The vicious female supporting role is ruthless and arrogant

Chapter 179 Just out of the wolf's den and into the tiger's den again

Zuo Zixuan took Teng Haichuan into the courtyard and knocked on the door.

After knocking for several minutes, the light in the house came on and the person inside asked nervously, "Who is it?"

"Hello, sister. We are lost in the mountains. Can we stay here for one night?"

There was no sound from inside, and Zuo Zixuan continued, "We're not staying here for free. I'll pay you for the accommodation, and we'll leave at dawn tomorrow morning."

After a few minutes, the door creaked open from the inside, and a middle-aged woman in her forties, holding a kerosene lamp in her hand, stood by the door and looked Zuo Zixuan up and down.

The middle-aged woman frowned and asked, "How did you get lost in this mountain?"

"Today the weather is good, I am thinking of taking my nephew to the mountains for an outing and to see the green hills and clear waters.

We were walking and playing along the way, and before we knew it, we had walked far away. When we came to our senses, we couldn't find the way back.

I wandered around and ended up here.

It was too dark and we couldn't find the direction to go out, and we were worried about encountering wild animals in the mountains.

I hope to stay here for one night, and we will leave at dawn tomorrow."

After saying that, he took out five dollars and stuffed it into the middle-aged woman's hand.

The middle-aged woman looked at the five one-yuan bills in her hand, thought for a moment, put the money in her trouser pocket, and turned sideways.

"come in."

Zuo Zixuan led Teng Haichuan into the main room. The middle-aged woman closed the door and led them to the wing room on the left.

"You will stay in this room tonight. There are beddings in it. Although they are not very good, they can be used as a makeshift."

"Thank you, big sister..."

The middle-aged woman didn't say much. She put down the kerosene lamp in her hand and turned away.

Zuo Zixuan looked at the middle-aged woman's back as she left and shrugged.

This elder sister is quite aloof.

After the middle-aged woman left, she picked up the kerosene lamp and looked around.

The bumpy mud ground, the loess walls with cracks of varying sizes, and several large black beams supporting the roof.

There was a simple single bed in the corner, a low cabinet next to the bed, and a tattered round table in the middle of the room with two benches beside it.

The bed was covered with a sheet of unknown color, two deflated canvas pillows made of husks, and a quilt that was hard to tell was a blanket.

The whole house was filled with a strong musty smell.

Zuo Zixuan sighed, something is better than nothing, and it is better than being outside in the open air.

She took a clean sheet from the space and spread it on the bed, then turned off the kerosene lamp, leaned against the head of the bed, reached out to hold Teng Haichuan in her arms, and covered him with a small blanket.

Teng Haichuan witnessed Qin Qiu die in front of his own eyes, which caused serious trauma to his young mind.

No matter what time, he held Zuo Zixuan's hand tightly, fearing that he would be abandoned by Zuo Zixuan.

Zuo Zixuan knew the pain of seeing a loved one die in front of one's eyes, not to mention that Teng Haichuan was only a four-year-old child.

Although she did not persuade Teng Haichuan verbally, her actions still gave Teng Haichuan enough sense of security.

After a tiring day and a big fright, Teng Haichuan nestled in Zuo Zixuan's arms and quickly fell asleep.

Zuo Zixuan, who had been in a coma for an entire afternoon, couldn't fall asleep at this moment.

When it was late at night and everyone was asleep, she didn't think of her parents who were far away in the 22nd century, but the first person she thought of was He Yi.

I have been missing for more than ten hours, and I don’t know if he knows I am missing and will still look for me everywhere.

Tomorrow morning, should I go back to Zedu, or just take Teng Haichuan away?

Thinking of this, tears began to drip down the corners of my eyes unconsciously.

Looking through the small window on the mud wall, the sky outside had gradually turned into blue-green. It was estimated to be around five o'clock, almost dawn.

She also planned to take a nap with her eyes closed and leave when it was dawn.

In a daze, she heard a rustling sound outside the door.

At first she didn't pay attention to it, wondering if it was the big sister who opened the door who got up.

People in rural areas usually get up early, so there is nothing to be surprised about.

But after a while, a familiar smell drifted into the room and she woke up immediately.

He quickly took out two pills and put them in his mouth, then fed one to Teng Haichuan, and quickly put the sheets and blanket under him into the space.

She squinted her eyes and looked towards the door, still leaning against the head of the bed, holding Teng Haichuan motionlessly.

About ten minutes later, the door was pushed open from the outside with a creaky sound.

Even with her eyes closed, she could feel the room suddenly light up, and then two people's footsteps came into the room.

She held the bottle of powder in her hand, ready to sprinkle it at any time.

But before that, she wanted to see what these two people wanted to do.

"Boss, are these two people knocked unconscious?" The eldest sister Wu Xiaomei, who opened the door for Zuo Zixuan, turned to look at her man Li Tiangong and asked.

"Twice the dosage, do you feel dizzy?

This girl is really pretty. She is wearing all these high-end clothes that cost five dollars each. It seems that she is either rich or noble.

Maybe there’s still some money on him…”

As Li Tiangong spoke, he was about to touch Zuo Zixuan.

As soon as he stretched out his hand, he was slapped hard in the face.

"Li Tiangong, I'm not dead yet."

Li Tiangong covered his face with his hands, his teeth itching with anger. He raised his hand high, ready to slap back.

"You hit, you hit...

If you dare to touch a hair of mine today, I will make sure that thing of yours disappears and you can only be a woman from now on."

Wu Xiaomei was not afraid of Li Tiangong. Instead, she puffed out her chest and offered her face to him.

Li Tiangong put his hand down angrily. "Why are you being so unreasonable? I want to see if she has any money."

"Heh..., if anyone needs to find it, I'll be the one to do it, is there any need for you to do it?

Don't think I don't know what you're up to.

Put away your dirty thoughts. When the day breaks, I will drag the person to the west district of the city to sell him to an old scalper. Don’t let him go to waste and lower his price.”

"Okay, okay, you search, you search...

I don’t want to argue with you.”

When Zuo Zixuan heard the conversation between the two, she felt like crying.

How unlucky am I?

Just escaped from the wolf's den, and fell into the tiger's den again?

I actually encountered human traffickers in this deep mountain.

She felt that after she returned, she must find a temple to worship the Buddha and get rid of her bad luck.

However, these two people said they would drag them to the west district of the city and sell them to scalpers?

Isn’t this a blessing in disguise?

She was familiar with the west district of the city. There were several old herbal farmers there. She often went there quietly to collect herbs. She could find the way there with her eyes closed. In short, she was very familiar with the place.

It seems that I have to cooperate with them and let them drag me and Teng Haichuan to the west district of the city.

Only after entering the city could they find the way back.

Wu Xiaomei searched Zuo Zixuan's body thoroughly but found nothing and she was exhausted.

By this time it was already bright outside, and seeing that there was no time to delay any longer, I had to give up.

She asked Li Tiangong to harness the ox cart, carry the people onto the cart, cover them with straw, close the door, and walk out of the mountain.

Luo Huiru, who hadn't slept all night, was really restless.

The news of the kidnapping of Qin Qiu and her grandson and Zuo Zixuan had spread throughout the entire military district last night.

A large number of people from the military region and the Public Security Bureau, including Luo Rujun, were dispatched to participate in this operation.

Luo Rujun did not return home all night, and she didn't even have anyone to ask for information, so she didn't know what the situation was.

What kind of intelligence do the military region and the public security bureau have?

If they find Qin Qiu and her grandson, and the old woman accuses me of tricking them into the alley behind the vegetable market, wouldn't I be dead?

She went out to buy groceries that day and was kidnapped by Feng Yongjun.

He said that it was he who falsely reported Zuo Zixuan, causing him to lose his job, and that he wanted to cut off her hands and feet as compensation, which almost scared her to death.

Later, Feng Yongjun said that it was okay not to chop him off, saying that Zuo Zixuan had offended him and asked him to find a way to trick Zuo Zixuan out of the army's jurisdiction.

Isn’t the enemy of your enemy your friend?

She immediately agreed to Feng Yongjun's request.

But she knew that it was impossible for her to lure Zuo Zixuan out.

So, she came up with this idea: kidnap a child from the He family and lure Zuo Zixuan over.

She stayed near the He family for two days, but did not see the He family's nannies take the children out.

Yesterday, she saw Qin Qiu and her grandson going out. Although she was not sure whether Zuo Zixuan would show up for them, she still decided to give it a try.

What she was thinking at the time was that if Zuo Zixuan didn't go, the worst that could happen would be that Feng Yongjun and his men would kill her directly, and she would then find an opportunity to kidnap the other two children to lure Zuo Zixuan out.

What she didn't expect was that Zuo Zixuan actually went.

What she didn't expect was that the military district and the Public Security Bureau actually dispatched so many people to find Zuo Zixuan and the others.

She felt really uneasy, so when she saw it was getting light, she quickly went out with her basket.

Zuo Zixuan's life or death was uncertain, and He Yi couldn't rest at home, so he followed other soldiers and ambushed near the Luo family.

As soon as Luo Huiru went out, everyone split up into several groups and followed her quietly.

There was no car in the morning and no bicycle at home, so Luo Huiru almost jogged all the way to an old alley behind the department store.

She stood in front of the door, pulled the knocker and knocked three times, paused for a few seconds, and knocked again.

Three long and one short sounds were repeated several times before the door was slightly opened a crack.

The person who opened the door saw that it was Luo Huiru, and did not move aside to let her in. Instead, he walked out and turned around to close the door.

He Yi squinted his eyes and saw from a distance that the man had a large black mole on the back of his hand.

"Why are you here so early in the morning?

Didn’t I tell you not to come here without any urgent matter to report? "

The man scolded Luo Huiru with an unhappy look on his face.

"I want to know whether Zuo Zixuan and that grandmother and grandson are dead or not. Yesterday, the military district and the public security bureau dispatched a large number of people to Donghe Mountain to look for them.

If that grandmother and granddaughter were found, I would be dead.

If anything happens to me, the military intelligence you want will be wasted."

The man laughed out loud as if he had heard a huge joke.

"He Rengui, a brigade commander, has been undercover in the military region for decades, but he has not been able to touch China's high-level military secrets.

Just you?

A street rat?

Not to mention you, even your brother can't touch ordinary military secrets, let alone high-level military secrets?

However, you don't have to worry.

We had already transferred our people to Xituopo in Xicheng District. No matter how hard they searched in Donghe Mountain, they would not be able to find us.

Put your heart back in your stomach, go back and wait for instructions."
