Chapter 52: Another Mask
"Does that mean that we bought that slave, and from now on, that slave is our private property?"
In fact, the answer is already very clear, but An Xiaomo still wants to struggle again, it is still difficult for her to accept the existence of slaves, in the world before her, everyone is equal, there is no slave trade, and there is no way to accept the existence of slaves in her current thinking.
"Well, that's pretty much it, unless you don't want this slave and you can let him go, nominally, this slave is still your private property."
Gu Yuanfu nodded, but what he was puzzled about was that Xiao Mo didn't seem to be able to accept this matter.
"We ...... Let's wait for the time being, and then take this road when there is really no one left. ”
Although she knows very well in her heart that since she has come to this world, she must abide by the rules of this world.
However, a person's thoughts, like habits, are difficult to change, and she cannot adapt to this idea for the time being, and even if she really adapts to it in the future, it is impossible to agree with this point of view.
In the end, everyone agreed with An Xiaomo's proposal, and observed it for a while, after all, they ordinary people, if they want to buy slaves, they will be gossiped about, this is like a default rule, slaves, only nobles and wealthy businessmen can buy, and this country has very strict requirements for the number of slaves to buy.
Buying slaves is a dangerous thing.
In this way, after a few days, the business of the two Jishitang was getting better and better, and they were getting busier and busier, but from the beginning to the end, no one came to apply. An Xiaomo was unspeakably irritable in his heart.
Today, I was really not in the mood to see a doctor, so I ran to a high mountain, sometimes, standing on the mountain, looking at the scenery, breathing the air of nature, is also a good way to soothe the mood.
Of course, An Fen is indispensable behind him, An Fen came with a dead face, An Xiaomo couldn't resist his request, so he reluctantly let her follow.
Because she went up to the mountains to pick herbs almost every day when she was in the village, it was not a difficult thing for her to be afraid of the mountains now.
It's just that the mountain doesn't seem to be very calm today, and the higher you go, the more obvious this feeling becomes.
There was even a faint smell of blood in the air.
"Anfen, you pay attention, if something happens later, you must protect me."
At this time, she had to sigh, it was good to let An Fen come out with her, there was a thug bodyguard by her side, and she didn't have to be afraid of anything.
"Don't worry, daughter-in-law, I will protect you well, even if I sacrifice my life, I will definitely protect you."
An Fen recently learned some strange sensual words from somewhere, which made An Xiaomo, a person with some rectum, uncomfortable to listen to, but knowing his intentions, he forgave him and didn't reprimand him.
"Uh-huh, look at your performance."
In fact, there is no need to remind An Fen at all, because every time he encounters danger, he will automatically block in front of him and solve all dangers for her.
Thinking of this, An Xiaomo's heart was warm, and her mood slowly calmed down, and if she was divided, there seemed to be some kind of magical magic that could soothe people's hearts, at least it had soothed her mood.
It turns out that An Xiaomo's previous feeling was not wrong.
Not long ago, there was a fight on this mountain, and the reason why An Xiaomo knew about it was because she saw several black corpses on the top of the mountain, and next to the cliff, there was a person with a lot of blood on his body.
The man looked very tired, and the blood stains on his blue clothes had long since been indistinguishable whether it was his or the people lying on the ground.
"Daughter-in-law, this person is very dangerous, you stay away."
An Fen stood in front of An Xiaomo and looked at the man sitting on the edge of the cliff with a wary expression.
His intuition told him that this person was different from the people he had fought before, and that this person was very strong in martial arts.
"You were also sent by the man to hunt me down?"
The emotions in the man's eyes were complicated, which made An Xiaomo stunned for a while.
This is not a look that has just killed someone, this ...... Utter despair, lifeless eyes.
"I'm just here to enjoy the scenery, what you want to do has nothing to do with me, everything that happened before here has nothing to do with me."
An Xiaomo said casually, slowly walked to the edge of the cliff, stretched out his hands, closed his eyes, and felt the wind.
More is better than less, and she will pretend that she has not seen anything.
Even if she saw it, what could she do, and it wouldn't do her any good. Seeing this, the man did not speak again, and lowered his head.
Three people, quiet and quiet, the cold wind blowing, with a strong smell of blood that makes people want to be sick.
Since coming into this world, I have rarely had the opportunity to see the scenery so quietly.
Just when An Xiaomo sighed that the world was so quiet, suddenly, she noticed a trace of movement, from that man's movement.
Slowly opened his eyes, only to see that the man had already stood up from the ground, patted the dust on his body, looked down at the high cliff without squinting, and suddenly had a tragic temperament on his body.
"What are you trying to do?"
An Xiaomo couldn't help but speak, she was afraid that it would be too late if she didn't speak.
"I don't like people jumping off a cliff in front of me."
It would be a pity that a person is so good-looking and upright, if he dies like this, An Xiaomo at that time only had these feelings.
"In this world, there is nothing worth nostalgic about, something worth caring about, rather than the walking dead staying, it is better to leave as soon as possible, if Miss can't bear it, please avoid it."
The man's voice was indescribably hoarse, as if he had a piece of rusty iron in his throat. The tone was indescribably sad, and An Xiaomo couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable inexplicably when he heard it.
What kind of desperate situation does a person have to be so desolate?
As soon as the man's voice fell, he opened his arms, An Xiaomo's face changed greatly, this is the rhythm of jumping off the cliff.
"Anfen, stop him!"
As soon as the words fell, a black shadow flashed around him, and in the next second, the man who jumped off the cliff had been pressed to the ground by An Fen.
"Daughter-in-law, I suppressed people!"
An Fen half-knelt on the ground, pressed the man backhand with both hands, and looked up at An Xiaomo.
"What do you mean, girl? Is it life or death is the meaning of the next, why did the girl stop me? ”
The man's voice was still flat, desperate, and desolate, as if it were a soulless corpse.
"Since you don't want this life, why don't you give me your life, it just so happens that I don't have enough manpower now, I have food and shelter here, what do you think?"
An Xiaomo crossed his arms, his tone was relaxed, but he pinched a cold sweat in his heart, fortunately he brought An Fen over today, otherwise, this person would have become rotten meat at the foot of the mountain now.
The man obviously didn't expect him to say such a sentence, his face was stunned, and he didn't know whether to cry or laugh. It turns out that there is such a girl in this world, and he has traveled to most of the continents, and he doesn't even know about this kind of thing.
"Girl, it's not that I don't want to help you, it's just that my identity is very dangerous now, and it will affect you, girl."
He is now wanted nationally, and if he is with her and is discovered, she will not end much better.
"You don't have to worry about this, whether it affects me or not, it's not a question you should consider, you just need to answer whether you agree or not."
Is there a bunch of people who just died? How could she not have thought of the danger of his identity.
Although she is a master who is afraid of trouble, she doesn't know why, the temperament he exudes makes her want to help him, such a person with a temperament like Lan is definitely not a person who will take the initiative to cause trouble.
The world is very complicated, and he has become the way he is now, and nine times out of ten he is forced to do so.
"Girl, you're too young to understand how complicated the world is. You don't think it's okay now, and when the trouble comes to you, you'll definitely regret it. ”
He has a good impression of the little girl in front of him, so he will say this, although the man who is pressing him now is very powerful, but with their strength, it is far from enough to fight against them, and against them is equivalent to fighting against the whole country.
"Since you already want to kill yourself, what are you thinking about doing this kind of thing, don't look down on young people, you just need to nod or shake your head."
An Xiaomo's words were there.
Say she's young? He couldn't tell how much older he was than her. She should be about the same age as him in the previous world, right?
The man was stunned, he didn't expect that the temperament exuded by a little girl was even stronger than that of a big man, her clear and unwavering eyes made people want to believe it inexplicably, which made him have to make a comparison in his heart, she is really different from those noble women, completely different, there is no squeamishness of noble women, but there is more heroism.
The two looked at each other like this for a long time, and An Fen on the side was already angry, so he raised a faint smile.
nodded and said, "Then my life will be handed over to the girl." ”
On the way back, An Xiaomo learned the man's name, Mu Chen, and also knew his age, twenty years old, as for the rest, he didn't know at all.
He kept silent about his past, and he didn't even say who he killed on the mountain.
It was only a small request to her, to buy him a mask that was the same as that of Anfen, because if he showed people his true face, they would soon be implicated.
An Xiaomo readily agreed, firstly because his request was really too simple, and secondly, because she was also very aware of the seriousness of this matter, An Fen was originally because she felt that it would be dangerous for him to show his true face, so she persuaded him to wear a mask, until now, An Fen is also wearing a mask, only she and You know what he really looks like, An Meimei...... I guess I've almost forgotten it.
