Chapter 18: Trivia on Crete continued The light was dim, the walls were damp, mosquitoes were infested, and the air was filled with an unpleasant smell of rancid mold.
In the deep dark room, dozens of half-naked women with half-clothed bodies and numb expressions were strewn about.
They were all barefoot, with rough hemp ropes connecting their delicate ankles together, and a layer of scarlet blood.
Outside the open door, there were constant bursts of heartbreaking screams, which seemed to come from their compatriots, but these poor women who had been completely desperate for a long time did not even have the courage to raise their heads and take a look. .
Outside the dark cell, in the spacious courtyard paved with white sand, a brown-haired woman was held in the middle by two muscular men with her arms twisted.
Apart from the ropes that tied her hands and feet, there was no trace of her body.
A covering.
Let the onlookers gaze with greedy eyes at this body that gleams in the sun, while the slave traders with wretched faces comment on this "commodity" and describe her various benefits.
Beside her, there were four other women who were equally naked as her.
These young girls seemed to have long been accustomed to this level of public nudity.
No one cried or trembled, they just clung to each other, trying to maintain the remaining shyness with their companions' bodies.
However, the humiliation that these female slaves were about to receive in the sale place obviously went beyond that.
A few picky buyers approached them and playfully kneaded their plump breasts and slender waists, or opened their mouths.
Looking at his teeth, he let out a few obscene laughs from time to time.
One of the youngest black-haired girls seemed to be hurt by the pinching of her breasts.
She couldn't help but trembled and shouted "no", but the buyer turned a deaf ear and continued to push his hand further towards her lower body.
The black-haired girl, who could no longer bear the insult, screamed and threw away the opponent's hand.
However, in the next moment, her long hair was grabbed by the ruthless strong guard behind her, forcing her to It hurt so much that I almost cried.
Then he was scolded and slapped by the slave merchant, who asked the customers to "inspect the goods" on the spot like this, which was also one of the characteristics of the slave trade.
When Ma Tong and others came over, even from a distance, they could still see that the lower lips of several of the women had been bitten with blood.
They were desperately holding back tears rolling in their eyes, and their bodies were shaking like chaff.
And several customers were still appraising their bodies like appreciating playthings.
"This skin is so white, as if it has never been exposed to the sun.
This is a really good slave girl."
"This slave girl is really too thin, especially her butt is not big enough.
I'm afraid she is not suitable for giving birth to a child."
"Her eyes are so fierce, she looks untamed.
Where did you get this batch of goods?"
Obviously, the buyers are still planning to continue bargaining.
But at the same time, the merchant in charge of selling slaves had already seen Ma Tong and his party who were shouting and swarming, and he hurriedly ordered people to start clearing the place, driving out the idle customers, and at the same time ordered the thugs to pull out all the female slaves for display.
"Everyone, a distinguished guest from the palace is coming over.
If you haven't made up your mind to buy it yet, please step aside."
Several onlookers who originally wanted to bargain, saw this and had no choice but to retreat angrily.
The leading slave merchant came forward with a smile and said, "Dear adults, the female slaves you want are all here.
They are all of an age suitable for having children, and their appearance is at least above average.
If you have any special requirements, we can also purchase and prepare goods for you if you are diligent and in good health.”
Seeing the naked women with dull eyes and numb expressions all over the yard, the three Japanese policemen who still had their moral integrity didn't know what to say.
On the other hand, Ma Tong, a lily girl with no integrity, seemed to be quite calm.
"This is why the female slaves you prepared look so small!
What I need is something that can be immediately distributed to the soldiers as wives."
Ma Tong walked up to a girl with brown hair and observed her carefully.
She looks very petite and slender, but she is still full of charm.
She raised her hand and touched down the girl's shoulders until she touched the girl's buttocks, feeling the delicate and soft skin.
Then he weighed the girls' breasts separately, and was surprised at how this young girl's breasts could be so heavy.
"She is not young anymore, distinguished lady, even though she is a little thinner, she is actually thirteen years old this year, and she is already old enough to get married and have children.

According to her own statement, she had been married to her as early as two years ago.
The man rolled several times in the grass."
The slave trader hurriedly explained, "Moreover, she, her sister and her mother are all Babylonian goddesses who specialize in serving people.
Not only are their breasts big enough, but their bed skills are also very good.
They are guaranteed to get their men."
It’s so cool.”
He pointed at the two women next to him, one large and one small.
The brown-haired mother and daughter, who had similar looks, were not tied up by ropes, and they were naturally posing to the men around them.
They didn't look afraid at all, and they seemed to be showing off coquettishly.
It has become their innate instinct.
Speaking of which, being ejaculated by a man at the age of eleven may seem like nothing in ancient times, but in modern times, it is equivalent to being a primary school student, okay?
I should also praise it, a primary school student or something is really great.
However, at this time, Senior Ma Tong was paying more attention to another message about this "goods".
"You can get such high-end products as the Babylonian goddesses.
How can the Babylonian temple be willing to sell them?"
After listening to the slave merchant's introduction, Ma Tong couldn't help but be slightly surprised.
She had also taken the time to study a lot of historical materials on Mesopotamian civilization, and knew that the goddesses carefully trained in various temples in Babylon were from this era.
The highest-end "sex service providers" claim to be able to allow pilgrims to communicate with gods when having sex with them.
They are also important assets and cash cows of those temples, so they generally will never be sold easily.
"Of course you can't buy such high-quality goods as the Babylonian Goddess.
But in the past two years, thanks to the blessing of Her Highness the Daughter of the Nile, it first triggered a continuous fierce war between the Hittites and Egypt, then flooded Assyria, and then burned The Tower of Babel in Babylon caused chaos all over the land.
People everywhere who lost their homes could not survive, so they had to sell their sons and daughters, so we received a lot of good goods at very cheap prices.
Even the Babylonian priests who served the gods wanted to raise the cost of rebuilding the Tower of Babel in Babylon as soon as possible. , and began to sell the goddesses in their temples in large quantities."
The wretched-looking slave trader rubbed his hands with a smile and gave an almost shocking answer.
Miss Carol, please stop pretending to be so innocent.
You are already a sinful woman.
Ma Tong complained in his heart, and at the same time he lowered his head and looked at the smooth-skinned, naked thirteen-year-old girl in front of him.
If her whole family is a Babylonian goddess, it means that this girl has started her slave career since she was born.
It has long been completely domesticated.
However, this also shows that the three of them, mother and daughter, are very adaptable to the life of being raised by men and selling meat in ooxx, so they should be more obedient.
She sighed, then looked at the other female slaves, and found that most of them had numb and dull faces, their skin was tanned, and they had not worn clothes for who knows how long, but their figure and skin It's actually pretty well maintained.
But some of the naked women had very fierce expressions, their eyes were full of hatred, there were blood stains on the corners of their mouths, and their bodies were covered with whip marks, as if they had just been severely tortured.
Behind the low wall not far away, there seemed to be screams and cracks of whips coming continuously.
"Most of the goods look pretty good, but what's going on with these female slaves?
They don't seem to be obedient."
Ma Tong pointed at one of the naked slave girls with the fiercest eyes and the most whip marks on her body, and asked in confusion.
"Ah, these female slaves are all new here.
They haven't had time to train yet.
If you bump into a distinguished guest, please bear with me."
The slave merchant explained with a smile on his face, "Last month, when General Jutta led our fleet to go to sea to meet the Daughters of the Nile, he robbed several fishing villages and ports along the way and captured these women, who had just been transported three days ago.
I have returned to the city of Knossos, so the wildness in my body has not been polished off, so I am not very obedient, but please rest assured, distinguished guests, as long as we give us another ten days, we will ensure that all these women will be docile."
Well, in this era without international conventions, the so-called navy is actually pirates, and patrolling is robbery.
The royal fleet of Crete naturally grabs wherever it goes.
It will only restrain itself when faced with a powerful opponent that cannot be grabbed.
Therefore, it was understandable at the time that General Jutta took the opportunity to welcome the daughter of the Nile and robbed houses and captured slaves to make extra money along the way.

In fact, not only the fleet of the Kingdom of Minos used slave hunting as a part-time job, but the Egyptian army was also brutally killing people and setting fires everywhere.
For example, the relief you have seen before in the palace of Thebes in ancient Egypt vividly depicts the scene of the Egyptian army attacking a certain city.
A shirtless Egyptian soldier climbed up the wall of a city using a ladder. , all the residents in the city went out to fight them desperately, and even the women were fighting with the Egyptians.
Because they all knew what a terrible experience awaited them after the city fell.
Under this relief, there is recorded such a "beautiful and moving" ballad: After destroying the desert people's country, the army returned peacefully.
After ravaging the Desert People's country, the army returned peacefully.
After overturning their fortified city, the army returned in peace.
After cutting down their fig trees and vines, the army returned peacefully.
Having thrown all their inhabitants into the fire, the army returned in peace.
In short, after doing their best to burn, kill, loot and release all their adrenaline, the Egyptian army came back so peacefully, seemingly as innocent as children.
Presumably after reading this poem, everyone will understand why even women would fight bravely in front of the Egyptian army.
But to be fair, compared with other countries of the same era, the Egyptians were not brutal at all.
Because in the cruel and barbaric ancient society, murder and arson were the norm.
The armies of various countries are fighting against each other, and some places even retain the custom of cannibalism.
Therefore, massacres like the Egyptians can be called civilization in this era.
And if prisoners of war were brought back as slaves and sold, that would already be an extremely benevolent policy.
But no matter what, behind the "spring beauty" of flesh and blood right now, there is actually a scene of endless misery.
The female slaves first suffered disasters from the sky, their families were destroyed, and then they were repeatedly humiliated and abused by the murderers.
The hatred accumulated in their hearts has naturally reached an unbearable level.
Of course, as a time traveler, Ma Tong did not care about the miserable experiences of these female slaves, but only worried about whether they would be obedient.
"How can you make them tame in such a short time as ten days?"
she asked the slave merchant suspiciously.
"This is actually very easy.
We are the most experienced in this area.
As long as they understand that as women, death is not necessarily the most terrible ending.
There are many ways to make life worse than death.
For example, behead them.
Their limbs, their teeth and eyes were gouged out, and they were used as living toys, thrown into the most filthy and despicable places such as pig pens, stables and toilets, and played with by people and animals until they lasted until their last breath."
The slave trader smiled and said extremely cruel words, "The strongest women among them will seek death themselves.
The remaining women who can be tamed will put away their tears, wipe their bodies clean, and do their best to please and serve themselves."
In this way, the new owner will at least have the opportunity to become a concubine of a rich and noble person, or be rewarded to a commoner for meritorious service, and return to the role of mother and wife."
In this regard, after being silent for a long time, Ma Tong let out a long sigh, then turned around and made a gesture.
A dozen guards from the Minos Palace immediately carried out five large boxes of printed silk and moved them huffing and puffing.
Opened in front of the slave merchant, the fat man's eyes were immediately dazzled.
In this era, due to backward textile technology, cloth was very expensive in Western countries.
The scarcity and instability of various natural dyes made dyeing cloth even more rare, almost becoming a patent for the nobility.
The Phoenicians on the east coast of the Mediterranean escaped poverty and became rich in one fell swoop because they accidentally discovered a shell with natural crimson dye inside the shell and used it to dye cloth and sell it.
However, compared with the colorful "silks" displayed by the "men of gods" at this time, the crimson cloth that the Phoenicians were proud of paled in comparison.
Look, the texture of these "silks" is so soft and smooth, just like the most delicate skin of a girl, no matter how good linen is, it can't be compared with it.
The color is even more amazingly bright and gorgeous.
Just the appearance gives people a sense of luxury.
Moreover, the shiny silk surface is also printed with countless various extremely exquisite patterns, ranging from flowers, plants, birds and animals to There are all kinds of marine life, and the paintings of each pattern are so gorgeous and lifelike, full of novel and exotic customs, as well as a strange and elegant noble atmosphere.
This well-informed fat businessman can swear to the gods that if anyone can transport this batch of dizzyingly gorgeous printed silks to the markets of capitals, every noble lady will definitely be impressed.
Screaming with excitement, and making those dandies who are keen on comparison take out the last piece of gold and silver in their pockets "Regardless of rank, appearance and age, each female slave who passes the review will be exchanged for three rolls of silk.
Here, a hundred rolls of silk will be paid as a deposit first, and the remaining silk will be delivered after all the female slaves are tamed.

Are you satisfied with this deal?"
Ma Tong crossed his arms and said to the slave merchant.
"Satisfied, very satisfied.
It's a nice rare item.
Thank you very much for your generosity."
The slave merchant casually draped a piece of silk with a red peony pattern over his shoulders, rolled it up after making some gestures and put it back in the box.
In this barbaric era when human life was low, the price of slaves was extremely low.
During the war, the average slave only had It would take five slaves to exchange a piece of cloth for a horse.
Although the female slaves sold this time are considered top-quality goods, the price is not comparable to those ordinary slaves who are stupid and ugly.
But being able to exchange for such luxurious and gorgeous textiles was already worth the money in his opinion.
"In this case, our deal is concluded.
Later, you will send the domesticated female slave to the palace."
Ma Tong snapped his fingers, "Of course, don't play any tricks on me, such as changing the contract halfway.
Otherwise, you should know what will happen.”
"Hahaha, how is this possible?
I won't make fun of my reputation.
You are welcome to continue to patronize my business next time."
The plump slave trader had smile lines all over his face, and he kept rubbing his hands.
And his buddies joined in with their obsequious laughter.
But some of the naked "goods" standing in the courtyard somehow started sobbing miserably and desperately amidst the laughter, and were soon suppressed by the thugs and were forced to silence themselves.
Since they were "goods" , then there is no right to cry, because in this place, some people get everything they want, while some people are bound to lose everything.
These crying naked women are the most honest epitome of this cruel era.
On the way back to the palace, the three Japanese policemen were silent.
In the end, Ma Tong was the first to stir up the topic.
"I just went to the slave market and saw what happened to those women.
What do you think about it?"
"I feel that these women are really pitiable, sitting peacefully at home, but they will be snatched away and made into slaves."
Asami Nakaoka shrank slightly and whispered, "Besides, I didn't expect that a real female slave would look like this."
In the police academy in Japan, she also learned about the tragic experiences of Filipino illegal immigrants who were deceived by smugglers and brought to Japan.
They lost their personal freedom, were forced to work illegally or as prostitutes, and were squeezed out of their blood and sweat.
At that time, these people were simply living The life of a slave.
But now that I have really seen the real female slaves in BC, I have discovered that the tragedy of illegal immigrants in later generations is nothing.
Female slaves in this era are basically not allowed to wear clothes.
Their bodies only have clothes tied around their waists.
A rope, like a dog or a horse, kneels next to its owner doing the most humble things all day long, without any dignity or status at all, and their own spirit of resistance has long been wiped out, like a walking zombie.
If we must make an analogy, it feels to modern people basically like the house elves in Harry Potter.
When the master rewards a slave girl with clothes, it often means that she will be exempted from slavery and promoted to a servant.
Concubine or something like that.
"There is no way.
This is the cruel truth of slave society.
Everything is respected by force.
Morality, law and human rights are a joke.
If you can't be vigilant at all times and break away from the protection of the team, then the end result will be like escaping from the zombie apocalypse.
It doesn’t make any difference if the team breaks up.”
Ma Tong coldly and calmly warned the two female policemen, "Just like the female slaves we bought, any woman who has no ability to protect herself has no status at all in this era.

Whoever catches her will You are someone's slave.
Don't expect you to be as lucky as the Daughter of the Nile.
You will be caught by someone that night.
A man or even several men will do whatever they want on the bed, and then take away all your clothes the next day, only tie a waist rope around your waist to declare your status as a slave girl, and then use a whip to force you to do all the dirty and dirty things.
Tiring work.
Of course, after you finish the work during the day, you will continue to be fucked in his bed at night until he gets tired of you."
"However, even in this slave society BC, not everyone would be so cruel."
Asami Nakaoka, the little policewoman, continued reluctantly, "Just like the Shayji family that Kairol met on the banks of the Nile when she first came to ancient Egypt, they were very friendly to her and had no intention of taking Kairol into their own hands.
Treat me like a prey."
"Yes, if you are very lucky, it is possible.
After all, there are good people in any world."
Senior Sister Ma Tong nodded, "But Carol is the protagonist of this world's plot, so she has such luck, but you don't have the blessing of the protagonist's aura.
Therefore, after arriving at the colony, please be sure to use the greatest malice.
Make sure your neighbors are smiling and holding a sword.
Otherwise, by the time you are stripped naked and taken to this market for bidding, it will be too late."
In an instant, the two policewomen couldn't help but tremble slightly, deeply feeling the malice of this era and the cruelty of this world.
Next, watching the sun set in the west, Wang Qiu, who had been doing business in the palace square for most of the day, also put away his stall and returned to the palace together, preparing to see Doraemon and Kailuo who were left behind.
Hey, how are you playing with that little king of the cocoon tribe?
As a result, as soon as classmate Wang Qiu entered the dormitory, he was stunned to see a majestic lion roaring towards him.
He was so frightened that his legs weakened and he fell to the ground.
When he finally climbed up holding on to the door frame and took a look, he found that the dimly lit semi-underground bedroom of King Minos had turned into a beautiful and vast African savannah, with groups of lions, antelopes and Giraffes appear among the grass, and the white snow on the top of Mount Kilimanjaro can be seen in the distance "I'm sorry Doraemon, it turns out you are using an indoor travel machine to see the scenery" oshow7:
