Chapter 171: Safe and sound

Lin Shuran asked Xu Mingchen and Xu Mingye to take care of their brothers at home, and then she took Lingqin and Feiyue to the farm of the General's Mansion in the south of the city.

Chengnan Farm is located in the capital city, and is adjacent to a large mountain range. Among the rolling mountains are cliffs, lakes, ponds, waterfalls and streams can be seen. There are many wild beasts hidden among the dense forests. Very few people usually see them.

Enter.

When they arrived at the farm, Lin Shuran found several groups of soldiers gathered outside the village. They were all going into the mountains to catch tigers. Wu Bao, the one-eyed farm steward of the General's Palace, was chatting with Zhang Min, the Governor of the Capital Palace.

When Lin Shuran arrived, both of them came to greet her.

"Lord Zhang is here too!" Lin Shuran got off the carriage and walked towards the two of them. Seeing the seriousness on the face of the governor Zhang Min, he knew that Black Tiger had hurt people in the city, and he, the governor of the capital, had a big responsibility.

Zhang Min smiled bitterly and replied: "I have seen the general's wife. The black tiger fled into the mountains. The Holy One has ordered that we must catch this evil beast. Otherwise, I will not be the governor of the capital."

Yin."

"Thank you for your hard work, Master Zhang. Only by catching the black tiger as soon as possible can the Holy Emperor and the people feel at ease. Steward Wu, is there no news about Brother Xuan yet?" Lin Shuran greeted Zhang Min and turned anxiously to Wu Bao, the steward of the farm.

Wu Bao was over fifty years old. He was tall and thick-set and looked very energetic. He was a rough man who crawled out from among the dead. He always had a loud voice when he spoke to everyone. So when Lin Shuran asked, his voice was...

As if it was exploding in people's ears, he replied: "Madam, the Eighth Young Master hasn't come back yet. The younger one has already sent all the people from the farm out to look for him. Just now Master Zhang also promised to let the people who go into the mountain to look for Black Tiger

Pay attention to the whereabouts of the Eighth Young Master."

At this time, Zhang Min was also comforting the anxious Lin Shuran and said, "Madam, don't be anxious. The eighth young master of your house has entered the mountain from another direction, and he should not be able to meet the black tiger."

"I hope so. Since I have troubled Mr. Zhang so much, why not ask him to wait in the village first!" Lin Shuran asked Wu Bao to prepare some tea benches in the front yard of the village, and asked Zhang Min and the people with him to have a place to rest, and then

She went to the backyard and asked Lingqin, Feiyue and the others to go into the mountain to look for Xu Mingxuan.

Seeing that the sun was about to set, there was no news from either Heihu or Xu Mingxuan. Not long after, Xu Junze arrived at the farm in the south of the city. When Lin Shuran saw him, she dared to relax a little.

"There's no news from Brother Xuan yet!" Lin Shuran sat for a long time, stood up suddenly, and almost fell down when her body went limp. Xu Junze quickly stepped forward and took her into his arms.

"Don't worry, the Dragon Armor Guard has already gone into the mountain to look for him!" Xu Junze patted Lin Shuran's back gently. Lin Shuran was frightened by his stepsons, so he must teach them more harshly later.

.

Fortunately, less than half an hour later, Feiyue came back first, saying that they had found Xu Mingxuan and the people from Tianzhuang. On the way down the mountain, they happened to meet the Longjia Guard, and now the Longjia Guards were escorting them together.

Coming back.

After hearing the news that Xu Mingxuan was safe and sound, Lin Shuran felt completely at ease. It was good that she had not encountered any danger.

After Xu Mingxuan returned to the farm, he came to Xu Junze and Lin Shuran with some guilt and timidity. He proactively admitted his mistake and said, "Father, mother, I was wrong. I shouldn't have gone into the mountain today."

Lin Shuran glanced at Xu Junze who was sitting next to him. He had a cold face. Not to mention that Xu Mingxuan was frightened after seeing it. She also sensed a hint of fear of the coming storm and quickly said in a gentle tone: "I heard Wu

The steward said that you usually just go play in the nearby mountains and be back in half an hour at most. Why did it take you so long today?"

Xu Mingxuan thought that Lin Shuran would be as harsh to him as Xu Junze. Seeing that she was still as close to nature as usual, he suddenly felt extremely aggrieved and cried loudly, "Wow--".

But Xu Junze slammed the table next to him and said sternly: "Why are you crying? Do you know how worried your mother is about you? Don't cry!" qδ

As a man, he cries at every turn. How can he evade responsibility and punishment by crying? Xu Junze glared at Xu Mingxuan fiercely. It was obvious that Xu Mingxuan was frightened. His body could not help but tremble and he took a step back. Then he burst into tears and hiccupped.

.

"Don't do this

It was so loud, it scared me!" Lin Shuran had also seen Xu Junze lose his temper with the children. This time he was probably really anxious and worried, so he seemed more severe. Then she stood up and walked to Xu Mingxuan, blocking Xu Junze from looking at him.

With a stern look, he said softly, "Your father is just too worried that you will be in danger. Don't be afraid. It's okay. A black tiger ran out of the city today and hurt people. This black tiger hid in the mountains again. We all

I’m afraid you’ll get hurt if you encounter it.”

Xu Mingxuan's tears were streaming down his face. He nodded and said aggrievedly: "Mom, I've heard what Sister Lingqin said. It's not that I don't want to come back so soon. It's that I encountered a ghost after I entered the mountain and I couldn't come out.

,wuwuwu..."

"How dare you talk nonsense!" Xu Junze's tone was still serious, but his voice was much lower. He was worried that he would scare Lin Shuran again, and he didn't want her to think that he was a cruel and unreasonable person.

Xu Mingxuan looked up at Lin Shuran eagerly and explained: "Mom, I didn't lie. Really, if you don't believe it, ask the two people who went into the mountain with me, the three of us are trapped in the mountain!"

Lin Shuran saw that Xu Mingxuan didn't look like he was lying, and soon Xu Junze asked Wu Bao to call the two people who went into the mountain with Xu Mingxuan today and ask them what was going on.

The two people told Xu Junze and Lin Shuran that they encountered ghosts in the mountains and were always stuck in one place and couldn't get out, so they delayed their return until now, and the three of them hadn't eaten anything all day.

Folks have heard a lot about ghosts breaking into walls. Although Lin Shuran and Xu Junze have never experienced it personally, they know that such mysterious things also exist, and Xu Mingxuan obviously seems to have been frightened.

"Manager Wu, hurry up and ask the cook to prepare some food!" Upon hearing that Xu Mingxuan had not eaten all day, Lin Shuran felt distressed and immediately ordered Wu Bao to let the kitchen cook, then bent down and hugged Xu Mingxuan gently, "Today

You must have been scared. It’s okay now. Let’s go home after eating something. My brothers are still waiting for you at home!”

"Mom——" After a day of panic and encounters, Xu Mingxuan could no longer bear it. He hugged Lin Shuran and cried loudly, and Lin Shuran hugged him back to comfort him.
