In the mountains, a majestic city towered, and on the blue-black city wall, rows of guards in black armor, holding longbows, looked solemnly at the bottom of the city wall.

On the wide road leading to Xiongcheng outside the mountain, pedestrians walked back and forth, among them some slave merchants, leading strings of slaves tied with long ropes, and the slaves held long whips on the side, like driving chickens and ducks, driving the slaves forward.

At the end of the road, there is a huge bronze city gate, and you need to look up to look up at the three blood-red characters above the gate: Bloodstone City. The blood-red font is vigorous and powerful, and it seems to faintly exude a blood-colored aura.

On the eastern side of the city there was a clearing, surrounded by sharp iron fences, and in the clearing, there were scattered shacks, all surrounded by rags, simply isolated from the outside world.

At this time, dozens of people sat in a circle on one of the large bunks in the shack, sweeping the black-armored guards patrolling and the guards standing at the main gate from time to time, whispering something.

Most of them were teenagers, their tattered clothes stained with dried blood and stains. The older ones looked to be in their twenties, and the younger ones were fifteen or sixteen.

Among the people sitting around was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy, who was plain-looking and thin, but his eyes were very bright.

I saw that the young man glanced at the black-armored soldiers guarding outside, and saw that the soldiers did not pay attention to this side, and said in a low voice: "Brother Kong Lin asked me to take the lead before, and I contacted the third brother of Jia, and we have already negotiated. The teenagers talked eloquently about their plans.

"This time the leader is the third brother of the shack next door, you must know that he is a strong man who can beat dozens of people by himself, and it is all the people in these four shacks who participate in this plan. ”

"We've known each other in Bloodstone City for half a year, if you don't want to be a slave for the rest of your life, you have to rely on your own life to fight, being a slave, sooner or later one day will be abused to death, if you are willing to do so, then there will never be a day! ”

The young man waved his hand and continued:

"Three days later, in the afternoon, there will be a large slave auction in the city, and the reason for the auction is that a prince of Wu was raided by the emperor because of a coup d'état. ”

"Except for the prince, who was executed, the rest of the prince's palace and all those involved were reduced to slavery and sent to Bloodstone City. ”

"And among them was a county lord. Because the identity of the county lord is somewhat special, when the time comes, there will be many people who come from the state capitals of Wu State. ”

"At that time, all the slave traders in the city would take the slaves to the city square to sell when they were crowded, before the auction. That's our chance!"

The young man's tone was flat, and his eyes flashed, "And...... With so many people fleeing, even if they are caught, they will be beaten at most, and they will be hungry for a few days, and they will not be able to kill all the slaves!"

A young man in a gray rag linen robe, his eyes swept over the black-armored guards guarding the door from time to time, and said with a hint of nervousness in his expression: "We can't escape five or six times, we fail every time, we are beaten half to death every time, and the person who takes the lead is either beheaded or killed on the spot, are you sure that this matter can really be done?"

When the young man heard this, he smiled slightly, and said as if encouraging: "I Mu Bai said that it can be done, and it will definitely be done! Even if you don't believe me, don't believe in the third brother of Jia, you have to believe in Brother Kong Lin, right?" As he spoke, Mu Bai looked at a young man wearing a cyan robe with a gentle face.

The people around also looked at Kong Lin with Mu Bai, looking a little excited.

Kong Lin used to be a showman, went to the Zhongzhou capital to test his fame, met a bandit on the way, because Xiucai was poor, and then he was directly captured by the bandit as a slave and sold, and after several changes of hands, he was sent to Bloodstone City. Because he has some ink in his belly, he is kind and has a plan for doing things, so the slaves are more respectful of him.

This plan was secretly planned by Kong Lin and Jia San, even Mu Bai had to admire Kong Lin's thoughtfulness and thoughtfulness, these words were what Kong Lin said to him in private before, and now it is public.

This time, Kong Lin inquired about the reason for the auction and the time, all of which were handled by Kong Lin, and some details were taken into account.

Mu Bai is usually relatively silent and not good at dealing with people verbally, but this time because he is very likely to succeed in escaping, he volunteered to stand up and say the news.

Kong Lin, who was dressed in a green robe, had a delicate face, a weak temperament, and a slender figure. I saw him nod slightly, and said solemnly: "This matter was planned a month ago, and the reason why I said it for so long was to wait for this slave auction." By then, the city guards have basically been transferred to the city square, so this is our chance. ”

After a little consideration, Kong Lin continued: "I summed it up, the previous few escapes were basically hopeless, although they all escaped in the middle of the night, but because it was the middle of the night, it seemed that the probability of success was high, but the guards knew that the chances of the slaves escaping were high, so the guards were stricter. Therefore, it is imperative this time!" Kong Lin said at the end, his tone extremely firm.

The Bloodstone City, also known as the City of Slaves, where this group of slaves is located, is the largest slave trading center in Wu State, and most of the slaves are bought and sold here to all parts of Wu State.

Every day, there will be some people of great and small forces here, as well as slave merchants from all over the Wu Kingdom, who come to Bloodstone City to buy and sell slaves.

Among all the slaves, those who are skilled in martial arts, have great strength and are able to do heavy work, as well as beautiful female slaves, tend to have a higher price.

And this group of people is a slave merchant stationed here, a detention place rented from the city lord, and there are countless such detention places in the city.

A certain amount of money was paid to the lord every year, and the black-armored guards in the city were responsible for maintaining law and order in the city, and each place of detention was guarded by the lord's guards, and if a slave escaped, the guards were responsible for retrieving it.

This group of slaves gathered in a bunch, the guards don't care, as long as An An doesn't mess around, they don't have so much idle time, only the slaves who take care of these people, and the stalls will be inspected when they come back from the market in the evening, and the rest of the slaves will naturally send food over at lunchtime, and they will not come here the rest of the time, except that they can't go out of the fence, they are still relatively free.

The slaves in the other three shacks were all proud, and before they became slaves, most of them were people of status or relatively strong, and they did not stay here for long, and at most they would be bought in a few days.

And these people can't sell it for a long time, they are all relatively thin, even if they are given as an additive, no one may want it. Only when the slave merchants have no good goods will they be brought out to make up the number.

The group in the shack is planning to escape from Bloodstone City at this time in order to get rid of the status of slaves, and if successful, then they will be free again.
