The younger sister-in-law falsely accused the sickly uncle and ran away with the baby
Chapter 203 We Don’t Want to Be Eaten Alive
Qin Haowen immediately nodded in agreement, and followed quietly using his lightness skills.
This should be their gathering place. These people who buy and sell children gather here for a short rest.
"How many children did you get today?"
"We got a lot today. We bought about thirty kids and kidnapped more than ten."
"What? You've kidnapped so many people. If you were discovered, those peasants wouldn't let you out."
"Hey! I have no choice but to do this. The boss needs 50 boys and girls every day. Girls are easy to get, but where can we get so many boys? I can only kidnap them!"
The person opposite nodded, feeling the same way. "Hey! We used to be good at buying and selling children, but now they want us to get virgin boys and girls."
"Any family with a boy would love him like a treasure. How could they possibly sell him?"
When the man heard this, he looked left and right, then whispered in his ear, "You don't know this, do you? Our boss has established a relationship with the prefect of Qingtian Prefecture. I heard that there is a Taoist priest next to the prefect of Qingtian Prefecture. He said that eating these boys and girls will make you immortal. If you eat them regularly, you can even become an immortal."
The person on the other side widened his eyes in surprise, "What? Is this true?"
"Hey! Who knows if it's true? Anyway, the prefect has been taking it for quite a while and he feels the effect is very good, so the officials below are following suit, and they must give it to children between four and eight years old."
"If it's too small, it won't grow. If it's too big, the flesh will be tough. Anyway, there are many things to pay attention to."
"But, that's why we can make money!"
Qin Haowen clenched his fists in anger as he listened to what those people said. He wanted to go out and beat up these beasts right now, but he knew that even if he killed everyone in front of him, it would be useless because the culprit was the prefect of Qingtian Prefecture...
Qin Haowen took a deep breath, then quietly returned to Yu Dehou and the others and repeated the conversation they had just had.
Everyone present gasped in anger.
How could there be people in this world who are worse than animals?
And he is the prefect!
No one knows how many young boys and girls he ate during his long reign, and how many innocent families he harmed.
Originally, everyone was thinking of going to Qingtian Prefecture to replenish supplies, but now it seems that not only can they not go there, but they also have to take a detour.
Otherwise, their children might be in danger of losing their lives.
Yu Dehou thought for a moment and looked at Qin Haowen. "Do you have any good ideas? Can you save our child?"
Qin Haowen pondered for a while, and immediately began to lead his men to quietly make arrangements, waiting for people with bows and crossbows to completely surround these people.
Yu Dehou then brought his men and rode his horse to the front of those human teeth.
Seeing this, the other men also drew their swords and looked alert. One of them recognized Yu Dehou and thought to himself, "This group must be looking for the kidnapped child."
"They have bows and crossbows in their hands, it's not easy to deal with them!"
Yu Dehou also spoke at this time: "Everyone! We don't want to be your enemies, nor do we want to cut off your financial resources, but you can't take our children away by force!"
"If you hand over the kidnapped child, we will leave immediately. But if you don't, don't blame us for being rude."
The people on the other side saw that Yu Dehou's group, which consisted of only about 20 people, instantly became arrogant and said, "We exchanged these children for food. Why should we hand them over?"
Shu Dachao stood out from the crowd and spat fiercely, "Bah! I only have this one son, how could I possibly sell him to you?"
The man replied in a very shameless manner: "It's your fault that you can't take care of the child."
"Anyway, this kid got on our car, so he's ours. Don't push your luck."
At this time, Qin Haowen and his men suddenly rushed out from the nearby bushes and woods. Each of them was holding a bow and crossbow with an angry look on their faces, wishing they could kill all these people immediately.
Those human teeth wanted to say a few more rude words, but when they saw the cold arrows pointing at them, their voices softened.
"Hahaha! We have something to talk about, why are we doing this?"
"Aren't they just a few kids? It was so chaotic back then, it's possible they were caught by mistake. Tell me! What are your kids' names? I'll bring them out for you."
"But let me make this clear first. You are absolutely not allowed to take away those who have been sold."
Yu Dehou nodded, then waved to the fathers behind him who had lost their children, asking them to go find someone quickly.
Yu Dehou also followed Shu Dazhao to look for the sapling.
They first drove a carriage and saw about a dozen children inside. They were huddled together tightly, their eyes were dull and their bodies were weak.
When they saw someone lifting the curtain, they squeezed in out of fear, their whole bodies trembling.
"Little sapling!?"
"Are you there, Sapling?"
No one in the car responded. Shu Dachao went up to check on each child, but he didn't see his own sapling.
Yu Dehou quickly consoled him, "There are more than a dozen carriages over there. Let's go over there and take a look."
Shu Dachao immediately jumped out of the car and went to look for other people.
As soon as I opened the curtain of the second carriage, I saw several other children from the village.
He quickly waved to those people, "Hurry! Our children are here."
The fathers who had lost their children ran over quickly. When they saw their babies lying powerless in the carriage, they felt like a knife was stabbed into their hearts and felt extremely uncomfortable. Several of them quickly got on the carriage and took their children down. When the children saw their fathers, they couldn't help but burst into tears.
"Dad! I won't run around anymore."
"Dad! You finally came to save us!"
The carriage was basically filled with children from Hedong Village and Hexi Village, including a few who had been sold. They all looked at the children who had been taken away with envy. They dragged their weak and sore bodies and tried to crawl out of the carriage to see if their parents had come to pick them up.
But before he could crawl out, he was pushed back by those human teeth.
"Look carefully, these are the only children in this car that are yours. The rest are the ones we bought with our own money."
Yu Dehou also opened a carriage, and the children inside were even thinner. They looked at Yu Dehou in horror, their small bodies curled up into a ball, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
This is a cannibalistic world!
Just as he lowered the curtain and turned around to look for other people, a small hand suddenly grabbed his big hand tightly, choking and begging, "Uncle! I know you are here to look for someone. Please take me with you. I don't want to be eaten by them."
"Please, save me!"
The other children in the carriage also reacted, holding on to their bodies, and rushed forward to hold Yu Dehou's hands and sleeves, "Uncle, please save us, we don't want to die."
"We don't want to be eaten alive."
