Yuan had been thinking of a foolproof way to escape, and it would be best if everyone could escape together.

If there is no such good way, then it's okay to take a risk.

However, the premise of taking the risk is that they have a great chance of escaping, or at least one of them has to run away to report to the police.

Otherwise, you will just go through all the trouble in vain and even suffer physical pain, which will be a huge loss.

However, he chose not to take the risk if he could avoid it. Perhaps it was because his family members were in the Jinyiwei and they knew each other too well, so Yuan privately did not really trust the people in the yamen.

It’s not that they are unreliable, but some of them are indeed unreliable.

She had originally planned to eat and rest, and then sneak away with them when it got dark while they were asleep.

But now that one of the two adults had left, Yuan suddenly had other ideas.

If they pushed him from behind, he would be pulled down.

Then they could chew the rope and run away, or they could drive the ox cart directly back to the capital. The ox cart was so fast that he would definitely not be able to catch up, and maybe he could even make it home in time for dinner.

A Yuan tried to chew the rope. Although it was tough, with so many of them, it would only take one to chew through.

At this moment, A Yuan felt that his eyes were filled with the light of wisdom.

Ah Quan yawned lazily, curled up beside her, and whispered:

"I don't know what you're thinking about, but it's probably something useless."

Hearing this, Yuan felt discouraged and looked at her with a frown.

Before he could open his mouth, a handful of powder that was neither yellow nor white, mixed with a familiar smell of medicine, was sprinkled into the carriage.

Yuan's mind became confused again, and even more confused than last time. He barely heard one sentence before he passed out.

"Damn it, what a pity! Xiao Liu didn't even know to leave the handkerchief behind. There are so many of them, I guess I can't drug some of them to death..."

Yuan: ...

Her second uncle had been taken with medicine so many times but he didn't become a fool, but the little girl named Lai Feng'er in the car was extremely unlucky and had a fever.

When everyone woke up from the unfamiliar woodshed, she was still asleep. She looked particularly listless, and her little face with two freckles was as red as a fleshless hawthorn.

A Yuan peeped out through the crack in the woodshed door and saw a group of people in the yard drinking with their tongues chattering.

They wanted to call someone over, but they started cursing.

He would curse and throw two stones at the door to make them behave themselves, as if they were some kind of frightened animals.

"Will she die?" Zhao Ru was a little worried.

No one knows this, but we have all heard of a healthy child who died of a fever.

Feeling extremely heavy-hearted, Yuan tried hard to untie the rope with his teeth.

Ah Quan reminded quietly: "We have to start from the beginning. I advise you not to waste your energy. If you can't escape, he will beat everyone up tomorrow when he sees that the rope is loose."

Yuan: "How do you know if you can escape if you don't try?"

"We have tried many times," said Aquan.

So many people have tried so many times to escape but failed. Will anything change if Yuan is replaced?

Ah Quan added: "Do you have a way to get out of this woodshed?"

Yuan looked around and was a little disappointed: "No..."

Ah Quan sighed: "Then don't bring everyone along to get beaten."

These words make people feel powerless.

"We can't just sit there and wait, we can definitely do something." Yuan said unwillingly.

Ah Quan asked her back: "What can we do?"

Yuan hasn't thought about it yet, but she has grown up with great difficulty. If she just waits to be sold, it will be a big loss.

"Let me think about it..."

She looked at everything around her.

There was very little light coming through the crack in the door, so little that Yuan could only vaguely see a small area.

Since it was a woodshed, one side was naturally filled with firewood, and the other side had some sundries, a bench with a missing leg, a broom that was broken for some reason, and...

A Yuan opened her eyes wide, wondering if she had seen it wrong, or if it was really there.

She took a few steps inside, trying to take a look, but was restrained by the ropes again.

She urged, "Hurry up and get up. Let's go inside. There seem to be hoes and pickaxes there."

She saw farm implements.

Many children also saw it.

Can……

"What's the use?" A Quan asked.

Yuan: "Of course. At the very least, I can smash their heads and make them bleed."

Anyway, it's impossible to ask her to wait obediently to be sold.

Ah Quan: "It's useless. He will blow the drug in first, and we will fall down when we smell it."

"Let's not breathe!" Yuan said, "This place is bigger than the carriage, let's get out of the way. Let's not breathe and cover our mouths and noses like this."

This idea is actually a bit naive, but everyone thinks it is worth a try.

Maodan said: "Yes, when I hold my breath, I do pass out later."

Ah Quan looked at the firewood pile on one side and said: "We can ambush on the firewood pile. When they see that no one is around, they will definitely come in to check. Then we can jump down from above and attack them."

What she said was clear and logical, and she had a lot of ideas, but it was a pity that she was unlucky and never encountered such a good opportunity along the way.

It may not be possible now, but we should give it a try, we should always give it a try!

They instigated them, and Maodan, Nian Niang and Zhao Ru all stood up, followed by Sibao and Cui Gu, who were too dishonest to sell their goods.

Shafu and Erwai had no idea what to do. They had been tortured to the point of being dazed. Seeing that the others had gotten up, they got up too.

Only Lai Feng'er, who was drowsy and feverish, was a little troublesome, but it didn't matter, they could carry her over.

A few children tiptoed over there, looked at the farm tools, and thought of the fields at home.

They were fools to leave all that behind.

There were flails, hoes, spades, pickaxes, and rakes, and plows, too, of course, but they couldn't use anything so large.

The hardest thing is that there is a sickle.

A little rusty, but the tip is still sharp.

Their voices were so low that they seemed to be breathless.

"What now?"

"Cut the rope and wait."

They spoke in low voices, quieter than mice.

Thanks to their carefulness, they heard the louder noise outside—

"Wait, wait a minute, I'll go check on those little bastards!"

He Hui's voice was unclear, but his voice was loud.

Their hearts suddenly rose up and beat wildly in their chests like drums.

If you get caught...

This thought flashed through the minds of several people.

Shafu held his little head and squatted on the spot in fear. Erwai wanted to run back to where he was just now and sit down, but he was caught by the rope and almost fell. Nian Niang quickly covered his mouth before he cried out: "Shh!"

He would come so slowly and draggingly that they could hear the sound of his soles scraping against the gravel on the ground.

Finally he stopped. The light was blocked, so he just peeked inside through the crack in the door.

The smell of alcohol on his body could be smelled from a long distance away.

"Behave yourself!" He didn't notice anything wrong, so he yelled, slammed the door, and walked away dragging his shoes.

The people outside started shouting again, and it sounded like they were saying that He Hui was getting ready to go to bed, so they kept pulling him and urging him to drink more, saying that it was a rare opportunity for brothers to be together or something like that.

The children breathed a sigh of relief and waited in the darkness for a long time.

A Yuan then pulled them over again and carefully pushed the door open a crack.

Sickles, hoes and other items were hidden behind them.

They cut the ropes and felt a sense of relief.

"We must run out." They encouraged each other.

Everyone was prepared to fight hard. It was getting later and later, but no one felt sleepy. Instead, they became more energetic.

When the noise from drinking outside died down, they knew that those people had gone back to their rooms to sleep, so they moved around more boldly, wanting to see if there was anything else that could be used as a weapon.

When no one was paying attention, Zhao Ru walked to the door and peeked out through the crack. Suddenly, she made a bold move. She stuffed the sickle into the iron ring on the door lock and pulled it hard!

The lock fell.

The door is open!

A cold wind blew in.

run!

No one made a sound, and they didn't run away immediately. They carefully poked their heads out, then tiptoed out, opened the door, and then ran away quickly.

They left all their sufferings behind and ran as hard as they could, even carrying Lai Feng'er on their backs without falling behind.

Happy New Year, and all is well with them!

Everything will be alright…
