During the lunch break, several children started looking for and digging bamboo shoots in a bamboo forest on the side of the road. Since they were only a few dozen steps away from the crowd, neither adults nor children were on guard at all.

Jing Chunxi and the others were still talking, laughing, and playing around at first. They were not far from each other and were all among a few bamboo clumps, but the forest was so dense that they could not see anyone after taking a few steps.

Jing Chunxi didn't know how the others were abducted. She only remembered that she was digging happily when she found a bulging and cracked bamboo root with obvious winter bamboo shoots underneath. Suddenly, she was hit on the head with a stick, and then she knew nothing.

When I opened my eyes again, I found myself tied up in a cave, unable to move my hands and feet, and my head was still aching from being hit.

It took me a long time to open my eyes and adjust to the situation before I saw Shiro and Kuroko were tied up next to me. They had also just woken up.

The two little girls were tied up like two dumplings, but they were still sleeping soundly. I heard them snoring softly, and I felt relieved to know that they probably didn't have any fatal injuries.

Jing Chunxi was woken up by Shilang and Heizi kicking him one by one. He had a headache and was confused. It seemed that their conditions were similar to his, but fortunately, neither of them seemed too panicked.

Heizi looked very calm, constantly observing the surroundings of the cave.

She never expected that someone like herself with spatial abilities would one day be targeted in such a way.

If she hadn't foreseen the danger in advance, she wouldn't have been able to escape even if she had space. This time she was careless.

Heizi deliberately lowered his voice: "What should we do?"

Several people's hands and feet were tied with ropes, otherwise the two boys would not have kicked her.

Shiro: "Grandpa and grandma must be very worried."

They thought that the man surnamed Fang was dead, and the remaining officials were either dead or returned the same way. The people who wanted to harm them were no longer around, so they relaxed their vigilance.

Unexpectedly, they still got into trouble while passing through this deep forest. You can imagine how anxious their family members outside must be when they can't find them.

Because her hands and feet were tied, Jing Chunxi couldn't use any strength now. She could use her mind to put several people into the space, but it was not a foolproof plan.

Not to mention that this space will be exposed to more people. Once they enter the space, there will be no one to untie them. If they want to get out, they can only come out the same way they came, and they still can't escape, so they have to find a way to untie them.

Jing Chunxi wanted to know who had kidnapped them and for what purpose. As long as they didn't threaten the safety of his grandparents, he didn't mind if they suffered a little, but they couldn't stay here for too long.

Jing Chunxi was afraid that Silang and Heizi would worry, so he comforted them, saying, "It's not a disaster year, so they won't slaughter us like four-legged sheep."

Jing Chunxi still felt that the people who abducted them were probably the bandits that Tao Jin mentioned. The bandits did not want to face so many officials directly, and perhaps they were using them as bargaining chips to gain benefits.

I'm afraid their plan will fail. The officials won't care about their life or death, and they probably won't even stay to look for them.

"Can you pull the dagger out of my boot with your mouth?" With the dagger, you should be able to cut the ropes that bind them with some effort.

"We've all tried, it's impossible." These thieves are very experienced and look up to them. Not only are their wrists tied, but their palms are also tied up. The one or two fingers that are not tied are completely useless. Without the strength of the palms, it is impossible to remove the dagger with just the mouth.

Jing Chunxi was helpless. She didn't want to delay any longer. "I'll lead them in. You guys continue to pretend to be asleep and protect the two little dumplings. I'll take care of the rest."

As long as he could find a way to get the bandits to untie the ropes on their hands, he could use any weapon in his space.

This must be the bandits' hideout. As long as we can find out, we will be able to drug them.

"Help! Is there anyone here?" Jing Chunxi started shouting.

"No! I can't let you take the risk. If anyone should go, it should be my cousin." When Shilang heard her suddenly yelling outside, he wanted to cover her mouth, but he was tied up and couldn't do it. His face turned red from holding it in, but he still couldn't break free from the ropes on his hands.

Heizi didn't say anything and just watched the two of them arguing quietly.

The voice had been sent out, but there was no response for a long time. Jing Chunxi did not give up and continued to shout outside.

Sure enough, after a long time, an old male voice cursing was heard outside.

Hearing someone was about to come in, Silang anxiously kicked Jing Chunxi twice, insisting not to let her take any risks.

"Cousin, you have to believe me." Looking at Silang's concerned and anxious eyes, Jing Chunxi comforted him.

"Didn't you see that grandpa, grandmother and third uncle all listened to me? You must be capable, otherwise why do you think mother asked me to follow her all the way?" Jing Chunxi shouted at Silang who was struggling desperately to stop her. She didn't want her cousin to make things difficult for her at this time. This kid could never do anything good.

"Listen to me, pretend to be asleep! Your mission is to protect them."

Jing Chunxi's eyes were a little scary. She had made a great decision, and now it would be best for her to go out.

"What are you doing, you little bastard? What are you doing? Stay still and don't cause trouble, or you'll be in trouble." An old man with a hunched back came in, and he looked quite old.

Before he came in, Jing Chunxi had already looked around with his eyes that had adapted to the light. There was a small oil lamp lit inside, but it was still very dark.

This was a bandit warehouse. The cave wasn't very large, but it was very long. The sacks piled high in the back were probably all food. There were also some scattered items on the ground, including swords and weapons, but not many. There were more than a dozen abandoned saddles.

It seems there are quite a few bandits here.

Jing Chunxi: "I need to poop."

If he hadn't forced himself to close his eyes and pretend to be dead, Silang would have rolled his eyes at her: The Marquis's Mansion is really not good. How can the legitimate daughter speak so vulgarly? Fortunately, she is still young and can be disciplined in the future. If I can go back this time, I will talk to my grandmother and ask her to face the wall for a few days when we arrive in Lingnan.

"What are you doing? Just stay here." The old man was unreasonable and immediately interrupted Jing Chunxi's words. After saying that, he picked up the lantern and wanted to turn around and go back.

Jing Chunxi pretended to be in great pain: "No, I can't bear it anymore."

Old man: "Even if you can't help it, you have to bear it." This is really infuriating!

"Or should I just poop here?" Jing Chunxi deliberately glanced at the pile of food, frowning tightly and looking hesitant.

Shi Lang curled his lips: If there really is something in your intestines, do you really want to poop in your pants?

"You are the only one who is nosy. Come out quickly." Sure enough, when the old man thought of the pile of food, his eyes changed. That was what they ate every day, how could it be wasted by this little girl.

His voice was very impatient, and out of anger he kicked Jing Chunxi.

"Ouch!"

Jing Chunxi huddled up in pain and fear, then pretended to cry, "I'm tied up and can't move.

Wuwu, please, grandpa...don't kill me, I'll be obedient."

Shiro: That's so ugly! Don't tell me you're my cousin.
