From the first day that Yin Xuetong entered the prisoner-of-war camp, people around her kept telling her that there was no hope of escaping from the prisoner-of-war camp in this life, because the most basic requirement for wealthy families to buy people was to be in good health, and she...
Yin Xuetong stroked her limp right arm with her left hand. This hand had been broken for more than half a year, and the internal tendons and veins were necrotic. Even the best doctor in Qinghe City couldn't see clearly. She couldn't understand why she, a disabled person, could among the chosen.
She raised her head and saw clearly the woman standing in the crowd who had never said a word. That was her future master. What were her criteria for selecting people
In the third round, Qu Qingning took "Da Han Tong Zi" and began to test the knowledge of the remaining people more deeply. Some answered fluently, some stammered, and some looked pale and couldn't answer at all.
Soon it was Yin Xuetong's turn. When she saw the indifferent person in front of her pointing at the first word on the first line of the first page of "Da Han Tong Zi", her eyes widened slightly. Just now she clearly saw this person turning to the middle. When it comes to testing other people, why does it become the easiest first page for her
The first word is human.
Yin Xuetong became more and more confused, but she knew the opportunity was too good to miss and immediately replied nervously: "People are just like you and me, they are all living beings in the world."
Qu Qingning wanted to laugh and cry, but in the end he did not show any expression and turned the "Da Han Tong Zi" to the middle to test the next person.
Soon, the remaining thirty people were divided into three teams. The first team could not answer the question, the second team had half of the answers correct, and the third team had completely complete answers.
Qu Qingning returned to Su Li. Su Li glanced at Yin Xuetong in the crowd who had broken his right arm and looked confused and a little excited. A faint light flashed across his eyes. At this time, Fang Yuan also walked over, his lips moving but no sound came out.
The sound is condensed into a line, and the sound is transmitted into the secret!
When Yan Ziye saw this scene, his pupils shrank instantly. Transmitting sounds into secrets is a secret technique that can only be mastered by masters of the eighth level. The origins of these three people are indeed terrifying!
When he thought that he was only at the fourth level, he couldn't help but feel discouraged.
It turns out that compared to people in the martial arts world, I am not as good as a servant.
Hearing what Fang Yuan said, Su Li nodded slightly, and her eyes inadvertently glanced at a skinny young man in the team. Then she took over the number plates of more than thirty people and began to select people herself.
The boss of Yaxing stood bent over Su Li and immediately shouted smartly: "Whoever I read the name of below, please come forward immediately!"
Su Li glanced at the dental shop owner, selected six numbers and handed them to him.
"Zhang Heniu!"
"Li Sandan!"
"Wu Yajun!"
“…”
When his name was called, he immediately looked happy and stood up. They were all in the team that didn't answer at all. They didn't expect to be selected, and they were extremely surprised.
After reading the sixth name, the owner of Yahang stopped. It seems to be over.
Yin Xuetong's face turned pale, and she was still not there.
"Mr. Li?"
The owner of the dental shop asked with some doubts about the number plate. The people she called out were not very good, so how could she choose these people to buy it
Su Li smiled slightly, and a strange voice sounded for the first time in front of a group of prisoners of war, "Except these six, I want the rest. Boss of the tooth shop, please calculate the price."
ah? !
The owner of the tooth shop looked at the remaining twenty-seven people and was dumbfounded. He actually bought almost all of them? ! Including the six brought here, there are a total of thirty-three people!
Big business!
The owner of the dental shop was overjoyed. He suddenly thought of the origins of the three people. He couldn't help but feel bitter in his mouth. He said honestly: "Mr. Li, the six boys from the dental shop are not worth anything. I can make the decision to give them to you, but the prisoners of war For the men of the camp, you have to pay a sum of money as military pay, one hundred taels per person, twenty-seven people, that is 2,700 taels of silver."
Su Li nodded slightly and signaled Qu Qingning, who immediately took out twenty-seven silver notes with a denomination of one hundred and handed them to the officer.
Seeing that Su Li was so happy, the owner of Yahang immediately beamed with joy. He helped the military camp get so much military pay. His benefits were far greater than those of the six slave boys sent out.
The officer was also happy when he got the warm banknote. Two large carriages were arranged for Su Li to transport people back.
Before leaving, Su Li looked at Yan Ziye, who looked slightly troubled, and said slowly: "If the young master can't make up his mind, it's better to let them choose their own future."
Yan Ziye was slightly stunned when he heard this, and was about to ask Su Li what he meant, but saw that she had already walked away with the carriage.
After coming back to his senses, Yan Ziye looked at the group of girls around him with pleading eyes, and couldn't help but lament in his heart, he was so impulsive.
As soon as they left the prisoner-of-war camp, the group of boys and girls sitting in the carriage immediately became excited. They looked out with pairs of eyes, greedily breathing the air outside.
Seeing Qu Qingning sitting on the edge of the car door and taking a nap, the kid sitting in the back immediately started to think about running away. But as soon as he turned around, before he had time to climb out of the window, suddenly there was a flash of sword light, and the tip of the knife came out. It was already pressed against his neck, and if he moved forward an inch further, he would see blood.
The cold feeling from the blade immediately gave him goosebumps, and his whole body became stiff and unable to move.
Qu Qingning snorted coldly and took back the long knife. He said calmly: "If someone dares to escape again, I will not hold back. The master originally only wanted to buy twenty people, but now there are thirteen more. It doesn't matter if one or two die."
As soon as these words came out, the people sitting in the carriage immediately calmed down. They had just left that hellish place, and no one wanted to die on the road.
Seeing that everyone was calm, Qu Qingning sat down again, but his heart was so angry that his teeth ached. Su Li's guy definitely didn't let him stay in Xuetong's carriage on purpose.
Thinking of this, he glanced at the thin young man sitting in the middle of the crowd who seemed to have difficulty even raising his head, and couldn't help but feel strange.
He seems to have seen this face somewhere, but he can't remember it... Who is Fang Yuan
At this moment, the same escape incident occurred in the previous carriage. Fang Yuan took off one of the escapee's arms without saying a word, and the entire carriage suddenly became quieter than a prisoner of war camp.
Yin Xuetong huddled in the innermost part of the carriage with a pale face. She felt bad in her heart. The person who bought them turned out to be from the martial arts world. She had often heard people say in her family that some evil families used people for experiments with incomparable methods. cruel.
Couldn't she just be bought by a family like that? Otherwise, why would she want one with a broken hand
When she thought of this, Yin Xuetong's face became even paler, and there was no trace of blood in her face anymore. She had just left the wolf pack and entered the tiger's mouth again
Just when Yin Xuetong was thinking about suicide, the carriage finally stopped.
"Everyone, get off the car one by one, no making any noise!"
Hearing Fang Yuan's voice, the two carriages were silent for a moment. The first one to get off was the scrawny young man. He climbed out of the carriage with difficulty and his expression changed instantly when he saw the gorgeous building in front of him.
Having made a start, the remaining thirty-two slaves got off the carriage one after another. When they saw the luxurious and exquisite three-story building, they were all shocked. Will they live here in the future? !
Su Li and the others walked into the restaurant without stopping. Not long after, Hei Dan and others walked out.
They were originally beggars, and were successively trained by Qu Qingning and Ling Li. Now they have long since lost their low self-esteem as beggars, and all of them are calm and composed, with the demeanor of disciples of a great sect.
They all wore Liliju uniforms designed by Su Li himself, and they were divided into two types. One kind is worn by ordinary working maids, which is light blue and pink. The other is the black and gold steward uniform worn by Hei Dan and others, with the word "lily" embroidered in gold thread on the right chest. It is simple and elegant, and has its own momentum!
Many prisoners of war who had never seen the world couldn't help but exclaim in exclamation, but Yin Xuetong and the thin young man's eyes flashed slightly at the same time. They both saw that these young men were all capable of cultivation.
Heidan had never been as prosperous as he was today, and he felt very happy. However, he knew that he had even been in contact with the Young Supreme, so naturally he would not get stage fright because of such a small scene, and then he said loudly:
"Where you are today is Linliju! Those who pass the test and training will become the associates of Linliju in the future. All come with me."
Heidan led a group of people past Linliju and came to the open space behind Linliju, where there were also piles of bluestone bricks and wood.
Heidan coughed lightly, pointed at the stone bricks and wood and said: "This is your first test. Whoever can build his own residence will pass the test and stay. During this period, Linli Residence will provide you with food." , so that you don’t starve to death. As for everything else, it’s all up to you. There are people guarding this place. If you want to escape, don’t blame me for being ruthless!”
Hei Dan's words were not nice to say, but the eyes of everyone present gradually brightened, and something called "hope" emerged. They had been marked as prisoners of war, and they would be killed immediately if they escaped. They had even thought about the future. How miserable it would be, but I never imagined that I would be bought just to be a waiter, with food and shelter, and my freedom would not be restricted in the future. Such good things cannot be found even with a lantern.
Without any hesitation, everyone immediately picked up stone bricks and wood and began to build the houses they would live in later. There was an indescribable light in the eyes of the thin young man. He grabbed a stone and was about to lift it, but after trying hard for a long time, the stone did not move, causing others to burst into laughter. But the thin boy seemed not to hear and continued to fight with the rocks.
Yin Xuetong gritted her teeth and pushed the stones with one hand, but her right hand was drooped and she couldn't pile the stones. How could she build a house like this
Many people's eyes fell on the two people. Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and there are comparisons. The skinny boy and Yin Xuetong seemed to be the two worst people among the thirty-three people. If nothing else happened, these two people would soon be kicked out of Lili Residence and become beggars on the street, or return to a place where life and death were worse than death. In a prisoner of war camp.
Sure enough, not long after, Hei Dan reappeared, pointed at the thin boy and Yin Xuetong, and shouted: "Both of you, come here!"
The thin boy was sweating profusely, breathing heavily like a tuberculosis ghost, as if he was going to die in the next second. Hearing Heidan's cry, he slowly walked over with his steps, a hint of anxiety finally appeared in his silent eyes, and a feeble voice reached Heidan's ears:
"It's still early before the agreed date, I can build a house..."
After finally seeing a chance to survive, he didn't want to give up!
Yin Xuetong also looked pale, holding her right arm, her beautiful eyes full of begging.
Hei Dan had a weird look on his face, but he still didn't say anything. He waved and said, "Follow me."
The thin boy's breath was stagnant, and in the end he didn't say any more words of begging, and silently followed Heidan. Yin Xuetong sighed and followed behind holding on to her right arm.
