Twenty miles northwest of Hejian Prefecture, there is a large mass grave, with pine and cypress, countless graves, foxes and rabbits appearing, and people are rare. However, in recent months, this wasteland has become lively.

Thieves, gangsters, and refugees gathered here, either hiding stolen goods, buying dirty goods, selling dirty things, and doing some illegal transactions. Gradually, a prosperous market was formed. Because it was trading in a cemetery, it was called "ghost market!"

Ghosts are invisible in broad daylight, and they also describe the fact that most of the things in this market are shameful!

There are everything sold in the ghost market, including livestock, food, clothing, medicinal materials, weapons... all kinds are complete and the prices are cheap, so it attracts a large number of customers and gathers here day and night. The biggest transaction is: the trading population!

Those victims who have no way to survive sell their children, even their wives, and themselves, just want to have a full meal. People often come here to "Taobao" to buy some beautiful girls and young wives at low prices, and then sell them at high prices, making a lot of money!

Xue Yu guessed that those seven little friends might be taken to the ghost market for sale by human teeth and go around by themselves. If they are lucky, they might be able to save a few!

Take a step back and say that even if you can't find Jin Ya, Hong Xiu and others, you can still find out about the news from Renya. Maybe you can know where they were sold and go to rescue them yourself!

Less gossip and back to the original story, Xue Yu and his friends soon arrived at the ghost market. Before they started looking for someone, they encountered trouble first!

...

"Haha, today is a great day. The little fat sheep is here to come to your door. It's time for us brothers to get rich!"

"The leader looks good. If you send it to your popular husband, you will definitely sell it for a good price. Those rich masters like this!"

Two gangsters blocked the way, one with a big bald head and the other with a pockmarked face, holding a rope in his hands, staring at Xue Yu and others with a smirk, as if staring at a few little lambs, and all their greedy saliva flowed out.

The ghost market is extremely chaotic. Not to mention forcibly kidnapped people, it is common to kill people in broad daylight. After killing, you don’t have to bury them. Just throw them into the mass grave. The government will not ask about it at all. If you want to ask, you can’t find the murderer. This is a place where the strong prey on the weak!

"Ah!--Plop!"

Xue Yu did not answer, a smile appeared on his handsome little face, and then rushed over like lightning, pulled out a dagger from his sleeve, stabbed it hard on the bald rogue's lower abdomen, and stirred it a few times!

The bald rogue fell to the ground, hugged his lower abdomen and howled. As he rolled, his intestines flowed out, and blood was squirting everywhere!

Fortunately, Xue Yu was accurate in his actions (I studied human specimens in college biology class). This knife stabbed the intestine space. It looked scary, but it was not fatal. When I went back and applied red wound medicine, it would be fine if I took care of it for a few months. I would not delay my meals and water in the future!

At the same time, the mouse, the flower snake, the monkey, and the big black all pulled out their daggers and surrounded the rogue. The latter was so scared that his face changed drastically and he collapsed on the ground.

"Bring him on your back, get out, let me see you again, and I will send you to the gates of hell!"

After experiencing the incident of the Tiger Gang, Xue Yu hated the most was human traffickers. He wanted to stab these two scoundrels to death, but after stabbing them to death, the matter became a big deal, delaying his plan to find people and save people. Then he let go of the two scoundrels!

"Yes, young people get out now, get out right away!"

The rogue faced with a scoundrel was like being pardoned. He bowed repeatedly to thank him. He pulled off two handfuls of prickly vegetables (a herb that can stop bleeding and reduce inflammation) from the grave next to him. He rubbed the hand a few times and pasted it on his companion's wounds, and then ran away.

As for going back to find someone to take revenge, he couldn't even think about it, because he obviously felt that these people were not easy to mess with, especially the handsome young man in the lead, who had a strong murderous aura on his body, and he must have had a life on his hands, and more than one or two!

"Boss?"

"Let's go!"

After kicking away two "roadblocking dogs", Xue Yu and others entered the ghost market. Wherever they went, the people around them took the initiative to give up a way, and no one dared to come and provoke them anymore. Instead, they showed fear, even those gangsters were no exception!

As the saying goes, "The soft ones are afraid of the hard ones, and the hard ones are afraid of the arrogant ones." But even the arrogant people are afraid of such desperadoes who disagree with each other. After all, no one's life is not caused by the strong wind, but by eating salt!

...

"Look, take a look, the beautiful and sturdy girl can cook, wash clothes, warm the bed and give birth to babies, and she can take it away with ten taels of silver!

If you think it is expensive, there are still girls here. If you take them home for a few years, you can use them as cattle and horses. It doesn’t cost much food. Just choose one of four taels of silver!"

There are people everywhere in the ghost market, and most of the goods they sell are big girls, little wives, and children. They kneel on the ground one by one. Some look numb, some are trembling, and grass signs are stuck on their heads!

The buyers carefully chose to see if they looked good, whether they were strong or not, whether they had any diseases, and they had to open their mouths to look at their teeth, just like choosing animals!

When you pick the one you like, you hold hands with Renya on the sleeves, bargain with each other, and finally take out the money to take the person away. If you are really short of money, you can also exchange things for it!

Livestock, food, clothing, food, and clothing can be exchanged!

Xue Yu saw with his own eyes that an old farmer exchanged two baskets of water radish for a young wife and happily took her home. The woman did not resist and followed her obediently.

Those who were not picked were despaired, and being bought out meant having a meal and a place to settle down. Staying here would be unpredictable. It is possible to starve to death, to death from illness or to be beaten to death!

Besides, Xue Yu and others stared around with their eyes wide open, but after turning around for seven or eight times, they could not see any sign of their friends.

Xue Yu also prepared pens and ink in advance, and according to his memory, he drew seven sketches, inquired about the news from the people, and was willing to buy back the people on the portrait for a lot of money, but he did not get anything. He said he had never seen them!

Could it be that the man-teeth took away his friends and did not take them to the ghost market for sale, but to sell them to other places?

Or, if you are a step late, your friends have been bought by others?

Or maybe, it's too early for me?

Just as Xue Yu was making random guesses, crying and beatings came not far away!

"Uncle, please give me some stutter. We're hungry, woo!"

"Eat, you know how much food you need to feed your mouth?

Do you know what the price of grain is now? I have sold you a few, and I can’t afford a stone of brown rice. I deserve it if I starve to death. This is a chasing place, and I have saved the effort to throw it away!"

...

It turned out that they were a few children who were sold, who were afraid and hungry, and could not bear it anymore and wanted to ask for stuttering from the human teeth. Not only did they not give it to the human teeth, they also whipped them hard with a whip!

The children were crying loudly. One of the six or seven-year-old girls had already fallen to the ground, with their little face facing the ground. I don’t know if they were knocked out or hungry!

"Little rabbit, stop!"

Xue Yu rushed over with a quick step, pushed the man's teeth a big face, then picked up the little girl, wiped off the soil on her face, and looked at it carefully!

He looks about six or seven years old, and there are two blood marks on his face. He must have just been whipped and has already fainted. His facial features are very cute and he has a bit of a little rabbit's shadow. Unfortunately, it's not the little rabbit himself, but a strange little girl!

"Who dares to care about my nostalgia? Let's not take it off... Oh, hey, you, do you fall in love with this little girl?

You have such a good vision. This little girl is smart and smart. She will definitely be a little beauty in the future. She has lost weight in the past few days and will be fine if she goes back to raise her. She originally wanted to sell four taels of silver, but now how can you take it away in three or five?"

After being pushed into a big shot, the man was furious and got up and wanted to settle the score with the culprit. However, after seeing who it was, he immediately changed into a smile. He had just seen Xue Yu pulling his sword and stabbing someone fiercely, and knew that this young master was not easy to mess with.

"Okay, I bought it!"

Xue Yu was very disappointed when he found out that he had recognized the wrong person, but when he saw the little girl's pitiful appearance, he couldn't help but feel sympathy. He took out a piece of silver from his arms and threw it to the human teeth. He picked up the little girl and prepared to leave, but he didn't take a step!

"Master, you are OK, please buy me too!"

"There are also young people, please show your compassion. The young people have eaten within three days, woof!"

The other children rushed over, hugged Xue Yu's feet tightly, and begged hard. For them, they could only survive if they were bought, and there was only a dead end to them!

"I've asked for all these, how much does it cost in total?"

"Five girls, each with three taels of silver, three boys, each with four taels of silver, a total of twenty-nine taels of silver. The younger one will give you a fraction of the money, and twenty-nine taels of silver is enough!"

"Okay, deal!"

After paying the money, Xue Yu led the children to a stall selling porridge and asked each of them to drink a bowl of hot porridge. As for the unconscious little girl, she could only feed her spoonful at a time.

The children ate very cleanly and even added the bottom of the bowl several times. Obviously they were not full yet. They looked at Xue Yu with pitiful eyes, but Xue Yu stopped buying porridge for them.

It’s not that they are reluctant to spend money, but that these children are too hungry. Once they eat too much, their stomachs will be unable to bear it and they will be at risk of being overwhelmed!

First drink a bowl of porridge to moisten the stomach and intestines, exercise it, and then gradually increase your appetite to ensure safety. This is the experience of many years of hunger!

"Let's go, go back to the mountains, we have a few more friends!"

…………

In the days that followed, Xue Yu came to the ghost market every day, but he never found Jin Ya, Hongxiu and others. There was no news. He came with hope and left with disappointment!

However, every time Xue Yu left the ghost market, he would buy a few children from the human teeth. In fact, Xue Yu knew that he was unable to take care of these children in his current situation, but he would feel soft-hearted every time he saw them and couldn't help but buy them!

Those people are also hateful. Every time they see Xue Yu coming, they will deliberately whip the sold child and force Xue Yu to buy it at a high price. In this way, they actually bought more than 60 children!

A large part of them was sent back to their parents, and a small part, a total of sixteen boys and six girls, remained in the dilapidated temple, some of which were orphans and homeless.

Some people have relatives but are unwilling to go back because once they go back, they will be sold for the second time. It is better to stay in the dilapidated temple!

As the number of people continued to increase, the silver in Xue Yu's pocket quickly decreased, and soon there was not much left!
Chapter completed!
