Chapter 760 The Unlucky Sister Who Was Married in Exchange (5)
The old man and his family had already started discussing how to sell Liu Shichu for a good price. Seeing that she hadn't woken up yet, they locked her in the woodshed and locked the door. However, they didn't tie her up with a rope, probably because they thought that she was a weak woman and there was no way she could escape from them.
When Liu Shichu saw the people leaving, he opened his eyes, stood up, and stretched his muscles. Pretending to faint is a technical job.
She originally planned to teach the old woman and her family a lesson so that they would never do such a conscienceless thing again. After all, her identity was fake, and she should keep a low profile when she arrived in the capital.
But when she heard the family discussing how to sell her in a familiar manner, she realized that this was definitely not the first time they had done this kind of human trafficking, but had been doing it all along. They were true human traffickers, so she couldn't let this family escape the law.
But what to do with them?
Liu Shichu frowned and thought for a while. She didn't want to reveal the fact that she had practiced martial arts, otherwise she would be easily exposed, so she couldn't bring this family to justice openly.
However, since she couldn't be aboveboard, she kept her merits and fame to herself. She pretended that a kind-hearted knight had seen her being abducted during the day, so he came to rescue her when it was dark, and kidnapped the human trafficker and sent him to the authorities...
At night, the old woman and her son came to the woodshed again. Seeing that Liu Shichu was still unconscious, they felt a little surprised.
"Mom, why hasn't she woken up yet? Was the drug too strong? If she becomes stupid, she won't be sold for a good price." The old woman's son became anxious when he thought of this possibility, and grabbed Liu Shichu's shoulders and tried to wake her up.
The old woman said doubtfully, "No way? She just ate a piece of bread. How could such a small amount make her stupid? I think the effect of the medicine has worn off long ago. She is just sleeping now."
"Hey! Wake up!" The old woman's son shook Liu Shichu's body roughly.
Liu Shichu was finally "woken up" and opened his eyes to see a strange man. He was immediately frightened and screamed: "Who are you? What do you want to do?"
She pretended to be panicked and struggled to back away. When she saw the old woman standing beside her, she seemed to understand something. Her face turned pale and she asked the old woman in disbelief: "Auntie?! Why did you knock me out? Where is this place?"
The old woman did not feel guilty at all, and said with a smile: "Miss Liu, I saw you coming to Beijing to live with your relatives alone, and I felt sorry for you, so I thought of finding a good place for you. Don't worry, I will definitely find the best place for you, and you can forget about your poor relatives. When you have a good place to live, you will eat delicious food, drink spicy drinks, wear fine clothes and eat delicious food, and live a life of luxury. Then you will know that I am doing this for your own good..."
"No! It turns out you have bad intentions towards me! I advise you to let me go quickly! My aunt already knows that I will come to the capital. If you dare to do anything to me, you will not be able to escape!" Liu Shichu was trembling with fear, but he still tried to persuade the old woman to let him go.
The old woman smiled so much that even her missing front teeth were exposed. She said, "Little girl, you are so naive. This is the capital. Even if your aunt knew you were coming, so what? There are so many accidents every day. It's normal for a few people to disappear. Even if your aunt wants to find you, she has no clue. What can you do? So I advise you to be obedient, otherwise you will suffer."
"Hehe... don't even think about escaping now. If I find you, be careful of my fist." The old woman's son raised his fist towards Liu Shichu, clearly threatening her.
Liu Shichu suddenly seemed to be frightened by him. He shrank into the corner and dared not speak anymore.
The old woman and her son then closed the door with satisfaction and left.
The panic-stricken and frightened expression on Liu Shichu's face suddenly turned into an expressionless expression.
Afterwards, the old woman brought Liu Shichu a bowl of water and a steamed bun. After all, if a person was starved and became thin, he would not look good and could not be sold at a good price.
Liu Shichu did not drink the water, nor did she eat the steamed buns she brought. There were plenty of delicious food and drinks in her space, so there was no need to take the risk of eating what the old woman brought.
When it was late at night and the old woman and her family were all silent and asleep, Liu Shichu broke the wooden window frame of the woodshed and climbed out of the window.
She disguised herself as a tall, strong man with his face covered, rushed into the old woman's house, beat her son and daughter-in-law roughly, and then tied them up with ropes. Then the old woman and her husband were treated the same way, first beaten and tied up, and then interrogated.
Liu Shichu took out a pen and paper, kicked the old man, and said in a rough male voice: "Tell me, where is the girl you kidnapped today?"
The old man was startled, thinking that the man who broke into his house in the middle of the night and beat him up had seen through his kidnapping. But he still had a little hope, so even after being beaten black and blue, he still pretended to be innocent and said, "Sir, spare me! What kidnapped girl? I didn't kidnap anyone, you misunderstood..."
Liu Shichu kicked him impatiently. There was no need for the human traffickers who had done so much harm to others to respect the elderly: "Don't try to lie to me, I saw it with my own eyes. You still don't tell the truth. You don't want to live anymore, right?" After that, she punched him hard in the abdomen.
The old man felt a sharp pain all over his body, and he screamed in agony. All hope was gone, and he begged for mercy in a panic: "I'll tell you! I'll tell you!"
"Old man!" The old woman, who also had a bruised face and nose, hurriedly called out to him, fearing that he would really admit it.
But the old man couldn't bear it anymore, and didn't care about anything else. He said without hesitation: "The girl is in the woodshed now, and we haven't had time to take action. Hero, please let us go for the sake of the girl being fine! We were just confused for a moment, and it was not intentional. We will never dare to do it again in the future. Please let us go..."
Liu Shichu snorted and ignored his plea for mercy, continuing to ask: "Tell me all the people you abducted before. If you miss one, I will cut off one of your limbs. If you lose all four of your limbs, you will also lose your wife's, your son's, and your daughter-in-law's..."
"No more! This is the first time we do this, really! The old man didn't lie to you..." The old man knew that the severity of the crime of attempted trafficking and habitual trafficking was definitely different. He relied on the fact that he had no evidence and refused to admit it.
Unfortunately, Liu Shichu had heard their family discussing the girl they had sold before during the day, so how could she be deceived by him? So she took out a long sword without saying a word and slashed the old man's arm. He screamed and blood gushed out of his arm.
Liu Shichu actually showed mercy, otherwise his hand would not be injured but chopped off.
