Chapter 1 Being sold to the Colosseum

"Li'er, you're back." A vicissitudes of voice came from the thatched house.

I saw a girl of about eleven or twelve years old with a double bun, put down the backpack on her back, walked to the back room, silently picked up a kitchen knife and started chopping vegetables.

The girl has fair skin, and under her slender curved eyebrows, she has a pair of water-like eyes, clear and bright, and her red lips are not a speck of red.

Hua Jianli has known that she is different from others since she was a child. She did not cry when she was born and cannot speak. When she was 8 years old, her parents went to the mountains to collect medicine and were bitten to death by wolves. She lives with her elderly grandmother. The whole village said that she is a lone star of evil. , killed his parents.

A young child in the village also made up a limerick: "There is a mute girl in the east of the village. She was born beautiful and silent. She killed her parents and no one could marry her. She was born to be a broom star."

Faced with the comments and bullying from the whole village, Hua Jianli never argued or felt sad, she just endured it silently.

She didn't fight, grab or argue, trying her best to reduce her sense of presence, but someone refused to let her go.

Zhang Daqin next door stood at the door of the house, looking at Hua Jianli who was going out to fetch water, with a malicious look on his face. If he sold this bitch, her daughter Liuying would have a dowry for her wedding next month.
Under the dark night, a woman wearing a light green long dress was urging the woman on the side, "Mom, hurry up, don't be discovered by others." The two quickly left the flower room. Drag it to the carriage outside the door.

The woman was Zhang Daqin who was planning to sell Hua Jianli during the day. The woman in the light green long dress was Zhang Daqin's daughter Liuying.

The two dragged the woman to the carriage, and Zhang Daqin breathed a long sigh of relief, "This bitch looks thin and heavy, but she exhausted me."

Liuying got on the carriage, looked at the woman lying on the seat, her hands tied with hemp rope, and asked in a sour tone, "Mom, why don't you sell her to a brothel?"

Zhang Daqin replied while driving, "Silly girl, although this Hua Jianli looks good, she can't get much money if she is sold to a brothel. We sold her to the Colosseum and signed a life-and-death contract. She can run away if she wants." I won’t lose it. If I die, I can still get a large amount of money, which can be used as a dowry for you.”

Liu Ying thought about her wedding next month, with a shy but happy look on her face. She sat next to Hua Jianli and snorted coldly, "You are a bitch who has no father and no mother. You were not sold to a brothel to serve others. It is an advantage for you."

"Liu Ying, come down quickly, the person doing the transaction is here." Zhang Daqin stopped and called Liu Ying to get out of the car.

Just hearing the sound of horse hoofbeats coming from far away, two middle-aged men got off the horse and walked to the carriage. After a middle-aged man got on the carriage and inspected it, he got out and said to Zhang Daqin, "This bitch is born The skin is tender and the meat is tender, can you beat it? You won’t trick us, will you?”

"Please don't worry, sir. You can go and find out. This girl is the lone star of the evil spirits. Her parents are both in trouble. She is determined to survive and will not die easily." Zhang Daqin said with a smile on his face.

"Okay, if you dare to cheat us, you won't even get a cent of this money." The man took out two contracts from his arms and handed them to Zhang Daqin. Who knows that the Colosseum is short of people recently, and every one can be found.

Zhang Daqin got on the carriage with the contract, took out the red clay prepared in advance, took Hua Jianli's hand, and put a fingerprint on the contract. "Okay." Zhang Daqin put one of the contracts into his arms and handed the other to the man.

"Will she wake up?" the man asked after taking the contract.

"No, I'm using the top-notch hypnotic drug Xiuxi Pill, which will make you unconscious for half a day at least." Zhang Daqin promised again and again.

The man nodded, handed a stack of banknotes to Zhang Daqin, jumped on the carriage, and drove away. The other man also followed behind the carriage.

Liuying took the banknote and said with joy, "Mom, that's so much money."

Zhang Daqin watched the carriage go away and said triumphantly, "Yes, if that girl has her shortcomings, we can get more money."

The Lucheng Colosseum, which can accommodate more than [-] spectators, is one of the three major colosseums in the Qiyue Kingdom. It was specially built for the royal family and nobles to watch gladiatorial battles.

There are more than 70 cells underground in the Colosseum, where captured slaves and prisoners are held, ready to fight with beasts at any time.

Hua Jianli endured the severe pain in his head and opened his eyes, and found himself in a cell. Under the dim candlelight, the musty and damp cell looked heavy and gloomy, and the walls were stained with blood.

"What's going on? I'm obviously sleeping. Where is this?" Before Hua Jianli could recover, a fat man with a beard and a tall, thin man came over with whips.

The fat man opened the cell, and the two of them held Hua Jianli and walked out.

Hua Jianli struggled desperately, but the man was too strong and couldn't get away at all. Hua Jianli bit the fat man's hand. The man was in pain. He whipped Hua Jianli on the back and said angrily, "How dare you bite?" People, once you enter this Colosseum, don’t even think about getting out.”

Hua Jianli was shocked, the Colosseum!Why did you come to the Colosseum!Unable to speak, Hua Jianli was frightened and anxious, and then started struggling again.

The two of them carried Hua Jianli to the ground, and a burst of cheers reached Hua Jianli's ears. Hua Jianli watched helplessly in the center of the Colosseum, where a young boy was jumped down and bitten to death by a tiger. His eyes widened in horror. .

"Distinguished guests, please enjoy a more exciting performance next." The boy was dragged away, and Hua Jianli was pushed into the beast arena unprepared. Looking at the tiger slowly approaching in front of him, and listening to the increasingly enthusiastic cheers from the stands, Hua Jianli Jianli's mind went blank.
