Song Qingshu froze. Before he could answer, the tent flap was lifted, and a petite figure rushed in. "Master, are you... there?"
The person who entered was naturally Feng Nü. Song Qingshu had recognized her footsteps long ago, so he had not stopped her.
"What did you need me for?" Song Qingshu asked.
Feng Nü stared at the stunningly beautiful married woman beneath the blankets and did not recover for a moment. Hearing his question, she instinctively pointed outside. "Something seems to have happened to the Tieyan Tribe. Che'erku's wife was... abducted."
Her voice grew softer and softer. The woman before her had an exotic beauty, and her hairstyle and attire were exactly like those of the Tieyan Tribe. Anyone could guess who she was.
"Oh. Have they found her?" Song Qingshu remained calm.
"The Tieyan Tribe people split into several groups to search outside. Bo'olghu personally led men to pursue them into the wilderness too, but there's no news yet..." Feng Nü's expression grew increasingly strange. No matter how well you guarded against outsiders, it was hard to guard against a thief in your own house. That woman was right here; if they could find her by searching the wilderness, it would be a miracle.
"Has anyone asked about me?" Song Qingshu asked in a low voice. He had disappeared midway through the bonfire gathering. If anyone investigated afterward, they might grow suspicious.
"Öchen did ask," Feng Nü replied. "I told him that you had suddenly gained some insight and gone somewhere to make a breakthrough. I was worried they would send people to look for you, so I hurried back to check."
At first, she had thought Song Qingshu had vanished to meet Haemish. Who could have expected that he had gone off to indulge in stealing fragrance
