Mo Ling got up and skipped the girls lying on the fence, looking at the surroundings by the light of the fire.

On the opposite side is also a cell, in which there are also many girls, holding the fire fold to the side, frowning, why is this place so strange, not like a simple dungeon, there are iron fences on the left and right, like a prison cell used by the government to hold prisoners.

It's not right, the prison cell is the territory of the government, and there is no reason why traffickers would lock girls up here...

His eyes narrowed, no, there is another possibility, the government and the traffickers colluded with each other to abduct and sell the girl, so those traffickers will blatantly lock the girl here.

To confirm his suspicions, Mo Ling asked the girls, "Do you know who you have kidnapped from?"

The girls lowered their heads in unison, not daring to speak, just hugging their heads helplessly and crying.

A bold girl got up and walked to Mo Ling, she didn't cry, she looked at Mo Ling a few times: "Look at your dress is the daughter of a rich family, you look good and good-looking, alas... It's a shame to be abducted here. ”

"Do you know anything you can tell me?"

"I was abducted a month ago, and this is the lair of traffickers who kidnap beautiful girls here and sell them to brothels or men in the mountains. The girl sighed.

"You get ready, you look so good, you will definitely be bought into the Qinglou. ”

Mo Ling looked at her a little funny, "You're not afraid?"

The girl shrugged indifferently, "I'm afraid I'll get used to it later, my name is Xiaoxiao, and a few days after I was abducted, they sold me into the Qinglou, because I had a big scar on my back, and the bustard didn't want me, and then the traffickers changed hands to other bustards several times, and no one wanted me." After that, they bought me into the mountains to be a child bride for those men, but because... I was so good that the poor couldn't afford to support me, so they sent me back. The rich and noble families disliked the scars on my back, the poor families couldn't support me, and the traffickers didn't let me go, so I stayed here all the time. However, it doesn't matter, my parents have a lot of children, and my family is very poor, so it's not bad to be able to eat enough every day here. ”

The corners of Mo Ling's mouth twitched after listening, "Okay... You didn't even think about running away?"

In fact, she could have a chance to escape, such as in the mountains.

"Heh, run away? Do you know who is behind this scene? Shuntian Mansion Yin, Zou Ming, the most powerful person in this city. Shuntianfu was originally a protective umbrella to protect the people, but he didn't expect to collude with human traffickers to persecute the people, just for his own selfish desires, it's really ridiculous! Who in Blue City doesn't know about this!" A sarcasm appeared in the girl's eyes.

Mo Ling was shocked, she didn't expect to guess her correctly!

"I'm a pedestrian, but I see the city is quite lively. ”

"That's all an illusion, Zou Ming controls this city, secretly sends people to monitor the people, who dares to reveal the dirtiness of the city to tourists, he will immediately kill people, who dares to say in order to live?"

Mo Ling was full of anger when he heard this, and his parents and officials treated the people like this!

The other girls nodded their heads and cried, "My father... It was killed by Zou Ming..."

"Zou Ming's power is monstrous, who of us dares to compete with him..."

"What is the difference between this city and the prison cell, the people in the city spend every day in fear, just afraid that Zou Ming will kill people, it is really better to live than to die, but for the sake of his family and children, he has to steal his life. ”

"Not only that, but he also asked the people to pay 1,000 taels of silver per household every month, and if they couldn't pay it, they took girls to pay..."

"I was arrested by Zou Ming because my family was poor..."

"There are also those wealthy businessmen who have colluded with Zou Ming to set up private auction halls in secret, mainly auctioning girls..."

The girls opened their eyes helplessly, accusing Zou Ming of various crimes.

Mo Ling's eyes were filled with monstrous anger, and his angry chest rose and fell violently, "This city is close to Kyoto, and there are people at the feet of the Son of Heaven who despise the royal law so much! Why don't you go and present it to the emperor?"

Xiao Xiao sneered, "I don't know how many people went to report, but before they could go a mile, they were killed by Zou Ming! The emperor? The emperor was concerned about this city? Can he investigate this city? Has he come to inspect this city in person? What he saw was only the illusion that Zou Ming presented, so he believed it." What is the difference between the emperor and the emperor's not! Heh, it is said that Emperor Mo cares about the people, and his heart is for the people of Kyoto! Has he ever cared about whether we are dead or alive! Has he ever heard the people's cries and complaints! Has he ever paid attention to the sufferings of the Ming Dynasty!

Mo Ling lowered his head and had mixed feelings in his heart, there are so many cities in the Mo Heavenly Kingdom, it is impossible for the imperial uncle to care about them one by one, but... It was indeed his negligence that allowed this group of people to live in dire straits.

"Xiaoxiao, don't worry, I swear I'll get you out. ”

Xiao Xiao glanced at her and patted her shoulder, "Don't be whimsical, no one can escape if they fall into Zou Ming's hands, little sister, look at it, don't think about looking for death, it's better to die than to live, maybe... That's it. ”

After saying that, she sat in the corner by herself, her eyes were like dead ashes, including the other girls, and when she heard this, she lowered her head in unison, and her eyes were also like dead ashes.

They have been locked up in a dark cell for many days, how can they get out, and this city is like a purgatory on earth, even if they get out?

Mo Ling clenched her fists, it was their royal family who was sorry for these girls, sorry for the people of this city, as a member of the royal family, she would definitely seek justice for the people!

"Don't worry, I'll get you out!"

"Sister, to put it mildly, you are too busy to take care of yourself, how can you save us..."

"Forget it, as long as Zou Ming is here, he will be arrested again when he goes out. ”

"As long as there is him one day, this city will be like a purgatory on earth, and the people will be worse than death!"

At this time, the sound of the overseer's footsteps suddenly came, and the girls were silent, not daring to say more.

Mo Ling sat down and looked up at the fence.

From the dungeon came several men dressed as servants, with torches and chains in their hands.

"Meow!

Hearing this cat's name, Mo Ling's heart tightened, Xiao Jiu'er won't be caught, right...

Just as he was thinking, a servant appeared in front of everyone with the neck of the little black cat, and Xiao Jiu'er angrily stretched out his paws and kicked in the air.

"Meow! "Damn! let go of me!"

The official glanced around the girl, his gaze stopped at Mo Ling, and the corners of his mouth flashed with sarcasm, "You still want to go out to ventilate and report the news?"

Mo Ling hurriedly got up, and his tone softened, "This cat is a coward, it may have run out when it was scared, there is no ventilation to report, don't hurt it." ”

The official snorted coldly and threw Xiao Jiu'er into the cell, "Hmph! This city is the territory of adults, who will come to save you! You all dispel my thoughts of going out, eat well to nourish your body, you are too thin to sell for a good price!"

"Yes, what the adults said is that we will be obedient. After speaking, Mo Ling picked up Xiao Jiu'er, touched its head, and signaled it not to scream.

Xiao Jiu'er glared at the servants angrily, these scumbags!

Then the annoyed bottom of the head, I didn't expect to be discovered, it's really hateful!

After listening to Mo Ling's words, the official looked curious, "I haven't seen you, you must be a traveling pedestrian, and now that you are arrested, you are not afraid?"

"I'm afraid, of course I'm afraid, but I'm even more afraid of death, my lord, I listen to you, don't kill me..."

The servant smiled evilly, and a hint of lewdness appeared in his eyes, "Little sister is so beautiful, how could I be willing to kill you, adult... Alas, it's just too young, otherwise you can be happy first. ”

"Haha, it's okay now!" the other officials followed.

"I'm too young to be that interested, so let's get down to business first. The servant said, glancing at the girls with his torches.

"You, you, you and you, get up!"

The girls who were ordered trembled slightly, and there was a deep despair in their eyes when they lowered their heads, and now it's their turn...

The official chained the girls and took them to leave, when Mo Ling cried: "My lord, it's so dark here, I beg you to take me out, please..."

Impatience appeared on the face of the leading officer, "It's not your turn yet, you stay first, and I will send you to the Qinglou in a few days." ”

"My lord, I'll go to the Qinglou with you now, please... It's scary here, please take me out..."

A small-eyed official looked at Mo Ling a few times, "Boss, Chen Fujia likes little girls the most, why don't you give her to him, I think I can get a lot of silver tickets enough for my brother to drink flower wine." ”

"Okay, lock her up. ”

"Thank you, sir, thank you..." Mo Ling put Xiao Jiu'er on his shoulders, honestly stretched out his hands, and let them lean on.

Xiao Xin looked at Mo Ling anxiously, this little sister is a stupid, why is she in such a hurry to go out into the fire pit!

The official locked Mo Ling and escorted the girl forward, Mo Ling saw this prison clearly by the light of the fire, there were a total of five dungeons, and dozens of girls were locked up in each cell, some of them were older and some of them were younger, all of them were good-looking girls.

When those girls saw Mo Ling, they cast sympathetic glances, but they only looked away, thinking that it would be their turn soon...

After walking through a dark path, you will come to the exit.

After staying in the dungeon for a long time, Mo Ling suddenly felt a little uncomfortable with the darkness, raised his hand to cover his eyes, and only put down his hand after a while.

Looking around, it turned out that this place was an underground prison, no wonder it would be dark. At this time, there were hundreds of people guarding outside, all of them were officials.

Mo Ling pursed his lips, if he used the spatial ring to kill them with a sword, it would be difficult.

Approaching Xiao Jiu'er and whispering, "Run." ”

Xiao Jiu'er nodded obediently, and immediately let go of the girl and ran away like a gust of wind.

Mo Ling looked in the direction where Xiao Jiu'er ran away, and shouted angrily: "Damn beast, the old lady is so good to you, and now you have abandoned me and fled alone, what a beast with no conscience!"

After howling, he looked at the official and said hatefully: "My lord, go and catch this conscienceless cat back, I have to kill it, I'm angry!"

"Catch it, it's just a livestock, just run away, the little sister will send you to eat and drink spicy food, wear gold and jade, if you please the rich merchant, let alone a cat, even hundreds of rich merchants will send you." ”

Mo Ling waved his hand angrily, "That's it, that's it, I don't want it." ”

"A few of you will send these four girls to the Qinglou, and the others will follow me to Chen Fushang. ”

"Yes, Boss. ”

Several officials escorted Mo Ling into a carriage and staggered forward.
