The next day seemed late, and before the sky was dark, clear yellow lanterns were hung high on various stalls in Mengchengji.
The entire Mengcheng was shrouded in warmth, crowded with people, children's playful sounds and peddlers' hawkings and shouting, noisy and noisy, but for no reason, make people feel lively and warm.
Xiao Rongyan planned to leave for Nanyan Capital tomorrow morning, so today came to join in the fun of the evening market.
It was probably because Xiao Rongyan came on the first day and was too generous, so many vendors who saw him knew Xiao Rongyan and held his own goods forward.
Xiao Rongyan was attracted by a white horse that day and missed the slave market. He made a special trip today to visit there.
When he walked to the slave market with a knife guard, the largest slave trader in the market was pulling a unkempt girl standing on a high place to yell: "Don't look at this little girl with unkempt hair, but look at this little girl with unkempt hair, but look at this little girl with unkempt hair. The material worn by the girl... is definitely the child of the wealthy family of Jin State! It must be fine skin and tender flesh. If you buy it and train it carefully, you will have endless blessings in the future!"
As soon as the loud voice of the slave trader fell, a man watching the fun crowded and shouted: "Wearing such thick clothes, how do we know if it is tender and tender? Let's take a look... , so that we can know if it is really tender and tender!”
A woman who was watching the fun in the slave market frowned and left.
The little lady who was pulled by a slave trader trembled all over and hugged herself hard, her face turned pale. If she stripped her clothes in public and was touched again, she would have no shame to survive. She immediately struggled: "Let me go." ! A soldier can be killed but not humiliated! I must not suffer such humiliation!”
The young lady was crying and knew that the scholars could be killed or humiliated, so she spoke another official language from Jin State. She thought she was indeed a girl from a wealthy family.
The more intense the young lady on the stage struggled, the more miserable the more she cried, the more excited the audience was.
"It won't be possible to touch it! But it can really make you take a good look!"
As he said that, the slave trader went to tear the girl's clothes.
But before the slave trader could really pull the girl's clothes, the slave trader's hand pulled back as if he had been stung by something. He opened his eyes wide and looked around as if he saw a ghost, but he was not careful for a moment. The crying young lady actually struggled away his hand and almost hit the pillar. Fortunately, she was grabbed by the two thugs of the slave trader in time.
The slave trader looked down at his swollen hands, hell?!
"Hey! Do you want us to watch it?" A man below started to cheer.
"Did this guy buy it after seeing it?" the slave trader asked with a smile.
The man asked, with his sleeves in his hands, his ears turned red and he shrank into the crowd. He just wanted to take advantage of it. If he really had the money to buy hard work, wouldn't he go to the brothel to have fun early?
The little lady who was captured by a slave trader's thug was still crying, begging the slave trader to give her a pleasure and let her die!
The rich man who was originally interested in this little lady who spoke soft Jin State's official language had to stop thinking about his death when he saw that the little lady was about to seek death. Otherwise, if he bought it back and found that the girl would die, wouldn't he use the money to waste it?
Xiao Rongyan was far away, and his eyes fell on the high platform that was falling on the wooden board. He saw a stone not far from the feet of the slave dealer, and his eyes passed over the trafficker and looked at the cage behind him.
In the darkness of the cage, there was a teenager sitting cross-legged in the corner dressed in rags. The boy looked not old... he looked like a fifteen or sixteen years old, but he sat like a green pine tree, with his own posture as a young man from a family.
Maybe he noticed someone looking at him, the boy raised his eyes...
Xiao Rongyan's eyes shrank slightly, and the child's eyes looked familiar, with a deep and quiet look. Since he could use stones to strike the slave trader, he would have some skills, so how could he be caught?!
Or... the family's poverty was sold?
The boy sat calmly in the cage without escaping Xiao Rongyan's gaze at all. He was not like a child from a poor family? And he was a strong laborer at the age of fifteen or sixteen, and he was not a baby who could only eat, drink and not count on for food and drink at the age of three or four.
Xiao Rongyan thought for a while, turned his head and ordered Wang Jiuzhou beside him.
Wang Jiuzhou nodded, spared the crowd in front and went to the back to find the slave trader, pointed to the person sitting cross-legged in the cage and said he wanted to buy it.
The slave trader accompanied the little face and said, "You have such a good vision! That's a Jin soldier I saved on the road. It's no problem to buy it back and do anything! It's just a little expensive!"
Wang Jiuzhou smiled and took out a purse from his sleeve and threw it to the slave trader, saying, "So many... buy this Jin soldier, and the little girl from Jin just now! Is it enough?!"
When the slave trader opened it, he was so happy that his eyes narrowed into a slit. His attitude was more flattering and attentive than before: "Enough enough! Absolutely enough! Only a lot more! That's how much money you have... I feel sorry for you! You
Pick two more and take them away..."
The slave trader seemed to be ready to open his mind and tried to introduce himself to Wang Jiuzhou. Wang Jiuzhou smiled and said, "No, I just want these two! Our master is still waiting, so he dare not delay! He dare not be good at it!"
The slave trader nodded repeatedly and asked someone to take the girl and the boy in the cage out for Wang Jiuzhou to take him away.
Before leaving, the young man looked at the slave trader and bowed to the ground and thanked him for saving his life. No matter what the slave trader's purpose was, the cold Jinghe River would be a good thing, if it weren't for this slave
The dealer saved him...he had been frozen to death.
It was about the first time that the slave trader saw that he was sold and even saluted him. He was stunned for a moment, and before he could come back to his senses... he saw the young man walking away with the manager.
Wang Jiuzhou brought the two people he bought back to the big house that Xiao Rongyan rented.
As someone asked someone to carry water and let the two take a shower and change their clothes, Wang Jiuzhou sat on the chair and drank tea slowly, guessing that the master wanted to buy the man and a woman.
Soon the young man who was bathing and changing clothes changed out, and even Wang Jiuzhou, who had seen countless people, was shocked.
The young man was straight and slender, with extraordinary handsome features, especially his eyes... his sharpness and sharpness, and his demeanor was definitely not an ordinary boy, and he could be called a dragon and phoenix among people.
How could such a person fall into the hands of slave traders?
While he was confused, Wang Jiuzhou felt that his master's eyes were like torches, and his face was unkempt and buried in the cage. The master also knew that this young man was extraordinary.
Perhaps because of the young man's noble demeanor, Wang Jiuzhou, who was used to being a slave, spoke very politely to the young man and asked the young man to go with him to meet his master.
