Chapter 64: News, the secret movement of the Wuhun Palace
The slave market was made up of a hundred huge tents, which Steve said would soon increase to two hundred, because the two empires were at war, and slaves were a good source of soldiers. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Here, slaves have no human rights, and they are like objects that are left to be left at will, and they are subject to orders wherever they are placed.
Steve told me that it is the lifelong wish of slaves to meet a good master, because in this way they can still live as a human being, and if they meet a cruel master, they can only be sadly humiliated, beaten, tortured, and finally waiting for death.
As a modern person, I was extremely disgusted and even hated such behavior, and I was thinking about whether I should do something about it, such as lighting a fire in the hearts of slaves.
"Steve, what do you do with your slaves?" I asked.
Steve didn't expect me to ask this question out of the blue, and he couldn't help but hesitate.
"What, are you a cruel slave owner?" My voice instantly cooled.
"Oh no, how could I be a cruel person, dear boy of the sky, I'm not that kind of person!" Steve quickly explained.
"And what are you all about?" I asked.
"He's in a mood swing!" 007 suddenly said in my head.
"Could it be that he has some secrets?" I asked.
"That's how it should be. You ask him carefully. ”
"Okay."
"Let's wait until we're done!"
"Okay."
We got off the bus at the entrance of the slave market, the so-called main gate, which was nothing more than a few tattered wooden pillars with wooden planks on them, with four large characters written "Slave Market"
Our arrival immediately caught the attention of the traffickers, and in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, I asked 007 to put the car away.
"Oh! Oh my God, look who's coming, the Honourable Steve, the rich man of Notting City, is here. A lean-faced man with wet hair greeted him, full of compliments
"Mao Bi, you'd better get away from me, I brought a distinguished guest today, you'd better not mess around here, the guest's temper is not good, you can't afford to offend." Steve dealt with the lean man unceremoniously, without the slightest emotion.
However, the man in front of him didn't pay attention to Steve's insults, and slightly pulled his wet hair with his hand, trying to make himself look more energetic, but it was clear that this action made him look even more sloppy.
He was a very observant of words and feelings, and his gaze swept over us and fell on me.
"Hello this respected son, I am Mao Bi, a local know-it-all, I know a lot of local gossip, can I ask if there is anything I can do for you?"
"Oh? What news do you know? I thought this Mao Bi was very interesting, and I couldn't help but ask with a smile.
Mao Bi seemed to be in a hurry to behave, and hurriedly saw that no one was paying attention, so he lowered his voice and said: "In order to gain Childe's trust, there is a piece of news that I heard from a friend, but it is true, I told Childe, but Childe must keep it secret for me." ”
"What's the news? You name it, I'm sure I'll keep it a secret for you. I asked with a smile.
When Mao Bi heard this, he looked around again, and then whispered to make sure that no one was eavesdropping: "The matter is very related to the Martial Spirit Palace, a few days ago a mysterious person came to Notting City, I heard that he is two feet tall, hideous, and has a mysterious and powerful soul guide, as soon as he arrived in Notting City, he had a dispute with the son of the deacon of the outer gate, and broke his leg, killed several officials of the Martial Soul Palace, and injured their outer deacon, and threatened the Lord of the Bright Moon Palace, and no one in the Martial Soul Hall dared to touch him. ”
I opened my mouth in astonishment, this doesn't seem to be news, I did it, everyone knows about it.
"Mao Bi, you can't be any secret news, right?" Steve said, giving me one look.
Mao Bi was not surprised to see us, not strange at all, but whispered mysteriously: "The key thing is behind, this matter is a secret, but you need to assure me, you must not say that I said it." ”
Seeing Mao Bi's cautious appearance, I was also aroused by my curiosity, so I said, "If the news is useful, I will give you a hundred gold soul coins." ”
Mao Bi's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he couldn't help but look at me again, and said in a low voice to Xie Cai: "Here's the thing, after this happened, the Lord of the Bright Moon Hall left Notting City, returned to the headquarters of the Martial Spirit Hall overnight, and reported the news of Notting City, guess what?" ”
Mao Bi pretended to ask mysteriously, but I was shocked in my heart, the matter of the departure of the Lord of the Bright Moon Palace, 007 told me, it is definitely a secret, how did this seemingly inconspicuous guy know, and look at his appearance There is a following.
I didn't talk nonsense, I directly took out a generation of soul gold coins and threw it over, Mao Bi took it, and his face was suddenly overjoyed.
He knew that after receiving the money, he should do something, so he simply told the secret in one breath: "The Martial Spirit Hall attaches great importance to this matter, it should not be said that it is very covetous of the soul guide in the hands of a mysterious big man, so they sent a special team to secretly drive to Notting City, the purpose is the soul guide in the hands of that big man." ”
"Who did they send?" I was slightly shocked in my heart, I didn't expect that the Wuhun Hall had already done it, and it was aimed at me, if I hadn't come to the slave market this time, it was estimated that I would have been overshadowed.
Wuhun Palace, if you dare to trouble me, I will definitely make you regret it, and the coldness in my heart rises sharply.
"I don't know about this little one for the time being, but there will be news about the little one soon."
Mao Bi tightened the bag of gold soul coins in his hand, for fear that I would regret it.
And I looked at this little person who should rely on his meager ability to make a living, but I didn't dare to look down.
"Mao Bi, tell me, how many gold soul coins can you earn in a month? Let's be honest. I stared into Mao Bi's eyes and said.
Mao Bi obviously didn't expect why I suddenly asked like this, I didn't know what I meant, and I was stunned for a while.
"Don't worry, I have no ill will." I said.
Mao Bi thought about it for a while, gritted his teeth and said: "If you go back to adulthood, Mao Bi is a poor person, relying on some small means to make a living, the income is not high, it is good to have a few gold soul coins a month, if you are unlucky, you don't even have much income." ”
I nodded, according to the monetary ability of the Douluo Continent, one gold soul coin is enough for ordinary people to live for a month, because ordinary people use silver soul coins and copper soul coins to live.
After listening to Mao Bi's words, I thought for a while and said, "You can do things with me!" I'll give you a hundred Golden Soul Coins every month as revenge."
