Human traffickers, this kind of hybrid thing that has not yet become extinct in modern times, naturally live well in Huiyao.
In fact, it is not impossible to eliminate human traffickers, because Huiyao has a technology that is more powerful than its previous life: Huiyao Charter Identification Technology.
This reconnaissance technology, which has long been used in the military, can accurately determine the relative position of a target based on the chip identification code on the back of a person's neck. That is to say, this world has not yet developed computer information technology, otherwise it would be like "Harry Potter"
》Sooner or later, the Marauder's Map that can show everyone's specific location will appear.
However, the Charter Department has direct jurisdiction over the royal family and will not act rashly unless it is an important matter. Therefore, this kind of tracing technology developed thousands of years ago will naturally not be able to fly into the homes of ordinary people - unless you, an ordinary person, rebel.
However, it was difficult for Le Yu to personally feel the existence of human traffickers in his past life. In his past life, he lived in a first-tier city and even dared to stay in an Internet cafe at night; in this life, he was the captain of the statistics department of Xingke County, and the gangsters on the 18th Street were shocked when they saw him.
Shake three times.
Therefore, even though Le Yu understood the young man's words, he was stunned for a long time.
Was he caught by a trafficker?
He is a young man in his twenties, a dark night walker who has hidden sword fighting skills to get into the house, a master who has mastered the biting fighting skills, an assassin from an unknown organization, and the first person in charge of Star Carved County in White Night, but he was actually caught by a human trafficker?
Is it because I can’t lift the knife, or are you a trafficker too coquettish?
Le Yu directly grabbed the chain in his hand and pulled it, but as soon as he moved, he realized that there was something wrong with his body.
The young man sighed: "He fed us cartilage powder. His limbs are weak and his spirit is weak. You can't break the chain."
I have heard about the cartilage powder. The main ingredients of the Boimian Decoction of Medical Lawsuit are the same as the cartilage powder. When it is prepared, it is a non-toxic sleep aid. When it is not prepared, it is a cartilage powder that damages the internal organs. It is said that the gangsters are particularly fond of it.
If you use this kind of cartilage powder to harm people, you can just listen to it as urban rumors.
Unexpectedly, he was attacked not long after leaving Xingke County.
"That bowl of tea..."
"Obviously they are a group." The young man sighed: "I originally saw so many people in the car and thought nothing would happen, so I just drank. Unexpectedly..."
This sentence awakened Le Yu. He looked at the four people in the carriage and suddenly realized: "Those villagers are there to lower our vigilance!"
If a traveler sees no one on the carriage, he will naturally be more wary. However, the large number of villagers on the carriage can easily give people the impression that "this carriage has been operating here for many years", so the traveler will naturally not be more suspicious!
The young man gritted his teeth and said, "Those villagers should have been hired locally, and the tea sheds were built temporarily. Once the carriage leaves, the village can pretend they don't know anything."
After thinking about it carefully, Le Yu realized that this game was connected with each other. The carriage parked outside the village, the free tea soup, and the villagers in the car. He was not wronged at all——
"It's common sense outside to not eat any food or drinks provided by boat shops or related parties."
Gan, Yin Yin Yin, how can you still speak in my mind even though you are dead!
However, Le Yu was still full of doubts. He asked: "But why are the traffickers arresting us?"
Among the four people in the car, except for the sobbing teenager, the other three are young adults. As far as Le Yu's common sense is concerned, human traffickers either arrest women or children, but it is impossible to arrest young adults - the first two can be easily restrained.
, but young adults can escape if they want, and they have no added value except labor. The risks are high and the returns are low. Why arrest them?
The young man was silent for a moment: "They probably captured us as slaves."
"Slave?" Le Yu was stunned: "Huiyao abolished the slavery system a hundred years ago, right?"
Note that the music language refers to slaves, not slaves. Slavery disappeared before the founding of Huiyao, and the slave system gradually disappeared in modern times. Slavery is closely related to productivity. When people don’t even have food to eat, they sell themselves to a wealthy family.
It is natural for wealthy merchants to do so. Even if it is banned, there are still many people who can survive as slaves.
The industrial revolution began more than a hundred years ago, production technology exploded, and high-yield production crops from overseas flowed into Huiyao. The situation of "unable to survive" gradually decreased, and escaped slaves frequently occurred, so Huiyao took advantage of the situation and abolished slaves.
system to further liberate productivity.
"Looking at your accent, you must be a local of Morrowind District." The young man said: "Except for the maids and slaves maintained by the wealthy families in Morrowind District, it is indeed rare in other places. Servants here are more of a symbol of status...
…But in Dongyang District, in the northern part of Morrowind District, things are different."
"Dongyang District has developed maritime trade and has many plantations and factories. Rather than hiring workers, they are more willing to buy out slaves directly and let the slaves work for them all day long, just like the machines in the factory, which never stop running... Even the children there
We cannot accept that we are forced to work in factories because they must be trying to sell us there!"
Le Yu felt a little incredible: "Does the court not care about it?"
"How does the court control it?" the young man asked back: "The tax revenue of Dongyang District is the highest among the eight districts, and the officials and businessmen are all integrated into one. How can the court control it? And this matter has only slowly emerged in the past ten years. The court even controls the Tianji District.
If not, what ability do you have to manage Dongyang District?"
Hearing this, the boy next to him finally couldn't help but screamed: "I don't want to be a slave... I want to go home, I originally wanted to go home!"
The young man shook his head: "If we get to Dongyang, we really can't escape. Let's not mention that the county guards will help hunt down the slaves. Prices there are very high. Ordinary people have to go to the factory and work hard all day just to have enough food and clothing. Instead, they become slaves.
There are still dormitories and medical officers to take care of you... If you want to escape, you must escape before entering Dongyang."
The young man nodded his chin at the big man next to Le Yu who had stuffed his mouth with a ball: "This guy seems to be practicing Aiki warfare. It's a pity that he couldn't roar the door open, otherwise we would have a chance..."
The Aiki method is a very interesting method of the Eighteenth Official Method. Its core concept is "sound". The warrior can chant specific syllables every time he attacks, which can not only strengthen the power of the light explosion, but also damage the enemy.
It can cause mental shock or even damage, and can even produce a light explosion just by sound.
Le Yu glanced at the big man next to him. If he was really a martial arts warrior, he could indeed explode the carriage with a roar. But now that everyone has eaten cartilage powder, even if he roared like a lion before, his current power would probably be only
It can be considered a meow.
"Brother, you must be no ordinary person." The young man suddenly whispered, his eyes always focused on Le Yu's head, "You are our last hope."
Le Yu subconsciously touched his head and realized that the turban was gone and everyone else could see his white hair.
In addition, the package is missing, which means that all Yin Yin Yin's equipment has been taken away.
He does have the ability to destroy carriages.
Not to mention that the 'Saint's Relic' wristband on his wrist can turn into a phantom weapon (replica) at any time. His ice-blood physique alone can weaken half of the effects of Cartilage Powder. He is not as powerful as others imagine.
So weak and powerless.
but……
Facing the young man's expectant gaze, Le Yu's eyes flickered, and he suddenly showed a confident smile: "Don't worry, you guys know what the Black Clothes Building is? I'm from the Black Clothes Building, and there will be dozens of starburst airflows later.
The swordsman in black came to save me."
…
…
Xingke County.
"You come to claim the body? But you... don't seem to be his relative."
"Yes, his relatives have left Xingke County. I am his junior student. I can properly place his body."
The officer from the Criminal Division looked at the young man in front of him with bangs covering his eyes, then looked at his military academy student ID card, and finally nodded: "Sign this form."
He signed his name on the form: Xia Linguo.
Entering the lobby where corpses were temporarily placed, Xia Linguo met an old couple leaving with sad faces. They were pushing a trolley with a body on it.
Xia Linguo knew this dead man.
He is actually dead too... He obviously ran so fast...
Xia Linguo was a little surprised, but did not stop.
After passing countless relatives crying and grieving, Xia Linguo came to a body wrapped in a body bag - the others were covered with straw mats, but the fact that this body could be wrapped in a body bag was enough to prove its weight.
He opened the body bag, and the shocking injuries on the body immediately appeared in front of him. He looked calm and turned over the body to check the injuries regardless of the dirt.
Just like observing a work of art, Xia Linguo looked at it for more than ten minutes before stopping, closing his eyes and sitting cross-legged in front of the corpse to meditate.
"The fatal injury was the sword wound on the back."
"He cannot leave his back to the enemy."
"He suffered betrayal from an acquaintance."
"The only acquaintance he had in that place was Chen Fu, but Chen Fu didn't know how to use a sword."
"He has other accomplices."
"He didn't betray Bai Ye."
Xia Linguo opened his eyes and seemed to see the scene last night:
"So, those who attacked him were the survivors of the White Night."
