Su Zheng said with a pained expression, “Lin Ning, you’re so stupid. Hurry up and run! At this time, it’s more important to save your life!” Lin Ning walked straight towards Su Zheng and stared at him coldly.
“Where did you go in the middle of the night on March twenty-sixth?” Su Zheng was stunned when he heard Lin Ning’s words.
“How can I remember that? It’s been months already. How can I remember it clearly?!”
“Is that so? Do you really not remember? Then let me remind you. That night, the moon was shining brightly. When you came back from outside, I happened to bump into you outside your house. I asked you where you were going, but you said that you went out to pee!”Lin Ning reminded him.
Su Zheng was stunned when he heard this.
“Huh? Which day? I really don’t remember!”
When Lin Ning saw the man in front of him, he stood up.
“That night, I smelled my mother’s scent on you! In addition to my good eyesight, I also have a good sense of smell!”
With that, Lin Ning strode into the cave.
Lin Ning glanced at the group of people in the cave, then looked at Li Xiaoran and Shu Ruyue.
“Who just spoke to me?!”
Seeing this, Li Xiaoran quickly said, “It’s me! We really saw your mother!” Shu Ruyue was a little confused and had no idea what Li Xiaoran was talking about.
Lin Ning walked forward and wanted to approach, but Luo Cheng stopped him.
“What do you want to do?”
Li Xiaoran could sense that Lin Ning had no ill intentions towards her, so she Dulled her husband.
“Husband, it’s fine. He doesn’t have any ill intentions!”
When Luo Cheng heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he moved aside.
When Lin Ning was only two steps away from Li Xiaoran and Shu Ruyue, his expression changed drastically.
“Where have you seen my mother?”
Li Xiaoran explained, “It’s in this underground passageway! After we fell into the medicinal field, we fell asleep for an unknown period of time. When we woke up again, we realized that we were in a pit and that there was a closed door not far away. After we opened the door, we walked out along the passageway. After walking for an unknown period of time, we discovered another pit. There was also a door. After we opened the door, we found your mother!”
Hearing this, Shu Ruyue immediately understood.
“Xiaoran, you’re saying that the woman we carried is his mother?”
Li Xiaoran asked, “Yes! Ruyue, take a closer look. Does the woman we carried look a little similar to the young man in front of us?”
Shu Ruyue didn’t notice it at first, but now that she observed carefully, she realized that the two of them really looked alike.
Lin Ning could already smell his mother’s scent from the two of them, and it was very strong. They had probably just met his mother not long ago and even had direct contact with her.
Otherwise, these two people wouldn’t have his mother’s scent. Therefore, he believed that what Li Xiaoran said was true.
“Then why don’t I see my mother?” Lin Ning asked.
When Li Xiaoran heard Lin Ning’s words, she didn’t hide the truth anymore.
“Ruyue was carrying your mother on her back. I dragged your mother’s back with my hand from behind and we searched for a way out together. Originally, we planned to bring your mother along, but when we were looking for a way out, we discovered a huge pit and opened the door again.”
Shu Ruyue added, “The pit was filled with unconscious women. The two of us couldn’t take those people away at all. Besides, we weren’t sure how long it would take to find a way out, so we could only put your mother with those women. We planned to come out to find them first and resolve Shatai Village’s matter. After confirming that there was no danger around, we planned to bring people to save the women inside!”
Lin Ning wasn’t angry when he heard Li Xiaoran and Shu Ruyue’s words.
Because he also knew that if he had encountered such a thing, he would have found a way out as soon as possible as well.
Lin Ning asked Third Master Xue, “Uncle Xue, do you know anything about underground tunnels?”
Third Master Xue shook his head and said, “You also know that I’ve only been here for a short time, so how would I know how to get to the underground tunnel?! You’ve been by Su Zheng’s side all this time, but even you don’t know about the underground tunnel?”
Lin Ning shook his head and sighed softly.
“He never mentioned anything about the underground tunnel to me.” Third Master Xue looked at Lin Ning sympathetically.
“It seems that he doesn’t trust you completely. Instead, he’s been guarding against you! ”
Lin Ning’s face was expressionless. Now, he was more concerned about where his mother was.
However, he wasn’t familiar with the underground tunnel, so he didn’t dare to enter rashly to search.
Lin Ning thought of something and asked Luo Cheng, “Su Zheng, did you really drug him and he won’t live much longer?
Luo Cheng raised his eyebrows and nodded.
“That’s right. We have to send him to the officials!”
Lin Ning thought for a moment and said, “Give him to me. I’ll let him bring me to my mother! If you agree, I’ll sell my life to you. I’ll work for you in the future!”
Luo Cheng smiled when he heard this.
“Looks like you’re very confident in your abilities!”
Lin Ning said, “You’ve seen my abilities before, so what do you think of my suggestion?”
Luo Cheng looked at Lin Ning. For some reason, he saw himself in this young man.
Unfortunately, he wasn’t as lucky as the young man in front of him.
Because his mother was already gone.
Li Xiaoran said, “Husband, let Shu Ruyue, Wu Qinghe, and I bring Su Zheng along! It’s time to save those people in the tunnel! Now that Shatai Village is leaderless, it’s the best chance for you to take down Shatai Village. It’s safer for the few of us to go into the tunnel!”
Luo Cheng frowned when he heard Li Xiaoran’s words.
“Xiaoran, there might be unknown danger in the tunnel!”
“Husband, it’s also very dangerous outside. Other people might use me to threaten you! Therefore, I might as well stay in the tunnel and save those who need me to save them. Besides, with me, Shu Ruyue, and Wu Qinghe around, nothing will happen to us!”
Upon seeing Li Xiaoran’s determined gaze, Luo Cheng finally gave in.
Luo Cheng stared at Li Xiaoran and said, “Then you have to remember to protect yourself! If something happens to you, I don’t know what I’ll do!” Li Xiaoran laughed when she heard Luo Cheng’s words.
“Don’t worry! I cherish my life and won’t take risks easily! You know my abilities. I’ll be fine!”
Luo Cheng understood what Li Xiaoran meant and could only agree to let her go into the tunnel again.
Lin Ning thought of something and said, “I know there’s a night pearl in Su
Zheng’s room. It’s under the bed where he sleeps.. I can bring you guys to get
