Ji Xiaoxiao did not stop Li Shanshan. Li Shanshan was small and weak. Unless she used a sharp weapon, it would be very difficult for her to kill Qiu Longzi, a big man.
"Alright." When it was almost time, Ji Xiaoxiao spoke up to stop Li Shanshan.
"What are your thoughts?" Ji Xiaoxiao asked Li Shanshan.
Li Shanshan thought for a moment, then blushed slightly on her sallow face. "Revenge, I want revenge."
"So, do you want to take matters into your own hands and trade one life for another, or do you want to rely on the police and legal means to seek compensation for yourself?" Ji Xiaoxiao leaned more towards the latter option.
Li Shanshan was educated; the idea that murder was illegal was deeply ingrained in her mind. If she could kill Qiu Longzi, and couldn't clean up the mess, could she possibly slaughter the entire village, leaving no one alive?
Even in the most remote and desolate mountains and forests, the saying "the net of heaven is vast, and though its meshes are wide, nothing escapes it" applies here as well.
Li Shanshan was beaten and physically injured, but her mind was impaired. Her choice was the same as Ji Xiaoxiao's.
"Okay." Since we're both smart people, it's easy and convenient to communicate.
Ji Xiaoxiao handed her phone to Li Shanshan. Li Shanshan stared at the phone, her eyes shining so brightly they were almost blinding.
"How did you get this?" Li Shanshan asked, holding the phone carefully.
“I bought it,” Ji Xiaoxiao said.
Before even entering the mountains, Qiu Zhuang had demanded that Ji Xiaoxiao hand over her phone. Ji Xiaoxiao had plenty of spare cash and had bought several. Since her father wanted a phone, and she considered it a filial act to give him one, Ji Xiaoxiao handed it over to Qiu Zhuang without batting an eye.
Qiu Zhuang assumed that Ji Xiaoxiao only had one phone. Seeing that Ji Xiaoxiao was obedient, he did not check her bag, which actually contained several different models of phones of various sizes.
"Call the police!" Ji Xiaoxiao couldn't stand Li Shanshan's expression and behavior of holding a broken phone like it was her son, and said with disdain.
Ji Xiaoxiao originally wanted to handle it herself, but after thinking about it again, it seemed better to leave it to the abused women. Not only would they be grateful to her, but it would also cause a sensation if these victims recounted their suffering over the years.
Li Shanshan took a deep breath and dialed the number with trembling hands.
"Hello, this is the XX Police Station. How can I help you?"
Upon hearing this, Li Shanshan burst into tears.
An hour later, Li Shanshan told the police everything she had experienced and all the darkness she knew. Regardless of the police's reaction, Ji Xiaoxiao tied Qiu Longzi to the frame, stuffed a dirty rag into Qiu Longzi's mouth, and went to sleep feeling relieved.
The next day, the sky was clear and the earth was bright.
Ji Xiaoxiao was woken up early in the morning by Liu Dahua. Three strangers were sitting in the small villa.
"Look at my daughter, isn't it a good deal to buy her?" Liu Dahua said proudly.
Because of her cultivation of the "White Lotus Sacred Technique," Ji Xiaoxiao possessed an innate halo of sainthood, with ethereal fairy energy swirling around her, making her appear as lofty and aloof as a celestial maiden. Her serene and unyielding face, bathed in the sunlight, resembled a lotus flower rising from the mud, pure and untainted.
The three people sitting in the living room of the small villa were two men and one woman. The men stared intently at Ji Xiaoxiao, wishing they could stick to her and never leave her side.
Ji Xiaoxiao discreetly observed the three people, who turned out not to be the widower and his family from the original owner's memories. Although somewhat strange, Ji Xiaoxiao was relieved when she recalled the difference between "thirty thousand yuan" and "five hundred yuan".
"Come sit here." Liu Dahua patted the empty seat next to her.
Ji Xiaoxiao walked over and obediently sat down.
"How is it? It's a good product, isn't it!" Liu Dahua said with heartache. "You guys really hit the jackpot to find such a good girl for 30,000 yuan."
The three nodded, clearly agreeing with Liu Dahua.
Liu Dahua burst into laughter, rubbing her hands together. "Then, this money?"
The oldest of the three men took out a wad of cash from an old bag and handed it to Liu Dahua, saying, "Count it."
Liu Dahua's mouth was agape as she laughed and agreed.
"One hundred, two hundred, three hundred... one thousand... five thousand... ten thousand... thirty thousand." After a while, the money was finished being counted, and Liu Dahua hurriedly hid the money in her bosom. "That's right, that's the number."
"And this person?" The younger man's eyes burned with an intensity comparable to molten lava.
"Take it away quickly." Liu Dahua waved her hand.
The younger man reached out to Ji Xiaoxiao, but Ji Xiaoxiao swiftly snatched the money from Liu Dahua's arms and tossed it back into his hand.
"I am a person, not a commodity. I am not someone you can buy just because I want to sell." Ji Xiaoxiao suddenly stood up and tried to run away.
Ji Xiaoxiao's series of actions came suddenly, leaving the four people in the main hall bewildered for a moment before exchanging smiles.
The older man patted the younger man on the shoulder and said, "Go on, that's your wife now."
The young man grinned, revealing a set of yellow teeth. He took off running and caught Ji Xiaoxiao in a few swift movements.
"Come home with me, my wife. I'll treat you well," the younger man coaxed gently.
Ji Xiaoxiao flailed her limbs weakly, crying out, "Help! Help!"
The small mountain village was used to this kind of thing; they glanced up, then went about their own business.
Just as the man was about to kiss Ji Xiao, a timely intervention arrived.
"Stop! I'm a police officer." Sunlight broke through the dark clouds.
