Chapter 419: Out of the Wolf's Den and into the Tiger's Lair



Chapter 419: Just out of the wolf's den, into the tiger's den

With a creak, the door slowly opened a crack, and a wrinkled hand covered with age spots stretched out to grab the edge of the door, and then an old woman with white hair stuck her head out, looking at Yu Meiqi and Xinghuo with a puzzled look.

Her eyes were a little cloudy, but full of vigilance, "Who are you looking for?"

"Hello, grandma! Excuse me, do you have a phone at home? I want to call the police." Yu Meiqi said.

The old woman frowned and looked Yu Meiqi up and down, "Yes, please come in."

"Okay, thank you, grandma!" Yu Meiqi walked into the house with Xinghuo, only to find that the furnishings in the house were very simple, with only a table and two benches, and no phone at all.

"Little girl, what happened? Why did you call the police?" The old woman stared at Yu Meiqi.

Yu Meiqi met the old woman's eyes, and suddenly she had a bad feeling in her heart, as if she was stared at by a poisonous snake, making her feel uncomfortable.

Yu Meiqi pretended to be calm and said, "That... grandma, can you help me pour a glass of water? I'm a little thirsty."

The old woman nodded, reached out and picked up a porcelain cup with peeling paint on the table, turned around and walked towards the kitchen.

Yu Meiqi retracted her gaze, turned to look at Xinghuo, and said in a low voice: "Let's go quickly." This old woman gave her a very dangerous feeling, and she had to leave quickly.

She had just taken two steps when the old woman's sinister voice came from behind: "Where do you want to go?"

Yu Meiqi's body stiffened, and a chill rose from the soles of her feet and quickly spread throughout her body.

She didn't dare to look back, and walked quickly to the door, opened the door and wanted to run out.

At this moment, a black shadow appeared in front of her like a ghost, blocking her way.

Yu Meiqi looked at the person in front of her in horror, only to see that the other person looked at her with a weird smile on his face, "Where do you want to go?"

The old woman came over with a rope, "Little girl, I advise you to be obedient and don't force us to do anything."

After that, she smiled and looked at the young man outside the door, "Hu Zi, you are back." The reason why she was still awake so late was that she was waiting for her son to come back.

The young man nodded, and looked at Yu Meiqi with a squinting eye, "Mom, where did you find such a beautiful girl?"

"She came to the door on her own, and she looks good."

The young man smiled and nodded, "She should be able to sell it for a good price." They were in the business of human trafficking. They had planned to wait until this business was over, change places tomorrow, and then look for other prey. Unexpectedly, there was a prey that came to the door on its own.

Yu Meiqi's face showed despair. She didn't expect that she had just escaped from the wolf's den, but now she entered the tiger's den again. How could she be so unlucky.

"Woof!" Xinghuo suddenly yelled and rushed towards the young man. Its movements were swift and decisive, and it threw the young man to the ground in an instant.

The young man fell heavily to the ground and groaned in pain.

"You dead dog, get away from me! Get away!" The young man struggled and tried to push Xinghuo away, but Xinghuo bit his arm tightly, making him unable to break free.

The old woman saw her son being bitten by Xinghuo, and she hurriedly looked for a stick everywhere.

Yu Meiqi reacted and saw the old woman coming with a stick, so she rushed over to stop her.

However, she was hit on the shoulder by the old woman's stick, and tears immediately flowed out of her eyes due to the pain.

The old woman pushed Yu Meiqi away, raised the stick, walked towards Xinghuo, and swung it hard at Xinghuo.

Seeing this, Yu Meiqi's face changed drastically, and she hurriedly shouted at Xinghuo, and rushed to the old woman at the same time, trying to stop her action, "Run!" Xinghuo was trying to save her, and she couldn't let Xinghuo get hurt.

The old woman's stick fell heavily, and just when it was about to hit Xinghuo, Xinghuo suddenly flashed and disappeared in front of the old woman.

It was too late for the old woman to stop the stick.

"Ah~" Immediately afterwards, a scream resounded all around.

The villagers in the village were awakened by the sound, and one after another turned on the lights, opened the door and went out to see what was going on.

Yu Meiqi breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Xinghuo was fine.

The old woman saw her son, whose head was covered in blood after being beaten by her. The wooden stick in her hand fell to the ground with a bang. She quickly squatted down and cried to her son, "Huzi, what's wrong with you? Answer me quickly, don't scare me, Huzi..."

But the young man on the ground didn't move, and even his breathing was very weak.

"Huzi's mother, what happened?" The village chief came over and asked.

The old woman ignored the village chief and kept shaking the young man on the ground, "Huzi, wake up quickly, don't scare your mother, wuwuwu..."

Yu Meiqi was no longer afraid when she saw so many villagers, "They are bad people, they just said they want to sell me."

The village chief looked at Yu Meiqi in surprise, "What did you say? They want to sell you?" Huzi's mother and Huzi came to their village half a year ago. They are very kind and often give things to the villagers, so the villagers like to interact with them. How could they be human traffickers?

"Yes." Yu Meiqi told the story, then pointed to the hemp rope on the ground, "Look, the rope is still there."

The village chief looked at the rope, and still looked at Hu Zi and his wife with some disbelief, "I'll go call the police first." Let the uncle with the hat decide who is right and who is wrong.

The uncle with the hat arrived in the village quickly.

Yu Meiqi told the story, and thought of Lu Qingyun, and immediately said: "Uncle Hat, besides this matter, there is another more important thing. When my friend saved me, he encountered a grave robber. He is in danger now. You go and save him." What she cares about most now is Lu Qingyun's safety.

If Lu Qingyun gets into trouble, how can she be worthy of Sister Ling Yao.

Uncle Hat didn't expect there would be other situations. After carefully asking Yu Meiqi about what happened, he followed Yu Meiqi and Xinghuo and headed towards the ancient tomb.

They also knew about the theft in the ancient tomb, and they have been investigating this matter recently. They didn't expect that this time they would have such an unexpected harvest.

As soon as the few people and the dog walked out of the village, they saw several cars driving towards them quickly.

The car soon stopped beside Yu Meiqi and the others.

The car door opened, and Yu Dahai, dressed in a neat military uniform, got out of the car. Seeing that Yu Meiqi was safe and sound, he walked forward excitedly, looking at her with red eyes, "Meiqi, I'm so glad that you're okay. I was so worried about you." As soon as he received the news and knew that Meiqi was here, he immediately rushed over with his people.
