Chapter Eighty-Nine: Traffickers' Dens
Originally, Erbao was still thinking about hiding and playing with his brothers and sisters, but suddenly a black shadow grabbed him directly, and his mouth was covered by that person, and he couldn't scream at all, seeing that the person picked himself up and wanted to run, he quickly touched the marbles that Xiang Jiuling gave them to play on weekdays in his sleeve, and secretly threw them in the corners of every turn.
He knew that his father and mother would definitely come to him, so he had to keep a mark.
This is also the mark that Xiang Jiuling and Wen Xi saw, and following the guidance of this mark, the two soon came to a relatively dilapidated courtyard on the edge of the city.
The courtyard seems to have been abandoned for a long time, and the surrounding greenery has withered a lot, and it has been uninhabited for a long time.
"There's nothing ahead, what should we do?"
The marble was the last one outside the wall, and Xiang Jiuling wasn't sure if the second treasure was gone, or if it had been discovered, or if it was ...... This is the destination!
The two of them glanced at each other, and both looked at the dilapidated courtyard in front of them.
"Let's take a look inside!"
"Good!"
The two of them entered from one side of the wall one after the other, and as soon as they fell, they found that there were people in the house, and the two felt that they were hiding behind the wall and hidden, and secretly looked inside, and after a while, two men in strong suits walked out of the house, and the two looked left and right and went out.
The two looked at each other, and the suspicion in their hearts was even worse.
After the two men left, they quietly touched forward, only to see that the courtyard was very big, this should belong to the front yard, but the front yard was deserted, it seemed that there should be no one, and the two could only continue to touch along the corridor.
Hiding all the way through about two corridors, just saw a newer courtyard gate and heard the movement ahead, the two hurriedly hid behind the bushes on the side, listened carefully, and sure enough, heard someone talking in the courtyard.
"Big brother, we arrested four children today, do we have to send people out as soon as possible, otherwise it will be easy to be detected!"
"No, there are already guests over there who have explained that they want to find a younger boy, the two we caught look a little old, and we have to catch two more, it's okay, don't worry, we'll send the children away in these two days, and then no one can know where these children went, and when we get the money, we can rest for several years!"
"Hey, what the eldest brother said is that there will be a lot of money when we get the money for this batch of goods, and no one will know when we hide at that time, and we will come out to make a profit when the limelight passes!"
"Yes, it's a pity that the girls we caught can't sell for a good price, if only we could catch a few more boys!"
"Don't say it, those people don't understand the market, how good this girl is, if you like it, you will stay at home for a few years, and if you don't like it, you will sell her to the kiln, it is a cash cow to make money!"
"Not really!"
The conversation of several people was taken into the ears of Xiang Jiuling and Wen Xi word for word, it turned out that this was a transit station for individual traffickers, and they specifically abducted and sold children, what a group of scum, and they didn't feel guilty about doing such a lack of morality.
These people are really hateful, why don't they steal children, they know how many families a child will ruin, how many wives will be separated, what a sin!
"It seems that Erbao should have been abducted by them, what should we do now?"
The two had already observed the situation when they came in, there were two courtyards in front and back, listening to their conversation, the children should be locked in the back room, and there were people patrolling or walking around all around, and the preliminary estimate should be that there should be one or twenty people, and they were all carrying long knives.
They can do it if they break through, but it is still a bit difficult to get out safely with the children, so they can't act rashly for the time being.
There were also people guarding the door of the house, and the two could only divide into two ways, Wen Xi was staring outside, and Xiang Jiuling went to the side to explore the reality.
Xiang Jiuling quietly touched the window, fortunately there were no guards here, but it was sealed from the inside, she could only look in from the gap, and sure enough, she found that there were several children tied inside, and Erbao was among them, and sure enough, these people abducted the children.
There were about a dozen children in the room, of all sizes, who were tightly tied, with cloth bags in their mouths to prevent them from screaming, and even their eyes covered with black cloths, which would make them afraid to scream in their hearts.
Seeing that there were so many children inside, Xiang Jiuling also understood that the two of them alone would definitely not be able to take them away safely in front of so many people, and now they could only think of another way.
After looking at the layout inside for a while, Xiang Jiuling quietly touched Wen Xi's side and told him what he saw.
Wen Xi also looked around just now, and found that there were two people around the periphery of the house, four people standing around the outer courtyard, and four more people patrolling the periphery, and it was estimated that there were almost more than ten people in the entire courtyard, and it seemed that he could only think of another way to save people.
However, how to deal with so many people, do you want to call someone to help?
Thinking about it, it still felt a little unrealistic, Xiang Jiuling thought about it and looked at Wen Xi beside him.
Wen Xi was a little troubled by her gaze, and said after a while, "I'll do it, you save people!" ”
Xiang Jiuling hurriedly pulled the person back, "No! ”
The two of them will definitely not be able to take away so many children, and if they are surprised by this time, it will be difficult to find someone at that time.
When the two were struggling, they suddenly saw a person walking in with some wine and food, and happily greeted the four people in the courtyard, "Brothers, come on, big brother bought good wine and meat, everyone relax and drink some!" ”
The people in the courtyard were summoned over, looked at the good wine and meat in front of them, and their eyes were a little eager, but there was still some worry in their eyes, "We will be fine with drinking, right?" ”
"Hey, what's the matter, aren't there still two brothers guarding here, no problem, the brothers in the courtyard outside have already started drinking, okay, the eldest brother said that you can relax, what are you worried about!"
"Haha, too!"
Seeing several people sitting together and starting to drink and eat meat, Xiang Jiuling's eyes suddenly lit up, and he quickly touched his sleeve, and soon found a medicine bag.
Since the last time he took out the drug and took out the thief's den, Xiang Jiuling has been used to preparing some medicine bags on his body, but he didn't expect that there would be a time when it would come in handy again.
"These are secret sweat medicines, find a way to get the medicine into their wine and meat, and we will have a chance!"
Wen Xi nodded when he heard this, and the two immediately divided the labor, Wen Xi went to deal with the few in the front yard, and Xiang Jiuling tried to deal with the few in the courtyard, as for the rest of the people, the two of them could deal with them by force, but it was best to break them individually.
