Bone King's Universal Grocery

Chapter 160 Desolate Domain
Gao Yi's actions made Li Hong feel better about her. If Gao Yi's sisters hadn't made any moves while he was talking with Mingyue, Li Hong would not help them no matter what.

It's not terrible for a person to be in a desperate situation. What's terrible is that he doesn't even have the courage to get out of the desperate situation and resist fate. Now that Gao Yi took the initiative to speak, Li Hong didn't mind giving her a chance.

So Li Hong lowered his head and said to Gao Yi, "Give me a reason to help you."

Gao Yi heard the words and said quickly: "My lord, the slaves and maidservants have a lot of things to learn. The father of the servants has taught us piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, literacy and numeracy. During the year here, we have also learned the work of ordinary servants, such as washing and washing. It's not a problem to clean up and dress up a few young ladies."

"We don't need what you said. If you only have this ability, then I won't help you." Li Hong said lightly.

Mingyue on the side was a little anxious when she heard the words: "Li Hong, can you?"

"Mingyue, that's enough! Don't talk, just listen to the boss!" Before Mingyue could say anything, Qiu'er stopped her.

"But."

"No buts."

Qiu'er's tone was extremely serious, Mingyue sighed helplessly, and did not intercede for the two sisters.

Seeing this, Gao Yi felt a pang of sadness in her heart. She finally saw the opportunity to leave Jiaosifang. Are you going to let this opportunity slip away in vain?no!Absolutely not!It doesn't matter if she stays here as a slave for the rest of her life, but her sister must leave.

Thinking of this, Gao Yi apologized to her father in her heart, gritted her teeth and said, "My lord, I have a secret here. As long as you can save my sister from suffering, I am willing to tell you this secret."

Gao Qing, who had been standing there the whole time, changed her face when she heard Gao Yi's words, and said quickly: "Sister, no! This is something my father swore to keep us safe before he died. You can't say it."

"Father, he abandoned the safety of our family for an outsider. I can't do the same stupid thing now. Compared with any secrets and promises, you are the most important thing. Are you willing to agree to my conditions?"

"Okay, tell your secret! No matter how big or small the secret is, whether it is useful to me or not, I will save your sister."

"Thank you, my lord, the servant girl told me that the secret started from the prisoner my father took care of.

One night a year and a half ago, my father walked out of the government office after finishing his official business in the county, and got into the soft sedan chair to go home, but my father didn't know that a young man had already sneaked into his soft sedan chair.

This man showed his father the totem on his body the moment he got on the sedan chair. My father was rescued by a person with this totem when he was young. In order to repay his kindness, my father asked the sedan chair bearer to carry the sedan chair back home.

In the following months, my father has been taking care of this man in secret, until a year ago, the night before the Dongchuang incident, that man suddenly appeared in front of our family and told us that tomorrow Yanwang's guards would raid the house and told us to leave immediately .

Except for my father, none of our family knew this man and didn't know what to do. However, my father believed his words without hesitation, and immediately arranged for our family to flee for our lives.

But halfway through packing the things, the man suddenly sighed and said that we could not escape, and my father believed his words again, telling our family not to work too hard.

Everyone in our family was confused about this, and my father told us everything after winning the man's consent.

It turned out that this man was from the wasteland in the northwest of the Tang Dynasty, and he was also the king of the wasteland, a nobleman with the blood of Suzaku.

The man also showed us the totem on his body, let us keep this secret in our hearts, and promised that people from the wasteland will come to save us in the future.

Then my father sent someone to send the man out of the city that night, and our family was escorted to Jiaosifang by King Yan's guards. "

After listening to Gao Yi's narration, Li Hong became agitated. He said that the whereabouts of the person with the blood of the Suzaku was a mystery. He did not expect to hear the news about the blood of the Suzaku on the third day after arriving in the Fairy Continent.

Li Hongqiang suppressed the excitement in his heart, and confirmed to Gao Yi: "Gao Yi, you mentioned the blood of the Suzaku just now, is it the family that has the blood of the Suzaku in its body?"

"Yes, my lord. The maidservant was also very surprised when she heard it at first. I didn't expect that the blood of the Suzaku, which the world thought had disappeared, would actually be in the wasteland."

"Where is the wasteland?" Li Hong continued to ask.

"I don't know much about this. I just heard my father say that the wasteland is the place where the dynasty's escaped slaves gather."

"Heh, the Tang Dynasty is really good at whitewashing the peace, Li Hong, this barren land is not simple." Mingyue on the side took the words and said.

"Do you know the wasteland?"

"Well, according to our information from Liberty City, the wasteland is the largest reactionary force in the Tang Dynasty today. This force is composed of escaped slaves and their descendants in the dynasty. The number of them is extremely large.

It is said that the leader of the wasteland was acquainted with the patriarch of the Qilin clan and Mr. Chen Mo, so they were protected by the two, allowing these people to occupy the Gobi and desert in the northwest of the Tang Dynasty. Live and thrive on continent-sized land.

It's just that the environment in the wasteland is too harsh. Most of the land is desert, and the crop yield is too low. In order to survive, the people in the wasteland will collide with the Tang Dynasty from time to time and rob some food and supplies.

The enmity between the two sides became deeper and deeper. His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, who had always disliked Huangyu, directly designated everyone in the Huangyu as imperial criminals, and if they were caught, they would be executed immediately.

Naturally, the wasteland refused to stand still, and organized its own army to fight against the Tang Dynasty, which lasted for more than 200 years. "

"So that's the case, then it seems that we need to go to the wasteland after we finish our business."

"My lord, you have finished listening to the secret of the servant, when will you go to buy the sister of the servant?" Gao Yi asked in a low voice.

"How much will it cost to buy the two of you?"

"The two of us? Your Excellency."

"Your secret is very useful to me, and I can repay you by buying the two of you." Li Hong explained casually.

Hearing that she could also leave Jiaoshifang, Gao Yi cried with joy: "Thank you, sir, thank you, our original identities are officials' ladies, and the ones we sell may be a little more expensive than ordinary civilian slaves, but they won't be too expensive." Where to go, about 200 gold coins per person will do.”

"A total of 400 gold coins? I see. I will talk to the manager here in a while. Now I should buy the pair of brothers and sisters outside."
