Children of Loulan

"Brothers," he said, "in the past, there was no woman in our village. If you wanted to have sex, you had to go down the mountain and take risks. It was so difficult and dangerous! But now, we have women in our village, and they are beauties from Loulan!"

His words caused a slight commotion, and everyone shouted: "Good, good, good!"

Then he continued, "Although we already have women, this situation of too many wolves and too little meat is indeed a bit of a headache. How should we distribute these dozen women?"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a commotion in the crowd. Someone shouted, "Is there any need to say this? Of course the bosses should make the selection first!"

"That's right!" another person echoed, "The leaders have made great contributions to our village, so they should be chosen first!"

"That's right!" Several people nodded in agreement.

At this time, a voice suddenly popped up: "For the remaining women, let us brothers decide through a competition! Whoever wins will be the one to marry the beauty!"

This proposal immediately received a response from the majority of people, and everyone felt that it was both fair and stimulating.

However, just as everyone was cheering, one person stood up to express his objection. He frowned and said, "But if all these women are distributed, most of our brothers will still be without women, right? Can we keep a few for the village to share, so that when the brothers want to have sex, they can have a place to vent!"

His words were like a boulder hitting the water, and quickly resonated with some people. "Yes, we have to leave a few for our weak brothers!" This voice came one after another, as if it was a verdict on the fate of these young girls.

Listening to their unscrupulous discussions, Ai's heart felt like it was sinking into an ice cellar. She originally thought that as long as she made herself ugly, she could escape the tragic fate of being treated as someone else's bed toy and instead do some rough work.

However, reality dealt her a heavy blow. She never expected that it was a group of bandits who rescued her from the human traffickers.

She roughly estimated the size of the village, at least several hundred people. This means that if she was chosen by the bandit prime minister, she would just become a woman of the bandits; if she was not chosen, she would be treated as a shared object of the entire village, and would suffer endless humiliation and torture.

This sudden change caught her off guard. Her heart was filled with despair and helplessness. For a moment, she didn't know how to deal with such a situation.

However, before she could recover from her shock, she was pushed by a powerful force and involuntarily walked into a dark and damp cell. More than a dozen girls who were captured with her were also locked up here.

The cell was filled with a foul smell that made people feel suffocated. The girls huddled together, looking at each other in horror, and no one knew what would happen next.

As time passed, the darkness of the night enveloped the cell, making people feel endless fear. It was not until the next morning when the sunlight poured into the cell through the narrow window that she was awakened from her sleep.

Before she could fully wake up, a rude voice suddenly sounded in her ears: "Wake up, wake up!" She opened her eyes and saw a fierce-looking man standing in front of her, staring at her with anger.

The man's eyes fell on the thing that looked like a birthmark on her face. The birthmark covered almost half of her face, making her face look a little hideous. The man was obviously very dissatisfied with her appearance, his attitude became worse, and he kicked her hard!

Afterwards, all the captured girls were taken out of the cell and brought to a row of houses, which were already crowded with people, whispering and pointing, their eyes all on the captured girls, as if they were goods waiting to be picked.

Ayi and her friends were surrounded, looking particularly helpless and vulnerable. The surrounding bandits commented on them, expressing their opinions and evaluations without any reservation.

Then, a few people who looked like the leaders came straight towards Ayi and the others with unfriendly eyes. They first scanned Ayi and the others' faces one by one without disguising their eyes, as if they were examining the goods.

When their eyes fell on the big black mark on Ayi's face, one of them was obviously frightened and trembled all over, and even screamed out loud. The other one was stunned and looked at Ayi in disbelief, as if he had seen something extremely terrifying.

What was even more outrageous was that the frightened man mercilessly reached out and pushed the defenseless Ayi to the ground. Ayi was caught off guard and fell heavily to the ground with a dull sound.

However, the man who pushed Ayi down not only showed no mercy, but also cursed at her: "Fuck, I'm scared to death! She's so ugly, but she was kidnapped. Are those traffickers blind?"

His words were full of contempt and insult, making Ayi's heart tremble. Another person echoed, "It's really strange. Normally, those human traffickers have been engaged in this kind of business for many years, so they must be very picky about the quality of the goods. How could there be such bad goods?"

Hearing his words, the man who had pushed Ayi down earlier suddenly became unhappy. He stared at him and asked in a bad tone, "Second brother, what do you mean by this?"

The man called the second brother explained solemnly, "Those few people we killed before were not ordinary people! They secretly sold many Loulan girls to our Tang Dynasty. All of these girls are beautiful, which shows that they are very good at selecting beauties. And today, among the dozen Loulan girls we have, except for her," the second brother pointed at Ayi and continued, "the other girls are all first-class beauties!"

At this time, another person standing nearby also showed a puzzled expression and interrupted, "Second Brother, what do you mean by that? Do you think there is something wrong with her?"

The second brother hesitated for a moment, then replied, "Oh, brother, I'm not sure either, I just have some guesses. Let's put it this way,"

He changed the subject and looked at the man who pushed Ayi down, and then said, "Old Third, go get a basin of water and see if you can wash the stuff off her face."

After hearing this, the third brother immediately turned around and looked at the pot of herbal tea on the table. He quickly walked to the table, picked up the pot of tea without hesitation, and poured all the tea in the pot into a large bowl with a "splash".

Then, the third brother picked up the full bowl of tea and rushed straight to Ayi. Ayi was frightened by the third brother's sudden action. She looked at him in horror and her body involuntarily shrank back.

However, the third brother was too fast and Aiyi had no time to dodge. With a "pop" sound, the bowl of tea splashed heavily on Aiyi's face like a rainstorm.
