He was so injured that he could not move at all. However, it was an orphan girl who saved him. It was Advisor Ma who brought him back to the county office.

It was also from his conversation with Rooster that he knew that Madam Li and the others were fine.

Afraid that the target would be noticed by the men in black, he did not dare to send people to search openly. He only sent his trusted aides to search in secret.

They had also encountered a few men in black. Not to mention the casualties, it also meant that they had yet to find Madam Li and the others.

Fifteen minutes later, Shen Yijia and Song Jingchen came out of the study.

Song Jingchen’s clenched fists never let go. As soon as Emperor Chong’an’s imperial edict was issued, something happened at home.

It seemed that the person who did not want him to return to the capital had made two preparations.

Some people guarded the outskirts of Anyang County to kill him, while others went to capture Madam Li. If the assassination failed, they could use Madam Li as blackmail.

This was his guess. There might be two groups of people.

The five of them split up.

South Wind and Thirty Thousand went to Qingping Town, while Song Jingchen prepared to enter the mountain to search again.

If they were hiding people, the first thing Song Jingchen thought of was the basement where South Wind and the others were imprisoned.

If they weren’t there, he would look for Shopkeeper Wang, who might have news about them.

As for why Rooster and the others hadn’t contacted Fan Mingyuan, it wasn’t difficult to understand. When Song Jingchen was in Xiagou Village, he wasn’t close to Fan Mingyuan.

It was understandable that they did not trust him.

Fan Mingyuan knew this very well.

After this commotion, it was already seven o’clock when they returned to Xiagou Village from the county city.

Furball spun around the courtyard door angrily. It pounced on Shen Yijia as soon as she got off the horse.

It couldn’t even crawl into its exclusive tiger hole. Wasn’t it big enough? How could its unscrupulous master ignore it?

Because it was angry, it used all its strength in this pounce. The three horses behind it neighed in fear.

Shen Yijia was worried about Madam Li and the others. When she saw something pounce on her, she subconsciously raised her leg and kicked it.

Furball flew out with a howl of pain.

Shen Yijia was speechless.

Furball was speechless. It wanted to bite this woman to death. It wanted to betray its master.

However, it could only think about it. If it really attacked, Shen Yijia would probably turn it into a tiger meat hotpot.

If Madam Li and the others were still in the mountains, they would have to find them before the men in black did.

Shen Yijia took out their clothes for Furball to sniff.

Unfortunately, these clothes had already been washed. Coupled with the fact that too much time had passed, Furball could not smell anything.

“Hubby.” Shen Yijia called out to Song Jingchen, who was walking in front without saying a word.

Although Song Jingchen had been very calm, Shen Yijia knew that he was the one who was most worried about Madam Li, Brother Hao, and the others.

Song Jingchen paused and turned around. “What’s wrong? Are you tired? Why don’t you go back and rest first?”

He remembered that she did not sleep well last night because of the assassin. She was also very excited in the carriage during the day, so she did not rest.

His voice was as calm as ever.

Shen Yijia puffed up her cheeks and took a few steps forward.

She tiptoed.

She kissed him gently on the chin.

She met Song Jingchen’s stunned gaze.

She scratched her head. “I’m comforting you.” She really wasn’t trying to take advantage of him this time.

Song Jingchen forced a smile and rubbed her head. “Mother and the others will be fine.”

“Yes.” Shen Yijia nodded seriously and suggested, “This mountain is too big. Even if they’re really still in the mountain, we don’t know their exact location, so let’s search separately.”

“You…” This was naturally the best solution, but what if Shen Yijia encountered wild beasts or men in black?

Shen Yijia knew what he was worried about and waved her hand indifferently. “Hey, it’s not like you don’t know that I used to run in these mountains. There’s no area around here that I’m not familiar with. I’m not afraid of anything.”

Shen Yijia waved her fist, but Song Jingchen frowned.

She blinked and retracted her fists. “I can run if I really meet them. I can run very fast.”

Song Jingchen pursed his lips and finally nodded.

“I shouldn’t always treat Shen Yijia as a delicate flower that needs protection. If I did that, would she still be Shen Yijia?” he thought.

The two of them each picked a direction. Furball led the way for Song Jingchen, while Shen Yijia brought Mo Yuan.

Back when the spiritual liquid still needed medicinal herbs to upgrade, Shen Yijia and Furball had almost flipped through the nearby mountains. She knew exactly where the caves were.

Apart from her and Furball, there was another person in the family who knew very well. It was Lin Shao, who had accompanied her several times.

There was only a little light from the hazy moonlight shining through the treetops. However, this did not affect Shen Yijia’s speed in the forest.

If not for the fact that she was afraid that Mo Yuan would not be able to keep up, she could have been faster.

Even if she deliberately slowed down, she could hear Mo Yuan’s increasingly heavy breathing.

Shen Yijia turned around and glanced at her.

However, before she could speak, Mo Yuan said, “Miss, don’t worry about me. I can follow you.”

She had been learning all kinds of things since she met that lady at the age of five. Her physique was actually stronger than many people. It could only be said that Shen Yijia was too abnormal.

Shen Yijia pursed her lips and swallowed her words.

As they walked deeper into the mountains, they passed five or six caves. They did not even find any traces of anyone there, let alone living people.

Shen Yijia did not know if it was her imagination, but she felt that the small animals in the mountains would run away when they saw her from afar.

It was just strange. She wasn’t here to hunt today.

However, their memories were really good.

“Wait.” Shen Yijia’s expression suddenly froze and she stopped in her tracks.

“Miss, what’s wrong?” Mo Yuan asked.

Shen Yijia frowned and asked, “Did you hear that?”

The rustling of leaves in the wind was endless. Apart from these sounds…

“What did you hear?” Mo Yuan’s voice stopped abruptly. “It’s the sound of fighting.”

“Right.”

Shen Yijia’s pupils constricted and she ran in the direction of the fighting.

The distance was too far, and the sound of the leaves covered it. She almost missed the subtle sounds of fighting.
