Chapter 200 Dragon and Phoenix Among People

Chapter 200 Dragon and Phoenix Among People

In the evening of the second day, the sky was not yet dark, and bright yellow lanterns were hung high on the stalls in Mengcheng Market.

The whole city of Meng was shrouded in warmth, crowds of people, the sound of children playing, and the hawking of shopkeepers continued, loud and noisy, but it made people feel lively and warm for no reason.

Xiao Rongyan planned to leave for Nanyan Capital tomorrow morning, so he came today to join in the excitement of the evening market.

It was probably because Xiao Rongyan was too ostentatious on the first day when he came, and his hands were too generous, so many vendors who saw him knew Xiao Rongyan, and moved forward with their own goods.

Xiao Rongyan was attracted by a white horse that day, and missed the slave market, so he made a special trip today to see it.

When he walked to the slave market under the guard with a knife, the largest slave trader in the market was pulling a disheveled little girl standing on a high place and yelling: "Don't look at this little girl with shaggy hair, but look at this little girl." The material that the girl wears...is definitely a child of a wealthy family in the Jin Kingdom! It must be thin and tender, buy it back and train it well, and you will have endless blessings in the future!"

As soon as the slave trader's loud voice fell, some spectators squeezed into the crowd and shouted: "Wearing such thick clothes, how do we know if it is delicate skin and tender meat? Let us take a look... touch it , so that we can know if it is really thin skin and tender meat!"

A woman who was watching the excitement at the slave market frowned and left in a huff.

The little lady whose arms were pulled by the slave trader trembled all over, hugged herself hard, her face was pale, if her clothes were taken off in public, and she was touched again, she would have no face to live, she immediately struggled endlessly: "Let me go!" A soldier can be killed and cannot be humiliated! I must not suffer such humiliation!"

The little lady was crying, knowing that a scholar could be killed but not humiliated, she spoke the official dialect of the state of Jin, presumably she was indeed a girl from a wealthy family.

The more fiercely the little lady on the stage struggled and cried more miserably, the more energetic the spectators were.

"It's not enough to touch it! But it will definitely make you take a good look at it!"

Saying that, the slave trader went to tear the girl's clothes.

But before the slave trader really ripped off the girl's clothes, the slave trader withdrew his hand as if he had been stung by something, and looked around with his eyes wide open as if he had seen a ghost. Unexpectedly, the weeping little lady struggled to let go of his hand, almost bumping her head against the pillar, but luckily she was caught by the slave trader's two thugs in time.

The slave trader looked down at his swollen hand, what the hell? !

"Hey! Do you want us to see it or not?!" A man below booed.

"Did this master read and buy it?" the slave trader asked with a smile.

The man who was asked folded his sleeves, his ears turned red and he shrank into the crowd. He just wanted to take advantage of it. If he really had the spare money to buy slaves, wouldn't he have gone to the brothel to have fun?

The little lady who was captured by the slave trader was still crying, begging the slave trader to give her a happy life and let her die!

The wealthy men who were originally interested in this little lady who spoke soft Jin official dialect gave up the idea when she saw that the little lady was looking for death.

Xiao Rongyan was far away, and his eyes fell on the high platform built by wooden boards. He saw a stone not far from the slave trader's feet, and looked past the trafficker to the cage behind him.

In the dark place of the cage, there was a ragged young man sitting cross-legged in a corner. The young man looked young... he looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, but he sat like a green pine, and he had the attitude of a son of a family.

Probably sensing that someone was looking at him, the boy raised his eyes...

Xiao Rongyan's pupils shrank slightly, but the child's eyes looked familiar, deep and quiet, since he was able to knock the slave trader away with stones, he was quite skilled, so how did he get caught? !

Or... the poor family was sold?

The young man sat calmly and calmly in the cage without avoiding Xiao Rongyan's gaze, how could he look like a child from a poor family? And fifteen or sixteen years old are strong laborers, and they are not three or four-year-old dolls who can only eat and drink.

Xiao Rongyan thought for a while, then turned his head to tell Wang Jiuzhou beside him.

Wang Jiuzhou nodded, spared the crowd in front to find the slave trader at the back, pointed to the one sitting cross-legged in the cage and said he wanted to buy it.

The slave trader continued to accompany Xiaolian and said: "You have a good eye! That is a Jin soldier I rescued on the way. He is strong and can buy it back to do anything! It's a bit expensive!"

Smiling, Wang Jiuzhou took out a money bag from his sleeve and threw it to the slave trader, saying: "So much...buy this Jin soldier, and that little girl from the Jin country just now! Is it enough?!"

When the slave trader opened it, his eyes were narrowed for joy, and his attitude was more flattering and courteous than before: "Enough enough! Absolutely enough! Only a little more! So... I feel sorry for charging you so much money! You Pick two more to take away..."

The posture of the slave trader seemed to be ready to let Wang Jiuzhou try to introduce his slaves. Wang Jiuzhou smiled and said: "No, I want these two! Our master is still waiting, dare not delay! Don't dare to be good at it!"

The slave trader nodded again and again, and asked people to bring out the girl and the boy in the cage just now and let Wang Jiuzhou take them away.

Before the boy left, he looked at the slave trader and bowed to the ground, thanking the slave trader for saving his life. No matter what the purpose of the slave trader was, in the icy Jing River, if it wasn’t for the slave trader The businessman rescued him...he had already been frozen to death.

It was probably the first time for the slave trader to see someone who was being sold and even bowed to someone.

Wang Jiuzhou took the two people he bought back to the big house that Xiao Rongyan rented.

Asking someone to bring water for them to bathe and change clothes, Wang Jiuzhou sat on a chair and drank tea slowly, guessing the master's intention to buy this man and woman.

Soon the young man who had bathed and changed his clothes came out, even Wang Jiuzhou, who had seen countless people, was also shocked.

The young man was dressed in a straight suit, with a tall and slender figure, and his facial features were extraordinary, especially those eyes...sharp and hidden, his demeanor was definitely not that of an ordinary boy, he could be called a dragon and a phoenix among men.

How could such a character fall into the hands of slave traders?

In addition to being puzzled, Wang Jiuzhou felt that his master's gaze was like a torch, and his master knew that this young man was extraordinary as he was nested in the cage with his unkempt hair and shaggy face.

Probably because of the noble bearing of the young man, Wang Jiuzhou, who was used to being a slave, spoke very politely to the young man, and asked the young man to go with him to meet his master.

Come, come, who is this young man? Can you guess? !
