I have 99 innate treasures

Chapter 142 Yao Qingqing (Part )

Yao Yuqing stood on the top of the mountain outside Baihong Mansion like a stone sculpture for two days, but she never figured out the reason.

She simply stopped thinking about it, went down the mountain, transformed into an old woman, and entered the city.

The reason why Baihong Mansion is a 'mansion' is not only because it has sixty-eight counties under its jurisdiction, but also because it is a town where officials are directly dispatched by the imperial court.

It was noon, and the smell of food filled the streets.

Yao Yuqing walked slowly on the street, looking around with interest.

About half an hour later, she suddenly felt something in her heart. She was guided by someone from somewhere, and turned east and west into a dead and deserted street.

Although there are shops on both sides of the street, all the doors and windows are closed, and there is no bustling and bustling scene like other streets.

As far as the eye can see, there are houses hanging with white flags.

Whenever the wind blows, the white paper money all over the street will fly, and the white flags will sway gently.

Yao Yuqing narrowed his eyes slightly when he saw this.

Yao Yuqing thought about this in her mind and followed slowly.

But she didn't find anything special about this girl.

Yao Yuqing's heart couldn't help but move.

Baihong Mansion not only has the Demon Suppression Department, but also the prefect and government officials are all highly skilled. How could so many people die?

Yao Yuqing noticed at first glance that there was a weed stuck in the girl's messy hair.

On the dusty floor of the main room, there were two corpses, a man and a woman, wrapped in straw mats, with only their feet exposed.

And because the literacy rate of ordinary people is low and the dialects vary from place to place, putting a piece of grass next to the product has become a certain rule.

Since ancient times, poor people or wealthy families who have been unable to survive have sold valuable things.

"Where is she going to sell herself?"

There are some vegetables planted in the open space on the left side of the yard, but because no one has taken care of them some days, although there are a few short vegetable seedlings emerging from the soil, they have withered and withered.

The little girl with straw in her head represents that she is a commodity.

The walls of the three houses in the courtyard are all made of adobe, and the roofs are covered with tiles. They look old.

What surprised Yao Yuqing the most was that she secretly felt that this little girl would be very important to her.

Then he used his spiritual sense to explore the courtyard.

At this time, after the little girl walked out of the courtyard, she did not close the courtyard door, but walked in the direction where Yao Yuqing came from in despair.

"Are these her parents?"

She was probably only seven or eight years old, and her eyes were full of confusion.

She, who has stayed in the world anonymously for many years, naturally knows the meaning of having grass on her head.

The entire courtyard is rectangular in shape, covering an area of ​​approximately fifty square meters.

"This is……"

Just when she felt strange in her heart, she saw a little girl in ragged clothes walking out of a courtyard with her head hanging down.

Not long after, the little girl walked out of the street and came to the bustling street.

Yao Yuqing noticed that when the people around saw the little girl walking out of the dead street, they all subconsciously stayed away from her.

"It looks like something must have happened on that street, and many people know about it."

When she was thinking about this, the little girl had walked far away with her head lowered.

Yao Yuqing subconsciously speeded up her pace.

About half an hour later, the little girl walked into an alley, and there was only an ordinary wooden door in the entire alley.

This means that the entire alley is the wall of a certain courtyard.

At this time, the little girl came to the wooden door, opened her mouth wide, and took deep breaths several times before she had the courage to stand on tiptoes, grab the copper ring on the door, and knock on the wooden door.

"Bang bang—"

Not long after the voice sounded, a middle-aged woman with heavy makeup and gorgeous flowers opened the door inwards. The woman seemed to know this little girl. The first time she saw her, she asked coldly.

"Have you figured it out?"

"Your parents and I are old acquaintances, and I would like to remind you that this is not a good place!"

After saying this with a mocking look on her lips, she shook her head invisibly.

"If there is a human world outside, this is hell!"

"After you enter here, you will never come out in your life!"

The little girl turned pale in fright at her words, but her face was already pale, and ordinary people couldn't tell the difference.

But Yao Yuqing saw it clearly.

The little girl took a few more deep breaths and said in a trembling voice: "Auntie, then, can you lend me some money to bury my parents?"

The woman sneered when she heard this and said, "Is it easy for you to earn money as an old lady?"

"If your mother and I hadn't known each other before, I wouldn't have said what I just said."

Go on, twist your waist to get out of the way, and say in a cold voice: "If you want money to bury your father or mother, it's useless to ask for help. You can only rely on yourself!"

After hearing this, the girl could only bite her lips and walked in.

Yao Yuqing, who had long since disappeared, sighed subconsciously when he saw this scene from a short distance away.

Even if she didn't use her spiritual sense, she could still hear the joyous sounds coming from the courtyard.

Obviously, the little girl wanted to sell herself into this brothel to bury her parents.

And this alley is the backyard of this brothel.

As the little girl walked through the door, the woman also closed the wooden door tightly.

When Yao Yuqing saw this, she just flashed and appeared directly in the courtyard.

I saw the woman reminding the little girl in a low voice.

"You must remember that when someone asks you where you are from later, you must not say that you are from Baihong Mansion, let alone tell her that you want to sell yourself to bury your parents."

"Your parents died due to the immortal's curse. If your mother knows about this, no matter how qualified you are, she won't buy it from you."

"Besides, if you say that, you will also implicate me."

The little girl nodded blankly.

When the woman saw this, she couldn't help but sigh.

She also experienced the little girl's confusion and helplessness at this moment.

She wanted to help her, but was powerless.

I can only think of this method.

After thinking of this, she asked: "By the way, what's your name?"

The little girl whispered: "My name is Qingqing."

After finishing speaking, she remembered what her parents had told her and added: "My full name is Yao Qingqing."

When she said her name, the woman just nodded.

But Yao Yuqing, who was hiding his figure, changed his expression.

"Yao Qingqing?"

She whispered this name that was extremely familiar to her, her expression becoming complicated.

Once, when she was young, her maiden name was 'Qingqing'.

She subconsciously took a deep breath, feeling more and more that this girl named Yao Qingqing must have a big secret hidden in her body.

And this secret is definitely related to her.
