Qi Zi didn't resist. She didn't know what fate was waiting for her next. Anyway, it was the same wherever she went, so just go with it.
After walking for about an hour, the boss ordered a thin man to cover Qi Zi and Su Yueling's eyes with black cloth. After climbing the slope for a while, they untied it. In front of them was a courtyard house with two men with knives at the door.
, seeing them coming back, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet them: "Brother, I'm back."
"Well, lock these two girls up and keep them under my watch this time. This is for Mr. Xiao." The boss pointed at Su Yueling and said.
"Don't worry, boss, our brothers won't let her escape this time." A villain said confidently.
The scar-faced man asked the two villains guarding the door again: "Why hasn't the boat arrived yet? It's almost dawn. Go and have a look."
"Yes." He watched the figure leave and disappear into the dark night, only to hear bursts of running sounds from behind.
Qi Zi and Su Yueling entered the courtyard and were locked in a room. There were about a dozen girls in the room. It seemed that someone was coming, and they all huddled in the corner timidly.
The evil man who pushed Qi Zi into the room just turned around, looked back at Qi Zi's bundle, and said with a wicked smile: "Bring it here."
Qi Zi glared at him and ignored him. In the bag were two sets of clothes that Zi Lan had prepared for her, both of which were old clothes from her time in the palace, and the string of pearls given by Xuan Yi.
The man walked up to her and snatched away the baggage. It was something outside the body anyway, so he could just take it away. But Qi Zi felt inexplicably reluctant to let it go, but it was impossible to get it back now.
With a "clang" sound, the door was closed, and some fine dust fell from above, flying gently. Su Yueling fanned the dust, patted the dazed Qi Zi and said, "I'm sorry, Miss Yang, for involving you.
"
Qi Zi shook her head silently. The next moment she knew that these women had been snatched or deceived by the gang of bad guys, and they were going to be sold to wealthy families for small jobs or sold to brothels for prostitution. The pretty ones were given away.
Rich and powerful people keep their favor, and Su Yueling is the last one.
Qi Zi lamented the unfairness of her fate. She did not expect that she was not the only one who suffered. If the world was so dirty, then what was the point of living for her? What reason could she find to live? She sat down against the wall.
On the ground.
The only sounds in the room were sighs and cries. Su Yueling sat next to Qi Zi and said, "Why don't you speak?"
"I don't know what to say?" She thought of Liu Zhongwen again. He used to support her and she could survive no matter how much she suffered. But now the support is gone and she is lying on the same bed with another woman. That woman
Still her best sister, Qi Zi couldn't help but shed tears of sadness, her heart ached as if she was suffocating.
Seeing Qi Zi crying, Su Yueling was dumbfounded, thinking that she was the one who had caused her trouble, and blamed herself: "I'm sorry, don't cry. I know it was me who was sorry for you and got you involved."
Qi Zi wiped away her tears and said, "It's none of your business. Don't say that. It's just me who remembered things I shouldn't have thought about. It has nothing to do with you."
"Then don't be sad. Everything will pass." Su Yueling's sudden comfort surprised Qi Zi, who turned her head and looked at her.
Su Yueling introduced her family background and continued: "My mother died when I was two years old, so I followed my father around the world and made a living by performing arts. Three years ago, my father also died, and I had to travel around alone. A
A few months ago, I saw these people bullying a child. I couldn't stand it, so I helped him. I didn't realize that my ability was limited, but I was arrested by them..."
After listening to her narration, the girls around also gathered around and said:
"Because I wanted to treat my mother's illness, I came out to find a job as a girl, and I was tricked into doing it by them." A girl said while wiping her tears.
"Me too, I wanted to lighten the burden on my family. They said they could let me work as a maid in a wealthy family, but I didn't expect them to catch me here." Another one also cried.
…
There are countless reasons for being caught, the most important one is that these bandits are crazy and want to sell them for money.
"Have you never thought about running away?" Qi Zi asked softly to defend them.
"How could so many of them escape? Didn't you think Miss Su was captured just now?" a girl said.
Qi Zi sighed and said: "But you can't just follow the mercy of those bad guys. Let's all think of a way together and escape. Otherwise, if those bad guys succeed in their conspiracy, won't you regret it for the rest of your life?"
"Miss Yang is right, we must escape, otherwise how can we be worthy of ourselves and our parents." Su Yueling echoed.
Everyone started talking, and someone outside the house heard the noise, knocked on the door and shouted loudly: "Why are you noisy? Just be quiet. I'll sell you guys tomorrow. I don't care what you say."
The voices in the room became quieter, discussing how to escape.
Looking out of the window, the sky was white with fish belly. I didn't know that there was also the sound of drinking and punching in that room. A wine jar fell to the ground, making a "bang" sound, and then a small voice came:
"You drank too much, be careful."
Hearing the door open, Qi Zi stood up and looked through the window. He saw a villain hurriedly ran in and walked towards the main room. After a while, the scar-faced man in the main room came out and took away eight or nine villains.
, there were only three people looking after them in the yard, one of them was as thin as a stick, one was bald, and the other had a beard. When Qi Zi squinted at a medium-sized wooden stick in the corner, his heart was excited, and he looked at them
If you go out, you won't be able to come back for a while. There's a chance.
She turned to Su Yueling and whispered: "There is a way."
"What can you do? Everyone gathered around and listened carefully..."
The evil man in the yard was wandering back and forth with a big knife in his hand, looking anxiously at the door from time to time. Suddenly, he heard a shout from Miss Guan's room: "Help, help, someone has hit the wall."
"What?" The three villains were stunned. It was normal for them to be confused when they caught the girl here, so they did not suspect it.
The bald man said: "Go and have a look."
"Be careful." Bearded Beard still reminded him.
The thin evil man sneered: "They are all women, what are they afraid of?"
"Come on, come on, come on..." The room was in a mess, and the thin evil man opened the door and saw a girl lying among the people. He said fiercely: "Go away, let me
See if he's dead."
Everyone got out of the way, and the moment he squatted down, Su Yueling, who was hiding behind the door, raised the wooden stick and smashed it down hard. The thin villain had no time to react and fell to the ground with an "ah" sound.
.
Qi Zi stabilized everyone's mood and said: "Don't panic, everyone, there are two more, drag him to the corner quickly, we all stand to block him."
