I was just playing tricks, how come I became Bai Yueguang

"Brother Heng, you're so injured that you can still catch a wild boar. That's amazing."

Shen Mianzhi held a sharp piece of flint in his hand and skillfully removed a piece of hind leg meat. Because he had no knife, the wild boar's fur was difficult to cut, so Shen Mianzhi simply threw a large piece of it with the skin on and put it on the rack to roast.

It was inconvenient for Zhou Yanheng to move, so he spent most of his time resting in a makeshift wooden shed.

Thanks to Shen Mianzhi's care, his condition has improved a lot, but the conditions on the deserted island are harsh, and if it goes on like this, the two stripes may not be saved.

Shen Mianzhi's method of dealing with the wild boar was extremely decisive. A few drops of bright red appeared on her delicate face. Her slender hands moved around the bloody wound and took out a heart bigger than her palm.

"Brother Heng, would you like some roasted pig heart?"

Zhou Yanheng looked up at the sky and said, "It's going to rain."

Shen Mianzhi quickly stood up and said, "I'm going to go to the beach to wash my hands first, and by the way, see if there is any movement. It's been two days, and there should be news soon."

Zhou Yanheng nodded and said gently, "Be careful."

Shen Mianzhi smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll be back soon." Then he turned around and trotted out of the mangroves.

The smile in Zhou Yanheng's eyes faded, and he turned to look at the wild boar that had been gutted not far away.

He is cruel and courageous. Shen Mianzhi has given him many surprises in the past two days.

After walking out of the mangroves, Shen Mianzhi observed the reef for a while, making sure there was no one there before slowly walking to the beach.

The waves were surging, and the air was filled with not only the wet and salty smell but also the smell of soil and rotten wood.

Storm is coming.

Shen Mianzhi squatted down, without any intention of taking shelter from the rain, and carefully washed the blood off his hands.

Qinyuan.

The atmosphere in the flower hall was solemn, with the second and third wives sitting opposite each other.

Shen Qian lowered his head and sipped his tea with an indifferent expression.

Shen Yuan glanced across at the other side, his lips curled up as he lowered his head and whispered, "These family meetings are really getting more and more out of line these days. Even a few young women are allowed in. I wonder what the old man is thinking?"

Shen Qian put down the tea, glanced at Shen Jiao with his eyes raised, and did not respond.

Shen Jiao glanced at him sideways, pretending not to see it.

Fu Sui'er tugged at Jiang Huashan's sleeves, covered his mouth and whispered, "These two can't help much, what's the point of grandpa calling them here?"

Without waiting for Jiang Huashan to answer, the bead curtain in the flower hall swayed, and Shen Zhuang walked in slowly.

"Everyone is here?"

"dad."

"grandfather."

Everyone stood up immediately.

"Sit down." Shen Zhuang waved his hand and immediately got to the point. "The rumors outside have spread everywhere. I don't need to tell you, you should all know it, right?"

Shen Yuan, "The government hasn't even spoken yet, but the news has already leaked. Someone must be behind this. Don't worry, Dad. I've arranged for someone to investigate and will definitely find the person behind this."

Shen Qian, "As long as the people in the video have nothing to do with the Shen family, these rumors are nothing to worry about. The most urgent thing is to find Zhizhi first. I heard that Lao Wu went to the island in person. Is there still no news?"

Shen Jiao glanced at them indifferently and sneered. These two people are really good at acting, one is better than the other. If you don’t know, you would think they are very loyal to the third house.

Shen Zhuang pondered for a moment and said calmly, "The Dark Hall has searched the entire island, but still has no clues."

Shen Yuan frowned, "I heard that the kid from the Zhou family also disappeared this time. Could it be that something happened to them both?"

The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. Jiang Huashan suddenly had an idea and his expression moved slightly.

Shen Jiao, "Dad, besides those three beaches, Whale Island has dozens of undeveloped deserted islands. Is it possible that Zhizhi was washed up on a deserted island?"

Shen Yuan shook his head and deliberately sounded pessimistic. "If they had washed up on a deserted island, Zhizhi should have found a way to inform us. But two days have passed, and the rescue planes have circled the wound on Whale Island a hundred and eighty times, and there's still no news. This is really abnormal. I'm afraid..."

Seeing Shen Jiao's bad face, Shen Yuan raised his eyes and looked at the teacup in his hand, "I'm afraid Zhizhi has already... looked for a needle in a haystack, so she can't find anyone."

Although Shen Yuan's words were harsh, it was not completely impossible. Shen Jiao suppressed her temper and turned to look at Shen Zhuang. "Dad, the island has a complex terrain and a changeable climate. It's possible that Zhizhi is trapped somewhere and can't contact us. I think we should increase our efforts and fully cover all the deserted islands."

"Grandpa, I..."

Fu Sui'er had originally wanted to volunteer to participate in the search and rescue effort. She was so lucky, maybe she'd stumble upon Shen Mianzhi. Before she could speak, Jiang Huashan suddenly gave her a helping hand. Fu Sui'er froze for a moment, then forced herself to change her tune, "I think my mom is right. We should have more people. Zhizhi must still be alive."

Shen Zhuang, "Qingyu sent a message saying he would go back to the island to help. With him and Lao Wu guarding there, it's only a matter of time before we find the person."

Shen Yuan was originally feeling somewhat gloating, but when he heard that Shen Qingyu was also involved, he immediately stopped laughing.

Last year, Shen Yuan was seriously ill and wanted Shen Qingyu to return home to fulfill his filial duty, but Shen Qingyu, so focused on his studies, didn't even reply. Now, he'd rushed back from Country Y just for an unrelated girl from the Third House. Shen Yuan clutched his chest, feeling like the heart attack he'd been recovering from for half a year was about to strike again.

"Brother Qingyu is back?" Fu Sui's eyes suddenly lit up.

After Shen Qingyu went to Xiwan, he didn't return to Shen Garden for a year. Occasionally, I heard news about him, saying that he was either expelled from school or offended that family, and he was in constant trouble.

Shen Zhuang nodded. "Zhizhi's matter will have to wait. I called you here to discuss something else."

Everyone was stunned. What could be more important than finding Shen Mianzhi right now?

Shen Zhuang's eyes grew heavier as he slowly said, "Lan Xi sent word back that Wu Tai's life is over and she doesn't have much time left."

Jiang Huashan was stunned for some reason, and the old man's kind face full of wrinkles flashed through his mind.

She was the first to tell her that her name had a origin and that she was a child who was given a wonderful blessing.

Whether in the previous life or this life, Grandma Wu has always loved her in her own way.

Shen Zhuang said, "Zhizhi's matter cannot be resolved for the time being. I must stay in Jinggang Harbor, but we can't neglect Grandma. Big brother, second brother, you two go to Xiangying first. I will take Zhizhi with me when she comes back."

Grandma Wu never married in her life. She has been in the Shen family for a full eighty years, from the generation of Shen Zhuang’s grandfather to the present day. Her status is no longer comparable to that of an ordinary servant.

Shen Qian and Shen Yuan also knew how powerful it was and immediately agreed.

"Grandpa..." Jiang Huashan thought for a moment, his eyes fixed slightly, "I'll go too."
