"Last year, that terrible epidemic took the lives of our parents. Just when we were starving, that bad guy showed up. When he brought us home, I foolishly thought I had found a savior. Who would have thought that he would actually lock my sister in a cage and force me to go out and steal money every day like a herd of livestock!"

At this point, the boy's voice trembled slightly, then he wiped his eyes and continued with a bit of sob.

"As long as I can steal a little bit of silver, my sister and I can barely fill our stomachs, but if we return empty-handed, then we will both go hungry."

"Thanks to the uncle who gave us a lot of money that day, my sister and I were able to have a decent meal. However, since then, my luck has been very bad. I haven't had anything for several days in a row. My sister has had no choice but to endure the torment of hunger with me..."

"Child, why don't you seek help from the authorities? Is there no justice in this world?"

When Lu Wangyou heard this, his brows furrowed, and a hint of anger flashed in his eyes.

"Hmph, the government? They're nothing but snakes and rats like those bullies! I once mustered up the courage to ask for help from a man in official uniform, but not only did he not believe me, he even beat me up!"

The boy raised a bitter smile, his eyes full of distrust towards those officials.

"Humph! The royal family of Wenqu State always boasts of being impartial and impartial, yet within this capital city lies such a dark corner of inhumanity. So, in the final analysis, the Yun family is nothing but a bunch of empty talkers!"

"Brother Lu, do you... have some deep hatred towards the royal family of Wenqu Kingdom?"

When Bai Yue heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. This was the first time she saw Lu Wangyou scolding someone so mercilessly.

"Well, I'm just expressing my feelings, Dazhuang, don't take it to heart!"

Lu Wangyou realized that his emotions were out of control, so he quickly waved his hands, a trace of embarrassment flashing across his face.

Seeing that the other party didn't want to talk in depth, Bai Yue stopped asking. She turned to look at the boy and asked seriously.

"You just said that you were controlled by the boss, but why are you here with your sister now?"

The little boy was worried that Bai Yue would think he was lying, so he quickly explained.

"Awang told me. He overheard that Dadangtou and his men were planning to abandon my sister in the mountains. So I secretly followed them all the way and finally rescued my sister..."

"Awang? They? You mean, besides the boss, there are other people controlling you? And you're not the only child harmed? Are there other innocent children who suffered as well?"

Bai Yue frowned and continued to ask questions.

"Yes, the big boss has five helpers under him. They keep an eye on us all day to see if we are slacking off. There are five more kids like me. We are forced to help them do those bad things because our younger brothers and sisters were taken hostage by them..."

Having said that, he couldn't help but lower his head, his voice full of helplessness and sadness.

"Little guy, can you tell me your name?"

Bai Yue looked at the lowered little head and asked gently.

"Oh, my name is Ba Jin, because I weighed eight kilograms when I was born. My sister is called Liu Jin. Mom said that the year when she was born was not good..."

Bajin didn't understand why Bai Yue asked his name, so he quickly explained it to Fang in detail.

"Then Ba Jin, do you have the courage to take me to find that big boss, so that we can rescue all your friends together?"

"Really? Big brother, are you really willing to help us?"

Bajin's voice was full of surprise and disbelief, but soon, a trace of worry crept onto his face.

"But the boss and his four men are very fierce. Can you handle it alone, big brother?"

"Haha, have you forgotten how I dealt with those bad guys half a month ago? Back then, I didn't even use 10% of my strength!"

Bai Yue smiled confidently, and hope glimmered in Bajin's eyes again.

"That's right, how could I forget that you're super awesome, big brother? Come on, I'll take you to settle the score with that big boss right now!"

As soon as Bajin finished speaking, his eyes fell on Liujin who was still sleeping. At this time, Lu Wangyou beside him spoke softly with a warm voice.

"Bajin, don't worry, I will take Liujin back to my home and take good care of him!"

As he spoke, he had already carefully held Liu Jin in his arms, his movements so gentle as if he was afraid of disturbing the other person's dream.

"Da Zhuang, after you rescue those children, please send them to my house first. I live alone now anyway, and having these children around will make my life more lively!"

"Brother Lu, this is really great. Thank you for helping these children. Thank you so much!"

A warm feeling surged in Bai Yue's heart, and she couldn't help but bow deeply to Lu Wangyou, while the other party smiled and joked with a hint of joking.

"Look at you, why are you being so distant with me? I sincerely want to do something for these children, so I can't accept your generous gift!"

"Alright, don't delay any longer, go rescue those children! I'll prepare food and medicine at home, and I'm waiting to hear the good news of your triumphant return!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Yue no longer stuck to the politeness. She turned around and looked at Bajin and spoke seriously.

"Bajin, let's go find your friends first. Once everyone is gathered, we'll bring your brothers and sisters back safely!"

"Ok!"

Bajin nodded heavily, his eyes flashing with expectation and trust. After an incense stick of time had passed, Bai Yue led six children with dusty faces but bright eyes and stood in front of an old black lacquered door.

"Bajin, are you sure this seemingly tender-skinned older brother can really help us rescue my younger siblings?"

In the team, a little boy with dark circles under his eyes asked with a hint of uneasiness and apprehension in his voice.

"Awang, don't worry! This big brother is a hidden master, and he's really good at fighting!"

"Besides, after our brothers and sisters are rescued, a kind uncle is willing to take us in and give us all a good meal!"

"Ah? Are you sure that uncle is reliable? He won't be like the boss again..."

Before Awang could finish his words, Bajin interrupted him and said proudly.

"Don't worry, the uncle who took us in is the kindhearted man who gave me a lot of money half a month ago, so we just need to go with Brother Dazhuang to rescue people and don't have to worry about other things."

Bajin's words were like a warm current that instantly dispelled the haze in his companions' hearts. Everyone looked at each other, and sparks of hope ignited in their eyes.
