The man in the next cell won't be able to stay here for long. He will soon be sold to a place where he works illegally. In that place, if you die, there won't even be a pit to bury you. They will just throw you directly into the mountains.

This dungeon is full of people who have been trafficked.

Looking at these two people, it felt like a stone was pressing on my chest, so heavy that I couldn't breathe. These people really deserved to die! !

Du Wen, the strong man, spoke in a much lower voice, fearing to scare these poor people: "They won't come out, no matter what they say, they won't come out."

Zhou Rongrong naturally understood that these people were all men, and most of the people who hurt and trafficked them were men. Seeing so many people, she felt scared instinctively and naturally did not dare to come out.

"You guys go out first, they are afraid of you."

Xie Wuyou patted Zhou Rongrong on the shoulder and took his people out.

Seeing that everyone had left, she squatted on the ground and began to quietly introduce her background, what she did, who those people were, and focused on who Xie Wuyou was.

"We have arrested all those who hurt you, and chopped off a few of them. Their heads fell off. What do you want to do with the rest? Oh, and the prefect who colluded with the bandits, the prince has sent people to capture him. Do you want to go with me to take a look?

If you girls don't want to go home, just come with me, and we'll create a better life together, okay? Don't worry, I, Zhou Rongrong, will keep my word and take good care of you."

Once these girls are rescued, they will be drowned out by those pedantic voices and fall from one hell into another.

Someone started sobbing quietly, and then more people started crying loudly. There was reluctance, despair and joy in their cries.

What is more is the fear of the unknown. They are all the same here. In order to survive, they are forced to live a life worse than pigs and dogs. But what about when they get out?

What will those people, including their families, think of them?

Zhou Rongrong seemed to understand them and said, "It's not you who are at fault, right? It's the people who hurt you who are at fault. What have you done wrong? There are many people who died and were carried out of this dungeon. It's great that you are still alive. What have you done wrong? You have survived here. How can those rumors outside hurt you? My workshop needs a lot of people. Are you willing to come?"

"But why? Why us?"

The man's voice was hoarse because he hadn't spoken for a long time. If Zhou Rongrong hadn't listened carefully, she wouldn't have been able to hear what he was saying.

Yes, why them? Why am I the unfortunate one? Have I done something extremely evil?

No one answered this question because they were all wondering, why them?

The oldest child screamed with all his might, as if accusing the world of injustice.

"Why, God of War? Why haven't you come for so long, God of War? Hahahaha. Ridiculous."

Zhou Rongrong didn't know what to say. Is it funny? It was really funny. It had been so long. In ten years, no one had come to this place. Even Yang Tian, ​​who thought it was pretty good, had never thought of coming to take down Zhaojia Village.

Is it funny? Yes, it is funny. Under the bright sky, darkness is hidden in the invisible underground. Only when someone accidentally uncovers it can we see the tip of the iceberg.

Countless lives suffer day after day in such darkness. From the beginning, they are full of expectations and pray for God to intervene, but now no one calls for help.

It all seemed so ridiculous.

Zhou Rongrong didn’t know how to answer this question for these children. Even if the emperor came, he couldn’t answer this question. The only thing he could do was to ensure their future life.

I wonder how many families have been broken up because of these twenty or so children.

Zhou Rongrong lowered her voice, feeling helpless.

"I can't answer you, but I can assure you that you will live a better life in the future. Now that things have come to this, there is no way to reverse it."

This is a very cruel statement, but it is also true. This is the way it is. What can we do? This is an unsolvable question, and no one can answer it.

The child's eyes were no longer visibly vicious, but confused. He didn't know what the future would be like, but being able to leave here now was the best thing. He pushed through the crowd and picked up a baby who was a few months old.

These children had no clothes to wear, but this child had complete clothes to wear, neatly arranged, and even had a small hat on his head.

"She's five months old. I thought she might die after we were sold, but now it seems that she won't die, right?"

The child looked very listless. No wonder her crying was not heard during the commotion just now.

Zhou Rongrong took the child over. The child was light and fluttery, not at all like a five-month-old baby. His hair was dry and yellow, his face was pale, and his mouth was tightly closed. It was obvious that he was severely malnourished.

The child seemed to sense safety, blew a bubble, and continued to sleep.

Zhou Rongrong had nothing to understand after seeing this scene. She was just trying to protect her youngest sister.

Zhou Rongrong said, "Let me send her out first and bring you some clothes."

The child said: "My name is Li Hao."

Zhou Rongrong glanced at him, nodded, and walked out with the child.

The sudden appearance of light made the child in Zhou Rongrong's arms feel uncomfortable for a moment, and she just burrowed into Zhou Rongrong's arms. She picked up her sleeves and considerately blocked the sunlight for her to avoid eye injury.

When everyone saw Zhou Rongrong coming out, they hurried to greet her. When they saw a little baby in Zhou Rongrong's arms, their anger reached its peak.

Everyone was filled with righteous indignation and picked up their weapons and wanted to kill those people. No, killing them was too easy, cutting them into pieces would not be too much.

Du Wen suppressed it, who wouldn't be angry? But these people's retribution shouldn't be like this. With the general here, his methods will only make people live a life worse than death.

Zhou Rongrong handed the baby in her arms to Xie Wuyou, who took it carefully. The child had been wearing these clothes for who knows how long, and they had all kinds of smells, which were very unpleasant, but Xie Wuyou didn't show any disgust at all.

He only felt guilty because he had failed to protect the people of Da Zhou, which led to such a thing happening. If there was anyone who was guilty, he should be the one, right?

Zhou Rongrong instructed.

"Don't feed him yet. You need to check him first before you can treat his body. Also, don't expose his eyes to the sun. It would be better to tie a transparent black cloth around them. General Du, please prepare some clothes for me. I'll take them with me."

Du Wen took people to prepare clothes. The two were silent for a while. Xie Wuyou broke the silence and asked, "How are those children?"
