In the afternoon, the weather suddenly became haze during the Qingming Festival, and the wind blew, as if it was about to fall snow again.

When Qingfeng rushed to the top of Zhaixing Mountain as fast as possible, he saw Hongxiao lying motionlessly on the snow, with no one else.

Qingfeng's heart sank! He hurriedly went up to check Hongxiao's condition and found that he was alive and was just in a coma.

Qingfeng took out the medicine he carried with him and stuffed it into Hongxiao's mouth. After waiting for a while, she woke up.

The coldness was so cold that she shivered unconsciously, looking at the strange environment around her in confusion.

"Hongxiao! Who caught you? Where is the master?" Qingfeng stood up with support from Hongxiao and asked anxiously.

Hongxiao subconsciously hugged her arms and shivered, "I...how am I here? Who caught me? Master..."

Qingfeng's heart sank, "You don't know anything?"

Hongxiao shook her head. Her last memory was that she went to bed last night. When she woke up, she saw Qingfeng here. She had no idea what she had experienced in the middle.

"Damn it! I don't know who caught you and led the master here. Now the master is gone!" Qing Feng's face looked ugly. Su Mo came to save people. Since Hongxiao is still here, Su Mo could not leave alone, which means that something happened!

Hongxiao's expression condensed and she searched the nearby area with Qingfeng.

Soon, they found a small stain of blood stained on the snow. But Hongxiao was only in a severe coma and was not injured. The blood was most likely Su Mo's!

Qingfeng ran to the edge of the cliff and looked down. There was a lot of fog and I couldn't see anything clearly. There was no blood on the edge of the cliff, and a cloth bag was tied to the branches swaying in the wind.

Qingfeng pulled the branch and pulled the cloth bag off and opened it. There was a piece of paper that was kneaded into a ball.

He unfolded the paper and found that the handwriting on it was exactly the same as the handwriting on the calligraphy left by the person who grabbed Hongxiao in her room.

"If you want Sumo's life, wait for the order."

There was no signature on the paper, I didn’t know who wrote it, and I didn’t have any specific instructions. But obviously, the message conveyed by this paper was that Su Mo became the other party’s hostage and the other party would look for them again.

"The master is so strong, how can it be..." Qingfeng clenched the cloth bag and frowned fiercely.

Among the younger generation, Su Mo absolutely has no rivals, and Qingfeng could not have imagined that any enemy would suddenly come to Su Mo at this time.

"It's all my fault. My master must have been taken away to save my life!" Hongxiao looked very guilty.

There were no other clues nearby. The drug in Hongxiao was too domineering and her body was still weak. Qingfeng carried her on her back and quickly went down the mountain. He took the letter back to Yuanqiu and reported to him to discuss countermeasures.

Rongguo Duke's Mansion.

Yuan Qiu sat in the study room of Guanlan Academy, looking through the half-open window at the bare acacia tree in the yard, feeling a little restless.

The little ferret Yuanbao rushed in and ran to Yuanqiu, rubbed her legs, and looked at her with his eyes dripping.

Yuan Qiu picked up the little Yuanbao, stroked its soft fur, and sighed slightly, not knowing where Su Mo was right now...

Qingfeng carried Hongxiao on his back and did not return to Hongxiao Pavilion, but came directly to Duke Rong's Mansion.

When Yuan Qiu saw them entering Guanlan Courtyard, he subconsciously looked behind Qingfeng, but no Su Mo's shadow was seen. He immediately felt a sank and immediately stood up to meet him.

"What's going on? Where is Su Mo?" Yuan Qiu asked.

Qingfeng put Hongxiao down, and Hongxiao's knees bent and knelt down in front of Yuan Qiu, "Madam, all subordinates are incompetent."

"Stop talking nonsense, where is Su Mo?" Yuan Qiu's face froze.

Qingfeng handed Yuan Qiu the piece of paper he held in his hand and quickly told the story.

I don’t know who grabbed Hongxiao and led Su Mo to the top of Zhaixing Mountain. When the green wind arrived, Su Mo was gone.

Yuan Qiu looked at the wrinkled paper and listened to Qingfeng's words, his eyes chilled, "I'll go over and take a look!"

Qingfeng was stunned for a moment, realizing that Yuan Qiu said he was going to Zhaixing Mountain, so he hurriedly chased after him.

Hongling came over and helped Hongxiao into the room.

When Rong Lan rushed over, Yuan Qiu had already left the mansion. She learned about the incident from Hongxiao and knew that something big happened. Those who could take Su Mo were definitely not ordinary people, but now they don’t even know who the other party is!

Old man Zhou also chased to Zhaixing Mountain, and Qinglei arranged for other subordinates to secretly investigate the suspicious people. However, judging by the other party's ability to capture Su Mo before Qingfeng arrived and no trace of his identity was left so far, he came prepared, acted cautiously, and was extremely strong, and it was almost impossible to find someone now.

Just as Yuan Qiu arrived at the foot of Zhaixing Mountain, snow began to fall again.

Under the hazy sky, the towering mountains are covered with snow, and the top of the mountains is covered with clouds, hazy.

Yuan Qiu was anxious to come out, not even wearing a cloak. She looked up, withdrew her gaze, and began to go up the mountain.

The wind and snow were getting heavier, and the mountain roads were frozen and hard to walk. Yuan Qiu almost fell several times, but before Qingfeng went to help her, he stabilized his body and was getting faster and faster.

Then the old man Zhou who was chasing him caught up with them and the three of them climbed to the top of the mountain together.

The strong wind swept through the snowflakes and hit the face, and there was no one on the top of the mountain. Even the blood-stained snow that Qingfeng saw when he first came over was blown away.

The world is bright, as if nothing has happened.

"Su Mo..." Yuan Qiu murmured Su Mo's name and walked towards the edge of the cliff.

Qingfeng hurriedly chased after him, afraid that Yuan Qiu would be blown down by the wind.

The old tree leaned out of the cliff, and the falling snow could not stay on the dark branches. The branches were like the old man's thin hands, shaking tremblingly.

Yuan Qiu looked down and the snow was misty.

"What is underneath?" Yuan Qiu asked Qingfeng, his voice as light as falling snow.

Qingfeng's face looked ugly, "It's a valley."

No matter whether the water or stone is below, at this height, the possibility of a normal person surviving is very slim if he falls down.

"Go down and take a look." Yuan Qiu turned around and looked at Qingfeng.

Qingfeng was stunned for a moment, "Madam is talking about the master..." Because of the letter hanging on the tree, Qingfeng thought that Su Mo must have been arrested and could not fall off the cliff.

"I'll go, you'll go home and wait for news." Old Man Zhou finished speaking and disappeared.

Yuan Qiu quietly looked at the foggy cliff for a while before turning around, slowly walking around the top of the mountain in the wind and snow, looking down at his feet, trying to find the traces left by Su Mo.

Qingfeng followed suit, but the weather was so bad that even the blood he had seen was blown away with the snow. What else could he find?

Suddenly, Yuan Qiu stopped next to a large stone, squatted down, and picked up something from the crack of the stone.

It was a white pearl with a shiny snow that turned into tiny water droplets when it touched Yuan Qiu's hand.

This pearl Yuanqiu is very familiar with.

The day before the three siblings last year, Rong Yuancheng followed Mu Zhenxuan to the northwest border and did not celebrate his birthday together.

After Rong Yuancheng left, Rong Lan gave them the birthday gift he prepared for Rong Yuanruo and Yuanqiu.

Among them, the one given to Rong Yuanruo was a purple jade hairpin. The one given to Yuan Qiu was a black jade hairpin with a white pearl inlaid on it. The hairpins were all carved by Rong Yuancheng himself.

Rong Yuancheng said that Mo Yu's hairpin was low-key and restrained, and the white pearl was gentle in Tsinghua. This was the feeling that Yuan Qiu gave him.

What Rong Lan gave Yuan Qiu was a rose jade pendant carved with her name.

Later, Su Mo's body became worse and worse. Before he fell into a coma, he confessed to Yuan Qiu. Then Mrs. Xin appeared and took him away to seek help from the ghost Taoist.

Before the two separated, Yuan Qiu put the jade pendant that Rong Lan gave her on Su Mo's neck. Afu secretly took Yuan Qiu's hairpin to leave a memory for Su Mo, and at the same time left Su Mo's wooden hairpin for Yuan Qiu.

When Su Mo returned and the two reunited, he did not return the jade pendant to Yuan Qiu, and his hairpin also "taken for himself", saying that it was all the tokens of love given to him by Yuan Qiu, and there was no reason to take it back.

Rong Lan carved a rose jade pendant with his name engraved on Su Mo. At this moment, she wore it on Yuan Qiu's body, and Su Mo's wooden hairpin was inserted on Yuan Qiu's head.

Today, Su Mo was wearing the black jade hairpin, and the falling pearls were blown into the cracks of the stone by the wind. Yuan Qiu thought of the blood that Qingfeng said he had seen, and knew that Su Mo must have been injured. There had been a fight here, but the traces were all eliminated by the wind and snow.

Who is it, so powerful, or is it that he used poison?

Yuan Qiu guessed that there was a high possibility of using poison. Otherwise, there would be an old monster with terrifying strength. Even if Su Mo couldn't beat it, he would always escape.

The old monster who used poison... Yuan Qiu unexpectedly thought of the master Gui Taoist she had never met, but the Gui Taoist only met two characteristics that Yuan Qiu guessed, and these two characteristics were not very strange. Even if he was not good at poisoning, he had poison in his hands.

Yuan Qiu couldn't think of any reason for the Ghost Taoist to do this, but she just changed her mind. She remembered that Mrs. Xin said that the Ghost Taoist found her son who had been separated for many years not long ago, but even Mrs. Xin didn't know the identity of the son...

Yuan Qiu suddenly clenched the pearl in his hand, "Go back!"

Rongguo Duke's Mansion.

Originally, Jun Zihuan was still acting coquettishly with Rong Yuanruo, saying that being an emperor would definitely be very tiring, and that Rong Yuancheng would be the regent at that time.

Suddenly, Jun Zihuan was stunned when he learned that something happened to Su Mo, "How is it possible? Brother-in-law is so powerful!"

He was originally planning to seize the throne, but no one expected that Su Mo would be arrested at this time. The most unlikely person in this mansion was Su Mo, because he was the strongest, but something happened.

Rong Yuanlang was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. If Rong Lan hadn't asked him to stay at home and wait for news, he would have been unable to hold back and run out.

Rong Yuanshun wrinkled his little face, "Who is so hateful? He actually caught Brother Tianxian, it's so bad!"

Yuan Qiu entered the door in the wind and snow. Rong Lan immediately got up and greeted her, holding her cold hand, and her heart sank!

"Sister, where is my brother-in-law?" Rong Yuanlang asked anxiously.

Yuan Qiu clenched the pearl in his hand and shook his head, "No clue was found. Mr. Zhou went down the cliff to check it, but he hasn't come back yet."

Rong Yuanlang's face froze, "Impossible!" Being captured at least proves that he is still alive and has value. If he is directly knocked down from the cliff, it will be a life-threatening death!

"Qiu'er, since the other party left such a letter, Su Mo must have been arrested." Rong Lan could only comfort Yuan Qiu in this way.

Qing Lei returned and brought back the calligraphy and painting from Hongxiao Pavilion.

Yuan Qiu compared it and found that the handwriting was exactly the same, and it should have been written by the same person.

"Does Master recognize this handwriting?" Yuan Qiu showed the calligraphy, painting and letter to Mrs. Xin.
