C1068 Found a Clue
Not long after Soong Xian and his two bodyguards got off the iron fence, a black figure slid down the hill like a swallow.
The road down the hill was not easy to walk on. The grass and thorns wrapped around his legs, and from time to time, the stones under his feet loosened. If he was not careful, he would roll down.
The three of them were very careful. Halfway up the hill, they found a narrow path.
They supported each other as they walked down the mountain, step by step, from the back of the mountain to the bottom.
When they looked up at the cliff again, they were already high and mighty.
At the foot of the mountain, the terrain was much more flat. Some of the tall trees were bare, but some were still green.
There were many footprints on the ground, as if there were sheep dung.
Was there a herdsman or farmer nearby?
The three of them did not know which direction they should go, so they simply walked in the direction of the footprints and sheep dung.
They did not know how long they had walked, but after crossing a few ditches and climbing a few mountains, they found nothing. In the end, they could not even find the footprints and sheep dung, much less see the shadow of the shepherd.
The three of them were all panting, and they reached a ravine. They found a slope facing the sun and stopped to drink water.
Soong Xian took out his phone. It was already 12 o'clock in the afternoon. They had been searching at the foot of the mountain for three hours, but they did not find anything.
Could it be that their judgment was wrong? The man in black who was following him did not know if he had followed them down.
If there were other people following Zhuang Lan, it would be a good thing. At least, it meant that he was heading in the right direction.
Therefore, he looked around, wanting to find the person who followed him.
The man in black who was following him was currently hiding on a big tree, looking at Soong Xian from afar.
Her bright eyes flashed with a cunning light.
This man in black was none other than Qiao Tianyu.
However, she didn't want Soong Xian to know that she had come.
Soong Xian did not see the man in black, but he found a shoe not far ahead.
He quickly said to the two bodyguards, "Go and take a look!"
The three of them immediately walked forward and saw a man's leather shoe. It was an international brand shoe, which happened to be Zhuang Lan's favorite brand.
Soong Xian was surprised and said, "Did Zhuang Lan really come here before? Everyone look around to see if there are any clues."
As he spoke, he used his phone to take a picture of the shoe and also looked around.
One. A bodyguard shouted from afar, "Mr. Soong, there's blood here!"
Soong Xian quickly ran over. Sure enough, he found a patch of blood under a tree. There was also a piece of stone that was also stained with dried blood.
On the ground under the tree, footprints were mixed. The weeds were flattened. It could be seen that this place had probably experienced a fight.
Soong Xian was a little excited. "Let's follow the blood trail and search!"
He knew Zhuang Lan was a veteran, so his physical fitness was definitely better than ordinary people. If he was held hostage, he would very likely escape.
Thus, the three of them followed the trail of blood and walked forward. However, after walking for a while, they entered a primitive forest.
This primitive forest was extremely large, and the terrain was uneven.0
The three of them discovered that the trail of blood had disappeared. Moreover, they discovered that the three of them had gotten lost. They walked around a few times, but were unable to get out.
Qiao Tianyu jumped onto a big tree and saw the three of them wandering around in the forest. She was somewhat speechless.
She held a few stones in her hand and was about to give Soong Xian and the others directions when she saw a person's leg exposed under the cover of fallen leaves at a hillside dozens of meters to the right in front of them.
She was delighted. Could it be Zhuang Lan?
She immediately pinched a stone and threw it there.
Swoosh, pata...
The subtle sound shocked Soong Xian. He looked in the direction where the sound came from.
