Half a month later, although the war between the two countries had subsided, the trade between the border cities could not be restored for a while, and the situation of the people temporarily detained in the two cities was also precarious.

Fortunately, no matter how much fighting there was in previous years, neither side would massacre the merchants for the sake of war, because it would easily cut off the livelihood of the people on both sides who relied on this idea to make a living.

As a king, no matter how much he holds a grudge against the enemy, he will not anger his people for something that is not conducive to war.

Unless... Tyrants, or ninjas.

"This is not the same, how can the business affairs of the Great Wilderness be prosperous in our Zhao Kingdom, the business trips that went to this time have been seized a lot, and ten inns can't be stuffed, but the Great Wilderness is in our northern city, and there is only one group of people, and one inn is not satisfied, and most of them are barbarian slaves, it is really ruthless, the king killed all the people of our Zhao Kingdom, but we Zhao Kingdom shot to kill those people, how much can we relieve our hatred? Yes, the great wilderness is really hateful! ”

"Even now, I don't see the other party release people."

The people of Beicheng resented and hated, and a group of people in the Great Wilderness who were still trapped in a B&B inn were also worried, and the Great Wilderness merchant Ping Yu was very uneasy these days, and he beat and scolded his dozen barbarian slaves at every turn, and the innkeeper was disgusted, but he didn't show it when he saw that the other party gave him a lot of money, but he was just a little harsh on the meal.

The barbarian slaves lived in such a closed and difficult environment, and a few people died because of the aggravation of their injuries and lack of treatment, and the daily atmosphere became more and more like purgatory, and the guests of other Zhao Kingdom were a little evasive, leaving without regard to the expiration of the stay period, and would rather waste money to book other inns, so that the inn became more and more depressed.

But there has been a change in the past few days, because there is a group of people living in, it seems to be a business trip, I just arrived, I don't know the details, I gave a month's deposit in advance, and the room was fully booked.

Because of the gold and silver in the account, the innkeeper was in a much better mood, and the food treatment was also better, but the treatment of these barbarian slaves was not good.

After dealing with the news from the capital, he was about to sort out the affairs of the border trade in Beicheng, when he heard the noise coming from the courtyard outside, got up and walked to the corridor to look down, and saw a barbarian slave fighting with a group of guards brought by merchants from the Great Wilderness.

These guards all have some martial arts background, and they use knives, and they are very fierce, but the barbarian slave actually knocked them all down with his bare hands, but... Ping Yu was annoyed, and gave an order, so that the other barbarian slaves who were hiding in fear also stepped forward to attack.

The barbarians hesitated, but finally pounced on the flat owl's orders.

Under the attack, the barbarian slave was defeated and knocked to the ground, and the clothes on his body were shredded by the blade, revealing his upper body full of hideous wounds.

Old wounds add new wounds, flesh and blood.

Ming Jin looked at it and asked Takuzawa what was going on.

"The merchant saw that a barbarian slave was in trouble with his hands and feet, and wanted to hang him up and whip him, and the other barbarian slave was afraid that he would be friendly with him, so he could not help but break the slave covenant, and actually fought back. That's it. ”

Tuoze didn't look very comfortable either, mainly because of one thing.

"Is the rescued barbarian slave among them?" Ming Jin glanced at the group of people who beat the barbarian men on the ground.

"Yes." Tuoze pursed his lips and said, "The barbarians of the Great Wilderness have been completely enslaved, and I am afraid that they will be like this in this life. ”

Ming Jin glanced at the barbarian man, listened to the flat owl shouting and scolding, and knew his name.

Severage.

She laughed suddenly.

The plan was thought about for many years, but finally found a suitable person.

At night, the dying slave found himself dug up from the mass grave and thrown on a cart.

The gears of the cart creaked and turned, and he vaguely saw the bleak night and the muddy deserted road.

He remembered that this was not the hometown he dreamed of returning to.

He's not dead yet.

He was sent to a small mountain village, and after being drugged and bandaged, the heat in his body faded and he almost saved his life, and in the early hours of the morning, he finally saw a man.

A woman who stepped on the morning dew and carried a radish given by an old farmer in the countryside into the door.

She sat down and got straight to the point.

"Two ways, one, I will give you an identity post, since then you have changed your name and surname to be a Zhaoguo person, farming, with your natural brute strength, it is not difficult to live this life in peace. Two, you go back to the Great Wilderness and do what I want you to do, but from now on, you will get what you want, food, money, power, and of course, freedom. ”

Xie Nu looked at her, his eyes were deep, but with a sense of wildness, he actually said Zhaoguo's words, "I died as a slave, and I don't want to live for a woman's slave again, you can kill me." ”

Takuzawa frowned and buckled his sword.

But Ming Jin didn't move, just smiled, "I actually know my Chinese, no wonder I shouted when I was beaten, just to get my attention?" ”

Tuoze was surprised and looked at the slave, but the latter said: "You guys seem to be business travelers, but all of them are superb in martial arts, and they are very big, if I want to save my life, I need to make a big noise, maybe Pingyu will stop if he is jealous, maybe you will be angry, and you will kill Pingyu, no matter what, it's worth the risk, but I didn't expect it...."

"It's very smart, but you don't want to show it, which means that you don't dare to show your slave status, and you also know that Pingyu is a vicious person, who seems to be doing business in my Zhaoguo, but in fact he is a secret agent in the Great Wilderness, and he hates my Zhaoguo people the most, in order to save his life, you are very sensible. However, are you so unwilling to be a woman's subordinate? ”

Ming Jin heard what he meant, in order to save his life, this person can bow his head and be a servant, but he is not willing to be a servant of a woman.

The severant did not speak.

If it weren't for the fact that this slave was malleable, which was conducive to Ming's plan, Tuoze would have killed this person.

"I heard that the barbarians were the overlords of the grasslands outside the Saiwai, and the barbarian king had tried his best to pull out a thousand jun and dominate the world, but he was defeated by a woman's demagoguery, and was finally defeated by the Great Zhou, the barbarian king hated and died in battle, and the rest of the tribes retreated and left, entered the territory of the Great Wilderness, and turned to the Great Wilderness, and the Great Wilderness got the property you contributed, and marched three hundred miles to stop the pursuit of the Great Zhou army, but the barbarians still had time to be happy, and saw that the Great Wilderness destroyed the promise, annexed your barbarians, and all branded as slaves, and also created the barbarian slave unpaid law for this purpose, for hundreds of generations, The barbarians are still the most despicable slaves of the great wilderness, doing the hardest work, but they are enslaved by the Lord all their lives, and they are undignified and paid, which is the humiliation of your barbarians and cattle. ”

Ming Jin said indifferently, but the slave clenched his palm, and the wounds on his body gradually forced out blood.

"I don't mean to humiliate you, and I don't want to enslave you, it's just that I'm in a dilemma, and I need to do something to solve the crisis, maybe it's too late, but in life, there are some things, if you don't do it, the dilemma will never change."

"Just like you barbarians."

"Do you want to be called a slave for the rest of your life, or be called a slave, and you have to make your own choice, don't you?"

Many years later, when Xie remembered this day, that woman didn't know whether she regretted it or was glad that she had made the choice.
