Little Alido has been living in deep fear for nearly two days.

Shortly after they were forcibly put into the carriage that day, the children were sent to a small courtyard outside the city. After being roughly dragged off the carriage by the driver, Alido was surprised to find that there was more than one carriage parked in the small courtyard, and in those carriages there were children who looked her age who were being dragged down by the coachmen as if they were carrying goods.

A few of the sturdy children, seeing that something was wrong, tried to struggle to escape from the yard, but after being beaten with a horsewhip by the fierce coachmen, they lost their strength and fell to the ground moaning.

"Little bastard, I told you to run!"

"Open your way...... Master...... Whining...... Stop it. ”

For a while, all that was in the small courtyard was the frightened cries of the children and the shouts of the grooms.

Alido's little body trembled so much, but instead of crying, she crouched down by the wheel of the carriage, biting her lower lip, and holding her thin little knees tightly, shrinking her little body into a ball, and for as long as she could remember, whenever she was afraid, she would shrink like a wounded kitten to a place where adults could not see.

Alido was a very smart child, and not long after she was dragged out of the car, she became acutely aware that the people who had taken her away from the fruit and vegetable shop were not trying to send her and her companions to work as a day worker in a farm. Alido already had the answer in her mind, but she didn't dare to face the thought in her heart.

When Alido was eight years old, there was a child who had a good time with her in the mushroom and fruit shop, and after a rain in September, the child suddenly disappeared, but all the adults did not have any unusual looks on their faces, only that the child's parents suddenly had an extra sum of money from nowhere.

"Abba...... Grandma ......" Crystal tears fell from the little girl's eyes, and she knew very well in her heart that her friend's fate might have fallen on her. Little Alido is already a homeless child.

At last the little lambs regained their composure under the shepherd's whip, and under the frightened gaze of the children, the coachmen gathered all the children who had been brought, and then they stood aside, watching all the exits, as if waiting for someone to arrive.

After about two quarters of an hour, an old woman came out of the only thatched hut in the courtyard, carrying in her hand a large steaming wooden barrel, the huge size of the barrel, which looked a strange contrast with the old woman's thin body.

Behind the old woman, followed by an expressionless middle-aged man, Alido couldn't help but feel a little deeper in his heart when he saw the man for the first time, because under the man's weathered but handsome face, there was an ugly and hideous scar engraved on his neck, which was still intimidating when viewed from afar.

The old woman glanced at the children who were huddled in the middle of the courtyard, although her eyes were kind, but they made the children feel furious, she nodded with satisfaction, looked at the middle-aged man beside her, and said with a smile: "Elder Ling, what do you think of these babies?" ”

"It's your business." The middle-aged man's gaze turned on the children's body for a moment and then quickly avoided it, "The standard of the altar's construction is completely enough to withstand the weight of these children on the cliff. ”

"Good! Good! The old woman smiled, "Now that the water gate arrays at the entrances of the various secret passages have been built, and the path of travel after the birth of Lingbao has been completely sealed, the treasures in the Kenbin forbidden area can already be said to be in the bag of our clan!" When this mission is successfully completed, the old body will definitely personally ask the Black Lord for the elder's credit! The elder's previous request will definitely be agreed to by the Lord. ”

The middle-aged man was silent.

The middle-aged man didn't stay long, and left in a hurry after a few simple explanations, leaving only the old woman standing in place, she glanced at the children with a smile, and all the children who were targeted by her eyes were all inexplicably chilling in their hearts.

"Alright, good boys, giggles." The old woman's throat let out a hoarse laugh, "Mother-in-law, I'm going to take you to a very interesting place, where there is endless honey and barbecue, and endless milk, do you want to go with your mother-in-law?" ”

A few of the more courageous children hesitated for a moment, then nodded gently.

"If you want to follow your mother-in-law there, you have to do something for your mother-in-law first." As she spoke, the old woman placed the heavy wooden bucket in her hand in front of the children, and then, as if by magic, took out a long spoon from her robe, "Come, come one by one, and drink the soup in the bucket." ”

The children looked at the soup bucket, and inside the large wooden barrel, which was as tall as the children's chests, contained half a barrel of purple and black thick soup, which was steaming outward, and from time to time bubbles bubbled. Strange to say, the hot soup did not smell a single smell, even the children standing on the edge of the barrel.

"Come, start with you." The old woman beckoned to the boy standing nearby, her eyes faintly glowing with purple.

The boy didn't want to go over, but his body was like a marionette, and he couldn't help but walk towards the old woman.

"This ...... What's going on? My hands and feet are no longer at my disposal! The boy cried out in horror.

As if she hadn't heard the boy's screams, the old woman put the spoon into the bucket and scooped out a spoonful of the soup and brought it to the boy's mouth.

"Drink it."

"I ...... I don't want to ......," the boy's voice cried.

The old woman didn't say much, she suddenly stretched out her withered and old arm, and pinched the boy's chin with her left hand, the boy couldn't help but open his mouth under the pain, the old woman stuffed the long spoon into the boy's mouth, and then gently pushed the boy's chin up with her left hand, and the thick soup poured into the boy's stomach.

After drinking the soup, the boy's face turned purple, his hands limply grabbed his throat, his mouth snorted, and then he rolled on the ground, his expression was rather painful.

All the children were frightened by this scene, and they tried to run away, but all of them felt as if their legs were frozen and could not move a single bit.

The old woman laughed again, and seemed to be satisfied with the children's reaction, "Don't be afraid, children, drink this soup, and you will be reborn and ushered in a new life, giggles." ”

After saying this, the old woman muttered in a low voice, "Before sending the animals to the altar, they must be washed well, don't they......"
