My Youth Began With Him

“A pregnant woman? I haven’t seen any,” the old grandma said in an unfriendly manner.“Why waste time talking to her? Hurry up and search around,” the human trafficker said as he barged in.

The old grandma’s house was run down and small. After going around two rounds and not finding anything, they were about to leave.

However, someone suddenly found the old shed in the backyard amongst the darkness.

“What is that?”

“A storage shed,” the old grandma said.

“Hei, go search it,” the boss said, obviously because he was too scared to go in. With his position in power, he made his subordinates go instead.

The young man was rather brave and walked over into the darkness, with the old grandma behind him.

The shed was small and only had old and worn out farming tools and an old water tank.

“What is this?” Hei asked curiously as he was about to reach to open the water tank.

Huo Mian covered her mouth and tried to hold her breath. She was so nervous that her heart felt like it stopped beating.

Just when he was about to open it, the old grandma hit him with a feather duster.

“You old witch, what are you doing?”

“You can’t touch this. Don’t you see the red cloth? Inside are sacrifices for the Weasel God. There are dead chicken and ducks in there. I won’t stop you if you really want to open it but don’t blame me for not warning you if you infuriate the Weasel God and he punishes you.”

Hei was rather scared when he heard the old grandma say this.

In the north, there were two gods. One was the great fox god and the other was the great yellow weasel god.

The older generation believed this firmly, especially since they were in rural China. When this man heard the story, he was rather scared.

If the Weasel God really were to punish him, he would be doomed. That was why he did not have the guts to open the tank and hurried out of the shed.

“How was it? Did you find anything?” the boss asked.

“No, there’s nothing.”

“Let’s go to the next house.”

After the gang left, Huo Mian was finally able to jump out of the water tank.

“Are you alright?”

“I’m alright.”

“Oh my, they want to capture you.”

“Grandma, let me tell you the truth. I was originally captured by them and they wanted to sell me but I escaped.”

Huo Mian didn’t want to lie to the old grandma anymore because she was a good person and had also helped her.

“Such devils! They wouldn’t even spare a pregnant woman and her child. You really should leave tomorrow morning.”

“Grandma, tomorrow is too late. I must go now.”

Huo Mian was scared that the person that was willing to pay the large sum would come soon. Then it would be too late.

“It’s dark. Where are you going to go? It’s not safe. Their people are everywhere outside. If you leave now, they’ll catch you.”

The old grandma was old but her mind was clear.

“Grandma, didn’t you say your neighbor had a cellphone. I want to borrow her cellphone to call my family so they can pick me up.”

“Sure. I’ll take you to Guihua’s house.”

Huo Mian and the old grandma waited until the human traffickers finished searching the whole village and gave up without any findings.

Guihua’s house was very close to the old grandma’s. It was probably just 50 meters apart. After a short walk, they arrived at a worn-down house.

There were signs of people living there and there was a white SUV parked outside.

“It seems like they have guests over,” Huo Mian mumbled.

She was worried that the probability of her location being exposed would increase because of the larger amount of people. Just when Huo Mian wanted to leave with the old grandma, someone opened the door of Wang Guihua’s house.

A young woman walked out with a roasted potato in her hand. She was savoring the taste.

“Zeng… Rou…?” Huo Mian said in shock. The woman that walked out was Zeng Rou.
