Chapter 58 Going out to find help
"When did Miss Lan'er go up the mountain?" Shen Qingtang asked.
"It was yesterday morning." The old woman remembered this incident very clearly.
"Lan'er went out early yesterday morning, but she didn't come back until the afternoon. If it was normal, she should have come back before noon."
"I thought Lan'er might have been in trouble, so I went to the mayor and asked him to send someone to help me find her." "
The mayor promised me that he would send someone to look for Lan'er, but today has passed and I haven't received any news about Lan'er."
"I thought the mayor had sent people out to look for other girls before, but they didn't find her in the end."
"I was worried that Lan'er was in danger, so I had to go out and look for her myself."
At the end, the old woman choked up and tears welled up in her eyes.
Shen Qingtang listened to it and found that there was not much useful information.
The old woman didn't know the exact location of her granddaughter's disappearance, nor did she know the information of the murderers.
"Old woman, it's too late now. You won't be able to find Miss Lan'er by looking like this, and you will tire yourself out. Why don't you go back first and I'll stay here to look for her." "
How can that be? Lan'er is my granddaughter. I must find her. How can I trouble you alone?" The old woman was concerned about her granddaughter's safety, so she was not willing to go back like this.
Shen Qingtang suddenly remembered the scene in the mountains she saw when she was crossing the thunder tribulation. What
if Miss Lan'er was caught in that place?
There are so many people there. Even if she finds Miss Lan'er, can she rescue Lan'er and the other girls by herself?
Shen Qingtang suddenly realized the seriousness of the matter. This matter cannot be accomplished by her alone.
She needs help, many, many people.
Shen Qingtang had a hunch that those people might be related to the Beiming Kingdom.
She had to leave here before she could find help.
"Old lady, the mayor has spent more than two months trying to catch the murderer, how can you rescue Miss Lan'er by yourself? Even I am afraid I can't do it."
"Old lady, we need help, help that is more powerful than the mayor."
The old lady was a sensible person, and she took her words to heart.
"But young master, where can we find help?"
"Go to the county town and ask the county magistrate for help. The mayor has blocked the news. We can't do anything now. We need someone to escape from the town and ask for help from the superiors."
Shen Qingtang looked at the old woman excitedly, "Old woman, you are an old man in the town. Do you know if there is any place where people can escape quietly without being noticed by the mayor?"
The old woman thought about it carefully. After a while, she slightly widened her eyes and exclaimed in a low voice: "Yes, I know a place to leave Lingquan Town."
The young master's analysis was very reasonable. As long as the county magistrate knew about this, he would definitely not stand idly by.
Her granddaughter was saved!
"Young Master, come with me. I'll take you there."
The old woman was eager to save people. She took Shen Qingtang's arm and started to walk down the mountain, ignoring the pain in her body.
As she walked, she begged Shen Qingtang: "Child, my granddaughter's life depends on you."
After a while, Shen Qingtang felt that there was something in her hand. She looked down and saw that it was a worn-out brown storage bag.
"Old woman, what are you doing?" Shen Qingtang was puzzled.
"Good child, this is all my belongings. Now I give them all to you. I think you should be a young master of a wealthy family. I don't have many good things on me. Please don't dislike them." The old woman smiled at her.
Shen Qingtang returned the storage bag to the old woman and quickly refused.
"Old lady, I took the initiative to help you, how could I accept your things?"
"Take them back quickly, keep these things for you and Miss Lan'er to use together in the future."
The old lady refused to accept them and forced to stuff the storage bag into Shen Qingtang's hand.
"Good child, you are willing to help me, that's because you are kind-hearted. Although I am an old woman, I also know the principle of repaying kindness." "
Your trip is dangerous. If the mayor finds out that you have escaped, he will definitely send someone to catch you back."
"I can't just watch you take risks and reap the benefits. Just take these things."
Shen Qingtang looked at the storage bag in her hand and was deeply touched. The storage bag was obviously very light, but she felt it was very heavy.
"Old lady, you have given me all your property. Aren't you afraid that I will just walk away and not care about you and your granddaughter?"
The old lady smiled and shook her head: "I believe you won't. I have always been very accurate in judging people. Child, you are a good person." The
old lady looked deeply at Shen Qingtang. A ray of light appeared in her cloudy eyes, shining directly into Shen Qingtang's heart. It was the old lady's trust and expectation for her.
Shen Qingtang nodded heavily: "Old lady, don't worry, I will never break my promise. I will definitely come back to save your granddaughter."
The old lady took Shen Qingtang through the winding path and finally came to a small river.
"It's here." She pointed to the river. "If you swim along this river, you can swim out of Lingquan Town."
"The roads leading to the outside of the town are guarded by people sent by the town chief. Now the only way out is through this river."
"Thank you, old lady. I will find someone to help as soon as possible."
Time is life. As soon as the voice fell, Shen Qingtang jumped into the river with a "plop".
The next moment, two people suddenly ran out from the woods.
They were the two people who talked outside Shen Qingtang's house today.
The two saw the old lady standing by the river and thought she wanted to escape and report the news. They immediately ran over and kicked the old lady to the ground.
The old lady's back hit the hard stone, and she was in so much pain that she couldn't even stand up.
"What are you doing here, old woman?"
"Are you trying to escape from the river?"
The two have been looking for Shen Qingtang until now.
Not only did they not find Shen Qingtang, but they also discovered an old woman sneaking to the river in the middle of the night.
The old woman turned her head to look at the two people, and then recognized Wu Li, who had been working for Zhao Shuquan for many years.
"Wu Li, you..."
The old woman didn't know the other person, but from his face, he was definitely not a good person.
The old woman was sure that this person was definitely not from Lingquan Town.
How could an outsider follow Wu Li to do things in the middle of the night?
A hint of ruthlessness flashed in Liu Hu's eyes, and he drew the spirit sword in his hand without hesitation.
"This old woman saw my face, she can't live."
