Lu Yunxi kept her eyes and ears open as she followed a group of girls, surrounded by a group of men, through the small village.

The village is on the mountain, and rows of houses are built around the mountain road. They are all low mud houses.

There were quite a few men among the passersby. Regardless of age, they all looked at them with muddy and wanton eyes, and unconsciously wore lewd smiles at the corners of their mouths.

The few women I occasionally saw had disheveled hair and looked like crazy people. They worked silently, as if no one saw them, with numb expressions on their faces.

There are only more than 30 houses in the village.

Lu Yunxi and others were taken to a dilapidated house at the end of the village.

"Go in!" The person behind him pushed hard.

Lu Yunxi staggered, his eyes full of fear, and squatted down silently.

No one noticed that the colorless and odorless powder had already floated in the air.

Several people stood in front of them. One of them fetched a basin of water from somewhere and wiped their faces one by one.

"Haha! I knew the woman sent by this human trafficker was pretty! The women sent by other human traffickers can give birth, but they are not as pretty as this!" One of the men was so happy that he stood in front of them and touched their faces one by one.

Feeling the heat on her face, a cold light flashed in her eyes. She was about to slap the dirty hands away, but found that her body trembled unconsciously.

Lu Yunxi: ? ?

Strange! Why is she shaking suddenly?

She was stunned and immediately cast two health-recovery spells on herself, but there was no change at all.

until--

When she saw her friends around her with frightened faces, she suddenly understood.

Because they had vowed along the way and refused to leave, not only did they insist on following her here, but they also acted fearless. So after arriving at the village, she was only concerned with observing the surrounding situation and did not pay attention to their expressions.

Who knows...

Just when Lu Yunxi was worried, the group of men left with satisfied nods, as if they had bought good pork.

Watching the group walk away, she quickly comforted the girls next to her: "Don't be afraid, I picked a lot of fruits along the way, some of which can make people feel weak. I'll find a way to throw them into their food when the time comes, and they'll be fine."

The girls felt relieved when they saw that she looked confident.

Several people were about to discuss the next plan.

Lu Yunxi's eyes suddenly fixed, and he raised his index finger to his mouth.

Everyone suddenly quieted down, squatting on the ground with their heads down, looking honest.

A stern-faced woman came in carrying a pot of food.

The pot was filled with a variety of wild vegetables.

The woman took a few broken bowls with an expressionless face, scooped out seven bowls of vegetable juice, and handed them to them.

"This is your meal for today. Go to bed after eating."

Lu Yunxi looked at the bowl of green soup with two wild vegetables that were too old to be chewed floating in it, and couldn't help but twitch her eyes.

As the woman was about to leave, one of the girls suddenly spoke up: "Auntie, I heard that we were bought to be wives... Do you know whose wives we will be?"

The expressionless woman suddenly paused, looked at them strangely for a long moment, and then burst into laughter, her face full of hatred: "Whose daughter-in-law?! Of course it's everyone's daughter-in-law!"

The woman seemed to be suddenly provoked. Her originally indifferent face became ferocious, filled with disgust and hatred. "Hahaha, none of us can escape! The women who come here don't accompany one person, but the whole village!"

After saying that, she laughed wildly again and walked out with the remaining pot of wild vegetable scraps.

Everyone: ...

The girls who had originally relaxed became anxious again, with panic on their faces.

Lu Yunxi comforted them for a long time.

After everyone calmed down, she went out to investigate.

…

"What's going on? Can we escape?" Seeing her come back, the girls stood up immediately in nervousness.

Lu Yunxi: ...

Isn't it said that it doesn't matter where you go, so why not run away?!

She couldn't help but complain in her heart for a moment before getting down to business. "The women here rotate from house to house, staying with each family for a month. There are thirteen women in total, and only three of them are allowed to walk outside. The others are tied up. There are at least thirty or forty men. The one who came to pick us up this morning isn't here. I don't know where he went."

She waved her hand, signaling everyone to come closer and whisper, "Let's do this..."

In the next few days, Lu Yunxi went out to find food, and everyone ate, drank, slept well, and was full of energy.

After waiting for several days, the original group of men and a few new girls finally arrived in their shabby room.

The new girls were much more frightened than them. They started trembling like frightened little animals as soon as they were pushed in.

"Haha, another woman is here!"

"Don't these traffickers usually come in the fall? Why are they here early this year?!"

"Who cares! Let's first figure out how to divide these women up, shall we?"

A group of people wiped the faces of the new girls and started commenting on them.

"This woman is pretty, with a round face and looks festive. Send her to me!"

"This girl looks like she's not full. How can she possibly give birth..."

Lu Yunxi didn't pay attention to what they were discussing. The only thing she noticed was that one of the new girls was unconscious!

She was dressed in a rough gray linen dress, her face was dirty, and she looked as if she had rolled in a garbage dump.
