Ma Yilun rushed into Wu Xiaoya's room, turned around twice in a hurry and rushed out again.

"No one!" He looked at Yan Wenxuan with gritted teeth and forced out two words from between his teeth.

Yan Wenxuan stood in the muddy yard which was about to become damp due to the rain. He pushed his glasses with his hand and his voice sounded a little dry.

"go!"

Ma Yilun looked at him suspiciously, "Where are you going?"

"It doesn't matter where we go, as long as we get out of here first." Yan Wenxuan shook his head, listening to the rustling sound of trees beside his ears, his face looking extremely ugly.

"Leave? What about Xiaoyun and Bai Feifei?"

Ma Yilun took two steps forward and grabbed Yan Wenxuan by the collar, "Do you want to run away? If you want to go, go ahead. I'll go get the village chief for help!"

Yan Wenxuan slapped his hand down with force, "Village Chief, Gou San, including the villagers you have met, are all in the same group."

His expression was solemn, but his tone was unquestionable.

"Yan Wenxuan, can you please stop talking nonsense here? Just because Tan Zishan is missing, you make wild assumptions about others?" Ma Yiluan smiled disdainfully, but his voice was clearly trembling.

"Don't stay here for now, let's talk while we walk." Yan Wenxuan grabbed his wrist and hurriedly ran towards the mountain road.

"I now even suspect that Wu Xiaoya is in cahoots with this group of people."

Ma Yilun opened his mouth with a look of despair: "What do you want to say?"

"The only way now is for us to run out and call for help." Yan Wenxuan tried hard to control his panic.

"The nearest government office is quite a distance from here, and it's going to rain soon..." Ma Yilun was dragged down the mountain by him, his voice trembling, as if he still had a glimmer of hope, "Is it possible that we are forced to have hallucinations?"

"Wrong, it's just a misunderstanding." Yan Wenxuan noticed his inner uneasiness and forced himself to calm down.

"But if, as I think, we get stuck here, it'll all be over."

He pointed at the winding mountain road and said, "When the rainstorm comes, the road becomes very difficult to walk on. Looking at the situation, we can't use our cell phones to contact the outside world for a short period of time."

"It's not an option to report it to the police. There's only one solution now."

Ma Yilun completely abandoned the last bit of fantasy and realized the seriousness of the problem. "What?"

"Find a way to notify Qingjun's family." Yan Wenxuan said in a low voice, "You, me, Lu Xiaoyun and Bai Feifei, the power we can seek is always limited."

"Even if my family has some connections with the authorities, it will be difficult for the authorities to conduct searches and investigations in such a heavy rainstorm. If we delay even a little, I'm afraid... there's only Shen Qingjun. If anything happens to her, this mountain will definitely be turned upside down."

Ma Yilun rolled up his sleeves and took a deep breath: "Brother Ran seems to have a good relationship with Shen Qingjun, so he should have a way to contact her family."

Yan Wenxuan nodded, and the worry in his eyes faded a little. "Then we only have to consider whether the heavy rain will block us in the mountains."

"What are you afraid of? No matter how heavy the rain is, can it still drown us?" Ma Yilun was fearless and spat on the ground. "Damn, these bastards have lost their consciences. I feel sorry for them."

Yan Wenxuan stopped talking and hurried on his way. The sound of his anxious heartbeat kept urging him to go faster, faster!

……

In the waters of Black Reef Island, inside a ship of the Seventh Fleet.

Qi Jingshan was furious, "This little bastard actually dared to lie to me!"

He Yongjin, who was standing by, looked at his nose and his mind, as if he heard nothing.

Naturally, he knew who Qi Jingshan was talking about. She was a noble lady from Yunjing City. An ordinary person would probably regret it for the rest of his life if he cursed her.

Jiang Ran shook his head imperceptibly.

He knew Shen Qingjun's thoughts very well. She definitely wouldn't want to bring a group of bodyguards with her when she went out with friends. However, what Qi Jingshan said was interesting. This woman actually used him as a shield.

"I thought about what happened to Lin Wenyao before, so I sent people to strengthen her protection."

Qi Jingshan sighed, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "Some time ago, she wanted to go out with her classmates and insisted that no one should follow her. How could I agree to that?"

Jiang Ran raised his eyes to look at him, and said in an inexplicable tone: "So she said I would go too?"

"I thought it would be safest with you by her side, so I didn't have time to think about it too much..." Embarrassment appeared in Qi Jingshan's old eyes.

He originally hoped that Shen Qingjun could become friends with Jiang Ran, but the two of them didn't seem to have many opportunities to communicate with each other. When they finally had a chance to travel together, he didn't even think of stopping them.

If Shen Qingjun had lied in other ways, Qi Jingshan would most likely not have been fooled, but by bringing up Jiang Ran's name, it was easy to dispel his concerns.

"How foolish." A hint of impatience flashed across Jiang Ran's weary eyes. "They've been gone for so long, and you never thought about caring about her safety?"

He Yongjin looked up in surprise and realized that although Qi Jingshan looked angry, he didn't dare to retort. His heart was filled with turbulent waves.

It was not uncommon for Qi Jingshan to point at others and call them idiots, but this was the first time he was looked at sideways and called stupid. It was even more unheard of that he did not immediately get angry after being scolded.

He subconsciously classified Jiang Ran as someone who should not be provoked.

"Qingjun tells me she's safe every day." Qi Jingshan took out the latest Xingchen mobile phone from his arms and raised his eyebrows to show off, "Do you think I could let her hang around outside for so long?"

The tiredness in Jiang Ran's eyes eased a little, "Is Bai Feifei with her?"

"Yes, Qingjun introduced her classmates to me." Qi Jingshan's old face was smiling like a chrysanthemum, "There are also people named Lu Xiaoyun and Ma Yilun..."

"Call Shen Qingjun and ask her to bring Bai Feifei back to Nandu as soon as possible." Jiang Ran felt a headache when he thought of the text message Qin Yun sent. He couldn't keep saying that he was traveling with Bai Feifei.

When Yan Chuan sent Qin Yun back to Nandu, he would be scolded when he saw that there was no one at home, so it would be better to get Bai Feifei back as soon as possible to get a unified statement.

Qi Jingshan looked at the time and found that it was almost the time when Shen Qingjun usually called. In addition, he did miss this girl a little, so he immediately picked up his phone and dialed the number.

"The number you dialed is out of service area. Please call again later."

Qi Jingshan, who was originally putting on a smiling face and preparing to talk to his granddaughter, suddenly froze, "This damn girl! Where did she go!"

Jiang Ran called Bai Feifei with a bit of helplessness. After a brief silence, the same prompt tone appeared again.

His eyes suddenly turned cold, and after the smile on his face disappeared, Qi Jingshan called Shen Qingjun again and asked coldly, "When was the last time Shen Qingjun told you that he was safe?"

"It was about this time yesterday." Qi Jingshan didn't expect such a big reaction from him, and he felt a little nervous.

"Check her location." Jiang Ran supported the table with one hand and stood up again after sitting down. "It's very likely that something went wrong."
