“Erhu, where are you?”
Dahu looked around the garden but could not find Erhu. He gave up on the game and began to call out to his brother seriously.
“I admit defeat. Erhu, come out.”
Dahu was a very vigilant baby.
His brother’s safety was above the outcome of the game.
“Erhu, did you hear that? I admit defeat. I’ll still look for you in the next round.
Come out first.”
No matter how Dahu shouted, Erhu did not come out to respond.
Ling Yun walked over.
Dahu grabbed his hand and said, “Master, Erhu is gone.”
Ling Yun frowned and looked around.
He had never been to the City Lord Manor and was not familiar with the terrain.
However, since there were no guards stopping them, it meant that this garden was accessible for children to play. There should be no danger.
For example, the forbidden area in the east corner was strictly guarded by guards. Just as the two children ran to the door, they were stopped by the
guards and asked to play elsewhere.
Dahu said worriedly, “Master, Erhu is very timid. He will be afraid on his own.”
Although the three little ones were all bold when they were together, Erhu was the most insecure of the three little ones once they were separated.
“Yeah.”
Ling Yun responded to Dahu and sized up his surroundings carefully again.
There was nothing special about this small garden. No one could hide behind the flowers. There were a few loquat trees, but they were not tall. The leaves were not lush.
No matter how he looked at it, Erhu wouldn’t be here.
However, Erhu had clearly run over just now.
He couldn’t have just disappeared into thin air.
Ling Yun passed through the small garden. This seemed to be a corner of the City Lord Manor, surrounded by high courtyard walls.
Could it be that Erhu had climbed over the wall and left? Dahu sniffed. “It smells so good! There are fruits! Erhu likes fruits the most!” At this moment, Ling Yun vaguely heard Erhu’s voice.
Erhu was halfway up the tree when a hand suddenly grabbed his ankle. He trembled in fear.
He turned around and saw a thin man with disheveled hair.
This was a person who would scare any child to tears, but the three little ones were extremely tolerant of appearances.
Erhu was not frightened. He asked curiously, “Great-grandpa, why are you grabbing my feet?”
The other party had white hair and was about the same age as Qin Canglan, the Old Marquis, and Elder Qiu, so Erhu politely called him Great-grandpa.
The other party said nothing.
Erhu thought for a moment and asked, “Do you want to eat fruits too? I’ll pluck them for you.”
The other party still didn’t say anything or let go.
Erhu sighed. “If you keep holding onto me like this, I won’t be able to pluck them for you.”
The other party used some strength and pulled Erhu down.
Erhu cried out and fell from the tree.
When the Saintess rushed to the orchard, she happened to see this scene.
Without a word, she took out the white silk and rolled Erhu over from the soft grass, gently placing him behind her.
Then, she took out her nine-section whip and lashed it at the man in the wheelchair.
Just as the whip was about to land on the man’s head, a tall figure descended from the sky and stood in front of the man, grabbing the Saintess’ nine-section whip!
There were blade blades on the whip.
However, the man was wearing protective gear and was not afraid of the whip blade.
The Saintess sensed a familiar aura from the other party.
She seemed… to have met her kind.
The two of them fought fiercely.
The Saintess lashed her whip extremely quickly and fiercely.
The other party took a few whips, but his attacks were not inferior. The Saintess took a few slaps from him.
