The sun shines in the courtyard, and the birds chirp, active among the trees and flowers, and then fly towards the eaves.
The handymen sitting under the eaves were basking in the sun and chatting about Lianfeng Academy.
A handyman described it with excitement: "There are so many people. That bronze chime is said to be at least a thousand years old. They put it there, and the people around it didn't even dare to breathe out. This is called momentum!"
"
"I also went to see it. When Governor Zhao came over, he was so majestic. Our Hengxiang is so respectable right now!"
"When it opens tomorrow, it might be even more lively!"
"Yeah, who would have thought that Lianfeng Academy could run this? Dongping Academy doesn't even have this kind of reputation!"
…
At the corner behind the wall, a tall and thin figure stood there and listened with bated breath.
After listening for a long time, these handymen talked about Lianfeng Academy and did not mention Dongping Academy a word.
"Sister Bai Ling?" came a delicate female voice from behind.
Bai Ling turned around and saw the pretty maid, and said, "Yun Xing."
The handymen outside vaguely heard the movement here and stopped.
Bai Ling stopped hiding and walked out.
Seeing that it was them, the servants stood up one after another.
Bai Ling ignored them and walked towards the miscellaneous room in the back row house.
There are many miscellaneous rooms in the backyard. They are called miscellaneous rooms. There are not many storage rooms. Most of them are used to lock people in.
Those who beat others will be jailed. Those who harm others will be jailed. Those who disobey discipline will also be jailed.
There are five newly captured fruits in the past few days, three of which are together, but they have to be separated.
In order to ensure freshness, I would not do anything if I could. I would only give half a bowl of rice and half a bowl of water a day, and from time to time someone would come in and threaten and put pressure on me with words.
The pretty maid Yun Xing followed Bai Ling, and was very satisfied with the fruits in the several miscellaneous rooms in the south: "I arranged for those three little bells to be captured under the girl's instructions. They are very fierce. If they can be tamed,
Well, from now on this fierce energy will definitely attract the liking of many men."
After saying that, seeing that the person in front didn't respond, Yun Xing said, "Sister Bai Ling? What are you thinking about?"
Bai Ling shook his head: "Nothing."
She didn't come here today to see these girls. There had been a lot of gossip about the handymen in the backyard. She wanted to come over and see if she could hear anything related to Dongping Academy.
A living student, a student from Dongping University, just jumped off the building and died. Why didn't there be any movement?
Even if Dongping Academy wants to hide this matter, the family of the dead student must be rich or noble. How can they endure it?
Originally, this matter had nothing to do with her, but she had a nightmare last night. She dreamed that the student who jumped got up and kept calling her beside her bed, asking her to help him.
This dream was so terrifying that it gave her a nightmare this morning. Her limbs were stiff and she couldn't wake up for a long time. Her back is still chilly to this day.
They passed by the door and heard the sound. People inside the door heard the noise and crawled inside one after another.
Lin Shuanglan huddled in the corner. She still can't believe that they were really arrested. She always felt that when she opened her eyes and woke up from her dream, they were still free and basking in the sun.
It has only been a few days since they were captured, but they have already endured tremendous mental torture. The man who went out just half an hour ago said that if they do not obey and pick up the guests, they will be beaten up and then sold to the countryside.
Giving birth to a bunch of poor old men in turns.
Lin Shuanglan came from Qingxiang Village. In her early years, she had heard that someone's daughter was abducted by outsiders, such as "guoer" and "little bell". She already knew what these traffickers' slang meant.
Gu Xi
They never thought that one day, this would happen to them.
Lin Shuanglan looked at the wall on the right.
Separated by a wall is Tu Xiaoxi. She has always been the calmest among the three of them, but it is useless to be calm now. How can they escape...
Tu Xiaoxi was also leaning against the corner at this time, facing the same wall as Lin Shuanglan.
All the clothes on their bodies were taken away, leaving only their bellybands and trousers. The wooden hairpins in their hair were also taken away. There was no sharp object in the whole room.
Those people were not afraid that they would be frozen. More likely, they just wanted them to be frozen so that they could more easily succumb to the pain.
The two women talking outside gradually walked away. According to the pattern of the past two days, after a cup of tea or so, another man would come in and threaten them.
Lin Shuanglan was full of despair at the moment, but Tu Xiaoxi knew that there was still another way before her, which was to "submit weakness".
The three of them are different from the other "Guo'er". The other "Guo'er" may be helpless in Hengxiang and cannot fight against the group of people who came to arrest them, but behind the three of them, there is Ning'anlou standing up for them.
She could pretend to be subdued, and then find an opportunity to contact Ning'an House after she left, and rescue Lin Shuanglan and Feng An'an.
But she knew very well what she would face before finding this opportunity.
As long as one of the three of them sacrifices, it will be fine.
But this sacrifice is too huge.
Tu Xiaoxi closed her eyes. She didn't want to become a victim until the last moment.
Yun Xing came here to see if the miscellaneous room was empty. She found two more girls and planned to close the net tonight.
Also, the fruit that was the first to be brought back in this batch had an average appearance and nothing that stood out. Yun Xing didn’t want to keep wasting it, so she was thinking about telling the girl that she might as well just ask someone to do it and sell it to the countryside.
, you can also kill the chicken to scare the monkey and show it to other fruits.
There was a sound of hurried footsteps, and Yun Xing and Bai Ling turned around. It was a thug walking very close to them, named Er Tou San.
"Where's the girl?" Er Tousan gasped, "I didn't see her upstairs."
"The girl went to shopkeeper Jin to look at the cloth. She said it was a new one and she was going to make some summer clothes." Yun Xing said.
"Sister Bai Ling, see if you can find the girl right away!" Er Tou San said, "I accidentally bumped into some of Mrs. Qu's men. They seem to be checking the girl!"
"Checking our girl?" Bai Ling asked blankly, "What are you checking on the girl for?"
He glanced at the miscellaneous rooms with two eyes and lowered his voice: "Those things about Guo'er."
"What's there to investigate?" Yun Xing shouted, "It's just a few fruits. People in Hengxiang are full of teeth. Let's investigate the big ones!"
"Really Mrs. Qu's person?" Bai Ling didn't believe it.
"Yes, and it must be Mrs. Qu's intention!"
Yun Xing said disgustedly: "That old fat woman has always liked our girl, what is she doing now?"
"No matter what you do, you should tell the girl first," Bai Ling said, looking at Er Tou San, "You go find a way to interfere with those people, and I will go find the girl and come back!"
"Um!"
Bai Ling left quickly.
Yun Xing turned her head and looked at the few empty rooms she had just seen, and muttered unhappily: "If there really is something, do we have to close the net at night?"
