The villagers here and those farming outside are probably not the same people.

It's quite strange though.

If those people outside the village are from the next village, and the land has been planted in front of the house here, why should the people here let them plant it?

Moreover, in such a big village, it is outrageous that people of other races are surrounding the village and farming. The two sides can only yell at each other at the door and cannot fight, which is very outrageous.

But then again, Liu Ji really didn't find anyone farming in this village.

It feels like people in this village either go out hunting every day or go fishing in the lake not far away.

Just looking at their daily harvest, they have enough to eat, but they feel like they can’t save much extra stock, and they don’t know if they will go hungry in the winter.

During this period of time, because Yayin was busy with her own business, Liu Ji, apart from selling some things every day, had relatively free time the rest of the time, so he simply used this time to teach the potato brats.

Topic - Basic common sense as a human being.

Although Liu Ji did not expect these potato bastards to act according to the way of human thinking, at least he could not let them not feel that they had done something too unhuman.

Especially Yuan.

Now that you already look like a person, you have to at least live like one.

Otherwise, if Liu Ji isn't watching one day, he will be eaten by others just to see which one tastes better. It is not impossible for him to do such a thing.

Today, after the morning market time, Liu Ji was teaching the Potato Boys as usual.

However, just a few minutes after Liu Ji's small class started, he noticed someone walking over.

It was a woman.

He is not a white-eyed person like the one in the village, but an outsider with fluffy round ears and an unknown race.

Her hair was light yellow like withered grass, and she looked very thin. One of her eyes was wrapped with a strip of cloth, and the cuff of her left hand was empty. She must have lost her left arm.

Seeing her approaching, Liu Ji thought she was coming to buy something, so he quickly stopped teaching and walked to the stall, showing a business smile as a greeting and welcome.

At this time, Liu Ji was even thinking that after so many days, he still saw a foreign resident coming to buy things.

The latter walked to the stall, lowered his head, and scanned the items on the stall. Finally, his eyes stopped on a piece of cloth.

It was a piece of light yellow soft cloth, very suitable for making women's clothing.

only……

Liu Ji looked at the female hand.

With one hand, if you want to cut out a new dress for yourself, I'm afraid it will be a bit difficult...

And just when Liu Ji was thinking this, the woman's eyes turned elsewhere.

This time, she looked at a round glass ball.

It is a small magic lamp. As long as it has basic magic guidance ability, it can be charged and provide long-term night lighting.

Unfortunately, there seems to be no one in this village who can guide magic. This little magic lamp has been left here for a few days, but no one has shown interest in it. When Ya Yin was there, someone asked casually. Yes, but they always asked questions such as what kind of jewelry it was and whether it was expensive.

After all, it’s just a matter of watching the excitement.

So when the woman looked at the little magic lantern, Liu Ji was a little surprised.

Could it be that this girl who was sold here actually has some magic?

Therefore, when the other party stretched out his hand towards the little magic lamp, Liu Ji did not stop him.

He subconsciously thought that the other party wanted to input some magic power into it and see what kind of light it would emit.

Then, he watched the woman pick up the little magic lamp, pursed her lips, suddenly turned around, and ran away.

Liu Ji was immediately stunned.

Good guy, he is actually a thief? !

He immediately wanted to catch up, but after taking a step, he stopped again.

Come to think of it, no foreign women have ever come here to buy anything these days.

That's right, after all, they are all bought wife slaves. People here have to buy things in exchange for captured prey. These disabled wife slaves are even less likely to have money to buy things...

After thinking about it, Liu Ji thought it was better to forget it.

Take it away, it's not easy for these poor people.

It's just an ordinary little magic lantern. It costs 20 yuan a piece on Mill City Street. Just take it and take it. There's no need to worry about it.

However, what he didn't expect was that the woman stopped after running dozens of meters away.

She turned around and looked at Liu Ji, showing a slightly surprised expression when she saw that Liu Ji didn't chase her.

She stood there for a while, then turned back.

Liu Ji watched in surprise as she quickly walked back to him, and then she raised her right hand.

With a sudden movement, she threw the little magic lamp to the ground.

With a crisp sound, the fragile little magic lamp fell to pieces.

Yuan on the side stood up immediately.

Liu Ji waved his hand to signal him not to move.

He frowned and looked at the woman in front of him. He wanted to see what this guy was going to do.

Seeing that Liu Ji still didn't respond, the woman seemed a little anxious for some reason. She looked left and right, then suddenly grabbed a box of eggs from the stall, threw them directly to the ground, and smashed them into pieces.

Liu Ji still said nothing, still just looking at her silently.

The woman seemed even more anxious and looked behind her. Although the morning market time had passed, the commotion here still attracted the attention of some people. From a distance, some villagers could be seen pointing at this place. While whispering to each other, there was a lot of discussion.

The woman turned her head and glanced at Liu Ji, gritted her teeth, suddenly grabbed the tablecloth on the stall, and lifted it violently, tearing the entire stall apart.

The noise was really loud this time, and many villagers were startled, but no one came up to stop it, they just yelled something loudly.

Not long after, a male villager was greeted by other villagers and ran over anxiously.

When the woman saw this, she became even more panicked. She turned around to see that Liu Ji still had no reaction. She looked left and right, and in desperation, she slapped Liu Ji.

However, before her palm could reach her, she was grabbed by the villagers who came in a hurry.

The villager grabbed her hand, held down her head, and while retreating, he kept bending down to apologize to Liu Ji. After retreating a few meters, as if he was afraid that Liu Ji would seek compensation from him, he pulled the The woman ran into the crowd and disappeared.

Liu Ji looked at the direction the two were leaving and narrowed his eyes slightly.

"What's going on?" Yayin, who noticed the commotion, walked to Liu Ji, looked at the mess on the ground, and asked doubtfully, "Is there anyone here who can smash your stall?"

"No, I'm not smashing the stall," Liu Ji shook his head. "It's a bit strange. How should I put it? I feel like someone is asking me for help..."

"Huh?" Yayin blinked in confusion. She had just come out of the tent where the magic array was set up, and she didn't know what had just happened outside.

"Well... let me think about it," Liu Ji sorted out his words, "What do you think, if a wife slave smashed the valuables of the caravan, and her, uh, what is it called, the owner? He has no money at all. What will happen if compensation is given?”

Yayin frowned, looked at the mess, pondered for a moment, and said: "I think she will be used to pay off debts, and the end will not be too good, at least, if it ends like this, the end will definitely be It’s not going to get better.”

"Yes, that's the problem," Liu Ji said, "As long as she's not a lunatic, there's no reason to do this suddenly, unless she just wants to be used to pay off debts."

Yayin rubbed her brows, was silent for a moment, and said, "I can only say that I don't have time. Also, if you cause trouble, please solve it cleanly."

"Yes, I know," Liu Ji nodded, turned around and greeted, "Yuan, clean up here and take care of the shop. I'll leave for a while."

At the city gate, the one-eyed man and his friends were looking towards the village.

Since the square where Liu Ji was located was in a straight line with the main gate, they had a rough idea of ​​what had just happened.

"Brothers, what do you think?" one person asked.

"I think it is certain that this person is definitely not an ordinary businessman," one person replied, "I have never seen a businessman who can be so calm even when his stall was smashed. Normally, you would step on him if you were a group of people." Red cloth, they all want to pluck their babies out of you."

"But, if they are disguised businessmen, why have they been staying in that square these days?" Another person asked, "We have been squatting for several nights and we have never seen them come out."

"If you ask me, we are probably overthinking it. Maybe this is a young man from a big chamber of commerce who came here to experience life," another person said, "Look, they have been fishing here for several days, do they look like they are just messing around? ? And if it is the young master of the big chamber of commerce, it makes sense that the group of gangsters were killed by them. Look at the strong man in black robe. His physique looks fierce. He is probably some high-level warrior who works as a bodyguard for the young master. .”

After everyone heard it and thought about it for a while, they unexpectedly found it quite reasonable.

"And, look at his green hair, does it look like it was dyed by a dandy to express his personality?" One person said, "If he were really from the principality, he wouldn't have such an exaggerated hair color, would he?"

"Yeah, this hair color doesn't look like a spy from the principality!"

"And they eat big fish and meat every day. When have you ever seen ordinary caravans so extravagant?"

"It makes sense!"

The one-eyed man looked at his friends and chatted with each other. The more they chatted, the more they realized it was true.

But, for some reason, he always felt that something was wrong...

"By the way, why did that woman smash their stall just now?" he asked suddenly.

Everyone was taken aback.

Right?why?

Just now, their attention was all on Liu Ji, but they forgot about this matter.

"Normally, for these wife slaves, there will be no good results if they offend the foreign caravans, right?" One person said, "They are the best at using 'value'..."

"Yeah, and after using it all the way, it will usually be resold at the next stop," another person said. "By then, it will be sold at a discount, and I don't know if I can still survive..."

"Could it be..." Another person swallowed and said, "That thing is going to start again?"

When everyone heard this, they all had a meal.

"How long was the last time?" one person asked.

"Just after Bobby's birthday..." another person replied.

"Well, it seems like it's been almost two months, right?" Another person said, "It seems like it's really...then, what should we do this time?"

The one-eyed man was silent for a moment and said: "Let's go back first. It just so happens that it's time for us to report the current situation to the boss..."

----

"Snapped!"

The man slapped the woman on the face.

"Damn you! Who asked you to go out! You are still looking for trouble with the businessman! Are you crazy!? Do you know what will happen to you if you are taken away by them?" He shouted loudly.

The woman lowered her head and stared at the man in front of her with her only eye, remaining silent.

The man looked at her, bit his lip, and said again: "You, you should know that if you offend a merchant, they will no longer simply treat you as a commodity. They will treat you as much as possible on the road... you You should understand, right? Then you will still be sold, and slaves with criminal records will be sold somewhere, you should know, right? Huh?"

The woman still just looked at him without saying a word.

The man frowned and looked at her for a long time.

Then, he asked: "Did you...hear it?"

The woman still didn't respond, but the look in her eyes made the man feel more and more upset.

The two looked at each other for a long time. Then, the man suddenly gritted his teeth, grabbed the woman's hand, pulled her to a small room behind the house, kicked open the door, and pushed the woman in.

Then, he closed the door with his backhand, looked around, pulled a long rope as thick as his thumb from the shelf on the side, wrapped the rope around the door handle several times, then pulled the rope and wrapped it around the shelf on the side. , went around a few more times, and tied a dead knot.

In such a deserted mountainous village, hoes and sickles had to be bought from outside, and locks were even more rare. He could only use this method to lock the door.

"Stay there for me," the man said sternly, "I'll come back after my work. If I find you running out again, don't blame me for tying you to a pillar!"

After that, he left quickly.

In the shadow, a ball of sand moved, and soon it transformed into Liu Ji's appearance.

Looking at the man's retreating figure, Liu Ji pursed his lips.

Ok……

He felt a little weird.

How should I put it, after making such a big deal, he thought the brother would do something to the woman, but it seemed like he just slapped her in the face, cursed her a few times, and locked her up.

It's a pity that he couldn't understand their words and didn't know what the man said.

However, I always feel that it is too Asasi compared to what I imagined.
