Fragrance is good for purifying the heart

Chapter 215
The two old ladies stretched out their big hands in time to catch Gardenia's limp body. One of them, Gardenia still had consciousness, could recognize that it was Zhang's mother.

Zhang's mother looked at Shen Dan several times worriedly, as if she was worried about being scolded, "I'm sorry, owner of the village, you said that you thought this woman might be a monk, so the medicine the old slave just gave was a little stronger, maybe because of the dosage. If it is too big, this woman will vomit blood, but if she wants to sell it at a good price, it should not affect it..."

Shen Dan's face still had that kind look, and now it actually looked a bit like the look of Guanyin he drew. It's just that the blood sprayed on his face by Gardenia, paired with his Bodhisattva state, gave him a weird and cute look. terror.

He sighed heavily, picked up the Baihong Sword that Gardenia had dropped, stared at it for a long time, and finally uttered a few words:

"It's actually a top-grade fairy sword. The medicine should be as strong as possible, otherwise how could this girl be harmed?"

The mother glanced at Shen Dan's face and hesitated: "And... and..."

"What else is there? Why are you hesitating?" Shen Dan was a little unhappy.

"That Liu Mei'er... I've checked it, and it's true that it's broken..."

"Alas..." Shen Dan sighed again, "If it's broken, let it be broken. I'll buy some money at least. This female cultivator is in jail. Don't make any mistakes again."

Gardenia's eyes were wide open at first, and blood was flowing from the corner of her mouth, but she couldn't say a word. She tried to use the last bit of spiritual power in her body to communicate with Xiao Yuzhong: "Little Yuzhong, protect my mother..."

Her fingers gently rested on Xiao Jade's changing snake-shaped bracelet. Perhaps Xiao Jade felt that its owner was in danger, because the surface of the bracelet actually lit up with a bright light, which only stayed for a blink or two. , the light gradually faded again.

But all of this fell into Shen Dan's eyes. The flesh on his slightly old face trembled, and he couldn't help but let out a soft hum.

At this time, Gardenia was gradually losing consciousness, and the whole person seemed to have fallen into a silent night.

As if a long time had passed, Gardenia smelled the strange smell of rotten sweat at the end of her nose. She faintly woke up. Her eyes had not yet adapted to the darkness and she could not tell where she was, but she found that her hands were covered with something. It was applied behind his back, but he didn't know what kind of rope it was tied with, but he couldn't break free no matter what.

Moreover... the spiritual power around her seemed to have sunk into the sea and disappeared.

Originally, according to Gardenia's cultivation, she could easily break free even without using the spiritual power in her body. Normally, ropes would not be able to trap her at all.

"It's useless, this is the dragon's tendon, specially designed to deal with monks..." A faint voice sounded, coming from somewhere in the darkness. Gardenia's gradually recovering consciousness allowed her to notice that there seemed to be many gentle voices beside her. Shallow, heavy or floating breathing.

Could it be that there are many people around her?But who was that voice just now?Those words, just a few words, were full of disappointment. Oh, no, it should be a feeling of despair that came from those simple words. Gardenia could only tell that it was a woman, but for some reason, that voice It sounds familiar.

Gardenia is naturally familiar with the dragon tendons she just mentioned. Once the hands and feet are bound with dragon tendons soaked in dragon blood, it is equivalent to the spiritual veins being sealed and the cultivation level being completely lost.Unless someone helps you untie it, or cut it off with a top-grade immortal sword.

"You...who are you?" Gardenia asked in the direction of the voice in the darkness, but what she got was a heavy sigh. "Even if you know who I am now, what's the use?" The woman sighed, "We have been locked up here for a long time. Every few days, new people will come in here, but you can only get in here, but no matter what, I can’t get out. Even if... I am also a female cultivator like you."

"Ah, you are also a female nun?" Gardenia moved her body following the voice. In the darkness, she seemed to have basically adapted to most of the darkness, and she could vaguely discern some directions and some faces in the darkness.

Those should all be women, old or young, clinging to each other and gathering in a group. Their thin bodies were all trembling. The female nun who just spoke to her was also among them, but she was the only one who was still calm. Yes, but there was countless despair in her voice.

Gardenia came closer and looked at her carefully. The woman was also looking at her, and suddenly both of them were shocked——

In the darkness, Gardenia looked carefully at the outline of the eyebrows, eyes, and corners of the mouth along the shining pupils, and immediately recognized that this woman was someone she recognized: "Yucao...Senior sister--why is it you?"

Yucao also gasped, recognizing that she was Senior Sister Yucao who was captured with dragon tendons by a group of traffickers including Grandma Liu in Yanghua County that day. She was a disciple of Yuxu's Bu Hongsuan. , and was later rescued by Gardenia and Beimian.

But afterwards, she insisted on searching for the whereabouts of her fellow junior sister alone. Gardenia could guess a thing or two about what happened next, looking at her situation.

Sure enough, Yucao briefly told what happened to her, Gardenia and Beimian after they separated in Yanghua County. In short, "one careless move and everything is lost." She sighed to Gardenia and said : "I never expected that human trafficking is so rampant today. After I left you last time, I inquired about my junior sister along the way. I was extremely careful, but I still didn't want to think about Dao'er, that colorless person. Tasteless out-of-body powder mixed with water is very harmful."

Out-of-body dispersion?Presumably this is a method commonly used by human traffickers to deal with "goods".

Gardenia didn't know what to say about her experience, so she had to change the subject, "By the way, didn't you say you wanted to look for your fellow junior sister who was in trouble? Have you found her?"

After Gardenia asked, she saw Yucao's eyes in the darkness looking at the sleeping person next to her, "Found it, this is my fellow junior sister Yuyao. She has suffered more than me, and she seems to be a little nervous these days. We are sick, sleeping every day, and most of the people locked up here do not have enough to eat. The mothers outside are worried that we will run away once we gain strength, but who wouldn't want to run away from such a situation?"

Gardenia was silent and chatted with Yucao for a while. She basically understood her situation. It seemed that she was also a human trafficker. Then Shen Dan might be a big evil person, but he had drawn such a picture with his own hands. There are many statues of Guanyin, but he is actually a heinous human trafficker!
The key now is how to get out of this predicament and escape!It would be best to rescue the imprisoned women like Yucao.

"Girl Gardenia, can you escape?" Yucao placed her hope on her, her eyes, filled with sadness and water, glowing in the darkness.

"Let me think about it..." Gardenia was silent, thought for a while, and began to try to communicate with Xiao Yuzhong's spiritual consciousness. She remembered that Xiao Yuzhong told her that when she had no control over her body, Xiao Yuzhong was She could use spiritual power to control her body for a short period of time. If she could, saving herself and escaping would not be a problem.

Besides, the little jade seed can also be turned into a jade knife to cut the dragon's tendons, but it just takes time.

"Xiao Yuzhong, are you there? Can you hear what my mother is saying?" But she called for a long time, but could not get a response from Xiao Yuzhong. At this time, her hands were tied behind her back, and she didn't know if Xiao Yuzhong was still around her wrist. superior.
