章 79: I Want Him

A slave was not considered a human, but a master's property. The government protected the rights and interests of slave owners, and punished runaway slaves severely.

Once a runaway slave was found, the authorities would contact the master, and those whose owner could not be contacted would be immediately executed.

The children of the runaway slaves also belonged to the slave owners, and once they were found, they would be dealt with in the same way.

It was also because of this reason that slaves with slave did not dare to escape. Even if they escaped, they did not dare to marry or have too close contact with others. Once the identity of a slave was discovered, death was practically waiting for them.

Lin Xiaoyue only knew this after asking a young hunter beside her who had lost an arm.

This hunter had come to buy a wife because he had lost an arm while hunting.
