Lu Shiyan's eyes were also full of disgust. He leaned close to Jiang Tangtang's ear and whispered, "Is your stomach feeling any better?"
Jiang Tangtang came out with Lu Shiyan today intending to use the scanning system to quickly familiarize herself with the surrounding terrain. However, to her surprise, she started her period at this crucial moment.
I don’t know how the original owner of this body used to get through her period. She just felt terrible all over, like she was going to die.
This discomfort wasn't just lower abdominal bloating and pain; it also included weakness and soreness in the legs, and lower back pain.
In short, Jiang Tangtang felt that none of her body parts were in good condition.
What angered her even more was that she used various points to draw random rewards, but in the end she only drew a bunch of useless books such as "The Complete Book of Agriculture" and "The Breeding and Care of Sows", and she didn't draw the life-saving drug ibuprofen.
The system even euphemistically called it a way to create opportunities for her and the male lead, a so-called "romance trick" to increase their popularity.
Jiang Tangtang was so upset she wished she could die on the spot. Who would care about that crappy little trick?
It was so unbearable that she didn't have the energy to argue with the system, so she could only place all her hopes on Little Immortal Lord.
It must be said that, in crucial moments, Little Immortal Lord is more reliable than the system.
Jiang Tangtang frowned and cried out that her stomach hurt. Lu Shiyan hesitated for a moment, then placed his large hand on her stomach.
His hands were like a hand warmer, the heat spreading outwards from where his hands were.
Jiang Tangtang felt that the pain in her lower abdomen had lessened a lot, but she still felt weak and powerless.
Seeing that she was pale and weak, Lu Shiyan found an abandoned hut to rest for the time being.
The two arrived first and were in the inner room of the house, so the traffickers did not notice that there were other people in the house.
Once inside the house, he cooked and ate while grumbling and complaining. His words were full of dissatisfaction with the goods he had received over the past few days.
That's how the two of them found out about their shady dealings.
Jiang Tangtang was furious at this moment, and only regretted that she didn't have the time to go out and kill these scumbags. What was a mere stomachache?
She said very obediently, "Husband, go do whatever you need to do, don't worry about me."
Lu Shiyan looked around, then placed Jiang Tangtang on the roof beam and whispered, "Then hide well and don't make a sound no matter what you hear. I'll come to pick you up in a bit."
The beams of this house were very wide, and with Lu Shiyan adding an extra wooden plank on the side, Jiang Tangtang didn't have to worry about falling off while sitting on it.
There's a lot of dust.
However, Jiang Tangtang felt that she could barely tolerate it in order to deal with a few scumbags.
She nodded obediently to Lu Shiyan.
Seeing her obedient appearance, Lu Shiyan's heart softened for no reason, and he suddenly felt an urge to pat her head.
Just then, a rough voice suddenly rang out from outside, "Boss, is there any noise inside?"
The group fell silent instantly. The gang leader frowned deeply. "Let's go in and take a look."
Lu Shiyan suppressed the strange feeling in his heart, jumped off the roof beam before the group of people came in, and went out.
Upon seeing Lu Shiyan, the burly men immediately showed expressions of tension and surprise.
This house is not only well-preserved but also quite secluded. People like to rest here and treat themselves to something to eat after they've finished their business.
The brothers and I worked hard all day today, but didn't catch anything good, so we complained a bit.
Surprisingly, there were still people here.
The gang leader looked very unwell.
But after a moment, he relaxed. So what if he heard? As long as he killed the person, that would be enough.
He gave a look to his men, but Xiao Hei raised his hand to stop them, then leaned over and said with a grin, "Boss, isn't it a waste to just kill this guy like this? Look at him..."
After Xiao Hei's reminder, the gang leader also realized what was going on. To be fair, although the man was dressed in shabby clothes, his looks and physique were top-notch.
But after a moment, he shook his head regretfully and said with pity, "It's a pity, he's too old."
That man doesn't like older men.
Xiao Hei smacked his lips, nodded, and said, "He is a bit old, but it doesn't matter. There are plenty of men in the capital who are interested in men. We can find our own way, isn't that better than running errands for others?"
Since he had already heard everything, he stopped trying to hide it.
He thought much the same thing as the gang leader: the man in front of him looked like a pretty boy, and all they had to do was teach him a lesson.
However, unlike the gang leader who killed people, he wanted to take people away and give them away.
Her figure and looks are even better than the top courtesan in Chu Qiao's brothel.
The key point is that this pretty boy looks clean.
The gang leader gave him an approving look and instructed his men, "Go easy on him, don't hurt that good skin."
Xiao Hei led his men and charged towards Lu Shiyan.
Lu Shiyan glanced coldly at the group, then calmly picked up a wooden stick from the doorway and quickly knocked all the men who rushed at him to the ground.
The gang leader never expected this pretty boy to be so powerful. Before he could even react, all his men had been taken down.
He tried to run away, but Lu Shiyan threw a wooden stick at him, breaking both his legs.
Lu Shiyan walked over slowly and stepped on the gang leader's hand.
It sounded as if he could hear bones cracking. The gang leader was in so much pain that he was covered in sweat and almost fainted.
But that wasn't all. Lu Shiyan stomped on his right hand, then his left. Only after breaking both his hands did he coldly say, "Will you speak for yourself, or should I speak for you?"
At this moment, in the eyes of this group of people, he was no different from a demon.
Xiao Hei had lost its previous arrogance and said tremblingly, "Tell me, tell me, what do you want to hear?"
Lu Shiyan glanced at the dilapidated carriage in the courtyard and asked, "How many children did you capture? Who are these children being given to?"
At first, the gang leader and his men tried to cover it up, but after Lu Shiyan chopped off the necks of the two men on the spot, the gang leader dared not hide anything anymore and stammered out the whole story.
It turns out that these people were all from the Changping Marquis's residence.
In order to curry favor with Prince Duan, Marquis Changping regularly sent people to select good-looking children of suitable age.
It is said that Prince Naduan did not like boys who were too old; the ideal age was eight to ten.
Once a boy is over twelve or thirteen, he won't even glance at him again.
He was a cruel man by nature, and few of the boys sent to his mansion survived to the age of twelve or thirteen. Moreover, even if they did survive to that age, his men would secretly execute them to prevent the matter from being exposed.
Because Prince Duan's tastes were becoming increasingly picky, Marquis Changping would often have some younger boys selected and sent to his estate to be raised until they were ready to be sent to the Prince's residence.
Besides this group, there are several other groups of people searching for boys among the refugees.
