Under the big locust tree, Xie Fei was squatting under the tree with a small shovel, digging a hole with a grunt. Judging from the small pile of earth next to it, it must have taken him quite some time to dig.

Zhou Xing stood behind him and watched him dig, and the shadow he cast completely enveloped Xie Fei.

"No." Xie Fei threw the shovel into the pit. He turned back indignantly and asked in a resentful tone, "Why are you just standing there?"

Zhou Xing reached out and pulled him up, wiped the dirt that accidentally stained his face with his fingers, and chuckled: "Look at you squatting there, it's quite cute."

How could Xie Fei not know his bad taste? He glared at him and said, "Did you find it?"

"Yeah." Zhou Xing raised his chin and motioned him to look at the tree.

Xie Fei looked up and saw a human skull hanging on the tree.

He was silent. It was such an obvious thing, but he couldn't find it for a long time. He must be a little blind.

"Humph!" He was a little angry again. Zhou Xing had obviously seen it a long time ago, but he still hid it from him. Let's see where he was digging a hole. "Bad guy!"

Zhou Xing pursed her lips to hide her smile, hugged him, bit his earlobe lightly, and said, "Isn't this considered a hobby between us?"

Xie Fei glared at him again.

Since they had found what they were looking for, there was no need to stay any longer and they started walking back.

"stop!"

"Catch her now."

Suddenly, an urgent roar came from the front.

Xie Fei saw a group of old men chasing a young woman.

When the woman saw the two of them, she paused for a moment, her eyes suddenly lit up, as if she had seen a savior, and ran towards them directly, and knelt down in front of Xie Fei.

She gestured with her hands, her face stained with sweat, and opened her mouth to indicate that she couldn't speak.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

Xie Fei looked at her and actually understood what she meant.

What the woman said was: "Save me!"

"Who are you?" A dozen big men holding wooden sticks and hoes looked at Xie Fei and his friends. One of them wanted to catch the woman, but was kicked away by Xie Fei.

"You are not from our Zhenjia Village, right? I advise you to mind your own business and get out of here!" The middle-aged man in the lead had a ferocious look on his face, but you could tell from the looks of him that he was definitely not a good person.

"What is your relationship with this sister?" Xie Fei asked coldly.

"This is my wife." said the leading man.

"It's my sister." said the short man next to her.

Xie Fei went to see the woman.

The woman shed silent tears and shook her head at him, indicating that what they said was not true.

Xie Fei looked at the woman carefully. Although she was wearing coarse cloth, her skin covered with dirt was snow-white and her fingers were slender. She did not look like a rural girl.

You only need to use your brain a little to know how women came into being.

Xie Fei took a deep breath, thinking of what Zhong Liang said about the decreasing number of women in these three villages, which had reached a point of insufficient supply. And now the appearance of this woman had laid another conjecture nakedly before him.

"Brother, let's take her away." Xie Fei said to Zhou Xing while helping the woman up.

The woman understood what they said, and she looked at Xie Fei and the others as if they were a life-saving straw, but there was an inevitable hint of vigilance in her eyes.

"Leave those people to me." Those people raised their weapons and rushed towards them.

Xie Fei had a cold face. It was daytime now and they could use skill cards. Without saying a word, he used a group attack skill card. The raging fire instantly surrounded those people and burned them to ashes.

But the next second after the villagers died, time seemed to freeze, and they reappeared in front of Xie Fei and the others, more like the refreshing of small monsters and NPCs.

"You, you just wait!" Those people were still frightened by Xie Fei and the others, and ran directly into the village, as if to shake people off.

Xie Fei was not stupid enough to wait for them to call someone over. He took the woman and went with Zhou Xing to meet You Heng.

……

"I asked you to find the talisman, why did you bring someone back?" When You Heng saw the woman behind them, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Xie Fei threw the human skull he had taken from the big locust tree to him, and then briefly recounted his experience of meeting this woman.

After listening to the brief process, You Heng understood it and frowned, saying, "Let's go back to the camp first. Those people will definitely come looking for us."

"it is good."

Xie Fei sent a message to Chen Xuan and the others, asking them to return to the camp directly after finding the talisman, and also reminded them to be careful of the villagers.

After arriving at the camp, You Heng began to ask the woman.

The woman waved her hands and opened her mouth to show them.

No tongue.

Xie Fei asked her: "Can you write?"

The woman nodded, and quickly went to find a stick and wrote a few words on the ground.

Xie Fei read out those words: "Save me."

The woman's desperation can be seen from her handwriting.

"This is too troublesome." You Heng stuffed the little fox into Xie Fei's arms, then stretched out his hand, with his fingers ready to touch the woman's forehead.

The woman shrank back in fear.

You Heng's voice became lighter: "Don't be afraid."

The woman hesitated for a moment, but still let him touch her.

"He can read minds." You Heng put his fingertips on the woman's forehead and used a magic that could directly see what happened to the woman.

After a few minutes, he lifted the spell with a sullen face.

The woman's eyes went dark and she fell to the ground.

Xie Fei noticed something was wrong and asked, "What's wrong?"

You Heng frowned and said, "The situation seems to be more complicated than we thought."

Xie Fei said in a deep voice: "Will it affect our plans tonight?"

"No." You Heng thought for a moment, then reached out to take the little fox back, pinched its elastic ears, and said, "Let them see the cause and effect line of this woman."

Their peek can only be shared with teammates, and if they want everyone to see it, they have to cheat.

"Hmph." Xie Bai proudly stretched out his claws, and a ray of light spread out, allowing Xie Fei and the others to clearly see the cause and effect line on the woman who was unconscious on the ground.

"See? It's the thread of destiny." You Heng explained to them, "I saw in this woman's memory that they were all trafficked here."

"They?" Xie Fei's expression was slightly cold.

You Heng nodded and said, "Yes, there are thirteen people with her. If I guess correctly, if we can save them, it will be considered a lifeline. You should know how precious the lifeline is, right?"

Xie Fei nodded. He certainly knew that when the number of destiny lines exceeded 80, special tasks might be activated, and the life and death line could be changed to a certain extent.

In other words, the more destiny lines they have, the lower the probability of death will be. For people like them whose life and death line is about to exceed the limit, it is extremely precious.

"Judging from your expression, do you want to take down these destiny lines?" You Heng asked.

Xie Fei nodded and said, "Yes, and it must be taken down."
