Rebirth of the times, a top-level boss joins the national team

Chapter 113 The Plan of the Vine House

"People who talk about death and do it easily must have done countless shameful things, and they are very familiar with them and have no psychological burden.

Do you think such people and places can be ordinary?

He named you, so he can do whatever he wants to you. This shows that your background is not legitimate. So, if you are not sold, what are you? Have you seen him do anything to those honest educated youth?"

Chu Yu was confused by Tu Shan, but she also admitted that she was indeed sold.

"I was indeed sold by my stepmother because she wanted to give the job my mother had reserved for me to her own daughter.

My father turned a deaf ear and condoned everything. He usually allowed my stepmother, stepsister and siblings to bully me, and now he is allowing my stepmother to ruin my life.

I have been here for more than two years and have suffered bullying for more than two years.

At first I resisted, tried to escape, and still held out hope, feeling unwilling and angry. But after I was caught and subjected to even worse beatings and humiliation, and even implicated other people, I realized that I was abandoned.

After so long, I have compromised and accepted my fate.

Oh... isn't it very cowardly?"

The girl's eyes were gray and lifeless.

Tu Shan disagreed and shook her head: "That's quite wise. If you knew the details of the Heshan Brigade, you would know how transparent you are.

What's the big deal about being bullied by a short-lived dog? It's even worse than a mosquito bite. Staying alive is the most important thing."

Chu Yu blushed at what he said, but when she thought about it, it was true that Old Man Qiao had lustful intentions but no capital. His tools were short and thin, and they stayed soft for a short time. Every time, she only needed to hold her breath to finish. She didn't seem to feel anything during the whole process, and she had the illusion that she was still a young girl.

It's really worse than being bitten by a mosquito.

"What's the details of the Heshan Brigade?"

Tu Shan moved forward and said mysteriously, "Did you know that the Heshan Brigade is a den of human traffickers?"

Chu Yu was shocked: "How is it possible?"

Tu Shan: "It's impossible. How did you get in? Do you think a respectable place would accept an educated youth with an illicit background like you?"

Chu Yu's head was buzzing. She had always thought that the Qiao family was just a local tyrant and a village bully, and she didn't think there was anything wrong with the Heshan Brigade. After all, the other people looked quite normal and were kind to her.

But on second thought, something seemed amiss. The Qiao family acted arrogantly, and other people knew about it, but they all turned a blind eye. It was obvious that they either did not dare to intervene or were in cahoots with them.

Are you afraid to intervene?

The villagers did not seem to be subservient, fearful, or hateful or stay away from the Qiao family.

That means going along with the crowd.

After figuring it out, Chu Yu realized how stupid she was before. No wonder she couldn't run away and was always found and taken back by Old Man Qiao.

She shouted for help, but no one showed up.

Old Mrs. Qiao always picks on her for no reason.

Although others were kind to her on the surface, she always heard all kinds of gossip behind her back.

No wonder, everyone knows it, they all know it.

After figuring it out, Chu Yu didn't feel sad or ugly at all. Instead, the hatred made her heart harder.

"But I didn't see any other people being sold here?"

Tu Shan sighed, "If you find out, you won't survive. This isn't the end, it's just a transit point. Think about it, have any of you educated youth disappeared? Have any of the others around you disappeared or died unexpectedly?"

Chu Yu has been in the Heshan Brigade for more than two years. During this period, two people died in accidents, three people were missing, and five people disappeared.

The two people who died fell into the river, and the three missing people went hunting in the mountains together and never came back.

The five people who disappeared were those who received notices to return to the city and left one after another.

Were all these people sold out?

Chu Yu felt a chill running straight to the top of his head, and he felt unwell all over.

"After I had been here for about a year, I had a chance to return to the city. I didn't know why I had such a chance, but I was very excited and happy to escape from this den of wolves. However, Old Man Qiao blocked my way back to the city and mocked me for being so reckless. I hated Old Man Qiao for a long time.

If I had returned to the city, would they have sold me out?"

If so, to a certain extent, Old Man Qiao was her savior.

Tu Shan thought for a moment and said, "Not necessarily."

Chu Yu breathed a sigh of relief. Although it was over, she was still happy knowing that she had not experienced this kind of crisis.

Tu Shan said, "It's also possible that they took the kidneys directly."

Chu Yu???

"What do you mean?"

Tu Shan grinned, "Once the traffickers get the goods, they might sell them as a whole or for parts."

It took Chu Yu a while to understand what he heard, and she suddenly felt sick.

So, this is what Old Man Qiao really meant, right? Normally, people who are trafficked will not necessarily die.

He was certain she would die because of this.

Chu Yuhou was so scared that her whole body was shaking. She had to admit that she was really afraid of death.

"how come?"

"Xiao Chu, how about you do me a favor?"

"What?" Chu Yu looked at Tu Shan in a daze.

"Help me get something useful out of Old Man Joe."

Chu Yu looked at Tu Shan in surprise and doubt: "Who are you? What do you want to do?"

Tu Shan smiled brightly: "I am here to save you. I represent light and justice."

Chu Yu...

After Chu Yu left, Tu Shan walked around the mountain for a few more laps, listening to the villagers chatting.

It took more than an hour to hear something useful.

The whereabouts of Qiao Laosi.

When Tu Shan returned home, it was already dark.

Everyone in the courtyard had finished their work and returned to their houses, but they had not yet gone to bed and were talking in the houses.

Nine out of ten families talked about missing persons. Because of this, people were in panic and no one dared to act alone. They either went out and came in as a family or in groups of three or five, and never went alone.

The kid who used to not go home until dark was now taken back to the house early and cried loudly in the house.

Tu Shan went back to the house, closed the door, and cooked a big pot of noodles for herself. After eating, she took the Gastrodia elata stewed chicken and other things she had left for her parents and went out.

It's August and the temperature is still very high, but it gets much cooler at night.

The moon is bright tonight and the visibility is very good.

In the vine house, the old couple were busy late today, and those people came to make things difficult for them again. They dragged them away and criticized and educated them for a long time, but they had to do their work and there were always people on the road, so they didn't dare to go back.

I kept dawdling until everyone went back before I sneaked here.

The couple had a good idea. After the water outside dried up, they would still have to build the shack. They would hide it here as a secret residence and store some food and supplies for emergencies.

They didn't dare to live here, otherwise if that beast Tu Liang found out, it would be a small matter of destroying the place, but it would be a big matter of implicating others.

Tu Shan thought so too.

However, she had no intention of letting the water outside dry up.

After putting the things into the vine house, I secretly promoted the growth of some thorns outside, and the coverage area expanded to more than one meter, not too much, not too little. From now on, I will let it grow longer every few days to cover this area, which will be safer.

She didn't intend to clean up the accumulated water mixed with all kinds of filth, and just let it flow. This thing is very useful. Under the influence of high temperature, it emits a pungent smell. No one has approached recently. It is a natural barrier for the vine house.

Tu Shan was worried that the high temperature would eventually dry up the water, so she continued to use the public toilet and started to deal with the thorns on it.

Use vines to extend underground, find groundwater, dig a big hole, let the water flow upward, and flood the area, ensuring that the water does not dry up all year round, which is safer.

From then on, my parents built a shed on a higher place nearby to serve as a cover.

But it can't stay this smelly forever, so I went to the woods and found some water-purifying weeds and planted them in the water. Over time, these weeds will turn the water dark green, and it will look dirty, but it won't have a pungent smell.
