Xia Shui insisted that he would definitely be fine. Xia Lin and Xia Qing immediately pestered him and said, “Then we will come along too!”
Xia Shui immediately pulled a long face. “No, you can’t go! Study at home and prepare dinner before Father and Mother come back.”
Xia Lin and Xia Qing looked at each other and agreed obediently on the surface. But after he left, they picked up the sack, and quietly followed.
When Xia Shui discovered them, what was done was done. He would naturally ask them to stay and help.
Even in the city, it was foggy. Xia Shui did not notice Xia Lin and Xia Qing at all.
After walking for about half an hour, the fog became heavier. He could vaguely see towering trees at the edge of the forest.
Xia Shui was delighted. He was almost there.
He quickened his pace and entered the forest.
Xia Qing and Xia Lin quickly followed.
When they entered the forest, the fog that filled the sky was like a ghost, entangling everywhere. In the blink of an eye, Xia Shui was gone.
They could have gone back, but they were afraid that their brother was in danger, so they took a few steps in. “Brother, Brother, Brother—!!!”
They shouted, but the only response was frightened birds.
Xia Lin said fearfully, “Let’s go back and tell Father and Mother first!”
Xia Qing nodded. “Yes, let’s go back quickly.”
They ran in the opposite direction for a long time, but they were still stuck in the forest. The vegetation was even thicker, and the visibility was getting lower because of the fog.
Xia Lin couldn’t help but guess fearfully, “Don’t tell me we’re lost?”
Xia Qing’s face turned pale as he shouted in panic, “Brother, Father, Mother!!!”
The only response they got was a quiet echo.
In an instant, the two children felt their blood run cold. They were terrified and panicked to the extreme.
They ran through the forest like headless flies.
When Old Master and Madam Xia returned home, it was pitch-black and quiet.
They lit the oil lamp. The apartment was empty.
Old Madam Xia was puzzled. “Where did the children go to play?”
Old Master Xia frowned. “It’s already dark. They’re not insensible children. I don’t think they are playing.”
Old Madam Xia panicked. “Did something happen to them?”
“Some time ago, the Yan family killed someone and threw his corpse into the sea.”
The more Old Madam Xia thought about it, the more flustered she became. Old Master Xia suppressed the uneasiness in his heart and comforted her. “Don’t panic first. Go ask the neighbors first. I’ll ask the dormitory manager!”
Old Madam Xia and Father Xia acted separately.
“Not long after lunch, I saw the three children go out one after another,” said the dormitory manager.
Since they had gone out, they would eventually come back.
But it was already after dinnertime!!!
Old Madam Xia was so anxious that tears were about to fall.
Old Master Xia still had some rationality left. He asked the dormitory manager again, “Which direction did they go in? Did they take anything out?”
Xia Shui often sneaked into the mountains to dig for herbs. Father Xia suspected that they had entered the mountains together.
The dormitory manager thought for a moment. “The older one carried a basket on his back. I didn’t see clearly for the younger two.”
With that, he pointed in a direction for Father Xia.
Father Xia’s heart skipped a beat. He was 100% sure that the three little brats had entered the mountain.
Everyone in Carefree City was forbidden to enter the mountain. It could be seen how dangerous it was to enter the mountain.
Old Master Xia went to look for them alone. The area was too wide and it was not easy to find them at all. He said to Old Madam Xia, “Go find our relatives for help and prepare to enter the mountain. I’ll go to the patrol camp to look for the officials.”
“Okay, okay, okay.”
Not long after, the news of the three children’s disappearance spread like a bolt of lightning cutting through the night in Carefree City.
Wang Qiong gathered some men and entered the mountain. Every patrol team member was equipped with torches, flashlights, headlamps, and first-aid kits. If they found the child, they could immediately take care of him.
It was noisy outside. Huang Zhong stood at the window on the second floor of his house. The flames that kept heading to the forest were like fireflies with a target.
Not long after, Wang Qiong raised his torch and arrived at the entrance of his villa, shouting, “Zhong’er, Zhong’er, it’s time to work!”
Huang Zhong was stunned. Why was there work for him in the middle of the night?
As soon as he went to open the door, Wang Qiong said anxiously, “Three children have entered the mountain. Hurry up and put on another set of clothes. Come into the mountain with our patrol team to look for the children. Your sense of smell is sharp. The earlier we find time, the less likelihood they are in danger.”
Huang Zhong did not hesitate at all. He returned to his room, put on a coat, leather boots, and quickly set off with Wang Qiong.
Huang Zhong stood at the edge of the forest, closed his eyes, and sniffed hard. The faint smell of the children instantly appeared in his mind.
Wang Qiong asked nervously, “How is it? Can you determine the location?”
Huang Zhong’s expression was solemn. “The children should have been separated. The smell is coming from different directions. The humidity in the forest is very strong. If we can’t find them in time, the smell will gradually dissipate, making it even harder to find them.”
“I can bring you in a general direction.” He continued, “Uncle, you can look for Xiaobai. Its sense of smell is even more sensitive than mine. If the Great Empress knows about this, she will definitely agree to let Xiaobai save people.”
It was an emergency. Wang Qiong quickly nodded. “Okay.”
Bai Wutong had long received the news. When Wang Qiong arrived, Xiaobai was already sitting obediently and waiting.
Bai Wutong put on its handsome work clothes and grabbed one of its big claws. “Xiaobai, you can do it. I’ll give you an additional drumstick when you come back.”
Xiaobai’s eyes lit up. He extended his other paw and bargained for two.
Bai Wutong chuckled. “Glutton. Alright, two then!”
The addition of drumsticks instantly attracted the playful Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter. Their furry heads kept rubbing against Bai Wutong, expressing strongly that they also wanted to eat the drumstick and go on missions with Xiaobai.
They were still too young and wild. They would not listen to instructions at all.
Bai Wutong did not let them go.
Xiaobai moved very quickly in the forest. When the patrol team was struggling to keep up, it would slow down and wait for them.
The forest was dark. Fortunately, some genius had invented fluorescent clothes, so they could see Xiaobai’s location clearly in the dark environment.
Otherwise, they would be the ones who would get lost in minutes.
After a while, Xiaobai suddenly howled and ran in a direction.
Everyone hurriedly caught up.
It had been a long time since Xia Shui had stepped into a trap and was hanging from a tree. He was cold and hungry. From time to time, he heard the roars of wild beasts and was even more afraid.
Suddenly, a strange light shot towards him.
Xia Shui shouted in shock, “Help! Help!!!”
He struggled with all his might. The beautiful, long howl of the wolf calmed him.
Xia Shui mustered his courage and looked over. It was the Great Empress’s beloved pet—Xiaobai!
With it came the gradually approaching flames.
Xia Shui shouted excitedly, “I’m here, I’m here. Help! Help!!!”
Wang Qiong was also very excited and quickly saved him.
Xia Shui was saved and immediately asked, “Sir, where’s my brother? They also followed me into the mountains. Have they returned home?”
Since they could not contact Huang Zhong, Wang Qiong did not know the exact situation. “We’ve already sent someone to look for them. There will be news soon. Don’t worry.”
If he had not insisted on entering the mountain, his younger brothers would not have followed him.
Xia Shui was filled with regret. He hurriedly knelt on the ground and cried and kowtowed to Xiaobai. “Lord Wolf God, please help me find my younger brothers.. Please!”
