Mist Fairy

Chapter 84
In the thick mist, a crisp bell rang, although the bell was barely audible a foot away.But within ten feet, the ringtone was still clear and pleasant.

The sound of the bell came from a white donkey. The white donkey walked with its head shaking. Every time it shook, the copper bell would ring.

Sitting on the donkey is Wen Yun in white, but he will be called Yihe now.Dressed in white, with a handsome face, except that the crotch is not a white horse, everything else is perfect.

But Zhang Cundao, who was struggling, was trudging behind the ass of the donkey with a walking basket on his back.No way, who told him that he was the 'servant' of the son in front of him.

Seventeen or eighteen-year-old Yihe bought a donkey and a servant with all his property, happily took the marriage certificate, and went to Wuwang City to be his son-in-law.

But he didn't expect to be kidnapped by the bastard of Zhishanshui Pavilion when he passed by Qianshan City!He never expected that Qianshan City would be taken over by people from Zhishanshui Pavilion!

Now, Wenyun and Li Daitao stiffened and turned into Yihe, and took Zhang Cundao to Wuwang City.

I don't know how long I walked through the fog, and suddenly the fog in front of me dispersed.Two men and a donkey appear beneath a large plaque.

On the left side of the plaque is written 'Blessed Land Without Vain' and on the right side is written 'A Journey Where People Come and Go Ghosts'.There are three big characters in the letter 'Wuwangcheng'!
"This is Wuwang City! We are finally here!" Wen Yun said.After this time, he should be called Yihe.

"Yeah, it's finally here!" Zhang Cundao loosened the pannier on his shoulders and looked towards the road.

There are also many people on this road, but most of them are bound hands and feet, being driven forward like cattle and horses.

These people were dressed in rags, they were all in their 30s and [-]s, their faces were all gray and numb, they were driven into huge carriages without a word, and then the carriages rumbled away and disappeared into the mist .

"These are..." Zhang Cundao frowned watching all this.

"Wuwang City is the most famous place for human trafficking nearby. The specialty here is people." Wen Yun said lightly, but he didn't have much reaction to these things.

Population is also a resource in the foggy world.Buying and selling people is very common in the foggy world.

The little white donkey leaned against the side of the road and walked slowly towards Wuwang City.When you get to the edge of the city, there is a huge population trading market.Those in the fence are not cows and horses, but gray-haired and disheveled people.It's just that there are no children or old people here.

Young and strong men are sold batch by batch, while the price of young and strong women is two to three times that of men.These men and women will be transported to other blessed lands to be used as labor force.

Zhang Cundao, who came from modern society, was somewhat uncomfortable seeing these.Wen Yun, on the other hand, took it easy and rode a little white donkey into the city.

As soon as he entered the city, he heard the sound of reading books.In a courtyard not far from the road, dozens of children were sitting on the ground, shaking their heads and reading books, and a man who looked like a gentleman was teaching them.

These children read very seriously, none of the children were distracted or playful, and their small faces were all serious and serious.

There are still quite a few people walking on the streets in the city. It is worth mentioning that there are a lot of pregnant women here. Among ten women, there are seven or eight pregnant women with their bellies sticking out.

It’s just that none of these pregnant women’s faces showed the joy of giving birth to life, but instead they all had a lingering numbness and sorrow...

The atmosphere along the way was very depressing, only the little donkey's copper bell brought a little vitality.

After walking in the city for a short time, I finally arrived at a gorgeous house.There are two large characters 'Zhao Fu' written on the gate of this mansion.

Wen Yun handed over the marriage letter, waited quietly for a while, and a man in charge came out.He looked Wen Yun up and down for a while, and said arrogantly: "You are the new uncle? You look good, come with me."

After speaking, the side door opened.Wen Yun and Zhang Cundao got in.

Not long after entering, the steward recruited a servant and said to the servant: "Take the new uncle to wash, change clothes, and use some incense. Don't make it too shabby, take him to the flower hall for dinner at night, and give the old man the palm of his eyes." .”

The servant nodded and bowed his head, and when the manager left, he gave Wen Yun a sideways look and said, "Let's go, go wash up." There was no respect in this tone.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Cundao whispered to Wen Yun: "I heard that the son-in-law is not valued by anyone, but it's too much here."

Although his voice was very small, it was heard by the servant.The servant sneered and said: "There are more than 20 ladies in my Zhao family, and there are more than a dozen uncles who change every year. Don't think that you came in under the name of uncles. If you have no children, your fate will not be better than ours. go!"

Hearing this, Zhang Cundao and both were taken aback. What does this mean?There are performance requirements for being a son-in-law?

The servant didn't want to say any more after finishing this sentence, and took Zhang Cundao and Wen Yun to a small courtyard, and said, "This is the bath room, go and wash."

The two nodded and were about to go in.But at this time, the servant stopped Zhang Cundao, and he asked strangely: "You are also a aunt?"

Zhang Cundao was taken aback, shook his head and said, "I'm not, I'm the young master's servant."

The servant became angry when he heard it, and immediately scolded: "A servant like you also wants to take a bath in the uncle's yard? Are you worthy? You look like this, and you can tell that you have no uncle's life! Take your donkey to the handyman's yard quickly !"

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Cundao was very annoyed.But considering his current status, he could only endure it.Then he led the white donkey and followed the servant to the handyman's yard.

On the way, the servant said to Zhang Cundao: "If you look like you, you are destined to be a servant. But being a servant also has the advantages of being a servant. What's so good about being a son-in-law? If there is no heir for a year, the lady will divorce her husband. And the divorced son-in-law is not even as good as a servant!"

Hearing this, Zhang Cundao hurriedly asked: "Why is there such a thing, then my young master..."

The servant snorted coldly and said: "My master only wants people who can practice. He has many heirs, but once he reaches the age of awakening and does not awaken the scriptures, he will be sold by the master without mercy. The same is true for the ladies. , if you don’t conceive after a year, then this uncle will be beaten to death, either sold or sent to a bitter kiln.”

"Ah! There is such a thing!" Zhang Cundao was dumbfounded.At this moment, he suddenly feels sorry for Wen Yun. This handsome man has endured much more than others!
