After rebirth, she discovered the space golden finger
Chapter 305 Slave Market
In the city of desire——
As soon as Pei Yun and his party entered the city, they were surrounded by a group of little demons at the city gate. A gray fox came up to them attentively, raised its paw and said flatteringly:
"Is this your first time in Desire City? Do you need me to introduce you and show you the way? All I need is seventy low-grade demon crystals..."
"My Lord, I only want sixty low-grade demon crystals..."
"grown ups……"
A group of demon cultivators with low cultivation levels were soliciting customers at the city gate, which was similar to some cities in the world of cultivation.
Pei Yun and the others were all new here, so after thinking about it, she decided to choose this gray fox to lead the way for them...
"My lords, this Yucheng is mainly divided into Upper Street and Lower Street. Upper Street is usually where noble and powerful demon cultivators often hang out. The things sold in the shops along the street are relatively expensive..."
Pei Yun looked in the direction the gray fox pointed and saw that the main street was indeed wide and clean. The houses and pavilions on both sides were similar to those in the world of cultivation, and the demons coming and going were of high level of cultivation.
"The Lower Second Street on the left is where independent cultivators like me or weaker demon cultivators gather. However, this street is usually very lively. Many demon cultivators will set up stalls to sell their goods. Moreover, the cost of living in this street is much lower than the previous street..."
"Do you live on Lower Second Street?" Pei Yun looked at the scene on Lower Second Street curiously.
The Lower Second Street was not wide, and there were many stalls set up by demons on both sides, making the street seem even more crowded. However, the number of demon cultivators here was obviously several times that of the Upper Street. There were so many demons that the whole street was bustling with people and the sounds of hawking were endless...
"Yes, sir. The beds for rent in the rooms on Lower Second Street are relatively cheap. I usually earn some demon crystals by guiding the adults..." The gray fox bent over and rubbed his paws embarrassedly.
Xiaobai in Pei Yun's arms stared at the gray fox's constantly shaking tail with her big round eyes. Her little paws couldn't help but get restless. When she saw Pei Yun looking down at her, she meowed guiltily.
"Then where is this place?" Pei Yun pointed to the street on the right, "This place looks quite lively as well."
"This is a slave market. If you want to buy slaves, you can go to Slave Street..."
"Slaves?!" Pei Yun was shocked, his face suddenly darkened, "Are all the slaves sold here human?"
"Most of them are human, but there are also half-demons and demons, and some food ingredients..." Gray Fox didn't notice Pei Yun's anger, and recommended as usual, "Please look at the statue in the distance, sir. Inside the statue is the most famous restaurant in Yu City - Taotie Restaurant. The food ingredients inside are all sourced from Slave Street..."
"Pei Yun." Seeing Pei Yun's eyes slightly red, Luo Rufeng could not suppress the anger in his heart. He stepped forward, held her hand, and looked at her with concern.
"I'm fine, Your Excellency." Pei Yun shook his head at him.
She calmed down and pretended to be interested, "I... love food the most in my life. I want to take a good look around this Yucheng and stay for a few days. I just need to buy some slaves. You lead the way to the slave market..."
"Okay!" Gray Fox happily walked in front to lead the way, and Pei Yun and his group followed behind him.
The black dragon looked at the statue in the distance and asked curiously, "Is this statue the legendary Taotie?"
"Of course. Lord Taotie is the great demon worshipped by my Yu City. Even the city lord has to pay homage when he sees the statue." said the gray fox.
"Does your Yu City have a city lord? Who is it?" Feng Yi asked.
"This... How would I know?"
Pei Yun was in the mood to listen to them at first, but when he saw the human being locked in a cage in front of him, his heart gradually became depressed. He pursed his lips and looked over without saying a word...
These humans were dressed in rags, some were naked, and there was only numbness and despair in their eyes. When Pei Yun looked at them, they did not show any reaction of wanting to survive, as if they had already accepted their fate.
The further you go in, the more foul the smell becomes. Dozens of people are locked up in a small cage. They have sallow faces and thin bodies. They are all ordinary mortals. The slave owners don't even call them slaves, but just food.
"Sir, look at these good stuff..."
"Sir, these are what I just found in the cultivation world. They are all human beings in the foundation-building stage..."
The demon cultivator who was selling slaves was enthusiastically selling them to Pei Yun.
"Tell them that I want all these humans!" Pei Yun pointed at all the humans imprisoned in cages and said in a heroic manner.
"Sir, you're going to buy all this?!" Gray Fox said in disbelief, "There are... several thousand humans here..."
"Not only the slaves, but also those...food ingredients, I want them too."
"This, this..." Gray Fox was stunned by Pei Yun's generosity.
"By the way, is there a place to buy a house in Yucheng?"
"Of course, sir, do you want to buy it on the upper street?"
"That's right, first decide on these slaves and food, and then come to pick them up after buying the house..." Pei Yun said as he took out a storage bag and casually threw a piece of top-grade demon crystal to the gray fox.
Gray Fox came back to his senses with a start, took the demon crystal excitedly, and said: "My lord, I will take you to buy slaves. I have dealt with all the slave owners here, and I guarantee that I can give you a fair price!"
Pei Yun and his companions walked past each stall and paid the deposit. The slave owners looked at them as if they were meeting a wealthy man. Their eyes lit up and they fawned over Pei Yun...
The humans in the cages also noticed the movement, knowing that their fate would be in Pei Yun's hands. Most of them couldn't help but look at Pei Yun, some begging and expecting, some nervous and fearful, some seeking relief...
"Sister, I'm hungry... Can we leave the cage now? Someone has bought us..."
In the cage, a half-naked little boy was lying in the arms of a girl who was not much older than him. He looked weak all over and only stared at Pei Yundao with his innocent black eyes.
The girl hugged the little boy tightly, her eyes filled with tears of fear, and she covered her mouth not daring to cry. She knew that as food, if she was bought by the monster, she would be dead soon. That was how their parents died.
……
In another cage, there was a family of five. The oldest one was a cultivator in the early stage of foundation building. Their whole family was plundered from the world of cultivation by demon cultivators.
"There is a barrier seal in the cage and we can't escape. We will have a chance once we get out of the cage. Although our spiritual powers are sealed, I will try to break it. Then I will self-destruct my dantian and you will take the opportunity to escape..." The old man transmitted the message to his two sons.
“Dad! The monster that bought us must be at least in the Transformation Stage. We can’t escape…”
"Dad, don't be impulsive. Let's take a long-term view. Even if we escape the control of this monster, we can't return to the world of cultivation. We must first find a way to go home..."
The old man's two sons tried to persuade him. The woman beside them was holding a baby who was breathing weakly. Her eyes were dull and filled with despair.
……
After Pei Yun paid the deposit, she asked the Four Blue Star Demons and Feng Yi to keep an eye on the place to prevent the slave owners from doing anything. She and Luo Rufeng followed the Gray Fox to the upper street to buy a house.
"Are you planning to settle these humans in the house?" Luo Rufeng asked in a voice transmission.
"Well, let's buy a big house and temporarily place them here. When we finish our business in the Demon Realm Mountain, we can take them back with us when we return to the Cultivation Realm!" Pei Yun said, "It would be fine if we didn't meet them, but now that we have, I can't just turn a blind eye..."
"You did the right thing. Even if you didn't do it, I would have done it." Luo Rufeng agreed.
The two of them looked at several houses for sale and finally chose a house with the largest area and located in a secluded area. This house plus the purchase of several thousand human beings was worth only a few hundred thousand high-quality demon crystals, which was a drop in the bucket compared to the wealth Pei Yun obtained from searching for dragon caves.
Afterwards, Pei Yun brought the thousands of humans he bought from the slave market to his own house. This spectacular scene also attracted many demons to watch.
"Hey! Why did this lord buy so many slaves and food?"
"That's right, and most of them are mortals. It would be a waste to buy them back..."
"Of course I buy them to eat! This lady said she loves delicious food the most!" The gray fox completed the task of leading the way and happily took the bag of demon crystals given to him by Pei Yun. There were one hundred top-grade demon crystals in it. It was a crazy profit!
Not only that, he brought such a big customer to those slave owners, and those slave owners gave him kickbacks. This one business deal was equivalent to his annual income.
As soon as they entered the house, Pei Yun asked the four Blue Star demons to close the door tightly. She also set up a magic circle around the house. After everything was arranged, she went to see those humans.
Although the backyard was large, it was still very crowded with thousands of people standing here. Thousands of pairs of eyes looked anxiously at Pei Yun and others sitting in the front row.
They had been whipped by the slave owners and taught some rules, so they didn't dare to speak at this moment. They had heard rumors that Pei Yun liked delicious food before, and now they were trembling with fear. For a moment, there was silence all around...
Pei Yun saw that most of them were very weak and obviously hungry. Some children could not even stand under the scorching sun and could only kneel. They were dirty and had scars on their bodies, looking so pitiful that it was heartbreaking.
She didn't waste any words and directly took out hundreds of bags of spiritual rice from the space. She turned around and asked the black dragon: "Have you bought all the fabrics?"
"I bought it. You can't buy ready-made clothes here. You can only buy some fabrics."
Pei Yun nodded and said loudly to everyone: "Everyone, it looks like everyone is hungry. Let's eat first. There is rice here. We need a few women who can cook to help. Everyone will have food to eat. Don't fight for it. Anyone who fights will be killed directly..."
Upon hearing this, the thousands of human beings present were stunned. They didn't expect that the first thing Pei Yun did was to give them food!
"Master..., are you really going to give us food?" some people bravely asked in disbelief.
"Of course, you all should eat first. Only after you have eaten can you do anything."
"Thank you, sir!"
"...Thank you, sir."
The clever human beings knelt down first, and then led the people around them to kneel down together. Thousands of people kowtowed to Pei Yun and thanked him: "Thank you, sir."
