Chapter 257 Shadow of Darkness(2/2)
This was the handling of the Brad family by the Council at that time, and it should have ended here.
However, the disaster has just begun.
For these relatives, this kind of thing is simply a disaster. Although they are also very wronged, the law is the law after all, and treason is a serious crime, and there is no possibility of disobeying.
However, even slaves had some food to eat. However, they never thought that their destiny would change here.
Slaves can be traded freely. Just after these relatives became slaves, a wealthy businessman soon came. He bought all the children under the age of sixteen in the Brad family and took them home. The girl in front of her and the dark shadows around her were one of them.
At first, these children were very scared. They thought they would do heavy work and live a life worse than pigs and dogs. But things were beyond their expectations. The businessman not only did not let them do any work, but also gave them good food and drinks. They let them eat, sleep and eat every day. Except for not being able to let them leave, they almost lived a dreamlike life.
Next, things began to change.
The children found that there was a delicious drink next to the food every day, and the food was not eaten, but this drink had to be drunk. At first, several children tried to resist, but were quickly pulled out and beaten to death. These children, who had never been beaten by anyone since childhood, had never experienced such a thing, so they obediently drank the strange drink.
Very delicious.
But what followed was demonic pain. Until later, these children had to drink that drink at every meal, otherwise they would be in great pain. The girl once saw a disobedient child who had no drink and finally killed himself by the wall because he didn't drink that drink. At that time, everyone noticed the problem, but they could no longer stop.
Then, their bodies began to change.
The skin, which was originally white, began to turn black and foul-smelling tumors. Some people even lost their ambitions and even their companions bite and eat them alive. At this moment, the businessman showed his vicious face. He placed poison in the food of the children who had changed. Many of them were poisoned to death, and then were pulled to a distant place by the carriage. As for the girl and the other black shadows in front of him, I don’t know if it was because of physical changes that caused resistance to poison or other reasons. In short, they survived and hid in a cave near the village. They also knew that their form was ugly. In order to prevent being caught by others, they only dared to slip down the mountain after dark, steal some food in the village, or pick some wild vegetables on the mountain to eat.
Of course, they have heard of Marian's name. As the best members of the Brad family, almost all their parents have educated these children with Marian's deeds, so when they heard Marian's name, these children immediately recalled their original life.
"We just want to live quietly here. Sir, please let us go..."
Faced with the girl's plea, Yi Ming remained silent, and then sighed for a while and asked.
