Gu Xin grasped the key point: these were the last two to return, and the others hadn't succeeded yet. So, now she could go up and take care of them.
She stood up, shook her head, stretched her limbs, and said to Gu Ren and Miss Ying, "You two untie their ropes. Remember, don't be afraid, don't panic. Ren, after I leave the cellar, seal the lid from the inside. Don't open it unless I tell you to, understand?"
Gu Ren nodded solemnly: "I understand, Third Sister! Third Sister, please be careful."
Gu Ren nodded: "Okay. They'll definitely let the kidnapped child in in a bit. I'll go to the stairs, throw the child to you, and you catch him. Then, just do as I say."
Gu Ren and Miss Ying nodded in unison: "Yes!"
Gu Xin picked up some rope, hung it around her neck, climbed to the top of the stairs, and took a deep breath.
The cellar smelled awful and was very damp.
Soon, the cellar lid was opened, and a burly man carrying a sack was about to come down. He rudely tried to throw the sack down, but Gu Xin stopped him.
Gu Xin took the sack and looked down. Gu Ren and Miss Ying were standing behind her waiting. After handing the sack to the two little ones, Gu Xin threw a punch at the big man who had already reacted.
Caught off guard, the burly man was hit in the eye and fell backward.
Gu Xin quickly left the cellar, closed the lid, and heard Gu Ren's voice inside: "Third Sister, don't worry, I've locked it. Beat them, beat them to death, but don't kill them!"
Gu Xin smiled. This little guy.
She stomped hard on the burly man who was trying to get up, and then stomped on his groin.
Finally, they quickly tied the person's hands and feet together.
Everyone inside heard the big man's screams. Those who were discussing things ran out to see what was happening, and even the lookout outside ran in, bringing a dog with him.
"Hey, go, bite her!" the lookout called to the dog.
Gu Xin pulled a dagger from her foot and, seeing the dog pounce, precisely found its vital point, killing it instantly with a single blow, blood splattering everywhere.
Gu Xin raised her hand to wipe her face, frowning as she said, "My mother made this dress for me, and now it's stained with dog blood and can't be washed clean. Are you trying to get yourself killed?"
This group of flower sellers had been in the business for so many years, but this was the first time they had encountered such a tough opponent, and they were all a little flustered.
The burly man, their leader, squinted at Gu Xin and said coldly, "Hmph, brat, don't be ungrateful!"
Gu Xin smiled and said, "Hmph, I'll say the same thing back to you, don't be ungrateful!"
After saying that, she ran towards them without waiting for them to make a move.
The burly man stepped back and said, "Go! You've scared a little girl like this? It's embarrassing if word gets out!"
The group also felt quite embarrassed. Although Gu Xin looked fierce, she was only one person, while there were many of them. So, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and the several big men tried to trap Gu Xin.
Gu Xin didn't take them seriously at all. Back then, she was able to fight her way out of the Yunhai tribe's soldiers, who were all tall and strong and carried various weapons. Why would she be afraid of these small fry?
She doesn't even need to use the four powerful weapons developed by Grandma Xiao. She hasn't stretched her muscles in a long time, so she'll exercise properly tonight.
