Chapter 557: Desperately Seeking Death
Yuan Baobao still remembers the moment she entered the secret room next to the Niangniang Cave. Even though she was mentally prepared, she was still deeply shocked.
In the secret room, there were five or six half-meter-high altars.
They were filled with little girls.
The girls had lifeless eyes. If she hadn't heard their faint breathing, Yuan Baobao would have thought they were dead.
And around the altars, there were densely packed bones.
It can be seen that those bones were not big, and they should be children under three years old.
Of course, there were bigger bones in the corners.
"You..."
Looking at those poor girls, Yuan Baobao didn't know how to comfort them.
Only three of them could be saved.
As for the rest...
Yuan Baobao sighed, forget it, the only thing they can do is let their parents take them home and raise them.
But the living conditions of the people in this village are average, and I don't know if those parents can treat their daughters well?
"Those three can still be saved, their parents are willing to take them back and raise them well."
"As for the rest, their families don't want to take them back! Wu Banxia is injured, and his son is lying in bed. It's not certain whether he can get out of bed, and they are not in the mood to care about these things!"
"Little baby, are those poor girls really hopeless?"
Yang Yuhuan still felt sorry for them. To be honest, the most pitiful ones in this matter are those Ping Niangniang.
There are several people in the cave who are already eleven or twelve years old. According to what the witch said before, they can get out after raising them for another year or two.
But now...
these girls have no ability to protect themselves. They can only stay in the altar and need their families to take care of them.
Without the potion developed by the witch, how long can they live?
"I'd better go and see them!" Yuan Baobao also had a worried look on her face. She couldn't take them away!
The villagers put several Ping Niangniang together. When Yuan Baobao went in, several girls looked up.
"You saved us?"
The leading one said first. Yuan Baobao still remembered her. She was the girl he saw that night.
Her eyes are beautiful. When she looks at you with her burning eyes, it is easy to make people lost.
The girl's mouth is still swollen, but it does not hide her beauty at all.
"Yes! That witch is a liar. She is possessed by Wong Tai Sin, which is what we usually call a weasel spirit. I have killed it."
Yuan Baobao looked at them with sympathy: "What are your plans for the future?"
"Us?"
Empress Ping smiled: "Now we are all useless people, and are of no use to them. Even our biological parents don't want to take us back. What plans can we have?"
"Benefactor, to be honest, I didn't want to live from the moment I was put in the altar and couldn't get out. But here we don't even have a chance to die!"
Yuan Baobao...
[Don't they say that you can commit suicide by gritting your teeth? Don't these girls even have the courage to grit their teeth? ]
Yang Yuhuan looked gloomy. She couldn't imagine how these girls survived.
Most people would want to die if they were in that situation, right?
"In fact, we also thought about gritting our teeth and committing suicide, but we don't have much strength after all. Benefactor, do you know? I was weak when I talked to you!"
"Can you let us die happily?"
The girl said at last. When she said this, her eyes were full of pleading.
"If possible, I don't want to continue to be a human being in my next life, especially a woman!"
"I have seen too many tragedies of women, and suddenly I feel that being a human is worse than being an animal?"
Yuan Baobao... How could she refute this?
Yang Yuhuan... felt a little sad for some reason. I don't know how much grief a person has to go through before he will have the idea of not being a human being in his next life.
"Benefactor, that's what we mean too!"
"Benefactor, please, let us die in peace!"
"Benefactor, in the next life we will work like slaves to repay you! Please!"
Yuan Baobao and Yang Yuhuan couldn't help but have tears in their eyes, and even the rich brother turned his head away.
These girls are so miserable, and now they all just want to die!
Yuan Baobao couldn't imagine how desperate these girls must be to beg for death.
Yang Yuhuan opened her mouth: "You guys...how about that, I pay someone to take care of you?"
[Alas, my beautiful sister is still too soft-hearted? ]
[I don't know where she will get the money to pay someone to take care of these girls? Is it in this village? 】
【But she knew that after Yinzi stayed, how would these girls be taken care of? 】
【Not to mention the ordinary people in the village, even their parents would abandon them! 】
Yang Yuhuan's eyes darkened, she knew that Yuan Baobao was telling the truth.
It's just...
they had something important to do this time, and it was absolutely impossible for them to take these girls with them.
"Little baby..." Yang Yuhuan was embarrassed, she didn't know how to help them.
"Madam, I know you have good intentions, we have really lived enough! Being able to die peacefully is a great blessing for us!"
The leading woman said with red eyes and tears.
Yuan Baobao and Yang Yuhuan felt bad.
"Madam, I am willing to take care of them!"
Suddenly a woman ran in, plopped down on the ground and said, "These are my daughters, I am willing to take care of them! Just leave me some silver!"
Yuan Baobao... I don't even need to count, I can tell what you are thinking.
"Madam, I am willing too..."
Another woman ran in, knelt on the ground, and pointed at one of the Ping ladies: "This is my daughter, I can take care of them together, I wonder how much money you can give?"
Yang Yuhuan... this person is really realistic, you take care of your own daughter and still ask me for money, where do you get the face?
But she still turned her head to look at those girls, those girls had fierce eyes, and their light blue eyes were filled with raging anger: "I don't want to!"
"Benefactor, please, let us die!"
"After you leave, they won't treat me well! Rather than living such a life worse than death, I would rather..."
With a snap, before everyone even understood what was going on, an altar fell to the ground and broke into two pieces in the blink of an eye.
That was the oldest girl. After the altar broke, her body was scattered all over the floor. Her internal organs fell to the ground without any limbs.
Yang Yuhuan stood there in shock, looking at the broken altar. These girls...
"
Little baby, do you think they will be in pain?"
Yang Yuhuan couldn't come back to her senses until she returned to the house. Her hands and feet were shaking. Now she was once again glad how happy she was.
Her parents never looked down on her because she was a daughter.
Even when her mother had only her as a daughter, her father never blamed her, let alone thought of giving her away.
But those girls I saw today...
