MTL - Take a Door with You-Chapter 53 Worry free!
Chapter 53 Worry-free!
"It's not a cellar?"
After coming down, Cao Xin realized that he had guessed wrong.
Come in from the entrance under the bed in the bedroom. It's not a cellar at all, but an underground passage. Going down the ladder to the bottom is a small space, about the size of a hut.
Further outside, there is a channel connecting.
Cao Xin took out the torch from the portable space, and went forward. After walking about seventy or eighty steps, it came to an end. If you look carefully, there is a secret door at the end.
Push open the hidden door.
It was pitch black.
"here it is-"
Cao Xinyi was a bold man, took a torch and looked around, and his heart was clear: "This is Wuyou Cave!"
…
"The ditches in Xijing are very deep and wide, and many refugees hide in them, which is called 'Worriless Cave'; what's more, women are stolen and hidden, which is called 'Ghost Fan Tower'. From the beginning of the country to the prosperous age, there are often, although talents cannot be eliminated. and also."
…
"Worriless Cave."
"Ghost Fan Tower."
The two are both mysterious and mysterious, and ordinary and ordinary.
The underground drainage system of Xijing City is deep and wide, and people can live in it. Many desperadoes hide in it. They call it the "Worriless Cave".
There are also some human traffickers who abducted women and children and hid them here, also known as 'Ghost Fan Lou'.
It has existed from the beginning of the Kingdom to the prosperous years. Although the imperial court often sends people to clear the payment, it cannot stop it.
With the passage of time and the evolution of the times, "Worriless Cave" has become synonymous with a place where dirt is hidden and lawless, and it is a place outside the law.
There are many villains hiding in it, chaotic and disorderly, a group of moles living in the dark.
Order collapsed.
The strong are respected.
Some people walk alone and fight alone.
Some people are lingering on their last days, vassalizing the strong.
There is also a strong alliance to become bigger and stronger.
Among them, the latter is the most famous one, which is the 'Ghost Fan Tower'.
"There are fan towers on the earth and in the world, which is a place of first-class enjoyment."
Fan Lou!
This is a very famous entertainment place in Xijing City. The building is three stories high and the fifth floor faces each other. It can accommodate thousands of people. They can eat and drink, sleep in flowers and sleep in willows. place. When outsiders enter the capital, if they don't go to Fanlou to play, they don't count as having seen the world.
The 'Ghost Fan Building' is named after this, so you can imagine what kind of place it is.
A group of vicious gangsters, based in Wuyoudong, specialize in illegal activities. Kidnapping children in the streets and alleys is commonly known as "patting Hanako". People who lost their children are anxious to find them, but as long as they take their children and escape into the underground tunnel, the child will be gone.
Even if the parents go to the government to report the crime, the government officials will not be able to find their dens.
As vast as the city of Xijing is, this 'Worriless Cave' is as big as it is. It extends in all directions, like an underground city.
The abducted children grew up in it and received the teachings of the "predecessors", and their three views were distorted.
Boys become beggars or pickpockets, and when they grow up, they become a new batch of go-getters in the "Ghost Fan Lou".
The fate of girls is even more tragic—
Those who are obedient are sold to the brothel above, and those who are disobedient are left underground. The same is done in the sale of fireworks and willow lanes.
The yamen at all levels in Xijing City and the five city soldiers and horses have to be cleaned up several times a year, but it is difficult to cause a heavy blow.
Too many difficulties!
The people of "Ghost Fan Tower" lived here for a long time, and they are very familiar with the terrain inside.
Secondly, in addition to channels, there is also an ancient city from the Warring States period underground in Xijing City. The folk song said-'Xijing City, the city is built on top of the city, and there are several cities buried underground', which undoubtedly increased the difficulty.
On the other hand, although there are many dens of thieves and criminals such as the "Ghost Fan Tower" in the "Worriless Cave", most of them are homeless poor people. To a certain extent, they are the hostages of the suspects, and the Yamen are afraid to push them too hard.
Furthermore, if the suppression is successful, what will happen to the people inside?
So many people suddenly appeared, and the court could not or would not take care of their food, clothing, housing and transportation, which would cause even greater chaos.
So, over time, let it go.
And these people in the "Worriless Cave" are also very knowledgeable, abducting children only looks for people with outstanding looks, and never for officials. If you commit crimes, you only dare to offend the people, not the government.
To a certain extent, it can be regarded as bullying.
However, there are also rumors that the 'Ghost Fan Tower' has collusion with the officials, there is a protective umbrella on it, a lot of money for filial piety, and the best 'skinny horse' donates every year, the background is not small.
Among the above-mentioned difficult points of suppression, the so-called 'innocent people', 'hostages', and 'resettlement', etc., I am afraid that these corrupt officials are making noise and dragging their feet.
…
"Bone Necrosis!"
"This is a stubborn disease!"
Cao Xin first heard the information about 'Worriless Cave' and 'Ghost Fan Tower' from Tang Miao. Later, after investigating by himself, he knew more and more that he wanted to wipe out 'Worriless Cave' and destroy 'Ghost Fan Tower'. No easy task.
The power of one person is even more slim.
"Break into the interior, maybe it can be done."
Mighty enemies are often easier to disintegrate from within.
Cao Xin didn't stay in the underground canal, and soon returned to the underground darkroom, and began to interrogate the two traffickers.
…
Dare to make love in Xijing City, these two people have the ability to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.
Cao Xin interrogated the two separately, and soon got to know them.
These two are not very old, in their early twenties.
The young man is called 'Li Liang', and the woman is called 'Ren Xiaomei', they are a couple. I have been in this business for four or five years, specializing in the sale of good-looking, smart and lively children, and I have made a lot of money.
But they are not considered direct descendants of 'Ghost Fan Lou', they can only be regarded as non-staff members. Above them is the regular army of Guifanlou—grow up in Guifanlou since childhood, most of them are Lianjiazi.
For example, Li and Liang's online 'Shi Chuang' is an official disciple of Gui Fan Lou.
Li Liang and his wife abducted the child in Xijing City, and sent it to the underground Wuyou Cave, and then their own 'Shi Chuang' came to join them and sent the child to the stronghold of Guifan Tower.
This is on the line.
In addition to this, Li Liang and Ren Xiaomei also had contacts with several beggars in Ma Xing Market. These beggars were also from Gui Fan Lou and belonged to Shi Chuang.
Each beggar has tens of hundreds of beggars, large and small, and finds children along the way while begging, and then passes the news to Li Liang.
Li Liang and Ren Xiaomei followed up and visited, waiting for an opportunity to start.
Succeeded and then delivered to Shi Chuang, sent to Guifanlou.
In this way, an industrial chain is formed.
…
"Shocking!"
Only Li and Liang, there were no less than 30 children abducted and trafficked in four or five years.
Think carefully and fear!
Think about it, for example, how many channels does Gui Fan Lou have in total? After one year, how many people will be harmed?
It's really shocking.
However, what is even more desperate is that even if human traffickers like Li Liang and Ren Xiaomei are caught, even if the identities of 'Shi Chuang' and the beggars who provided the information are found out by force, they can even be taken down by following the vine. , Kill.
But then, Gui Fanlou can easily launch another disciple, appoint a few more beggar heads, and find a few more human traffickers.
Comeback.
as usual.
Three or five manpower, one or two routes, this does not pose any threat at all to Guifanlou, which has a large family and many soldiers.
"How can we completely wipe it out?"
Cao Xin pondered for a while, and suddenly four or five plans popped up in his mind.
There are many ways.
There are light and heavy, urgent and slow, difficult and easy.
However, the specific operation needs to be further studied.
