Lu Xiaocha’s school bag and watch were taken off.

It didn’t stop until they’d switched vehicles three times, and then she was taken to a remote mountain village.

“How is it? Have you brought her?”

“Yeah. Hurry up and lock her up in the cellar. This is a top-notch good. Be careful not to hurt her.”

The basement was damp and smelled of mold. After Lu Xiaocha was put down, she keenly heard other people’s voices here.

“Behave yourselves! Otherwise, I’ll whip you to death!”

After the threat, they left.

“Wake up, girl. Wake up.”

After the kidnappers left, the cellar was silent for a while. A woman walked up to Lu Xiaocha and shook her a few times.

She opened her eyes. In the dark cellar with only one candle, the beautiful girl’s skin was so fair that it was glowing. She had bright eyes and white teeth. She was as beautiful as a fairy who had accidentally entered the mortal world.

“Were you also kidnapped?”

Lu Xiaocha’s eyes were clear. She did not look like she had been drugged.

But no one could see clearly in this dim place.

“Yes. We were all abducted by those human traffickers.”

Lu Xiaocha could see the situation in the cellar clearly. Including her, there were a total of 12 women. The oldest looked to be only 27 years old.

At this moment, they were gathered together in a panic, their faces and hands more or less injured.

Lu Xiaocha stood up and walked to the cellar door. The exit was above. The human traffickers were smart. When they left, they took the only ladder that could go up. The chances of escaping this way were slim.

“Are you trying to escape?”

A woman with obvious scars on her body spoke in a hoarse voice. Her eyes were dull, and there was deep resentment in their depths.

“It’s useless. We’ve thought about escaping before, but not only are there human traffickers in this village, but there are also a few dogs. Once we go out, we’ll be discovered by those animals.

We were very determined to escape back then with a total of five people, but one of them was bitten to death by those dogs. The rest didn’t end well.”

Lu Xiaocha pursed her lips and said, “I can bring you out.”

She could have taken care of the human traffickers while she was in the car, but after hearing what they said, she guessed that there were other kidnapped people here and had pretended to faint.

The cellar was very quiet. Everyone heard what she said.

Everyone looked over with a spark of hope in their eyes, but when they saw the girl’s “weak” body under the candlelight, they dimmed again.

This young lady was already having a hard time protecting herself, so how could she bring them out?

Lu Xiaocha certainly saw their eyes, but she did not explain.

Her calm appearance seemed a little out of place in the cellar.

The girls couldn’t help but take a few more glances at her.

“How did you all get kidnapped?”

Lu Xiaocha asked.

Perhaps it was because the silence was so oppressive. After a few seconds of silence, they all began to tell their stories.

Most of them were kidnapped when they went out to work and were tricked by a woman called Auntie Yun.

There were also some who were kidnapped because they had just started working and had no money. They rented a relatively remote place and were alone.

“I was sold to those animals by my mother-in-law and husband.”

The person who spoke was the woman who had asked Lu Xiaocha if she wanted to escape.

“My name is Chen Xiaoqian. I’m from the countryside. My family was poor and I only went to junior high school. Later, in order to save money for my brother to go to school, my family asked me to go out and work.

Then, I was married by my parents to an alcoholic for a bride price of over a hundred thousand dollars. His ex-wife couldn’t stand his domestic violence and ran away.”

The woman told her story very calmly, as if she were just a spectator.

However, the surrounding people could not help but reveal looks of disbelief and anger.

“There… here’s actually such a thing. It’s illegal!”

The woman chuckled. “So what? I’m too cowardly to resist. As long as I don’t say anything myself, they have nothing to fear.”

She didn’t look like a coward now. Her heart was probably dead. Coupled with the intense hatred in her heart, it had changed this woman.

“It’s probably because one of them ran away before. That family kept an especially strict watch on me. I did all the housework in the house. They didn’t allow me to go out to work, and I’m not allowed to have any money on me.

Not only did that man drink and commit domestic violence, but he also gambled. He owed a lot of money. They urgently needed money, so they somehow contacted the human traffickers and sold me to them.”

When she finished, she looked calm. “What about you, young lady? How did they capture you?”

Lu Xiaocha said seriously, “I did it on purpose.”

Everyone was speechless.

That look of disbelief was fixed on her.

Lu Xiaocha: Why doesn’t anyone believe me when I tell the truth?

“I have a very bad aunt. She contacted these people and kidnapped me while I was on my way home from school.”

“How can that be!”

“How can there be an aunt like that?”

Lu Xiaocha nodded. That’s right, she could not accept such an aunt, so after she escaped, it would be the woman’s death!

“Snap.”

There was a sound from above the cellar as the door was opened and then a ladder was lowered.

In an instant, the originally relaxed atmosphere seemed to freeze. All the girls looked terrified and shivered as they hugged each other.

Two people started down the stairs.

A tall, strong man dressed as a villager, and a woman carrying food.

“Yo, you awake?”

The man had a cigarette in his mouth. The way he looked at Lu Xiaocha made her very uncomfortable.

“Be sensible and eat your food.”

The middle-aged woman walked over and sized up the girl in front of her with her mean triangular eyes.

“She does look good. She will probably fetch a good price.”

“Eat your food.”

She placed the food on the floor and spat on it. Her tone was sharp and unkind. “This kind of vixen should be sold to a lowly place. Don’t blame us. It’s your bad luck.”

Lu Xiaocha looked at the two of them and suddenly laughed.

‘Have either of you thought of a question?’

The girl’s soft voice sounded in the cellar. There was no fear or horror in it. Instead, there was a little smile.

That made the woman and the man frown, their hearts pounding.

“What?” the woman asked automatically.

Lu Xiaocha said, “Maybe it’s your bad luck today.”

“What nonsense are you spouting, you little b*tch!”

The middle-aged woman’s voice was sharp as she raised her hand to hit her.

Lu Xiaocha easily grabbed her hand and smashed her to the ground with his other hand around her neck.

The intense feeling of suffocation and extreme pain stimulated the middle-aged woman’s nerves. She struggled with all her might, her eyes bulging and her face turning purple. She made a wordless gurgling sound.
