Chapter 43

  Cheng Zihan's mind was a bit blank, and what had just happened in that instant was too fast, so fast that people couldn't react.

  She could only vaguely sense that she was currently in the car, which was bumpy enough to make her stomach turn over and feel nauseous.

  It wasn't until she gradually came back to her senses that she finally realized a fact.

  She was abducted and sold.

  This era is quite unstable, and there are many human traffickers. When they see a child who is alone, they will easily abduct them. Most boys are sold to families as sons, while most girls are sold to the mountains to be married off.

  A faint sound was heard coming from the front seat.

  "This time I'm really unlucky, I only met a kid, and it's a girl. Ah, have you heard recently that someone wants to buy a daughter-in-law?" It was a woman's voice.

  "No, these days are not very peaceful either. Now everyone is more cautious when doing business. Let's take her to the deep mountains and see if anyone wants to buy a wife there. However, I'm afraid the price won't be high, probably only around 300-500 yuan." It was a man's voice.

  "What bad luck, why is it always a money-losing deal? If only it were a boy, the wealthy Wang from town has been looking to buy a son recently and he's offering a good price." The woman cursed again in frustration.

  The two people in front were chatting intermittently, completely unaware that Cheng Zihuan behind them had already woken up.

  Cheng Zihan rolled her eyes, wasn't she already unlucky enough? She was walking on the road just fine and still got kidnapped, what else could be considered unlucky?

  But where are they going to take themselves?

  Looking out of the car window, everything around is pitch black, and no scenery can be seen at all.

  The faint light of the Mini Cooper van illuminated the road ahead, but all that could be seen was the bumpy and uneven road, and nothing else beyond that.

  I don't know where this place is either, and Cheng Zihan has never been out of town before, so it's natural that she wouldn't recognize it.

  What should I do now? How can I escape?

  Cheng Zihan continued to lie on the back seat, pretending to still be unconscious.

  After a while, the woman in front turned her head to look at Cheng Zihuan, and seeing that she was still unconscious, she continued to chat with the man in front of her with peace of mind.

  She was confident in the medicine she had taken herself. An elephant could be put to sleep for a day and a half with it, let alone a little girl?

  Cheng Zihan lay silently on the back seat, with thoughts flashing rapidly in her mind.

  The car is still moving now, if it's a reckless jump, I'm afraid I'll get hurt and may not be able to escape.

  But if they don't run, I won't know where they'll take me either. If it's deep in the mountains, that would be a problem too.

  Cheng Zihan couldn't help but sigh, what's going on? How did she end up running into him?

  Just as he was lamenting, a cool and eerie voice suddenly came over, "Cheng Zihuan, I really don't want to despise you. You say, every time you go out, you never encounter good things."

  Cheng Zihan was overjoyed when she heard this familiar voice and indeed saw Qin Kexiu's much more solid figure appear before her eyes.

  "Qin Kexiu, you're out." Seeing Qin Kexiu, Cheng Zihan felt an inexplicable sense of calm in her heart, and the previous feeling of panic had also disappeared.

  He seems to be able to make people feel at ease.

  "You're not coming out, are you an idiot going to be sold to the mountains as a wife?" Qin Kesou glanced at Cheng Zihuan, who had gained some weight after not seeing him for a while and was no longer as thin as before. He also looked much whiter and more beautiful than before.

  No wonder human traffickers stretched out their evil claws towards her, at this age she has already grown up quite well, and in the future when she grows up, she will definitely be a beautiful young woman.

  "I just let my guard down for a moment." Cheng Zihan said with her head lowered and nodded slightly.

  She was walking steadily on the road when someone suddenly covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and then she knew nothing. When she woke up, she was already in the car.

  It's not her fault for being too careless, how would she know that those people on the street are so arrogant?

  "Be quiet, lie still, I'll save you." Qin Ke Xiu didn't rush to blame Cheng Zi Han either. The further they walked, the more uneasy he felt in his heart. Absolutely cannot let them continue forward anymore.

  Tong Zihan nodded, and Qin Kexiu disappeared.

  In a moment, the woman in front shouted loudly, "Stop the car! Stop the car quickly!"

  The car shook violently for a few times and finally came to a stop with a screeching sound, while the man in front also heavily bumped his forehead against the windshield, seeing stars spinning around his head for a while before he came back to himself.

  The woman was panting heavily, her eyes wide with fear, staring straight ahead, "You, did you just see something?"

  The man cursed under his breath, and all around was pitch black. The sound of the wind howling could be heard. Just now when the car was driving, it seemed that there was no wind at all. This place is really eerie.

  "Are you kidding me? Hurry up and let's go, this place isn't very peaceful, we can't stay here for too long at night." The man wasn't a coward either, thinking about all the evil things he had done in his life, if he was really afraid, he would have been scared to death a long time ago.

  He has killed so many people with his own hands that he can't even remember how many.

  "No, not at all." The woman was still in a state of shock, vigilantly looking around her surroundings, and after a while, she turned back to look at Cheng Zihang again, seeing that she was still sleeping, seemingly without any unusual conditions, before finally letting out a sigh of relief.

  She had just finished, and looking ahead, she let out a sharp cry again.

  "Ah——"

  On the windshield of the car, a person was clearly lying there, with blood flowing from all seven orifices, hair disheveled, eyes wide open and staring at her with extreme ferocity.

  The woman was suddenly frightened out of her wits, screaming non-stop with her mouth open, pointing at the windshield.

  The man was annoyed by her call and looked up, but this look also scared him stiff.

  At this time, Cheng Zihan had secretly opened the car door and escaped, running towards the back in a flash.

  But there was no moonlight that night either, and it was pitch black all around her. She ran with one foot deep and the other shallow, not knowing where she was going.

  It wasn't until quite a while later that Qin Kexiu returned, his face expressionless.

  Cheng Zihan looked at him and asked, "Solved?"

  "They're dead." Qin Ke Xiu's tone was very calm, as if the two people he mentioned were just two ants.

  Cheng Zihan's heart skipped a beat when she heard Qin Kexiu's words, and she subconsciously glanced at him. Although it was dark and she couldn't see his expression clearly, her heart felt inexplicably melancholic.

  "Qin Kexiu, although they are very hateful, the crime is not punishable by death." Cheng Zihan thought it was Qin Kexiu who killed them, and she didn't want Qin Kexiu to become like this.

  "I didn't kill them, they did too many wrong things themselves and scared themselves to death." Qin Kesu gave Cheng Zihan a white eye and said lightly.

  Cheng Zihan was just about to speak when she suddenly felt a void beneath her feet and her entire body plummeted downwards.

  She didn't even have time to let out a scream.

  It's over, she thought, this time I'm probably going to die again, but I don't know if I'll have that good luck to live once more.
