C193 (1/2)
The early morning sunlight shone through the gaps between the trees and sprinkled onto the forest. The little bird once again began to chirp softly, and Long Feiyu slowly opened his eyes, only to see a field of emerald light. The tender green of the branches gently swayed in the wind, and in the depths of the forest, there was still a light mist curling about.
Jia Lin and Jia Yu were also sleeping soundly, but they had not seen Cui Er. There was doubt in Long Feiyu's eyes, and he said softly: ”Don't worry, Cui Er went to the back of the tree!”
He did not explain, but Long Feiyu was no longer able to ask. When he woke up in the morning, girls would definitely have some things to do, and these things would have to be done behind their backs.
Although his voice was soft, the three Li Family Brothers were all vigilant people. A few of them opened their eyes at the same time, while Jia Lin and Jia Yu had already woken up.
Li Yanfei smiled, ”This forest, last night was truly dangerous, luckily everyone was fine, call Cui Er over, we are going!”
Jia Lin shouted, ”Cui Er, it's time to go!”
No one answered! Long Feiyu's expression changed. No one had dared to take such a long time, so common plum root's expression changed as well. He shouted loudly, ”Cui Er!”
The voice came from far away, and the birds flew up, but still no one answered!
Mei San's body flew behind a big tree and cried out in alarm. Long Feiyu also rushed to the back of the tree immediately. There was no one behind the tree, only a small dart on the tree trunk and a piece of paper underneath the dart. There was a face drawn below it!
Everyone was stunned, and fire seemed to be about to spew out of common plum root's eyes. ”In the end, they still succeeded!”
Li Yanfei punched the tree, causing all the leaves to fall, and said harshly: ”Chase!”
In an instant, the horses roared in unison. He dashed out of the forest, heading towards the path he had come from. However, even when they chased him all the way to the stream, they still could not find any information related to Cui Er.
common plum root's face was ashen. He reined in his horse and shouted, ”It seems that we are already too late. We can't catch up! I will return to Merlin and gather all the people there to wipe out the Thousand Ghost Manor! ”
Li Yanfei muttered to herself, but Li Yanyuan said: ”Cui Er is currently in extreme danger, if we return to the Merlin House, it will take too long, why don't we go straight for the Thousand Ghost Manor?”
The common plum root slowly said: ”I thank Second Brother Li for his concern for Cui Er, but we don't have enough manpower right now, so I'm afraid that if we barge into the Thousand Ghost Manor …” He was meticulous and was able to keep his mind clear under the circumstances. With their current strength, barging into Thousand Ghost Manor was simply courting death, it would not be of any use!
Li Yanfei had wandered the martial arts world for many years. Of course she knew the difference in strength, and she said, ”Brother Mei is right! If we can intercept that Thief midway, we would naturally be able to save Cui Er, and if we can't make it in time, we would be able to hide in the vicinity of the Thousand Ghost Manor and find out what is going on with the Villa. When the Brother Mei returns, we can have a look out for him! ” He had been thinking about it for a long time, and this was one of the best methods at the moment.
The common plum root dismounted, prostrated himself on the ground, and said solemnly: ”Because of the matter of Merlin, you all have to repeatedly take life and death risks. I am not at ease, let's do it this way!”
Long Feiyu suddenly said: ”I will also go with the Li Family brothers!”
