Chapter 414: Why Are You Guys Here?

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“Open the door! Open the door! Save us!” A pleading voice came from outside.

When Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran heard this voice, their expressions changed. They quickly rushed to the door of the stone house and opened it.

In the darkness, two people rushed in.

Luo Cheng quickly closed the big stone door and looked at the two people who had rushed in.

“Father, Mother, why are you guys on the mountain?” After seeing who the two people were, Li Xiaoran couldn’t help but exclaim.

The people were none other than Li Xiaoran’s parents, Li Shun and Zhao Xiu.

At this moment, the two of them were in an unusually sorry state. Not only was their hair disheveled, but their clothes were also covered in mud and gra.s.s, as if they had rolled in a mud pit.

“Daughter, son-in-law? Why are you two here?” Li Shun couldn’t help but exclaim.

They spoke one after another.

“Father, Mother, take off your coats first! After you wash your faces and hands, eat something first. Then, let’s sit down and talk!” Luo Cheng said when he saw that the two of them were dirty.

“I have clothes. Mother, wear mine! Father, wear Luo Cheng’s coat first!” Li Xiaoran said as she went to get clothes.

Li Shun and Zhao Xiu had many questions, but they went to wash their hands and faces first. Then, they took the clothes handed over by their daughter and son-in-law and changed into clean clothes before coming out.

Now, the five of them sat around the iron pot as they drank warm soup and nibbled on soft taros.

Li Shun and Zhao Xiu had not eaten for a day, so they immediately felt much more energetic after eating.

“Daughter, weren’t you and our son-in-law captured? Someone brought us news and asked us to wait on the mountain. He said that someone would come to take us to White Foothill City to see you two. Why are you two here?” Li Shun finally couldn’t help but ask.

“Captured? Who told you that?” Li Xiaoran frowned and asked.

“Someone brought me a letter and asked us not to tell anyone. He said that as long as your mother and I went to the mountain with three camphor trees to wait, someone would pick us up. He also said that we must not tell anyone, or they wouldn’t appear to see us!” Li Shun explained.

“That’s why you guys came? Why didn’t you tell Ziyang?” The more Li Xiaoran listened, the more afraid she became.

If they had not gone to the stone house today or if they had encountered any ferocious beasts in the mountains and been injured… She didn’t dare to think about what would have happened next.

Li Shun and Zhao Xiu also felt a little guilty and didn’t dare to speak anymore.

To be honest, it was indeed a little reckless for them to run out today without considering the consequences.

“Don’t worry, aren’t they fine? Father, Mother, continue eating. We’ll talk about it after you’re full!” As Luo Cheng spoke, he picked up a piece of Li Shun’s favorite meat and placed it in his bowl.

Luo Chenq picked up a piece of his mother-in-law’s favorite, piq head meat,

and placed it in her bowl.

With Luo Cheng’s interruption, the couple quickly picked up their chopsticks and ate, for fear that their daughter would scold them later.

Seeing this, Li Xiaoran was amused.

Forget it. She would rather not talk about these unhappy things during dinner.

Things were very quiet during the meal.

After Wu Qinghe looked around, he quickly shrank his head and ate. After they finished eating and drinking, the bowls and chopsticks were left there.

Because the water source was outside and it wasn’t safe to be outside at this time of night, they left it there and would wait until dawn to wash it.

Wu Qinghe knew that Li Xiaoran had something to say to her parents. In addition, he was tired, so he found a random place and lay a few wooden boards on the ground before going to sleep.

On the other side, Luo Cheng put on the kettle on the small stove and boiled water as he warmed himself.

“Father, Mother, what exactly happened? Tell me in detail!” Luo Cheng asked.

Li Shun looked at his wife, Zhao Xiu, and said, “When I was weeding in the field yesterday, I suddenly felt a little tired, so I sat under a fruit tree to rest.” While Li Shun was resting, a man walked over and sat beside Li Shun.

Li Shun only thought that they were here to find work for him, so he didn’t mind.

Unexpectedly, the other party said something that surprised him.

“Your daughter and son-in-law have been arrested in White Foothill City.”

When Li Shun heard this, he immediately panicked. “How did you know? Why should I believe you?”

The other party sneered when he heard Li Shun’s words.

“You don’t have to believe me. Just wait to collect your daughter and son-in-law’s corpses!”

Upon hearing this, Li Shun didn’t dare doubt him anymore.

After all, it involved Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng’s safety, so Li Shun could only believe him.

“Why are you telling me this?” Li Shun asked.

“Of course it’s because I need your help! Bring your wife out at dawn tomorrow and go to the place with three camphor trees on the tallest mountain nearby. Remember, don’t bring anyone else. Only the two of you are allowed to come. If you bring anyone else or the news is leaked, I won’t appear to see you tomorrow! When you come tomorrow, I’ll bring you to White Foothill City to save your daughter and son-in-law!” With that, the man left quickly.

Before Li Shun could ask anything else, the other party had already disappeared.

Li Shun waited until it was time to sleep before telling Zhao Xiu about this.

When Zhao Xiu heard this, she was immediately worried. The two of them stayed up until dawn.

“But don’t worry. Before we left, we saw that Xiao Qing had also woken up, so we told her that we were going to the mountain to find some good wood for furniture today. We told her that if we don’t come back tonight, she shouldn’t worry.” Li Shun thought of something and added.

“Then what happened next? What happened after you went to the mountain?” Li Xiaoran asked.

At the mention of this, Li Shun and Zhao Xiu looked at each other in silence.

“Father, Mother, were you two tied up?” Luo Cheng asked.

When Li Xiaoran heard her man’s words, she immediately looked at her parents’ wrists.

At this moment, Li Shun and Zhao Xiu subconsciously stretched their sleeves to hide something.

“Father, Mother, why are you still hiding things from me at this time?! Quick, let me see if your injuries are serious.” Li Xiaoran thought of something and grabbed her mother’s wrist to take a look.

Sure enough, there was a rope mark on her wrist. It wasn’t deep, so it must have been a long time ago.

“Xiaoran, I’m fine, and so is your father! After we went up the mountain, we waited for a while, but we were knocked out! When we woke up, your father and I were tied to a big tree!”
