Chapter 254 Entering the Kingdom of Daughters
Luo Te followed the traffickers and slowly crossed the Tongtian River. The surging river seemed to be telling countless unknown stories. They carefully bypassed the Jindou Cave, and after leaving the Jindou Cave, they arrived at the territory of the Xiliang Women's Kingdom.
"Brother, you have fair skin and tender flesh. Those women will definitely like you. You can definitely sell him for a good price."
One of the traffickers said to their leader in a flattering manner. This man had shifty eyebrows and eyes that flashed with greed, as if he had seen a lot of money waving to them.
"Indeed, we haven't seen such a good human race in many years. This time we must make a lot of money from him, and then find the True Immortal to exchange for elixirs and magic drugs to enhance our strength. Then we brothers can go to more distant places to catch human race." The leader of the human traffickers smiled proudly.
He was a burly man with a face full of flesh, his eyes revealed ferocity and cunning, and his words were full of desire for wealth and power, as if the whole world was under his control.
Now that they had left Sanchezhou and entered the border of Xiliang Women's Kingdom, the human traffickers were resting by the stream with their team. The clear stream was gurgling, as if playing a silent sad song for this criminal team.
Roth and his people, who were considered "races", were under strict surveillance and had no freedom at all. The traffickers were far away from them, plotting their next action plan.
They thought they were being kept in the dark, but all this could not escape Lot's ears. Lot had extremely sharp hearing and could clearly hear every word they said even from a distance.
Luo Te thought, it turns out that these people have such strong blood and energy that they dare to go to the Women's Country to do human trade with only a dozen people, and they are not afraid of being left behind by the women of Xiliang Women's Country. It turns out that there is a true immortal supporting them behind the scenes. This true immortal should be the Bull Demon King's younger brother, Ruyi True Immortal.
They used money to exchange for elixirs that could strengthen Qi and blood from the Immortal Ruyi, and then kept capturing people and selling them to the Western Liang Women's Kingdom to make huge profits, and then exchanged the money they earned for elixirs from the Immortal Ruyi. This vicious cycle filled Roth with anger.
These human traffickers are always like this no matter what era they are in. They trample on the lives and dignity of others for their own selfish interests. They are like maggots in the dark, greedily sucking the flesh and blood of innocent people. The anger in Roth's heart grew stronger and stronger, and he secretly decided that he must make these human traffickers pay a heavy price.
The traffickers rested enough and took these poor "human races" on the sinful road to the Kingdom of Women. They walked hard on the rugged road, their steps heavy and hurried, like demons driven by greedy desires. The scorching sun shone on them mercilessly, but could not dispel the darkness in their hearts.
After walking for a long time, they were exhausted when they suddenly heard the sound of gurgling water. As they got closer, the sound became clearer and clearer. Finally, they encountered the mother river and moat of the Xiliang Women's Kingdom - the Zimu River. The river water was sparkling, like a silver ribbon winding through the water. It symbolizes the source of life, but at this moment it also became a witness to the evil transactions of these human traffickers. Looking at the wide river, everyone had different feelings. The human traffickers' eyes flashed with excitement, as if they saw countless wealth waving to them; while the captured people were filled with fear and despair, not knowing what fate would be waiting for them.
That means they are very close to the capital of the Kingdom of Women. As expected, the traffickers took them for a while and saw the capital of the Kingdom of Women in Xiliang. The outline of the capital gradually emerged in the distance, and the tall city walls stood majestically, like an insurmountable barrier. Colorful flags fluttered on the city walls, the buildings in the capital were scattered, and the tiles on the roofs shone with a unique light in the sun.
The traffickers quickly brought them to the city of Xiliang Women's Kingdom. At the gate of the city, the female soldier in charge of guarding the gate immediately smiled brightly when she saw the leader of the traffickers. She said excitedly: "Oh my, you are finally here! I have been thinking about you for a long time! This time, you are much later than the agreed time!" The female soldier's smile was a bit anxious and greedy, as if she couldn't wait to see the "goods" that were brought. Her eyes quickly swept over the traffickers, and finally fell on the "human races" who were under strict guard.
The leader of the human traffickers explained with a hint of apology: "I'm really sorry, we encountered some trouble in Chenjiazhuang before. We were afraid of causing unnecessary trouble, so we didn't dare to act rashly, which led to the delay of our trip." The leader of the human traffickers had a smile on his face, but there was a hint of helplessness in his tone.
Hearing this, the female soldier frowned slightly, with a hint of doubt in her eyes. She asked, "Oh? What kind of thing can stop you? Is there any danger?" The female soldier's brows were tightly knitted together, and her eyes were full of curiosity and worry. She stared at the leader of the human traffickers, waiting for his answer. She was wearing the military uniform of the Xiliang Women's Kingdom, and she looked heroic but also a bit fierce.
The head of the human traffickers said, "Don't mention it. The God and Demon Army of the Tang Dynasty has come to Tongtian River to build a bridge over it. We don't dare to take the risk of arresting people in Chenjiazhuang. The God and Demon Army is too terrifying. Their power is too terrifying. We are no match for any of the hundreds of thousands of troops. We waited until the God and Demon Army left before we started to prepare the goods." The words of the head of the human traffickers were full of fear and awe. His eyes revealed his fear of the God and Demon Army, as if he recalled those chilling scenes. He waved his hand, as if trying to wipe away the uneasiness in his heart.
"The God and Demon Army has crossed the Tongtian River? So it won't be long before they reach our Xiliang Women's Kingdom." The female soldier was a little worried. Her face changed slightly, and a hint of uneasiness appeared in her eyes.
"I brought a lot of good stuff this time. See if you like anything." The trafficker leader pointed at the people behind him. A smug smile appeared on his face again. He seemed to want to make up for his lateness with these "goods". There was a greedy light in his eyes, as if he had seen the wealth that was about to come.
The female soldier's eyes swept over those who were considered "races", and a hint of excitement flashed in her eyes. Her eyes stayed on those young and strong men for a moment, as if evaluating their value. She shook her head slightly and said, "This kind of stuff is okay, but I think I can't afford it with my salary. It's better to leave me an ordinary one as usual, preferably one with good health. The last one died in a few days." The female soldier's words revealed a hint of helplessness and greed. A hint of disappointment flashed in her eyes, but it was soon replaced by expectation. The corners of her mouth rose slightly, as if she was imagining the "goods" she was about to get.
"Okay, I'll go into the city first. This time I got a top-quality product. Maybe it will be favored by the big guys in the city. Then I will make a lot of money. I'll buy you a few drinks."
In this way, the human traffickers brought the people into the city.
