"strangeness."
"Lian'er, don't overthink it. Da Shun is just out of sleep. He thinks every little thing is a thief," Da Yong said.
"Besides, even if there were thieves, our village is very vigilant, so they wouldn't be able to steal anything."
"Hmm," Qiao Lian'er replied somewhat perfunctorily.
Sometime later, she regretted it more than once.
If she knew that Song Laosan would one day return to this world, she would do everything she could to catch up with him on that mountain that night and deal with the trouble.
Unfortunately, no one expected that Song Laosan, who was locked up tightly, would patiently make a hole in the wall little by little and then escape.
In the middle of the night, Qiao Lian'er couldn't fall asleep no matter what she did.
She went over everything that had happened recently. Shi Nanfu was handling the supplies, so no one was asking her where they came from anymore. The eldest and second eldest Song brothers were dead, their bodies thrown into a mass grave. The third eldest Song brother was safely imprisoned. As for Gao Shuying, she wasn't the type to go back on her word; she wouldn't think of stealing the big red...
Why is there such an anomaly?
The next day, Qiao Lian'er got up with light dark circles under her eyes and prepared to have breakfast. Da Yong, who had just gone to the camp, hurriedly entered the courtyard.
"Something terrible has happened!"
"What happened?" Old Man Qiao asked as he swept the yard.
"Song Laosan is missing, he's run away." Da Yong frowned, his face showing a grim expression.
"When someone went to deliver breakfast, they found that Song Laosan was no longer in the house. However, the windows were welded with iron bars and the door was locked. How did he escape? Then they discovered that there was a hole in the wall. It turned out that he had dug a hole without saying a word and escaped under the cover of night."
"No matter how you dig a hole in the wall, there will always be some noise, right?" Mrs. Feng said incredulously.
“Song Laosan was cunning. He used an old dagger to slowly shave away the brick dust, a little bit each day. After more than ten days, he had thinned a piece of it. When no one was paying attention, he pushed that piece away and the person was out.”
"Only some thin brick fragments and that old dagger lay scattered against the wall."
Da Yong was filled with remorse and slapped himself hard on the forehead.
“Last night, it must have been Song Laosan who left from here, which caught Da Shun’s attention, that’s why Da Shun was shouting so loudly.”
"If I had known this, I would have chased them up the mountain and caught them no matter what."
"The camp has mobilized people to search, but so much time has passed, the person must have vanished without a trace."
The Qiao family members looked at each other, their faces solemn.
Having gone to great lengths to escape, Song Laosan, with his cunning and treacherous nature, will surely try every means to climb onto a powerful tree and regain his power. This time, driven by a desire for revenge, he will be even more ruthless than before.
With so many years of experience and a crooked mind, this wasn't difficult for Song Laosan to do.
The Song family wasn't afraid of him, but they also didn't want him to become a future threat, like a bomb buried underground. They didn't know when they would step on it, or on some night when they were sound asleep, this demon would reappear.
"This won't do. We must bring him back," said Old Lady Qiao. "If this beast isn't killed, he'll be a menace forever. General Guan was careless."
"Old woman, General Guan is in a difficult position too. After all, Song Laosan is the father of his two grandsons. If you were in his shoes, what would you do?" Old Qiao sighed.
"If anyone is to blame, it's Song Laosan for deceiving the Guan family in the first place."
After returning and relaying the news, Da Yong went back to the camp. Before leaving, he glanced at Qiao Lian'er.
Qiao Lian'er smiled wryly. Did Brother Dayong think she had a way to bring Song Laosan back?
It's tough. Now we can only hope that Song Laosan hasn't gone too far and has been caught by the soldiers.
However, she immediately thought of someone: Gao Shuying, a detention officer who specializes in arresting criminals.
