Soon, Feng Guizhi and the others walked forward and came upon a small wooden cabin. It was simple and small, about the size of a kitchen. It was hard to see clearly in the dark, but in daylight, one could tell it was very old, likely a dwelling left behind by hunters or something like that from years past.
"I'll go in and take a look." Song Aiguo said, taking the kerosene lamp from Feng Guizhi's hand, and then carefully walked towards the wooden house.
Song Aimin followed behind him, also becoming extremely alert and vigilant of his surroundings.
Slowly, Song Aiguo approached and pushed open the door. There was nothing inside the cabin, let alone anyone. He could see through it at a glance. However, Song Aiguo, holding the kerosene lamp, looked around and found some food crumbs on the floor. Not much, but it showed someone had been there before.
After looking around for a while and finding no other clues, Song Aiguo went out and told Feng Guizhi the clues he had just found: "Someone has been in the room, it's almost certain."
They couldn't think of anyone else who could stay here except the human trafficker.
Since the person has been here before, he might be around now.
Feng Guizhi didn't say it explicitly, but they all looked at each other and understood what she meant.
Song Aiguo and Song Aimin walked one after the other, Feng Guizhi held Baoya in the middle, Yang Yulan was beside them, and Song Jianye was guarding the other side.
Baoya was led by Feng Guizhi and Yang Yulan. Although it was dark, she felt at peace. She kept her eyes open, trying to see clearly around her, and walked straight ahead, as if something was guiding her.
After walking forward for a while, Song Jianguo continued to walk straight, but Baoya stopped at this time, turned her little face to the right, frowned and looked seriously.
Feng Guizhi noticed her movements and stopped as well. She looked to the right, then continued walking straight ahead, pulling Baoya along. The few people walked further and further away, and the faint firelight grew dimmer and dimmer.
Seeing them leave, Ni Eryong, who was hiding in the bushes, breathed a sigh of relief, his tense body relaxed, and he slumped down on the spot. Meanwhile, Liu Dazhu and the others couldn't stop crying as they watched Baoya and the others walk away.
But they didn't dare cry out loud, for fear that Ni Eryong would really break their arms. Only low whimpers could be heard.
Ni Eryong heard it and sneered: "People
You've gone too far, and no one can save you, so you'd better be obedient so you can suffer less."
"If you can make me happy, I can sell you to wealthy customers. Isn't that better than doing farm work here for the rest of your life? With delicious food to eat and nice clothes to wear, it won't be long before you forget about this place."
Ni Eryong stopped talking to them and began to think about what to do next. Now that his affairs had been discovered, he definitely couldn't stay here for long and had to leave as soon as possible. But now there were people everywhere looking for him, and he was carrying three children whose hair had barely grown out. He definitely couldn't move fast and would be easily discovered...
Just as Ni Eryong was thinking seriously, he didn't notice that the bushes not far away were slightly moving.
Yang Fucai raised his hand to wipe away his tears, feeling sad and scared. At this moment, he suddenly saw the grass in front of him move. He immediately thought of a ghost, and screamed at the top of his throat. Then he met the man's gaze and found that it was Yuanbao's uncle!
He bit his lips hard to prevent himself from making any sound, then looked at Song Aiguo with tears in his eyes, his heart pounding.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Song Aiguo turned his head and looked at Ni Eryong next to him. He was still thinking about how to escape and didn't realize that he had been discovered.
Song Aiguo didn't get up immediately to subdue him, fearing that he might hurt Yang Fucai and the others in a panic. He hid quietly, then pointed to the direction behind him and told them to run in that direction.
Yang Fucai stared blankly, blinked his eyes, slowly understood what he meant, and then slowly nodded.
Erdan and Liu Dazhui had their backs to Song Aiguo, so they didn't notice anything unusual. They only thought that they were going to be taken away by human traffickers and would never see their parents again. They cried tears of sadness.
However, it was precisely because of their low sobs that Song Aiguo was able to determine their location and also provided him with cover.
Soon, Song Aiguo noticed a slight movement in the opposite direction and knew that the time had come. Without any hesitation, he stood up and rushed towards the traffickers, while shouting to Yang Fucai and the other two:
“Run!”
Song Aiguo pressed Ni Eryong to the ground. Only then did Ni Eryong react and immediately began to struggle. The two men wrestled together and it was impossible to see in the darkness.
Who has the upper hand.
This sudden change stunned Liu Dazhu and Erdan, who screamed and cried miserably. Yang Fucai was also very scared, but fortunately he had some mental preparation just now. He remembered what Song Aiguo said and stood up while crying and ran in the direction behind him.
While running, he did not forget to call Liu Dazhu and Erdan: "Run, run over here quickly."
However, their hands were tied, which made it a bit difficult to stand up and also affected their running. Then, in a panic, Erdan stood in front of Liu Dazhu. Liu Dazhu was afraid of being caught by the traffickers behind him, so he pushed Erdan without thinking and ran past him.
Erdan was caught off guard and fell to the ground by Liu Dazhu's push. With his hands tied, he couldn't use any cushioning force, so he landed face first, taking a heavy toll.
At this time, Ni Eryong pushed Song Aiguo away fiercely and ran towards Erdan. He gritted his teeth, thinking that as long as he caught him, he would not be arrested today.
Erdan tried hard to get up, but his face was burning with pain. He turned around and saw a dark figure running towards him. He was so frightened by the pain and fear that he couldn't even make a sound.
At this moment, Song Aimin suddenly rushed up from the side and punched Ni Eryong in the face, knocking him down.
"Ah!" Ni Eryong was knocked to the ground. Before he could struggle, Song Aimin rushed over again.
Soon, with the cooperation of Song Aiguo and Song Aimin, Ni Eryong was subdued.
Song Jianye also found Yang Fucai and Liu Dazhu, and finally helped the frightened Erdan to his feet and untied the rope for him. He comforted him, "It's okay, don't be afraid, let's go home now, your mother is still waiting for you at home."
Several people met, Song Aiguo clamped Ni Eryong, Song Aimin took the rope from Song Jianye and tied Ni Eryong's hands back and forth three times.
Just as they were about to leave, Song Jianye suddenly remembered something and asked the younger ones, "Is he alone? Are there any others?"
After hearing his question, Song Aiguo and Song Aimin finally reacted. They pressed Ni Eryong's arm and asked in a deep voice, "Tell me, do you have any other accomplices?"
"Confess and we'll give you leniency; resist and we'll punish you severely. If you don't tell us and we find your accomplice, you'll be sentenced to several more years of forced labor!"
Yang Fucai, II
Dan and the others looked at each other and slowly shook their heads. They didn't see anyone else, only him. Ni Eryong also shook his head in denial: "No... no accomplices, it's just me."
Song Aiguo asked several times and got the same answer every time. Then he forced him to take Yang Fucai, Liu Dazhui and others down the mountain.
Feng Guizhi, along with Baoya and Yang Yulan, did not show up in front of them. After seeing Erdan, Yang Fucai and the others being found and the traffickers being apprehended, she quietly followed behind and did not leave. After all, she brought Baoya with her this time, fearing that it would be difficult to explain if she told others about it.
Halfway through the journey, Song Aiguo and his friends met other members of the team and told them what they had found.
"What? The child was found?"
"This is great! Where did you find this love for the country and the people?!"
"Is this the human trafficker?"
"You damn thing, bah! Let me see what you look like. You're not afraid of being struck by lightning for doing such a shameful thing!"
"I'm so ashamed for your parents. They raised a son like this. You've pissed off your ancestors for eight generations!"
"You kidnapped someone and brought him to our team. Now you'll be stuck in jail for the rest of your life!"
“…”
When the team heard the person had been found, they all breathed a sigh of relief. Then, looking at Ni Eryong, their anger shot up to their heads. Seeing him there, they all wanted to kick him.
Then someone noticed Song Jianye standing behind them and asked in surprise, "Jianye, why are you here too?"
"What, Jianye is here too?"
"I can't help much. Since you are all here, I will leave these children to you. I will go back first." Song Jianye was still leaning on a cane. Everyone saw it and quickly responded:
"Go back and rest, we are here."
"Can you do it on your own? Do you want me to carry you down the mountain?"
Song Jianye didn't accept his kindness and said, "It's okay. My legs are much better now. I can do it myself."
After saying this, he slowly walked away with a cane. Seeing that he was not seriously injured, the people in the team stopped talking. Then two people stayed with Song Aiguo and Song Aimin, and the rest of the people hurriedly ran to inform others.
Feng Guizhi and the others, when Song Aiguo and the others encountered the group, quietly went down the mountain from another road. This road was close to the foot of the mountain and there was no danger. Not long after, they met up with Song Jianye, and they took Baoya home together.
......
"Don't look for that human trafficker anymore.
It has been found, and Erdan and the others have found it too."
"Go inform the captain and the others and tell them that the person has been found."
"Erdan Dad, Erdan Dad, stop looking, we've found your son~!"
"What? Found it? Where is it? Where is my son? Take me there quickly."
"Old Yang, we've found your grandson~!"
“.......”
Everyone rushed around to tell each other, and soon everyone returned to the team. It was already very late, but no one went home to sleep. Everyone gathered in the wheat field, and standing in the middle were Song Aiguo, Ni Eryong, and the three children.
"You are so great for loving our country and our people. Tell us where you found this person."
"Yeah, you guys are really capable of finding people in such a dark place."
"That's right. I thought we wouldn't be able to catch anyone today. After all, it was dark and we couldn't see anything clearly. I didn't expect..."
"It's a blessing that all three children were found. Otherwise, what would Erdan's family do?"
"yes."
Not long after, Song Yuangang, who received the news, also rushed over. Seeing Ni Eryong tied up in the middle and the three intact children, he felt relieved.
He walked over, looked at Ni Eryong, then looked at the two Song brothers and asked, "Aiguo Aimin, is this the person you arrested? How did you find her?"
He felt a surge of comfort in his heart. Every member of the Song family was a good person. Earlier, Song Jianye had broken his leg while saving someone, and now his two brothers had caught the human traffickers. This wasn't just a personal help, it also benefited their entire team.
Their Hongqi Production Brigade is truly blessed to have the Song family.
Following what Feng Guizhi had said, Song Aiguo briefly recounted how he found the person: "Aimin and I were just looking for him in the back hills... My mother asked Yuanbao where he met that person, and thought we might find him if we looked over there... Then we saw a small wooden house over there... Ni Eryong was hiding behind the bushes with a few other kids, so Aimin and I slowly walked over, one in front and one behind..."
After hearing what he said, everyone in the brigade said, "He's really patriotic and loves his people. It seems like it's all thanks to Aunt Feng. Why didn't we think of this?"
"Yeah, I thought the trafficker might hide in the mountains, which would be hard to find. I didn't expect him to be hiding down there."
"But it's a good thing the traffickers have been caught now. It saves us from having to worry in the future."
"yes......."
After saying a few words, Song Yuangang did not delay any longer. He called Song Aiguo and Song Aimin, and then took two village cadres and took Ni Eryong to the police station.
Erdan and Yang Fucai were sent home, while Liu Dazhu was with them and would be taken to the Yuejin Production Brigade when they passed by later.
However, before he could do so, a shrill voice rang out: "Pillar!"
