Chapter 473: Snow on the Desk of the Infatuated Alliance Leader (75)
At this time, Jiang Yide's voice came from behind them.
"Jiang Langyu, what are you doing?"
Elder Wu saluted promptly: "Master, you are here too?"
Jiang Yide waved his hand: "Alas, I'm really worried."
Elder Wu said ashamedly: "Master, we haven't found anyone in the back mountain yet..."
"I'm relieved now that we haven't found them." Jiang Yide sighed, "The mountain road is difficult to walk on. It would be great if they could get down the mountain safely."
Hearing this, Elder Wu felt that he could not afford to waste even a moment.
"Master, please wait here. The Young Master and I will go into the mountains to look for him. If we find any trace of him, we will report it to you immediately."
Jiang Yide shook his head.
"No need, I'll go in too."
Elder Wu knew that the owner of the manor was concerned about his wife and children, so he did not refute: "Yes."
Elder Wu turned around and arranged for his men: "Those of you who are good at Qinggong, follow us in."
"Yes!"
Those who were called out went to get torches.
Elder Wu paused when he saw this. He suddenly remembered what Bai Chao had just said: "Wait..."
"What's the elder's order?"
"The person in front can just hold a torch, and the people behind can hold lanterns. Don't let everyone hold torches."
"Huh? It's..."
Elder Wu and Jiang Yide went into the mountains together, and Bai Chao followed them.
Along the way, Elder Wu looked for people and comforted Jiang Yide, fearing that their owner would not be able to hold on and would become depressed.
Bai Chao was like a transparent person, not saying a word all the way.
The roads on this mountain are in a mess, and finding someone is like a headless fly.
As time went by, Jiang Yide's expression became worse and worse, and he was no longer in the mood to listen to what the elder was saying.
He knew how big the back mountain was, so he asked everyone to come to the back mountain to look for someone immediately.
But I didn’t expect that even though half of the people on the mountain were there, we still haven’t found them.
Jiang Yide had everything planned out, and the time and route of Liu Yun's departure were also under his control, but he didn't expect something to go wrong along the way.
Why did the carriage suddenly change lanes...
Suddenly, a voice from the front shouted, "Found it!"
Elder Wu's face lit up with joy, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Master."
Jiang Yide's brows relaxed slightly: "Go and have a look quickly."
"Yes."
But when they passed by, they saw nothing but a cliff with a cold wind blowing.
Jiang Yide looked at the person who was shouting, and his voice was hard to hide the gloom: "What did you find?"
The servant bowed his head and handed over what he had found: "It's... it's broken wood from the carriage..."
Elder Wu's heart sank to the bottom of the valley, and his voice trembled: "Could it be the lady's carriage..."
Jiang Yide grabbed the fragment, which was a piece of red date wood, the axle of a carriage.
He lowered his head and saw a few pieces of debris on the ground.
"..." Jiang Yide had already confirmed that it was Liu Yun's carriage that fell off the cliff.
Elder Wu still held onto a hope: "Master, this may not be Madam's carriage...what if it belongs to someone else..."
At this time, another person found something on the edge of the cliff.
"This is the lady's handkerchief!"
"what?!"
Elder Wu hurried over, took the handkerchief from the servant and looked it over.
The handkerchief presented by the servant was embroidered with a gold thread orchid.
Everyone in the villa knew that Jiang Yingchu loved orchids.
"..."
Elder Wu felt sad.
I'm afraid the Madam and the Miss are in great danger...
"..."
Elder Wu calmed his panicked mind, grabbed the torch from the person next to him, walked to the edge of the cliff and carefully checked for traces of the carriage falling.
The cliff is so deep that you can't see anything below.
A servant said, "Elder, shall we go down the mountain and take a look?"
Although Elder Wu was anxious, he still shook his head.
It’s too dark now. It’s hard to find the right direction to go down the mountain, which will only waste time.
I still have to think of a way...
Elder Wu stood up and looked at Jiang Yide: "Master, these marks clearly showed that the fall had just happened not long ago..."
The surface of the handkerchief hanging on the edge of the cliff is clean, and the marks of dragging on the cliff are clear.
All of this proves that the carriage must have fallen down not long ago.
If I had come to the back mountain to look for someone earlier, maybe the result would not have been like this.
They were a step too late...
Jiang Yide reached out and took the orchid handkerchief handed to him by Elder Wu. After seeing the gold thread clearly, he seemed to have aged a lot in an instant.
"The owner of the village..."
Elder Wu saw that Jiang Yide was not in good condition and could only console him, "Master, although this cliff is dangerous, it is not a dead end. There are many vines under the cliff. Maybe the bushes blocked some of the force when the carriage fell. It may not be..."
Elder Wu stopped talking, as he knew that his words were untenable.
How can there be so much luck in this world?
But Jiang Yide immediately raised his head and said, "Elder Wu, you are right. If they are in the carriage, they may be fine. My wife's carriage is made of the best material. It will definitely not break easily!"
"..."
Elder Wu nodded and said, "Okay, Master, I'll get more people over right away and have them climb down the cliff with ropes. We'll definitely be able to find the Madam and the Young Lady!"
"Thank you, Elder Wu."
Elder Wu hurried away with a torch.
Silence returned to the cliffside, with only two servants left holding torches to illuminate the area.
"..."
Jiang Yide stared at the cliff, the veins on the back of his hand holding the handkerchief began to throb, and the anger and anxiety in his heart could no longer be concealed.
This emergency was completely out of his control.
It was clear that the arrangement for tonight was just to make Liu Yun disappear naturally, but he never expected that she would actually disappear, and even drag his daughter into falling off the cliff!
Jiang Yide suddenly turned his head and glared at Bai Chao, who was leaning against a tree trunk with his arms folded behind him.
If it weren't for this kid who delayed him and caused him to hear the news late... otherwise, he might have found the person long ago!
Jiang Yide was so angry that he slapped him directly.
But Bai Chao seemed to have known that Jiang Yide was going to attack him, and he raised his hand and grabbed the slap that Jiang Yide was about to slap him.
Jiang Yide's hand was forced to stay in mid-air.
His face was full of disbelief. This evil boy had really grown strong enough to actually dare to resist him!
"Jiang Langyu! Do you dare to fight back?"
Bai Chao threw away Jiang Yide's hand with a smile.
"Master, if you want to punish me again, at least consider the circumstances, right?"
