Chapter 21 A strange place

On August 8st of the Xian calendar year, the weather was sunny.

What the hell is this place?

Why couldn't she find a way out?

I really want to slap everyone here, and then I will feel that my hands are dirty.

The mountain spring gushed out white drops of water, and the wooden basin swung out a basin of clear water. Clothes fell into the basin, followed by the sound of beating wooden sticks in the mountains.

The girl washed her clothes, picked up the tub, and headed home. She stopped to greet friends and family along the way. When she got home and hung the clothes out to dry, she heard a heated argument from inside.

"Who told you to touch my things?" It was the woman's angry voice.

Then her father's voice came, "You're living here now, so what's wrong with me taking some of your things?"

"It's not like I didn't pay you. I'm telling you, this is called stealing!"

"If it weren't for our Xiao Cui, you would have been captured and married off by the village bachelors. You're still being so arrogant. You should be our slaves!"

"I'll be your sister!"

Xiao Cui hurried into the main room, only to see her father about to pick up a stool and smash it on the woman's head, while her brother was watching with glee beside him.

Xiao Cui quickly stood in front of the woman, but her father hit her arm as if he didn't see her.

Xiao Cui held back a cry of pain, but her hand was ripped away by the woman. The woman, enraged, slapped her father across the face with a resounding "smack!"

"How dare you hit me?! You stinky bitch!" Her father was stunned for a moment, then rushed forward to hit the woman.

Xiao Cui was anxious, but the woman stopped her from doing so. She kicked her father, who lay helpless on the ground, crying out in pain. Her brother, watching from the side, cursed and tried to hit the woman, but after being slapped by her, he sobbed and hid in a corner.

"Finally it's out." Lin Qingyue breathed a sigh of relief, feeling a rare sense of relief.

After she arrived at this small village for unknown reasons, she was taken home by Xiao Cui. She watched Xiao Cui serve her father and brother all day long. Sometimes, Xiao Cui's father would look at her with obscene eyes, and Xiao Cui's brother would sneak into her room every night to steal her things.

Lin Qingyue really couldn't stand these two bastards anymore, so he deliberately let Xiao Cui's brother steal something, and then confronted Xiao Cui's father.

"If you hit them, they will hit you again in the future." Xiao Cui covered her arm that had just been injured and spoke in a low voice.

"Then beat them until they dare not fight back." Lin Qingyue picked up the stool next to him and smashed it directly at Xiao Cui's father.

"Ah!" Xiao Cui's father groaned in pain. Lin Qingyue squatted down beside him and raised his hand to slap him twice in the face.

"You want to hit me?"

"You bitch."

"Pa pa!" Two more slaps.

"Do you still want to hit me?"

"Bitch—ah!"

"Pa pa!" Two more slaps.

"Why don't you learn your lesson?!"

"No...I won't fight anymore."

"Pa pa!" Two more slaps.

"I'm wrong. I don't really like your attitude."

"I was wrong! I was wrong!"

Lin Qingyue paused and turned to look at Xiao Cui's brother in the corner. She was standing in the shadows, yet it felt as if invisible tentacles were waving behind her. The child clung tightly to the wall, offering a sincere apology.

"I was wrong!"

Lin Qingyue looked at Xiao Cui and smiled.

"See, that's all."

Xiao Cui stared at her blankly. She had never felt the sunlight was so glaring.

Over the next few days, Lin Qingyue taught Xiao Cui how to exercise. After being beaten by Lin Qingyue for a few days, Xiao Cui's father and brother were still determined to commit adultery. At night, they secretly planned to tie up Lin Qingyue and sell her to a brothel. When Lin Qingyue discovered this, she tied them both up. Then she went to Xiao Cui's room and woke her up.

"Uuuuuuu..."

When the two men saw Xiao Cui, they moved towards her excitedly. Xiao Cui looked at her father and brother moving towards her and thought about how after her mother passed away, she had to do heavy housework every day and embroider to supplement the family income. Meanwhile, her father and brother had nothing to do, and had to wait on her like a useless person.

"What are you thinking about?" A beautiful face enlarged in front of her eyes, and Xiao Cui took two steps back.

No, no, no, she should release her father and brother.

If it weren't for this woman...if it weren't for her...

Xiao Cui took two steps back.

"Where do you want to go?"

"I don't know..." She took two steps back, almost reaching the threshold. As long as she left this place, she wouldn't have to face this woman and her father and brother. Even if her father and brother talked about it later, she could say that she was scared by that woman and didn't dare to save them. This would make it all right, would it? Why did her father and brother do this? Why did that woman hit her father and brother? Why did she want to go out but didn't want to?

Lin Qingyue laughed when he saw her actions, as if he was mocking her and also feeling pity.

"Of course you can leave, but what happens after you leave? After what you've been through these few days, can you go back to the days of oppression?"

Xiao Cui's body stiffened. Lin Qingyue left the room, smiling slightly before leaving.

"If you want to let him out, just let him out~" She would tie him up anyway.

Not long after Lin Qingyue walked out, the door was closed and a muffled cry of pain was heard from inside.

Dust-Breaking System spoke in an angry tone.

"I told you to just arrest everyone and beat them up until they confess. There aren't any real people here anyway, and we've been in this rubbish bin for days!"

Lin Qingyue rolled his eyes at it.

"Catch them all? You'll give me points? You're really talking without any hesitation. Give me points and I'll beat them all up right now."

She has used two powerful spells in the past few days alone, and only has 940 points left.

As soon as it heard that points were required, the Dust-Breaking System went silent.

"Why are you just calculating points? Can't you consider the overall situation?"

"This overall situation only includes you, Pochen." Lin Qingyue said softly.

At night, chewing sounds echoed through the room, and the man arched his body and lay on the child. After a while, the rope fell. The little boy scrambled to his feet, and the man gestured for him to lie down and whisper.

The child nodded and tiptoed out of the window.

He walked along the dirt road to a house at the entrance of the village and knocked on the door.

"Who is it so late at night?!" An old man came out.

"Why are you here?" The old man was surprised to see the child.

The child told the old man what had happened in the past few days and asked him to help him. When the old man heard that there was a powerful tigress in his family, he quickly shook his head.

"Don't you know my body? If something happens to me, I'll go to hell to meet my ancestors."

The child was anxious, "What should we do?"

The old man rolled his eyes and said, "Don't you know where the doghouse on the city wall is? Go in and find the Sun family!"

"..."

"I understand."

The child took a lantern from the old man and went to the town.
