Pei Chun quickened his pace, his mother's instructions before leaving the house echoing in his ears.

Ask her to pay attention to everyone's actions in the Minister of Revenue's mansion.

However, her eldest brother's sudden disappearance left her with no time to care about other things. But when she thought about it carefully, she realized that her eldest brother had disappeared since he entered this mansion.

If you say that this matter has nothing to do with the Shangshu Mansion, who would believe it?

But why would the Minister of Revenue touch my eldest brother? They clearly had no grudges against each other before...

Pei Chun didn't understand.

Following the almost undetectable flight path of the insect, Pei Chun finally arrived at a cliff.

Here the wind is like a sharp blade, the snow is like a raging tide, and the world is in chaos.

On the edge of the cliff, traces of wheel tracks and footprints crisscrossed each other, looming in the wind and snow.

Pei Chun stood on the edge of the cliff, her eyes as sharp as an eagle. Her gaze lingered over the traces, trying to find the trace of her elder brother among them.

The wind was howling and snowflakes were flying in the face. At this moment, on the cliff where snow was falling, the strong wind blew the snowflakes into chaos and surged up from the empty bottom of the cliff in waves.

Hit Pei Chun in the face.

Fifth brother was a step slower than her, and his expression changed as soon as he arrived here.

Below the cliff is a pristine dense forest that has never been touched by human footprints.

The deep mountains and forests were filled with the roars of wild beasts.

Pei Chun stood on the edge of the cliff. The dense forest covered with snow in front of him was like a huge white blanket covering the earth.

The poisonous insect in her hand suddenly changed its flight trajectory after reaching this place. It no longer circled, but flew straight down the cliff.

Pei Chun's heartbeat quickened. The insect's behavior undoubtedly confirmed her guess—big brother was probably somewhere at the bottom of the cliff.

She stretched out her hand, tightly grasped the insect, and felt the constant vibration of its wings.

Pei Chun took a deep breath. She had to go down and find her elder brother.

Pei Chun immediately threw Xiaoqing, who was standing on his shoulder, off the cliff.

After watching it spread its sharp wings, he took out the rope and tied it around his waist.

The movements are done in one go.

Seeing this, the fifth brother beside her immediately spoke up to stop her: "Mingcheng, you stay upstairs, I'll go downstairs to find my eldest brother!"

Pei Chun shook his head and refused, "Fifth brother, let me go down, hurry up and ask daddy to find second brother, or the doctor!

It takes too long to get to the bottom of the cliff, I'm going to jump down first and look for my brother!"

Before Pei Jing could say anything, he saw Pei Chun had already used his inner strength to straighten the rope and tied it to a crooked tree at the edge of the cliff, then used the force to jump down.

With the help of the rope, he kept groping and jumping on the rocks on the edge of the cliff.

Then, after the rope was straightened, he cut it without hesitation, used his light skills, and flew down quickly.

Before Pei Jing could reach out his hand, he saw his sister had already jumped down.

He was horrified and immediately lay down on the edge of the cliff. He took a closer look and found that Pei Chun was still alive and well. Only then did he feel relieved.

What an impatient person! Really, if you slow down, you will die!

It scared him to death as his brother.

Pei Chun followed Xiaoqing's direction, jumping left and right on the slippery rocks.

Because of the snow, the rocks on the cliff were slippery and difficult to walk on, so she could only speed up her movements.

Letting the strong wind blow on my cheeks, it took me about quarter of an hour to finally land in the snow-covered forest.

As soon as Pei Chun landed on the ground, he released Xiaohong and Xiaobai and went to look for his elder brother.

She also wiped the wound on herself from when she jumped down just now.

Listen carefully with your ears.

the other side.

In the shadow of the city gate, Pei Jing's figure appeared hurried and anxious.

As soon as he stepped into the city, a familiar figure appeared in his sight.

It was Pei Ding, who was rushing over with a group of attendants.

Pei Ding's brows were furrowed, his face full of worry.

A hint of relief flashed across his eyes when he saw Pei Jing, but it was quickly replaced by a look of urgency.

Without any unnecessary nonsense, Pei Ding waved his hand and led the servants behind him to quicken their pace and head straight for the cliff outside the city.

"Dad, Mingcheng has also gone down!" Pei Jing quickly followed, with a hint of urgency in his voice.

Pei Ding's steps did not stop: "Let's move faster!"

Pei Jing nodded. He knew that they had to race against time. If his elder brother was really thrown off the cliff, every second could be the key to his survival.

The group walked through the busy streets and headed straight for their destination.

Once they reached the bottom of the cliff, everyone dispersed, calling out carefully and searching.

Pei Ding searched for a long time before he discovered that some of the trees at the bottom of the cliff had traces of marks deliberately carved by a flying knife.

He stepped forward and looked carefully, then he saw clearly that it was Mingcheng who left these traces specifically to guide those who came later.

Pei Jing's eyes immediately lit up, and he led his people and his father towards the direction indicated by the tree.

They walked for a whole hour, and it was even dark.

Also coming to look for people were several brothers of the Pei family who had just been dismissed from their posts, and the eldest princess.

And Sujia, who was covered in poisonous insects and offered to help.

The crowd searched for a long distance and could only see traces left by Pei Chun, but still could not see the figures of Pei Chun and his elder brother Pei Qing.

Pei Jing was inevitably a little anxious. He couldn't help but murmured in a low voice: "Why have we walked for so long? And there is still no sign of anyone?

Is Big Brother okay, or did Ming Cheng fail to find him?"

Pei Ding couldn't hide his anxiety as so much time had passed.

Not only has his eldest son disappeared without a trace, but now even his youngest daughter is missing.

How can it not make people anxious?

Pei Ding sighed, but still did not give up. He just continued to ask the people around him to spread out and search.

The princess looked at the dark scenery in the surrounding dense forest and became more and more worried about the whereabouts of the two children.

As time passed, the family could not hide their anxiety, and the forest became increasingly quiet due to the sky.

There were originally faint howling sounds of wild beasts, but they stopped at night.

the other side.

Pei Chun's footsteps left a series of deep footprints on the thick snow, and each step seemed extremely difficult.

Her breath condensed into white mist in the cold air, and followed her sight, finally stopping at the hidden cave entrance.

The cave was hidden behind a dense pine forest. If it weren't for the guidance of the insect, she would have almost missed this hidden place.

She gripped her sword tightly and stepped into the cave carefully. The fire starter in her hand emitted a faint light, illuminating the road ahead.

The inside of the cave was extremely dry and cold, and the air was filled with the smell of earth.

Her intuition told her that her elder brother must be here!

The firelight flickered slightly, and as she walked deeper into the cave, the view inside gradually became wider, and her eyes finally fell on a scene deep in the cave.

There, a figure was leaning against the cave wall. It was Pei Qing!

At this time, he had his eyes closed, his face was pale, and his life or death was uncertain.
