Chapter 319: For now, we can only send out more spirit beasts before we proceed to the next step of the search.
"I've sent people to inquire around the village and search everywhere, but there's still no news. It's like they've disappeared from the face of the earth!"
Ruan Qingsong suddenly felt a pain in his heart, and he slammed the table and stood up in anger.
"Why didn't the criminals even spare the children?! They are so brazen!"
"I'm going to find Mr. Xue right now. Even if I have to turn the whole village upside down, I'm going to find the whereabouts of these children!"
At this moment, Ruan Mian did not stop him and let Ruan Qingsong go to find Mr. Xue and incite other villagers to join in.
Except for her, everyone else in the room seemed to have lost their composure, like a headless fly, not knowing what to do.
Even though Wang was usually calm and composed, she panicked when her child was lost.
Ruan Mian calmed himself down and asked Wang to get the clothes that Lin Ge'er usually wore.
At present, we can only send out more spirit beasts and then proceed to the next step of the search.
At this time, in an underground cave in the mountains, the strong smell of peat filled the air, and if you smell it too much, you will feel dizzy.
It was from this stimulating smell that Aunt Shen woke up.
As she looked at the darkness around her, her consciousness gradually cleared. Recalling why she had come here, she felt a surge of indescribable emotions.
Memories also emerged.
She still remembered that she was doing homework in the yard with Lin Ge'er and Rui Ge'er. Because Lin Ge'er's kite had somehow ended up on a tree outside the yard, they had to go get it back.
I followed behind them.
However, she just warned the children not to climb the tree, but she felt a sharp pain in her neck and before she could react, her eyes went dark and she passed out.
When I woke up again, I was here.
After fully waking up, Nanny Shen wanted to get up in fear, but she didn’t expect that her limbs were tied up with ropes.
She could only shout anxiously: "Lin'er, Lin'er!! Where are you? I'm Mama!"
However, it was so quiet all around that only her echo could be heard.
It was so creepy that his eyes widened involuntarily.
This looks like a cave?
After a while, it suddenly became bright here!
She opened her eyes wide with fear and looked carefully. She saw an old woman holding a candle and walking towards her.
After looking more carefully, she discovered that there were several children lying behind the old woman!
Among those children were Lin Ge'er and Rui Ge'er! She would recognize these two children even if they turned into ashes.
"Lin'er? Lin'er! Rui'er! Come and see Aunt Shen!"
She called out urgently, but no matter how she shouted, the children showed no response and continued to lie on the ground motionless.
Aunt Shen was even more frightened. She looked at the old woman standing in front of her and was shocked to find that her face was so familiar!
When she thought about it carefully, she remembered that this was Aunt Yan from the village.
Some time ago, her son and daughter-in-law shamelessly almost killed Mrs. Hai. In order to have descendants of the Yan family, they even came up with the idea of surrogacy, which made everyone laugh.
They died because of their own fault, but they didn't expect that the old woman and her son and daughter-in-law were birds of the same feather!
"what you up to!?"
"These children are the apple of their families' eyes. How can you bear to let them suffer? They are so young! What are your intentions, old woman?!"
Nanny Shen struggled a bit, but the ropes that bound her limbs were too tight, leaving her no room to break free.
The old woman just sneered a few times, her expression didn't change much, and her dark eyes were filled with resentment.
"Yes, the children are the apple of their eyes. I raised them for so many years, but now!"
Nanny Shen's eyes tightened, and she said suddenly: "You old woman, if your son and daughter-in-law hadn't done such a heartless thing, how could they have fallen to this point?"
"Not only are you aiding and abetting the evil, you're also trying to bring harm to innocent people..."
“Shut up!” Before Nanny Shen could finish, the old woman interrupted her angrily and threw the candlestick aside.
Only a faint flame was still struggling.
The old woman's face changed drastically: "No matter what, my son is gone! I want those people to be buried with my son!"
"Old woman, you've fallen into this situation, don't even think I can let you go!"
"Look at those children. If I hadn't let them go, they would have died here. However... if you just agree to cooperate with me on one thing, there will be a chance for a change."
“Otherwise…not to mention that you can’t leave here, none of those children will leave alive.” When Nanny Shen heard this, her face changed suddenly!
"What on earth do you want to do?! With so many people in the village, aren't you afraid of being found and beaten to death by the authorities?!"
"Death? I'm already this old, there's nothing good to live for. Miss Wen is right, I've long had nowhere to go. Now, just seeing the glory of the Ruan family, I can't swallow the anger in my heart!"
"If they had just let my son go, why would our Yan family have to be exterminated? Why would I have to suffer this? My son didn't do anything to Chen, so why would they treat our family like this?"
"Just because they can grow some food, do you think we're nothing? Aren't they still fugitives like us? No matter how they reform, they're still fugitives!"
The old woman became more and more excited as she spoke, her scarlet eyes like a wild beast.
She glared at Aunt Shen fiercely: "You are under the protection of Wang Shi, you don't have to worry about food and clothing, and you have no children, so naturally you don't understand anything!"
"But now you've disappeared along with the Wang family's lifeblood. If you return alone, and the child is a corpse, do you think the Wang family will let you go?"
Nanny Shen's heart trembled!
Although the eldest lady was indeed nice to him, that was also because he took good care of Lin Ge'er.
She knew very well how important Lin Ge'er was in the Eldest Lady's heart, and she also knew that the Eldest Lady was not a pushover in secret. If something really happened to Lin Ge'er and she returned safely, the Eldest Lady would never forgive her.
She will definitely not let me go when the time comes.
Perhaps seeing Aunt Shen’s pale face and seeing the panic in her heart, the old woman grabbed her hand.
"I was right, wasn't I? You're going to die anyway, but if you can help me deal with Ruan, you still have a chance to survive."
The old woman threw a steamed bun to her and said, "Whether you live or die depends on your choice."
Nanny Shen gasped for breath and looked at the children with difficulty.
"What did you feed them?"
"They are still alive and very useful, but if we fail, they will be buried with us."
Nanny Shen's body trembled, her eyes trembling, and the old woman slapped her!
