Chapter 99 Human Trafficking

After saying this, Master Wangyou waved his sleeve, and everyone felt that the sky suddenly darkened, and a building ship that was a hundred meters long and several stories high was suspended in the air.

The precious light flows, the exquisite appearance and the huge size make it clear from a distance that it is not an ordinary thing in the world.

The Cloud-Piercing Treasure Ship is a well-known traveling magic weapon in the world of immortal cultivation in Dayan Kingdom. It contains Xumi Space, and its moving speed is just a sliver lower than the Cloud Pulling Technique used by Master Jiedan. The most important thing is that it can carry multiple people at the same time.

It requires spiritual power to activate directly, and it can be activated by placing a spiritual stone.

It consumes a lot of money, and taking this thing out shows the Yuwen family's determination to fight quickly.

The cloud-piercing treasure ship rose into the sky and instantly turned into a stream of light and disappeared into the sky.

Because there was a formation hidden outside the treasure ship, even if there was such a big movement, no people in Hexi City noticed it. Only a few people looked at the line of clouds connecting the sky with some confusion.

"Wangyou has left. The evil monks hiding in Hexi City have started to cause trouble. It's time to go out for a walk. Let's clean up the small fish first."

In the quiet room of the small courtyard, Chai Jiangcui slowly opened his eyes. After a night of meditation, he just sorted out his insights. If he wants to truly understand, he still needs to find an opportunity to retreat for a while.

Chai Jiangcui didn't disturb anyone when she went out this time, not even Bai Yuan. She left the Yuwen family's mansion in a few blinks and disappeared into the crowd of people rushing to the morning market.



In Huaishu Square, Yu Wenjie patrolled the streets vigilantly with his sword in hand, scanning the passers-by with his eyes as sharp as a goshawk. Even the naughtiest vendors who saw this man would obediently lower their heads and did not dare to look at him.

As a branch of the Yuwen family, although Yuwen Jie had no talent for cultivation, he relied on his family background to acquire good martial arts skills, and was able to work as a head catcher in the yamen.

Yesterday, Uncle Tang, who is the master of the yamen, told them to step up patrols and report them immediately if they find any strange behavior, which may be an evil heretic.

However, compared to Yu Wenjie's caution, the eight patrolmen following him had their eyes shining, and they were all eager to fight.

"Boss, tell me, do you think the reward promised by Master Shifu is worth it?

Tsk tsk, twenty taels of gold, I have never seen so much money in my eight lives. If we make it, I can go home and ask for a wife!"

One of the young men with a relatively close relationship couldn't help but ask Yuwen Jie for confirmation. The reward was so generous that it was as rich as a dream.

When Yuwen Jie heard this, he glared at the young man fiercely and said in a slightly warning tone:

"Huzi, I know you have a good tracking ability, but don't act recklessly. The master wants us to find no ordinary murderer. If something goes wrong, the lives of our brothers will be lost. We need more money."

People only have the opportunity to spend time in the Yang world."

"Hey, you know, I know, this is just a question. It's not my first day patrolling the streets. Everyone knows that the higher the bounty, the more dangerous it is."

Seeing the serious look on his boss's face, the young man named Huzi immediately put away his slightly excited expression and nodded with a smile on his face.

But even so, the light of expectation in Huzi's eyes still did not fade away, not only for him, but also for several patrolmen behind him.

Since ancient times, money has attracted people's hearts. Moreover, the task assigned by the master is only to provide clues, not to ask them to go up and fight the murderer. There is still a chance to give it a try.

Seeing this, Yu Wenjie could only sigh helplessly and secretly prayed that this bad luck would not happen to him.

He had also heard some stories from his elders about evil demons and heretics. He also knew in his heart that the person who could make the usually calm and composed Uncle Tang so solemn was definitely not comparable to those of the lowest sects in the world.

Orthodox evil arts cannot be broken by a soak of boy's urine or a few pots of black dog's blood. If it were so easy, there wouldn't be such a long period of confrontation between good and evil.

Halfway through the patrol, Yu Wenjie suddenly met a middle-aged fat man driving a donkey cart. This fat man was the housekeeper of a wealthy merchant in Huaishu Fang, and he usually treated them, the head-catching patrolmen who patrolled the streets.

Filial piety, so the relationship between the two is quite familiar.

The middle-aged fat man saw Yu Wenjie and hurriedly got out of the car and greeted him warmly:

"Master Yuwen, what are you busy with? Oh, with all of you here, the security of our Huaishufang is better than that of other neighbors. It's just a joke, let's use it as the brothers' drinking money today."

Yuwen Jie calmly took the broken silver from his hand, clasped his fists with a smile and said:

"You're welcome, Butler Zhao. It is my duty to patrol the streets. Wearing these clothes will ensure everyone's safety!"

"That's right. But although the matter is the same, the people who handle it are different, so the difference is still very big."

Being able to pass himself off as a housekeeper, Zhao was also a shrewd person. He could catch what Yu Wenjie said casually, and not only that, he also flattered him a little.

Yu Wenjie seemed to be very pleased with this. If it weren't for the time for greetings, he would have wanted to continue chatting with Butler Zhao for a few more words.

But just when he was about to say goodbye to Butler Zhao and continue patrolling the streets, he suddenly noticed three timid young men sitting on the donkey cart.

These three young men had sallow faces and thin muscles, and their eyes were full of confusion and fear. It was obvious from a glance that they had just bought them from a dental store.

The Dayan Kingdom does not prohibit the sale of human beings, so many servants of wealthy families are bought from the dental shops. These people have signed a deed of sale, and it can be said that their wealth and life are completely in the hands of their masters, and their situation is very miserable.

After looking at it for a moment, Yu Wenjie withdrew his gaze and joked casually:

"Old Zhao, you are buying three servants this time. They are still healthy young men. The price is probably not cheap, right?"

"Hey, you mean these three? The price is really not expensive. The three of them add up to only five taels of silver. It is said that there was a famine in Youzhou, and many people came to escape the disaster. Go to Yaxing and have a look. This kind of

There’s a lot of stuff…”

Speaking of these three newly purchased servants, Old Zhao couldn't help but feel a little proud in his tone.

Normally, if you wanted to buy three young and healthy servants, you would have to pay at least fifty taels of silver. Today, you really got a big bargain.

"Fifty taels? It's so cheap! It seems things are really hard over there in Youzhou."

"Who says it's not the case? According to the old man from Yahang, there is even a tragic situation of cannibalism in Youzhou!"

"The year of disaster is so unfavorable..."



Yu Wenjie was also a little surprised by the price. A few days ago, he went to Yaxing to find a maid for his mother, and it cost him twenty taels of silver.

After bidding farewell to Butler Zhao, Yu Wenjie still had a vague feeling that something was wrong with his many years of experience as an errand, but he couldn't tell where the dissonance lay.

Everyone walked forward and passed by the Earth Temple. They saw a beggar not far away lying on the roadside and sunbathing.

The beggar was half-clothed, with big eye guano hanging on his face. A long string of mucus was rising and falling with his breathing, and a strange smell could be smelled from a distance.

Huzi looked at the unkempt beggar and flapped his nose, with a trace of disgust in his eyes. He raised his foot and kicked the ground casually, and a pebble flew out and hit the beggar's broken bowl impartially.

.

There was just a crisp sound of "clang", and the broken bowl with countless chips was completely shattered. The stone continued to hit the beggar, and the beggar woke up with his eyes closed.
