The Princess of Northern Land

"Wait until I wash my hands first." The old man agreed.

After the old man washed his hands, Ziyin took a little guy by the hand and followed him out of the door, while Zige and Guo Huiniang continued to pick beans at home.

The village was very lively. Since the sun was already setting in the west, a group of soldiers escorted a large number of prisoners to stop. These prisoners, both male and female, were crying quietly, but no one dared to make a noise. Regardless of gender, they were all held together by iron chains. They probably had no chance to escape even if they wanted to.

Children over seven or eight years old were strung together and sat on the ground in fear, not daring to move.

"Be honest." The escorting soldiers scolded the women who were bowing their heads and crying.

"If you are not honest, I will whip you to death." A man who looked like a leader came over and whipped the crowd.

Suddenly, the prisoners started to make a fuss. You pushed me and I scolded you. Especially the person who cried earlier became the target of everyone's anger.

"Still noisy?" Another whip was passed.

The people in the village gasped when they saw it. They could clearly see that the whip had barbs on it, and it would hurt people when it was struck. Unexpectedly, the clothes of the person who was beaten were all torn, and even the blood was soaked out.

"Stop." Seeing that the escorts were whipping weak women, several men seemed particularly excited, and some of the children stared at the leader with clenched fists and hatred.

"What, you want to hit the military master?" The man became more aggressive and whipped several men who were ready to make a move.

"Stop fighting, don't fight." The woman cried even harder.

"It's awesome enough. Since you are not honest, the military master will let you experience it." Seeing the villagers watching, the leader became more fierce and the expression on his face became excited.

Next, there was another flurry of excitement. Although there were some dissatisfied prisoners, because of the iron chains, they only suffered the loss.

"No, I guess you don't have a few days left to live. If you have the ability, someone will buy you. You didn't expect that the mighty head of the escort agency would end up like this, right?" The leader laughed and looked at it. The person who fell to the ground.

Only then did Lin Ziyin realize that some of the men in the group were the most seriously injured.

"Injustice." Several young men muttered with their eyes closed, and some of them remained silent. Maybe it's because I've been hurt so much along the way that I've become numb.

"Grandpa, can these people be bought and sold?" Lin Ziyin's heart moved when he heard the guard's words.

The old man nodded, "They are felons. They were originally sent to the border to serve as laborers. In all likelihood, they will not survive. Our Fengcheng is originally a northern land, and the population is not allowed to move around. Some of them are rich." If a family needs to buy some servants or thin horses, they can choose some among these people."

Lin Ziyin's eyes lit up.

"The people who were bought have tattoos on their faces and will be slaves for generations to come. But for them, this is an opportunity to survive." The old man sighed.

"Grandpa, I want to buy some people from it." Lin Ziyin looked at the old man and said.

"Huh?" The old man glanced at her, thought for a while and said, "That's fine, it can be considered as giving them a chance to survive. However, there are also some heinous people among these people. If they don't choose well, they will cause chaos in the family. .”

He wanted Lin Ziyin to be careful.

Lin Ziyin nodded, "I understand, so I want grandpa to help me take a look."

"Okay." The old man hesitated again, and then agreed. After all, he saved several lives, so he could barely be considered a good deed.
