Chapter 201: We Are Free Now
With A Lu Yu’s excellent martial arts skills and A Lu Qian’s excellent concealing skills, the two easily killed the bandits before hiding the bandits’ bodies. They sneak around for more than ten minutes before arriving at the underground prison.
A Lu Yu said, "It’s here. Let’s find those women quickly and get out of here."
"Mhm." A Lu Qian nodded, and the two split up to find the kidnapped woman.
When A Lu Qian passed by the cell, he looked at the children who were locked in the cell. All of them looked listless and haggard. They sat motionless on the ground, like a battered doll. He looked into their empty eyes, unable to see any emotion.
Walking down the long corridor, A Lu Qian observed the children locked on the left and right cells. All of them have the same blank expression and empty eyes. Thinking of what Xu Xiang said back in the conference hall, he couldn’t help but clenched his hands tightly.
A Lu Qian went all the way to the end of the corridor, but he didn’t see any women locked up here.
’This prison seems to be specialized for imprisoning children. Then the other prison should be used to detain those kidnapped women.’
With that in mind, he turned around and walked towards the prison entrance. As he walked past the nearest cell with the entrance, he felt someone grab his left shoe. Instinctively, he pulled out his dual short swords and slashed at the hands holding his shoe.
"Sa..."
Hearing the weak voice, his movements stopped in mid-air immediately. He looked up and saw a boy clutching his shoe tightly with his thin hands. The boy slowly raised his eyes to look at him with difficulty.
"Sav... Save me..." He begged weakly in a hoarse voice.
A Lu Qian looked at the boy silently for a few seconds, then retracted his short swords. He knelt down, looked at the boy and asked, "Do you want to live?"
The boy’s throat was so sore that he could not speak, but the determination in his eyes could not conceal his desire to live. Looking at his eyes, A Lu Qian fell into deep thought. After a moment of silence, he stood up, then took a step back. The distance between the two was widened, and a gleam of despair flashed in the eyes of the boy.
He stretched out his right hand as far as possible, trying to reach A Lu Qian while murmuring: "Sa... Save me... Ple... Please sa... save me..."
Watching the boy struggling to grab his leg, A Lu Qian showed no expression on his cold face. After a moment of silence, he said, "Get up. If you can stand up by yourself, I will save you."
When the boy heard his words, his body froze immediately. A Lu Qian gave him a cold look, but did not help him. A few seconds later, the boy withdrew his hand and propped up his weak body with both hands.
Every movement he made made his body tremble in pain. Gritting his teeth, he exhausted all his strength and stood up. After struggling for a while, he finally stood up with his two trembling legs, leaning against the cold prison wall with heavy breathing.
Looking at his eyes full of determination, A Lu Qian’s eyes revealed a rare trace of tenderness. He calmly drew out his short swords and said, "Step back."
The boy took a few steps back with the cold wall as his support. A Lu Qian raised his short swords and slashed towards the cell door. The dual short swords that were injected with his internal energy, slashing the iron bars like tofu. In just a second, he had already cut through the locked iron door.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
A Lu Qian put away his weapons calmly and said, "Come out."
The boy stared blankly at the iron bars that had imprisoned him for a long time without moving. Seeing that he didn’t move and just stood there blankly, A Lu Qian turned around and left. When he walked away, the boy came to his senses and anxiously chased after him.
When he walked out of the cell, the boy couldn’t help but look back at the other cells. He bit the bullet, opened his lips and hoarsely said, "Yo...Young Master. Please... help my frie... friends."
A Lu Qian stopped, turned around and looked at the boy coldly. He stared at the boy and asked, "They don’t even want to save themselves. Why should I save them?"
Being asked such a question, the boy was speechless. He knew that the reason why this young man decided to help him was because of his desire to live. He also knew that this young man had no obligation to save them, but he really wanted to save his friends.
They have been through hell together and managed to survive until now. While most of his friends and companions died or lost their emotions in the process, he didn’t want to give them up. He promised them to take them out of this hell together.
A Lu Qian stood in front of the boy, observing his expression calmly. After a long silence, the boy raised his head and looked straight at A Lu Qian.
He said, "They listened to me. If you promise to save us, I will give you my life as a payment."
A Lu Qian thought for a moment and said, "Fine."
Seeing him walk into another locked cell and draw out his weapons, the boy knelt down on the cold stone ground, and hoarsely said, "Tha... Thank... you, Master."
A Lu Qian glanced at the boy, but didn’t say anything. He raised his short swords and began to cut the iron bars. It didn’t take long before he opened all the cells.
He put away his weapons and said, "Come out."
The children looked up at him and saw the opening in front of them. Seeing that they were not moving, the boy stood up with difficulty and said weakly: "Let’s go. We... are free... now."
