The moonlight fell brightly, landing on the girls and casting shadows behind them.

But when they stepped into the forest, the moonlight withdrew from their shoulders.

The mountains are pitch black, the forests are dense, and even the moonlight cannot shine into every dark corner.

They just disappeared into the mountains.

The next day, Aunt Cui waited at the station for a whole day but they didn't show up.

She was furious: "Those little girls, will they change their minds and not go? What will happen to my business if they don't go?"

"The boss said that those employers prefer young and tender girls, saying that the children born from such girls are healthy. They are even willing to pay twice the price for this."

"But now...if they don't come, how can I earn the commission?"

"I still have to go back to them. How can I not make the money that is so close to my hand?"

After she returned, she asked around and found out that all the girls were missing.

The incident soon alarmed the police, who searched the entire mountain for the person.

Not long after, the police found Aunt Cui to inquire about the situation.

Because Aunt Cui has been in frequent contact with the missing girls during this period, and often buys them some delicious food and drinks.

This move naturally aroused suspicion.

However, the investigation did not find any necessary connection between Aunt Cui and the disappearance of the girls.

In addition, Aunt Cui and her colleagues work very closely and did not leave many clues.

Even her account did not have much money flowing in and out. All the commissions she received from introducing people were placed in another account.

Of course, she also knew that this business was illegal, so she had a backup plan.

In addition, since she was later involved in supernatural incidents, Aunt Cui’s suspicion became even lower.

After all, she is just an ordinary person. Even if you think there is something wrong with her, there is no direct evidence to prove it.

But no one expected that at this moment Sang Feiwan would reveal all the truth.

Aunt Cui was sure that Sang Feiwan had no evidence and was about to continue denying it, but suddenly she thought of something:

"Oh, now I remember. I heard that the families of those girls pooled their money to find a fortune teller online. Could it be you?"

"But what if you figured it all out?"

Aunt Cui held her bulging belly with both hands and cried out in pain: "My belly is getting bigger and bigger, and it hurts more and more. Am I really going to give birth? What the hell is in my belly?"

Her screams quickly attracted the attention of people outside.

Two guards opened the door and shouted, "Don't make any noise!"

When the guard saw Aunt Cui's belly, his expression suddenly eased a little: "So you are pregnant, just bear with it. After 10 days, when the baby is born, the stomach pain will go away."

Aunt Cui boldly asked, "Is there any way to abort this baby? The Fool Spring... Yes, in Journey to the West, drinking the water from the Fool Spring can dissolve the fetus in the stomach. Where is the Fool Spring? Where is it?"

A female guard said, "What do you mean by abortion spring? The baby in your belly is almost formed, so it's only natural that it should be born when the vine is ripe. How can you just let it fall out?"

Another female guard said, "It's fate that she can be in your belly. When your child is born, you will officially be considered one of us. We will then arrange a place for you to live and ensure that you and your daughter have no worries about food and clothing."

Sang Feiwan frowned slightly: "Mother and daughter? Can we determine the gender of the child now?"

The female guard explained: "You are outsiders so you don't understand. When a woman here becomes pregnant, she will only have a girl. Unless there is a man who mistakenly enters here, there will be no other men."

Sang Feiwan was thinking about Yu Beiming, and asked again: "Will the two men who came with us come back after seeing the queen?"

The female guard laughed and said, "When a man comes to us, he is a treasure that everyone wants. He will also be warmly received when he enters the palace."

"As for whether he will come back, it depends on whether the Queen and the civil and military officials in the court will like him."

"If you are chosen, you will be rich and prosperous. If you are not chosen, you will return to the common people."

"Once he comes back, he will become a hot commodity and be recruited as a live-in son-in-law."

Sang Feiwan asked: "What if I don't obey?"

The female guard smiled even more brightly: "The women here are all beautiful. Men are all lustful ghosts. When they see a beautiful woman, they can't even walk. They must pester her to have sex every night until..."

She didn't continue talking, but the smile on her face made people feel a little creepy.

Another female guard urged Sang Feiwan: "You must get pregnant soon and contribute to our continued offspring, so that you can officially become a resident here."

Sang Feiwan smiled and asked, "What if I don't want to?"

The two women's expressions suddenly became serious: "Then they will die."

After saying that, the two of them retreated and locked the door again.

Aunt Cui was still howling "Ouch, ouch":

"Is this the underworld or the world of the living? I would rather go to jail than suffer in this place. Ouch, ouch, something is moving in my stomach, oh, stop kicking, it hurts!"

Sang Feiwan ignored her and wondered what the situation was like on Yu Beiming's side.

Yu Beiming and Jiang Shu were taken all the way out of the town.

When we walked out of the town, we saw the chastity arch again. Its shape and carvings were exactly the same as the one on the pedestrian street.

When they got outside the town, the road was much wider, so they changed to a horse-drawn carriage.

The fields along the way were shrouded in pitch-black darkness.

There were many farmers working in the fields, and without exception they were all women.

When several women carrying hoes and farm tools passed by the carriage.

Jiang Shu couldn't help but ask, "Are you still farming in the middle of the night?"

The female general who was riding a tall horse beside the carriage continued, "Here, we work when the moon rises and rest when the moon sets. The moon has just risen, so the day's work has begun."

After she finished speaking, she rode forward, walked to the front of the team and urged them, "Hurry up, Her Majesty the Queen is waiting!"

Jiang Shu's face suddenly turned bad.

If there is only night and no day, wouldn't that be a place of extreme yin?

Where is there only night and no day?

The answer is self-evident.

Jiang Shu turned his head and looked at Yu Beiming, who nodded slightly, confirming his guess.

Seeing that he was a little nervous, Yu Beiming smiled calmly: "Why, are you scared? Do you regret following me in?"

Although Jiang Shu had experienced many unsolved cases and come into contact with many unknown forces in the past.

But those cases were nothing compared to this one.

He shook his head: "I'm just wondering, where is Zhou Peng now? And where are those missing girls? How confident am I that I can rescue them?"

At this time, his primary consideration was not his own safety, but how confident he was in saving people.

Yu Beiming asked him: "So, how confident do you think you are in saving people?"

Jiang Shu was silent for a while, then shook his head: "Not a cent."

In this strange place, he didn't even know how to get out, let alone save anyone.

Yu Beiming patted his shoulder and comforted him: "Don't be nervous, I will take you out."

The tone was still calm, as if he was just speaking casually.

But for some reason, Yu Beiming gave Jiang Shu a feeling of great peace at this moment.

Who is the person that Minister Meng has called here?
