The Fierce Farm Girl Has A Secret Space

Chapter 1172: Chapter 1172: Basement (5)

”There must be places we haven’t discovered yet,” Yang Ruxin’s eyebrows furrowed, ”I have a feeling that there are definitely more than these four children in here...”

The dead soldier Wei Zi had mentioned before that people were usually sent to the Resurgence Hall every three days, but how they were transferred away from there remained a mystery.

”Miss, we caught one alive.” Just then, Du Juan and Shadow Three came over, dragging a man with them and threw him on the ground.

Yang Ruxin smiled, it was the very same young attendant from the Resurgence Hall.

However, at this time, the young attendant was kneeling on the ground, trembling all over, no longer displaying his previous arrogance.

”Speak, where are the children?” Fang Dehua demanded fiercely.

Although the young attendant was shivering, he still shook his head: ”I know nothing.”

”Slap him.”

The arrest officer Xie Zhanfei stepped forward and delivered two slaps to the young attendant’s face.

”I really don’t know...” the young attendant was still stubborn.

”No matter.” Yang Ruxin took out a small porcelain bottle and threw it to Xie Zhanfei, ”Officer Xie, sprinkle this on him, let’s hope he can stay tough...”

Xie Zhanfei nodded, opened the small bottle, and sprinkled its contents over the young attendant.

The young attendant initially had a defiant demeanor, but it only took a moment for him to start showing an expression of agony, then began scratching all over himself, to no avail, his exposed skin was scratched bloody, yet the itching seemed to become even more intolerable...

”If you don’t talk, within four hours, you’ll scratch yourself to death,” Yang Ruxin sneered, ”Actually, whether you talk or not doesn’t really matter anymore. Now that we’ve found the location, we’ll dig three feet into the ground if we have to in order to find them, but you...”

”I’ll talk...” The young attendant wasn’t a dead soldier; he was only pretending to be tough for a moment. How could he withstand the torment of feeling worse than dead at this moment?

Only then did Yang Ruxin stuff a medicine pill into his mouth.

”I don’t know where the people on this estate are, but those who were just captured are in Resurgence Hall’s underground chamber...”

”Quick, to the Resurgence Hall.” Yang Ruxin’s complexion suddenly changed.

Gu Qingheng wasted no time, picked her up, leapt onto a horse, and sped towards the Resurgence Hall, with the others hurriedly following behind.

The Resurgence Hall was already devoid of its previous orderliness, it looked as if it had been ransacked, with the attendants nowhere to be seen and even two of their corpses lying on the ground.

Paying no attention to these, Yang Ruxin and Gu Qingheng found Gai Datong’s bedroom according to the attendant’s directions. Sure enough, when they moved one of the Bogu Racks, an entrance to an underground passage appeared.

”I’ll go down first,” Du Man came over.

”None of you will do, in case there is toxic smoke inside, none of you will withstand it,” Yang Ruxin shook her head, ”I have Xiaolun and Xiaoyin with me, nobody can harm me...”

”Xinxin, I should go down first, in case there are hidden weapons...”

”Qingheng, you trust me, don’t you? Then you have to have unwavering trust. I won’t be harmed by any hidden weapon...” Yang Ruxin took Gu Qingheng’s hand, ”Wait for my signal before coming down...”

Gu Qingheng wanted to say more, but Yang Ruxin had already entered, not even taking a torch with her.

Yang Ruxin moved quickly; having gone deep into the passage which sloped downwards for quite a length, then suddenly it was alight, as two oil lamps were burning on the stone walls along the sides. However, the smoke emitted from the lamps was poisonous.

”Help...” At that moment, weak calls for help came from the stone chamber next door.
