She blinked in disbelief...
plastic bag!
They were all wrapped in a black plastic bag!
Zhou Chunhua carefully opened it, and a letter suddenly appeared before her eyes.
young people:
When you see this letter, that's when you need help.
But there's not much I can tell you. But please remember, no matter how desperate your situation, you must hold onto hope for survival!
If you have time, you can take a look through this diary; hopefully, you can find the information you need.
A few simple words instantly helped Zhou Chunhua adjust her mindset.
Yes! If there is no hope left, then we really will never be able to leave these mountains.
Looking at the yellowed paper and the neat pencil writing, one feels incredibly heartbroken.
This letter must have been written many years ago.
In other words, for many years, the woman had been looking for an opportunity to leave Sha Tin Tsui.
In the end, she still couldn't leave.
She felt deeply guilty; if only she had been more capable, perhaps…
Unfortunately, there are no "maybes" in this world!
After adjusting her mindset, she opened her yellowed diary.
At a glance, she was shocked by the tear stains and dark red bloodstains on the paper.
The crooked, red handwriting didn't look like it was written with a pen.
The entire page of dark red writing was the same color as the blood droplets on the paper.
In other words... these words... were written in blood?
Zhou Chunhua's hands trembled.
She couldn't believe that under what circumstances would someone use blood as ink?
After taking a deep breath, I began to read it carefully.
Chen Xue, you must never forget that your name is Chen Xue!
Your home is in Shilitun, Anshun.
My father's name is Chen Qun, and my mother's name is Zhang Mingyu.
You are the eldest child in your family; you also have a younger sister and a younger brother.
You are not from Sha Tin Tsui, nor are you Wu Hao's wife.
You must remember, you were abducted by them! You were forced by Wu Hao!
Remember! No matter what, you must survive!
Everyone needs to go home!
My father still needs money for medical treatment, and my younger siblings still need to be raised.
Mom has held on for so many years, she's almost at her breaking point, and you! You are the hope of the whole family, so you must live, you must go back...
Some of the writing in the latter half of the text was covered by bloodstains, making it impossible to discern what had been written there.
Zhou Chunhua could only guess roughly.
The entire piece is Chen Xue's own account.
Although the sentences are somewhat disjointed, it clearly explains how she was abducted and brought here.
The year Chen Xue was abducted was also the year she received her university admission notice.
This is what she wrote in her diary.
Her father was injured while working a few years ago.
However, because the family was too poor and could not afford treatment, it was delayed.
Her mother inquired about folk remedies, then went up the mountain to dig up herbs and applied them to the injured area.
To everyone's surprise, the wound not only failed to heal, but began to worsen.
From that time onward, her father would occasionally have a fever and faint.
Her mother raised the three siblings alone, but could only cry helplessly in the dead of night.
Chen Xue saw this scene by chance when she got up to use the bathroom in the middle of the night.
That day, she made up her mind.
She knew that reading was essential for children from poor families, as it was the only way to change their fate.
But she had to find a way to pay for her studies herself.
Only then did he take his admission notice and go out to work and earn money.
She had planned everything out. After receiving her salary, she not only had enough for her university tuition, but she could also send the rest home so that her mother could take her father to a major hospital for treatment.
However, she was tricked into going to Sha Tin Tsui by a job advertisement that someone had slipped into her hand.
On the day she entered the village, the person who had tricked her into coming took her to Wu Hao's house.
Wu Hao was overjoyed when he heard that she had been admitted to university.
That very day, Wu Hao hosted a banquet and invited everyone in the village.
Little did Chen Xue know that it was her wedding banquet.
That night, she cried until her voice was hoarse, but no one came to her rescue.
In her unbearable pain, she became Wu Hao's wife.
After that, Chen Xue did not sit idly by and wait for her fate.
She tried to ask others for help.
However, what she didn't expect was that the entire village not only colluded with Wu Hao, but they even followed his lead.
Soon, the letter she sent out for help reached Wu Hao's hands.
For this, Wu Hao broke her leg and then imprisoned her in a mountain jail for seven days.
Zhou Chunhua noticed the words 'mountain prison'.
Keep reading.
During these seven days, Chen Xue not only did not eat a single grain of food, but also had to be on guard against poisonous snakes and wild beasts every night.
She doesn't remember when she lost consciousness, only that when she woke up, she was already at Wu Hao's house.
Medicine was applied to the broken leg, and there was some cooked porridge beside the bed.
That same day, Wu Hao told her that unless she died, she would never be able to escape from here.
In order to find another group of like-minded people, Chen Xue softened her attitude.
She stopped threatening suicide and started eating and taking her medicine obediently.
After her leg injury healed, she started cooking and doing laundry for Wu Hao, and even tried to please Wu Hao's parents.
Wu Hao's parents also began to brainwash her.
First, they changed her name, and then they told her every day how good Wu Hao was.
While she was putting all her effort into making Wu Hao's family lower their guard, she was also looking for another opportunity to escape from Sha Tin Tsui.
The start of the school year is fast approaching.
Finally, her opportunity arrived.
Wu Hao was out that day and wouldn't be back for a week.
More than half of the able-bodied men in the village were also with Wu Hao on his business trip.
This means that as long as she escapes the mountains and forests, she can escape this hellhole.
So that night, she sneaked out of Wu Hao's house when his parents weren't looking.
Fortunately, because there were fewer people in the village, she was able to find her way out of the village without any problems.
However, just as she was finding her way out of the place based solely on her memory, a dozen dogs came chasing after her.
Chen Xue was terrified and, disregarding her surroundings, began running wildly through the woods.
Perhaps it was because she was very lucky, but she followed the stream downstream and finally found the main road.
And on the other side of the main road, they found another seven or eight households.
Chen Xue ran and crawled to one of the houses, begging for their help.
Who would have thought that those people, who promised to call the police for her, would turn around and bring the people who were chasing her in Sha Tin Tsui to their home.
That day, she was beaten and bruised all over in front of everyone.
It was at this moment that Chen Xue learned that those seven or eight households were actually the sentry post of Sha Tin Tsui.
Their purpose is to stop people from escaping from Sha Tin Tsui.
Zhou Chunhua couldn't help but swallow...
