Soon, the closed floor opened again.
Xiao Fuyuan and A Zhen's hearts moved, confirming that this was a signal to open the ground!
The young man who had just met Xiao Fuyuan and A Zhen looked out again and saw the bearded man and Mrs. Cao, but did not shrink back.
"...Why did your boy come out? Where is the head of the house?" asked Granny Cao.
"Take custody, take custody to the mine." The young man muttered in a low voice.
Xiao Fuyuan and A Zhen secretly saw clearly, and the young man's face was numb.
mine?
Xiao Fuyuan frowned?
This place is obviously Nanguan Mountain. She knew the way. The last time Bai Erzhuang took her to An Xiucai's place, she could probably tell that this ruined temple was in the col between Xiashan Village and Shenshu Village.
Why hadn't she heard of any mines nearby?
"Here comes another coolie. You carry her down and hand her over to the boss." The bearded man sent Tian Maimiao to the young man.
"Yes." The young man agreed with a low eyebrow, took the Tian Mai seedlings, and then pulled the person towards the cave, shrank his head, and the person disappeared.
With a "click", the floor closed again.
Mrs. Cao hung the red sandalwood fish on the tent hook again, and moved to the Zen room with the bearded man.
The children were so frightened that they withdrew their eyes and stared at their toes, with their hearts in their throats and not daring to breathe.
"If you don't obey me, I'll put you in there and go mining. You'll never get out again in your lifetime."
Mrs. Cao's sharp eyes turned around and threatened fiercely, not hiding the secret of the hole at all.
The children were trembling with fear.
Mrs. Cao and the bearded man were very satisfied with everyone's reaction and chuckled: "Are you full? Have a good sleep and I will take you to a good place at night."
His eyes swept over A Zhen and Xiao Fuyuan.
Look at that leather, that look, it’s top quality!
Mrs. Cao and the bearded man walked to the door and locked it.
"Wait a minute."
A voice attracted everyone's attention.
Xiao Fuyuan saw Chunya stumble towards the door with her hair disheveled, holding on to the doorframe with both arms, and ducking her head into the crack of the door.
"You want to run away, girl? Let you taste my power." Mrs. Cao slapped her on the head.
Chun Ya retracted her head, but Mrs. Cao didn't hit her.
"I...I am useful to you." Chunya mustered up the courage to raise her head and said.
Mrs. Cao, who slapped her again, hesitated, looked at her playfully, and smiled: "Little girl, are you useful? Who here is useless?"
Chunya's eyes flashed, and she gritted her teeth and said, "I recognize...I recognize the children in the surrounding villages..."
Xiao Fuyuan almost wanted to roll her eyes after hearing her words.
Is Chun Ya going to join if he can't beat him?
Mrs. Cao and the bearded man looked at each other without comment.
"I can also make fires and cook. I'm very capable."
Seeing that the two people in front of her were a little loose, Chunya thought this was my last chance and I must seize it.
She is older than the children here and probably knows what a medicine introduction is.
Even if you want to die, it is better to win.
Anyway, her life was not that good in the past. She was called a loser at home, and after her father died, her father and mother wanted to sell her to a maid, a concubine, and a child bride.
She had had enough.
"I can catch more children." Chun Ya said through gritted teeth.
"That beautiful girl has four children at home."
Little Fuyuan was eating melon when Chun Ya pointed at her. Xiao Fuyuan was speechless. Do you want to catch all the fifth brother and three nephews in one go?
"The boy sitting with her has a very rich family. Not only can he be used as a medicine guide, but he can also make money from him." Chunya pointed at Ah Zhen.
"Oh, how do you make money?" the bearded man asked.
"If my brother is caught... and asks for money from my family, my father and mother will pay for it if they sell their house or land. For a rich man like him, I'm afraid the money will be even more..." A smile appeared on Chunya's face. .
Mrs. Cao and the bearded man were moved. They had wanted to do this for a long time, but they were afraid that if someone discovered their traces, the superiors would execute them if they found out.
But money moves people's hearts, and Chunya's words arouse their hearts that are ready to move.
Chun Ya noticed the changes in their faces, and her heart dropped slightly in her throat.
"Also, that little girl's family is in the capital. That little boy's family owns a bun shop in Nanguan Town. The little girl next to the boy has no money in the village; the boy sitting with the little girl's family owns a cloth shop. …”
Xiao Fuyuan sighed, Chunya, Chunya, if you ask about everyone's background, it turns out that they were sold to kidnappers for glory.
The children who were identified looked at Chunya angrily.
Mrs. Cao's eyes flashed, she looked Chun Ya up and down, and said with a smile: "Little girl, you are so thoughtful, you know their situation clearly."
To do this in such a panic situation can be regarded as a talent.
"Please ask Auntie to accept me as a disciple, it will be my destiny." Chunya looked eager.
Mrs. Cao pondered for a while and said, "Come out with me and be smarter from now on."
Chun Ya was overjoyed and stepped out of the door.
The bearded man clicked the lock.
"Shameless, betraying us."
"It's a shame that I still treat her as my big sister, woo woo woo."
"She also defrauded me of my buns."
"Traitor, shameless."
…
Everyone was more angry about this traitor than the kidnapper, and wanted to tear her into pieces.
A Zhen glanced at everyone and said: "Whoever wants to join the kidnappers should go as soon as possible."
The children don't talk.
A Zhen continued: "She will not have a good outcome. If I say someone will come to save us, someone will come to save us. Please hold on."
Everyone shook their heads and said they wouldn't join if they couldn't beat it.
Shitou knew Xiao Fuyuan, so he walked to Xiao Fuyuan's side and cried, "How come Sister Mai Miao was also arrested?"
Shitou expressed doubts about A Zhen's statement. Sister Mai Miao's big sword trick made it impossible for others to get close to her, and they could all be tied up, let alone children like them who had no power to tie a chicken.
"Just now, in that cave..." Feng Zhiheng pointed to the back of the meditation bed, very afraid that he would be tied up and thrown in.
A Zhen ignored them, stood up, pursed his lips, and walked toward the back of the Zen bed without saying a word.
Xiao Fuyuan followed.
Shitou and Feng Zhiheng hesitated for a moment and then walked over.
Xiao Fuyuan took off the mallet and knocked several times on the wooden fish.
Sure enough, the closed floor opened again.
The same young man with a numb face came up.
Seeing Xiao Fuyuan and A Zhen, he was slightly startled, but this time he did not shrink back.
"How many people are down there?" A Zhen asked directly.
The young man pursed his lips and his face returned to numbness.
"We are here to rescue you." Xiao Fukuoka said.
The young man glanced at them, indifferent.
That's right. With the two children in front of me, it's simply impossible to say that we can save people.
Regardless of what he thought, Azhen and Xiao Fuyuan slipped into the hole.
Shitou and Feng Zhiheng hesitated and then got in.
After entering, Xiao Fuyuan discovered that the door could only be pushed open from the inside, but could not be opened from the outside.
The people inside took the sound of the wooden fish as a signal and pushed the door open.
Connecting to the entrance of the cave is a narrow passage. Xiao Fuyuan and A Zhen climbed in one after the other.
After a while, a huge cave appeared in front of me.
With the faint light, Xiao Fuyuan saw a person lying on the ground, seemingly struggling slightly.
"Sister Mai Miao." Xiao Fuyuan quickly ran to Tian Mai Miao and whispered in her ear.
