Chapter 398 A Straightforward Girl Named Xiu (1/2)
“These bastards with full iniquities! They actually do something outrageous like human trafficking!”
Just after recovering from leg numbness, Xiu ran to the side of a coffin, leaned against it, looked inside it and then turned to another coffin.
In the end, she shook her head in disappointment, and then continued explaining to Lin Mengya and Qiu Yu.
“To be honest, I’m from Lieyun Empire. My uncle is a trader selling drugs. I came out with my uncle. A few days ago, we passed by a village where I met a blind old lady. Hearing that our caravan came from outside, so she asked us to deliver some clothes to her son. She said that her son has also joined a caravan in order to make a living. Later, I asked the blind old lady which caravan his son has joined. However, she said that she didn’t know but just heard that her son could get two taels of silver every month. On hearing that, I felt something was wrong. Later, based on the words of the villagers, I speculated that those recruiters were White Tiger and Black Dragon. I went to inquire about the old lady’s son out of a good heart. Unexpectedly, the man took liberties with me, so I fought with him in anger. Afterwards, I’m here.”
Xiu told them the whole story. Lin Mengya and Qiu Yu finally understood what had happened.
However, after examining the coffins one by one with remorse, Xiu finally leaned against a coffin and sighed lightly.
“Alas, he’s not here. The old lady said that there’s a large black mole on her son’s face. What should I do? The old lady must be very sad after knowing this.”
Xiu’s face suddenly darkened, full of disappointment.
She must have promised the old lady that she would give the clothes to her son.
Compared with her arrogant uncle, Xiu, this simple girl, was really clear and pure.
“I think they are definitely going to get them out in batches. According to your statement, they should not have been sent out of the country.”
Lin Mengya involuntarily said something to console Xiu. She was so kind and innocent that Lin Mengya couldn’t help doing that.
After glancing at the person in the coffin, Xiu suddenly rushed over, took Lin Mengya ‘s hand, and said pleadingly.
“Little brother, thank you for saving me. But if I leave with you today, they will find something wrong. I want to ask you a favor. I must find the old lady’s son, so I’ll lie back there later. Can you drug me?”
Lin Mengya really didn’t expect that this lovely Xiu would ask her for such a favor.
Moreover, she came here with the intention of detecting the location, where the people kidnapped were hidden, and then causing the conflict between the two parties.
Now Xiu actually had such a request, which really baffled her.
“Listen to me, I understand what you are thinking. Nevertheless, your uncle is really worried about you and going to fight with White Dragon and Black Tiger because of you. Moreover, we don’t know where they are going. If something terrible happens to you, I will feel guilty.”
Lin Mengya tried to persuade Xiu to leave, but unexpectedly the little girl insisted.
The stubbornness between her eyebrows made Lin Mengya feel helpless.
“I know, but the old lady is blind and now I don’t know whether her son is dead or alive. If the old lady learns the truth, she will definitely collapse. Since I’ve promised the old lady, I must do it. Rest assured. I will not put myself in danger. Everyone in our Lieyun Empire is born to be an expert in poison. They thought that they could prevent me from using poison by taking my treasure bag away? Humph, they are wrong. By the way, take this.”
As Xiu said, she took a small cloth bag from her waist and put it in Lin Mengya’s palm.
“This is…”
“This is the hundred fragrance rat I have kept since I was a child. Look, in such a solid coffin, it can still find a way out and find itself some food. Moreover, it is particularly intelligent. No matter where I am, it can find me. Little brother, now that you know where my uncle is, give it to him. In this way, he will know that I am here, and I will convince him then.”
A small head popped out of the cloth bag.
Its small eyes were like black beans, alertly looking around.
It looked just like that kind of hamster that Lin Mengya had seen in modern times.
However, the little rat was not afraid at all, but grabbed Lin Mengya’s thumb and bit it softly with its front teeth.
“Look, it likes you very much. Go back quickly. Leave other things to me.”
Xiu was so persistent that Lin Mengya and Qiu Yu couldn’t say no to her.
In addition, for fear that Lin Mengya and Qiu Yu could not explain it, she took out the hundred fragrance rat that they could take back for proof of their words.
Such a bighearted and careful girl was extremely rare.
If Dongfang Xu really doted on this niece, perhaps he was not the arrogant person regardless of others’ lives as she imagined.
“Little brothers, please don’t let others find out what has happened here, okay?”
While talking, Xiu has already lain in the coffin.
Lin Mengya looked at Xiu’s dark eyes speechlessly, wondering she should consider this girl bold or silly.
Perhaps no normal person would lie in the coffin voluntarily.
“Okay, I can help you. Nevertheless, you may feel a little pain later., because they had sealed the acupuncture points of your limbs with steel needles. Remember, I’ll adjust them a little outwards for you. So you will fall into the state of normal sleep. As long as someone shakes you vigorously or calls your name, you will wake up. Except for doctors, no one can find it. Moreover, because of the silver needles, you can only talk, but can’t move. Do you understand?”
