This year, the wind in Guanzhong seems to be a little drier than usual, blowing on the face and feeling like sand, which makes the already hot heat become like hell, the pond is a little shallower, the lotus leaves are a little softer, and the frogs on the leaves are not even very interested in predation, allowing the dragonflies to come and go and make a splash.

It was the second year of Zhenguan, and there was a great drought in Guanzhong, and being alive was already the only luxury of the people.

But this simple wish has really become a luxury for many people, and the price of food in Guanzhong is now rising every day, and even in the less affected areas, people have to do their best to have a mouthful of life-saving food to fill their stomachs.

And those who were severely affected or even had no harvest could only helplessly embark on the road of eating, and there were not a few people who sold their children and daughters along the way, and the eleven or twelve-year-old girls who were waiting to be released were only worth a dozen large cakes.

A small town seventy miles away from Chang'an, there is a small courtyard with black walls, black doors and black tiles in the northeast corner of the town.

There are no people everywhere here, it is relatively quiet, there are ponds in the yard, there are weeping willows, there are birdsong and peony flowers, the people in the yard live quietly, all of them have a plump complexion, and the dress is also decent, in this year of the catastrophe, I am afraid that there are really many people to envy.

The two girls who looked to be thirteen or fourteen years old kept adding some messy things to a huge water tank, including snakes, insects, rats, ants, and even feces, urine, and filth, so that the precious two tanks of water were completely wasted, but they were losers.

"Did you hear that the newly bought child, who had just eaten enough, learned that he was going to be sold as a turtle slave, and he refused to agree to live or die, and was beaten to death."

"I heard that the sixth master personally took his own hands, that kid was quite strong, and he almost died without saying a word, and he almost choked his breath, but he didn't die, he woke up, and now Fluttershy is taking care of it."

"Didn't die? My good girl, who was in a coma for two days and one night, can still come back to life on his own? This kid is really fateful, what's there to make trouble, no matter what, it's better than no life, these years, where can I find a place where the big cake is enough? ”

"This is different, I heard that he is a literate person, and the sixth master and his mother also bought him for this."

As the two women spoke, they naturally climbed onto the big water tank, and sat down steadily, while a fat lady who was not far away looked at this scene and couldn't help but nod with satisfaction.

Ordinary people can't recognize what this is doing, but people who know it can see at a glance that this is a stunt of joy, called sitting in a big tank, once the legs are weak, they will fall into the tank immediately, women need to practice from a young age, after persisting for three years and five years, the buttocks will become big and round, the legs are strong and powerful, and most of the 36 tricks of the Qinglou need this basic skill.

It turns out that this yard is actually a place for 'raising horses'!

The so-called raising of horses, of course, is not the kind of horse that is raised on the battlefield, although they can all be ridden, but it is the famous feudal dross: thin horses. The emphasis is on white skin, petite, and big buttocks, which are also the three hard indicators to evaluate the quality of thin horses.

In a grass room not far from the two sisters who sat in the vat, a young man lay sickly on the bed, and beside him sat a beautiful girl who looked rather handsome and dressed quite seductively, but the young man's eyes were staring straight at the ceiling, and he was deaf to all kinds of high-pitched and painful moans and wails coming from outside.

Father.... Crossed?

His name is Qin Hao, and he was originally a socialist successor in the 21st century, working in a rather enviable unit: the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television.

There is a car and a house, a wife and a son, although he is not a winner in life, but his life is quite happy, that day the unit called on everyone to learn from Lei Feng to do good deeds, and the kung fu of helping the old lady to cross the road was inexplicably hit and killed by a drunk driver's 2500, and as a result, he opened his eyes and ran to the Tang Dynasty.

A phone call shook three or five little stars, and the happy life of drinking and bragging was gone.

Fortunately, it is time to live again, as a small leader of the cultural department, Qin Hao, of course, knows what it means to cross over, and has reviewed a lot of such unreliable time travel novels from his hands, and two days ago I was wondering with my colleagues whether to ban all these historical nihilistic works, why is it my turn? Could it be retribution?

may really be retribution, because with his years of experience in reading books, he found that the traverser usually wears a predecessor such as a showman, how did he actually fall into the hands of human traffickers?

This is a large human trafficking group, and it is difficult to feed babies in feudal society, so the thirteen or fourteen-year-old half-age age like his predecessor is even more sought-after.

Girls are trained into thin horses, and they can be sold to Qinglou at a high price, and boys also have their uses, and those who are not well trained can be sold to be coolies, and those who are trained can become tools and teaching materials for them to train thin horses.

Anyway, in the year of the catastrophe, human life is cheaper than grass, and it doesn't cost a few copper plates, even if you encounter a disobedient person who kills you to relieve your anger.

Coincidentally, the predecessor belonged to the kind that was beaten to death to relieve anger.

In fact, the predecessor is very simple, a family fleeing the famine, looking to starve to death, met a trafficker and sold himself, it turned out that this was a 'horse breeding' yard, the predecessor quit on the spot, because he was a scholar, as the so-called soldier can not be killed, so he was beaten by the traffickers, it is estimated that the head was hit, and he was directly killed, and he was occupied by the soul dove from a thousand years later.

What to do? Does Lao Tzu have to accept this fact and seize the time to kneel and lick?

Of course not, if he sells it to a beautiful girl as a child husband or something, he may still be able to consider it, the horse house is still forgotten, no matter how obedient he is, at most it is the life of a Qinglou turtle father, if he is unlucky, I am afraid that he will throw himself into a small black mine as a coolie in the blink of an eye.

With his unruly personality and the bad impression left by his predecessor, the latter seems to be very likely.

What's more, the Tang Dynasty, especially the early Tang Dynasty, was extremely strict in the management of household registration and road guidance, once it was a slave, and it was a cheap life for life, like the kind of time in the novel that you can be a small guy and have infinite scenery, and finally patting the emperor on the shoulder or even simply replacing it is impossible to happen, if you just admit it, it is better to die now.

Just thinking about things, the beautiful girl on the side spoke, and said: "Little brother, this is the soup cake made by Sister Xiaocui, it's delicious, you are so badly injured, you must be very hungry, you just eat it, if you don't eat it, you will die." ”

Turning around, the beautiful girl looked at herself worriedly, holding a tattered ceramic bowl in her hand, looking pitiful, her eyes were crooked like crescents, and her smile had a faint seductive taste.

Such a smile is almost impossible for a peasant girl, and I can't imagine that this little girl has just been trained for about a month, and she has already achieved initial results.

"Thank you, but I'm in a terrible pain all over my body right now, and I can't do it, can I trouble you to feed me."

"You agree to eat? Great, I'll feed you. ”

As she spoke, the girl carefully pounded the soup cake into a crushed dough, blew it again, held Qin Hao's head in the crook of her arm, and carefully fed it to Qin Hao's mouth one bite at a time.

This position is very comfortable, and it seems that a slight movement can touch a little softness on the girl's chest.

Her name is Fluttershy, and she is also a girl who has just been sold in for a few days, but she is a very good-hearted woman, just because she smiled at the little girl when she first met, and she has been taking care of herself after being seriously injured.

Perhaps, in such a strange and terrifying place, that sunny smile is already the only warmth in her life.
