Chapter 59: The Crime of Gender 59
Inside, where food was once stored, it now appeared like a scene from Purgatory!
The inside of the passageway had been constructed into the shape of a room. At this moment, the floor and walls of this room had been stained a purplish-black by the seepage of fresh blood, releasing a nauseating stench from both the floor and walls.
In a corner of the room, there was a heap of white bones! These bones appeared quite small and should all belong to children. Under the flickering torchlight, the pale bones emitted an eerie glow.
Not far from this pile of bones, there was a large square table. Fang Yaoyao, dressed in only a thin garment, was tied spread-eagle on top of it, her head thrown back deeply over the edge of the table, exposing a long stretch of her snow-white throat,
Beneath Fang Yaoyao’s head, there was a large wooden basin, inside which lay a razor-sharp sickle! It seemed to be used for bloodletting.
In the gaps of the wooden basin, it was stained with dark red clots of blood, which looked as if they had been congealed for a long time! They were already dry, solidified on the wooden basin. Bound to the table, Fang Yaoyao, her eyes tightly shut, was unconscious, her life or death unknown!
Fang Zhongyi and Qin Shuangshuang, without taking much time to think, rushed forward in a fluster to untie Fang Yaoyao’s hands and feet. Testing her breathing, it was a relief to find out that she had merely fainted, with nothing seriously wrong.
Qin Shuangshuang felt very angry inside, but she knew that Fang Zhongyi had a strong attachment to the Fang Family Village, and since she was not from there, it wouldn’t be appropriate for her to take any actions against the people of the village. She quickly dressed Fang Yaoyao and carried her home, leaving the aftermath for Fang Zhongyi to handle.
Fang Zhongyi was deeply worried about his daughter, especially having just experienced the fear of nearly losing her. He really didn’t want to part with Fang Yaoyao.
