Ye Xiaoman stabilized his mind and said with a smile: "Since he is sick, he can't relieve the boredom of the eldest lady anymore, I'll take him back." ”

"What do you tell me about this kind of trivial matter, go and go."

Miss Yu waved her hand impatiently.

The housekeeper hurriedly took Ye Xiaoman and Tao Ran away.

On the corridor, Ye Xiaoman once again proposed to take Qi Shan away.

The housekeeper looked embarrassed and said, "This, the eldest lady didn't give me any words." ”

Tao Ran stuffed the silver in the past.

Although the eldest lady didn't say it explicitly, the meaning of her words was already clear, and she didn't need Qi Shan to serve her. He's sick, so instead of causing trouble in the house, let's take him home. ”

Seeing that the housekeeper still didn't let go, Ye Xiaoman said: "The eldest lady likes the cloth I dyed very much, and she will definitely ask for it again in the future, how about I say more good things for the housekeeper when the time comes?" ”

The housekeeper thought for a moment, then nodded, and led the two to the back.

Turning around, they stopped in front of a tall courtyard.

There was actually someone guarding the small courtyard, and when they saw the housekeeper, the caretaker looked a little nervous and asked them who they were looking for.

The housekeeper told him what he meant, and when he heard that he was going to take Qi Shan away, the caretaker breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It turned out that he was looking for him, it's okay, he's still alive." ”

Nothing alive?

The uneasiness in Ye Xiaoman's heart gradually expanded.

As soon as the courtyard door opened, she couldn't wait to walk in.

In the middle of the courtyard is a stone road, and on both sides of the road are low stone houses, the doors and windows of which are all iron fences, and the inside is black, and some of the houses still emit a strange smell.

Ye Xiaoman secretly gritted his teeth.

This is a place where people live, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a prison. I don't know what kind of life Qi Shan has been living these days, so she said that she shouldn't have left people here in the first place.

Tao Ran also looked surprised, he thought that Qi Shan served the eldest lady in the county official mansion, even if he didn't eat and drink spicy food, he should have a high bed and soft pillows, how could he live in such a place?

The caretaker led them to the sixth stone house, took out a bunch of keys, and unlocked the iron lock on the door.

Why lock?

Tao Ran noticed that there were at least twenty keys on this string, that is, there were more than twenty people locked up here?

"Shanzi!"

Ye Xiaoman just entered, and before his eyes could adjust to the darkness in the room, he hurriedly called Qi Shan's name.

There was no answer.

Tao Ran also shouted: "Shanzi? Shanzi! Where are you? ”

There was a movement in the corner of the room.

Ye Xiaoman adapted to the darkness in the house, and hurriedly ran over with his clothes.

When she ran closer, she covered her mouth, and tears fell out on the spot.

Qi Shan can eat, and after the family has a better life, he has gained a lot of weight.

But now, the man lying on the ground, skinny and bony, with a thick swollen head, a large head and a small body, like a rat dying of hunger.

Yes, lying on the ground!

Qi Shan has actually slept on the ground for the past ten days, and he doesn't even have a bed!

What's even more terrifying is that in the faint light, Ye Xiaoman saw that Qi Shan's clothes were torn, and the broken places were blurred with flesh and blood, knife wounds, whip wounds, and burns...... Layer upon layer, shocking.

Sensing that someone was approaching, Qi Shan was so frightened that he hid back, couldn't speak, and made a "ho-ho" sound in his mouth.

"Shanzi is not afraid." Ye Xiaoman wiped away his tears, slowly approached him, and said softly: "It's me, I'm Xiaoman, don't be afraid, Shanzi, I'll take you home." ”

Go home? Xiaoman?

Qi Shan understood, no longer retreated, and curled up a little to reveal a face covered with scars.

There was not a piece of good meat on his whole face, and his nose collapsed, and I don't know if it was broken or cut off.

What's even more terrifying is that Qi Shan's mouth was sewn up with thread, and the blood stained the cotton thread black, no wonder he couldn't speak.

Ye Xiaoman couldn't help it and cried.
