The Ming Dynasty took an unconventional approach

Chapter 393 Stealing people
There were only three girls in the torture room. The youngest was about the same age as Pan Yun, and the other two were about fourteen or fifteen years old.

When Pan Yun walked in, the three of them were only exhaling, not inhaling.

I saw that there was not a single piece of good flesh on their bodies, and when I touched their hands and feet, they were all soft.

She couldn't help but frown. This was a way of attacking that was intended to kill people.

While Pan Yun was feeding them medicine, she called Tao Yanbai over.

Tao Yanbai took one look and said, "Uncle Junior, you have to give them some energy, otherwise they won't survive."

Pan Yun gave them some breathing space, left Tao Yanbai to treat them, and went to the other two rooms.

There were five girls in the confinement room, but there were quite a few who were being trained. Pan Jun searched the room and found eight of them.

When the girls heard Pan Yun say that he came to save them, they were half-believing and half-doubting, and they all covered their mouths and dared not cry.

Pan Yun gathered the people together and said, "Those who want to leave can follow me. Those who don't want to leave can stay. Don't be afraid. I will only knock them out and not let you have any evidence."

At this time, several people had their faces covered with cloth, leaving only their eyebrows and eyes exposed.

Pan Yun looked the most wrapped up because she was also wearing a hat.

The thirteen girls looked at each other and looked at Pan Yun warily, "Let's go with you, where are we going?"

Pan Yun: "Go back to your home, or go wherever you want. I can take you to the county government office to report to the authorities. By the way, if you don't want to go to the government office, I can take you out of the city."

The girls' eyes lit up, some looked at each other, suppressing their excitement, but some were terrified and clenched their hands, saying, "I, I was sold by my family. When I go back, my parents will sell me again."

Pan Yun: "Then don't go back. I will give you some money for the trip. Those who can't go back can stay together for a while, or go to live with other relatives."

The girls who were sold by their families looked confused. At this moment, they were even more bewildered than the girls who were trafficked or kidnapped, because they really had nowhere to go.

Pan Jun scratched his head and realized that he had thought too simply, but since things had been done, they had to be done well.

Besides, this is a matter of saving lives.

Pan Yun scanned their faces, hands and feet, and selected a few who were not so seriously injured and had enough strength. He split the bed into three parts, carried out the three seriously injured girls in the torture room and placed them on top of the bed, asking them to carry them and follow.

Xiaohong took off the talisman and floated in the front. No one could see her except Pan Yun.

Pan Yun walked in front to lead the way, Miao Zhenmiao and others surrounded the sixteen girls on the left and right, and Tao Yanbai was the rear guard.

Xiaohong swept around the yard like a gust of wind, then floated back and said, "There's no one in this yard."

Of course there was no one in the yard, and the only two people were knocked down by her.

Pan Jun waved at her, and Xiaohong rushed forward like a gust of wind.

The girl following behind Pan Jun couldn't help but shiver, feeling the wind was a bit cold.

There was a closed gate in front of them, so Xiao Hong could only float over the wall. After a while, she floated back and said, "There are a lot of people in front of us. People pass by from time to time."

Pan Yun nodded, motioned for everyone to wait a moment, then walked forward to unlock the door, opened it and looked out.

This was the courtyard connected to the front building. Pan Jun glanced over and saw faint sounds of stringed instruments and laughter coming from three rooms, but there were not many people in the courtyard. Only from time to time would someone pass by carrying wine, food, fruit plates, and snacks.

What surprised Pan Yun was that there seemed to be no thugs guarding this yard.

Xiaohong floated to Pan Yun's side and whispered in her ear, "Do you know this courtyard? It is usually used to entertain dignitaries. They enter and exit from the side door, so only the side door is open."

Pan Jun nodded and whispered, "You and Pan Xiaohei go to the front and help me watch. If anyone else comes to deliver something, help me stop them. If you can't stop them, let Pan Xiaohei tell me."

Xiao Hong: "What if I make a noise?"

"Just make a fuss. It's a good opportunity to relieve some of the pressure on my nephew."

Xiaohong understood and floated away.

Pan Yun said to Pan Xiaohei who had run off to some unknown place: "Go help Xiaohong."

This time, Pan Xiaohei was obedient. He responded and ran across the roof silently.

Pan Yun calculated the time. When another male turtle came out of the room with an empty tray, she stood up and said to the girl behind her, "Hurry up and don't make any noise. If you see that, go over there directly."

The girl behind her turned pale and asked tremblingly, "Lady, who were you talking to just now?"

"Mountain God."

The girls looked a little better and asked, "What mountain god?"

"Mr. Pan, the mountain god, remember to be grateful to him for saving you when you get out. Let's go." Pan Jun took the lead and walked in front, and the girl behind him hurriedly followed.

The girls were obviously also very scared. They followed Pan Yun closely, holding their dresses, and quickly crossed the yard to the side door.

Pan Jun didn't block and ran straight to the side door.

The two turtles guarding the side door were leaning against the door eating fried peanuts. While they were rubbing the peanut skins with their heads down, they looked up and saw a group of people appearing on the empty road.

The two were stunned and were about to ask questions when there were two slaps. The two rolled their eyes and fell to the ground together.

When the two were about to fall, Pan Yun pushed them, causing them to fall to the side.

She opened the door and looked out. Outside was an alleyway wide enough for a carriage to pass through. At this moment, there was no one outside.

Pan Yun opened all the doors and said sideways, "Go out, go that way."

The girls looked at the open side door, suppressed their excitement, picked up their skirts and ran out.

Pan Yun whispered, "Wait in front, Miaozhen, you go to the front and lead the way. If someone sees us, knock them out first, no matter who they are."

Miao Zhen agreed and led them into the alley. At this moment, two screams were heard in the yard, "Ghost!"

There was a lot of noise, and people were looking out from all directions and running over to watch the fun.

Xiaohong didn't mind at all. Seeing that everyone came to see, she simply floated upside down and floated directly in front of them. Then bloodstains instantly appeared on her face and body, exactly how she looked when she died.

"Damn it-"

Although screams were heard, Xiaohong floated up happily and laughed heartily. Through them, she finally experienced the joy of being a ghost.

Pan Yun and the others were not fun at all. Except for Tao Ji who was scared for a while, everyone else quickly accepted her and were not afraid at all.

Xiaohong flew up happily, floating across the yard, then floating back again, and even ran in front of people's faces and behind their backs, trying to scare people in any way possible.

The whole yard was filled with screams.

The madam came running over angrily, pushed the dumb people aside and squeezed in, shouting, "Who is playing tricks here? What are you yelling about?"

Xiao Hong suddenly hung down from the sky and looked straight at her.

There were screams from both sides and behind, followed by a few tumbling sounds, and someone fainted backwards.

The madam was just stunned for a moment, then waved her hand and hit Xiaohong in the face.

Xiaohong flew away quickly, avoiding her slap, and hung in the air, looking at her intently.

The madam rolled up her sleeves and pointed at Xiao Hong's nose and cursed, "Where did you come from, you unlucky ghost? I'll beat you to death!"

After saying that, he rushed towards Xiaohong.

Xiao Hong was stunned for a moment, then felt the murderous and fierce aura coming from her body, and immediately floated away.

Not to mention, even though she doesn't know any Taoist magic, ghosts are really afraid of her aura.

So, scolding ghosts can really drive them away.

But Xiaohong only hid for a while, could she be an ordinary ghost?
She flew around the madam, trying to lure her to beat her.

The madam said some dirty things, and Xiaohong was a little angry at first, but when she saw that she was panting and couldn't catch up with her, Xiaohong felt calm.

She quickly stood in front of the madam and grinned at her, "Aren't you afraid of me?"

The madam gnashed her teeth, her eyes fierce, "I'm not even afraid of people, so why would I be afraid of a ghost?"

"Look at your clothes and appearance. You look like a prostitute. You must be in our business, right? But I have never seen anyone like you in Wanchunlou. You have a culprit. Go find the one who killed you. Why are you ruining the business of Wanchunlou?"

The madam pointed at Xiao Hong's nose and cursed, "I'm giving you one chance. Get out of my sight right now, or I'll get a Taoist priest to take you in, and beat you to death!"

Xiaohong was silent for a moment, "Are you saying that I am also a flower lady?"

She rolled her hair on her chest with her fingers, thinking, "No wonder, I was wondering why I was so familiar with brothels and boats, it turns out I'm in this business."

Xiao Hong pulled up her thin red sleeves to cover her face and giggled. She flew to the madam and gently stroked her cheek. "Thank you, mother. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't know that I was a flower lady in my previous life. Hehehe..."

The madam felt her whole body turn cold because of her laughter. Before she could react, Xiaohong disappeared out of thin air.

The madam was stunned and stood stiffly for a while. She turned her head and looked around. After confirming that Xiaohong had really disappeared, she immediately turned back and smiled apologetically at the guests, "Everyone..."

Just as he opened his mouth, the guest who was still somewhat skeptical screamed and turned and ran away after witnessing Xiaohong's disappearance.

At this time, Pan Yun had already led all the girls out of the side door. She closed the door and then led them out of the alley.

Wang Cong and Hongyan also looted a lot of good stuff. Seeing people constantly running out from the backyard downstairs, shouting "There's a ghost, there's a ghost", he stuffed a heavy small box that couldn't be pried open directly into the space and said to Hongyan, "That's enough, let's go."

Hongyan took all the jewelry from the bedside table, and when she saw some beautiful cloth in the cabinet, she went forward to pick them up.

She can store things herself, so she just took it.

Wang Cong was about to leave with her when he saw the picture hanging on the wall and took it down.

It looks like an authentic work, never mind, just take it first.

The two men straightened their robes and quietly opened the door. Seeing that the entire Wanchun Tower was in chaos, the two men mixed into the chaos and ran towards the gate with everyone else.

The tortoise at the gate couldn't stop them and didn't notice them at all.

It was the fifth watch, the time when people were sleeping soundly. Even the bailiffs patrolling the streets had gone to sleep and no one knew where they had gone.

Pan Yun bypassed the night watchman and led them to an alley not far from the county government office.
