Chapter 424 The House Was Stolen

Wei Xiao felt so regretful at this moment that she wanted to slap herself a few times.

I regretted that I shouldn't have been curious about what Shen Que and Meng Zhiyi were doing in the woods, and I regretted that I shouldn't have taken the risk to follow them.

But it was too late to regret. The men in front of her spoke a language she couldn't understand and held guns in their hands, forcing her to follow them.

Not long after, Wei Xiao was taken by several people to the location of a wooden house hidden in the deep mountains and forests.

She was forced into one of the wooden houses, and immediately a foul smell hit her head, a mixture of blood, decay and excrement.

Wei Xiao couldn't help it, so she held on to the wall and started to vomit.

But the room was pitch dark and she couldn't see what was going on inside.

Until footsteps were heard outside, and then a few people came in and lit the fuel lamp in the house.

After the fire lit up, Wei Xiao took a while to adjust to the surroundings she was in.

There were more than a dozen people locked up in a small room, both men and women, their clothes were dirty, and some were even lying on the ground covered in wounds, and it was impossible to tell whether they were alive or dead.

Looking at the situation in front of him, even if Wei Xiao was slow to react, he could still understand what these people were doing.

Her face turned pale instantly and she wanted to rush out in fear.

But the man blocking the door grabbed her hair roughly and threw her into the house.

"Let me out! Let me out! I am Chinese, I am a public figure, if something goes wrong, don't even think about escaping!"

Wei Xiao was so frightened that she kept uttering threatening words.

But the person outside the door ignored her shouting and instead spoke to a man who looked like the leader, chattering in words that Wei Xiao couldn't understand.

No one noticed that among the people trapped here, there was a person who looked at Wei Xiao when he heard her say that she was a star.

After a moment, the leader looked at Wei Xiao with a meaningful expression, pointed at her and said something to his men.

When Wei Xiao met his gaze, she felt a chill run down her spine. Then his men came in, grabbed her and dragged her out.

"Don't touch me! I won't go, I won't go!" Wei Xiao struggled desperately.

The next second, the man cursed impatiently and slapped her a few times.

Wei Xiao was beaten so hard that her head felt dizzy and she immediately calmed down.

Then she was dragged to another cabin.

As soon as the man let go, Wei Xiao hid in the corner with her head in her hands like a frightened mouse.

The head of the group walked in when the door of the wooden house was shut. He looked at Wei Xiao who was hiding in the corner, sneered, and asked, "You just said you were a star?"

Hearing that the other party was speaking words that she could understand, Wei Xiao quickly raised her head and said, "Yes, I am a star. If you let me go, I will give you whatever money you want."

But the man's goal is obviously not money.

He stared at Wei Xiao for a moment and continued to ask: "If you are a star, why are you here?"

Wei Xiao had lost the ability to think at this moment, and answered without thinking: "Because we were recording a program nearby, I followed two other people and got lost in the woods."

Hearing this, the man's eyes narrowed and his tone darkened: "Recording a show? Recording in the middle of the night?"

Wei Xiao shook her head: "No... no... I don't know why they went to the woods in the middle of the night, and I was curious, so I followed them."

Man: "You mean, they came around here?"

Wei Xiao nodded repeatedly: "Yes... I separated from them nearby."

Hearing this, the expression on the man's face suddenly became extremely ugly.

He didn't say anything else, but was playing with a lighter in his hand, which made the atmosphere particularly weird.

Wei Xiao lowered her head, her whole body trembling, her heart in a mess.

After a while, the man suddenly asked, "Where are you recording the show? How many people are there?"

Wei Xiao answered without thinking, "It's just outside the park, I think it's on the outskirts. There are about 17 or 18 guests and program staff. The others are not in the camp."

"Is that so..." The man seemed to be thinking about something. After a few seconds, he asked again, "Are they all celebrities?"

Wei Xiao: “Yes.”

After getting the answer, the smile on the man's face turned sinister.

He stood up and walked towards Wei Xiao, then squatted down and pinched her chin to force her to look up at him.

Wei Xiao was so frightened that her face turned pale and tears welled up in her eyes.

The man chuckled and said quietly, "Since you have discovered this place, there is nothing we can do."

Wei Xiao didn't understand: "What do you mean?"

Man: "Nothing, didn't you say you'd give me whatever money I asked for? Then I'll ask you to stay here for a few days. Once we're out of the forest, your family will use the money to redeem you."

After saying that, the man said something to the outside, and then the men who had beaten Wei Xiao came in, dragged her back to the wooden house.

At that time, on the other side.

When Shen Que and Meng Zhiyi returned to the camp, it was already dawn. The two of them went into the tent to catch up quickly.

After dawn, the guests and staff got up and started today's recording.

Meng Zhiyi was not fully slept, and came out of the tent yawning. He saw that Shen Que and Meng Tinglan had already started a fire and were boiling water in iron cans on the fire.

Seeing that she woke up, Shen Que stood up and walked over.

He took out an apple from his bag and took Meng Zhiyi to the river to wash.

As soon as the two men left, something unexpected happened in the camp.

I saw a dozen people wearing camouflage uniforms and masks rushing out of the woods.

With guns in their hands and vicious and ferocious tone, they roughly knocked over the operating cameras and subdued the people in the camp one after another.

This scene was seen by the audience in the live broadcast room. Before they could react to what was happening, the room went dark.

In the camp, the guests and staff squatted on the ground with their hands on their heads.

Meng Tinglan kept glancing towards the river, praying in his heart that Meng Zhiyi and Shen Que would not come back at this time.

But God seemed not to hear his prayers.

After washing up, Meng Zhiyi returned to the camp with Shen Que while eating an apple.

When they saw a group of armed outlaws breaking into the camp, the two of them looked at each other quickly and immediately guessed something.

When the other pointed a gun at them, the two raised their hands in tacit understanding.

Then, everyone was forced into the woods by this group of lawless criminals at gunpoint.

Meng Zhiyi and Shen Que glanced at the direction they were heading and guessed that these people were going to take them to the wooden house.

However, Meng Zhiyi quickly glanced at everyone, then approached Shen Que and whispered, "Wei Xiao is not here."

Shen Que looked around calmly, feeling somewhat puzzled.

Could it be that Wei Xiao went out to do something and wasn't discovered?

But this conjecture had an answer when they were brought to the wooden house.

Because I saw Wei Xiao here.

Meng Zhiyi and Shen Que looked at each other, both of them with question marks in their eyes.

Why is she here?
