Chapter 244 A Glimmer of Hope



"I'll count to three. If you don't take it off by then, I'll destroy your whip and strip you naked. Those two guys over there will probably go crazy..."

When he said the last number, Xiao Yanzi finally gave in and took off her coat.

"Little Chili, you can't hide either, you have to take it off too..."

Both of them took off their outer garments, and the man laughed, "Burn these clothes..."

"If you won't burn clothes, then burn whips. You need to understand which is more important!"

The two had no choice but to burn their clothes. The bandit leader was very happy to see the clothes burned to ashes.

"Since you're so obedient, I won't force you anymore!" The bandit leader went out and locked the door.

He left without saying a word, and then four or five old women came in. They went into Xiao Yanzi and Xia Ziwei's room, saying, "Miss, we're so sorry..."

When Xiao Yanzi and Xia Ziwei saw that it was a few old women who came, they thought they could take action. However, to their surprise, they were unable to resist at all. Two old women grabbed Xiao Yanzi and Xia Ziwei respectively, and the remaining old women took off their clothes.

The old women threw all their clothes into the fire and burned them, then looked at Yongqi and Fu'erkang across from them.

"Do you two young masters need this old woman's help? If you're not willing to take your clothes off, several men will appear over there soon. Given their current state, what do you think will happen to them?"

"You're a woman too, why are you treating them like this? Why are you aiding and abetting evil?"

"When the imperial court ruined our family, it was the chieftain who saved us and gave us a good life. If we don't listen to the chieftain, who do we listen to?"

"Yes, when my daughter was her age, she was also captured and defiled. The chieftain's son didn't despise her and took good care of her in every way. He married her. As an old woman, I naturally have to obey the chieftain's orders."

"The imperial court has ruined our families and caused our deaths. Why should we show you mercy? Blame it on the fact that you are working for the imperial court!"

“You have time to talk to your old woman. Your clothes are already off. If you hesitate any longer, the people outside will really come in.”

"After you take off your clothes, you must throw them in and burn them. We will check. If you are deliberately lying to us, you will not die, but you will suffer a fate worse than death!"

After the old women left, the bandit leader waited outside. "How did it go?"

"The two women had already been stripped naked, and the two men, in order to protect their wives, naturally took their clothes off as well."

"very good."

"It's very windy tonight, remember to open the windows and let them cool off!"

"yes."

"Come on, I'm starving after all this commotion this morning, let's go eat."

They went to lunch, while Yongyan, Kangwei, and the other three were already in despair.

"Ziwei, I'm sorry..."

“If I hadn’t insisted on taking back the whip, you wouldn’t be in this situation.”

Xia Ziwei comforted her, "Don't say that. Even if you want to give up that whip, judging from their attitude, they probably won't let us off the hook."

"Judging from what those old women said, it seems that the imperial court was unjust to them first, which is why we are in such a bad situation..."

Little Swallow said, "If they really knew who we were, they would never have treated us like this!"

“I have reason to suspect that what appears to be trouble from the bandit leader is actually trouble from his master behind the scenes.”

Xia Ziwei asked, "Then who could it be?"

Little Swallow shook her head. "I don't know either. Maybe they're from the imperial court, maybe they're from the martial arts world..."

Gradually, both Xiao Yanzi and Xia Ziwei fell into a coma due to the effects of the drug.

Fu Erkang and Yongqi didn't dare to look at them, so they turned their backs to them. Fu Erkang sighed, "I never thought that one day we would fall into such a miserable situation!"

"Erkang, in your opinion, whose work is this today?"

"I can't guess either. I don't know who I've offended this time to end up like this..."

"Erkang, will you blame us?"

Fu Erkang understood what Yongqi was talking about. He shook his head and said, "What's there to blame? It's obvious that someone is plotting behind the scenes. If I'm going to blame anyone, it's the mastermind, not you victims."

"That whip is of great significance to Xiao Yanzi, so it's understandable that she's reluctant to throw it away. Besides, I think the person behind the scenes must also know how much Xiao Yanzi values ​​the whip, which is why they used it to deal with us."

Yongqi looked up at the window and asked, "Do you think we can get out through that window?"

Fu Erkang said helplessly, "Even if we're going out, we should at least wear clothes, otherwise we're really going to go out naked!"

"Besides, that window is so small, how are we going to squeeze out? Moreover, we don't know if there's flat ground or a river outside the window. In this weather, if we go into the river naked, we might really freeze to death..."

Just when the two were at their wits' end, Tianyi secretly came over, "Master!"

When Tianyi discovered that Yongqi and Fu'erkang were both naked, he was somewhat bewildered. "Master, what's going on?"

"What's the situation outside? How did you get in?"

“They’re all eating right now, so it’s easier for them to come in.”

Yongqi shouted, "Hurry up and find a way to get us four sets of men's clothing..."

"Erkang and I each have one set, Xiaoyanzi and Ziwei each have one set..."

Upon hearing this, Tianyi instinctively wanted to check on Xiaoyanzi and Xia Ziwei, but when he saw the look in Yongqi and Fuerkang's eyes, he was so frightened that he immediately stopped the car, "I'm going right now..."

"(That was close, I almost lost my eyes!)"

He secretly brought four sets of men's clothing over, and by the time he quietly reached the small window, it was already past 1 PM.

"Master, the clothes have arrived."

Tianyi threw the clothes in, then two swords in. The two hurriedly put on their clothes, and then used the swords to cut the lock.

However, they didn't dare to look directly at them, so they called out softly, "Little Swallow, Ziwei, wake up..."

After the two called out for almost the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Xiao Yanzi finally reacted.

“Yongqi…”

Yongqi tossed two sets of men's clothing over, "Quickly wake Ziwei up, the two of you help her put them on..."

Yongqi only dared to stare at Xiaoyanzi, not daring to look at Xia Ziwei at all.

Yongqi threw the clothes over, but they were stopped by the railing. Luckily, Xiaoyanzi still had the strength to pull the clothes back in.

"Ziwei, wake up..." Xiaoyanzi woke up Xia Ziwei. After the two of them got dressed, Yongqi and Fuerkang dared to come over and hug their wives tightly.

"Little Swallow and Ziwei, how are the other two?"

Little Swallow leaned against Yongqi and said, "It seems like I've regained some strength..."

Who delivered these clothes?

Yongqi replied, "It was Tianyi who came looking for us."

"Ziwei and I haven't fully recovered yet, so we definitely can't fight our way out. What should we do?"

"Master..." Tianyi was about to say that as long as they gave the order, someone would rush in and rescue them, but then chaos broke out outside.

"Something's wrong! Someone has broken into the mountain stronghold!"

Tianyi found it strange. "Master, let me take a look!"

Tianyi, who had gone out to take a look, immediately returned. "Master, it's the Eighth Prince who has brought people over!"

The four were completely dumbfounded. Did the Eighth Prince Yongxuan come to their rescue?
