Bai Shuang’s scream instantly attracted the attention of w.a.n.g Su who was nearby. He threw down the firewood in his hand and immediately ran towards the place where the sound came from.

’Help!” Bai Shuang had only taken two steps before she was pushed to the ground. She struggled to press the switch on her bracelet.

Bang! With a loud sound, the two men were instantly repelled by a powerful force.

When w.a.n.g Su reached the spot, he was just in time to see those two bodies streaking across the air.

“Bai Shuang, are you alright?”

When Bai Shuang saw w.a.n.g Su, she struggled to hold back her tears and said, “Those… those two people wanted to capture me.”

“Don’t be afraid. Stand here and don’t move. I’ll go take a look.”

…..

Bai Shuang acknowledged his instruction fearfully.

w.a.n.g Su drew out the saber at his waist and slowly walked over to those two people.

After the two men were sent flying by the repelling force, their bodies slammed heavily against the tree trunks.

When w.a.n.g Su went forward to take a look, those two people were not breathing anymore.

w.a.n.g Su looked around warily and only returned to Bai Shuang’s side after confirming that there was no one around. “I’ll bring you to Mistress first.”

Bai Shuang nodded with red-rimmed eyes. “If they can attack me, they will most likely attack others as well. You… you should go and take a look elsewhere later and see if Concubine Lin and the others are around.”

“Mm-hmm.”

Meanwhile, when Jiang Yang returned with the firewood, he didn’t see Lin Zhuyu. The only thing he saw in the wild vegetable field was the bamboo backpack that she had dropped.

Jiang Yang frowned at once. He threw the firewood on the ground and began searching.

“Concubine Lin, Concubine Lin.”

w.a.n.g Su was just bringing Bai Shuang back when he heard Jiang Yang shouting.

“Jiang Yang, who are you looking for?”

When Jiang Yang saw w.a.n.g Su and the rest come up, he frowned and said, “Have you seen Concubine Lin?”

“Isn’t she with you?”

Jiang Yang shook his head. “She said she was going to pluck wild vegetables here, so I went to gather some firewood. 1 didn’t see her when I came back.”

Upon hearing this, Bai Shuang’s face turned even more fearful. “Just now, two people suddenly jumped out to capture me. Could they have also captured Concubine Lin?”

When they heard that, the faces of Jiang Yang and the rest clouded over instantly. “Go and inform the Master and the Mistress. 1’11 continue to search around nearby.”

w.a.n.g Su nodded his head. “There are still other people. Get all of them to gather at the foot of the mountain.”

“Alright.”

At that moment, Su Ying was still immersed in the joy of fis.h.i.+ng. When she saw that the bucket was full of fish, she stopped in satisfaction. “Li Yong, you guys hurry down the mountain to catch them. I’ll release these fish down into the irrigation ca.n.a.l.”

She was worried that the fish would die before they reached the foot of the mountain if she transported them manually. It was different if they drove the fish down the water ca.n.a.l. The survival rate of the fish in the water was much higher if they used this method.

“Alright, we’ll go down now.”

“Mother, look at this fish. It’s so big.”

“That’s right. It’ll definitely taste good when it is used to make a sweet and sour dish.”

“Mistress, something has happened.”

Su Ying was accompanying her children to play with the fish when she saw w.a.n.g Su walking over with a panic-stricken Bai Shuang.

She slowly wiped the smile off her face and stood up. “What’s wrong?”

“Mistress, just now… just now when 1 was collecting firewood, two people suddenly jumped out to catch me. If it wasn’t for the self-defense weapon that Mistress left for me, 1 would have been caught by them.” Bai Shuang’s body trembled subconsciously as she spoke. What happened just now reminded her of the despair and terror she felt when she was captured by Mei Niang and her gang.

Su Ying held Bai Shuang’s hand. “Don’t be afraid. Everything’s fine now.”

Bai Shuang nodded with red-rimmed eyes.

“Mistress, when we came to look for you just now, Jiang Yang said that Concubine Lin seemed to have disappeared.”

Su Ying’s eyebrows twitched. She put the two guards from the Tiger Base in charge of releasing the fish into the irrigation ca.n.a.l while she picked up the two children and instructed w.a.n.g Su to push Xiao Jin down the mountain.

Jiang Yang and the others had been searching for the missing people at the foot of the mountain, but they still couldn’t find Lin Zhuyu and the others after searching once through.

“Mistress.”

Jiang Yang’s expression was very awkward. He had been with Lin Zhuyu at that time, but she had gone missing right under his nose.

“How is it?”

Jiang Yang shook his head. “No, 1 haven’t found them. They just discover that Zhang Cuiniang and Sheng’er are missing too.”

“w.a.n.g Su, go to the fields and tell Number One and the others to come up. Get them to follow Jiang Yang up the mountain to join in the search.”

“Yes, Ma’am.”

“I’ll come back after 1 send the children back. Bai Shuang, come back with me.”

Bai Shuang nodded.

After Su Ying sent the children home, she prepared to leave again.

“Su Ying, be careful.”

Su Ying turned to look at Xiao Jin and nodded. “Mm-hmm.” Su Ying walked out of the house and gave the alpha wolf leader, who was lying on the ground lazily, a kick. “Guard the house well.”

The alpha wolf leader howled in annoyance, but its body no longer lay around lazily. Instead, it stood up and gave its whole body of fur a shake. Thereafter, it surveyed its surrounding with its blazing eyes.

Su Ying rushed back to the foot of the mountain. Li Yong, Number One, and his group had also joined in the search for the missing people, but after searching once through, they still couldn’t find Lin Zhuyu and the rest.

“You guys continue to search nearby. I’ll go into the mountains to take a look.”

“Yes, Ma’am.”

As there were many people on the mountain today, it was difficult for Su Ying to tell if the footprints were left by her own people or by the other party. However, most of her people were at the foot of the mountain, so it was more likely that the captors went up the mountain after they captured the people.

Su Ying searched deep into the mountains. After walking for a while, she found something familiar in the vegetation in front of her. She quickly walked up to it and saw that it was the protective bracelet she had given Lin Zhuyu.

Her guess was right. The captors went this way.

Su Ying gripped the bracelet tightly and continued to walk deeper into the mountains. She discovered a small path that had been created from constant foot traffic.

She followed the path and walked down. In the end, she found herself back at the small slope on the back mountain behind her house.

Su Ying walked over and saw a farmhouse on the slope.

That farmhouses used yellow mud to form a wall that was as tall as half a person. One could see everything happening in the courtyard from the outside.

Su Ying walked up to the farmhouse and saw a familiar figure coming out of the house.

The other party raised her head and saw Su Ying as well. She was slightly surprised.

“So you live here.” Su Ying was the first to speak.

Lian Qiao didn’t expect Su Ying to find her way here. “Yes, I live here. What brings you here, Madam?”

“How’s your younger brother?”

Lian Qiao looked into the room and said with a smile, “Madam, thanks to all of you for saving his life. My younger brother is much better now ever since we came back.”

“You guys left in a hurry just now, so I didn’t know your younger brother’s actual condition. 1 know some medical skills. If you don’t mind, 1 can go in and check your younger brother’s pulse. After all, when the water gets into the lungs, there may not appear to be anything wrong at first, but after a long time, he may become sick.”

Lian Qiao wanted to reject Su Ying, but she was also worried about her younger brother’s condition. So, she let Su Ying into the courtyard.

“Then 1’11 have to trouble you, Madam.”

“I’m Su Ying.”

“Madam Su.”

Su Ying entered the courtyard and quickly scanned the area in the courtyard.

There were a total of three rooms in the courtyard. One of them was the hall that could be seen right through. The other two rooms were side rooms for sleeping, and both room doors were shut.

“Madam Su, my younger brother is here.”

Su Ying put aside her thoughts without any expression and followed Lian Qiao to the room on the right..
