Chapter 100 Rescue
The man was hit by the snow thorns, but he did not stop. He staggered for a moment, but his speed increased instead of slowing down. He still ran forward quickly, but he was stopped for a moment, and Yu Mu was able to keep up with his speed.
The two men, one chasing and the other fleeing, soon arrived at a remote place.
At this moment, the man couldn't help but look back at Yu Mu, thinking that with his extraordinary speed, he should have gotten rid of her, right? He didn't want to look back, but saw that she was moving smoothly and quickly behind him. Judging from her posture, it wouldn't take long for her to catch up with him. However, because of the injury on his hip and the tingling sensation, his speed had dropped significantly. Needless to say, his speed would slow down even more. He was anxious at the moment.
He glanced down at the child in his arms and saw that the child was looking at the woman behind him with a look of fear on his chubby face. He suddenly became determined and immediately lifted the child up and shouted: "Don't come over here. If you come over again, I will kill your child."
These words made Yu Mu tremble with fear.
At the same time, I am also puzzled. Hasn't she always had a talent for concealment, making it difficult for ordinary people to discover her?
How could this man see her? Just now she had wanted to catch up and attack the man, but now it seemed that it was impossible! At the same time, this also meant that rescue would be more difficult.
Thinking of the danger Qingqing might be in, she almost suffocated and said quickly: "Don't hurt her."
"Then don't chase me."
The man shouted, with a ferocious look on his face.
When he saw Yu Mu still slowly moving forward, as if trying to snatch the child back, he immediately lifted the child higher, causing Yu Mu to stop immediately. He then yelled, "You stinky woman, get back! Don't try to be tricky with me, or I'll really throw your child away."
Yu Mu's face was cold. The man hit the vital point directly, making her feel torn. But she couldn't fall into the trap and listen to him in everything. Otherwise, if Qingqingzhen fell into his hands, who knows what would happen.
"What are you going to do?"
Yu Mu took a deep breath, suppressed the sadness and fear in his heart, and said, "However much money you want, I can give it to you."
"I don't want your money, get out now!"
The man's face showed hesitation at first, as if he was really impressed by her conditions, but after seeing her clothes, he immediately became tough. She was not dressed as well as him, so how much money could she have?
Don't be fooled!
When Yu Mu heard this, he immediately came to his senses. This man must have other intentions. It was not as simple as kidnapping and extortion. Otherwise, why would he leave such a good opportunity without putting forward any conditions?
"Mom."
At this time, Qingqing's cute voice came over, revealing a weak panic, which was completely different from her usual sweet calls.
Yu Mu looked at the little baby, who was also looking at her. An idea suddenly struck her, and she shouted, "Qingqing, burn him with fire."
"What's burning?"
The man asked in surprise.
As soon as he said that, he felt a burning sensation on his shoulder and a sharp pain. He quickly looked down and saw that the arm holding the little girl was already wrapped in flames. The flames spread very quickly and burned his clothes in an instant. The pain made him unable to hold the child anymore. Qingqing fell to the ground with fire spewing out of her mouth. She was contaminated by the fire, but she was not hurt at all.
"Help, there's a fire, there's a fire, help..."
The man screamed in terror and had no time to take care of his child. The flames burned him so hard that he ran away.
“Qingqing!”
Yu Mu immediately ran over and hugged Qingqing, tears streaming down his face.
"Mom."
Qingqing cried out and sat quietly in her arms, completely relaxed. However, she didn't cry. She just stared blankly at the figure of the fire man running away.
Are you scared silly?
Yu Mu wiped her tears and asked her: "Baby, are you okay?"
"Mom."
Qingqing rubbed her face with her chubby face and asked her: "Did the bad guy run away?"
"He ran away! Qingqing is so awesome! You beat him away by yourself. Next time if you meet a bad guy, you just breathe fire at them, okay?"
In order to avoid a similar situation today and let Qingqing get hurt, Yu Mu taught her a lesson.
"Yeah, burn him."
Qingqing nodded repeatedly.
"So was Qingqing scared when he carried her away just now?"
Yu Mu asked worriedly. It would have been fine if he hadn't asked, but once he asked, it was a disaster. The child opened her mouth and started crying, looking aggrieved, with tears flowing like a stream. It seemed that she just remembered her fear now, having forgotten it just now. Yu Mu hurriedly coaxed her and comforted her for a while before she stopped crying. She looked a little tired and listless.
It seems that the shock and fright just now did have an impact on her.
Yu Mu quickly carried her back to rest and did not buy another airship.
After settling Qingqing down and letting her fall asleep, Yu Mu felt a surge of anger in his heart. Why did that man steal Qingqing? Why did he hurt a child for no reason?
The key point is that the man didn't seem to be doing it for money, but seemed to have other motives.
Confused, Yu Mu immediately asked Mo Xi to take Qing Qing back to the original place to check. Following the traces of burnt and tattered clothes, Yu Mu chased after him. In the end, she saw the man's body. He had been burned into charcoal, and all the valuable things on his body were gone. He was no longer in human form.
There is nothing left to trace.
Yu Mu waited at the scene for a long time, but did not see any suspicious people come forward to claim the body. After the city guards took the body away, she had no choice but to go home.
This hidden danger made Yu Mu alert. She knew that someone was watching her in secret, but she didn't know why. Was it Mo Xi or herself?
If she doesn't figure it out, it will be like a thorn in her heart that will keep her from finding peace.
In the evening, while having dinner, everyone discussed this.
Feng Li asked, "Do you think it was done by the person who beat you with the Purification Pill?"
"Why?"
Yu Mu had thought about this before. After all, Xu Jiajia had once thought of the purification pill, but she fought back. Could it be her?
Yu Mu was shocked when he thought of this. Feng Li was also talking about her and said, "I heard you say that this person didn't do it for money, but just wanted to take Qingqing away. He must have other intentions. The most valuable thing you have now is the Purification Pill. Last time you extorted such a large sum of money from Xu Jiajia, she must be angry and resentful of you. Maybe..."
"I see!"
Yu Mu was filled with anger after hearing this. He put down his chopsticks and said, "I'll go see if it's her."
"Wait a moment, Auntie."
Seeing Yu Mu about to leave, Mo Xi hurriedly stopped her and said, "I heard from Li Jin that Xu Jiajia recently went to another province, but Xu Sheng's men once inquired about our family from Li Jin. I couldn't guess why before, but now I think I know."
Xu Sheng?
Yu Mu was very familiar with this name. After all, he was the first person to buy all her purification pills. He was also the one who once wanted to buy the purification pill formula with 10 million gold coins, but was rejected by her. This person's surname was also Xu.
"Do you know what his relationship with Xu Jiajia is?"
Yu Mu asked doubtfully.
