By this time, the rain had gradually stopped, but the sky had become completely dark.
Li Jie's mother-in-law, Mrs. Chen, heard the sound and ran out of the room.
"What happened to our Li Jie?"
After the door opened, a middle-aged man covered in mud stood at the door: "It rained heavily just now. When your Li Jie came down from the mountain, she accidentally fell into the valley."
"What?" Mrs. Chen's legs went weak and she almost collapsed on the ground.
She grabbed the man's hand and cried: "His brother-in-law, our Dalong has gone to other places to buy goods and is not at home. You must help find our Li Jie!"
After Aunt Chen finished speaking, she quickly ran out desperately.
The middle-aged man quickly followed her: "Sister-in-law, don't worry first. I'll go find the village chief, and we'll go find Li Jie together."
An Min looked up at the dark night sky: "Xiao Ci, you wait here, I will follow them up the mountain to find Li Jie. Now she is the only clue to find the child."
Gu Nuanci said without thinking, "I'll go with you!"
It's about her child. As a mother, she can't just sit here and wait and do nothing.
After listening to her words, An Min's lips curled up: "Okay, let's go together."
He knew that with Xiao Ci's character, he would definitely follow them to the mountain.
Soon, the two men caught up with the villagers.
When the village chief saw the two of them, he was very confused: "Who are you?"
An Min explained: "We are Li Jie's good friends in Yucheng, and we came to see her for something. I heard that something happened to her, and we wanted to do our best."
Sister-in-law Chen also said: "Yes, they have just been waiting for Xiaojie to come back at our house!"
The village chief did not say anything more, but looked up at the gloomy sky: "Well, if you are not familiar with the terrain, just follow Chen Wu! Be careful and pay attention to safety on the road."
The Chen Wu the village chief mentioned was the man who just went to Sister-in-law Chen's house. He was Li Jie's husband's uncle.
Everyone quickly divided into several groups and started looking for Li Jie.
An Min took a flashlight and followed Chen Wu with Gu Nuanci, and set off towards the mountains.
"Xiao Ci, the mountain road is not easy to walk on. Please be careful." He naturally wanted to hold Gu Nuanci's hand.
However, she refused: "Brother An, don't forget, just like you, I have received special training since I was a child. This mountain road is not a problem for me."
In the night, An Min's eyes dimmed, but he did not speak. Instead, he slowed down and walked behind her, protecting her silently.
The wind was blowing, it had just rained heavily, and it was a little cool.
In the darkness not far away, a little light was moving slowly, and the villagers were calling Chen Jie's name.
The sound is getting farther and farther away.
Chen Wu turned back and glanced at them: "Let's go over there! I heard them say that Xiaojie accidentally slipped into the valley from that way. You two, be careful."
"good!"
"Chen——Jie!"
"Chen——Jie!"
They shouted as they walked.
There is a relatively steep slope ahead, which you need to climb up to continue going forward.
Chen Wu was from the mountains and climbed up quickly.
Anmin said to Gu Nuanci, "Xiaoci, I'll protect you from below. You go up first."
Gu Nuanci didn't shirk, just grabbed Chen Wu's hand and climbed up.
