"What do you want to do?!" Ma Yiluan stared at the mountain people beside him with resentment on his face and shouted angrily.

The man with yellow teeth holding his shoulder snorted and slapped him, "Stop yelling, I'll break your legs if you keep yelling."

This fellow had a lot of brute strength in his hands, and with one slap, half of Ma Yiluan's face was swollen. Feeling the bad intentions from the people around him, he suppressed his cries of pain.

"You two tie this guy back first." The man with yellow teeth spat and said to the two people beside him.

The two men took the hemp rope, wrapped it around Ma Yiluan's neck, and then extended it to his hands to tie him up tightly.

“You guys… um… um…”

Ma Yiluan's neck was tightened by the rope, which hurt so much that he had to lean forward and be taken away stumblingly like another prisoner.

The yellow-toothed man then smiled smugly, and then looked down the mountain with a sullen face, "Damn, these two college students are quite smart. If the kids hadn't tipped them off, they might have really gotten away."

Ma Yiluan was dragged by a rope and walked back along the mountain road, feeling the raindrops falling on his face, feeling extremely desperate.

"Yan Wenxuan, our fate now rests entirely in your hands."

After walking along the dark mountain road for a while, I finally saw some light.

The two men escorting him immediately quickened their pace and soon walked into the village chief's house with wet hair.

Someone in the house heard the footsteps and rushed out impatiently, limping away at an unexpectedly fast pace.

When he saw that the person he had captured was Ma Yilun, his expression suddenly became irritable, and he shouted with his hands twitching, "Where's my fairy wife!"

The mountain man holding the rope smiled at him and said, "Don't worry, Dashan. It's raining so hard that none of these college students can escape."

Dashan stiffened his neck, blushing and shouting: "I don't care! I don't care! I want the fairy to be my wife!"

Ma Yiluan's face turned black after hearing this. He wanted to retort that he was a toad wanting to eat swan flesh, but because his mouth was blocked, he could only stare blankly and gasp.

Dashan yelled a few words and was then calmed down by the village chief who patted him on the back.

"Lock him up too. We'll talk about it after we catch all the people." The village chief took a puff of his pipe and motioned for the two men to bring Ma Yiluan in.

After entering the main room, Ma Yiluan discovered that there were a few people sitting inside. He had met them when he was substituting for a class the past two days.

The previously honest and simple expressions of these people now became eerie and creepy, and Ma Yiluan felt a chill for no reason.

Before he was kicked into the basement, he vaguely heard these people muttering the names of several girls except Shen Qingjun.

As the entrance and exit closed, the light coming from above disappeared completely, and Ma Yiluan inexplicably felt an urge to cry.

He suppressed his fear and groped a few steps in the darkness, when he suddenly heard an extremely suppressed breathing sound.

"Uh...uuuu..."

Ma Yiluan hurriedly struggled to utter a few incomprehensible syllables with his mouth, trying to attract attention.

He moaned incoherently for a long time without any response. Only when he was exhausted did he hear a hoarse voice.

"Ma Yiluan?" Her voice trembled a little. After asking the question, she seemed to have lost the courage to speak anymore.

“Hmm… Hmm…” Ma Yilun immediately recognized it as Tan Zishan’s voice and responded excitedly.

Tan Zishan curled up in the corner, and her dull eyes brightened up a little.

She stood up timidly and asked tentatively: "Is your mouth blocked?"

Ma Yiluan nodded frantically and kept moaning to send signals.

"My hands are tied, please come closer." Tan Zishan's voice was hoarse and it was unknown how long she had been crying.

Ma Yiluan took small steps towards the source of the sound until Tan Zishan's outstretched foot touched his body.

"I bumped into you, walk in the direction where my foot is."

Tan Zishan gave instructions for a long while before finally getting Ma Yilun to adjust his position. She then turned her wrist and pulled the thing out of his mouth.

"vomit--"

A dry retching sound came out of Ma Yilun's mouth, and after a long pause he said angrily: "These people are really worthless!"

Tan Zishan remained silent, and after a pause she asked, "Why were you arrested too? Are they trying to sell our organs?"

Under normal circumstances, Ma Yiluan would have laughed at her wild imagination, but now he just lowered his head and stammered.

"It shouldn't be the case. Organ trafficking is no different from murder. These people kidnapped us probably to extort money."

Tan Zishan was immediately cheered up after hearing this. "How much money do they want? I can ask my family to raise the money, but can you please not lock me up here? I'm so scared."

Ma Yilun sighed in his heart and pretended to be relaxed, "Don't be afraid, I'm here to accompany you."

"Yan Wenxuan should have escaped. Once he gets out and contacts someone, we will be rescued soon."

Tan Zishan exclaimed when she heard this, "They want to arrest Yan Wenxuan too?"

Ma Yilun smiled bitterly and fumbled to sit on the ground. "It's not just Yan Wenxuan. This group of people didn't want to let any of the six of us go."

"Fortunately, Yan Wenxuan and I reacted quickly, otherwise we would have been helpless."

Tan Zishan was silent for a moment, then hesitantly asked, "Do you think he can escape successfully?"

“No problem, if it weren’t for those little bastards, I…” Ma Yiluan nodded, cheering himself and her up without hesitation.

Before he could finish his words, he saw a ray of light coming through the entrance, and then someone was pushed in with staggering steps.

The light flashed and disappeared, and Ma Yilun's expression froze completely. He asked uncertainly: "Yan Wenxuan?"

"Um..."

After Yan Wenxuan was able to speak, he was heard blaming himself: "It's all my fault. I didn't realize something was wrong sooner."

Ma Yilun sighed, no longer in the mood to blame: "What does it have to do with you? Who would have thought that this group of people were so bold, and there was also the bitch Wu Xiaoya..."

"Teacher Wu?" Tan Zishan's red and swollen eyes froze in disbelief. "Is she also in the same group with this group of people?"

Yan Wenxuan shook his wet hair and said in a dry voice: "Let's not talk about why Wu Xiaoya colluded with them. Those kids in the school are really creepy."

Ma Yiluan nodded in agreement when he heard this. Thinking of the looks of the children he saw on the mountain road just now, he now felt cold sweats in his heart.

Tan Zishan became excited when she heard Yan Wenxuan's words. "I finished my class at noon and was planning to go find Lu Xiaoyun. There was a girl crying and saying she missed her mother."

"I tried to coax her for a long time but it didn't help. She kept clinging to me and asked me to take her home, and then..."

Yan Wenxuan's eyes showed helplessness, and he shook his head in despair: "Who would have thought that a teacher who has been teaching for many years and a group of children left behind in the mountainous areas would actually become the harbinger of evil."
