Chapter 243: Estrangement (Part 2)



For the second and third consecutive days... Duan Qingxi came here to attend classes.

At first she stood outside and listened to the class, but after a while, she simply ran in and sat down with the other children to listen.

The children were very reserved at first, but when they found out that she was a nice person, they began to approach her.

Duan Qingxi really likes children. She is humorous and can tell many stories, so these children immediately become very attached to her.

Xu Xuan was furious when he saw that Duan Qingxi, who had only been there for a few days, was more popular than him.

But seeing that Duan Qingxi was really kind to these children, and this guy was good at saying coaxing words, making these children so happy, he couldn't help but be happy with these children.

Duan Qingxi felt relaxed, but Helian Sheng was a little nervous.

The man in black robe was a very vigilant and cautious person. Even though Helian Sheng "took" the medicine he gave him, he still felt uneasy. He tried it again and again. After such a long time, he finally relaxed his vigilance a little.

Moonless night.

The man in black robe made an appointment with the village chief to meet deep in the forest, and when the village chief arrived at the destination, the man in black robe was already waiting there.

The village chief saluted the black-robed man and said respectfully, "Sir."

The black-robed man turned to look at the village chief and said calmly, "This Dongfang Yan should be true, but we can't take it lightly. He lives here now, so you must be careful at all times."

Upon hearing this, the village chief quickly said, "I understand."

The black-robed man asked again, "How is the task I asked you to do going?"

The village chief knew he was asking about Liu Song. After a moment's hesitation, he said, "It's my incompetence. Although I've discovered that Lord Liu is still alive, he's been imprisoned deep in the dungeon, and there are countless experts guarding it. It's really difficult to rescue him..."

Hearing this, the man in black robe frowned fiercely, seeming very displeased.

The village chief quickly said, "Please forgive me, sir. We are just not that capable. We can rob and kill people, but we are powerless to rescue anyone in that dungeon."

After a pause, he gritted his teeth and said, "Why don't you give us a little more time, sir? I will do my best to rescue them!"

The black-robed man nodded in satisfaction and said, "We must rescue him no matter what. Even if he only has one breath left, we must rescue him!"

Liu Song had the information that Qin Yong wanted to know. If Helian Sheng had not been there, the man in black robe would not have handed the matter over to a mere group of bandits for fear of exposing his identity.

The village chief respectfully said "Yes," and then couldn't help asking, "Sir, I really don't understand. We've killed Sir Liu's family, and he's no longer useful. Why did the Prime Minister bother to rescue him? What if he betrayed you from the beginning? Wouldn't all our efforts be in vain?"

The black-robed man glanced at him and said, "What do you know? Since the Prime Minister wants to save him, he must have his own considerations."

"Yes, yes, I naturally don't dare to compare my intelligence with the Prime Minister. I'm just worried that if he finds out that we've killed his family, he might want to take revenge on us. What should we do?"

After a pause, the village chief continued, "I've heard a long time ago that although Liu Song is cruel and ruthless and has helped the Prime Minister do many evil things, he is very good to his wife and children. What if..."

"No chance of that happening! The Prime Minister won't let him know!"
