The coroner and the concubine doctor pursue the murderer in the Dali Temple

Chu Yunxi couldn't help but be shocked to find out that this was a gang that trafficked women across the country. In just three years, the business had grown so big and an one-stop industrial chain had been formed.

She guessed that Mr. Zhang's mansion must have been buying children from poor families as maids every day, and then imprisoned them when they arrived at the mansion for the so-called Mr. Zhang to play with. After a while, Mr. Zhang got tired of playing with them, and County Magistrate Zhu had channels to sell them. Then Liu Tiezhu and his men would be responsible for escorting them. On the way, several of them would use the women as tools for their fun and let them sleep on weekdays until they were sent to their destination and the transaction was completed.

It was simply audacious, not taking human life seriously at all. Xiao Mubei was very angry. The laws of Dasui were very strict, but buying and selling slaves was not against the law. After all, which wealthy family didn't need maids? Poor families could also earn income by sending their daughters to wealthy families as maids. This was originally within the scope allowed by the law. Unexpectedly, someone actually took advantage of this loophole in the law, tricked women into buying and selling maids, and then imprisoned and sold them. This violated the bottom line of the law.

He doesn't take human life seriously and he kills people at any stage to prevent possible mistakes in order to cover up his crimes. He does this in the name of the government. How can such a scum be worthy of being an official?

Chu Yunxi said: "I'll go check on those women."

The backyard was guarded by the purple-clothed guards. The four women were drugged and there was no antidote, so they could only wait for them to wake up on their own. Fortunately, a night had passed and the four of them woke up one after another. When they woke up, they saw a beautiful woman in the carriage. They were all startled and huddled together, looking at Chu Yunxi with fear in their eyes.

Chu Yunxi said with a cheerful face: "Don't be afraid, I'm here to save you. Liu Tiezhu and the other two have been captured by us. You are free now."

The four women looked at each other in disbelief. Finally, a round-faced girl who was a little braver said timidly, "Sister, are you telling the truth? Those three people..." She looked outside the carriage with lingering fear, but she couldn't see anything. "Were they really arrested?"

"Really, believe me, you can get off the carriage now, no one will stop you." Chu Yunxi jumped out of the carriage first, stood in front of the car, looking at them with encouragement.

The four women hesitated for a long time, and the round-faced girl slowly moved out first. Chu Yunxi helped her jump off the carriage. She took a deep breath of fresh air, shielded her eyes with her hands and looked at the sun in the sky. There was no trace of the three people around, so she gradually believed what Chu Yunxi said was true. She turned around and shouted to the three people inside: "Sisters, you can really get off, come down quickly."

The four of them had not gotten off the carriage for almost half a month. Except when they needed to go to the toilet, they were not allowed to step out of the carriage at other times. Moreover, they were awake less often and slept more often, so they had no chance to get off the carriage to breathe fresh air.

Now, hearing the round-faced girl calling them, several women finally walked out of the carriage half-believingly and half-doubtingly. They looked around nervously for a long time, and when they saw that the people who frightened them did not show up, they jumped off the carriage with peace of mind.

Chu Yunxi saw that they were like frightened birds. They would tremble with fear as soon as one person passed by. She couldn't help but feel even more angry with Liu Tiezhu and his men, these hateful human traffickers.

Chu Yunxi led several women into a newly opened guest room, where food had already been prepared. When they saw the delicious food, their eyes lit up, and they didn't bother to say anything. They all rushed to the table and ate without any image. They didn't know how long they had been hungry. Chu Yunxi said beside them, "Eat slowly, don't choke, there's more if it's not enough."

Wan Ruwei also came over at this time. Looking at the women sitting at the table wolfing down their food, she angrily said to Chu Yunxi, "Junior sister, those people must be punished. They are so heartless."

Chu Yunxi said: "These few people are just minions. It's not worth it to deal with them. The people behind them are the real trouble. Killing them is not enough to appease the public anger."

Finally, the women could no longer eat. Chu Yunxi had the food removed and sat face to face with them. She said softly, "Don't be afraid. We are from the government. You have been rescued. Now can you tell me where you are from?"

The round-faced girl whispered, "My name is Qingyao, from Suhuai."

When the other three heard Qingyao introduce herself, they also spoke in low voices. The four of them were actually from different towns, which further confirmed Chu Yunxi's guess. Zhang Yuanwai's mansion was indeed searching all over the country for suitable women to abduct and sell. Su Huai is located in the south of the Yangtze River, about 200 miles away from Wushan. Their hands are really long.

Several people told Chu Yunxi about how they were kidnapped one by one. Chu Yunxi roughly understood it. It was indeed the same as she guessed. This was a one-stop industrial chain. First, the Zhang family sent people to search for suitable women all over the country. Maybe now they already know that the farther they go, the less trouble they will have. So these women are far away from home, so the chance of their parents coming to find them will be greatly reduced. And when their daughters go out to work as maids in wealthy families, it is normal for them not to come back for several years because they are far away. This avoids the need to kill her parents to clean up the mess like Yan Mingzhu did.

Because the monthly salary given by the Zhang family was far beyond the local average, some people were tempted and asked their daughters to sign a living contract and follow him. These parents might not have thought that this was sending their daughters into a fire pit. Entering the Zhang family was equivalent to entering hell. They not only had to work, but also had to be entertained. According to Qingyao, Master Zhang did not treat them as human beings at all. He came up with all kinds of tricks to torture them. Sometimes, he would give them to the servants to play with. She had witnessed sisters being tortured to death. The Zhang family would wrap the people in straw mats and throw them on a mass grave, leaving the bodies to rot or be eaten by wild beasts.

Those who were lucky enough to survive would be picked up after a while, and taken to an unknown place by Liu Tiezhu and his men. They would never return, and no one knew whether they were dead or alive. Therefore, everyone in Zhang's house was walking on thin ice. They hoped to be picked up and leave this hell, but they also didn't want to be picked up. Who knew if the next place they went to would be a hell even more terrifying than this place? This contradictory mentality filled the hearts of every girl in Zhang's house like them.
