There were low shacks everywhere, and the narrow roads were filled with sewage and the smell of rancidity everywhere. For Zhang Xu, who had just seen the grand scenery of the palace of Zhongyue Mountain, he couldn't believe that there was such a filthy place around Zhongyue Mountain.

Compared to the commercial area outside the East Peak, this place is like a slum. However, there were no poor people in tattered clothes, but sharp men in armor and armed arms, all armed and on duty around the camp.

"I've seen two of you in the Lower Prisoner of War camp, but they're guests introduced by the Temple?" a burly man with a squint greeted them and asked them.

"Exactly. Xue Luo said coldly, reaching out and handing over a jade plaque from the temple, "We want to pick a few prisoners of war." ”

"Since it's the temple introduction, everything is easy to say, I don't know what kind of person the two want?" The squinting man took the jade plaque and looked at it, and handed it back with respectful hands.

"At the age of about twenty, I have to cultivate Qi at a high level or above, and I have to look at the others in detail. Zhang Xu said indifferently.

"Although such conditions are somewhat high, they are not impossible. But Childe, you also know that a young cultivator with high cultivation means great potential, and the price may be more expensive......" Seeing that the two of them were headed by Zhang Xu, the squinting man turned to Zhang Xu, revealing a look of embarrassment.

"As long as the people are good, the price is not a problem. Zhang Xu smiled slightly.

"That's good, you two, please come here. The squinting man grinned and led the way to the depths of the camp, introducing the camp as he went.

The entire prisoner of war camp was huge, with tens of thousands of prisoners of war, and was run by a dozen slave traders, and the squinting man was only one of them.

Young prisoners of war were castrated to the palace or enslaved by powerful families, and beautiful female prisoners of war were sold as concubines, both of which were very popular.

Most of the other POWs would end up being sold to work as coolies, or to dig ore underground, or to do other heavy manual work.

And only those who are strong will be used as fighters, fighting to the death in the gladiatorial arena to amuse the powerful. And what Zhang Xu wants is a strong fighter, and the price of this kind of war slave is higher than that of ordinary slaves.

"Two, please. "Under the leadership of Lu Da, I entered the innermost war slave camp, which was more heavily guarded.

"This is the barbarian cultivator who was captured last year, he is twenty-one years old, and his combat power has reached the peak of qi training, what do you think, Master Zhang?" Lu Da asked with a smile as he pointed to the barbarian cultivator in the room.

Seeing that someone was coming, the vicious-looking mantra inside immediately showed a kitten-like and well-behaved expression, which made Zhang Xu look at it and sigh, it seems that this mantra also knows that now is the opportunity to change his fate.

Zhang Xu silently recited the mantra, and a soft light cluster appeared on Manxiu's body, and then two places on his body suddenly lit up.

Zhang Xu shook his head, he could only have two spirit armor on his body, which did not meet his own requirements.

The way to Zhang Xu's spell is unknown, but the snow falls and his eyes are bright and thoughtful.

It wasn't until he looked at the third war slave that Zhang Xu nodded with satisfaction, five places on his body lit up, and at least five spirit armor equipment could be installed. And this person seems to be known for his strength, and he is the most suitable for charging into battle.

"This person only has a high-level Qi cultivation level, and his strength is not as good as the two just now. Lu Da shook his head slightly, quite dissatisfied with Zhang Xu's choice.

A large man, with extremely thick hands and feet, a beard like steel needles, and a loyal and honest face, this is this war slave, whose name is King Kong.

"King Kong, this son is going to take you away, your luck is here, thank you soon!" Lu Da yelled at the war slave.

King Kong grinned, and fell to his knees with a poof, not speaking but kowtowing repeatedly.

"If you want to follow me, you must drip blood on this soul talisman, and after the talisman is cast, you will become my soul deadman, and from now on only listen to me, I will die and you will die, are you willing?" Zhang Xu took out a talisman from his arms and asked at the big man King Kong.

"As long as you can get me out of the prisoner of war camp, let me do anything. King Kong exclaimed without thinking.

Zhang Xu nodded, this person is not stupid.

Took out the iron sword from his arms, made King Kong stretch out his palm, the blade of the sword crossed, the red blood fell, Zhang Xu held the talisman in his hand and used the mana to cast, the talisman spontaneously combusted without wind, and at the same time burning, a phantom rose from the blood flowing from King Kong, flying towards Zhang Xu's nostrils, Zhang Xu sucked lightly, and the phantom immediately entered the body. Then Zhang Xu's heart moved, and he felt that there was something more in the depths of his soul, and when he went to experience it, he could experience King Kong's joyful mood at this time.

With a wave of his hand, Lu Da personally stepped forward and shackled King Kong's anklets with the key, and King Kong followed behind Zhang Xu with a grin.

After looking at a few more, Zhang Xu was not satisfied, and was about to go to the next camp when suddenly a voice sounded.

"This son, are you recruiting soul guards?"

When Zhang Xu turned his head to look, behind the thick iron railing, a thin prisoner of war in a shabby robe was looking at him with blank eyes.

"You also know the Soul Guard?" Zhang Xu stopped.

"Childe, if you really want to recruit soul guards, I am the best candidate. Seeing Zhang Xu stop, the prisoner's eyes showed an eager light, and he said earnestly with the iron railing.

Zhang Xu shook his head: "What kind of best person is a mid-level Qi cultivator?"

"My name is Luo Dan, although my cultivation is poor now, but I am an apprentice of the priest of the Northern Wilderness, if I was not captured by the Great Zhou, I would definitely become a priest of the Northern Wilderness. My ability is not to fight alone, but to help improve the combat power of the entire army. Childe, you must be interested in hunting in the other world when you recruit soul guards, and with my joining, your army's combat power can be increased by at least two percent. Rodin said kindly.

"Do you have such a role?" Zhang Xu's heart moved.

"@#¥#%¥" A series of strange pronunciations came out of Luo Dan's mouth, and then Zhang Xu felt that his body was suddenly much lighter, and a strong feeling of war erupted all over his body, and he couldn't help but be shocked.

"This is my barbarian war song, which has always been a priest's natal sorcery, which can increase the morale of the army within the cast range. Rodin said respectfully.

"What else will you do besides this battle song?" asked Zhang Xu.

"I can also heal the wounded warriors, which can help the wounded warriors stop the spell and heal the blood, and the average minor injury can be healed in a short time. When my cultivation is raised, even the seriously injured can be easily healed. Rodin said respectfully.

Zhang Xu nodded slightly, and after casting the spell, he saw that there were four light clusters on Luo Dan's body.

Along the way, most of the prisoners of war of the right age only have one or two light clusters on their bodies, but this Rodin has four places on his body, and it is quite rare to be able to install four spirit armor equipment.

"Okay, count you in!" Zhang Xu agreed.

Rodin was overjoyed, and did not wait for Zhang Xu's orders, he bit off a finger by himself, Zhang Xu used his mana to cast the soul talisman, and a phantom flew out of Rodin's wound and entered Zhang Xu's body, and then Zhang Xu felt that there was another trace in the depths of his soul.

"Ahh

Lu Da's face changed greatly, and he flew away, grabbing the person who came.

"Skinny Monkey, what are you going to do on a dog day?"

"Brother Lu, that slut, that slut, she scratched one of my eyes. The thin monkey covered his face with one hand, red blood running down his fingers, and shouted with the other finger pointing at the cell.

"Bastard, you deserve it!" Lu Da was suddenly furious, and pushed the thin monkey to the ground, "Thin monkey, I think you are cowardly, why didn't you catch you!"

"What's going on?" Zhang Xu and the Holy Maiden Xue Luo walked over.

"Phew, it's the third guard who was injured, it's really unlucky. Lu Da spat on the ground, and then explained, "The prison is a barbarian girl who was captured from another world, she is very beautiful, but she is wild and untamable. I originally bought it as a dedication to the big people in the court, but I was afraid that she would be wild and untamable and make trouble, so I have been imprisoned here. Unexpectedly, these bastards coveted her beauty and wanted to take advantage of her, and she was already the third injured in her hands. ”

Zhang Xu nodded: "Can you take me to have a look?" ”

Lu Dadao: "Of course, if you are interested in her, I will sell it to you at the original price." Damn, I'm going to kill her now!"

Approaching the cell and looking along the iron railing, I saw a young girl with shackles on her hands and feet squatting on the ground facing outward, her tattered clothes only covering her shame, her hair scattered, and her face dirty but still beautiful.

With a curvaceous body and a beautiful face, if you are dressed neatly, she is definitely a beauty. However, now she is unruly, her face is full of vigilance, and when she sees someone coming, she bites her lip and puts her hands on the ground, looking like she will fly up and attack at any time.

"Building a foundation and cultivating for?" Zhang Xu was stunned.

Lu Da nodded: "Exactly, if it weren't for her cultivation being too high, my subordinates would not have been injured in her hands three times in a row, seeing that her performance like this is not suitable for a big man as a concubine, I am planning to sell her to the gladiatorial arena as a war slave, since you are willing to ask for it, I will sell it to you cheaper." ”

Zhang Xu didn't return, but silently cast a spell, and a soft ball of light flew into the prison and fell onto her body.

Seeing the light group coming, she tried her best to dodge, but because the shackles were too heavy, she couldn't dodge, and screamed at Zhang Xu with her teeth and claws, but it was a completely incomprehensible language.

Zhang Xu ignored her struggles, just looked intently, and saw that nine light clusters lit up on her body, and the large clusters of light almost enveloped her body.

There are so many locations where the spirit armor can be installed, Zhang Xu is overjoyed!

"You don't have to be afraid, I have no ill will towards you. The cell door opened, Zhang Xu walked in softly, and said softly to the girl.

Perhaps feeling that the white light did not harm her, the girl did not attack, but looked at Zhang Xu vigilantly.

"You should be able to understand me, let me ask you, do you want to get out of this cage, do you want to be free?" Zhang Xu asked softly.

The girl looked at Zhang Xu fixedly for a while, and finally spoke: "You, what do you want me to do?"

The sentences are a little rusty, very incoherent, it looks like they haven't spoken for a long time, and the tone is somewhat odd. But considering that she is from another world, it is not difficult to understand.

"I want you to sign a soul agreement with me, so that you only need to obey my orders alone, and no one will beat you and insult you. ”

"Aren't you going to be your slave, your slave alone?" the girl said coldly.

Zhang Xu sighed lightly and promised: "I will not treat you as a slave, but as a combat partner and a comrade-in-arms." The soul agreement is just a guarantee that you will not betray me, after all, you and I are not familiar with each other, and I can't save you for no reason.

It's up to you whether you want to make a soul pact with me and go out with me for limited freedom, or whether you choose to stay in this dark prison. ”

The girl was silent for a moment and nodded, "I'll go out with you." ”

"What's your name?"

"My world has been invaded by you, my home has been destroyed, my relatives have been slaughtered or sold into slavery, and I don't want to mention my previous name anymore, so you can call me Xiaobai, childe. ”
