Li Nian never expected that after she was away for just a short while, her daughter, who was originally sleeping soundly in bed, would disappear?!
The quilt was opened, and I reached out to find that there was still warmth where Jinhe had just slept.
Could it be that Jinhe woke up and found that she was not there, so he went out to look for her?
"Jinhe—" Li Nian called out, "Xiao Jinhe! Mother is here, come out quickly!"
The little girl is sometimes naughty and I will play hide-and-seek with her.
Li Nian shouted from inside the house to outside, but there was no response.
She felt panic well up in her heart and continued to shout, "Xiao Jinhe, come out quickly. Don't hide, okay? You scared your mother."
Still no response.
"Xiaohong! Xiaolu!" Li Nian shouted hurriedly.
Two figures, one red and one green, appeared in the yard.
Li Nian asked hurriedly, "Have you seen Jinhe?"
Xiaohong and Xiaolu saw the usually calm Madam showing such an expression, and then remembered that Madam had been calling out for the young lady just now. Could it be that...
Xiao Hong immediately said, "I was watching in the dark the whole time. I only saw Madam go out and knock on the Second Madam's door, and then you returned to the room. I didn't see the young lady."
Xiaolu also said, "Madam, I haven't seen the young lady either."
"Madam, is the young lady missing? Could she have woken up and hidden in the house? We have been guarding it and haven't seen any suspicious people approaching your house." Xiaohong's tone was a little anxious.
Li Nian's face turned pale. "I've searched the whole house, but I can't find her. Besides, if Jin He wakes up in the middle of the night, she'll definitely be crying out for her mother. She's never hidden herself before."
Li Nian hurriedly ordered, "Xiaohong, go call Cang Shu and have him gather the others to search together!"
She looked at Xiaolu again and said, "Come with me and continue searching nearby. It's only been a short while, so they shouldn't be able to get far."
"yes!"
Xiaohong responded and went to find Cangshu without delay.
On the other side, Li Sisi followed Cangwu to the doorstep of the villager who was attacked by the wolves.
Judging from the visual, there were about a dozen or twenty wolves, their eyes glowing green in the dark night.
At first glance, it looks very imposing and dangerous.
The wolves basically surrounded the family, and two of them even jumped onto the roof of the farmer's house.
The villagers spontaneously came with farm tools, and some hunters even came with bows and arrows, and the crowd and the wolves were in a stalemate.
Suddenly, the sound of a baby crying was heard in the house, accompanied by the cursing of the farmer's man.
"Cry, cry, cry all day long. If you cry again, I'll throw you out to feed the wolves!"
The woman cursed loudly, "She's still young, what can she understand? You better think of a solution!"
The man said angrily: "What can I do? These beasts—"
The man's curses suddenly turned into screams.
Then the woman's scream was heard again, and then the door of the farmer's house was broken open by something with great force.
A boy of about ten years old crawled out, and the wolves that were waiting for an opportunity suddenly rushed towards the boy.
The second man who came out saw this and exclaimed: "Gui'er——"
The villagers holding farm tools started fighting with other wolves.
The man rushed towards his son and struggled to rescue him from the wolf's claws.
Li Sisi went up to help with a sword.
The few people brought by Cangwu were also martial artists. When they joined the battle, the wolf pack was quickly defeated.
Li Sisi has fought with others many times since she came to ancient times, but this is her first time dealing with a wolf.
Fortunately, there were more people than wolves, and no one was injured.
Just as I was about to continue helping, I suddenly heard the system's voice.
[Host Sisi, Jinhe is missing.]
[What?!] Li Sisi was fighting enthusiastically, but when she heard the news, she paused.
The wolf that was struggling with her took the opportunity to grab her with its claws.
"Hiss--" Li Sisi was caught off guard and was attacked by the wolf's claws, and a bloody wound immediately appeared on her arm.
Li Sisi didn't bother to fight with the wolf. She dodged and took the opportunity when someone came forward to help to run back in a hurry.
At this time, the wolves saw that the situation was not good, and the wolf standing on the roof shouted "Howl~~~".
All the wolves were well-trained to flee from the battlefield.
Li Sisi didn't care who won or lost at this moment, she just ran towards their residence.
While running, he asked: [System, what's going on? Why is Jinhe missing? Where is Nian Nian?]
System: [Host Nian Nian was worried about your safety and ran to your door and knocked. When she returned home, she found Jin He was gone.]
Li Sisi: [Aren't Xiaohong and Xiaolu guarding it?]
System: [It seems that neither of them saw Jin He leave the room, and they have no idea how Jin He disappeared.]
Li Sisi was running while communicating with the system to understand the situation.
On the way, I ran into Xiaohong running towards me.
"Xiaohong, where are you going? Have you found Jinhe?" Li Sisi asked quickly.
Xiaohong was surprised for a moment, not understanding how Li Sisi, who had just come from the front, knew that the young lady was missing.
But now is not the time to be curious about this.
Xiaohong quickly replied, "No. Madam asked her subordinates to find Cangshu and asked everyone to help look for him."
"Then go quickly!" Li Sisi waved her hand and continued to run back.
When I came back after running all the way, I saw Li Nian standing in the yard with a dejected look on his face.
"Niannian!" Li Sisi shouted and ran towards her.
Li Nian was panicking and confused at the moment, but he looked very calm on the surface.
When he saw Li Sisi, the calmness he had been forcing himself to maintain seemed to find a breakthrough in an instant.
Her eyes instantly turned red, and the tears she had been suppressing could no longer be contained.
"Sisi, Jinhe is missing. I was away for just a short while and she disappeared..." Li Nian tried to control herself from crying, but her voice was unconsciously choked.
"I've looked everywhere but haven't seen her. She wouldn't run away on her own. She must be in danger."
Li Sisi held her hand and said, "Don't worry, if we look together, we will definitely find it! Let's search around together again!"
Li Nian held her back and shook her head: "Wait for Cang Shu, he's more familiar with this place and has more people under him."
Li Sisi held her hand and said, "Okay, I'll wait with you."
Li Sisi was furious.
Don't let her catch who kidnapped Jinhe, otherwise I will skin that bastard alive!
Feeling Li Nian's hand tremble slightly, Li Sisi held her hand with both hands and comforted her: "Don't worry, Jinhe will be fine."
Li Nian said "hmm" softly.
But he knew in his heart that Jinhe must have had an accident.
However, this place is very far away from the capital. Wen Luoxin has never been here, and Zhao Ju has been sent back to the capital.
This is also their first time coming to the southern border. They don’t have any enemies here, right?
