Qiu Yan was equally excited.

Persistence pays off, and she finally met Jiang Liu.

However, "Sister Jiang, ever since I sent you home that day, my second uncle has been missing. Do you know where he is now?"

“He’s been stuck in Huaiyuan these past few days, staying with us. Xiaoyan, don’t worry, your second uncle will be back soon.”

Qiu Yan breathed a sigh of relief, fearing she would hear that her second uncle had already passed away.

At this moment, Zheng Hong rushed out.

The moment he saw Gu Qian, he was filled with excitement.

He then knelt down and said, "Greetings, General."

Since the adults left yesterday, he had considered countless possibilities regarding the rescue.

But I didn't expect it to happen so quickly.

Gu Qian waved his hand, signaling Zheng Hong to get up.

He looked at Zheng Hong, who noticed Gu Qian's confusion and quickly clasped his hands in a fist and explained, "This subordinate, Zheng Hong, is the magistrate of Baiyang County."

Qiu Yan was equally puzzled.

"Lord County Commandant, what brings you here?"

"This is a long story, all because of Chu Tian. That day, the lord sent me to capture this person, but I didn't expect that his martial arts were extremely high, and I was no match for him."

Brother Qiu happened to be passing by and saved me. We wanted to go back, but we got lost and wandered around until we ended up back in Huaiyuan.

While Zheng Hong was speaking, all the members of the Jiang family, except for Jiang Liu, the two elders of the Jiang family, and Yun Shi, were stunned in place.

The general has arrived?

They were filled with doubt: why would the general claim to be a member of Qiu Dafu's family?

Yun turned to look at Zheng Hong, and seeing his sincere expression, her face instantly turned red.

She just turned the general away.

"Just now, it was I who was blind and did not recognize your greatness."

Gu Qian shook his head, a polite smile on his face, "It's alright."

Mr. and Mrs. Jiang were still in disbelief, staring blankly at Gu Qian, lost in thought. Finally, Jiang Liu pulled them back to their senses.

Zheng Hong is the magistrate of Baiyang County, so his words are probably true.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Qiu Yan and Gu Qian were invited into the courtyard by Jiang's mother.

Qiu Yan's second uncle, whom she was thinking about, was carrying herbs and walking into the alley.

But just then, a man stood in his way.

Upon closer inspection, Qiu Dafu realized it was the jailer from that night.

He has nowhere to go now, and spends his days hiding, resembling a beggar, but worse than a beggar.

Unlike him, the beggar was not being hunted down.

All the jailers are dead, and he's the only one who escaped. If they don't arrest him, who will they arrest?

Qiu Dafu, his road blocked, said with displeasure, "Get out of the way!"

"I, Liu Qi, am willing to follow you, sir," he said as he knelt before Qiu Dafu.

Qiu Dafu didn't kill him; he just wanted to use him.

It's not to add a burden to myself.

He bypassed the man and continued on his way.

Liu Qi got up and chased after him, saying, "My lord, please take me in."

Qiu Dafu turned around and said coldly, "Don't call me 'sir'!"

Liu Qi scratched his head. "Master."

Qiu Dafu ignored him, walked around him again, and quickened his pace.

Liu Qi pressed on, "Master, it's you who left me with nowhere to go."

Qiu Dafu: "Don't follow me!"

Uncle Jiang had wronged him, saying that he was in cahoots with these people. How could he take in this person and only cause himself more trouble?

But before they could take more than a few steps, a dark shadow flashed in front of them, and a one-armed man suddenly appeared in front of them not far away.

It was Chu Tian, ​​with his personal guard beside him.

How could this person survive such severe injuries?

Qiu Dafu was horrified, and his expression darkened.

"General Chu...?" Liu Qi's legs trembled. Had he appeared here to capture him?

On second thought, he realized that it was impossible; he was just an insignificant nobody and could not possibly be worthy of General Chu's presence.

Liu Qi looked at Qiu Dafu: "General Chu... came looking for you? Oh, I see, it must be because you broke into the prison without permission, and he's here to settle scores with you."
