When the rough youth saw that no one had increased the price, he happily concluded a deal with the old man. The old man signaled to the follower, and the follower immediately took out the silver ticket and handed it to the rough youth.

The rough young man smiled and bent over. He put the silver ticket in his pocket and picked up one side of the chain. He opened the cage, and then he went in and put the chain around the boy's neck. "Hey, old man, now this little evil is yours, you can take him away."

A living child was sold as an animal.

The old man nodded his head satisfactorily and let his followers lead the chain. A deal was completed formally.

The crowd gradually dispersed while they seeing no excitement. Only Mengying Lin stood in an empty iron cage for a long time, she could not make progress. She wanted to help the poor child. However, she was not a genius but just an ordinary person. She was too weak so that she chose to be patient.

The old man got into the carriage with the help of his followers. His followers walked on both sides of the carriage. One of them grabbed the chain and dragged the little boy forward.

Although knowing that she could do nothing, Mengying Lin could not help catching up when she saw that the carriage was about to disappear in sight.

She walked a few feet behind the carriage and watched the child go barefoot and bump forward. The wound whipped by the whip was still bleeding. The dazzling red liquid fell to the ground drop by drop, causing the dust to change color.

The town was not big enough. After the time of a cup of tea, the carriage stopped at the door of a house. The old man got out of the carriage and looked at the children who were following the carriage. He nodded satisfactorily. He told the people beside him "Take him to have a good bath. By the way, take the gadgets I bought last time from the capital into the house. Tonight I have to teach this little child well."

"OK, lord, you can take a rest, I assured that the safekeeping will be done properly." His follower promised with the acceptance of understanding. People could know what he was thinking at a glance with a trivial look on his face.

Mengying Lin stood at the corner and watched the two followers bring the little boy into the house.

The door was closed, and the night was so full that just like ink could trickle out.

Mengying Lin came back to her mind for a long time. After the evening breeze passed, she felt a little cold on her cheeks. She raised her hand and she didn't know when she had tears on her face.

She saw the cruelest side of the society once again. The strict feudal system made the life of those powerless people miserable.

She let out a long sigh and sat on the floor powerlessly against the wall. Her mind was filled with the scene of the old man desecrating the little boy for a while...

Suddenly the sound of horse's hooves pulled back her thoughts. When she looked back, she saw the vast caravan from far to near. This town was the only way to the border between the two countries. So many caravans would settle down here, which one should be the caravan on the way.

With this in mind, Mengying Lin was preparing to step back and made way for the caravan, but she suddenly found the people who were familiar in the distance.

"Tie Lu" Wasn't that the bodyguard next to Liancheng Mo?

She was so shocked that she almost turned around and wanted to run instinctively, but when she had just run a few steps and stopped at a terrible pace, she suddenly turned around and bit her lower lip. Her eyes fell on the carriage beside Tie Lu. She was sure that Liancheng Mo must be in that carriage.

At the moment when Mengying Lin turned around, Tie Lu had found her. He walked quietly to the carriage and said to the people in the carriage, "Your Highness, Mengying Lin is indeed in this town, Your Highness... Should I take her here?"

"No need." The voice of Liancheng Mo was still faint and nobody could get his mood. The prey was already in the cage. He was not in a hurry. He always had to let the prey fear before he closed the net.

"Yes!" Tie Lu took orders. He looked at his nose and no longer looked in the direction of Mengying Lin, as if he hadn't found anything before.

The convoy of this size attracted many people, including many people on the black road, mostly trying to acquire profit in time of trouble, but the crowd quickly dispersed when they saw guards of the carriage were soldiers in military uniform,.

In these years, people do not fight with wealth people. Wealth people did not fight with officials, even if there was courage on the road, people dare not make the housekeeper's idea.

The mighty convoy was drifting away, leaving the street right now. At that moment, Mengying Lin had some blanks in her mind. When she came back to her mind, she had rushed to stop the carriage of Liancheng Mo.

The people around Liancheng Mo were all experts. If it wasn't for Tie Lu to make a quick gesture to the people around her, she might have lost her life.

"Tie Lu, why did it stop?" In the carriage, Liancheng Mo leant lazily on the brocade mat, but the corners of his mouth raised a fascinating radian unconsciously.

"Your Highness, answer your question, someone stopped the carriage." Tie Lu could not help whispering, with your martial arts, even if the curtain is down, you know what happened, why still ask me?

After a brief silence in the carriage, a soft hum sounded, "Dare to stop my carriage, kill her"

"Uh..." Now, Tie Lu became more and more confused.

Nevertheless, it was not necessary for him to struggle whether to carry out the orders of the prince, because Mengying Lin who in front of the carriage had already t climbed into the carriage by herself.

"Tie Lu, can my carriage be accessible?" There was a faint anger in the words of Liancheng Mo.

Tie Lu's solemn expression finally collapsed in this instant. "I am incompetent, Your Highness, please forgive me!"

His bodyguard was too difficult to do. With his martial arts attainments, how he could let alone a girl who does not know martial arts get into his carriage? If he didn't want to, she couldn't get into his carriage at all even she was an excellent people.

Such a proud prince, Tie Lu also wanted to cry without tears!

Mengying Lin seemed unaware of the conversation between the master and the servant. She drove the curtain into the carriage and immediately piled up a bright smiling face. Then the whole body sat beside Liancheng Mo. She put her small hand around Liancheng Mo's neck and said, "Your Highness, I miss you so much. It's a great pleasure that I can meet you here."

Liancheng Mo sat still without any moving, a pair of deep eyes straight looking at Mengying Lin's face, "Oh? Is that right? "

"Of course, I miss you so much that made me get thin." Mengying Lin had a smile on her face, but she was nauseated in her heart. Sure enough, when a person was pushed to despair, she could do anything.

"Ah," laughed the evil spirit of Liancheng Mo, raising his hand and landing his finger on her cheek. The long finger went down her cheek and finally stayed at her throat. The feeling under her finger was warm and fragile. He laughed harder and harder. "I remembered I had to warn you not to escape from me before I left..."
