Chapter 161 Saving One Person
Chapter 161 Saving One Person
Logically, after reaching this point, Bai Hua should have seized the opportunity to escape.
But she couldn't resist and turned around to smash the man's third leg with the ironwood stick. The man woke up in excruciating pain and tried to cover his genitals with his hands, but they were tied up. He opened his eyes wide and looked at Bai Hua angrily, as if he wanted to devour her.
Without saying a word, Bai Hua smashed the man again, and this time the man fainted from the pain, still twitching in his unconscious state.
"Sister, she's ruthless!" Everyone swallowed hard.
"Well done!" Bai Hua smiled happily as she heard everyone praising her.
Then she ignored the unconscious man, gathered her things, put on an invisibility cloak, and sprayed some magic potion on herself.
Outside, it was pitch black. She carefully left the man's house, sprinkling medicine into every well she saw along the way, whether it was muscle relaxant or itching powder.
She was about to reach the edge of the mountain, with only one house left in front of her, and of course she couldn't give up.
She carefully stepped over the fence and came to the well. The big black dog sleeping in the yard seemed to sense something, but after twitching its nose a couple of times and not noticing anything unusual, it went back to sleep.
"Oh my god, I'm even more nervous than Bai Hua!" When Princess Mingyue saw the big black dog move, she immediately held her breath and didn't dare to make a sound. It took her a while to realize that she wasn't there.
"Me too! Hua Hua, you have to be careful!" Bai Hua nodded, and as she was about to leave after quickly administering the medicine, she suddenly noticed an iron chain in the pigsty.
Faced with the choice between hurrying up the mountain or going to take a look, Bai Hua chose the latter.
She quietly approached and was shocked to find another woman chained to the iron chain, a woman just like her, but in a worse state.
In the cold night, a woman, chained up, could only lie in a pigsty, her body covered in straw, curled up to sleep.
Bai Hua was furious. What did these people take women for? Pigs and dogs?
Perhaps she was too angry, because the woman actually woke up.
"Who?" She immediately curled up and tried to hide in the corner, but the length of the chains restricted her.
The chains were rattling loudly, but inside the house, not even the dog glanced in their direction; it seemed everyone took it for granted.
Bai Hua could imagine how many times this woman had cried out in despair, and how those people had acted as if nothing had happened.
"Shh, it's me. Don't be afraid, I'm here to take you away!" At that moment, Bai Hua made up his mind to take her away.
Because she clearly remembers how she felt at the moment of despair.
Bai Hua removed his invisibility cloak, revealing his figure.
"Take me away?" The woman was incredulous at first, but then she saw that Bai Hua was a woman. She didn't care about anything else and hurriedly told Bai Hua to run.
"Run! Run! Don't let them catch you!" The woman rushed over, grabbed her hand, and whispered her instructions, tears streaming down her face.
"Don't be afraid, I'll leave, we'll leave together!" Bai Hua held her hand with one hand and stroked her dry, messy hair with the other, finally wiping away her tears.
"I can't leave, you go! Don't worry about me, you have to get out of here!" The woman became more and more anxious as she spoke, afraid that the family would suddenly wake up, and kept urging Bai Hua on.
"I told you, we'll go together! Wait!" Bai Hua patted her head to reassure her, then tore the chains off with both hands.
"you?"
"Shh!" Bai Hua quickly covered the woman's surprised mouth. "Can you still walk? Let's go together!"
The woman nodded heavily. She wanted to leave; she wanted to get out of this awful place!
The woman stood up shakily, and Bai Hua saw that her leg was broken. She quickly went forward to help her.
"I can do it! I'm leaving! Even if I have to crawl, I'll get out of this hellhole!"
Bai Hua didn't say anything, but sprinkled some magic potion on the other person, then helped her up, and the two slowly walked towards the mountain.
Princess Mingyue and the others initially disapproved of Bai Hua going to rescue the woman again, but seeing the woman's determination to leave, they felt that Bai Hua had done the right thing.
The two supported each other and walked for a long time until they reached the foot of the mountain.
Looking at the pitch-black mountains before her, the woman felt a pang of fear. "Can we really escape? Why don't you put me down and run away yourself?"
"Don't worry, I'm here!" Bai Hua comforted her, assuring her that she wouldn't abandon the other person.
Bai Hua took out a three-wheeled RV, pressed a button, and the vehicle instantly enlarged, leaving his female companion speechless with astonishment.
"You, you're not some kind of deity, are you?"
"No," Bai Hua chuckled, a rare occurrence for him. "It's just that we have divine intervention! So we're sure to escape!"
The woman was no longer afraid and was filled with curiosity. Bai Hua quickly led her into the car and began to follow Xiao Peng's instructions.
Just as Peng Shanshan said, the car had eight legs extending from its bottom and started walking on its own, even knowing to avoid trees.
With a safe place to live, the woman could no longer hold back and began to cry.
Bai Hua said nothing, but silently hugged her and let her cry.
After venting, the other person calmed down.
"I'm sorry, I was just so scared! I thought I was going to be here for the rest of my life!"
Through her explanation, Bai Hua learned that her name was Wu Qingqiu, that she was a college student, and that she had arrived here a month earlier than him.
One day, on her way back to school, she met a pregnant woman with a big belly. The woman said she was visiting relatives in a certain place, but she couldn't find it no matter how many times she looked around. So she asked her if she knew the place.
Qingqiu, being kind-hearted, thought the other person was pregnant and agreed to take her to her relative's place. However, when they walked to a secluded place, a man suddenly jumped out. She tried to run away, but the pregnant woman held her tightly, and she was drugged and knocked unconscious.
When she woke up again, she had already been trafficked to this village and was to be the wife of the family's mentally challenged son, which she naturally did not want to do.
So for a month, she resisted and cried for help countless times, but received no response. She even had her leg broken.
If Bai Hua hadn't saved her today, she would have been killed.
The last time she cried for help, she was knocked unconscious. She overheard the old woman and the old man discussing how their mentally challenged son was useless and that the old man was going to take matters into his own hands. As long as the offspring were of their family bloodline, that was enough.
Wu Qingqiu was in utter despair at the time; if that day ever came, she would rather die by hitting her head against a wall.
Bai Hua patted her back, "Alright, alright, we've escaped. But do you think there will still be women like you in the village?"
Although Wu Qingqiu arrived early, she had been locked up and had never been out, so she didn't know the specifics of the situation, but she was certain that something was wrong.
