Dressed as an old woman, I carry the system and my son to escape the famine

"Wait a moment."

Li Chen looked at her cautiously and stopped her next move.

After all, her behavior was too suspicious, and she just opened the door like this.

If there was an ambush inside, all three of them would not be able to escape.

The woman understood what he was thinking and couldn't help but smile softly: "Don't worry, I won't harm you. I hope that man dies immediately. The sooner he dies, the better."

Her expression was calm, but when she said these words in sign language, Li Chen was frightened.

Several people looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.

They didn't expect that others would hate Wang Cheng so much, but thinking about what happened just now, they also felt that Wang Cheng was indeed extremely hateful.

"There is no one guarding it because Wang Cheng is worried that his affairs will be exposed. In addition to keeping the sacrifices here, he will also kidnap many boys and girls. Looking at their frightened faces, Wang Cheng will Very excited.”

According to the woman's description, several people learned that Wang Cheng used the excuse of offering sacrifices to plunder many boys, girls and girls from the people every year.

He would trap these people in this courtyard for torture, and finally select the most beautiful one and push him out to sacrifice.

As for the others, they claimed externally that they had not withstood the test of the river god.

"I didn't expect that she would do such a vicious thing." Yao Shu clenched her fists subconsciously, wishing to cut Wang Cheng into pieces right now.

"I didn't expect that he would dare to do so many things. After all, the people believe in the River God very much, and he rules the city, so they have no doubts about him." The woman added.

When she entered again, Yao Shu found that this place was indeed magnificent.

Under the leadership of the woman, they successfully found the cell where the princess and Shen Fugui were held.

When the princess and Shen Fugui saw Yao Shu appearing here, they were immediately overjoyed.

"Mrs. Shen!"

"mother!"

The two people were imprisoned in different cells, but Yao Shu could be seen in both.

"How are you two feeling?"

"It's okay so far, but I think I heard they said they would take us both to sacrifice. Is it true?" When the princess saw Yao Shu, she felt like she had seen a savior.

When she finished saying this, a trace of melancholy flashed across Yao Shu's face.

She didn't know whether to tell the princess about this, fearing that the princess would not be able to cover it up and be exposed in front of Wang Cheng.

But she felt it would be unfair if she didn't tell the princess about it.

After all, this matter involves the safety of the princess. If even such a thing is concealed from her, the princess will definitely feel dissatisfied with him in the future.

"Mrs. Shen, no matter what happens, just tell me directly and I can accept it." The princess saw that Mrs. Shen was so worried, so she spoke in a low voice.

Yao Shu told the princess roughly what she had learned. She thought the princess would show a panicked expression, but unexpectedly she nodded calmly.

"Did you know about this a long time ago?" Yao Shu asked strangely.

"I heard it from other people here before. I was shocked at first, but then I figured it out. The reason why Wang Cheng is eyeing Fugui and me is probably because we don't look like people from this place. And when we go out to play together, there is no one to protect us."

"Yes, and listening to his words, he seems to know that we are the Shen family." Shen Fugui then added.

"It means that he has been targeting you from the beginning, and has been observing you during this period. He only started to attack after confirming that you are indeed not locals." Li Chen added.

Shen Fugui was a little surprised when he saw Li Chen appearing here: "Why is Young Master Li here too?"

The princess was even more repelled when she saw him: "What are you doing here? You don't want to take me away, do you?"

"Princess has misunderstood. Princess and Sir, please rest assured. I am not here to take the princess away from here. I want to join your caravan and go to the Western Region together." Li Chen said with a respectful salute.

This statement made the princess and Shen Fugui present a little surprised. They subconsciously said, "You want to go to the Western Regions too?"

The two people almost spoke in unison. After saying this, they looked at each other.

Li Chen scratched his head in embarrassment: "I do love the princess during the summer vacation, but I also respect any choice the princess makes, and I will never disturb the princess's relationship with the adults on the road."

His assurance made the princess and Shen Fugui blush.

The two of them subconsciously avoided looking.

The princess spoke in a low voice: "Actually, the two of us are just a little worried about you, and we don't mean to reject you. When I got along with you before, I knew that you are not as unreasonable as your family."

"Thank you princess for your appreciation."

The two of them looked at each other and spoke tacitly.

Next it’s time to get down to business.

Yao Shu lowered her eyes slightly and said, "We plan to rescue you tomorrow, so you need to continue to pretend in prison for one day. Just pretend that you have never seen us, and be sure not to reveal any clues."

She warned her repeatedly, but she still didn't trust the two people in front of her.

In her eyes, the two people in front of her were just children. Seeing her child in danger, a mother is naturally extremely anxious.

"We understand that we also know the general situation here these days, but there has never been anything wrong. However, these other people detained with us were all taken away yesterday. We did not know that they were taken away Where to go, but I heard that Wang Cheng is going to execute them all." The princess looked at Li Chen worriedly.

She knew that Li Chen was a court official and a military general, so she would definitely take this matter seriously.

Now, Shen Fugui is in prison, and only Li Chen still has some prestige.

If he can come forward to solve this matter, the next step will be easier.

"Don't worry, I will naturally pay attention to this matter." Li Chen promised softly.

Then everyone began to discuss plans for tomorrow. Just after they had said a few words, the woman who had been watching the door suddenly rushed over in panic.

She gestured anxiously with her hands: "Someone is coming outside."

Thinking about it, maybe Wang Cheng realized that he was not in the inn, so he wanted to go home and take a look at the situation.

It may also be a daily routine inspection to ensure that there are no accidents or hidden dangers.

"Hide now!"
