Xiao Yunying lowered her head, choosing not to let him know she was there now, afraid that other children would see her and make a fuss, attracting attention.

"Damn it, where's Luo Yang? Why isn't he here?"

She habitually bit her lip. Could it be that Luo Yang had been killed because of his struggle last night?

No, Chen Yuanxuan is still here. Besides, Luo Yang is quite handsome. They probably wouldn't be willing to kill him for the money.

Xiao Yunying approached the two bandits who were drinking by walking close to the wall, listening to their conversation, hoping to glean useful information from their dialogue.

After listening for a while, all I heard was useless nonsense and dirty jokes.

Just as I was about to leave, I heard one of them say, "Two of the goods that came today are really good."

"That's right, didn't you see the second and third leaders couldn't resist taking them first?"

"That boy is alright; the third leader can still sell him after he's had his fun. But after this night, that girl probably won't fetch a good price."

"The second-in-command said he wants to keep her to warm his bed, he won't sell her."

The two men chuckled lewdly, and one of them changed the subject.

"Hey, I heard that the boy that the Third Master took away almost attracted the soldiers last night. The Eighth Master and the others were so scared that they didn't even want the carriage anymore, and they didn't even bring the candles. They used an unsealed box to transport them out. One of them almost drowned."

Another person took a sip of wine and said, "I heard from Lao Ba that the kid was being dishonest. He was already in the water, but he still tried to pry open the box to climb out. The box lid was stuck against the bottom of the city wall and couldn't be opened, so water leaked in through the gap. Luckily, the city wall wasn't too wide, or he would have really drowned."

Xiao Yunying's mind went blank. Judging from their conversation, the boy who was taken away by the third leader was most likely Luo Yang.
