Chapter 48
"Your mother? What happened to her?" Lin Ruo was stunned.
"She, she..." Xiaohua looked at the people around her and seemed to be hesitant to speak. It can be seen that she had something to say, but she didn't say it because there were too many people around her.
Lin Ruo noticed and took her to a place not far away. He lowered his head and looked at her, then asked softly, "What happened to your mother?"
“I, I…”
"My dad is going to beat her to death, you should go and have a look." She was very anxious, her eyes full of tears.
Lin Ruo turned her head and looked at the people behind her. Her gaze went from Zhou Yuewan to Qin Yu, and finally to Lu Anyu. Then she looked back at her: "Wait a moment."
She walked to Lu Anyu and whispered to him, "Can you go somewhere with me?"
He turned to look at Lu Zhaozhao next to him. She immediately understood and whispered to Zhou Yuewan, "Please help watch over Zhaozhao for a while. Don't let her go out alone. If she needs to go out, you should go with her and Qin Yu."
Although she didn't understand why she said that, Zhou Yuewan was still helpful and nodded immediately: "Okay, I will."
So she brought Lu Anyu back to Xiaohua and said, "Let's go."
The moment she saw him, Xiaohua was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Okay." She walked in front and the two followed behind.
After going around several trees, she led the two of them into the mountains. Lin Ruo was careful and threw some scraps of writing on the ground as a mark, but she didn't expect that they could walk straight out of the mountain.
Behind this was a house. Xiaohua pushed open the iron gate and invited the two in: "Come in."
Seeing her like this, Lin Ruo's heart started to ring alarm bells. She didn't move, but stood not far away and looked over: "What happened to your mother?"
"Sister, you'll know if you go in and take a look." At this moment, she had wiped away her tears and raised her hand to point to the yard.
Just as she was hesitating about how to refuse to go in, a man walked out of the yard: "Xiaohua, who is coming?"
Xiaohua was stunned, and quickly ran to Lin Ruo and Lu Anyu, pointing to a place not far away, and whispered, "Hide quickly."
Although he didn't know why, Lin Ruo still took Lu Anyu to hide nearby.
"Xiaohua, who are you talking to?" The man came out, still leaning on a cane.
"Dad, didn't you go out to sell breakfast? Why are you at home today?" Xiaohua took two steps to the side, looked at him and asked with a smile.
"What? I can't be at home? Did I feed the pigs?" The man raised his hand and swung the crutch at her.
Xiaohua seemed to be used to it and took two steps to the side: "Not yet, I'll be there soon."
"That's good to know. Hurry up and go." The man pointed at her with his crutch, then turned around and went back.
Xiaohua stood there and watched for a while before turning around and running over, whispering to the two of them, "Wait a minute."
After saying that, he walked in quickly, leaving Lin Ruo and Lu Anyu standing there looking at each other.
They didn't know what she meant by leaving them here.
Lin Ruo felt that the man just now was very strange. He didn't look like he had any problems with his legs and feet, but he was still using a cane. He looked like an honest and decent man, but his attitude towards his daughter was a bit excessive.
It seems that there is something worth digging into. Could it be that the black aura on Xiaohua is related to him?
If I knew what was going on, I couldn't say I could save her.
Xiaohua walked up to the two of them again, waved at them, pointed inside and whispered, "Inside."
Lin Ruo and Lu Anyu glanced at each other, then followed her and walked into the yard together. There seemed to be a pigpen on the far left, and the two followed her.
Go feed the pigs? This was the first thought that came to Lin Ruo's mind.
But when they got there and looked into the pigpen, they found no pigs. So why did the man just say he was coming to feed the pigs? What was going on?
Just as she was wondering, something seemed to move in the pigpen. She looked over immediately and saw a woman in tattered clothes and messy hair crawling out with iron chains tied on her hands and feet.
Xiaohua immediately walked in, picked up the steamed bun next to her and handed it over: "It's time to eat."
The woman ignored her completely, kept her head down, and kept mumbling. Lin Ruo leaned in to listen and it seemed that she was speaking French.
Woman, chain, French, these words put together, she instantly thought of the reason, turned her head to look at Lu Anyuna, who seemed to have the same idea as her and nodded: "Yeah."
She looked at the door again, afraid that the man would come out, waved at Xiaohua, and pointed at the door, indicating that she should go out and talk.
"Okay." The three of them walked out of the yard and came to a place a certain distance away from here.
She grasped her shoulders and asked softly, "That woman just now should be your mother, right?"
Xiaohua was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Yeah."
"So, do you want us to rescue her?" she asked again, wanting to confirm her thoughts.
"Well, she doesn't belong here, please save her and leave." Xiaohua turned her head and then nodded.
"Why choose us?" Lin Ruo was still a little curious and didn't quite understand why she was chosen.
"Because I think you are capable. You rescued us that night." Xiaohua turned her head and looked at her with determination in her eyes. As she said this, the black aura on her body faded. At this moment, Lin Ruo understood that she was doing this because of her mother.
"I can't guarantee that I can rescue her, but I will try my best." Lin Ruo knew that he couldn't be too sure.
"Thank you, sister." Xiaohua bent down and wanted to kneel down, but was stopped by her, so she bent down to express her gratitude instead.
"I'll try my best." She sighed and turned to look at Lu Anyu next to her. He nodded at her, indicating that he would help her.
"Do you know your mother's home? Where should we take her?" Rescuing her is not the goal, we also need to know where she should return to next.
"This address is the place she has been mumbling about for the past few years." Xiaohua took out a messy piece of paper from her arms, unfolded it and handed it over.
Lin Ruo looked at the word "Baishishan" written on the paper. She must be from there. She took out her phone and checked. She found that there were about ten places called Baishishan. Which one was her home? If she asked Xiaohua, she probably wouldn't know.
Just then, her cell phone rang. It was Qin Yu calling. He probably asked because he saw that she hadn't been back for a long time.
She walked to the side and picked up the phone, then turned to look at Xiaohua not far away, and then replied to him: "Well, I have something to deal with here, and then I will be back."
"Okay, right away, don't worry." She put down her phone and walked back.
"Xiaohua, you little bitch, where have you been?" The man came out of the yard and shouted angrily. Although the distance was far, the sound could still be heard.
Xiaohua turned her head and looked twice, said please to the two of them, then turned around and left.
The remaining two looked at each other, and finally Lin Ruo said, "Let's go back and think of a solution, and by the way, find out where this place is."
She believed that even if the woman was rescued, there was no way to take her away, but if the person who came was the woman's relative, then it would be reasonable.
Therefore, the most important task now is to find the woman's relatives, but there are no other clues except the three words "Baishishan". Moreover, time is quite urgent. We can stay for another day tomorrow and have to set off the day after tomorrow.
She and Lu Anyu were both thinking in their hearts as they walked back to the B&B.
But she still felt a little dizzy walking in the mountains. If it weren't for the powder she sprinkled on the ground, she would have no way to find the way back.
It didn't take Xiaohua long to bring them here, but it took them a full hour to walk back.
When we arrived at the door of the B&B, we saw Lu Zhaozhao, Qin Yu, Zhou Yuewan and Zhou Xiaojun standing there.
When they saw the two of them, Lu Zhaozhao and Qin Yu quickly came over, and Zhou Yuewan followed behind and complained, "These two kids had to come out and wait for you."
"By the way, Ruoruo, where did you go? Why did you come back just now?" She looked at her again and asked.
Lin Ruo raised her eyes to glance at the camera behind her and smiled: "Nothing, just taking a walk."
"Yeah, just take a walk." Lu Anyu also nodded in agreement.
Are they just walking around? Going out together?
[Isn't that little girl here to talk to them about something? I remember it like this.]
[I think so, but why did the two of them come back and say this? ]
[I discovered that Lin Ruo is always hiding some secrets from us.]
[Yes, she was sneaky, afraid of being discovered.]
[He feels guilty! He must have done something bad, otherwise why would he be so afraid of being found out?]
If it's good news, she wants everyone to know.
[That's right, I think so too. So what exactly is Lin Ruo hiding? I'm really curious.]
"I don't know, but I'm curious about a lot of things. She seems to have hidden three or four things."
Something's wrong. Nine out of ten things are wrong. What on earth were they doing? Are they secretly dating?
[You mean Lu Anyu and Lin Ruo? How could that be possible? They're both so polite, with all the Mr. Lu and Ms. Lin references. How could they possibly be together? I swear to you that if they're together, I'll eat shit live on TV.]
【Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha then I want them both to be together, because I want to watch you eat shit live.】
[Add one plus one, I have the same idea. When it can be realized, I will go and see it. ]
[I'll leave a message for Lin Ruo and Lu Anyu later, asking them to stay together.]
While everyone was discussing frantically, a few people had already walked in, and Lin Ruo took Qin Yu to the place where there was no live camera.
Seeing her expression, Qin Yu knew that something must have happened, so he followed her obediently.
"Do you know this place called Baishishan?" She stopped and turned to ask her.
"Baishishan? Sounds familiar." He lowered his head and muttered softly.
Lin Ruo was just asking casually, but when she saw him like this, she immediately stared at him with wide eyes.
"It seems that Meng Mian's original home is there. Why don't we ask him?" He thought for a long time, then took out his cell phone.
