The dark tunnel looked terrifying. The creaking sound of the iron gate made Qin Qing's heart tighten.
"Hey, hey, hey, dinner's ready!"
As he spoke, the bandit threw the lunchbox in his hand away and said impatiently.
"Eat quickly, I still need to go for drinks!"
After saying that, he sat down to observe them. Wherever his gaze fell, the women shrank back, as if being looked at was a disgrace.
At that moment, the bandit caught a glimpse of a face at the very back, and his eyes lit up!
Qin Qing stood in the corner by the door and saw the bandit suddenly stand up and walk towards the dungeon door.
"Hey you inside, come here!"
Following his gaze, Qin Qing looked at the girl inside, but the dim light made it difficult for her to see her clearly.
Seeing that the man remained motionless, the already slightly drunk bandit finally lost his patience, opened the cell door, and brandished a large knife, causing the surrounding refugees to tremble in fear.
Upon seeing this, Qin Qing's eyes lit up, and taking advantage of the bandits' inattention, he quickly moved closer to the prison door.
The bandit gradually approached the girl at the innermost part, his eyes becoming increasingly lewd, before he reached out and grabbed her with his large hand.
"Ah! Don't touch me! Don't touch me!"
The approach of the bandits finally made the girl panic, her beautiful face filled with fear, while the surrounding refugees dared not approach and huddled in the corner.
Just as the bandit was feeling arrogant and triumphant, a wooden stick slammed into his head!
"Bang!" "Ah!!"
The bandit fell to the ground with a thud, his hand just landing on the woman's chest, which made her scream in fright.
Before Qin Qing could even comfort her, her eardrums nearly ruptured. She quickly went over and covered the girl's mouth, about to explain, but the girl struggled even more fiercely! This forced Qin Qing to retreat repeatedly.
The girl felt a foul stench emanating from her; it must be the bandit's disgusting smell. The thought of losing her chastity filled her with despair, and she wished she could bite her tongue and kill herself immediately! The fear that had been suppressed from daytime until now finally erupted.
Seeing that the girl was still struggling and screaming even after she had retreated, Qin Qing finally lost her patience. She was still waiting to save the others. Even if she was traumatized, she should have come to her senses by now, right? There was no time to waste! She slapped her across the face and said in an icy tone.
"I'm here to save people, not to watch you go crazy. That person passed out almost without even touching you. Either come with me or you can go crazy here!"
She doesn't owe her anything; she's just spoiled!
In the darkness, Mu Yue seemed to hear a familiar voice. She slowly raised her head from a corner, her big eyes slightly swollen, clearly having cried for a long time.
"Grandma?"
The hesitant, soft call was immediately drowned out by the girl's scream. Qin Qing, however, keenly sensed something and abruptly turned to look at the small figure in the corner! He quickly moved closer…
"Yueyue?"
The little girl raised her head slightly, looking at the increasingly clear and familiar face. Tears welled up in her eyes again, her pupils widened suddenly, and she looked at her in disbelief.
As Qin Qing approached, she gently bent down and embraced Xiao Muyue's body with both hands, her voice trembling slightly.
"It's Grandma, Yueyue, don't be afraid, Grandma will definitely save you."
Mu Yue pursed her lips, seemingly afraid of being discovered, and began to sob softly, but her face was full of excited joy.
This subtle maturity and intelligence only made Qin Qing feel more heartache, and a bittersweet feeling welled up in her heart.
"Yueyue, be good, let's leave here first."
Mu Yue nodded in her arms. Seeing this, Qin Qing quickly picked her up and felt her even thinner little body, which broke his heart!
She's only been gone a short time! Her granddaughter is even thinner than when she first arrived! The little bit of weight she managed to gain has vanished, leaving her skin and bones. It's clear how miserable she's been lately! What happened?
Thinking of this, she became even more worried about Mu Xing and Zhang He, but Mu Yang should be alright at the academy.
Seeing the woman who called herself Grandma pick up the little girl and leave, the others finally began to believe her identity and quickly got up to follow her.
The girl on the ground hugged her legs and sobbed. Perhaps realizing that no one was paying attention to her, she finally raised her head.
Noticing that almost everyone around her was heading towards the door, she panicked and hurriedly asked in a trembling voice.
"Help, please help me! Please, please help me!"
Qin Qing turned slightly upon hearing the voice, his gaze fixed on her.
"Not calling anymore? If you want to live, come with me!"
After saying that, the girl became even more flustered and helpless.
"I...I can't walk anymore because my legs are too weak."
Having squatted in the corner for so long, her legs were already numb, and coupled with not having eaten all day, her stomach was also extremely uncomfortable. After venting her anger just now, she was completely exhausted.
Qin Qing just frowned, her speechless frustration almost overflowing. First she encountered her mother's nagging, and now she had to deal with her being a burden! Nobody else was this dramatic!
Seeing this, she looked at the ordinary woman beside her and said.
"You help her up. We need to leave as soon as possible. The sound we just heard has most likely been detected."
After saying this, the woman couldn't help but worry and quickly ran over to help the girl up. The group of people then left quickly.
At this moment, Qin Qing suddenly thought of something, picked up the large knife beside her, and prepared to hit the unconscious bandit on the ground a few more times! No one spoke, and they all tacitly approved of her behavior.
However, the girl who had just been nearly defiled thought Qin Qing was going to kill her to silence her, and spoke with a look of pity in her eyes…
“Auntie, wait! Perhaps... we should just let it go! They may be hateful, but that's how the world is. Those who kill will be killed in return. Why be so cruel?”
Qin Qing was taken aback by her words, looked up at her with a surprised and amused expression! Today she had truly witnessed what a saintly white lotus was! Just over a minute ago, this girl was so frightened that she wanted to commit suicide on the spot. If it weren't for her intervention, she would have been defiled long ago. Now she was showing kindness and asking her to spare the bandit's life?
"Did I hear that right? He almost raped you, and you're actually begging for mercy? How pathetic are you! Oh, am I being nosy? Maybe you're actually looking forward to it!"
She risked her life to save people, but was accused of being cruel. I'm speechless.
The girl's face turned pale, as if she had suffered a great shock, and she looked at her in astonishment.
"Auntie, what nonsense are you spouting? How dare you use such words to insult me!"
Qin Qing was too lazy to bother with this oddball; she already didn't have a good impression of her during the day.
Because there were quite a few people, Qin Qing dared not be careless at all. Fortunately, the bandits were all drinking, so they were safe and sound along the way.
