My Wife Is A Miracle Doctor In The 80s - Chapter 228
Chapter 228: Chapter 221: Violently Breaking Down the Door
She was choking and sniffing, her heart full of sorrow. After great effort, she finally untied the ropes on Tang Yuxin’s hands.
Just as she was about to say something,
Tang Yuxin just shook her head at her, placing her finger on her lips.
Xu Miaomiao quickly covered her mouth, nodding in agreement, which was strange because she had been almost desperate when she was first brought here. She feared being sold, feared being locked in a tiny dark room to give birth, without food or drink, only beatings and scoldings.
But now, she didn’t fear anything at all.
She leaned her body closer to Zhi Yuxin, staying in this tiny room that was pitch-dark. She could smell all sorts of odours from the people around her.
Occasionally, footsteps could be heard from outside, and the door would also open.
Each time, Xu Miaomiao would be startled awake, time and again those people would come in, seemingly just to look at the captives inside, but they never laid a hand on them. Until one day, once the door opened, the light from outside was so blinding they could barely keep their eyes open.
Tang Yuxin pinched Xu Miaomiao’s arm.
Then she lowered her head, signalling Xu Miaomiao to do the same.
Someone walked by their cell, stopping right by them. At that moment, both Xu Miaomiao and Tang Yuxin became so anxious that they almost stopped breathing until the footsteps finally moved away. They both breathed a sigh of relief.
Then suddenly, a girl’s scream split the air. Tang Yuxin raised her head to see a girl slung over a man’s shoulder.
The girl was screaming, her voice already shrill, her legs flailing about.
Xu Miaomiao was terrified, she clung tightly to Tang Yuxin’s arm, her whole body trembling. It seemed that they could still hear the girl’s screams, pleas, and sobs.
And the sound of fabric being torn apart.
Tang Yuxin tightly gripped the small packet in her hand, her fingers clenched, never loosening.
Gradually, the sounds from outside lessened, replaced by the sound of snoring. Some were loud, others soft, like some strange ensemble making a symphony.
They had fallen asleep.
Yes, how could they not fall asleep? Their physical desires fulfilled, their bellies full, while Tang Yuxin and the others had been starved for three days, barely given water to drink, made to lap from the plates like dogs.
Their hands and feet were bound, even if nature called, they could only helplessly relieve themselves on their own clothes.
At this moment, the snoring became louder and more regular.
Tang Yuxin suddenly stood up.
Xu Miaomiao tried to hold onto her hand, tears streaming down her face.
She was afraid.
Tang Yuxin shook her hand free, and walked forward. She placed her hand on the door handle. The door was locked, and there was also a large iron lock on the outside. The lock was big, but the door seemed unsteady.
She peeked through the door gap, seeing three men lying on a wooden plank outside. Yes, exactly three men, always the same three. At this moment, they were sleeping soundly. One of them was half-naked, semi-sprawled on the ground. On the ground was a girl, her clothes torn to shreds, her body covered in wounds, especially her legs, where the sight of bloody marks was gut-wrenching.
Tang Yuxin gripped the door tighter, her heart aching. But she couldn’t save them, really couldn’t.
Opportunities only come once, and she had waited for the most appropriate one. Otherwise, the plight of the girl would be their own as well.
She took out the powdered drug from her pocket, then poured it out from under the door, before closing the door sharply.
Gradually, the snoring on the other side of the door lessened until it was nearly gone.
She opened the door again to find that the drug had been dispersed everywhere by the wind. There was a faint fragrance outside, but it was already very faint.
Tang Yuxin probably should be grateful for the door. The window outside was open, and the wind had blown away most of the powdered drug which was potent enough to knock out an elephant. Therefore, the effect was very weak when she smelled it now.
Maybe it was because she often dealt with herbs, so her resistance to drugs was stronger than that of others.
First, she gently pushed the door.
The people outside were still sleeping like logs.
Then she forcefully shook the door, the clattering sounds frightening the girls inside, making them sit anxiously, not daring to move.
“Untie them,” Yuxin turned around and told Xu Miaomiao, who was in a complete daze.
Meanwhile, she picked up a brick by the door and began to vigorously smash the door.
Miaomiao finally came to her senses and hastily untied the other girls.
Yuxin, on the other hand, kept striking the door with the brick, making a loud clattering noise. The door suddenly gave way with a loud bang, and the lock fell to the ground, intact.
By then, Xu Miaomiao had nearly finished untying the girls. They had started helping each other, and all the ropes had been untied.
Yuxin picked up a few ropes from the floor and walked out.
She had great faith in her own concoctions. The drug she prepared could knock these people out for at least four to five hours, so they still had time to escape.
She walked over and tied those men up. She also tied them all together, hoping to buy them some more time.
When she got to the man with the naked butt, Yuxin had a strong urge to kill him. He looked atrocious, no need to guess what he had done.
She tied him up tightly, bundling him up like a tumbling roll.
“Carry her,” Tang Yuxin pointed at the half-dead girl on the ground.
Two girls had already stepped forward to help the girl up.
At that moment, they were all waiting for Tang Yuxin’s next order. In this situation, a single word from Tang Yuxin seemed to carry the power to rescue them from this horrible den of wolves.
“We’re leaving,” Yuxin took Miaomiao’s hand and started to walk away, but Miaomiao stopped after a few steps.
“Yuxin, my foot hurts,” Miaomiao started crying. She lowered her head to look at her foot. She only had one shoe on, the other one was nowhere to be found.
