Nooch Village.

A noble carriage was parked at the intersection of the village. The tall jujube red horse was being comfortably taken care of by two servants. Around the gorgeous carriage, several guards in silver armor stood.

Behind the noble carriage, there is another carriage.

However, this carriage looked much inferior. The horses were all inferior horses from the countryside, and the carriage was also very crude. It didn't even have a roof, and was only covered with a big rag.

If you describe it, it is more like a shipment of goods.

This is indeed the case.

Looking inside the carriage of the carriage at the back, I could see several country girls curled up with their knees tucked inside.

They all have some things in common. For example, although they have the rustic look of villagers, they are not bad looking. Their bodies are shriveled due to long-term hunger, but their outlines are still good, and they are all potential stocks in the future.

Of course, there are differences. For example, some little girls have fear on their faces, some with confusion, and some with yearning.

"Master Robert, you are finally here!"

At the door of the village chief's house in Nuoqi Village, the elderly old village chief saw a middle-aged man in a housekeeper's uniform getting off the noble carriage, and immediately greeted him with a look of flattery.

Of course, the village chief could also see that there was only a freight carriage following the noble carriage, and even the shrewd village chief quietly glanced into the carriage and found that it was not fully loaded, and most of it was empty.

then...

"Mr. Robert, you... why did you buy so many people this year, or would you... pick and choose?"

"It's not that I'm exaggerating, but the girls in our Nuoqi Village are much stronger than other villages! All of them are ingenious and diligent, and they can definitely serve the nobles after entering the city."

The village chief patted his chest and swore to the housekeeper man across from him.

However, the butler man shook his head.

"Old Henry, it's not that I don't want to buy people, but the nearest Huodian City... Hey, I told you that you don't understand, anyway, people who are not from this city are not allowed to enter or leave."

"If it wasn't for the fact that my young lady had just reached school age and urgently needed a group of maids to accompany her to the academy, I probably wouldn't have come this year."

"That's good... all right."

The village chief was a little disappointed. He didn't care what happened to Huodian City, he just wanted to send a few more girls from the village to the city.

Do not misunderstand.

At least in these poor and sour rural villages, being able to sell their daughter to the city is definitely something to be celebrated and happy.

As for whether the little girls who were sold themselves thought the same way, I don't know.

"Okay, old Henry, get the girl from before, I remember... it should be called Vivian, right? Bring her here, I'm still in a hurry to go to the next village."

There were few country girls who could make Robert remember his name.

Vivian is one of them.

This housekeeper from the big family of Huodian City has a very good impression of the little girl. After all, he is able to raise his young brother and a father who is a alcoholic and gambler by himself. It can be seen that he has strong ability and no character. Difference.

The girls selected to buy from other villages basically asked the guards to lead them, but the Vivian and Robert from Nuoqi Village came out to trade in person.

only...

The process doesn't seem to be going well.

"This..." I saw the embarrassed look on the old village chief's face, and his words were a little hesitant.

"What's wrong?"

Butler Robert frowned when he saw this, but he valued Vivian very much and wanted to train this girl as a lady's personal maid.

"Hey, sir, you'd better go to Vivian's house and ask." The village chief shook his head and sighed regretfully.

When Robert, who was full of doubts, came to Vivian's house, when he first saw the panicked and anxious eyes of Vivian's father, Anlu, he immediately knew that something was wrong with the little girl.

"Anlu! Where's your daughter?"

"Big... lord, Vivienne she, she..."

Looking at Anlu who hesitated, Robert slapped the table angrily.

"Say!"

"Vivian... went to the Forest of Dreadclaw to collect medicine for her brother, and... hasn't come back..." An Lu was taken aback, and his voice was trembling.

"She is alone? Going to the Forest of Dreadclaw? Do you know that this is going to die!"

Robert stood up from the chair in a hurry, and pointed his hand at Anlu's nose, who had already knelt down in fear.

It can be seen from this that Vivian's place in this housekeeper's heart is really not small.

After taking a deep breath, Robert asked with his last fluke:

"When did she go?"

"Yesterday...Yesterday..."

"You!" Robert wanted to draw out his knife now and slashed the bastard's father with one knife.

"You are willing to let your daughter go on an adventure in a forest full of monsters, just for your little son who has no cure for a long time and who is dying right away!?"

"No...no no no, An...Andy can't die, can't die...he...he is my only son, son!" Anlu shook his head frantically.

"Andy is your son, isn't Vivian your daughter!"

"It's not the same... woo... woo... different... woo woo..." Maybe it was the sore spot, Anlu hugged

Still seriously ill in bed, the comatose young son was crying.

Obviously, in An Lu's heart, ten Vivians may not be able to match the status of one Andy, or, in other words, ten daughters are no better than one son.

Ignore this bastard father, after all, you can't expect a small, remote and backward village to produce people with such knowledge and culture.

In these rural villages, girls are inherently undervalued.

Otherwise, they wouldn't be so relaxed every year, and almost every family begged them to buy their own daughters to go into the city and serve as servants for others.

Ignoring Anlu who was crying, Robert turned towards a silent man who had been following him silently, wearing a spellcaster's robe.

"Mr. Lake, what do you think...if you send someone to the Forest of Dreadclaw to search..."

Butler Robert was only halfway through his words, and the spellcaster shook his head.

"The people under my command have inquired about it just now. This morning, two foreigners accepted Anlu's request to go to the Forest of Dreadclaw to find her daughter, but they have not returned yet."

"Stranger? It's just them..." The butler didn't seem to have a very good attitude towards the "stranger" in Lake's words.

"No, Lord Robert, the main point I want to tell you is that the current forest of Dreadclaw is probably much more dangerous than we thought..."

The spellcaster named "Lake" had a particularly solemn tone.

"What do you mean?"

"Just a while ago, I don't know if it was my illusion, but I seem to feel an extremely evil aura, bursting from the direction of the Forest of Dreadclaw..."

"If possible, I suggest that Sir Robert, you'd better set off now and return to Fire Code City."

"this..."

Butler Robert was just about to say, is the problem really that serious...

suddenly!

There was a piercing and miserable scream from outside the village entrance.

"what!!!"

"Eat... eat people!"
