Chapter 4180 Tragic End
Xu Qiang followed his master's advice. After Rost said so much, he also became interested in this Pierre.
As for what he looks like, you will understand after you see him, so the next task is very clear, find a way to find the whereabouts of Pierre first.
At least according to his identity, Pierre can be regarded as a prince, but the situation of this prince is really sad. He is not even an ordinary person and is sold like a commodity.
If a person falls to this point, he will find a piece of tofu to die. Pierre is still alive because he has not achieved his goal in his heart and does not want to die meaninglessly.
He is waiting for an opportunity.
Perhaps this opportunity will never come in this lifetime.
An underground trading market, slave trading is illegal and is expressly prohibited in the international community.
However, not everyone in this world will abide by this law. The underground slave market is still very popular. Those nobles who think they are superior in blood will select strong slaves from here to do things for themselves.
The slaves were locked in a cage made of rattan. The cage was very strong. You could not cut the rattan without a knife. You could not do it with bare hands. You could only be locked in it.
In a narrow house, there were more than a dozen slaves locked up. The room was filled with a foul smell. They had lost their personal freedom. They ate, drank, defecated and urinated here.
There was only a small vent, which shone a pitiful ray of sunlight. This was a living hell on earth. Pierre had a lot of experience, from being high above to being at the mercy of others.
He curled up in the cage, staring with big eyes, watching the slaves around him being taken away and never coming back. He knew that these people had found buyers and new owners.
It would soon be his turn. He did not want to be a slave to others. Pierre was thinking of a way to save himself and escape from this place.
"Number 37!"
Someone outside shouted into the house, and two people walked in from outside. The number they said was the number of these slaves.
They have fallen to this point, and the names have become redundant. They only need to find the corresponding cage according to the number, and then find a cart to lift the cage up.
Number 37 is Pierre. He saw two people walking towards him, and the cart was next to him. His fate was about to be controlled by others. At this time, Pierre was struggling.
He said a lot of words, but the two people couldn't understand them. They just saw Pierre struggling in the cage and trying to escape from it. It was really pitiful to think about it. Their fate had already been doomed.
So the two of them were not polite. They put a stick into the hole of the cage. After beating Pierre, Pierre finally became honest and was taken out.
Every slave was clearly marked with a price, and in order to increase sales, the seller would praise the seller in front of the seller, such as what the slave could do and what special skills he had, which were all the concerns of the owner.
Soon Pierre was taken outside, to a brightly lit room. The dazzling light forced Pierre to close his eyes. It took a while to adapt to this environment.
The man in front of him, holding a whip, wearing a coat and having a big beard, was the seller of this transaction. All the slaves were his goods.
A buyer came and said that he wanted a knowledgeable and cultured slave. What he hated most was illiteracy. The reason he bought slaves was because he needed a manager to help him manage the slaves and workers under him.
Knowledge is naturally the best, saving him from spending money to train. The price of slaves is low, and they can only be loyal to him, so the transaction is very cost-effective.
"This is the slave I introduced to you. He was originally a prince of a country. He attempted to launch a coup to seize the throne, but the action failed. He was exiled and fell into my hands."
"Prince? Let him out and let me see!"
The buyer seemed very interested. The two opened the cage at this moment. Just as Pierre was about to struggle, a metal collar was put on his neck.
The collar was tied with an iron chain, and the other end was held in someone else's hand. The collar was surrounded by iron spikes. If you don't resist, these iron spikes will not cause any harm.
But once the slave is disobedient, just grab the iron chain and pull it hard, then these iron spikes will pierce deeply into the flesh, and the slave will become obedient after feeling the pain.
Pierre, who is also a human being and has received higher education, exploded at this moment. We are all human beings, so why should we be treated like this?
"Damn it! What you are doing is prohibited by international law, and you will be punished and condemned by the international community!"
He struggled to take off the collar on his neck, but unfortunately he couldn't take it off without the key. He was a commodity that someone had ordered, and he had already lost his human rights.
"See, I'm right, this slave can speak fluent English and knows the international community."
The seller heard Pierre's angry voice here, but he was not angry, but very happy, and introduced the advantages of this slave to the seller.
As he said, he took the iron chain and dealt with this disobedient slave who dared to question him here. There are ways to deal with it.
Pull the end of the chain, lift it high, and drop the heavy ten-kilogram chain down fiercely. With such a strong pull, the iron spikes on the inner wall of the collar deeply penetrated into Pierre's flesh and blood.
Pierre screamed several times. Even though he was like this, the seller did not intend to spare Pierre. He still pulled the chain until Pierre's neck was bloody. The barbs on the iron spikes scared many slaves.
"You are my slave, you have no right to say these words to me here. Don't forget who is feeding you these days and who is giving you food. I feed you to sell you for a good price!"
The seller will not have any sympathy for Pierre's experience. This is a kind of business and a transaction.
It has fallen to this point. It is ridiculous for a slave to stand up and talk to him about human rights. He doesn't even look at his current situation. Even his life belongs to someone else.
Pierre was in so much pain that he couldn't speak. Blood flowed down his neck and dripped onto the ground. He finally understood that he had no strength at all. It was indeed a joke to talk about the so-called ideal.
If he didn't easily trust the people around him at that time, kept hiding himself, and developed secretly, he might have a chance to succeed, instead of being like now, with his life and death in the hands of others.
Strength...
If you want to achieve great things, you must have your own team, but now he can't even control his own destiny, how can he realize what he wants in his heart.
"Sprinkle medicine on him. If he dies of tetanus, I will lose this business."
The seller said, and one of them grabbed a handful of white lime powder and sprinkled it on Pierre's wound.
Pierre screamed again in pain, and then another basin of cold water was poured from the top of his head, and Pierre became like a drowned chicken.
Finally, the penicillin wholesaled in the market was poured on the wound. As for whether it was sprinkled evenly, no one would care about this issue. Pierre's death was just a few hundred dollars less.
"Okay, let's take this slave. He's quite strong and will definitely be useful when we go back."
After the buyer looked at it, he decided to take this slave and took out a roll of money. The deal was done.
Seeing that he was really going to be sold, Pierre exploded again. He endured the pain in his neck and rushed towards the buyer.
The buyer saw that Pierre's mouth was a little scary, so he hurriedly asked the people around him to block him. Pierre lay on someone and bit his ear hard with his mouth.
"Ah... It hurts so much!"
An ear was bitten by Pierre and was bloody. Only a little skin was left, hanging on his face.
Crazy...
The slave was crazy...
No one would be willing to buy such a cruel slave. The buyer hurriedly took back his money and left angrily.
