Chapter 1422: The Big Boss Takes Action
Editor: Atlas Studios
On the silent mountain road, the night was as dark as ink. There was no light.
Elder Qiu and Nie Jinfeng stepped on the bumpy forest path.
“Take a break.”
Elder Qiu looked at Nie Jinfeng, who was sweating profusely, and said, “We’ve been walking for a day and a night. My body can’t take it.”
“I can still take it!”
Nie Jinfeng panted.
She was about to see her son. Not to mention a mere mountain, she would not stop even if there were ten.
After all, she had been on this path for more than thirty years, almost forty.
“I’ll carry you.”
Elder Qiu stood in front of Nie Jinfeng.
“Go away!”
Nie Jinfeng refused. “Your current cultivation is inferior to mine!”
Elder Qiu hesitated.
If he wanted to use the ruse of self-injury, he had to use it to the end. Otherwise, if he was exposed, he would be the unlucky one.
“I still have my qinggong.” Elder Qiu said.
Nie Jinfeng glared at him. “Then walk faster! Find your son first!”
Elder Qiu was speechless. He used the unique skill he had learned from his disciple and said shamelessly, “I can’t see clearly at night. It’s not good to walk alone at night.”
After crossing this mountain, the two of them arrived at a quiet village.
There were not many farmers here, only more than 20.
Because it was late at night, everyone was asleep. Only a few puppies in the village barked.
Elder Qiu went over one by one and was scolded badly by the aunties and uncles who were woken up by him.
This was the first time the number one mysterious expert of Thousand Mountain Island had suffered such treatment.
Even in the tribes that had once lived in seclusion in the southern border, no villager dared to provoke him. They all treated him as a monster and had to take a detour when they saw him. How could they dare to scold him?
Elder Qiu was polite.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry…”
“Hmph!”
An aunt slammed the door hard on Elder Qiu’s face.
Elder Qiu was dejected and looked embarrassed.
Nie Jinfeng wanted to laugh.
“Laugh,” Elder Qiu said. “There’s no need to hold it in.”
Nie Jinfeng said seriously, “There’s still one left.”
It was the last one.
Nie Jinfeng’s mood suddenly darkened.
There were a total of four places that Ji Wanru had given her. This was the last one. If they still couldn’t find it, their son might never be found.
With an uneasy heart, the two of them arrived at the last house.
Elder Qiu slowly raised his hand and knocked on the door.
“Who is it?”
An old voice came from inside the house.
“I’m here to look for someone. Is there a person called Dongsheng here?”
“Are you looking for Dongsheng?”
As soon as the old voice fell, the sound of someone getting up came from the house again.
Nie Jinfeng and Elder Qiu’s emotions were instantly in their throats.
Could this Dongsheng… be their son?
Creak—
The wooden door that had been in disrepair for a long time was pulled open from the inside. An old man with a hunched back and white hair looked at the two of them with empty eyes, trying to see their appearance.
He was about the same age as Elder Qiu, but he was already old and inferior to martial arts practitioners.
Elder Qiu hurriedly cupped his hands politely. “Yes, we’re here to look for Dongsheng.”
“Who are you?” the old man asked in a hoarse voice.
Old Qiu said, “We have a son. He was born more than 30 years ago and was carried away when he was born. His name is Dongsheng.”
“Ah…”
The old man thought for a long time, as if recalling something. “It’s been about 37 to 38 years ago, right?”
Elder Qiu and Nie Jinfeng’s eyes lit up!
“That’s right!”
Nie Jinfeng said.
Elder Qiu bowed. “Thank you!” freewёbnoνel.com
