Bai Muming walked to Qixia Village, knocked on a door, and prepared to stay here.
The people in Qixia Village were not hospitable, and they did not intend to take the man in, but for the sake of money, they changed their minds. In fact, they planned to wait until he was asleep, steal his things, and then kill him.
"Young man, what's your name? Where are you going on this trip?" An old man asked.
"Old senior, I am Bai Muming, the eldest son of the Gusu Bai family pawnshop. This trip is planning to go to Beijing to obtain fame." Bai Muming said.
"The Bai family pawnshop? Are you the son of the Bai family, one of the four major families in the south of the Yangtze River?" A middle-aged man next to the old man was shocked when he heard this, "Your family is so rich, why do you still want to get fame?"
"You don't know, but today's world is dominated by scholars, farmers, industry and commerce. Although my family is rich, its status is very low. Therefore, my family all hopes that I can obtain a good name and bring glory to the family." Bai Muming said, with the flame of hope igniting in his eyes.
"Brother, let me tell you, you don't need to go to Beijing to take the exam. Today's officials are so stupid, can't you just use money to buy fame?" Said a young man about the same age as Bai Muming.
"No, that would be unfair to others!" Bai Muming said impassionedly. He looked around and found that the three people looked a bit similar, they should be the third generation (nonsense), but strangely, he did not find any women in the room.
Bai Muming's intuition told him that there was definitely something wrong with this family, and he definitely couldn't stay here tonight, but he didn't dare to say it clearly, so he had to excuse himself to go out for a walk and stay out of the family's sight.
Bai Muming discovered that not only this family, but also the entire village did not see any women. Bai Muming didn't know where all the women here had gone, but he understood that this kind of village without women was very scary, and he couldn't stay there for a moment longer.
He ran away desperately and lost his way unconsciously. He lay on the ground panting, no matter where he ran next, he had to rest first.
After calming down, Bai Muming heard the girl's cry, and the mystery in his heart was solved. Although he knew it was not the time to meddle, driven by curiosity, he still walked slowly following the sound. At the end of the sound he saw a small room, and when he looked through the bars of the window he saw the most horrifying sight of his life. Before he could scream, he was knocked unconscious by a sap.
