, why don't you fight me?"

The Supervisors looked at each other and said, "Manager Xu, are you mistaken? We were peaceful today, no one fought anyone."

Manager Xu scoffed, "Better be true."

He then turned and glared at Tian Lin, "You useless trash, are you not going to scram? Getting beaten and then running to tattle, why don't you fight back?"

Tian Lin lowered his head and returned to the wooden hut, where everyone was watching him.

When Da Liu helped Tian Lin take off his clothes, the shocking whip marks on Tian Lin's body made everyone in the hut gasp in shock.

"Did Manager Xu do this? This old man is too bullying, knowing full well you're the weaker one, the one who gets bullied, yet he only beats you and no one else."

Da Liu clenched his fist and rose to leave.

Tian Lin grabbed Da Liu and said, "Everyone in the Supervisors' dormitory was whipped by Manager Xu; he just didn't want to bother investigating."

"He only cares about gambling, I don't know how the Shang Family trusts him to manage the mine!"

After Xiao Liu cursed Manager Xu, he turned to Tian Lin with a mixture of frustration and disappointment, "You can't beat them yourself, and you won't let me help you. What kind of situation is this, being so meek and ineffectual?"

The next morning, Tian Lin was at the mine practicing again.

Wang Fatso, unable to restrain himself when seeing Tian Lin meditating like a statue on the rock, said, "Tian, be honest, it wasn't me who provoked the trouble these past few days, right? What do you want by coming here and buzzing around me?"

Tian Lin opened his eyes, drew out his knife and said, "Let's settle this, do you dare?"

Wang Fatso laughed angrily, "You think I don't dare?"

"Let us stop when it reaches the point; if I lose, I'll avoid you from now on and not come looking for your trouble anymore!"

After Tian Lin spoke, Wang Fatso said, "Alright, then let me show you the skills of a third-rate expert."

He dropped his whip and also took out the knife from his waist, though he didn't draw it from its sheath.

Their actions caught the attention of everyone at the mine, Da Liu and Xiao Liu quickly dropped their burdens and ran over.

They knew Wang Fatso's strength and feared Tian Lin would be disadvantaged.
