Building a sect from scratch

Chapter 288 The Strange Wandering Witches

Soon, Ah Zhi couldn't think anymore.

Because from the moment he was forced to board this big ship, everything he encountered was far beyond his understanding.

The boat could actually fly in the sky, and the slave could actually drink clear water - the sweetest and clearest water he had ever drunk in his life. The most incredible thing is that the wandering witches on the ship are all very kind. They are not like the witches in the tribe who regard slaves as dirty things.

Wandering witches refer to monks. For example, the monks who are supported by the various tribes in the wilderness are called witches or divine witches, while the monks from outside are called "wandering witches".

"Witch" is a superior being. The status of the "Great God Witch" in the tribe is extremely high, and all clan elders must listen to him.

However, although these are common sense that everyone in the Liuhuang tribe knows, they are not things that slaves can have access to.

Slaves are not worthy of seeing a witch. Even looking twice at him is considered blasphemy and his eyes will be gouged out.

The slave could only bend his waist, lower his head, and look at his toes.

This strange big ship stopped several times one after another, and seemed to go to several different tribes. More and more slaves were brought on board. Before long, the deck was filled with people.

Although everyone is a slave, they can't communicate at all. Ah She has long been pushed away by the crowd and is separated from the slaves of the Feng clan. He hears an incomprehensible language - Liuhuang is a place with different pronunciations. , the languages ​​of the various tribes are not interoperable. On the contrary, although the language spoken by the wandering witch masters is incomprehensible, they can somehow understand the meaning of the words. This must be the trick of the wandering witch masters.

Then came the long voyage. It was the first time that Ashe had been on a ship for such a long time, and it was still a ship that could fly in the sky.

He could see the moon hanging high in the sky and the stars scattered all over the sky. Sometimes, he could also see through a moist cloud.

This wonderful experience weakened his fear of the unknown a lot.

I don't know how long it took, but the boat finally stopped and slowly descended until a loud noise was heard and the boat fell into the water.

"What's that?"

Ah Zhi looked at the "big river" not far away with no end in sight, and asked in shock and fear.

The river was so blue that it made people nervous, and the waves were even bigger than during the flood season of Yingshui River. There was a strange fishy smell coming from the tip of the nose, and even the air seemed to be "salty".

No one answered him. Most of the slaves were so shocked by the "big river" that they opened their mouths and were speechless. Some slaves seemed to recognize the river. They were noisy and talking about something. However, Ah Zhi saw a little slave who was not too old, pointing to the big river, and kept pronouncing a syllable, which seemed to be the name of the river.

They called that river, "the sea."

Soon, Ah Zhi no longer had time to think about the big river called "Hai".

All the slaves were driven off the ship and into an open wasteland.

Then, countless wandering witches surrounded everyone, started shouting something, and bargained with the wandering witches who got off the boat.

I can understand the words of those wandering witches!

Ah Zhi was startled.

He heard a wandering wizard pointing at a dozen slaves, including himself, and shouting: "Pack it up and I'll take them all! How about ten yuan a person?"

Another wandering wizard who appeared out of nowhere shook his head: "No, no! Last time it was 10 yuan per head because they were old, weak, women and children, and the ones the Hunsha Sect received had some problems, so the price was low. , this time we got it from the Liuhuang area. Look, these are young and capable young men! How can they pay back 10 yuan!"

"Then make a price!"

"At least 30 yuan per head!"

"You might as well grab it!" You Wu, who planned to buy a slave, blushed and shouted: "Even if the price increases, you have increased it too much! And look at some of them, they are sallow and thin, they are not worth anything at first glance !”

The wandering wizard who sells slaves plausibly said: "Human heads are in short supply. If you don't want them, there are plenty of people who want them!"

"No, no, I'll definitely give it to you, but the 30 yuan you pay per person is too outrageous... 20, how about 20 yuan per person?"

"Well... add more, 25!"

"You call this extra money!? Can't you, Fu Lu Shou, be black businessmen? 20, come on! I really want all of these dozen!"

"Okay, okay! I'll give it to you! I don't know why you Taiyin Sect people like to bargain so much..."

Hearing the conversation between the two wandering witches made Ah She frightened. Everything else was fine, but the mention of "human heads" in their words was really scary. Could it be that... they wanted to kill them and use their heads as sacrifices?

Ah Zhi secretly guessed, sighing in his heart.

But they didn't expect that the wandering wizard who bought them would actually ask them if they were hungry! ?

"ah?"

Ah Zhi opened his mouth wide, and some of them couldn't react. The other slaves didn't show any mercy.

Rather than asking the slaves if they were hungry, it was better to say that everyone was never full.

In the place of Liuhuang, there are few products and water is in short supply, let alone food.

The harvests of rice and wheat are pitifully small, but more corn is grown, but compared to other continents and islands such as fertile Central Continent, the yield is really not enough.

Therefore, not to mention slaves, even free people in the tribe are often hungry and full. I am afraid that only nobles and wizards are qualified to eat.

As for asking slaves "are you hungry?", he had never heard of such a thing in the twenty years since he could remember.

Before anyone could react, a fragrant, soft, meaty pancake was stuffed into Ah Zhu's hands. He had only seen such clean and tempting pancakes from afar at the banquets of his former master, and even the steward might not have eaten them!

"Forget it, you all look so skinny, you must be hungry, eat some sesame cakes first, don't eat more if you don't have enough, don't eat too much if you are hungry for too long, or you will die easily! If you die, my money will be wasted!"

The wandering witch seemed to like talking a lot, mumbling to another wandering witch beside him, all the content that Ah Zhu couldn't understand: "Have the sleeping tents been set up? Let them rest for a day before working, otherwise they will be exhausted from the journey, and if they encounter acclimatization, a few people will die, and we will lose a lot!"

The words of the other wandering witch were even stranger: "Can you have some humanity! Even capitalists would cry after hearing this, you should be hung on the street lamp with the emperor and others! Anyway, the mineral vein is there and it won't run away, at least you should let them adapt for a few more days and sign a labor contract, right?"

"Oh! It's just a game, why are you so serious..."
