210 Happened to Stop by
âEh, youâre not from Moon village and its surroundings, right? Where are you from? Why did you come to be a prisoner? And it seems...â
The young man saw BaiYingâs face, and also saw his hands sticking out of his shabby robes, those white and smooth hands, with slender fingers and beautifully manicured nails, not dirty and black like himself and the young men and women of the Moon villages and its surroundings, BaiYing just notices it, he forgot to disguise himself in such a way, he was in a hurry.
He withdrew his hand to hide under his cloak.
âHehe, I, a distant relative, happened to have only lived a few days in the village, surely because you were here first so you didnât recognize me, after all, my parents forbade me to leave the house and just do nothing, heheâ
The young man who was now sitting leaning against the wall because of his injured smiled, he held his stomach which was kicked so hard by the guards, just a little laugh made his ribs hurt,
âHehehe ackh, it could be, heh, too bad, with your so clean and sweet face like this, you will definitely be taken first, that person wonât let the good stuff stay for too longâ
BaiYing sat beside the youth, frowning.
âAre, they really the guards from the city officials?â
The young man nodded.
.....
âWell, who else, corrupt and uncivilized government people, this country is really destroyed because of these peopleâ
âThey did it secretly, this is against the rules, if the palace finds out, the punishment will be severe.â
BaiYingâs words made the youth grin.
âHehe, you are too innocent, how could the palace not know about this? Theyâve been doing it for a long time and there hasnât been any reaction from the palace, it must be because there are great people supporting them so the palace pretends not to see it, heh, this is really badâ
BaiYing thought, it has the point if it happened a long time ago and the palace didnât know, this must be because someone was covering it up, or, indeed, the local government of MaYang City was so good at hiding it. After all, after knowing about this they couldnât just close their eyes now, especially after finding this camp and these children.
But first, BaiYing better thinks about their plan to escape, this must be very easy, he just has to burn the biggest house there and cause a riot so they can escape, the logs that are the bars of this prison are also not very sturdy wood, even his flames could easily burn black iron though, this was nothing to him.
BaiYing looked around, saw the youths which numbered probably around ten to fifteen people, along with his new entourage, so previously there were only ten people left in detention?
According to old man Li, the number of children brought from the village was quite large, including his son was about twentyâs, so where are the other youths?
âDo, you know old man Liâs son?â he asked.
The youth looked at BaiYing for a moment, frowning.
âOld man Liâs son? Why are you looking for him?â asked the young man.
âEm, I promise to help his son to get out of prison, also the kids of the old man Lo and old man Baiâ
The young man saw BaiYingâs face, then lowered his head to refrain from laughing, it made BaiYing frown at the attitude of the young man in front of him.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âWhat?â he asked.
The young man shook his head.
âI am LiManYi, old man Liâs son, he asked you to save me? Hey, look at yourself, and look at me, isnât this upside down?â
BaiYing frowned, staring at the young man named LiManYi in front of him intently.
âWhy? Canât I do it?â he asked excitedly.
âWell, I didnât mean that, heh, it should be, this big and strong ManYi, who can protect everyone in the village, but, the truth is, Iâm too stupid, having strong strength alone doesnât make me a hero, those city soldiers have great strength and weapons, even if I can hit one of them the other ten will come to attack, how can I protect them, what a foolâ
BaiYing pulled his lips, seeing the face of the young man who looked down, he must be so upset about this.
Without too much time to waste, first what he have to do now, slowly raised his hand, open his palm in front of the young man stomach, without even touching it, when no one was looking at them, he emitted the green light from his palm, which instantly made the young man comfortable, as if his wound heals. ManYi was shocked, almost jumped away but BaiYingâs hand held him, looking at him with a big smile on his face.
âY-Youâ
âHehe take it easy, this will only help to heal your wounds, you said you want to protect everyone? How about after your wound heals, you help me and the others get out of here?â
ManYi stuttered, he looked at BaiYingâs face with wide eyes, swallowing his saliva whole.
âGleukâ
âY-You, who are you?â
Bai Ying smiled.
âI already told you, Iâm the son of a distant relative who happened to be stopping byâ
....
Night came, everyone had fallen asleep at their place, only a few guards who stand by near the detention room and the big house which might be where their leader was.
BaiYing hadnât got the time to see who the leader was but according to ManYi who had been there for a while, he was a young man with a clean face and clothes, everyone obeyed him, he was also the one, who chose the youths that they take away whether to be sold or killed.
Not long after,..
BaiYing and ManYi behind him, managed to sneak out after BaiYing burned the wall and made a hole in the back of the detention room and came out without any guards seeing them. This is too easy, BaiYing thought, after all they just had to get out of there, free all the youths and run away, even though the Crown Prince and others havenât arrived yet but they donât have much time left, according to ManYi every morning before dawn, there will be guards who take the chosen youths by force.
BaiYing and ManYi stopped in front of the window of the biggest house where ManYi last saw the Bai familyâs daughter being brought there, they had to take her out too and run away together, BaiYing opened the window slightly, peeking at what was inside.
âGod damn it! Who do you think you are, you bitch,â the sound of slaps, punches and the heavy impact of falling objects.
Prangg!!
âAh! Please sir, please donâtâ
BaiYingâs eyes widened, the girl was almost naked on the floor with her top and bottom clothes torn apart, he couldnât help but push the window,
âkrekkk!â making a loud sound, the eyes of the man whoâs standing in front of the helpless girl turned around, widening his eyes as he saw the window was open with a fleeting person running away.
âGod damn it! Guard!â
In a short time, the manâs shout invited many guards to come and immediately drew their weapons at BaiYing and ManYi,
ManYi opened his arms trying to protect BaiYing and instantly the guards who were always on standby charged forward simultaneously attacking.
âAttack!â
With his large body ManYi blocked the guards as hard as he could, while BaiYing was about to rush towards the house to save the girl and the others, but at the door of the house stood the man who had his back to him, the man who hit the helpless girl, with one hand bandaged, who looked at him sharply.
âWhoa, look whoâs here?â
BaiYing didnât expect to see that person there, he should have guessed.
âYouâ
It was BaoLi Yuang who looked at BaiYing with a big smile, as if ready to swallow him.
âHehehehe this is called a tit for tat, how many days have I thought about you sweet child, and you came alone, do you miss me that much?â
......
Heeeeeee!!
The sound of horses neighing loudly stopped quickly, the Crown Princeâs entourage finally managed to approach the hidden cave area after searching for all night. The sky slowly brightened, and LuoXiangâs watchful eyes saw smoke from a distance and followed it, that was a signal from BaiYing, the boy said he would definitely find him because he will make a very big fire for everyone to follow.
The Crown Prince pulled the reins of his horse and flung his whip rushing towards the direction of the smoke.
âCome on Bei, itâs a signal from YingYingâ he shouted.
The group moved quickly, thick smoke was visible from between the rocks where many people were running out of there, peoples who might be village youths running away.
âHurry out!â
There were quite a number of them, LuoXiangâs eyes scanned everyone, he jumped down from his horse to stop one of the youths who seemed to be signaling the young women with shabby faces and clothes to run away. LuoXiang held ManYiâs hand as the young man was about to head back towards the cave.
âDid you see a beautiful young man inside?â he asked, ManYi looked at the face of the Crown Prince for a moment, a very tall, clean, and handsome face young man, ManYi pointed towards the door of the cave covered with sweets.
âHeâs still inside, Iâll go in to help himâ ManYi shouted, he rushed back to the cave, without thinking twice LuoXiang followed him.
âYour Honour!â BeiYau exclaimed following LuoXiang.
