The corridor in this cabin still follows the frugal style of the previous floor, and only a small oil lamp is lit across the road, but fortunately there is no wind in the room, otherwise it will become a ghostly talk.

After a dozen steps to the corner of the corridor, the three of them saw that the two sides of the corridor were no longer walls, but small rooms.

Small room with no people.

The door to the room was made of iron railings, and Thirteen pulled the doors of several rooms all locked, and by the light of the oil lamp, he could see that it was empty, and there were no beds, no chairs, not even a straw mat.

The gloomy environment made Huang Guiyun's back a little chilly: "Do the children of the Ling family on the giant ship live here?"

"Death, Ah Huang, are you stupid, you give yourself a cell to live in?"

There are few things in the world that cannot be traded for money, especially in such chaotic times, human life and body have become extremely cheap, some people take money to buy other people's lives, and some people use money to buy other people's bodies.

Even if others don't buy it, when people are cornered, they want to sell themselves, the strong can be thugs, the good-looking ones can be personal pets, and if they can't do it, they can still be servants.

It is definitely not a problem for the huge ships of the Ling family to travel to and from various countries on the sea, and buying and selling human beings is also a business, and among the three of them, it is naturally Wanli Xinkuan who knows the most about business matters.

Compared with Huang Guiyun's incoherent speech, Wan Li's performance was too calm, as if he really saw the staff dormitory, not these cell-like things.

After scolding Huang Guiyun, Thirteen looked at Wan Li's heart and asked, "Master Wan, does the Ling family have any special business, such as buying and selling human ......beings?"

Wan Li's heart was wide and looked at the thirteen daos: "The Ling family is a martial arts master that the imperial court attaches great importance to, and I am afraid that the low-level business of human trafficking is disdainful. ”

Thirteen could only make it clear: "That Wan Gongzi seems to know something about here." ”

Wan Li Xinkuan nodded and said, "I do know a little." ”

Huang Guiyun said curiously: "Master Wan, what is the purpose of this?" ”

"Of course, the cell is used to hold prisoners......" Wan Li's heart paused and said with a frown, "Prisoners with strong martial arts ......"

When a martial artist teaches martial arts, he will also cultivate the martial virtues of the successors, and he cannot bully the weak, and bullying the weak is the most basic rule.

The appearance of the martial god Mushu not only brought peace, but also a large wave of troubles in the follow-up, many people moved crooked thoughts after their strength was improved, burning, killing and looting all kinds of evil, and even gathered people to get involved in the throne.

At the beginning of the Shengwu era, the strength level of everyone was very different, and some people successfully fused the basic mental method of the martial gods, and their skills were growing rapidly, not to mention ordinary people, even the predecessors of some major sects could not stop them.

Just when the martial arts were in misery, Ling Qingniu, the head of the Ling family, came out of nowhere and led his disciples not only to exterminate all those who did evil, but also to clean up the cult by the way.

But there are always evildoers in the rivers and lakes, so the Great Wei Emperor gave the Ling family the right to punish evil in the rivers and lakes and maintain the order of martial arts.

"The people of the Ling family can receive a huge amount of silver reward for catching the wicked people who are causing trouble in the martial arts, and in this way, with the support of the imperial court, the Ling family quickly became a martial arts master, and half of the city defense in Luoyang, where its headquarters is located, is in charge of half of the city defense. ”

"The dark list is also set up by the Ling family, and some criminals who are slightly weaker and wanted will be announced from time to time, and the reward will be determined according to the situation, but they must be alive. ”

No wonder Wan Li Xinkuan made a package ticket and said that if he found Ling Chen, he could be released from being wanted, and the wanted list was controlled by the Ling family.

Huang Guiyun said: "Why do you have to live?" ”

Wan Lixin smiled and said, "Huang Shaoxia thinks that if you want to gain a foothold in the rivers and lakes, what is the most important thing?"

"Chivalrous heart!"

Wan Li shook his head.

"Friend!"

Wan Li hesitated, but still shook his head.

Looking at Huang Guiyun's scratching of his ears and cheeks, Thirteen couldn't help but speak: "It's strength." ”

"The senior is right. There was a hint of hatred between Wanli's wide eyebrows, "The way of martial arts is endless, although all major sect families have extraordinary, but there are always some strange people with a unique knowledge." ”

Thirteen pointed to the surrounding cells and said, "These cells are used to hold people who are uneducated?"

Wan Li's heart was wide and said: "That's right. ”

In order to avoid accidents, Thirteen looked at each small room carefully: "But now there is no one here, and those people will not all be taken to feed the fish, right?"

"It's unlikely. Wan Li Xinkuan slowly patted the folding fan in his hand, "The Ling family will purchase a large number of daily necessities every once in a while, although they use a pseudonym, and often change merchants, unfortunately, those merchants are all under my Wan Chamber of Commerce." ”

“......”

Thirteen is now enough to understand the court's desire to control the martial arts, and the external turmoil in the past relied on the various sects to support it for a period of time, and it was the people in the martial arts who saved the world at the end.

In the early years, there were mutual constraints among the people in the martial arts, and the occasional person who made a disturbance would also have a righteous person to take the initiative to solve it. However, the improvement that Mu Shu has brought to the entire martial arts is too great, and the imperial court will definitely be worried that one day there will be another martial god, so what will it do?

At present, the solution of the imperial court is to support it behind the back, and on the other hand, constantly improve its hidden strength, and when that day appears, it will have enough strength to resist.

Thirteen saw some scratches on the walls of some rooms, as if they were forced to snap them out with their fingers: "Since they are uneducated, can such a small room keep them?"

Wan Lixin said widely: "I'm afraid Wan doesn't know this, if you wait and meet Ling Shaoxia, you can ask the seniors." ”

"If there is a chance, Lin will definitely ask. ”

These cells are just ordinary cells, so Thirteen thought that they were used to imprison some women and children and the like, but Wan Lixin said that it was to imprison powerful villains in the rivers and lakes.

The palm-sized wall just now made Thirteen Eleven slap away, such a small cell may not even be able to control the five or six people in the martial realm, the Ling family must have used some unknown means, and it is more likely that it is related to Hailuo Xiangying.

The scratches on the walls, in particular, are more than enough to prove some of the conjectures......

At the moment, it is more likely to be Hailuo Xiangying.

Hailuo Xiangying is only effective for ordinary people who have not practiced martial arts, and it has no effect on people with high martial arts such as Thirteen, and it does not even have the effect of addiction, so after the imperial court listed Hailuo Xiangying as a banned drug, it is still prevalent in martial arts.

The price of Hailuo Xiangying in the black market once soared, and Thirteen and Luo Cheng also made a lot of money from this, and later the imperial court found several organizations that were quite prestigious in the martial arts at that time, and asked them to come forward in a low voice, and after suppressing it with all their might, Hailuo Xiangying gradually disappeared.

With the current level of force, the powerful person in Wanli's wide mouth should at least be above the Eightfold Martial Realm, if the Ling family has any secret medicine that can control such people, it will make people a little worried.

After Thirteen looked at all the twenty or so small rooms in a row, and at the end of the corridor at the same time, all of them were empty, and it seemed that the Ling family's prison for prisoners had another place.

The new hallway that came from the corridor of the cell didn't even have an oil lamp, and the silence around it was like an abyss, except for the footsteps of the three people echoing in the small space.

As soon as he was rendered by such an environment, Huang Guiyun seemed to hear that there was a ghost crying behind him, and swallowed his saliva and said, "Has anyone really been here?"

Thirteen heard Huang Guiyun's swallowing voice: "Scared, then you can stay here and wait for us to come back." ”

Before sneaking into the Ling family's giant ship, I originally thought that I would encounter some trouble, or fight with the people of the Ling family, or fight with the people who held the Ling family hostage, but as a result, the souls of the people I met in the first wave were all floating away, and the whole ship was also silent, a bit like a ghost ship, which made people feel a little more at ease.

"How can I be afraid! I've seen the world too. Huang Guiyun quietly clenched the Martial God Sword, and his heart was a little more stable.

In order to prove that he was not afraid, the young man walked a few steps quickly, exceeding the width of thirteen and ten thousand miles, and suddenly he seemed to stumble over something under his feet, and he stumbled and almost fell.

Huang Guiyun took the oil lamp and poked into the ground, and a figure was half-leaning against the wall, bleeding from his mouth and nose, indicating that it was a dead person.

"Ahh

Thirteen stretched out his hand to resist Huang Guiyun, who kept retreating: "it, what are the ghosts yelling at." ”

Huang Guiyun trembled and pointed in the direction of the corpse: "Dead...... Dead Man......"
