Chapter 56: The Shocking Cliff Swing Cable

One is unconscious on the couch, one is asking questions in front of her and has no idea, and there is an introverted little girl who can't beat a stick with a stick.

Hu Shiyu knew that there would be no results if he continued to ask, so he pulled Qingyun out of the room.

"Is she really hurt?"

After the two of them had walked dozens of steps, Qingyun asked in a low voice.

"I've checked, and there is indeed trauma to the head. It doesn't seem to be a forgery."

“It’s just that the timing is too coincidental.

The governor once said that Takahashi Ni had been practicing Qing Dynasty in Back Mountain for the longest time, and most of the strongholds in Back Mountain were managed by her.

However, she never reported the secret path to the governor.

If your guess is correct, this secret path should lead all the way to the back door of Lanruo Temple in Qianshan.

There is also a secret stronghold hidden in it, which may contain many people that the governor cares about."

"Yeah." Hu Shiyu was obviously a little uneasy. What he was most concerned about at this time was naturally Chonghua's safety.

He was about to summon a few capable men to take charge when he saw Liang Xiaosheng running towards him regardless of appearance.

Her robe had been torn in several places, with faint traces of blood seeping out. She was running so fast that her hair was all messed up, and she was breathing heavily.

"Have you met the enemy? Where is Chonghua?"

Hu Shiyu asked eagerly.

"I followed her footprints and lost her trace in front of a dense forest. Apart from this handkerchief, I didn't leave any clues."

Hu Shiyu hurriedly grabbed the handkerchief, but before it could be unfolded, a lot of ash-like powder fell down.

Although Xiao Chonghua is young, he is quirky and has great ideas.

She wrapped the incense ashes in a handkerchief. Could there be another hidden meaning?

Buzz, buzz, a bee was hovering in front of Hu Shiyu's eyes.

His mood was extremely bad at this time. He was so disturbed by the bee that he raised his hand to pat it.

"Wait a minute!"

Qingyun hurriedly took off Governor Hu's hand.

"what are you doing!"

Hu Shiyu was obviously a little annoyed.

But Qingyun was not in a hurry to defend himself, and just took out a poli bottle from his arms.

Because of its good-looking appearance, Qingyun begged this bottle from Liu Bijinduo and used it as a personal plaything.

He uncorked the wooden bottle, waved the bottle in the air, and covered the bee in the bottle, then immediately re-corked the bottle.

Hu Shiyu was anxious to find his daughter, but the boy next to him suddenly had a naughty spirit and wanted to catch bees. This made him so angry that he turned around and left after one Buddha was born and two Buddhas entered Nirvana.

Fortunately, Liang Xiaosheng was thoughtful. She felt that Qingyun's expression was not childish, so she must have discovered something special, so she grabbed the official's sleeve and said,

"Wait! I hope this little brother has something to say."

Hu Shiyu was pulled by his wife and felt out of control. Knowing that he was a little anxious just now, he said angrily,

"Brother Qing, do you have any advice?"

Qingyun nodded hurriedly,

"Can I borrow that brocade handkerchief from junior to take a look at?"

When Hu Shiyu saw Qingyun asking this question, he naturally understood that he was also worried about Xiao Chonghua's affairs. He felt even more frightened and hurriedly handed over the handkerchief.

Qingyun held the brocade handkerchief to his nose, sniffed it, nodded frequently and said,

"That's right! That's what it tastes like!"

The Hu couple were confused by Qingyun's mindless behavior, but they didn't know how to ask.

Fortunately, Qingyun didn't let them wait too long and started answering questions.

"I've smelled the smell on this veil before.

It was the first time I met Takahashi Ni. The temple halfway up the Seven Buddhas Peak was filled with this fragrance.

At that time, my eldest brother was quarreling with two Japanese girls, and I was so bored that I was counting flying insects. At that time, I discovered that there were such bees gathering in the courtyard.

Today, the same fragrance remains on Xiao Chonghua's brocade handkerchief, which attracts bees again.

Now that I think about it, I'm afraid it's because of the incense ash.

I once heard my second brother say that bees have an excellent sense of smell, so their ability to track odors is extremely strong.

The bees in front of me should be easily attracted to certain scents.

And this incense was probably deliberately made by Takahashi Ni to attract bees.

The activity of a large number of bees can guide others to follow the bees to where the fragrance comes from.

Although Xiao Chonghua is young, he is very alert.

She must have encountered something important and was kidnapped.

So I deliberately left the brocade handkerchief stained with incense ashes, hoping it could be used as a clue."

Liang Xiaosheng became anxious upon hearing this.

"Then what should we do? Will they kill Chonghua and silence him?"

Qingyun shook his head and said,

"As long as they know Xiao Chonghua's identity, they won't deliberately create difficulties."

Hu Shiyu closed his eyes slightly and shook his head frequently.

Of course he knew that if Xiao Chonghua's identity was exposed, although his life would be safe, he would definitely be treated as a price to deal with him.

Naturally, he would not ask those insignificant questions like Mr. Liang, so he spoke directly,

"Since Qing Xiaoxia said so, he must have already thought of a solution, right?"

"Whether it will work or not, I can't tell now.

But it is said that in addition to their keen sense of smell, bees are also very capable of identifying paths based on sunlight and terrain.

This kind of bee teaches bees to be big and wasps to be thin. Could it be a special species raised artificially?

I put it in this bottle to isolate the smell, hoping that it would find the light and take us back to its lair."

"Xiao Sheng, you first lead Qing Xiaoxia to the place where Chonghua disappeared and mark the place along the way.

I'll find some helpers and they'll be here right away."

When Liang Xiaosheng was not married to Hu Shiyu, she was a leader among the secret spies who protected justice.

The slight panic just now was just due to excessive worry about Chonghua.

At this time, when she heard that Qingyun might have a plan, she felt reassured and immediately returned to her former demeanor.

She led Qingyun along the way and came to the edge of a dense forest.

Hu Shiyu arrived not too slowly, and his troops were more skilled than more numerous.

The two female generals behind him were both heroic and acquaintances of Qingyun, they were Meng Junting and Yuan Chuntuo.

When Qingyun saw that the people had arrived, he raised the bottle of Poly in his hand. The bee flapped its wings desperately in the bottle and stuck to the side of the bottle wall, which was the direction into the forest.

Following Feng'er's guidance, everyone found a gap in the forest.

Faintly, it seems that some broken branches and footprints can still be seen, as if someone has indeed walked through.

Qingyun walked in the front holding a bottle of poli, and the rest of the people filed in.

After everyone groped for about a mile, Liang Xiaosheng suddenly let out a sigh, rushed forward a few steps, and picked up a wishful knot tied with red thread from the fallen maple leaf by the light of the stars passing through the gaps between the leaves.

What a strong eyesight, Qingyun couldn't help but admire him secretly.

"I made this wishful knot for Chonghua, and she has indeed been here before!"

Liang Xiaosheng's voice was urgent. Although it couldn't be said to be joyful, she at least saw some hope.

No one paused for a moment because of this little episode.

They are all smart people, and they all know that finding Xiao Chonghua as soon as possible is the key, and there is no time left for them to sigh.

On the contrary, this wishful knot brought them confidence and added motivation.
