Human Shackles

The strange fish was frightened by his momentum and paused, as if hesitating whether to attack.

One person and one fish faced each other for a moment, and then they became entangled together. Luo Kai relied on his strong water-based perception to dodge the attacks every time, and at the same time found opportunities to fight back. Unfortunately, facing the strange fish, the scales of the fish could not be hurt by bullets. , his fist is like scratching an itch.

The river water in early spring was extremely cold. As the speed of Qi and blood decreased, the coldness that he didn't care about became his biggest enemy. His limbs became numb and his flexibility began to decrease. The situation became more and more critical.

The girl finally climbed ashore. The battle in the water was a bit unbelievable. The person who rescued her was more agile than a swimming fish. Seeing that the man seemed to be slowing down, he shouted anxiously: "Uncle, get ashore quickly!"

Luo Kai didn't want to go ashore, but his mental weakness made it increasingly difficult for him to maintain resonance with the current. Without the boost of the current, he couldn't swim past the strange fish.

The girl thought of something and suddenly grabbed the spear of the guard beside her. She raised the gun and fired. Four gunshots were fired in succession. The bullets accurately hit the strange fish. One of the bullets directly hit the strange fish's eye. The marksmanship was accurate. It's hard to believe that it was done by such a weak girl.

A line of blood spurted out, and the strange fish rolled and disappeared into the river. Everyone on the shore breathed a sigh of relief, and the young people praised loudly: "Cousin, what a good shot!"

But the girl's beauty suddenly turned pale and she exclaimed in shock: "Uncle, be careful!"

A shadow appeared under the water, and Luo Kai flipped around to avoid it, but then a tail fin with bone spurs slammed hard on his chest. His vision went dark, and he briefly lost consciousness for a second. When he woke up again The monster fish's big mouth full of sharp teeth has reached its body.

At the critical moment, Luo Kai bit the tip of his tongue to force himself to wake up. While avoiding it, he suddenly stretched out his hand to clasp the dorsal fin of the strange fish, and pressed his whole body against it. The strange fish immediately swung wildly, trying to throw him out.

Luo Kai knew that if he let go in his current situation, he would definitely die. He mobilized all his strength and contracted all his skeletal muscles, wrapping the strange fish tightly like a python. One person and one fish rolled and were swallowed by the river water.

The river returned to calm. The girl was stunned and slowly sat down on the ground.

The bearded man suddenly let out a miserable howl: "Xiao Kai, my son, how can I live if you die!"

The girl came back to her senses, stood up and walked to the bearded man, lowered her head and said: "Uncle, uncle helped me save my life, I will repay you well."

The bearded man was unmoved and simply took off the prosthetic leg, sat on the ground and howled non-stop.

The girl's eyes were red and she said solemnly: "If...if uncle dies unfortunately, I will definitely take good care of you."

The young man also followed up and said: "We are from Blackstone Heavy Industries, and we will definitely not treat you badly."

The bearded howling finally stopped a little.

The girl walked to the shore and was stunned when she looked at the turbulent river water in front of her. Even a strong physique warrior who was dragged into the water had a very small chance of surviving. During the brief contact, she had already noticed that the uncle was very weak. The possibility of survival is even slimmer.

The image of blood spurting out and the final act of resolutely throwing her to the shore flashed through my mind. There was actually such a person in the world.

He just stared at the river blankly for a long time, and then said to the young man: "Cousin, let someone notify the county government and tell them that there is a giant man-eating fish in the Nilong River, and ask them to inform the people not to wade into the water easily."

The young man nodded hurriedly, loudly ordered his men, and then asked cautiously: "Cousin, what is this strange fish? Is it the legendary beast?" He didn't resolutely go into the water to rescue just now, and he was reluctant to worry about the girl blaming him.

The girl shook her head: "It's not a ferocious beast, it can only be said to be a mutated species. It's strange. This crocodile has only been found in the swamps of the Misty Mountains. How could it appear in Nilong River!"

"Cousin, let's go back to the city. It's time for Xiaozhuo to get out of school. She will be very happy to know that you are here. My uncle also knows that you are coming to Longyang City, so he rushed here from Nanya Island. He will probably arrive tomorrow."

The girl just took two steps, then looked back towards the river. After seeing no movement for a while, she sighed melancholy and turned to leave.

When the girl and her group left, the mournful look on the bearded face disappeared. He stroked his beard and murmured: "A descendant of the Three-Eyed Clan, it seems that Zang Haisheng is really related to the Three-Eyed Clan."

Then he walked to the riverside and muttered: "Bad boy, I know you are destined to die. You are such a fool. You dare to work so hard when you are about to die. Alas, when I was young, I couldn't It’s exactly the same!”

…

Luo Kai was indeed not dead. He tightly wrapped around the strange fish, letting it crash around the bottom of the water without letting go, until his consciousness became blurred. Due to the long-term lack of oxygen, the feeling of being about to fall into eternal nothingness returned again. came.

The weak body was able to support himself until now only because of his tenacious will, but now his will began to collapse. He knew that nothingness represented the dissipation of consciousness, which also represented death.

At the moment when he was about to lose consciousness, he shook his body like a flashback, raised his fist and punched the strange fish in the eye socket that was hit by the bullet. This punch condensed all his spiritual will and was surprisingly powerful. It was wrapped in a layer of black light and blasted directly into the big fish's brain stem.

When Luo Kai woke up again, he found himself in a dark cabin, with his hands and feet chained up by chains. There were many people around him, all connected together like a string of grasshoppers by a long chain. The clothes are ragged, the skin colors are different, and the accent of the language is strange, like a dialect.

From their conversation, Luo Kai figured out the situation. This was a slave ship. Once a person was unlucky enough to drink cold water, his teeth would choke. He was picked up by a slave ship. The slave owner found that he had a tattoo carved on his chest. After 9527's scar, he immediately thought he was a slave and stuffed him into a bottom cabin full of slaves without hesitation.

He was extremely lucky to be alive. He couldn't ask for more. He was too tired and fell asleep again after a while. He was so groggy that he didn't know how long he slept until he was awakened by a noisy movement. The slaves were scrambling to be the first. People were crowded at the door, and Luo Kai, who was also chained, was also pulled over.

Several strong men with long knives at their waists pushed open the hatch and drove the slaves away with whips. They carried wooden buckets and poured a lump of brown paste food in front of each person one by one. This stuff was made from wheat bran and rice bran. It's cooked in a big pot and doesn't look pretty, but it's still food.

Luo Kai sighed, but he didn't expect to be back to the past. He was born in a prison and never cared about food. He wolfed down this thing, feeling warm in his stomach, and his body regained a little strength.

The slave ship moved awkwardly for a day. Luo Kai originally wanted to find a chance to escape, but found that he had difficulty even walking, so he gave up the plan.

On the second day, I looked for Shuyuan www. zhaｏshuyuan.comｍ The slave ship docked at a simple dock, and the slaves were all driven into several steam trucks covered with black felt cloth. Luo Kai probably counted hundreds of slaves.

The steam truck traveled for a long time and entered the rail station in the night. The rail station was full of densely packed soldiers, watching indifferently as slaves were herded into the rail car carriages one after another.

Luo Kai was a little confused. Where was he going to be sent? How could he be transported directly by train so openly? Didn't it mean that the slave trade had been banned in Star Horse Kingdom?

This was the first time Luo Kai took a long-distance train in this world. The train started clanging. After dawn, the outside scenery came into view. The vast land was almost entirely covered with weeds and trees, and villages were rarely seen. Extremely desolate and desolate.

The train stopped, and the slaves were taken over by a group of soldiers wearing khaki military uniforms. The soldiers used leather whips to drive a series of slaves into a heavily guarded military camp.

Luo Kai finally figured out the situation, damn, these slaves are slave soldiers!

Although the slave trade is banned on the surface, it is still rampant secretly. Even the military of various countries are involved in it, and they are important slave suppliers and buyers.

As the war between Xingma Kingdom and Nanzhao Kingdom becomes more and more intense, the recruitment of soldiers has become a big problem. Both sides are trying every means to recruit soldiers. In addition to recruiting soldiers by normal means, they also buy slave soldiers. The slave soldiers have no wages and no war. Subsidy, no pension will be paid after death, and battle losses will not be recorded. In terms of cost alone, it is even more cost-effective than recruiting soldiers normally.

The soldiers drove them into a masonry barracks, opened the iron chains, rinsed them roughly with cold water, sprayed a large amount of disinfectant powder one by one, and then gave each person a set of bedding and light yellow military uniforms, and then they were herded in. A closed dormitory.
