How did a good exile turn into a runaway?

Ouyang Xuance had no choice but to call his own soldiers and ordered 2 cavalry to follow Zuo Yi and rush to Qingliu Town.
"Do you think it's like them? Do you have account books or other things, or correspondence?"

Shen Qiuge was walking up the mountain at night. Although it was dark, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, and the road could be seen clearly. Suddenly, he asked Zhao Wencong in front of him,

: "There should be! Unless the people who come and go are very single, how can he remember so much running water? There must be records, but I don't know where to put them?"

"If it were you, where would you put it?"

"If it were me, I would put it in a relatively private place, such as my bedroom or study, put it in a secret compartment, or in a secret room."

Zhao Wencong blurted out the words without thinking. Shen Qiuge nodded in agreement.
"That's true, but he doesn't have an orthodox study room for a monk. It's probably hidden in his room. Let's sneak in and take a look later when the monks have morning classes."

"Okay, there seems to be a cave ahead. It's darker than the places next to it. I don't know if it's there."

Zhao Wencong suddenly heard the words from the front and above. Shen Qiuge looked down and it really looked like a cave.
"Hmm! Be careful? Maybe there's someone guarding there."

Shen Qiuge's reminder was reasonable. He and Zhao Wencong touched it lightly.
It was very dark inside the cave, but both of them were martial arts practitioners. There were heavy breathing sounds inside the cave, as well as the sounds of people teasing and cursing, and the sounds of people crying, but those cries were obviously muffled. Shut up,

Shen Qiuge had a bad feeling in his heart, but he couldn't act rashly. Of course Zhao Wencong had guessed it, and his face looked ugly at that moment.
"What should I do? If I go in now, will I alert the enemy?"

"Even if there are guards here, there shouldn't be too many people here. Let's go in and take a look first, and then we'll see if we can act accordingly."

After saying that, they entered the cave first. The cave was very large and the gravel on the ground must have been cleared away, so the ground was fairly flat. The two of them did not encounter any accidents.

After turning a corner on the mountain wall, there was a faint light from the torch. The two people approached quietly, and the sounds inside became clearer and clearer.
What a bunch of beasts!Shen Qiuge had already taken off the whip from his waist and wrapped it around his hand, waiting to go in and deal with the people.
"There are four of them, and they are all standing up now and are easy to attack."

Because Zhao Wencong was walking in front, when he was walking at the entrance of the cave, he stuck his head out and took a look inside. After seeing the general situation clearly, he turned around and told Shen Qiuge,
Since Shen Qiuge was standing there, he stopped talking and rushed over. Using the light of the torch, he whipped out the whip, wrapped the two people's necks and pulled hard, killing them on the spot.

The remaining two people were still in shock when their acupoints were tapped by Zhao Wencong who was following behind. The appearance of the two shocked all the dozen or so conscious girls in the cave.
Then came the feeling of ecstasy and relief that climbed onto his face,

"Are you here to rescue me? Did my father send you here? Untie me quickly."

"Please help me! Wuwuwuwu~"

"Heroes, I kowtow to you. Please help me. Please help me."

The girl was crying and kowtowing, her already dirty face even more miserable. The others insisted and kowtowed one after another. Except for the first one who spoke, she looked at Shen Qiuge and the two of them with a proud look, but their eyes looked like they were going to survive. Fortunately, Brother Shen Qiu caught him.

"Everyone, get up! What happened to those unconscious people? They are still alive!"

Zhao Wencong didn't feel comfortable coming forward when he saw all the women, not to mention some of them were disheveled. He was really embarrassed and turned his face to the side, but he still asked out of concern,

When everyone heard this, they all responded in a flurry, making Shen Qiuge frown.

"Okay, everyone, don't make any noise. You are safe now. Just be on your own and answer the questions."

Shen Qiuge blamed the first person who spoke and said,
Seeing that the other party ignored her, Li Xin'er knew that she had thought wrong. She was a little embarrassed, but also a little angry, but now was not the time to care about this, so she pursed her lips and said
"They're not dead yet, they're just knocked out. The medicine hasn't worn off yet. There are 24 of us in total, and there are several people locked up alone inside. Please loosen the ropes for us quickly! We won't make a big fuss. It’s too much trouble.”

Shen Qiuge used a dagger to cut the rope tied to them. The person whose rope was cut moved his hands and feet, and some quickly turned around and helped the people behind him to untie the rope.

Of course, Shen Qiuge would not give the dagger to them. It was obvious that some people had been violated. If someone who couldn't think of it snatched the dagger and did something, wouldn't it mean that he had done something bad with good intentions.

"Don't move here now, and don't run out of the cave. Someone will definitely come here later. You will be in danger if you go out if you are not familiar with the place. I will arrange for someone to pick you up and take you to a safe place later, so now you Just rest and wait for dawn,

It's not your fault that you encounter this kind of thing. If you have no place to go, I can arrange a new place for you. You can live peacefully there and no one will know about your past.

Okay, crying is a way to vent your emotions, but it's not completely safe yet. Don't be too loud. Now you are basically rescued, because the risk to your own life is not worth the loss. "

Shen Qiuge saw them taking the initiative to help others, but she stood aside and did not move. Instead, she told them her thoughts and future arrangements.

After everyone's ropes were untied, except for the few women imprisoned there, they were now free. After all, they were all girls. As soon as they were freed, their first reaction was to cry. But after what Shen Qiuge said just now, he did not dare to Even if you cry loudly, you will cover your mouth and cry in a low voice, and don’t dare to get too emotional.

This kind of scene made Shen Qiuge sad, and his lips kept tightening.

Shen Qiuge asked them all to step aside, and he went to the back. There was a small space behind, with several straight wooden stakes forming a separation, turning it into a small cell.

After counting, there were seven women, each of whom was tied to a cross. There were various torture instruments on the wall. There was even a brazier that was still glowing with fire. An iron rod was placed inside. Shen Qiuge was not interested. What shape does the soldering iron look like?
Shen Qiuge opened the door and walked in to check their pulses. They were severely malnourished and had been tortured for a long time. There were wounds everywhere on their bodies. He turned to the outside and shouted,
"Is there anyone who can come out to help? Come here and help carry these people out. They are all too seriously injured and cannot take care of themselves."

While Shen Qiuge was rescuing people, Zhao Wencong tied the two people who had acupuncture points with ropes and stuffed their mouths with rag strips, but his mind was not calm at all now.
He was very curious why?Qiu Ge could talk to these women without changing his expression, but it was so rude to look disheveled. Anyway, he couldn't do it. He didn't know where to look, so he could only stand outside in embarrassment and look at the two people. Watch and don't let them escape,
