Chapter 7: The Mark of the Slave
In the continent of Qilun, the rich areas of any city will always be much more luxurious and luxurious than the residences of the poor.
Even a deserted city like Deadwood City is no exception, in fact, the decoration of the rich area here is also very luxurious, and at this time, a poorly dressed girl looks out of place in such a house.
"Uncle Kuler said that as long as I promise to go to a place with him, he will give Brother Yoxiu ten gold coins!"
"Ten gold coins, we can eat bacon and buy a few new clothes......"
"As long as I endure it, everything will be better!"
The girl muttered, but remembering the way Cooler looked at him today, she was a little hairy.
She didn't understand what it was, but it was the same way she remembered a drunk named Darren looking at her and the dog she had dated.
As a result, the next day, the puppy disappeared and never came back, and that day Daeron's face was a little more rosy than before.
That kind of look is almost the same as Kuller's, she has always had a bad premonition in her heart, she wants to go out for a walk, but she finds that the door is locked from the outside!
"Big Brother Joh, ......"
Rei gritted her teeth, her heart even more apprehensive, the night was eerily silent, and she remembered the recent bad news of heretics.
Do you ......
Thinking of this, Lei Yi couldn't help but burst into tears, just at this time the door was broken, and a black shadow appeared in front of her, dressed in black, with daggers tied around her waists, and a faint smell of blood came.
Especially since the man was wearing a black mask, and in this way, Rey immediately thought of those infidels.
Finished......
Sure enough, after the man came in, he took out a dagger and walked slowly towards him, was this to kill himself?
Rei thought, and at this point he remembered what Josius had often said on her lips:
"If you can't beat it, you have to bite off a piece of meat!"
A scream rang out from Rei's mouth, and she knew it might anger the other party, but it was only a matter of time.
And she believed that with such strict patrols now, there should be a good chance of alarming those city guards, especially at a time when they were more vigilant like night!
Lei Yi closed her eyes and waited for the revenge of the man in black, but she didn't expect the other party to just say "damn" and leave, a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes, but it didn't matter, after the lucky escape, Lei Yi felt like she was out of strength, and her heart was still pounding.
Goddess Ireli bless, maybe today is her lucky day.
The city guards came quickly, and seemed to cause some shock, because Rey had been called in for detailed questioning, and if it weren't for the fact that the other party saw that she was a weak girl and a victim, they would not have let her go so quickly.
Fifteen-year-old Lei Yi is slim, and her petite body does not hide much of her appearance, but is even more pitiful.
She and Joxiu's residence is a remote corner even in the slums, and on the way back, there are a lot of ** eyes, and Lei Yi is terrified.
But she knew that it would be easier to be coveted if she was timid, so she did her best to raise her chest, which was what Joshua had always taught her.
Of course, there are also people who have doubts, because Kuler's idea of Lei Yi is also quite popular in the slums, they didn't expect Lei to come back so soon, and Kuller, a rich man, is also a reason why they don't dare to attack Lei Yi now.
I believe that if the news from the rich area comes, it is also a question whether Lei Yi can get home safely on the road, after all, Lei Yi's appearance is very outstanding even among the nobles, and many people have looked at her with strange eyes since she was ten years old, and now she is even more chiguoguo.
If it weren't for Joxiu's desperate maintenance, Lei Yi would have been sold to the point where she would have been ruined by a lowly man in Smoke Willow Alley, or become a forbidden (harmonious) belly of a rich man.
The cost of this maintenance is very heavy, and Joshu has struggled on the brink of life and death more than once, and this time if it weren't for the crossing incident, it is estimated that he would have been planted in Kuller's conspiracy.
Thinking of this, Lei Yi was very anxious, she finally saw Kuler's face clearly, and couldn't help but worry about Joshua's safety, until Joxiu dragged the tired figure back, Lei Yi finally couldn't help but throw herself into his arms and cry.
Joxiu rubbed her head and asked, "I know it all, isn't it okay, what a crybaby." ”
Lei Yi stuck out her tongue and snorted angrily, "Brother Yoxiu will bully me!" ”
"By the way, how much money do you have on you now, Rey?" Joxiu hesitated for a moment and spoke.
Speaking of money, Lei Yi suddenly smiled, "Don't be frightened when you hear it, I have a gold coin on me now!" ”
"A gold coin!?" Yoxiu opened his mouth slightly, but then reacted, this is probably a bargaining chip to bewitch Leiyi.
"Huh?" Seeing that Yoo Xiu was not much surprised, Lei Yi muttered in a low voice, "It's not fun", and reached out and took out the gold coin for Yo Xiu, generally speaking, the money in the family will basically be kept by Yo Xiu.
"This is!?" Because she wanted to take the money, Lei Yi twisted her neck slightly, and then Joxiu saw something that made people angry.
"Slave Mark!" Thinking of what Kuller said, he quickly connected things in a mess.
Kuhler presumably sold Rey to the July Chamber of Commerce, and the sigil was not a permanent slave marker, but a temporary locator.
This kind of mark is generally marked on the body of valuable goods, if it appears on a person, it means that the person will be treated as a commodity, so this spell mark is also known as the slave mark, which is the most hated thing by the bottom people.
Fortunately, the mark fades after a while, unlike the real slave mark that is permanently imprinted on the body.
Because he had worked part-time in the spell profession in his previous life and had rich experience in the game, he estimated that the time of this mark would exist for about three days.
This also means that within three days, the July Chamber of Commerce will send a transport force to take Rey away.
Thinking of this, Joxiu had a headache, it was a behemoth, although it was said that because of the catastrophe, the July Chamber of Commerce would suffer a very heavy blow, but now, it was still a force that made the entire continent fearful.
"Brother Yoxiu......" Lei Yi said weakly, and Yoxiu's face suddenly changed, and she knew that she should have done something wrong.
Yoxiu sighed, it's no wonder that Lei Yi is in this matter, he also knows Lei Yi's character after many years of dependence, no, if he hadn't crossed by himself, wouldn't the previous Joxiu also fall for Kuler?
The affairs of the two have always been the master's decision, if it weren't for the original covenant's approval, Lei Yi would not agree, and the blame can only be blamed on the previous owner of the body.
The one inside said that he didn't plan to tell Rey for the time being, because the city guards might still talk to her, and a girl like her didn't have much talent for acting, and it was easy to see the clues.
This is also the reason why Joshua did not take her directly from Kule's house, but caused her to alarm the city guards.
First, her disappearance may make people suspicious, and finally find out to them, but now it can greatly reduce their suspicion, and second, even if you don't interrogate, just ask a few words about Lei Yi's simple temperament will reveal her feet.
The next day, Joxiu took the gold coin given by Lei Yi and hurried out, and he found that time was a little short.
"If you come to a small place like Deadwood City to take away a slave girl, at most the branch will send a team, and it is estimated that there will be two or three second-order and seven or so first-order professionals......"
In his previous life, no matter how he rebelled against the sky, it was also a matter of growing up in the later stage, and now he is better than the average first-order professional, and he has to kneel when he encounters a second-order professional.
He had to be prepared with both hands, and now he had to get the coin rolling first, otherwise he wouldn't have enough money to buy off the Deadwood Chamber of Commerce and let the other party bring people in.
Even if there is a discount, it is difficult to spend less than ten gold coins, which is already a good deal, and if you change to other forces, you may not have this energy here, and you can't do it at any more cost.
Now, Josh is standing in front of a bustling casino in Deadwood City......
