After traveling through time, I rely on force to survive

After listening to Da Shuang's intermittent words and understanding the complete meaning, Zhou Yimo guessed that it was Liu Yuanwai's men who kidnapped Xier.

I immediately felt relieved.

As long as Xier doesn't act stubbornly, she won't suffer much.

While Zhou Yimo was thinking, he looked up and saw that Dashuang's clothes were stained with dust. He hurriedly pulled her to his side and examined her carefully.

There was a clearly visible scratch on Dashuang's arm, with faint blood beads visible.

"Da Shuang, are you injured?" Zhou Yimo was anxious, his face slightly nervous, "Did those people hit you?"

Da Shuang shook her head and said that the bad guys had knocked Xier unconscious and thrown her into the car. When she ran up to pull them away, she was pushed to the ground by the bad guys and got scratched.

Da Shuang didn't care about the scratch on her arm. With tears in her eyes, she said anxiously, "Brother, I'm really fine. Go and save Sister Xier!"

"Go home first."

Zhou Yimo took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. He brushed the dust off Dashuang and touched her head.

"Don't cry, Dashuang. I'll find a way to deal with Xier. Let's go home first."

Upon hearing this, Da Shuang looked up at Zhou Yimo. Reassured by his gaze, Da Shuang nodded vigorously.

The little guy's eyes were red and swollen from crying, and now he is gradually calming down.

Zhou Yimo held her in his arms and rushed home together.

After the two rushed back home, Zhou Yimo found the yard in a mess.

What surprised him even more was that Zhou's mother was actually sitting on the floor in the main hall with a chair beside her. Xiaoshuang wanted to help her up, but he couldn't because he was too weak.

Seeing Zhou Yimo coming back, Xiao Shuang quickly called out, "Brother, come and help me."

"Mom, why are you here?" Zhou Yimo panicked and quickly put Dashuang on the ground. He quickly walked to Zhou's mother and helped her sit on a chair. "What did those people do to you?"

Dashuang also hurried over. She was a little nervous. When she went out just now, her mother was still in bed. Were those bad guys here again?

"Don't worry, Mom is fine." Mother Zhou shook her head and said helplessly:

"When I heard Xi'er was taken away, I got anxious and got up from the bed. I didn't expect to fall down when I stepped out of the room."

Zhou's mother is unable to walk due to illness in her legs. Li Qingqing has completed half of the treatment and has seen some success. She is expected to recover soon.

Now seeing Xier being abducted by a group of unidentified people, an instinctive force suddenly burst out from her, prompting her to stand up early.

Zhou Yimo was filled with mixed emotions. He hadn't told his mother that Xi'er was actually a child of the Zhou family in Kyoto. Unexpectedly, his mother treated Dashuang, Xiaoshuang, and Xi'er equally.

Zhou Yimo helped his mother lie down on the bed and said, "Mom, don't worry, my wife and I will definitely bring Xier back safely."

Mother Zhou nodded and remained silent.

She knew that Li Qingqing knew kung fu, but she had not returned yet and Xier was kidnapped again. She was a little worried that Xier might have met with an accident.

Zhou Yimo saw his mother's worry and comforted her, "Mom, don't worry, Xier's life is not in danger. If she was, she would have met with an accident when she was at our house."

After hearing this, Zhou's mother felt relieved. Indeed, if someone's life was really in danger, there would be no need to go through so much trouble to take the person away.

After settling Zhou's mother, Zhou Yimo thought for a moment, then said to Dashuang, "Dashuang, go ask Zhao's grandmother to help with lunch and dinner. I need to rush to Qiushui Town right away."

His wife was still in the mountains, and he didn't know when she would return home. The best solution he could come up with was to go find Xie Xuanan first.

If Xie Xuan'an knew that Liu Yuanwai had kidnapped the daughter of the Minister of Revenue, he would definitely send someone to rescue her, which would be much better than him just randomly finding some people.

Zhou Yimo ordered Dashuang to invite Zhao's grandmother, and Dashuang quickly responded and left.

Xiao Shuang stood aside, her eyes red. She tugged at Zhou Yimo's clothes, looked up at him, and a hint of anxiety was revealed in her childish voice, "Brother, will Sister Xier be okay?"

Zhou Yimo touched Xiaoshuang's head and comforted her:

"Don't worry, Xiaoshuang, Xi'er will be safe and sound. You and Dashuang must take good care of mother. When big sister comes back, ask her to find me at Zuiyuexuan Restaurant in Qiushui Town."

Xiao Shuang nodded and said, "I understand, big brother."

After Changshun and Shitou sold their prey today, they still had to go and inquire about some things about beeswax, so they would be back late.

Zhou Yimo didn't have time to wait for their ox cart, so he settled his family affairs and hurried to Zuiyuexuan.

Zhou Yimo didn't know where Xie Xuanan lived, so he could only ask Manager Qi.

When Shopkeeper Qi saw Zhou Yimo, he recognized him as the young master's distinguished guest. Also, Xie Xuan'an had given instructions, so he quickly invited him into the box.

"Mr. Zhou, please sit down for a moment. I will send someone to notify the young master immediately."

"Good work!"

After a few pleasantries, the two exchanged a few words, and then Manager Qi sent his servant to Xie Xuan'an's residence.

Zhou Yimo was patiently waiting for Xie Xuan'an's arrival, completely unaware that Xie Xuan'an was in huge trouble at the moment, with danger lurking everywhere and imminent.

Ever since the day when Mu Yunjing's shadow guard Yunying brought Zhou An's letter to Xie Xuan'an, Xie Xuan'an immediately sent two of his men to watch the blacksmith shop day and night. As expected, they discovered something extraordinary.

The blacksmith shop was open for business during the day, but at night, as speculated in the letter, a dozen or so craftsmen would get busy making weapons privately.

Last night, two of Xie Xuan'an's men discovered an ox cart loaded with iron ore delivering the goods to the blacksmith shop in the middle of the night.

After the ox cart unloaded the iron ore, baskets of forged weapons were loaded into the cart.

Two men hid in the dark and followed the ox cart closely.

The ox cart drove through the streets and alleys and stopped at a remote three-courtyard house. After unloading the weapons into the yard, he quietly drove the ox cart away from Qiu Shui Town and continued to head into the deep mountains.

It was dark at night and the ox cart was moving slowly. Two men followed the cart all the way and found that it had entered a cave hidden in the mountains and forests.

After the two men got closer, they realized that it was a huge iron ore cave. Torches were lit inside the cave, and the fire was bright. Workers were busy digging.

However, the bad thing was that Xie Xuan'an's two men were not well-trained spies.

This investigation was quickly discovered by the other side. The other side's iron mine cave was guarded by a master. A fierce battle broke out between the two sides. In the end, two of the men were killed and one was injured. The surviving men had a hard time passing the news back.

The sky gradually brightened.

As soon as Xie Xuan'an got the news, he immediately sent people to investigate who owned the three-courtyard house where the weapons were stored, and at the same time sent shadow guards to quickly catch up with Mu Yunjing and inform them of the discovery of the iron mine.

However, the discovery of the iron mine by Xie Xuan'an's men was immediately notified to Liu Yuanwai by the people guarding the cave.

Mr. Liu had long been on good terms with Governor Qian, and he had gotten from him that County Magistrate Xie was in Qiu Shui Town. Now he had also found the county government badge on the dead subordinate.

Now Mr. Liu was even more certain that it was County Magistrate Xie who had privately taken his 60,000 taels of silver.

Now the other party has discovered that he is illegally mining iron ore and manufacturing weapons, either of which is a capital crime punishable by death. Liu Yuanwai quickly sends his personal subordinate Bai Ye to intercept Xie Xuan'an.
