Chapter 2 Killing!
Twelve years later.
Tabkal region.
Tabukar is the territory of the Ziye Kingdom, which is not a big country, but a small country south of the Gujiang River. The Tabukar area is a famous slave concentration area in the Ziye Kingdom.
Yes, they are slaves.
In the entire vast ancient continent, slaves are the lowest status among human beings. Slaves can be traded like pure commodities, and their owners can decide life and death at will. If you have to compare, the status of most slaves is even
Not as good as livestock.
The Tabkal area was the poorest place in the surrounding area a long time ago. After the founding of the Ziye Kingdom, it naturally became the largest slave supply area in the Ziye Kingdom. People here will become slaves from birth. This is destined
Because if you don't become a slave, you will starve to death. Two hundred years ago, the king of the Midnight Kingdom even decided that all people in the Tabukar area would become slaves.
Tabkal, a typical slave cave.
The so-called houses here are all made of broken branches, sticks and rags. Not to mention protecting them from wind and rain, even a slightly stronger wind will blow these houses down.
The dilapidated houses are gathered together to form the slave cave in front of you. Although the slave cave is small, it is home to more than a thousand people.
The sun was scorching, and everyone was tanned. Just when everyone was huddled in a cool place as much as possible, a figure suddenly ran across the path in the slave cave!
This is a boy of about twelve years old, with a handsome face, but there is a hint of sharpness and cunning between his eyebrows. He is wearing loose coarse clothes that are completely inconsistent with his figure, and his lower body is wearing a large pant made of unknown pieces of cloth woven together.
.The boy ran very fast. Behind him were five or six children who were several years older than him, but they couldn't catch up with him at all.
And right in front of this child was wearing something that should not appear in a slave cave at all - a necklace!
This necklace looks very shiny, especially the strange pendant, which turns out to be a ring. This ring is full of strange and irregular patterns. As long as you stare at it for a while, you will feel violent dizziness, and even
Fainted and fell unconscious.
The boy's skin is also different from the others in the slave cave. Although it is a little bit dark, it is not as dark as others, but full of health and vitality.
The color of vitality is wheat. Not only that, under the constant exposure to wind and sun, other children's skin appears dry, but his skin is very smooth, as if it has never been affected by the environment.
The young man ran wildly, disturbing many people's rest, but everyone knew this guy, and they all laughed and scolded him. Until the young man ran for a while, and was suddenly caught by a thick arm!
"Xiao Liu, what trouble did you get into again?" A tall, strong man scolded the young man in a rich voice, "Go, apologize to me!"
The young man known as Xiao Liu looked at the middle-aged man and was stunned, then showed a flattering smile and said, "Dad, I didn't get into any trouble this time. They fell down on their own and they have nothing to do with me."
!”
Hearing the young man's words, the middle-aged man frowned even more, grabbed Xiao Liu's wrist and strode back. The young man sighed helplessly when he saw this, and followed obediently without resisting.
Soon, several middle-aged people walked towards me. Behind the middle-aged people were a few children with bruised noses and swollen faces. It looked like the nosebleeds had not been wiped away. The middle-aged people walked up to them angrily and said loudly, "Old Lin,
Look what good things your children have done?!"
Lin Gang heard this and glanced at the children. They were indeed beaten badly. He couldn't help frowning and turned to look at Xiaoliu beside him and said, "You still don't want to apologize to them?"
Xiaoliu curled his lips after hearing this, walked up to a few middle-aged people, bowed, and said loudly, "I'm sorry! I will definitely not do this next time!"
"My ears are getting numb after hearing this!" The middle-aged man said angrily, "How many times has it happened? It's impossible for this kid to change! Look at the children nearby, how many have not been beaten by him? Anyway, this year
He has reached his age, so let him be bought as soon as possible!"
Hearing the last sentence, Lin Gang frowned, took a step forward and shouted angrily, "Old Zhou, what did you say?"
Lao Zhou was shocked when he saw Lin Gang getting angry. After all, Lin Gang was also the strongest person here. Just when he was about to say something, suddenly there was a shrill horn sound outside!
Everyone in the slave cave was stunned when they heard this, and they all quickly got up from the ground. They quickly put on all the clothes they could put on, and those who had already put on clothes quickly ran outside!
Lin Gang and Xiao Liu did the same. They also followed the crowd and ran outside. Soon all the slaves ran out of the slave cave. A thousand people were scattered in several rows, exposed to the hot sun.
Standing in front of all the slaves was a group of people on horseback and in sedan chairs. Each rider on the horse was wearing a sword and looked majestic, while the people in the sedan chair were all dressed in luxurious clothes and were lying comfortably in the cool sedan chair. There were people beside them.
The maid fanned herself. Compared with the slave beside her, whose lips were dry and cracked under the scorching sun, and whose clothes were in tatters, it was dazzling.
These people in front of me are all wealthy families in Tianmu City. Whenever their families are short of slaves, they will come here to choose slaves. You must know that slaves are very easy to consume. After all, slaves who cannot do the job can be executed directly.
.
Lin Gang stood closely with Xiaoliu and his wife Yang Ru. Looking at the people in front of them who are likely to become the future 'masters'. People here are eager to be elected, because here, they are likely to be
starve.
"Everyone, please choose for yourselves!" A man riding a horse and holding a whip turned to everyone after seeing all the slaves coming out.
Those wealthy people did not speak, but directly let the slaves carrying the sedan chair into the crowd of slaves. These people would hold a long ruler in their hands. Every time they met an interested slave, they would use the ruler to lift the slave's face.
, or use a ruler to lift up the slave's clothes.
No one dares to resist the inspection of these people, because if they resist, they will be killed immediately.
Finally, a luxurious sedan stopped in front of Lin Gang's family. Through the gauze, you could see a man who looked like a fat pig lying inside. His face was full of fat and looked extremely disgusting.
I saw the man's small eyes darting around. He looked at Lin Gang. He seemed to be very satisfied with Lin Gang's strong physique. Then he turned to look at the woman and the boy beside Lin Gang. When he saw this woman
, his eyes couldn’t help but light up!
A person's appearance has nothing to do with status. Although Yang Ru was born in the slave area, she did have some beauty. The fat man suddenly became interested and picked up the ruler and kept playing with Yang Ru's face. Lin Gang was beside him.
He frowned and his whole body tensed up, and he felt his wife's hand shaking as she held him.
However, this kind of thing is common in the slave area, and female sex is one of the reasons why many people come here to select slaves. Many people's wives have been selected, but now it is Lin Gang's turn, and he feels extremely uncomfortable.
Just when the fat man was about to use the ruler to lift up the woman's clothes for inspection, the ruler that had touched the edge of the clothes was suddenly grabbed by a strong hand!
The fat man was stunned and looked at Lin Gang who was standing aside. He saw Lin Gang staring angrily, which shocked the fat man!
"What are you doing?" The fat man asked in a panic.
"This master." Lin Gang frowned and said hoarsely, "She is weak and can't do much hard work. I am the strongest here and I am much more useful than her!"
When the fat man heard the man in front of him calling him 'Master', he suddenly realized that the man in front of him was a slave. Thinking that he had been scared just now, he couldn't help but become angry and said loudly like a duck, "How dare you, a slave, resist, come on!
Kill him for me!"
There was no need for the fat man to speak. When the guard on the side saw this, he immediately dismounted, drew his knife and came towards Lin Gang!
When Yang Ru saw this, her face turned pale with fright, and she couldn't help hiding behind the man, but Xiao Liu didn't. Like Lin Gang, he frowned at the guard!
The guard came to Lin Gang with a look of disdain, raised his knife and slashed Lin Gang's neck horizontally - he had killed many slaves, this was the easiest way.
However, when Lin Gang saw the knife coming, he subconsciously ducked back and actually dodged it!
The guard was stunned for a moment, then became angry and slashed at Lin Gang crazily again!
At this moment, Lin Gang had nowhere to hide. At the moment of life and death, he didn't know where he got the courage, and suddenly there was a trace of fierceness in his eyes. He gritted his teeth, and his strong body instantly jumped forward, hugging the guard.
He knocked him down with a handful of his waist!
Then, Lin Gang grabbed the knife from the guard's hand and stabbed the guard in the chest who was struggling underneath him!
The people around were stunned, looking at the blood on the ground and screaming!
"Killing people!!"
