Ling Yun loosened his hand, and Song Mu fell to the ground.
He pounded his fists on the ground, gravel biting into his joints. "I'll follow the scent to find Xiao Qiu. You interrogate Rong Qian."
After saying that, Song Mu stood up. Because he was too flustered, his face was blank.
Ling Yun also knew that now was not the time to get angry, so he immediately went to the tribe to look for Rong Qian, but he couldn't find him after searching the entire tribe.
"Where's Rong Qian?!"
When Teng Ning heard that Ling Yun was looking for Rong Qian, he came to Ling Yun and said, "I saw him leave the tribe today. He must have gone hunting. What do you want with him?"
Ling Yun's face was cold as he went to the guard at the entrance of the tribe to ask, "Which direction did Rong Qian go? When did he leave?"
"It's been a while. He went that way. Chief, do you need anything from him? I'll let him find you when he comes back..."
Before the guard could finish his words, Ling Yun transformed into a beast and ran in the direction the guard was pointing.
Rong Qian is missing.
Ling Yun searched almost the entire forest but still couldn't find Rong Qian.
When he returned to the tribe, it was already getting dark. He summoned the males of the tribe. Everyone gathered in the open space, all puzzled by the sudden call of the tribe leader at night:
"Chief, what happened?"
"Lin Qiu is lost. I hope everyone can help me find her."
Ling Yun didn't say much nonsense, he didn't want to waste time.
When everyone heard that a female was missing from the tribe, they all panicked: "Lin Qiu is missing? Wasn't she at home? How could she be missing?"
"It's a problem between me and Song Mu. I've been away from home the whole time, and Rong Qian sent Song Mu out, leaving Lin Qiu home alone. Someone must have sneaked into our tribe, entered our house, and kidnapped Lin Qiu. I... Anyway, I'm sorry to bother everyone."
"Chief, Lin Qiu is a female from our tribe. Her disappearance is a matter for all of us!"
"Let's go in different directions and search the entire nearby forest. I don't believe we won't be able to find Lin Qiu!"
Everyone thought of the stray orcs. After all, it was not uncommon for stray orcs to sneak into tribes and steal females.
Everyone was looking for it at the beginning, some were able to find it, but some were not.
Teng Ning remembered that Song Mu came to see him today, and he roughly understood what was going on.
"Teng Ning, call Rong Qian's brothers and come with me to find him."
"Okay, clan leader, don't worry. If we find Rong Qian, we will definitely find Lin Qiu!"
Teng Ning didn't know how Rong Qian contacted the wandering orcs, but he knew why Rong Qian did it.
Rong Qian had been quiet for a whole winter season, and as soon as the weather got warmer, he couldn't wait.
Most of the males in the tribe went out, but all returned empty-handed. Instead, Ling Yun found Rong Qian hiding in a cave.
When Rong Qian saw Ling Yun, his first reaction was panic and shock. He immediately transformed into a beast, wanting to fight a desperate battle with Ling Yun.
Of course Ling Yun wouldn't let him die so easily. He looked at Rong Qian's brothers behind him and said, "Tie him back to the tribe."
Rong Qian's brothers already felt ashamed of what their father had done, and now their brother Rong Qian had done such a heartless thing. They really had no face to stay in the tribe anymore.
After hearing Ling Yun's words, everyone rushed forward to show their attitude.
Looking at this scene of brothers killing each other, Teng Ning closed his eyes helplessly.
If Yan Ti knew this, she would definitely be very sad.
Rong Qian was pinned to the ground by his brothers, unable to move. Ling Yun said coldly, "Break his arms and legs to prevent him from committing suicide. I have something else to ask him."
As soon as Ling Yun finished speaking, Rong Qian couldn't help but howl in pain.
With his hands and feet broken, Rong Qian crawled in the cave like a worm.
Ling Yun looked at Rong Qian and said, "The most important thing for you right now is to die a happy death. If you want to die a happy death, answer my questions truthfully."
He grabbed Rong Qian's hair and made him look at him. "Where is that wandering orc? Tell me! If I can't find Lin Qiu, I'll use a bone knife to slice off your flesh one piece at a time. Every day I can't find you, I'll slice off one piece at a time. You can't die, and you can't escape. You'll watch your body slowly turn into a pile of bones."
Rong Qian's hair stood on end at Ling Yun's words: "I don't know, I really don't know! Ling Yun, just kill me! I'm defeated, just kill me!"
"I've made it very clear. Since you don't know what's best for you," Ling Yun kicked Rong Qian, knocking him over, "then take him back and tie him up properly."
When the others heard what Ling Yun had just said, they all felt sad. For a moment, they felt that their family leader was not as sunny as he usually appeared.
"Ling Yun, I really don't know! It was Ji Nan! He only asked me to send Song Mu away when you weren't home. I really don't know the rest! Go ask Ji Nan at the Rabbit Tribe! I'm telling the truth!"
Rong Qian didn't want to be torn into pieces every day, and he didn't want to live in humiliation like a maggot.
When he saw Ling Yun, he knew that Ji Nan had not fulfilled his promise to him and had someone sneak into Ling Yun's house and kill Lin Qiu directly.
If Lin Qiu had died at that time, Ling Yun would have died long ago because the beast pattern disappeared, and would not have chased him here.
The truth was revealed and Rong Qian admitted defeat. Now he just wanted a quick and painful death.
He told the truth and immediately betrayed Ji Nan. After all, Ji Nan was not sincere in cooperating with him.
Ling Yun believed Rong Qian's words. He said to Teng Ning, "Keep an eye on him."
Teng Ning promised: "Don't worry, we will definitely keep an eye on him."
Ling Yun walked a few steps out and stopped. He glanced at Teng Ning and said to the others, "Rong Qian must not die before I return. No one's pleading will help."
Everyone agreed, but Ling Yun emphasized: "No one can do it."
Teng Ning suddenly understood what Ling Yun meant. He was afraid that Yan Ti would feel sorry for Rong Qian, so he wanted to let Teng Ning give Rong Qian a quick death while he was away.
Thinking of Yan Ti, Teng Ning knew that if she asked, he would have to do it.
"Chief, don't worry. We will gather all the males in the tribe to take turns guarding him!"
Rong Qian's brothers also understood Ling Yun's meaning. They asked everyone to take turns to guard, and Yan Ti had no choice.
Seeing that everyone was smart, Ling Yun rushed to the Rabbit Tribe to find Ji Nan.
-
The snow had just melted, so it was easy to leave footprints. Song Mu told himself not to panic and to follow the footprints.
During the journey, Song Mu discovered that the footprints had turned into a messy horizontal shape, and he was able to determine that the one who kidnapped Lin Qiu was a wandering orc, perhaps a scorpion, or a spider, centipede, or the like.
