Chapter 226 Mute
"Who goes there?" Just as they reached the village entrance, they were stopped by two people who came out of the village.
Yunyi glanced at the two people, both of whom were dressed in a faint white.
The white aura—that's a menacing light! It means these two have taken too many lives on their shoulders.
This further proves that there is something strange about this village.
"I'm asking you a question, why aren't you answering?" One of the men leered at Yunyi. Although the woman's face was a bit ugly, her figure looked pretty good. Anyway, once the lights were turned off, he could have some fun with her.
"Ugh..." Yunyi felt a little nauseous looking at the two of them, so she started gesturing, "Ah ah..."
"So he's mute, huh? Haha." The two men exchanged a glance and then laughed.
Yunyi made a drinking motion, and then began to bow.
"Want some water?"
Yunyi nodded, then continued to express her gratitude.
"Alright, stop gesturing." A man waved his hand impatiently. "If you want water, come with us."
Yunyi hurriedly followed them into the village with a fawning smile.
"Go and fetch Mr. Yue," the slightly taller man instructed the shorter man.
The short man nodded, turned and ran away.
The tall man led Yunyi into the village, but they hadn't gone far when he pushed open a courtyard gate: "Woman, bring me a bowl of water."
Soon, a woman came out of the side room and carefully carried a bowl of water over. However, when she got close to the man, her body visibly trembled.
The man gestured.
The woman handed the water to Yunyi, glanced at her quickly, and then hurriedly lowered her head and took two steps back.
Yunyi took the bowl of water. She knew it had been spiked without even drinking it. She couldn't help but sigh. Ancient medicinal herbs were so precious, how could they be adulterated everywhere? What a waste! She then drank it all in one gulp.
Of course, she didn't drink it. Instead, she tilted her head back and collected it all into the water basin in her space. Then she mixed some spiritual spring water and drank it.
The man saw that Yunyi had finished drinking, a slight smile appeared on his lips, and he waved to the woman.
The woman took the bowl, turned around, and went back to her room.
Yunyi nodded to the man in thanks, then turned to leave.
The man didn't stop her; instead, a smile crept onto his lips as he slowly followed behind Yunyi.
The woman peeked out from the side room, looking at Yunyi's back with a resolute look in her eyes. If she didn't succeed this time, she wouldn't survive. She hoped... she hoped that God would have mercy on her.
Yunyi slowly walked out, but once she was out of the courtyard, she found that the path she had taken was not the entrance to the village. She had to find a new way, but the more she walked, the more confused she became. In the end, she not only failed to leave the village, but ended up in the middle of the village instead.
Just when she was at a loss, she encountered a man in blue robes and hurriedly went over to pay her respects.
The man in blue was the same Mr. Yue whom the man had summoned earlier. He looked at Yun Yi, raised his hand and gently waved it, releasing a faint scent of bamboo.
Yunyi instantly understood. The medicine in the water would cause someone to fall into a coma after half an hour, but if they encountered bamboo incense before falling into a coma, it would transform into another kind of medicine that could cause them to lose their minds, in other words, they could be hypnotized.
"Who are you?" Mr. Yue put his hands behind his back and spoke in a very ethereal voice, as if it came from ancient times.
Yunyi couldn't help but sneer inwardly. All this mystical stuff, does she really think she's some ancient immortal? But she wasn't about to expose her. Instead, her eyes widened, and she started gesturing with her hands.
Clearly, this Mr. Yue could speak sign language, so he frowned slightly and then began to use sign language as well.
Mr. Yue: What's your name?
Yunyi: Ni Yang'er (your mother).
Mr. Moon: Where do you come from?
Yunyi: Longdong Prefecture
Mr. Yue: What are you doing here?
Yunyi: I'm looking for my son. He's gone missing. Have you seen my nephew? He's so tall, seven years old... He disappeared when I took him out to buy sugar figurines.
Mr. Yue's lips curled slightly: I've met you before, come with me.
Yunyi: Thank you, my benefactor.
Mr. Yue: How old are you this year? What's your birthday?
Yunyi simply made up a completely unlucky birthday for them.
Mr. Yue's eyes lit up instantly.
……
Mr. Yue nodded to the person standing not far away, and then led Yunyi into a black two-story building. This building should be one of the fish eyes in the Bagua Fish of this village.
Mr. Yue led Yunyi into a room on the second floor.
As soon as Yunyi entered the room, her eyes rolled back and she fainted.
Mr. Yue looked at the woman in green lying on the ground, gestured to the old woman beside him to carry her to the bed, and then turned and went to the courtyard, where several people were already standing.
"Mr. Yue, this person..."
“She’s still a novice.” Mr. Yue smiled. “Moreover, she has an excellent appearance. If we use her as a medicinal ingredient, the effect should be even better.”
"It's a pity that three children are missing." A person dressed in a black robe spoke. Although his face looked unpleasant, his voice was very melodious, clearly indicating that he was disguised.
Yunyi was pretending to faint, so she could hear clearly from inside the house. Therefore, she immediately recognized that the voice belonged to Qing Xuanzi. She was indeed not dead and was hiding here.
“Three won’t hurt,” Mr. Yue chuckled. “With this woman of pure Yin as the medicinal ingredient, Qingxuan, trust me, the effect will definitely be even better.”
Yunyi squeezed her hand, and sure enough, all the children had been used as medicine.
“Yuehua, of course I believe you.” Qingxuan reached out and grasped Mr. Yue’s hand.
Yuehua smiled and pulled him into her arms: "Then you'll be busy after tonight, won't you...?"
"As you wish." Qingxuan nestled into the man's arms.
Upon seeing this, the others all voluntarily avoided the area.
Yuehua carried Qingxuan directly into the small building, but instead of going upstairs, she went to the basement, where the floor was covered with datura flowers. Amidst the rich fragrance of the flowers, the two of them quickly became excited and then unconsciously started making love.
The few people waiting outside couldn't help but feel envious.
"I hope that one day the fairy will allow us to try it out inside."
"Yes, it's said that you can really achieve ultimate pleasure in that room."
"Hey, I can't hold back anymore. You guys keep watching, I need to go back and relieve myself first?"
"Go away, you're so pathetic."
……
Yunyi, who was on the second floor, was standing by the window. However, in order not to be seen by people outside, she leaned against the corner of the wall. Naturally, she could hear everyone's conversation clearly. She couldn't help but think of the note that the woman had given her. She could confirm that all the women in this village had been trafficked.
