Fully Leveled Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 1672: Chapter 1672: Meng Yunzheng Picks a Girl

The mountain bandit laughed heartily and walked forward.

Shu Yu lagged two steps behind, stood beside Meng Yunzheng, and asked, “Who was that person just now?”

“Ms. Tao’s brother.”

Shu Yu’s eyes widened suddenly. The Tao Family was caught in this black market long ago?

She recalled what Tao Feili had said earlier and asked in a low voice, “Is it related to him that Uncle was captured?”

“Most likely.”

Shu Yu glanced back and hesitantly asked, “Should we find a chance to ask him for more details?”

Meng Yunzheng thought the same at first, but after seeing Tao Feili frightfully wet his pants, he dismissed the idea.

Inside the black market, they tread carefully with every step, fearing detection.

Someone like Tao Feili would probably attract attention by screaming after being asked just a couple of questions.

If he recognized them, he might grab onto the rare chance of survival. If not, he might ruin it and expose their tracks.

At this critical juncture, Meng Yunzheng didn’t want to take that risk.

“Let’s see how it goes first. If we have no other choice, then we’ll approach him.”

Shu Yu nodded, saying no more.

They followed the mountain bandit further inside; the path was quite long.

“Up ahead is the last cell. It’s all women in there; I doubt the person you’re looking for is there.” The mountain bandit said, yet continued forward.

He had told the gatekeeper he came to find women, which was an excuse, but he thought he might as well take a look.

Shu Yu was a bit puzzled, “Why are the women kept all the way inside?”

The mountain bandit chuckled, “Of course, it’s to intimidate them. Some girls just won’t settle down. They have food and drink and work in the black market; if they do well, they can gain favor from a steward and even get their own place. But some just don’t get it and scheme to leave. This makes them see the stark consequences for trying to escape here.”

These girls, when returning to their cells each day, pass by the earlier cells and see the miserable states of others.

The black market’s steward wants them to know the grim fate of those who disobey.

Shu Yu pressed her lips tightly together, saying nothing more.

Soon, they stood outside a cell.

There were four or five cells holding women. The conditions were slightly better, with a large bed platform and even a wardrobe for them. They likely wanted the girls to tidy up a bit, so they wouldn’t look too bad when taken out.

However, at this moment, they were all leaning on the large bed platform, without makeup products, not dressed in luxurious clothes, and their faces were worn and emaciated beyond concealment.

These girls had clearly suffered tremendously.

Not to mention the cells had walls on three sides, but the front was just empty wooden bars, offering no privacy at all.

Shu Yu’s frustration piled up inside her, practically suffocating her.

Just as she turned away, Meng Yunzheng, beside her, suddenly reached out and pulled her.

She froze, turning back, and heard Meng Yunzheng pointing at a young girl inside the cell, “You, come out, and join us for some fun.”

Shu Yu, “…” Huh??

Even the mountain bandit next to them was stunned; he thought they were just here to make an appearance, pause for a few moments, and then leave.

What? Was he seriously planning to have a girl come out with them?

Didn’t he already have a girl by his side? Tsk, this person didn’t seem to be as decent as he appeared.
