Chapter 90 Rescue

Erzhuang was afraid that he would not get the money, so he let them in.

A group of people came in with their belongings to rob, and stabbed the pillow with a hoe.

"Brother, it's empty!"

Many people shouted at the same time, "No one!"

Someone went out and brought back a handful of firewood, and when he shone it into the house, he found that all the people who had moved in that day were gone.

"Er Zhuang, did you hide the person? Where is the person?"

Er Zhuang was confused: "Why would I hide them? I didn't even know you were going to rob me at night."

"Hey! I just don't believe it. There are more than a dozen living people on both sides. How can they just disappear out of thin air?"

"By the way, didn't the family next door host a whole house of guests? What about the family of Daniu?"

A man ran in and asked them, "Brothers, have you seen anyone? There is no one in Da Niu's house."

It's magical and haunted.

More than a dozen living people were gone.

At this time, a dozen living people were following the woman into a remote cave.

"Just call me Si Niang."

She had a great skill in embroidery, and her embroidery was even selected as tribute.

But in this place, no one cares.

They bought them to do housework, farm work and give birth to children.

Worse than pigs and dogs.

She introduced softly, "When you came, they had moved everyone there."

"Every time outsiders come to this village, the newcomers are placed here."

"Only those who have stayed for a long time, have given birth to children, and whom they feel have voluntarily stayed can stay outside."

But who said that they would be willing to stay after giving birth to the child?

It was her motherly love that prevented her from strangling those children to death.

But she could only pretend to be willing.

The cave was pitch black and cold in winter, but those people could not have been considerate enough to prepare charcoal fire.

Everyone can only hug each other for warmth.

“Found it.”

A strange voice sounded in their ears. Perhaps the guests who came to the village had left and they were being taken back?

In order to prevent them from being frightened if they entered rashly, Yu Shi asked the woman who led the way to go in and explain the situation.

Si Niang walked in and explained the current situation: "They are government officials, and they are here to rescue us."

"Let's go quickly, this opportunity is rare."

She thought it would go smoothly, but she didn't expect anyone to object.

"People in government offices cannot be trusted. Last time I ran away to file a complaint, I was brought back by the bailiffs."

“Who knows if they are trying to trick us or if they are testing us?”

After this was said, the others also got entangled. If they escaped and were caught again, they would be beaten and locked in a dog cage.

That place is not meant for locking people up. You can't even stretch your arms and legs. You can only bend your knees and curl up, with your back bent all the time. There is no space even to change positions.

When they remember it, release them.

Maybe a few days later.

There is no food to eat.

Soon people couldn't bear it anymore.

The only one who escaped and survived was the woman who spoke.

But some people still stood up and said, "What's the difference between staying here and dying? I'm willing to take a chance."

Gradually, more people chose to leave.

But some people hesitated again.

"Even if I go back, what will happen?"

"We've been missing for so long that our reputation has long since been lost."

Yu Shi and his men stood outside for a while, listening to the voices inside. He looked up at the position of the moon and said, "Is it around 12:00 p.m.?"

He walked in directly: "Ladies, if you are willing to leave with us, please come out. If you are not willing, please stay here. Time is running out, and it will be difficult to get out safely if you leave later."

The main force hasn't arrived yet, so he only brought some capable fighters this time. But if they run into that group of unruly people, it would be impossible for them to remain unscathed while protecting so many weak women.

Now they are no longer entangled.

They all came out, but it was still pitch black in the cave and outside as well.

They are groping their way forward, trying their best to gain hope for themselves.

Yu Shi didn't expect that there were two more people who chose to stay inside.

"My family has strict rules. When I go back, they will definitely think that I am not innocent and will just drown me in the pond. If I leave it here, at least I can still survive."

Yu Shi did not force it. He was ordered to save people, not to force people to die.

If he takes two fewer people out, His Majesty will not hold him responsible.

It was a difficult journey in the dark. The girls had not eaten enough and were too hungry to walk. Some of them fell down from time to time.

But no one said a word, and no one complained of being tired.

They are all working hard towards their own tomorrow.

Seeing the people from a distance, the county magistrate came forward and said, "Yu Shi, now that the people have been rescued, go and have a rest. I will take care of the rest."

After finding that there was no one there, Erzhuang suddenly remembered the wife he had bought. She and they did not eat from the same table, and she was not drugged, so she might hear anything.

As a result, the person was gone.

"That damn bitch has run away again. When she comes back this time, I'll just break her legs and tie her to the bed to have a baby."

Finally someone smarter figured it out.

"Go lock those women up in the cave!"

"Are they the government coming to rescue people?"

Someone snorted, "Come on, have you forgotten? My brother and his brother-in-law are both the squad leaders."

"It's impossible."

Even after he was captured, the man was still shouting, "Captains, my brother is the leader of your squad!"

“We’re all family!”

"You guys got the wrong guy!"

"Haven't you been ignoring us?"

The villagers and everyone were shocked when he was suddenly arrested.

Is buying a wife a crime?

They always thought it was normal.

Some people shouted with a righteous voice: "Why are you arresting us?"

"We bought our wives with our own money. We can sleep with them whenever we want, beat them whenever we want, or kill them whenever we want."

"Once they were bought into our home, they are ours. Why are you arresting us?"

A young and tender-looking constable kicked him angrily, knocking him to the ground. "You bastard, I'll beat you up if I want to. Why don't you bark one more time?"

The man who was punching and kicking the woman immediately fell silent.

The young detective was also very fair in giving a kick to another person who said that his relative was the squad leader.

He slapped his face hard, and his rough, dark face turned red.

"Where's the squad leader?"

"He's covering up the trafficking of decent women. You can ask him in jail whether he's still the leader."

In the end, when the crimes were finally settled, except for the children, few of the others in Yushan had killed anyone, and almost all of them were sentenced to death.

But Yu Shi said that the emperor wanted to transport these people to the capital for execution.

The county magistrate guessed that this group of people must have offended some noble person of great status.

The rescued women were also sent home.

But will you be happy if you escape from the devil's den?
