Volume 1 Entanglement Chapter 10 Abduction and Extortion
At the beginning of the new year, the winter of Xiazhou is covered with snow, the forest is vast, the north wind is blowing, and the ancient city of tranquility has set off thousands of waves and silver waves, and the bandits near Xiazhou City have become more and more frequent recently, and Wei Zhenting is very busy, and Wei Junche will take his two sons and Wen Manping to her mother's house at this time of year, this year is not peaceful, Wei Junche hesitated, Guo Tianqiong sympathized with his subordinates, let Guo Muyu and Guo Mushen come to the government to help, and allowed Wei Junche to take a vacation.
Wei Rouge sent Wei Junche's family out of the city, on the way Wei Junche repeatedly explained, if there is something, send him a letter, he will rush back immediately, Wei Rouge let him rest assured, everyone is here, what can be a big deal.
After sending Wei Junche away, Wei Xiangrou returned to the city alone, stopped and raised his head when passing by the fruit trees, the autumn branches and fruits withered only withered, and the snow trees and silver flowers were in various forms, which made people feel refreshed, it turned out that the winter was so beautiful, and when Guo Mushen was free, he must take him to see.
Seeing that he was distracted, some Orion came to ask for directions, saying that he was going to Yang Pingcheng, I don't know if it was in front, Wei Rongyan told him that he was going in the wrong direction, Yang Pingcheng was on another road, and then he was Xiazhou, and he was showing Orion the way, and there was a strange feeling coming, Wei Rongyan turned back suddenly, and found that the Orion behind him was going to sneak attack her.
"What are you! What to do! Wei Xuanyan hurriedly stepped back and asked sharply.
"The little girl is very clever." Orion showed a sinister smile, no longer hidden, and directly reached out to grab Wei Xuan's shoulder.
At that moment, there was pain, Wei Mingyan quickly untied the big fur on her body, and the shoulder shrunk back to cover Orion's sight, and then kicked the other party's calf bone, she remembered that Guo Mushen said that this place does not carry pain, and being kicked can temporarily delay the enemy's footsteps.
Wei Mingrou, who escaped, hurriedly ran to Xiazhou City, and the Orion, who was cursing in pain behind him, quickly threw off Daqiu and caught up, Wei Rongrou was dragged by the arm again, and she could only shake her fist and hit the shoulder of the big man.
These kung fu are all fists and embroidered legs, and the strength is completely insufficient, Orion looked at his left shoulder and smiled coldly, easily picked up the woman and threw her to the ground, and the painful Wei Rong immediately fainted.
I don't know how long I was in a coma, and when I woke up, I was in a strange place, with a pain on my side, rubbing the bruised Wei Rongyan and sitting up to look around, this is a cage, the air is very humid, it seems to be underground, and there are many people in the cage together, women of different ages, all huddled in the corner and crying.
There are a few guards outside the dungeon, judging from the dialogue and dress, it seems that she is a bandit, could it be that she was caught by a bandit?
Soon Wei Rong's conjecture was confirmed, and the guards saw Wei Xiangyan wake up and asked her to come out and write a letter to her family asking for a ransom, the amount of which was five hundred taels, to be delivered within five days.
According to the request, Wei Rongyan looked carefully while writing, this place should be very large, and there are two or three exits to the prisoner's place, but I don't know where they lead.
After only two glances, someone opened his mouth and scolded and said What is it, the calf is still painful, if you dare to play tricks again, you will slaughter her on the spot, and it is the big man who has taken Wei Rong away who speaks.
Who would have thought that the big man was not frightened after scolding Wei Yuanyan, but stared straight at him, and he didn't lose at all with his ferocity, the man was angry, and he was about to fight when he raised his hand, and the other thieves hurriedly persuaded him to exchange for ransom, if she didn't give money at home, she could clean it up as she wanted.
After writing the letter, Wei Rongyan was put in a cage again, she looked around at the woman she was detaining together, and found a familiar face inside, Aunt Lin, Aunt Lin is from the refugee center, and for some reason she was also arrested.
Aunt Lin said that she just got a gorgeous silk brocade dress donated by a noblewoman, deliberately dressed up and went to the street to wander, did not want to be targeted by the bandits, the thieves also asked her to write a letter, but she had no relatives and no money, just randomly cast an address, counting the time She has been in prison for four days, Aunt Lin also said that if the ransom cannot be paid, the thieves will directly sell them to the Qinglou, some of the thieves are not sold, left in the thieves' den, even more miserable...
On the second day after writing the letter, the thief asked Wei Rouge to come out, saying that he had received a reply from her family, and now he was going to take Wei Rouge to trade and collect money.
Several thieves discussed whether to sell Aunt Lin to the Qinglou, but she couldn't sell it for a good price when she was old, some suggested simply killing it to save trouble, and the others nodded in agreement to drag Aunt Lin away.
"Stop!" Wei Rongyan stopped loudly, and pulled Aunt Lin over, "You just want money, why do you want to kill!" ”
"Stinky girl, don't meddle with things!" The thief dragged Aunt Lin, who was hiding behind Wei Yuan, and scolded viciously, "Go and exchange money obediently, or I will chop you together!" ”
"Give her my share!" Seeing that she couldn't stop it, Wei Wei shouted, "Give her my ransom, and I will ask for it from the family again!" ”
After listening to a few thieves looking at each other, this idea is good, Wei Rong's family gave money so simply, it shouldn't be difficult to ask for it again, and it's better to keep a little girl than a woman, the deal is cost-effective, but...
"What if your family sees that it's not you, and they won't even give the five hundred taels?" The bandit spoke.
"I write to them, and they will understand when they see them."
After speaking, Wei Rongyan immediately took up the pen and wrote a letter to explain the situation briefly, and took off the golden gui and handed it to Aunt Lin, believing that her father could understand when he saw this.
After Aunt Lin was taken away, the bandits began to count other women who were about to reach the deadline, and soon they came into the prison to pull a woman, and the thieves said that they received a reply from the woman's family asking for a few more days, but the thieves were impatient and planned to sell the girl directly to the Qinglou.
The woman resisted vigorously, and as soon as she broke free, she ran to Wei Yuan's side and begged her to help save herself, crying that as long as she waited a few more days, the family would definitely be able to give money.
Wei Rongyan couldn't bear it, and said, "Her family didn't give money, why didn't she even wait for a few more days." ”
The thief stretched out his hand and pulled the woman out, and scolded angrily, "You should be Lao Tzu to open a good hall, her family doesn't want her daughter to make money quickly, what are our treasures, the deadline has passed, and let them go to the Qinglou to redeem themselves!" ”
The pulling bandit was strong, Wei Rouge and the woman beat desperately without any effect on him, in a hurry, Wei Rouge directly mouthed, biting the thief's wrist fiercely, the wrist immediately gushed blood, and the thief who was in pain suddenly threw Wei Rouge away.
"Stinky girl!" This thief is the one who caught Wei Ran, who was angry because Wei Rouge kicked his leg bones bruised and swollen, and was bitten again, and the fierce man rushed towards Wei Ran, who fell to the ground.
Seeing this, the other people around him hurriedly dissuaded them, and they had to exchange them for five hundred taels, endure it, and endure it again.
"What are you arguing about!"
In the middle of the argument, someone came in, and the person who came in was more muscular than the other bandits, and his rough appearance made people feel hateful at first glance, and his exposed arms were full of deep and shallow scars.
As soon as the man entered, all the bandits respectfully stepped forward and shouted to the boss.
The bandit leader glanced at the meat ticket he caught, and all the women immediately shrank in fear and lowered their heads to avoid their sight, Wei Rongyan also bowed his head, but the ruthless light in his eyes was not at all, and the sharp-eyed leader walked over and pinched Wei Rongyan's chin and forced her to raise her head, and sneered, "It's a wild cat, but I haven't played for a long time, send it to me." ”
A thief stepped forward and persuaded the ringleader that this girl was quite valuable, so why not change it.
"Idiot!" The leader slapped his palm on the speaker's head, "Since she is so valuable, what her family wants is naturally for her to go back, so it doesn't matter if it's complete." ”
