Chapter 29 Yihong Courtyard (I)
But Lin Yue was glowing white. Even before coming in, she had already painted a layer of ash on her face, making it look a little sallow, but her exposed hands and neck were all lustrous white. The human traffickers in the county town had long been eyeing this girl who came to see the world.
But their stalking was extremely clever. When one person spotted someone, another person would follow him, and the one who took action would also be replaced. This way, the probability of success would be much greater. Lin Yue, who was immersed in his own thoughts, did not pay any attention to the tail behind him.
The city gate is just across the deserted alley. Lin Yue froze while holding the cloth with a silly smile. She didn't expect that she would be targeted on her first time entering the city. She was dressed so tatteredly, so the man must be a human trafficker if not a thief.
Lin Yue's smiling eyes turned sharp. She had been planning to wait two days before dealing with these bad guys, but now that you have bumped into me on your own accord, don't blame me for dealing with you.
"Little girl, it's so late. It's dangerous to be outside alone. Do you want your uncle to take you home?"
A skinny man with a pointed face and monkey cheeks, only about 1.6 meters tall, squinting his eyes in a lewd way, and speaking in a disgusting way.
Are human traffickers so greasy?
Isn't this a pimp who specializes in kidnapping women?
There was already some distance between the two of them, and the alley was dim, making it even harder to see the expression on Lin Yue's face.
Therefore, he did not see her cold eyes. He thought that he had met such a good guy just by spending money this time. His mother would definitely give him at least thirty taels of silver, so that he could marry a wife and have a warm home with his children.
He had already thought about marrying a virgin girl, and the envious and jealous expressions of others made him laugh inadvertently.
"No, my house is nearby. Don't come over. I'm calling for help."
Lin Yue pretended to be panic-stricken, and her tone was also flustered, which confused the other party very well.
There were more footsteps coming from the back of the alley, also from a grown man.
"You can scream, but there's no one here. Even if you scream your throat out, no one will come to save you. Haha, it's our destiny to get rich today."
The man behind her rushed over and grabbed Lin Yue's shoulders with great force, squeezing them so hard that it hurt.
Lin Yue resisted the urge to kick the guy in front of her away. She pretended to struggle and scream like an innocent little girl. She even bit the other person's hand while suppressing her nausea. However, the strong smell of sweat almost made her vomit.
The wretched man strode forward and stuffed a piece of cloth into Lin Yue's mouth, and touched her cheek.
"You damn bitch, I gave you face, but you dared to bite your uncle."
“Pah.”
The man who was bitten pulled his hand away and slapped Lin Yue hard. Lin Yue fell to the ground, cursing in her heart, saying that she would make them pay if she succeeded.
"Don't break her. We all rely on her to make money. This girl is so beautiful. If she breaks her, mom will definitely be picky and deduct our money. Don't be so stingy with money!"
The wretched man took out another handkerchief with a knockout drug on it, which was specifically used to knock women unconscious to prevent them from struggling or escaping during transportation.
Lin Yue held her breath, and after a few seconds, she pretended to inhale the medicine and fell softly to the ground.
Lin Yue felt as if her hands and feet were tied, and she was put into a sack, carried on her shoulders, and walked through the streets in a swaggering manner. No one cared what was inside the sack.
Lin Yue smelled the scent of cheap powder, which became stronger and stronger. Sure enough, they were pimps who specialized in trafficking women. In ancient times, women generally did not go out of the main door or the second door, and even if they went out, they were accompanied by servants. Those who went out alone were mostly poor people. Lin Yue was dressed in tattered clothes and had a cold temperament. In the eyes of the two pimps, she was just a down-and-out convict.
Such women are their best targets. These fugitives were originally ladies from wealthy families. Not only are they delicate and tender, but they are also good at various arts such as music, chess, calligraphy and painting. With a little training, they can become the mainstays of brothels and will be more sought after by wealthy gentlemen.
Even if their families found out their children were missing and reported the matter, no one would care. The fugitives could hardly enter the city in their entire lives. Even if they did, they had no money to go to a brothel like this, so the chances of being discovered were slim.
So you can imagine how excited the two brothers were when they saw a lone fugitive.
"Mom, I brought you a nice item today, but you have to give us a good price!"
The wretched man laughed and shouted at the yawning madam.
Zhang Lihua had a gloomy face and stared at the two of them unkindly. Even when she heard that it was good stuff, her mood did not improve much.
We were open for business all night and just sent all the masters out at noon today. I was lying in bed for less than two hours when these two brats woke me up. If it wasn't for something serious, I would definitely have had someone beat them up today.
"What good stuff is there that's worth all the fuss? Mom, I've seen at least eight thousand women. Could it be a princess who's been stranded out there?"
With a slightly sarcastic tone, he said that he was not interested.
"Mom, although she's not a princess, isn't she more sought after as a fairy in heaven? How can a rich and beautiful woman on earth compare to the aloof and noble fairy in heaven? Do you think she's a fairy in heaven?"
The man who was bitten grabbed open his pocket and looked at the madam with interest. This time he was determined to bite off a piece of flesh from her.
The madam was originally very impatient, but when she saw the woman lying on the ground, she was shocked.
Her thin, curved eyebrows resemble willow leaves, and her nose is straight, like a snow-capped mountain, both noble and tough. The cherry blossom pink of her lips adds a touch of elegance, like the snow in the cold winter, cold and noble. Her exposed neck is as white as jade, as if she has never experienced the dust of the world. The corners of her eyes are slightly upturned, like cold stars, revealing a hint of alienation and elegance.
What a cool beauty.
"Tell me quickly, where did you find such a good thing? Is there any risk? You are really lucky this time. Look at this little face and this figure. Mom will definitely package you into the most popular girl in our Yihongyuan."
The madam already had a face full of wrinkles, but now when she smiled, she looked even more like a chrysanthemum, making it hard to look at her.
"Once the name of the Moon Fairy comes out, I can guarantee that the gentlemen of Lingnan will absolutely go crazy. They are used to eating rich fish and meat, and simple porridge and small dishes. Suddenly, there comes a beauty that they can't touch. It would be strange if they don't go crazy.
Since she is a fairy in heaven, there is no reason for her to entertain guests or lose her virginity. She should be a stable prostitute and raise her wealth to the highest level, so that she can become her mother's cash cow.
Oh, none of the clothes and jewelry in the building are suitable for her. I need to go and get a custom-made outfit."
Lin Yue, who was pretending to be unconscious, felt a raging fire burning in her heart when she heard them talking unscrupulously about how to maximize their own value. She would not be a human being if she did not burn down this devil's den.
