I looked around with my feet, but there was no place where I could bear any force.
There are no ladders or steps.
But think about it, if these things are provided, then the people locked down below will simply escape.
"Looks like I have to jump down..."
Xiaolan swung the light towards the hole, checked the height, and felt that her behavior was not particularly desperate, so she held up her hands and jumped into the hole.
The hole is very straight, and the landing is quite stable. The space in the hole is not small, but the passage is very narrow, and it is difficult to accommodate two people. After Xiaolan stood firm, she quickly raised her phone and looked around.
Except for a worn quilt, there was nothing in the cave. It seemed that it was cleaned regularly. The cave was not dirty, and there was no peculiar smell. Of course, at a cursory glance, there were no clues.
Just as he was about to roll up his sleeves and take a closer look, there was a sudden metal collision at the entrance of the cave.
"Click, click... squeak - bang..."
Xiaolan turned around, and a beam of light shot down from the entrance of the cave. Different from the light of the flashlight, this light was soft and dim, as if it was just ordinary skylight shining down the passage.
It was as if someone had opened the door to the cave entrance, but when I first entered the cave, there was no door at the entrance.
More importantly, is there anyone else here?
"Sister Huacong, are you there?"
A soft and slender voice sounded from the entrance of the cave. It was not the delicate voice of Huazong, but another girl.
This voice seemed to trigger Xiaolan's memory. She felt strange and familiar at the same time.
This sound...have you heard it somewhere...
"Sister Hua Cong, I'm Miaomiao, I'm here to see you."
It’s Miaomiao!
The memory of this voice suddenly came back to Xiaolan's mind.
"Uncle! Save me!"
"Dad, I don't..."
"No!……"
Xiaolan sniffed and looked up at the entrance of the cave.
It's Miaomiao in the dream.
A petite girl leaned over the entrance of the cave. Against the light, Xiaolan couldn't see her face clearly, but she felt that she obviously relaxed after seeing him.
"Sister Hua Cong, dad said...he said he was going to send you up the mountain tonight..."
Miaomiao's tone became lowered. Xiaolan looked up and watched the little girl retract her upper body. The entrance to the cave became empty again, but Miaomiao's voice still came.
"When the time comes, just slip away from the ancestral hall as I told you and wait for me in the cave. I will find you when I come down from the mountain and take you away..."
Xiaolan's heart twitched suddenly.
Is Miao Miao helping Hua Cong escape?
"Don't worry, Sister Hua Cong, I have saved many people like this. After Sister Hua Cong runs away, you must never come back again..."
Xiaolan opened her mouth, not knowing what to say.
The flowers could have run away.
But they didn't expect that the flower bush would be taken away by the man and locked at home.
"Have you been helping others like this, Miaomiao?"
Xiaolan didn't want to speak, but the voice came out of her throat. This was not her own voice, but the voice of Hua Cong.
"We... have no choice. Dad needs money, we need money... But we all understand that this is wrong... So I thought, try our best to make up for it, how can we get the money and alleviate our sins...
...But even so, there are still many children..."
"That's not your fault, Miaomiao," said "Self", "it's the people on the mountain who should pay the price. They are committing crimes and there are many ways to make money. You really shouldn't..."
"Sister Huacong, we all understand," Miaomiao gently interrupted "herself", "but Lianshui Village cannot be cut off, and we don't know why, Lianshui Village seems to be able to... As the book says, it is a land of nurturing
The soil of sin, where there is no external interference, and other people can't affect it for long, it will still change back to its original appearance. The people in Lianshui Village, from adults to children, seem... they all seem to have a criminal nature.
I want to save the abducted children and the children in the village, but... it's too difficult..."
Soil of sin?
Xiaolan pondered. Indeed, A Liang described crime and death in an understatement, and Sister Sun remained calm even after her lover died tragically in front of her. The attitude of the people in the village towards crime was indeed unusual.
Miaomiao hopes to use her kindness and love to eradicate the criminal genes in the children of Lianshui Village.
But it can't fundamentally change all this.
"No one is born bad. As long as we cut off the existing criminal behavior and let the children receive the right education, everything can be changed. Miaomiao, I will also help you and the children in Lianshui Village."
"Sister Hua Cong, you don't understand, you don't understand..."
Miaomiao's voice gradually disappeared, and Xiaolan still looked up at the entrance of the cave. A black shadow suddenly enveloped it, as if the door had finally been closed, but there was no sound of closing the door.
"Miao Miao?" This time it was Xiaolan's own voice.
Falling into darkness again, Xiaolan quickly took out her cell phone to see what was going on. Only when she took a look did she realize that the scenery around her had changed again.
Everything was pitch black, but you could vaguely see that it was a very spacious space. Xiaolan turned over and found that the mobile phone she was holding tightly just now was gone. Xiaolan was so shocked that she quickly sat up and tried to find it.
However, his head accidentally hit a hard object.
"clang!……"
There was a muffled sound, and Xiaolan covered the hit head with one hand and touched the object with the other.
The metal strips feel like steel bars, and there are other parallel and vertical steel bars arranged next to them, just like...
While he was groping, the light on the side came on.
"squeak--"
It turned out that there was a door not far away. The door was pushed open and several people rushed in with cheers.
With this light, Xiaolan finally saw that she was now locked in a strong iron cage, and the hands holding the iron cage did not look like her own. Xiaolan understood that she was in the body of Hua Cong again.
inside.
"Little girl, you are so lucky!..." A fat woman smiled brightly and squeezed next to Xiaolan, "There is a young man in the village who has taken a liking to you. You don't have to be sold to that poor place. You care about your life."
How great, hahahaha..."
Before Xiaolan could react, her body rushed out, grabbing the cage with both hands and shaking it vigorously.
"What are you talking about...let me out! You are committing a crime! Let me out!"
The little Miaomiao stood behind the people, looking at the flowers through the gaps in the crowd, her big round eyes filled with tears.
"I don't want to stay here, don't mean..."
The words stopped abruptly when I saw the seedlings and flowers in the distance.
No matter what, Miaomiao cannot be betrayed.
"I'll send you to the door this afternoon, little girl, don't be impatient," the woman's smile looked extremely ferocious, "From now on, I'll just stay in our Lianshui Village and I'll guarantee you a good life!"
People laughed and laughed very happily.
Miaomiao shook her head in pain and covered her face.
Xiaolan felt that her heart was falling, maybe it was Huacong's heart, maybe it was her own.
His vision went dark and he lost consciousness. This chapter has been completed!
