Chapter Seventy-Eight: Beaten
What is there to be afraid of?
Should this be the answer of a normal child?
Wen Anan looked at the little girl for a long time before he stumbled back: "It's difficult, shouldn't you be afraid?" ”
The little girl shrugged her shoulders, pouted her lips with indifference on her face, and smiled at her, "Maybe." But I'm looking forward to what comes next."
Looking at the girl's indifferent expression, Wen An even had an illusion in his heart in an instant. Either he is too abnormal, or this world is too crazy. Otherwise, why do you feel that she has become an outlier in front of this girl?
Thinking back and forth from surprise, Wen Anan said to the girl a little anxiously: "Do you know what it means that these people have sold us." My face is fine, as beautiful as you, do you know what it means"
"I know the way"
Different from the playful appearance that she didn't care about just now, the girl who softly interrupted Wen An'an's words instantly revealed a faint pathos on her face, but the almost invisible expression quickly disappeared under the girl's smile, like a flash in the pan, revealing the beauty of loneliness and desolation.
"I know it, but, I guess, it can't be worse than living like that, right?"
Wen An'an couldn't imagine what could be worse than living in a brothel. But she knew that there must be more painful memories in this little girl.
Perhaps, this is also why she is facing her hideous face, and she will not be frightened.
Perhaps, this is why she is so calm when she is sold.
Although I don't know what kind of life the little girl in front of Lu Dao lived before, I can know from that sentence that the pain she has endured is definitely not worth mentioning in front of her.
There wasn't a moment for her to feel it. She is so lucky to have a complete home and a few family members who love her.
This belief also strengthened her determination to escape.
Just when Wen An'an secretly swore to himself, the moving carriage slowly stopped.
Wen Anan didn't care about thinking about anything else, and immediately leaned to the side of the carriage, holding the wooden board to observe the situation outside the carriage.
The place where the carriage stopped now seemed to be still in the suburbs, and there was nothing to be seen outside except for the rocks and weeds. But. Wen An'an still noticed a slight difference. That is, the road they are on now seems to be much smoother than when they usually moved.
After four years of wandering, she could see at a glance that the carriage was parked on the official road. If it's official, it means that they're close to a town.
Does that mean that they will pass through the town, and she will have a chance to find an escape?! Hold back the excitement in your heart. Wen Anan clenched his fists, as if he was ready to flee at any moment.
But before Wen An'an was excited for a while, the whisper next to her knocked her back into the mud from the clouds: "They are waiting for someone to send the child."
Turning his head stiffly, Wen An'an's eyes widened. Looking at the little girl in disbelief.
When the little girl nodded affirmatively, Wen An'an's nerves, which were tense with excitement, suddenly broke off, causing her to sit on the car board weakly.
After striking Wen An'an. The little girl didn't say anything more, touched Wen An'an's head, and returned to her original position. Close your eyes and refresh yourself.
About an hour later, Wen An'an heard a voice from a distance.
"Brother Qiu, this time it's a lot of effort for my brother."
"Okay, Liuzi, don't shout poor to Lao Tzu here"
"Brother Qiu, it's really not that I call it poor, it's just that you also know that the imperial court has been investigating the affairs of the shabby general recently, so these 'goods' have taken me a lot of effort, so"
"Alright, alright, don't you just fucking want to ask for more money. If it weren't for the mother's tightness recently, Lao Tzu would have made you a coincidence. Okay, don't talk nonsense, I'll add you another twenty taels at most"
"Brother Qiu, add some more, fifty taels"
"Don't fucking inch in, twenty taels, if you want it, if you don't, get out. I look at these 'goods', except for now I dare to ask for them, who else dares to take them. If no one answers, see how you kid shoots."
After hesitating for a while, Wen Anan heard the man cry helplessly.
"Okay, count me out of luck. Twenty taels is twenty taels, this time it's a fucking loss."
After the people outside had finished bargaining, Wen An'an heard a sound similar to the handling, as well as the cursing of several men.
After a while, the door was opened from the outside.
The dazzling sunlight shone into the dark car, making the two people who had been in the dark compartment for a long time raise their hands to cover the sun, squinting their eyes slightly to adapt.
While Wen An'an and the little girl were still with their eyes closed, the man outside threw a few sacks into the carriage as if he were throwing goods.
In a few moments, five or six sacks filled the wagon, and there was no place to stay.
Some of the sacks lying on the board of the car did not move at all, but some of them made a whining sound.
Wen An looked at the sack under his feet, and instinctively reached out to untie the rope tied on it.
"Big teeth, 'goods' are loaded"
With the disappearance of the last few words, Wen Anan felt a sudden strong force, and pulled her out of the carriage by the collar.
"Let go of me, bastard, let go of me"
was lifted into the air by the man, Wen Anan grabbed the hand holding her neckline with both hands, and kept kicking and kicking her in mid-air with both feet, trying to get the man to put her down.
But no matter how much she moved, she couldn't shake it in the slightest.
Due to Wen An'an's shouting, another man hurriedly ran over from the back of the car and asked the man holding Wen An'an in a panic: "Brother Qiu, what's wrong, what's wrong, ah"
The man who was still talking, suddenly saw Wen Anan in mid-air, and sat on the ground in fright.
"This, this, where did this thing come from?"
"Fuck, that slut"
As the words fell, Wen Anan only felt that after a few laps in the air, he fell heavily to the ground.
Although the official road is much smoother than the mountain road, no matter how smooth the road is, it is impossible to compare with the modern asphalt road. There are stones on the asphalt road, not to mention the gravel everywhere.
Therefore, Wen An'an, who was thrown down, rolled on the ground several times, and she even had a pain in her bones from the stones and branches. After rolling a few laps, Wen Anan was able to stop. However, Wen An'an, who stopped, only felt that her whole body was in hot pain, and she didn't need to look at her to know that there must be a lot of scraping skin on her body.
Due to the force of being thrown to the ground too much, Wen Anan only felt that his eyes were full of gold stars at the moment, and his internal organs seemed to be displaced, and every part of his twisted body hurt. The pain was so severe and her head was so drowsy that she lay there for a while, unable to move a finger.
The man sitting on the ground, seeing Wen Anan lying on the ground motionless, stood up in fright and ran to the side of the man before, and said in a trembling voice: "Brother Qiu, this, this, no, yes, no, no, you fell to death."
The man surnamed Qiu glanced at his big teeth with disdain, and scolded in disgust: "Just your mother's guts, you still come out to mix" said while kicking the other party's feet hard. Then he walked in front of Wen An'an and squatted down to check.
Wen An'an, who was pulled by her hair, was forced to raise her head to look at the man in front of her.
The man's skin was dark, his lips were thick, and his nose was a little collapsed, and although each part looked a little ugly, it was strangely harmonious in combination.
However, on the whole face, what disgusted Wen Anan the most was his eyes, the hanging eyes were slightly raised on the temples, and the eyes were full of thick anger, but looking at these eyes, he knew that this man was not a good person.
The man looked at the hideous scars on both sides of Wen An'an's face, and felt a wave of anger rushing against his chest, and he couldn't find an outlet to vent.
In order to calm his anger, the man surnamed Qiu raised his hand and slapped Wen Anan several times. made Wen An'an, who was already confused, almost faint.
But being able to faint at this time seems to be a luxury for Wen An'an.
Although her head was groggy now, she could clearly feel her swollen and hot face, and the warm blood at the corners of her mouth.
"Brother Qiu, what are you going to do with this child? It's not going to be killed."
"Killed?"
Wen An'an followed the gentle rise and fall of the man in front of him, and his heart also fell.
"How could it be killed. This is the first time that someone dares to play Lao Tzu, and he is still a girl, how can I bear this tone. Take her with you first, and let me think about what to do with him."
Hearing the man say this, Wen Anan was really relieved, at least he showed that he had escaped. However, no one knows what the man in the back is going to do to her, so the plan to escape is much more urgent than just now.
"Big Tooth, go and throw her into the carriage, it's time for the fuck to leave after such a damn delay."
"Hey, damn it, it's really ruthless."
The man holding Wen An'an, seeing that the man surnamed Qiu had come away, looked at Wen An'an's face, pursed his lips and muttered quietly.
"Big Tooth"
"Hey"
"Isn't there a sick one in the car, just let this girl take care of it in the future"
Big Tooth, who was originally whispering bad things, was so frightened that he almost threw Wen An'an out of his hand when he heard the surnamed Qiu turn around and call him.
But when he heard what the other party said about this matter, he immediately responded with a smile on his face.
Daya carried Wen An'an to the back of the carriage, and saw the little girl sitting in the corner looking up at him, so Daya pointed at Wen An'an and instructed her: "You should also hear what you just said, let this girl take care of that boy in the future." This will also save you a lot of things, but don't help her take care of her, otherwise she will be seen by Qiu Donkey, but it's terrible."
The little girl listened to Big Tooth's command, nodded expressionlessly, then closed her eyes again and rested. (To be continued......)
