As the saying goes, perseverance pays off, and she finally found a good place that was just the right size!
Zhen Wanwan looked happily at the dog hole in front of her, compared its size, and realized that she could squeeze in as long as she tightened her clothes!
Time waits for no one, so Zhen Wanwan rolled up her sleeves and pants, lay down on the ground, and prepared to drill.
"My wife! What's wrong with you...?"
Zhen Wanwan stiffened, and after a couple of awkward seconds, she turned around and saw A Yue coming to find her.
With tears welling up in her eyes, she grabbed her hand and pleaded, "Ah Yue, you've finally come! Take me inside quickly, Guai Bao and the others must be being held in this yard by these human traffickers!"
A-Yue didn't contradict her wife, and followed her gaze to the high wall.
This little wall is nothing to her, but it's always better to be cautious.
"My lady, we don't know what's going on inside yet. Why don't you wait here while I go in and check things out?"
Zhen Wanwan remained silent. She knew A Yue's skills very well, and she also knew that following her in would only cause trouble.
"Ah Yue, be careful. If you sense anything amiss, don't linger in the fight, come back immediately! Don't get hurt!"
A Yue felt a warmth in her heart. Before coming to her wife's side, they had risked their lives, but whether they lived or died, they had to complete their mission.
"Yes, my lady, quickly find a safe place and wait for me to return!"
Zhen Wanwan watched as A Yue climbed over the wall and went inside, admiring her agile movements with great envy.
Unfortunately, her physique was not naturally gifted; martial arts could only strengthen her body, but not enable her to leap across rooftops and walk on walls.
It was expected that it would take some time for A-Yue to go in and gather information, so Zhen Wanwan looked around and found a place with dense weeds before crawling inside.
She didn't care if there were snakes or insects inside; the most important thing now was whether she could rescue Guabao and Tianbao.
About fifteen minutes later, A-Yue came out.
When Zhen Wanwan saw A Yue climb over the wall, she quickly stood up, waved, and nimbly jumped over the thorny, unidentified plants.
"How about it?"
Ah Yue took a breath and said, "My lady, I have searched every corner of the courtyard and found only four or five people inside, two of whom are already lying down because they are drunk."
Zhen Wanwan guessed that the two drunkards were the two she had followed earlier, which made things easier for them.
"Are you confident you can kill them?"
Ah Yue paused to think for a moment, then nodded: "It's a bit troublesome, but as long as you can protect yourself, I can take care of them all!"
Zhen Wanwan felt a little embarrassed. Her combat skills were indeed too low, but she wouldn't be a burden.
"Let's go in first, and then see how to deal with them!"
The two stood back at the corner of the wall by the dog hole. A-Yue said softly, "Wife, don't panic. There's a dog in there. I just knocked it out!"
Zhen Wanwan hummed in agreement, closed her eyes, and let A Yue hug her waist.
The next second, she felt herself suspended in mid-air, and soon her feet landed on solid ground.
The moment she opened her eyes, she met the gaze of the dog. The dog, its tongue lolling out, was staring at the two of them with a hissing sound.
"My lady, watch out! This servant will deal with him!"
Seeing this, A-Yue quickly shielded Zhen Wanwan behind her. Zhen Wanwan recognized the dog opposite her and was overjoyed. She patted A-Yue on the shoulder and said, "A-Yue, don't be afraid, I have a way to deal with it!"
The dog in front of me, which looks very handsome and resembles a wolf, is just a husky!
"Tsk tsk tsk... Brother Dog, don't bark like that, I'll give you meat!"
The husky, tongue lolling out, thought Zhen Wanwan was playing with it, and happily ran and jumped around, even coming over to lick her feet.
With a thought, Zhen Wanwan produced the dog's favorite snack in her hand. She took out a piece of beef jerky and stuffed it into the dog's mouth.
The husky paused for a moment, but adhering to the noble virtue of not eating what it shouldn't, it took a small bite and was instantly captivated by this food it had never tasted before.
Zhen Wanwan fed it several pieces before leaving the snacks on the ground for it to eat slowly.
A-Yue stared in shock at the scene before her. The dog resembled a wolf, and wolves are notoriously difficult to tame.
I never expected this beast to be so servile in front of his wife.
"Ah Yue! Let's go quickly!"
Zhen Wanwan clapped her hands, shook off the crumbs, and left with A Yue.
The two turned left and right, and finally saw those people.
Seeing them pacing back and forth lazily, yawning from time to time, she looked at A-Yue and gave her a wink.
Ah Yue understood immediately, slowly moved over, and took care of one person in no time.
The remaining three were startled awake and shouted, "Who are you? Do you know who I am? How dare you cause trouble?"
Ah Yue snorted coldly, spat, and cursed, "I don't care who you are! I just don't like you and simply want to beat you up!"
"How dare you! Brothers, take her down right now!"
The man in the lead didn't take it seriously, thinking that this little girl was very arrogant!
They've had their share of enemies before, but those people's graves are now as tall as this young woman's.
Ah Yue faced off against the three men. At first, she easily sparred with them, but gradually she became overwhelmed, and the three men became visibly excited.
Seeing that she was trying to escape, the three of them chased after her without thinking.
Upon seeing this, Zhen Wanwan rushed over, opened the door, and found it pitch black inside, with nothing to be seen.
She took out her flashlight and lit up the room, only to find that there was nothing inside.
The room was empty, with only a bed and a few furnishings.
Her intuition told her something was wrong; these people were so wary of this place, they must be someone important.
She suddenly thought of secret passages and tried out the furnishings in the room one by one.
Finally, she found a secret passage on the bed. She glanced around the room and, seeing that it was not disturbed, jumped down into the passage and closed the entrance back up.
There was no light in the dark passage, so Zhen Wanwan turned the flashlight to its brightest setting, illuminating the narrow passage clearly.
Unlike the secret passage in Anqing Prefecture, this road had plenty of air, and breathing was easy.
She walked along the passage for at least 45 minutes. People tend to get nervous when they stay in a sealed environment for too long.
Zhen Wanwan was the same; cold sweat began to bead on her forehead, but she did not back down.
Her child is waiting for her to rescue him!
"My sweet baby, don't be afraid, Mommy's here!"
Perhaps it was Zhen Wanwan's prayers that worked, for she finally found the path widening and slowly began to see a glimmer of light, so she quickened her pace.
Just before the light came on, I turned off the flashlight and crept up quietly to check the situation.
She saw that the room was spacious, with tables and chairs placed in the middle, and tea on the tables.
Several cages were set up on the side, and many children were being imprisoned inside!
What's most despicable is that the guards actually...
