"Well, after all, we don't have the concept of mealtime. If we want to eat, we can eat 24 hours a day," said the black-robed muscular man, jumping off the dragon car and shouting, "Brothers! Fight! No one should be left alive!"
Before he finished speaking, he took the lead and punched the lean man.
The lean man was startled and suddenly turned sideways, narrowly avoiding the punch.
"Fuck you! You dare to resist!" He was furious and pulled out a scimitar and stabbed the black-robed muscular man in front of him.
With a puff.
The scimitar stabbed into the opponent's body smoothly.
It was so smooth that the lean man was stunned for a moment.
This, this big guy is so easy to give?
However, when he raised his head and looked at the face under the hood of the big guy, he was stunned.
"Hey, no matter how many times, it's still so interesting to see the expressions of you idiots," the black-robed muscular man said something he couldn't understand with a sneer on his face, and then grabbed his right hand holding the knife.
Just a light squeeze.
Crack.
"Uh ah!" The lean man screamed miserably.
"Oh, sorry, I hurt you," the black-robed muscular man smiled and let go of his hand, and the man's right hand fell down immediately, the joints were deformed beyond recognition, white bone pieces pierced the skin, and the whole arm was bleeding.
The man knelt down directly, panting heavily, and making vague wails because of the severe pain.
"Yuan, stop playing," the black-robed man in the distance couldn't stand it any longer, "Aren't you making me look like a demon king?"
"Eh? He's the one who came to pick a fight with us anyway," the black-robed tough guy muttered, "Okay, let you go."
As he said that, he pulled out the scimitar stuck in his stomach, turned it in his hand, and grinned at the lean man kneeling on the ground.
The latter was shocked and shouted repeatedly: "No! Don't! Don't! What are you doing! Someone! Come..."
However, before he finished speaking, the scimitar chopped down instantly.
He didn't even feel a trace of pain, he just felt his vision spinning.
With a click, his head fell to the ground.
He didn't understand why his side had several times more people than the other side, but still suffered this fate.
He didn't understand why no one came to help him.
And his remaining consciousness, at the end of his consciousness dissipated, finally gave him the answer.
He saw the six black-robed dwarves killing people.
He saw his men being beaten without any chance to fight back.
He saw heads spinning in the air.
He saw the hood of a black-robed dwarf fall off.
Revealing a yellow, round head and a swaying green seedling.
"Potatoes?"
"Why, potatoes?"
After this last thought flashed through his mind, he went straight to the underworld.

"Alas, what's the point of this?" Liu Ji looked at the pile of bodies torn apart by the potatoes and thrown into the pit, feeling helpless. "They are good merchants, but they like to rob people on the road."
"Ha, come on, it would be strange if such a large caravan went to such a small village without losing money," Ya Yin curled her lips, "These people are called merchant bandits, and they are essentially robbers, but they like to run such small lines.
They usually don't buy goods, but rob others on the road, and then use other people's goods to do business."
"Huh? Is the robbery posture so unique?" Liu Ji was a little surprised, "Can't they collect tolls on the trade route?"
"With the Adventurer's Guild, how can robbers dare to be mountain kings?" Ya Yin shrugged, "In the eyes of adventurers, these mountain kings are Wang is simply a fixed bounty, okay,
Only these merchant bandits, because they don't commit crimes in urban areas, and they can also make the goods shipped from urban areas have a beginning and an end, so it is difficult to be discovered.
Generally, when the nearby adventurer guild reacts, they should run away to other places. "
"Is that so," Liu Ji touched his chin, "but highway robbery, isn't it possible to hit a wall?"
"No, under normal circumstances, the only iron wall that merchant bandits will hit is other merchant bandits," Ya Yin shook her head, "The caravan has to consider the cost, how much money the goods have and how many people are betting, and they can judge whether they can eat it by looking at the scale. If they can't eat it, they are just passing caravans, and if they can eat it, they are highway robbers. It's their bad luck to meet us."
"Well, that's it..." Liu Ji rubbed his chin.
He said that the caravans he saw in Mir City were all large caravans with hundreds of people. With these thieves around, the life of small merchants would not be easy no matter how they thought.
While Liu Ji and Ya Yin were talking, the black-robed tough guy called "Yuan" by Liu Ji came over.
He was the big sword potato man who grew up first. After two days of struggling, Liu Ji finally gave him the name "Liu Yiyuan".
But this name is really a bit rustic, and Yiyuan doesn't sound much better than Yikuai, so Liu Ji simply called him "Yuan".
"Grandpa, there are a few women over there, are they going to be buried too?" Yuan said.
"Ah? Women?" Liu Ji was stunned, "He brought his family with him when he came out to rob?"
"Huh? What? There are women with him?" Ya Yin frowned, "This group of people have always been prostitutes and not families? Are the people here different?"
"Let's go and take a look," Liu Ji said in a spell, and then said to Yuan in Chinese, "Come on, take me to see."
"Oh, this way," Yuan said, turning around to lead the way.
Liu Ji and Ya Yin followed him all the way to the rear, and finally stopped at the end of the convoy of merchants and bandits.
On the last three dragon carriages, a total of six cages were placed.
Four of the cages were empty, except for the last two cages. One contained a woman who looked to be in her thirties, and the other contained two women who looked to be in their twenties.
Their eyes were covered with cloth strips, their feet were tied with heavy shackles, and their hands were tied together with ropes.
His body was surprisingly not dirty, his hair seemed to have been combed, and he was wearing a gray-white linen skirt.
"This is..." Liu Ji's brows suddenly wrinkled.
"Slave wives, tsk," Yayin said in an unhappy tone, "they are a common commodity in the goods of merchants and bandits."
Perhaps because they heard an unknown female voice, the three women immediately raised their heads and looked around, as if searching for the source of the voice.
"What do you mean, I'm going to help them untie them?" Liu Ji asked.
"No, let me do it," Yain said, lifting her hood, "Just open the door for me."
"Yeah, that's okay," Liu Ji agreed, walked to the cage where the woman was imprisoned, and with a wave of his hand, he knocked the top cover of the cage away, then pulled the cage door and opened the cage. The door was ripped off and thrown aside.
Then he went to the car behind and helped open another cage.
Yayin jumped on the dragon carriage and walked towards the tied woman.
The woman seemed to have been startled by the sound of Liu Ji violently opening the cage. At this moment, she heard someone jumping into the car again, and she quickly shrank back.
"Hey, don't be afraid, it's okay," Yayin said softly in common language and walked towards the woman softly.
The other party was startled by Ya Yin's voice at first, but when he heard the friendly female voice, he didn't seem to shrink back any more, but he still bit his lip and did not dare to speak.
Yayin gently helped her take off the cloth covering her eyes.
However, when she saw the woman's eyes, she was stunned.
Those eyes actually have white pupils and black whites!
In her memory, there is no race...
No!
etc!
wrong!
a kind……
A race that has long been extinct on that side of the desert...
"You, are you from the Shangxiang clan?" Yayin said in astonishment.
"Huh? Huh?" The woman looked at Ya Yin, a little confused, "No, no, I am from the Baitong tribe. So, who are you?"
"Ah, oh, I'm sorry, we'll talk about this later," Yain shook her head, "I'll help you untie your shackles first..."
"No, no! Those shackles..." When the woman heard this, she was so frightened that her face suddenly changed, and she refused repeatedly.
However, Yayin smiled slightly, recited a brief incantation, hooked her right index finger, and the shackles on the woman's feet immediately untied themselves and floated to her hands.
"Oh, don't worry, this level of explosion trap is just for coaxing children," Yayin said, casually throwing the teaching test into the distant forest.
Not long after, a soft sound like a muffled fart came from over there.
"Well, look," Yayin said with a smile, "after all, these dog dealers are reluctant to let their goods really explode."
134. Two-in-one If you have that ability, there will be many people in this world who want to be tyrants
"Then, be careful on the road," Yayin waved to the three women.
The three women saluted Yayin, thanked her repeatedly, and then drove the dragon carriage towards Mir City.
"Huh... Is it true that they won't be robbed by bandits again on the road?" Liu Ji was still a little worried as he looked at the dragon carriage going away. "This road is not short."
"Usually not...but it depends on luck," Yayin said helplessly, "We can't possibly spend another two weeks sending them there, right?"
"But we can send them to the village?" Liu Ji asked doubtfully.
"No, they just came from the village," Yayin sighed.
"Huh?" Liu Ji frowned, "They were arrested... No, you mean, they were sold?"
"At least that's what they told me," Yayin said helplessly, "Such things are very common in remote villages like this, but there is something strange about it..."
"Where?" Liu Ji asked.
"Age," Yayin said, "They are in the prime of life, and they are in good health. Even women can be self-reliant, and they don't look like they are suffering from famine. I really can't figure out why they were sold, or that , I can’t figure out who did this to sell them.”
"Didn't you ask them?" Liu Ji asked doubtfully.
"I asked, but they seemed unwilling to tell," Yayin shook her head and said, "Forget it, it doesn't matter. We'll find out when we ask around."
"Well, okay," Liu Ji nodded, then looked at the two carriages carrying cages, and murmured, "But are there so many cages to prevent problems before they happen? They have to be closed when they are full. There are quite a few people…”
"It may have been used to imprison livestock. Who knows," Yayin said, walking around the car while checking the goods inside. "Salt, iron, cloth, and the third child. The leather of these two carts should be from the inside. The pulled out and some marinated meat should also be purchased from the village, and they are not worth much money..."
"But we can't waste them. We can take them to their village and sell them cheaply later," Liu Ji said, shouting at the potatoes to help unload the goods.
The team of more than a dozen dragon carts was too long. After all, they were not really doing business, and the things on the carts were not full. The team of this group of people had room for "purchase", and they had just sold a batch of goods, so they also had some spare space. It shouldn't be difficult to control the number of dragon carts to about seven with a little shuffling.
As for the remaining earth dragons...
Although these kids said they wanted to eat, the earth dragon carts were also precious means of transportation in this area. It would be a waste to eat them as pigs. Ya Yin planned to use some magic to let them take the empty carts back to the post station in Mir City.
As for the problem of feeding the kids meat.
There were so many pickled meats collected from the village on the carts, and it was not appropriate for them to take them back. They simply ate them directly to save space.
"Speaking of which, I'm used to eating big meat in Mir City..." Liu Ji muttered as he looked at the pickled poultry pieces bubbling in the pot, "Now looking at this ordinary poultry, it feels so small."
"Small villages in places like this are lucky enough to drive away monsters with arrow towers and high walls, but don't expect them to dare to hunt monsters," Yain poured a bunch of washed mushrooms into the pot, "hunting a wild boar is enough to make a hunter happy for two months."
"Is that so," Liu Ji stirred the broth with a spatula, "but I think their eyes are quite unique, No special abilities?"
"Unfortunately, no, they are just very recognizable, which has caused a lot of trouble for their race," Yayin sighed, "Because most outsiders feel uncomfortable looking at their eyes, their tribe has always been relatively closed,
But it just so happens that some guys with special fetishes like their eyes very much, and people in their tribe don't like to go out. In some places, if there are female slaves of their race, they can always be sold at a very high price. "
"This... Is human trafficking legal?" Liu Ji asked.
"Some areas are not, but there are always areas that are," Ya Yin shrugged, "So, as long as you want to buy, there is always a way."
"That's right," Liu Ji sighed, "What happened later? It's impossible that the human traffickers invaded and destroyed them in order to capture people?"
"Obviously impossible, but it's almost the same," Ya Yin said, "According to records, at a certain time, one of the largest human trading places set off a sales boom among the Shangxiang tribe.
In order to "purchase goods", more and more merchants and bandits began to sneak into the Shangxiang tribe's territory, not only capturing people everywhere, but also directly attacking villages.
In order to deal with them, the Shangxiang tribe could only suppress the bandits while negotiating with the big country where the trading place was located, but the effect was minimal. The other party clearly didn't care about their lives at all.
