Chapter 162 Chapter 161 The Boy in the Cellar

The wife of the landlord Qian looked at An Xin and the others. After tying them up, she did not leave immediately. Instead, she found a place to sit down and rest.

He looked relaxed and at ease, as if he were at home, but he got angry and cursed fiercely.

An Xin, who was resting in a chair, pointed to Gao Tai and Chen Qibao at the rag hanging next to the table in the corner.

"Block it, so she won't bark at night and disturb the neighbors."

The Qian family servants, who were all gagged, said that they felt aggrieved. They were all so obedient.

They were not the ones who spoke abusively, so why did this big devil punish people and also punish the whole group?

An Xin glanced at the eyes looking at him, indicating that this is who I am, "What do you think?"

The servants silently withdrew their gazes.

"..."Who dares to have any objection to this big devil? With that level of fighting power, aren't you afraid of being beaten to death by her?

Kong Xun, Yuchi Yi, Jiang Chenxi, Gao Tai and Chen Qibao went in, moved out chairs and sat down, and told An Xin what happened that day.

Just as everyone sat down to rest and prepared to wait until dawn, they sent the Qian family members to Lord Tang Sicheng, who would arrive tomorrow as agreed with An Xin, for disposal.

Suddenly, a mute old woman ran in from the gate of the courtyard. When she met the fierce gaze of the landlord Qian's wife, she trembled with fear.

Then he knelt down firmly in front of An Xin and the others, pointing in a direction and shouting “Ahhhh”.

An Xin looked at the anxiety on the old woman's face and didn't want to fake it, but the human mind is hard to predict. The ancients might have been able to do the same thing as well.

Yuchi Yi and Jiang Chenxi were more skilled in martial arts. An Xin looked at them and said, "You two and Xiao Qibao, Kong Xun stay here to watch these people. Gao Tai and I will go over to see what happened."

"Why not let Yuchi go with you?" Jiang Chenxi was also worried that there might be a trap.

An Xin: "There are too many people here. If something happens, you and Xiao Qibao may not be able to handle it alone."

Kong Xun: “???” Am I not a human being?

“……”Those who don’t have martial arts skills don’t need to speak at this time.

Jiang Chenxi thought of his female teacher's terrifying fighting ability and felt that his worries were somewhat unnecessary.

An Xin took Gao Tai and followed the mute woman to more and more remote places, until they reached the corner of the courtyard, where the mute woman stopped.

She pushed aside the firewood under the shed.

At this time, An Xin also heard faint noises coming from under the firewood pile.

Seeing a cellar entrance gradually revealed under the pile of firewood that had been taken away, the mute woman pointed, walked forward and forcefully opened the lid.

The mute woman took a lantern placed nearby and illuminated the dark cellar entrance. An Xin pulled Gao Tai, who was about to look down.

Even with the lanterns, the light was limited. Gao Tai was still young after all, and An Xin was afraid that there was something in the cellar that would scare him again.

Wherever I go, I look down.

An Xin frowned tightly at this sight. He could vaguely see a few thin children, but as for their exact age, it was difficult to tell because it was too dark.

An Xin handed the rope in his hand to Gao Tai, "Tie her up."

Gao Tai paused, looking at his female teacher who looked like a bandit in confusion. Why did she tie up the mute old woman for no reason?

An Xin held his forehead and looked at Gao Tai with disdain. He had just gotten rid of those two idiots, An Rui and Liu Boxing, and here there was someone even more stupid than them.

I had to teach him on the spot, hoping that he would learn to think and become smarter when encountering things in the future: "What does the dumb woman want to do by bringing us here?"

Gao Tai scratched the back of his head, glanced at the cellar, and answered hesitantly: "Does she want us to rescue the people inside?"

"Yes." An Xin continued to guide Gao Tai to use his brain, which had not been used for thousands of years: "But if we want to save people, what should we do?"

"Someone has to go down." Gao Tai's eyes lit up, and he suddenly realized: "The teacher is worried that if the mute woman is a bad person, she will attack me after you go down, so she asked me to tie it up."

An Xin was relieved that at least he was not completely stupid and there was still hope.

By the way, I gave my stupid disciple a wise saying: "Don't have the intention to harm others, but be on guard against others."

When teachers and students talk to each other, they never have the habit of talking about each other behind their backs.

In front of the mute woman, they asked and answered questions and had a happy chat.

No matter how the dumb woman waved her hands to show that she was not a bad person, in the end the young man, who had learned to be on guard against others, tied her up with a rope neither too tight nor too loose and put her aside.

"I'll let you go for now, but I'll let you go once my master comes up."

After all, he was not a vicious person. Gao Tai tied up the mute woman and comforted her with kind words.

The mute woman knew that they were not bad people, they were just afraid that she would have bad intentions and harm them, so she was on guard against them. So she did not resist and just lay there quietly.

An Xin carried a lantern and went down to the dark and damp cellar, where she saw several boys about twelve or thirteen years old huddled inside, looking at her with dull eyes and trembling bodies.

When An Xin saw the scars on the boys' necks and arms, her eyes narrowed and a sharp light flashed across them.

Soften your voice: "Don't be afraid, I will take you out."

When An Xin stretched out his arms and picked up a boy, he subconsciously struggled for a moment, then his body stiffened and numbly and he closed his eyes.

An Xin pursed her lips and said nothing to comfort them. No matter how much she said now, it would not be able to erase the hurt and fear they had experienced.

After several trips back and forth, An Xin brought all three boys up. Looking at their frightened expressions, he frowned and walked over to untie the rope of the mute woman.

"We'll go back first. Boil some hot water for them to wash, and then get them some food."

The mute woman nodded.

An Xin and Gao Tai, who had remained silent since seeing the boys, left.

Walking out of the yard, An Xin turned around and said, "You know what happened to them, right?"

Gao Tai pursed his thick lips. He didn't know this before, but since he learned what Qian Dadi wanted to do to them, he was kicked by Jiang Chenxi.

He was so angry that he wanted to sell them out to that extent. After he explained it to them, he understood a little bit.

"Yes, I know."

An Xin and the others returned to the courtyard where the landlord Qian lived. They saw Jiang Chenxi and Kong Xun sitting there drinking tea, Yuchi Yi closing his eyes to rest, and the youngest, Chen Qibao, was snoring if he saw correctly. "You're back. Is everything okay over there?"

An Xin told a few people what had just happened. Yuchi Yi, who had already opened his eyes and was in a bad mood, suddenly stood up and was about to kick the landlord Qian who was kicked to death by An Xin.

"Let me kill this beast."

An Xin held him back, "Don't worry, he won't end up well. Don't beat him to death, we'll need his confession in the next case."
