Chapter 230: The Little Calamity (I)

Kurel felt that he had been unlucky these past few days.

Eight years have passed since he joined this slave hunting team, and twelve years have passed since he joined the church, and although he occasionally needs to hide in Tibet or disguise himself, life is still passable.

If you don't reveal your identity, you are no different from ordinary outlaws - as long as you don't make a big mess, there will really be no strong people or officers and soldiers who come to chase and kill.

As a member of the slave catcher, they spend most of their time in border areas and even outside their borders, and although the gods they worship are denounced as evil spirits, it does not do them much harm.

Those bloody and cruel spells, the effect of using them on the battlefield simply can't be better.

Killing the extra slaves on the spot every time they couldn't take them away to deter other slaves - this seems to be justified, and at most some people will just condemn them for a moral sentence or two. In fact, it was their blood ritual - except that the details of the ritual were kept simple.

It is very difficult for those cultists to find an opportunity to carry out a blood sacrifice of more than ten people in a peaceful country, and that is no longer a small case, even if they succeed, they will face hunting and killing next.

In the past eight years, the members of the slave hunters have sacrificed hundreds of people, with an average of a dozen per member, and their gods have been greatly encouraged by this, and have given many generous rewards.

And the money after capturing the slave trade is enough for them to live a good life on weekdays - it's just that they are afraid that others will see that their beliefs are different, and they are still carrying some secular petty crimes, so they did not live in the city to enjoy happiness.

Every time he thinks back to his life before joining the slave catchers, he feels unworthy for those fellow villagers who are obviously powerful, but feel at ease to be a small soldier or captain of the guard in their hometown, and he is proud of his wise choice.

For him, these eight years are almost like entering the kingdom of heaven in advance: he can eat when he wants, drink when he wants, and abuse slaves when he is angry, so unpleasant.

However, after this withdrawal from abroad, the slaves should have been sold in exchange for a large sum of money to enjoy themselves, but many unpleasant things happened during this time.

They captured a young and beautiful girl who was said to be of noble blood, and indeed well-bred—and if it weren't for the captain's tight guard, someone might have taken a spin on this precious cargo.

Originally, it should be possible to rely on her to make a lot of money, and if she encounters a big wrong, it is not surprising that she sells it for a high price of three hundred gold coins.

However, the girl had a curse on her body, and it seemed that the curse had taken effect since her parents were killed and forced to leave her homeland - everyone who stayed with her was struck by her.

Although it may not seem fatal, the curse is very annoying, sometimes it can cause people to accidentally fall, sometimes it can make people spill wine all over their bodies, and the most dangerous time is a fire while cooking, although there are no casualties, but it burns the ingredients of the day.

Once, while he was sleeping, one of the five planks on his bed suddenly collapsed without warning, causing him to lose sleep for several days.

The girl had been sold twice, but was immediately refunded by the cursed guests, and even one of them, a local nobleman, wanted to threaten them with compensation - and they simply moved to Van Shee County.

If you throw this girl away, you may be able to get rid of the curse, but this has cost her a lot of money along the way, and if you really lose it, it will be a big loss.

It was impossible to let the delicate little girl walk, so she was given a donkey cart, and she could not be allowed to sleep in the open, so she had to find a special hotel to open a single room each time. Also, take a shower and change clothes along the way...... There is also food expenses, which are all given according to the highest standards, and those who don't know think that they are a group of mercenaries who perform the task of escorting the noble lady.

So, the cultists simply turned to the gods, although they were not very pious, and they did not understand the teachings of the gods very well, but at least they knew to be in awe of the greatness of the gods—they were not sure that it would make the gods unhappy to sacrifice such a small scourge star, so they first held a small blood sacrifice ceremony, slaughtered an ordinary slave, and asked the gods for their opinion.

As a result, even the great gods rejected such a repulsive sacrifice.

While some say that the gods would love this kind of sacrifice with strange powers, more people think of folklore stories about people who sacrificed meat that had fallen on the ground as a sacrifice to the altar and suffered a damnation.

Fortunately, there was no rash sacrifice, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

In the end, everyone in the slave hunting team discussed a countermeasure, that is, to find a wronged leader to sell this small disaster star at a discount, and then they absconded overnight, leaving absolutely no chance of refund and return.

Now, the "wronged boss" has come to the door - it is Luo Ming.

The aristocratic young man had come here alone, but he seemed to have some force in his possession, and it was not worth robbing or kidnapping him for unknown gains.

As long as he is willing to pay obediently, the next group of the slave catcher team will be willing to serve him as a master for the time being.

However, this young man is really picky...... Although everyone in the slave hunting team wanted to send the little disaster away as soon as possible, they really didn't expect that the young master who said that he was going to buy a female slave girl as a maid didn't need them to induce him, and he actually didn't look down on other female slaves at all.

When he commented on the slave girls who were already considered high-quality in the eyes of the slave catchers, the slave catchers wanted to refute them at first, but they soon entered a state of listening and even taking notes, and even wanted him to say more.

After sorting out and digesting these suggestions, the slave catcher's business can flourish and make more money in the future!

However, with such a critical eye, and being able to speak the truth, he must be a remarkable character...... Maybe there will be a very powerful background, if he uses that little disaster star to cheat him out of money, it is difficult to guarantee that this young man will not mobilize his family forces to chase and kill.

To put it mildly, this is a curse to murder others, which is almost the same felony as believing in a cult.

The more Kurel thought about it, the more worried he became, so he secretly went to the captain to discuss.

"Well, I know that you are thinking about everyone in Kuller, but you also know that you will not be able to stand it if you stay here any longer, and we must send this little scourge out quickly, or one day we may mutinied, or someone will run away from the group. ”
