"Look at what you said. Who hasn't been a child? Besides, it's not a bad thing for them to be bought as child brides. Women are just for giving birth to children. Whoever they give birth to is not a child. In this day and age, how can one have a child? Having enough food in a place is the greatest blessing. There is no need to pay so much attention to it. If you want to blame them, they can only blame themselves for not being born at the right time."
Nihao has long been accustomed to this and feels very accustomed to it.
"I was born at the wrong time..."
Ma Tao was stunned for a while, yes, these four words can definitely sum up everyone, but no one is born at the right time.
"Can you prepare a cage for me?"
After thinking for a while, Ma Tao said this.
"Cage? What do you want a cage for?"
Unexpectedly, when he first heard this, the short and tall boy in front of him suddenly changed his face. He quickly took two steps back and looked at Ma Tao with doubtful eyes.
"Is it necessary to train slaves regardless of gender?"
Ma Tao looked at the little girls and then at Nihao.
After hearing this, Nihao took two or three steps back, stammered and looked at him with a panicked expression, "You...what do you want to do?"
Ma Tao smiled and said, "I have an enemy who is imprisoned where I park my car. Is it okay to use him as live bait and send him to training?"
Hearing this, Nihao let out a sigh of relief. He thought that the guy in front of him was planning to tie him up and send him to the underground imperial city. He patted his chest lightly and said, "Of course you can do this."
Ma Tao no longer hesitated, took out four more cigarettes and placed them next to Nihao's two cigarettes and said, "Now, prepare a cage for me, right away."
Nihao's eyes were fixed on those six cigarettes, and he put them all away in one handful. He said without thinking, "Okay! Give me five minutes!"
As he spoke, he opened his short legs and ran out of the tent.
There are a lot of wooden cages on the black market. These are used to contain people and beasts. They are usually recycled and reused because there are always people who need them.
Not long after, Nihao ran back and said, "Okay, I've found a person, a cage, and a car for you. Do you want to leave now?"
Ma Tao nodded and left the tent.
As expected, there was a wooden cage for adults outside the door, but it was a little old and worn out. Ma Tao didn't care about it.
This wooden cage was erected on a cart. The people in charge of the cart were two coolies wearing rags. Their appearance was even worse than that cage. They were obviously the lowest-ranking people in the black market. I just looked up. Ma Tao was scolded by Nihao who came out later, and everyone lowered their heads.
The little girl was not even taller than the waistband of their pants, and she scolded these two tall men who were about 1.8 meters tall. Ma Tao was curious and narrowed his eyes, and then he noticed the two men responsible for pushing the cart. All the strong coolies wear a collar.
Remote control bomb!
Ma Tao had seen this thing before. He had personally taken it off Su Lanxi's neck. How could he forget it.
No wonder these two strong men didn't dare to say anything. It turned out to be a restrained beast. Without a remote control, no one dared to dismantle this thing. Once it exploded, it would be no joke.
This kind of situation must be everywhere in the black market. Ma Tao couldn't control it and didn't want to, so he turned around and left.
"Quick! Keep up! They are all lazy, so lazy that they will die."
Nihao had already climbed onto the trolley first. He took a branch from somewhere in his hand and slapped it on a coolie in charge of the trolley. The coolie's back immediately twitched, and a blood-red mark immediately appeared. Emerging, he remained silent, pulled up the rope on the cart, and stepped to follow Ma Tao. The wooden trolley started to make noises.
"Move quickly"
Nihao in the car waved the branch in his hand again and shouted.
Ma Tao turned on his watch and looked at it. It was already ten minutes after sunset in the afternoon. There was no news on the watch. He then called out, "Do you have any news? I'm starting to go back now."
As soon as Ma Tao finished speaking, Xiao Jinzi's voice sounded, "I found nothing. This ghost place is very strange. I want to get Lan Xi..."
"If you have anything to say, go back and tell me, there are others around me."
Ma Tao quickly stopped his words and reminded him.
There was no movement in the watch. Since Ma Tao said there was someone around him, it meant there was a stranger, and there was no danger, otherwise his tone would not have been so calm.
Ma Tao didn't intend to speak anymore and walked ahead and headed straight to the parking lot.
The visibility of the black market located in the forest is not good. The trees will block 90% of the sunlight. It is already dark. As soon as the sun goes down, it becomes darker. Fire pots and lights are used in many places to illuminate it. Visibility is extremely low.
Ma Tao could still find the way back to the parking lot, but it was a little difficult to see because of the light. But fortunately, Dwarf Zini was there. This was a living map. He could find the way back to the parking lot with his eyes closed, so he went back to the parking lot. He showed the way, and the only thing they needed was for Ma Tao to show them the specific location to park after entering the parking lot.
When Ma Tao came back with this prison van, Gao Han had already arrived. He was waiting by the side of the 01 tank from a distance. When he saw Ma Tao coming back with a prison van, he was very confused.
This woman was born with night eyes and could see things in the dark. The darker the place, the more advantageous it was for her. It was understandable that she could come back first.
"Xiao Jinzi hasn't come back yet?"
Ma Tao looked at him first and then asked.
"not yet"
Gao Han shook his head, then looked at the prison car that Ma Tao had brought back, "You brought this thing back because you planned to..."
Halfway through his words, Gao Han suddenly felt as if he was being touched by someone on his leg, but he and Ma Tao were the only ones around him, and Ma Tao was about a foot away from him. When he lowered his head, he saw that there was actually a baby hanging on his leg. The black furry ball's expression immediately changed.
"what!!!"
With a loud shout, Gao Han kicked him out.
Hearing Nihao scream, he was kicked eight feet away. After rolling around for several times, he finally got up and wailed, "Oh, Nihao, I..."
"What's good, who's better than you two! How dare you touch my thigh! Believe it or not, I'll kill you."
When Gao Han saw that this was still a human being who had climbed up, he let out a sigh of relief, but the anger in his heart remained.
"Who touched your thigh? I wanted to say hello to you, but you couldn't see me, so I just patted you. I didn't want to..."
Ni Hao was about to cry but had no tears, and she was very angry even when she got up.
"you……"
Gao Han was speechless and didn't really know how to talk.
To say that Gao Han was indeed startled by him just now and subconsciously kicked him out before he could see clearly, it was indeed his own fault.
"Okay, hello, my friend didn't mean it. I'm giving you a few cigarettes. Do you think this is okay?"
Ma Tao quickly thought of an idea.
The businessman was so unscrupulous when he saw the profit, the nun lying on the ground rolled his eyes when he heard this, and then he stretched out his short five fingers and said "five"
But Ma Tao would not be blackmailed by him like this, saying, "Three at most, otherwise this kick will be in vain. After all, you have touched someone else's body."
"Okay, okay, three will be three."
Ni Hao didn't insist upon hearing this and quickly got up from the ground.
Ma Tao looked at Ji Zinihao and the two coolies and said, "You guys wait here."
Then, Ma Tao took Gao Han aside and told everything he had found out. The two exchanged the information they knew. It turned out that Gao Han also knew about the existence of this underground imperial city, and even I also went to the mercenary tent that Ma Tao didn't have time to visit. Unfortunately, the entrance to the underground imperial city was extremely tight, making it difficult for outsiders with insufficient identity to enter. I also found nothing in the mercenary tent. Information about the three mercenaries Nothing was found. Just when he was feeling a little frustrated, news about Ma Tao came.
"Are you saying you plan to sneak into the underground imperial city by training slaves?"
After listening to Ma Tao's thoughts, Gao Han fell into deep thought.
"There is no other way. The only place we haven't checked yet is Su Lanxi. It's very likely that Su Lanxi is in the underground imperial city. I must go there."
Ma Tao's eyes were firm and his fist clenched loudly.
"Going in a moment? Don't you wait for Xiao Jinzi?"
Gao Han looked at him and knew that he was worried that Su Lanxi was in a hurry.
"No more waiting, just leave him outside to take care of him."
After Ma Tao finished speaking, he turned his head and glanced at Nihao and the two coolies in the distance, and then walked directly to the 03 ambulance.
"Which one of them do we take?"
asked Gao Han who was following behind.
"With a girl"
Ma Tao's eyes turned cold and his tone was cold.
The ambulance door opened, and An Ruo inside was carefully guarding Chen Meng and the waiter. The waiter had woken up, his face was pale, and his mouth was blocked. When he saw Ma Tao, he whined and wanted to speak. Ma Tao Ignoring him, he walked straight past him, looked at Chen Meng who was hungry and mentally depressed, stretched out his hand and pulled her out.
The woman was so hungry that she had no strength at all. She let Ma Tao drag her without saying a word, and was dragged out of the 03 ambulance like a dead dog.
An Ruo watched Ma Tao dragging the woman away in confusion. She didn't realize it until Gao Han whispered in her ear for a while.
"What! But hasn't Ma Tao already agreed..."
After listening to Gao Han's words, An Ruo looked shocked. Just as she was about to speak, she saw the waiter lying on the side staring at him and closing his mouth quickly.
Gao Han looked at this girl who didn't understand the dangers of people's hearts and shook his head helplessly, told her to be optimistic about the waiter and got out of the car again.
Ma Tao did promise them a way to live, but the prerequisite was to find Su Lanxi. Now that Su Lanxi has not been found, how can he give them this way of life.
Throwing Chen Meng, who was already exhausted from hunger, to the side of the prison car, Ma Tao glanced at her indifferently, and then said to the short Nihao, "That's her."
Nihao obviously often does live bait trading. He jumped out of the prison car with the branch, then came to Chen Meng's side and grabbed her head with his hands to look at her. He couldn't help but clicked his lips twice and said, "Wow." , Hey, hey, he has a very nice face, good stuff, good stuff.”
Then, the little boy slapped Chen Meng's thighs and feet twice with a branch, then stretched out his hand to pull open the collar of Chen Meng's chest and looked inside. Then he was suddenly stunned, and his face changed. In less than a second, In the time, it returned to its original state.
"Full breasts and round legs, good product, come on, loosen the ties and load the car!!"
Ni Hao quickly jumped out of the car and ordered the two coolies to untie Chen Meng's rope.
Ma Tao and Gao Han didn't say anything. The woman no longer had the physical strength to struggle. Even if she was untied, she didn't have the strength to escape, so she was put into the wooden cage.
Ma Tao looked at the sky and could already see the stars. He was worried and used his watch to contact him again, "Xiao Jinzi, where are you?"
"Brother Tao, I'm lost and I'm looking for the way! I should...should find it soon."
Xiao Jinzi on the other side of the watch was panting and obviously anxious.
Ma Tao and Gao Han looked at each other, and when Gao Han shook his head, Ma Tao said, "Don't worry, just go back to the parking lot to meet An Ruo, and then wait for my news."
"Ah! It's okay, I...I should have found it soon, hey? Where is this??"
In the watch, Xiao Jinzi's doubtful voice once again told Ma Tao that this kid must have been lost again.
Seeing that the woman had been loaded into the car and locked, Nihao ran over and asked, "Um, should we go to the Imperial City now?"
"I can go by myself. You can leave now."
Ma Tao looked at him and said.
"I'm leaving? Are you sure, if I leave, you won't be able to enter the imperial city?"
The little nigga Nihao in front of him stood there and hugged his arms, speaking with an expression as if he was a rare commodity.
"Why?"
Ma Tao said doubtfully.
"Without the introduction of me, a local businessman, the underground black market will not accept you, so without me, your work will be in vain."
Nihao replied with a smile.
Ma Tao was dubious about what he said, with an attitude of preferring to believe it, so he had to believe it.
"Then let's go"
After saying that, Ma Tao nodded and started to leave. Gao Han immediately followed. When Nihao saw him, he quickly ran in front of the two of them and stretched out his hand to stop Ma Tao.
"She...she...she is going too. I can only bring one person in."
Nihao said hurriedly.
"Why?"
Ma Tao was stunned.
"That's the underground imperial city. How much power do you think I have? Carrying one attendant is already the limit. How can I bring two of them? The guards there are not fools either."
Nihao looked at them with a troubled expression.
"In that case, you stay here and wait for Xiao Jinzi, and I'll go in first."
When Ma Tao heard this, he looked at Gao Han and then said.
"Can you do it alone?"
Gao Han was a little worried.
"Don't worry, I'm not going to fight, I'm just going to confirm."
Ma Tao replied.
"Okay, stay safe."
Gao Han thought for a while and said no more.
The so-called underground imperial city is actually an underground palace hidden underground. It is a three-story underground structure spreading from the middle to both sides. The entrance is located in the center of the entire black market. It is similar to the underground passage of a parking lot and extends downward. There are guards at the entrance to check the slope, and not even a fly can get in.
Because I had Ni to lead the way, and the two coolies worked often and knew the route well, the way back was very fast.
It took less than half an hour for everyone to arrive at the entrance of the underground imperial city. The wooden prison car was stopped by the guard at the door.
"Hey! Hey! Hey! It's me, it's me"
Nihao quickly jumped out of the car, raised his hands and ran over with a smile.
"Ah haha? Hello, hahaha"
The guards who were nearby obviously knew this little man. They reached out and touched his head twice. The other guards also reached out and touched him a few times. This seemed to be their unique greeting to this little man. However, Nihao was not angry at all, and still smiled and talked to them with his head raised.
"What? Is there another disobedient live bait coming?"
The leader should be a little boss. When he saw a woman in the cage, he put his hand in and started touching her.
"Isn't that right? She has been hungry for several days and she is still not honest."
Ni Hao quickly garbled a few sentences.
The little boss was feeling good when he suddenly saw Ma Tao's face changed and said, "Who are you!"
Ma Tao said nothing, lowered his head, pretending to be frightened.
"He...he is the new guy our boss asked to take care of. He is responsible for checking out the shops and stalls. This time I brought him to recognize the door and get to know a few people."
Nihao quickly ran over with her short legs and explained.
"newcomer?"
The little boss looked at Ma Tao for a while, and then said, "The equipment and weapons on him are pretty good."
Ma Tao was suddenly startled and immediately realized that his attire was inappropriate. He was now wearing an iron suit, an iron helmet on his head, a semi-automatic rifle on his back, and a tactical vest. This equipment was by no means a groveling master. He thought Here, Ma Tao decisively raised his head and looked at the little leader, then smiled slightly.
"Thanks to my boss's care and respect for me, he gave me this equipment. However, compared with you, I am just a child."
Ma Tao's words were neither condescending nor arrogant, but they were profound. They not only named the source of this equipment, but also stopped the looming thoughts in the little boss's eyes.
Sure enough, when he heard what Ma Tao said, the little boss's face paused. He obviously didn't want to offend the big boss in Nihao. Then he smiled and said, "That's right, other people's will always be other people's, and one day they will be taken away." Want to go back”
"Ah...well, can we go in?"
Nihao trotted up to the two of them and quickly interjected.
The little boss withdrew his hand from Chen Meng's body in the cage, and then casually slapped the mouths of the two coolies in front of Ma Tao. The force was so strong that blood was drawn from the corners of their mouths.
"These two dogs are so annoying"
The little boss looked at Ma Tao playfully and said.
This sentence is not only talking about these two coolies, but also seems to be talking about Ma Tao and Ni Hao.
Ma Tao said nothing. Seeing this, the little boss smiled and said, "Go in."
Ni Hao quickly ordered the two beaten coolies to pull the cart into the underground imperial city.
Just like that, the first level has been passed.
Naturally, the entire underground imperial city will not be limited to this one level. After walking down for more than ten meters along the path illuminated by braziers, the second level appeared. Here was actually a large iron gate, and it was opened mechanically. This is no surprise considering the lights that can be seen on the ground.
The iron gate opened, and the guards inside silently registered Ma Tao and Nihao. The registered items were identification cards. Ma Tao had no choice but to leave his real name.
"Teach the slave and go straight to the left. Go ahead, there is someone there to receive you."
After those people registered, they didn't look at Ma Tao and the others again.
After Xiaoji Zini thanked her profusely, she told the team to "let's go"
So they continued walking in, and Ma Tao looked back at the passage on the right that was opposite them, and narrowed his eyes.
The passage on the left is quite long. The further you go in, the brighter the lights become. Waves of crying continue to come, and there are some roars from time to time. The further you go in, the louder the sound becomes. It is dozens of meters away. Sentries and patrolling guards began to appear around them. It was here that prisons began to appear on the walls on both sides. Various men and women wearing uniforms were huddled in the corners. When they saw someone passing by, their eyes were full of fear and desolation.
"These are slaves who are about to be domesticated. In a few days, they can be sold and sold, but they can also be bought now."
Ni Hao, who was sitting in the car, saw Ma Tao looking at the live bait slaves inside and said with a smile.
In fact, Ma Tao was looking for Su Lanxi here to make sure that he would not miss her. After hearing this, he stopped talking and carefully observed the faces of every slave in the cage.
After a while, I saw a few men and women dressed in rich clothes pointing in front of these cages. There were guards registering on the side. They were obviously planning to buy live bait slaves. When Ma Tao and the others passed by, those few The man and woman in fine clothes even glanced at him.
"Don't talk and don't look at them. They can't be offended."
Ni Hao quickly reminded them, but Ma Tao was afraid of getting into trouble, so he just ignored them and just passed them by.
When passing a three-way intersection, Nihao jumped out of the car.
"Okay, I can only send you here. Everyone inside knows me and my boss. It will be very troublesome to take you in."
Nice to say.
Ma Tao looked at the other two passages and asked, "Where do these two places lead to?"
"These are all places where slaves are kept as live bait. It's just that the time is different, the slaves' grades are different, and the training stages are different. Let me tell you, don't talk here. When you meet patrols and rich people, The nobles must make way for them."
Nihao warned him in a low voice with a look on her face that was for your own good.
Ma Tao nodded, looked at Chen Meng in the prison car, and found that the woman had her eyes closed and was motionless. He recalled that the little boss at the door touched her body and she didn't respond. He thought that she might have fainted from hunger, so he didn't. Care, turn around and leave.
After watching Ma Tao disappear into the depths of the tunnel, Nihao jumped onto the prison car again, squatted down, reached out and patted the wooden prison cage, took out some broken biscuits from his arms and threw them in.
"He left. Which department are you from? How did you fall into his hands?"
Nihao stared at Chen Meng's beautiful figure and touched his small beard.
Chen Meng, who was in the cage of the prison car, slowly opened his eyes and confirmed that Ma Tao was not here. He got up like crazy and went to pick up the food that the nun had thrown to him. He looked like a starving ghost reincarnated. .
"Oh my God, slow down, you're choking. I don't have any water for you to drink."
Nihao looked at her appearance and shook his head.
"I'm...I'm from Lei Gena...take me back to the management department quickly"
Chen Meng took two mouthfuls of food and gained some strength to speak.
Eat something, Chen Meng,
