This was the first time Nanmanyuan had ever seen such a horrific scene. He stood there stunned for a moment, feeling both angry and sad.
"Stay calm, stay calm, you're the best!" Nan Yuanman silently cheered herself on, taking two quick steps forward with her short legs, her hands rummaging through her small handbag, her little mouth chattering away:
"Don't be afraid, I'm here to save you. I have a medicine talisman, and your pain will soon be gone."
Feng Jingcheng and Xie Shuyao also came over. After seeing the situation inside, Feng Jingcheng's face instantly darkened, and Xie Shuyao covered her lips, saying, "This..."
"Let's call the police," Feng Jingcheng said to Xie Shuyao, his voice hoarse.
Currently, the laws and regulations concerning animals in Xia State are not yet perfect. Abusing cats and dogs alone is not enough to convict Zhou Baiyu and send him to the police station.
But once people are involved, the nature of the matter changes.
Feng Jingcheng looked at the emaciated, poorly clothed child locked in the cage like a wild animal, and gritted his teeth, cursing under his breath: "Beast..."
Xie Shuyao really didn't hit me hard enough.
Xie Shuyao shakily pulled out her phone and dialed the police, while Feng Jingcheng held his breath and followed Nan Yuanman toward the cage where the little boy was kept, checking on the boy who was curled up in the corner and had already lost consciousness.
The little boy lying on the ground was still confused and didn't understand what was going on.
When Feng Jingcheng tried to take him out of the cage, he reacted violently, moving his body back quickly while screaming, "Don't touch me!!"
Feng Jingcheng stood there, stunned and at a loss.
The little boy realized what was happening, froze on the spot, and looked up at Feng Jingcheng with a fawning smile: "I know, I know this is another test from you, sir, right?"
"Please tell the sir that I will not run away again!" He was filled with panic and fear. "Really! I swear! I will definitely not run away again!"
Seeing his appearance, Feng Jingcheng felt extremely distressed. He opened his mouth and gritted his teeth to explain, "It's not a test. I have nothing to do with that beast. I'm here to save you."
The little boy looked distrustful and stubbornly refused to leave the cage.
While they were struggling, Nan Yuanman was the first to crawl inside and stick the talisman in his hand onto another little boy who was lying unconscious on the ground.
The little boy lying on the ground suddenly narrowed his eyes and crawled quickly towards Nan Yuanman, screaming, "What are you going to do? Come at me! Don't hurt my brother!"
“I didn’t hurt him. I used a medicinal talisman to protect his heart meridian. His condition is not good.” Nan Yuanman quickly stepped back and explained to him, “If I hadn’t used the medicinal talisman to protect his heart meridian, he would have died.”
The little boy still didn't believe them, like an enraged little beast, fiercely protecting the unconscious boy.
While Nan Yuanman's attention was entirely focused on the little boy, in another cage containing two little girls, the slightly older girl was holding something in her hand and slowly approaching the edge of the cage.
Xie Shuyao sensed something and turned around to see the little girl throw a large clump of dried poop onto Feng Jingcheng's back.
Xie Shuyao: "!! Oh my god! Feng Jingcheng, get out of the way!!"
Feng Jingcheng instinctively dodged, and the lump of dried poop brushed against his body and fell to the ground with a thud.
This was just the beginning. No one knew how much dried poop the girl had accumulated, but she kept throwing it out one after another.
Nan Yuanman had picked up cow dung in the countryside, but he had never seen such a scene. He quickly took out a talisman and turned it into a golden shield in front of Feng Jingcheng and himself to block the attack of the excrement.
Helpless, he took Feng Jingcheng and fled outside.
Feng Jingcheng's face turned green, but he couldn't lose his temper, so he said irritably, "The brats inside don't trust us, so we can only wait for the police to arrive."
Xie Shuyao was still shaken by the attack from her father earlier: "This is the only way. I really didn't hit him hard enough."
They should just beat Jason Zhou to death!
Feng Jingcheng nodded in agreement: "Indeed, the blow was too light."
He looked down and saw Nan Yuanman staring thoughtfully into the room. A bad feeling suddenly welled up in his heart: "Bao'er, what are you thinking about?"
"I'm thinking that my talismans are less powerful against people. When someone tries to cause trouble, the talismans might not be able to deter them. But if throwing talismans won't work, I can throw poop instead!"
She witnessed the power of the poop attack, so perhaps... she could store some cow dung in the small coffin?
Xiao Hong: "..."
Realizing what she was thinking, Xiao Hong expressed an exceptionally strong sense of rejection.
No! She didn't want her noble body filled with cow dung!!
Feng Jingcheng: "..."
The thought of pulling out poop instead of talismans after Nan Yuanman made Feng Jingcheng feel terrible. He quickly shook his head and said, "No, no, no, putting aside the deterrent effect of throwing poop, it's unhygienic to hold it in your hand! Do you want to become a smelly brat?"
Nan Yuanman said regretfully, "Then forget it."
However, she can't throw away the poop; she can research talismans that emit a foul odor.
Well, she'll take a good look at it after this is over.
Fortunately, the police didn't make them wait long; they called Xie Shuyao ten minutes later.
Xie Shuyao led Nan Yuanman out of the basement first, leaving Feng Jingcheng to guard the area below.
When Nan Yuanman left the basement, she didn't forget to bring the tabby cat that was still hidden in the operating room.
The tabby cat is very attached to Nan Yuanman. Whenever she holds it, it buries its head in her arms, trying to get inside her clothes.
Nan Yuanman simply pulled his overalls out a bit, stuffed the little tabby cat into his arms, and took it out like that.
After receiving the police, Xie Shuyao led them back to the basement.
Nan Yuanman knew that there was nothing more for her to do, so she didn't stay at the pool but went to the living room.
She hadn't forgotten that there was still someone lying in the living room with a sleeping charm on their face!
But when she got to the living room, she found that the place where Zhou Wenxuan had been lying was empty.
Nan Yuanman scratched his head, looking bewildered: "Huh? Where did everyone go?"
When the maid saw Nan Yuanman, she hurried over and told her, "Miss Nan, are you looking for Young Master Wenxuan? His parents just came to pick him up. He asked me to tell you that we can play together again next time."
Nan Yuanman nodded: "Okay, then I'll play with him again next time."
She still had a good impression of Zhou Wenxuan, who didn't seem very smart but had clear and bright eyes.
I hope he doesn't have a relapse.
She didn't like him when he had an episode.
Now that Zhou Wenxuan had left, Nan Yuanman didn't stay in the living room either, and went back to the swimming pool.
Soon, the police brought in the burly man with a bruised and swollen face, and the unconscious Zhou Baiyu.
Besides them, there were also the four children that Nanmanyuan saw.
When the little boy was brought out by the police, he was still somewhat dazed. He stared blankly at the blue sky and white clouds in front of him, feeling extremely incredulous.
They were really... saved?
That little girl really didn't lie to him.
The little boy pouted and burst into uncontrollable sobs.
He was finally rescued and could finally see his parents again!
Hearing his cries, the police officers felt a mix of sadness, grief, and anger. The stretcher carrying Zhou Baiyu, which they were holding onto, "accidentally" bumped against the edge of the stairs, and Zhou Baiyu tumbled down the stairs amidst their gasps.
"Oops! Sorry, I bumped into him by accident." The doctors gave a perfunctory apology and hurriedly chased after Zhou Baiyu to get him onto a stretcher.
Nan Yuanman was also feeling bad. She pursed her lips and rummaged in her small handbag, pulled out a candy, unwrapped it, ran to the little boy's stretcher, stood on tiptoe and stuffed it into his mouth: "Brother, eat candy, it's very sweet."
The sweet taste of candy filled his mouth. The little boy hadn't tasted sweetness in so long. He looked at Nan Yuanman with sobs and said sincerely, "Th-thank you."
As soon as he finished speaking, a golden light, invisible to ordinary people, slowly emanated from his body and gently landed on Nan Yuanman.
Nan Yuanman's mind cleared, and several strands of merit power returned to his spiritual center.
She smiled and said, "You're welcome."
She didn't just give them to the little boy; besides the little boy who was rushed away due to the critical situation, she also took out a few and gave them to the two little girls.
What happened next had nothing to do with Nan Yuanman; Xie Shuyao took over the entire matter, including settling the rescued cats and dogs.
Feng Jingcheng and Nan Yuanman went to give their statements, and then got into the car and went home.
After getting into the car, Feng Jingcheng belatedly realized: "Wait a minute, Zhou Baiyu was so enthusiastic in inviting us to his house, could he have ulterior motives towards you?"
He had just seen it; the little girl who was locked up was only five or six years old, the same age as Yuanman.
If he had no ulterior motives, why would he invite someone to his home after just one meeting?
Just then, Feng Jingcheng's phone rang. He took it out and saw that it was a message from Xie Shuyao containing some information she had just found.
Feng Jingcheng's face suddenly turned extremely ugly: "Damn it!"
"That bastard is a pedophile!"
