C375 Missing

When Magistrate Ma saw the Village Chief's expression change, his heart was thumping hard. Did something really happen?

He told the village chief to go to the house of the middle-aged man who was leading the way.

The village chief shook his trembling hands and ordered his eldest son to find someone at the wooden house.

The village chief's eldest son also knew the seriousness of the situation. With a "yes", he turned around and ran.

"Master Ma, nothing will happen to County Magistrate, nothing will happen to County Magistrate." It was unknown if this sentence was meant to comfort Magistrate Ma, or to comfort himself.

What if something happened to County Magistrate in Wutong Village?

The more he thought about it, the more frightened the Village Head became. He held his hands behind his back as he walked around the house.

Magistrate Ma was so dizzy from walking, he frowned, stood up, walked to the door with large strides and forced himself to calm down.

He couldn't panic, absolutely couldn't panic. If he panicked, then who was going to take charge of the situation? Who can save the Lord?

As he thought of this, Magistrate Ma slowly calmed down. He raised his eyes to look at the Wu Tong Mountain, hoping that his master would be safe and sound.

After a long while, the Village Chief's eldest son ran back. When he saw Magistrate Ma, he shook his head and said to him, "Thank you."

Not back yet?

Magistrate Ma's heart skipped a beat and he pinched his palm hard. He turned around and looked at the village chief, telling him to send someone to look for the lord, he wanted to go back to the yamen to transfer some yamen runners.

The village chief nodded his head repeatedly, seeing that after Magistrate Ma left, he ordered his sons to call for the villagers, preparing to look for the people in the mountain.

"Father, are we really going to go up the mountain to look for someone? Weren't there wild beasts roaming around the mountain? " The village chief's third son frowned and asked the village chief.

The village chief slapped the back of third son's head and scolded: "Master lost it on the mountain, do you want to look for it?" The Lord was not an ordinary commoner. How could he not be anxious when she disappeared from Mount Wutong?

Not to mention the wild beasts that roamed the mountain, even if there were mountains of blades and seas of fire, he still had to go find someone.

The village chief took a deep breath and went to get a machete. He also told his sons to bring the hoes and self-defense weapons and go with him up the mountain to look for someone.

When the villagers of Wutong Village heard that the County Magistrate had been lost in the Wutong Mountain, the men of the village took their fellows and torches to the village chief's house. They prepared to follow the village chief up the mountain.

Before Magistrate Ma had brought the bailiffs over, the villagers of Wutong Village followed the Village Chief up the mountain in a grandiose manner.

They only had one thought in their mind, and that was to get their lord back.

He was a good man, and they couldn't stand by and watch him get into trouble.

… ….

"Why isn't Zhi Moge back yet?" Li Qingling said worriedly. She reached out his hand to rub his eyes that had jumped for an entire afternoon, feeling a little uneasy.

Mr. Luo glanced at Li Qingling, telling her not to worry, nothing will happen to Liu Zhimo.

Liu Shi was protecting him by Liu Zhimo's side, how could something happen?

Mr. Luo was not worried, and continued to drink his tea leisurely.

Ever since she had gotten pregnant, Liu Zhimo had always been punctually returning home to accompany her to eat. She couldn't help but be worried when he still hadn't returned home this late tonight.

"Girl, what are you worried about? Maybe Mo Er got stuck somewhere and came back late. " Seeing Li Qing Ling's restless manner, Mr. Luo sighed and advised her softly.

After Li Qingling became pregnant, his emotions changed and he would easily cry. He didn't dare say anything harsh and made her cry.

Hearing that, Li Qingling forced a smile towards Mr. Luo, saying that she knew.

Although she said so, her anxious expression did not ease.

She puckered her lips and pulled at the kerchief, praying for Liu Zhimo to return safely.

She did not want to be so worried, but when she thought of Liu Zhimo, being locked up by the villagers of Wutong Village, she could not calm down.

Seeing Li Qingling so anxious, Mr. Luo waved his hands at her, telling her to go back to her room and rest. Don't force yourself, it's not good for his children.

Hearing the word 'child', Li Qingling calmed down a little. She shook his head at Mr. Luo and said, "She's not tired yet.

If she did not see Liu Zhimo returning safely, she would not be able to sleep even if she returned. It would be better to stay here and chat with Mr. Luo, to distract her attention.

Seeing that she was so stubborn, Mr. Luo did not force her and let her be.

After an unknown period of time, as if a week had passed, Nian Xia ran in with messy footsteps. That tall threshold nearly made her fall.

After she stabilized her body, she reported to Li Qingling, Magistrate Ma is here.

Magistrate Ma is here?

Li Qingling was a little agitated as he let Magistrate Ma in.

Her silly look made Mr. Luo extremely speechless. Sometimes she would laugh, sometimes she would cry, what was she thinking?

After Magistrate Ma respectfully saw Mr. Luo and Li Qingling, he said with a head full of sweat, Liu Zhimo had disappeared.

What?

Liu Zhimo disappeared?

Li Qingling opened his eyes wide and looked at Magistrate Ma in a daze, asking him what was going on? Let him tell it in detail.

How could he have disappeared for no reason? Didn't they go to the Wutong Village?

Magistrate Ma reproached himself in the end and asked Li Qingling to send the guards to search with him.

Moreover, the guards of the County Magistrate family had powerful martial arts. If he could go with them at a certain time, wouldn't he be afraid of encountering danger?

After Li Qingling heard it, he quickly sat on the chair, fiercely closed his eyes, and forced the tears in his eyes back.

She couldn't cry, she had to support her family.

She wiped the corner of her eyes fiercely and asked Nian Xia to call Ling Yi over. She had something to announce.

Nian Xia responded as she ran over to call Ling Yi.

Ling Yi arrived extremely quickly, and without waiting for him to speak, Li Qingling told him the whole story, and told him to bring the guards to find Liu Zhimo at the Wutong Mountain.

After it was dark, there would be beasts in the mountain. They had to find Liu Zhimo quickly and not let anything happen to him.

Ling Yi said with a stern expression. After he left, he did not take long to gather all the guards at home. After looking around, he felt that there were not many people so he called Liu Family soldiers over.

Looking at the crowd, he quickly told them what had happened and let them be mentally prepared.

When the Liu Family soldiers heard this, his whole body trembled. They came here to protect the Lord. If anything were to happen to the Lord, then they …

"Alright, let's go." The soldier nodded without hesitation.

Ling Yi acknowledged them, and asked Magistrate Ma to lead the way, they wanted to rush to Wutong Village immediately.

"Grand Master, tell me, will Zhi Moge be alright?" Hearing Magistrate Ma's words, Li Qingling's heart became even more anxious, and did not know what to do.

If she was not pregnant, she would have definitely followed the guards to Wutong Village to look for someone.

Those who were waiting at home for news were suffering the most. Li Qingling could no longer sit still, so he stood up and walked around the room.

Although Mr. Luo was anxious in his heart, he did not reveal it on his face. He was afraid that if he revealed it, it would cause Li Qingling to be even more uneasy.

He pretended to be calm, and said that nothing would happen to Mo Er, for how could anything happen to him with Liu Shi by his side?

These words were said to console Li Qingling, and also to comfort himself.

Unfortunately, Li Qingling was not comforted by him and continued to walk around the room anxiously.

She thought about it for a long time, then nervously suggested that she should let Ah Huang go to the Wutong Mountain and help find someone.

"You can't, it will cause panic among the villagers of Wutong Village, you can't let Tiger go." Mr. Luo was firmly against it. He glanced at Li Qingling and said, "If any guards go with Liu Family soldiers, they will bring Mo Er back. You can stay at home and wait patiently."

Li Qingling heaved a heavy sigh, turned around and sat on the chair, laughed bitterly and said.

If Ah Huang appeared on the Tong Mountain and was seen by the villagers of Wutong Village, they would definitely be scared.

Since he couldn't use Tiger, he could only wait for the good news from the guards.

After four hours, and there was still no news of her return, Mr. Luo's heart sank even more. He raised his head to look at Li Qingling, telling her to go back and rest.

Li Qingling really wanted to stay and wait for more news, but seeing Mr. Luo's expression, he knew Mr. Luo would not agree with her staying, so he nodded helplessly, and with Xi Chun's help, he returned to the room.

She lay on her bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. She was worrying about Liu Zhimo, and did not know how he was doing. Was he lost or in trouble?

At this time, Liu Zhimo was in an unprecedented predicament. He frowned and told Liu Shi to let him go, he could leave by himself.

Liu Shi let out a heavy sigh. He could no longer hold on and gently put Liu Zhimo down.

"Lord, can you?"

Liu Zhimo bit his lower lip and said that he could.

He turned his head to the side and glanced at the pale Liu Shi.

He never would have thought that he would encounter a killer on the Wutong Mountain. If not for Liu Shi escaping with his life on the line, he would have been dead by now.

"Milord, it was this subordinate that did not protect you well." Liu Shi's expression was very cold, who knew who invited the Unholy Killer to hunt him down?

Liu Zhimo pursed his lips, saying that it was not his fault, but the enemy was too strong.

The odds were against us today.

He hadn't seen his child being born yet, so he really didn't want to die just like that.

After the two of them staggered along for a while, Liu Shi finally discovered a cave with his sharp eyes. He supported Liu Zhimo as they walked in and he gave Liu Zhimo a deep glance, "Master, you stay here, I will lure them away." Even if he were to lose his life, he had to ensure Liu Zhimo's safety.

Liu Zhimo reached out and grabbed Liu Shi's hand, his mouth moving slightly. In the end, he said, "Come back alive."

Liu Shi nodded, turned around and walked out. He covered up the concealed hole, and after cleaning up the bloodstains on the outside, he quickly walked in the opposite direction.

Liu Zhimo tore off his robe and bandaged the wound on his leg. He was afraid that the smell of blood was too strong.

After finishing everything, he leaned against the wall and closed his eyes.
