0855 Overnight in the mountains
The women had two babies under the age of one month in their arms, both of whom were not registered.
But these did not attract Yan Bei's attention, her attention was all on the woman with her hair next to Li Xiaoxue.
She was very thin, the kind of thin way that only had a layer of skin left on her body, sitting crooked in the car body, her head resting on Li Xiaoxue's legs, her long hair covering most of her face, and only a pair of big eyes staring at a certain place.
Her mind was a little abnormal, she was only wrapped in a sheet, and she didn't seem to feel cold, and she didn't say anything.
An old man who looked to be sixty years old sat behind her, his gaze unwavering as he skimmed over her.
It was as if the woman at his feet was not a person, but an object.
Yan Bei and Qiangzi led the dog and the baby into the car, squeezing at the tail of the bucket, Yan Bei took out the blanket prepared by Mrs. Zhao and covered the two children, and asked the woman next to her softly:
"Sister-in-law, what's wrong with her?"
She didn't ask who she was, which would expose herself.
The woman who was asked had washed the dishes with Yan Bei when she was helping to cook at Liu's house, and when she heard her ask, she shook her head and sighed:
"It's also pitiful, I was beaten by her man and my nerves were a little abnormal."
When she said this, her voice was very small, but it still drew the old man's displeased glare.
In the eyes of this old man, Yan Bei saw tyranny.
Come to think of it, this woman with a disheveled hair is the poor woman who was locked up in the cellar.
Yan Bei had thought about her appearance, but the impact of reality on her was far more shocking than she imagined!
This woman did not live like a human being at all, not even as an animal, because the old man did not see her as a human being at all.
The lower legs exposed outside the sheets were full of bruises, this leg was like a dried corpse, there was no flesh at all, Yan Bei couldn't imagine how she was tortured to become what she was now.
The old man's glaring glare frightened the sister-in-law, and Yan Bei couldn't hear any more information.
The two children in her arms shrank into her arms a little frightened, Yan Bei hugged them tightly, and quietly lifted the blanket up, blocking the sight of the two children.
There was no sun today, the sky was overcast, the wind was a little strong, and people were sitting in the open air, and their faces were blown painfully.
In the past, Qiangzi often took his daughter-in-law to hide in the mountains, and he remembered his old mother's advice and stayed next to Yan Bei to prevent her from escaping.
It was still the case, the car was small, Yan Bei was almost squeezed by him several times, glared at him fiercely as a warning, and he was far away.
The tricycle swayed up the mountain, it was a path that Yan Bei had never seen before, and I heard the people around him say that it was a mountain road that was driven by outsiders when they came to collect timber.
Now the timber boss is gone, the road has not been walked for a long time, and it is especially muddy on rainy days.
Fortunately, it hasn't rained in the past few days, and the road is a little bumpy, and the road is smooth.
The car walked around the hill for about an hour before reaching the top of the slope.
The sisters-in-law around me said that in the past, there would be police officers or other leaders who suddenly wanted to go up the mountain to have a look, so they couldn't stop now, and they had to continue to walk deep into the mountains and forests.
Yan Bei was not worried about the strong son, so he kept holding his two children and followed the army to the mountains.
The time was too long, and she had no time to calculate how far she had walked, except that it was already noon when she set off in the morning and stopped.
Everyone stopped on a small flat land at the top of the mountain, where a few simple huts made of cedar bark were built to keep out some snow.
Along the way, the corpse-like woman was carried by the old man.
When he was tired, he would put the woman down and hit her, only to see that everyone around him frowned.
Liu Shan and others stepped forward several times to persuade him, but this old man was in the way of face, so he let go of his woman.
While waiting in the "camp", Yan Bei learned about the dried corpse woman from the other women.
It turned out that this woman's name was Jiang Caiyue, who was sold by traffickers for the second time, and her mind was already a little unclear when she sold it to an old man, and it was because of this that the first buyer chose to sell her.
It's really pitiful, the old man has been a bachelor all his life, and the villagers thought that he would be in good pain if he got a daughter-in-law, but no one thought that he was actually a sadist.
When Jiang Caiyue first came, she would smile with others or talk, but in less than half a month, she was tortured by the old man and ran away three times.
was chased back again and again, and the last time he was directly locked in the cellar and stripped naked and locked up.
Everyone knows about this, but no one cares, what is happening around them, everyone seems to be invisible, watching the woman being tortured to the point of being inhuman.
The mountain was very cold at night, and Mrs. Rao was old lady Zhao prepared two thick blankets, but the dog and the baby were still so cold that they shrank straight into Yan Bei's arms, and even the fool Qiangzi was almost frozen and cried.
In the second half of the night, seeing that the big guys were all asleep, Yan Bei stretched out the defensive shield and blocked out all the wind in the entire area.
The reason why she did this was all because of Jiang Caiyue.
The old man, who didn't prepare anything, just covered her with a thin layer of sheets.
Seeing her face turn blue and looking like she was about to die, Yan Bei really couldn't help but be nosy.
Of course, the old man was isolated from the defensive shield alone, and Yan Bei couldn't wait to kill him coldly.
The sudden disappearance of the cold wind made everyone sleep more deeply.
At this time, it was a good time to escape, but no one did.
It's not that I don't want to, but I can't.
The night in the mountains is really dark, you can't see anything when you open your eyes, and even the people around you can't see clearly.
Li Xiaoxue woke up quietly, Yan Bei watched silently, but the other party couldn't see any of her movements.
The sudden disappearance of the cold wind made Li Xiaoxue frown suspiciously, she got up from Liu Shan's side lightly, and wanted to take the opportunity to run away, but found that there was not even a little light in front of her.
Desperate and frustrated, she clenched her fists, and she had to lie back down, wanting to wait for the moment of dawn before acting, but she couldn't hold back the sleepiness that swept over.
For the first time, Yan Bei felt that the night was so long.
In the early morning, as soon as the sky was slightly bright, Liu Shan and the others woke up, lit a fire, and quietly waited for the villagers to come and report the news.
And so on until noon.
The person who came was Liu Shan's cousin, and everyone heard him laugh and shout loudly:
"Let's go, the leader is back, let's go home!"
When everyone in the camp heard this, they immediately stood up in surprise, quickly packed up their things and followed Liu Shan and his cousin down the mountain.
Yan Bei was still holding her two children alone, and Qiangzi walked behind her with a blanket.
Some people couldn't help but be surprised to see her holding two older children back and forth, but the road down the mountain was slippery, and no one had the heart to come over to help her.
