Then he comforted himself, "Don't overthink it! Maybe Lan Zihe just lost her phone, so I couldn't get through. Maybe she's staying somewhere safe and not in any danger."

Although he thought so, Lin Beichen still couldn't help but worry. He anxiously said to Zhang Yuefei beside him: "What should we do? There is still no news about Lan Zihe. Is she really in danger?"

Zhang Yuefei panted heavily, sat down next to Lin Beichen, looked at the scorching sun above his head, and asked, "What should we do now?"

Lin Beichen touched his nose helplessly: "No, I don't believe Lan Zihe is so unlucky that she encountered a landslide just after arriving at Anjialing. We can't draw any conclusions before we find her."

Although Anjialing is a small place and finding people should not be difficult, the recent landslides have caused many deaths, which has greatly increased the difficulty of their search.

The two were silent for a while, and Lin Beichen suddenly stood up, as if he had a new idea: "Why don't we split up to look for the blue purple lotus, this way it will be much more efficient. If two people always wander around in one place, the search area is too small and it will waste time."

Zhang Yuefei agreed with his idea and stood up as well: "Okay, once we find the person, we'll contact him by phone!"

After searching for a while, Lin Beichen arrived at the landslide site. He began to dig the soil with his bare hands, as if he could find Lan Zihe from the soil. He was full of contradictions, hoping to see Lan Zihe while digging, but he didn't want her to really appear under the landslide.

He kept digging, but time passed by, and he still found nothing.

Unable to find Lan Zihe, Lin Beichen's emotions gradually lost control. He realized that he might have really fallen in love with Lan Zihe, otherwise why would he care about her so much and feel so sad when he couldn't find her. If this hadn't happened, he might never realize how deep his feelings for Lan Zihe were.

Lin Beichen was so emotional that he completely forgot that he could use Taoism to find the trace of Lan Zihe. When the police saw Lin Beichen like this, they came forward to persuade him to stop and not continue digging in vain.

However, the police's words did not dissuade Lin Beichen, but made him dig even harder. It can be seen that because he had not used any tools, Lin Beichen's fingers had been worn and bleeding. But he seemed to feel no pain, and just persisted in digging the pile of soil.

The police shook their heads helplessly and finally decided to send someone to forcibly drag Lin Beichen away.

Because Lin Beichen's presence here not only affects their rescue operations, but may also endanger his life.

After all, landslides often occur in this area, and no one knows what will happen next.

At the same time, Zhang Yuefei came to the mountains and forests to look for Lan Zihe. He shouted Lan Zihe's name all the way, hoping that she could hear and respond. However, his action did not find Lan Zihe, but attracted Huo Minghao.

"Why are you here?" Zhang Yuefei was shocked when he saw Huo Minghao.

"What? Is this place yours? Can't I come?" Huo Minghao responded disdainfully. He was originally somewhere else, but when he heard Zhang Yuefei's call, he followed the sound and came here.

The two of them disliked each other, and after a conversation they started fighting.

Zhang Yuefei was no match for Huo Minghao and was soon knocked to the ground. Huo Minghao took the opportunity to kidnap Zhang Yuefei.

"Let me go! Let me join you in saving people!" Lin Beichen struggled and shouted after the police took coercive measures. He did want to save people, but the one he wanted to save most was Lan Zihe. Before finding Lan Zihe, the lives of others were unimportant to him.

"We've already advised you. If you insist on joining, don't blame us for taking coercive measures again." The police were helpless with Lin Beichen and could only warn him.

Slowly, Lin Beichen's emotions stabilized.

He knew that at this critical moment, he should trust the police and rescue workers to rescue all the victims.

However, Lin Beichen was worried about Zhang Yuefei again. He remembered that they were looking for Lan Zihe in two directions, so he decided to go find Zhang Yuefei. He rode as fast as he could along the route Zhang Yuefei took to find Lan Zihe, but he could not find any trace of Zhang Yuefei.

It would have been fine if Lan Zihe was not found, but now Zhang Yuefei was missing too. Lin Beichen began to panic. He blamed himself and thought that if he hadn't suggested to search for Lan Zihe separately, Zhang Yuefei wouldn't be missing now.

But then I thought, Zhang Yuefei is an adult, he should be able to solve the problems himself if he encounters any difficulties.

Therefore, the most urgent task is to find the blue purple lotus.

Lin Beichen once again embarked on the journey to find Lan Zihe.

Soon, he came to the ruins of Anjialing alone and began to search carefully.

He concentrated on searching through various large pieces of waste, hoping to find the blue and purple lotus hidden underneath.

However, he accidentally stepped on empty air and fell to the bottom of the ruins.

This sudden change caught him off guard and caused him to break his leg. He couldn't help but gasp and said to himself, "Why am I so unlucky? Why didn't I notice that there was no road below?"

Lin Beichen felt helpless, as misfortunes never come alone and blessings never come in pairs.

However, he was not at a loss like most people. He used Taoism to quickly reconnect his legs. He stood up and patted the dirt off his body, ready to continue searching in the ruins.

At this moment, the system suddenly assigned him a task. At the critical moment of finding someone, the system actually came to cause trouble, which made Lin Beichen a little impatient. But he still checked the task and found that he was asked to save Zhang Yuefei.

It turned out that Zhang Yuefei was really in danger. Lin Beichen originally thought that he couldn't find Zhang Yuefei because he went to look for Lan Zihe somewhere else, but he didn't expect that he was in trouble. Since the system gave this task, Lin Beichen decided to save Zhang Yuefei first.

On the other side, Huo Minghao tied Zhang Yuefei up in an abandoned warehouse. He forced Zhang Yuefei to tell him the whereabouts of Lin Beichen. He was not interested in Zhang Yuefei himself, but just wanted to find Lin Beichen through him.

Zhang Yuefei had expected Huo Minghao to ask this question. Although he didn't know Lin Beichen's exact location, he knew his approximate location. However, he would not tell Huo Minghao.

Zhang Yuefei clenched his teeth and didn't say a word for a long time. Huo Minghao gradually lost his patience and threatened: "I'll ask you one last time, where is Lin Beichen? As long as you tell me, I will let you go immediately."

Lin Beichen is Zhang Yuefei's good brother, and he will never betray Lin Beichen. No matter how Huo Minghao pressed him, Zhang Yuefei kept his mouth shut.

Huo Minghao was finally completely enraged. He began to beat Zhang Yuefei, using all his strength to make Zhang Yuefei tell him Lin Beichen's location. However, Zhang Yuefei didn't say a word during the whole process, just groaned from time to time. Gradually, Zhang Yuefei was beaten to death by Huo Minghao. Huo Minghao had to admire his perseverance. In this situation, he could still keep his mouth shut and not tell him Lin Beichen's location.

Lan Zihe did encounter danger, but she escaped by luck. She had just arrived at Anjialing and was unfamiliar with the terrain, so she ran into Lin Beichen by accident.

When Lin Beichen saw Lan Zihe, he hugged her tightly with excitement: "I was so scared. Fortunately, I met you here. I thought you were in danger."

Lan Zihe felt Lin Beichen's warm chest and smiled for the first time in a long time. However, Lin Beichen hugged her too tightly and she was a little breathless. She said weakly: "Can you let me go? I can't breathe because of your hug."

Hearing this, Lin Beichen quickly let go of her and apologized: "I'm sorry, I was too worried. When I saw you, I couldn't help but hug you so tightly. I was really too impulsive."

Lan Zihe nodded in understanding: "It's okay. I'm already very relieved that you came here to look for me after learning about the landslide."

"Are you alone?" Lan Zihe asked curiously.

Lin Beichen then remembered the task assigned to him by the system and said, "Zhang Yuefei came with me, but now I can't find him. Why don't you come with me to find him?"

Lan Zihe did not refuse, after all, Zhang Yuefei got lost because he followed Lin Beichen here to look for her. After finding Lan Zihe, Lin Beichen seemed to have a backbone. He remembered that he could use Taoism to find people. He had forgotten Taoism because he was too worried before.

So, he began to use Taoism to sense Zhang Yuefei's location. Based on his perception, he came to a dilapidated warehouse. The system's sensing here was very strong, and he could be sure that Zhang Yuefei was inside.

Lan Zihe was very curious about why Lin Beichen was standing in front of this dilapidated warehouse. "Are you sure Zhang Yuefei is in there?" she asked in a half-believing tone.

"Of course I'm sure." Lin Beichen answered confidently. After all, this was information confirmed by the system, and Zhang Yuefei must be here.

The two of them broke into the warehouse together, and were stunned by the scene in front of them - Zhang Yuefei was tied there.

"It's really Zhang Yuefei, he is really here!" Lan Zihe shouted in surprise, and at the same time admired Lin Beichen's intuition that he could find Zhang Yuefei so accurately.

Seeing Lin Beichen and Lan Zihe, a glimmer of hope flashed in Zhang Yuefei's eyes. He had long expected that Lin Beichen would definitely come to him after finding Lan Zihe.

"Who beat you like this?" Lan Zihe looked at the scars all over Zhang Yuefei's body and asked distressedly. Those scars were shocking, and it was hard to imagine how much pain he had endured.

"It was Huo Minghao. Fortunately, it's all over. I'm so lucky that you come to save me now." Zhang Yuefei forced a smile, trying to persuade Lan Zihe not to worry.

His voice sounded very weak, and Lan Zihe's eyes couldn't help but moisten. She knew that Zhang Yuefei was kidnapped by Huo Minghao and suffered such abuse because he came here with her and Lin Beichen.

Zhang Yuefei noticed Lan Zihe's mood and quickly comforted her: "You came at the right time. I'm fine. I just suffered some external injuries. I will be fine after I go back and recuperate. If you continue like this, I will be in a bad mood and my injuries will heal slowly."

After hearing his words, Lan Zihe had to put away her sadness.

When Lin Beichen was untying Zhang Yuefei, Huo Minghao felt something was wrong in the warehouse and rushed in. When he saw Lin Beichen, a trace of evil flashed in his eyes.

Without saying anything, he launched a fierce attack on Lin Beichen. Lin Beichen had his back to the warehouse door and didn't notice Huo Minghao's arrival at all.

"Be careful!" Lan Zihe shouted loudly, but it was too late. Huo Minghao had already rushed to Lin Beichen. At this moment, Zhang Yuefei hugged Lin Beichen and turned around with all his strength to block the fatal blow for Lin Beichen.

By the time Lin Beichen reacted, Zhang Yuefei had already fallen to the ground weakly. Lin Beichen was extremely angry. He had originally planned to seek revenge on Huo Minghao after rescuing Zhang Yuefei, but he did not expect Huo Minghao to appear at this time.

"It's ridiculous. You're injured like this, but you're still blocking attacks for others. Are you stupid? You can take a beating like this." Huo Minghao said dissatisfiedly as he watched this scene. He had just used his ultimate move to kill Lin Beichen, but he didn't expect it to be blocked by Zhang Yuefei.

Lin Beichen was even more furious when he heard what Huo Minghao said. He immediately started fighting with Huo Minghao.

Lan Zihe, who was standing by, quickly dragged Zhang Yuefei aside. "Why are you so stupid? You were injured like this, but you still blocked the fatal blow for Lin Beichen. Do you know how dangerous this was? You almost died!" She blamed Zhang Yuefei.

"If it were you, you would do the same." Zhang Yuefei explained. He felt that he was already injured. If Lin Beichen was hit by Huo Minghao without any defense, his power would definitely be greatly reduced. Among the three of them, only Lan Zihe did not know Taoism, and was no match for Huo Minghao. Therefore, he would rather take the blow himself and give Lin Beichen a chance to fight back.

After hearing what Zhang Yuefei said, Lan Zihe stopped blaming him and started to bandage his wound.

After the actual fight, Lin Beichen realized that he had underestimated Huo Minghao's strength and he was no match for Huo Minghao at all.

Lin Beichen was at a disadvantage in the beginning of the confrontation and was no match for Huo Minghao in hand-to-hand combat.

In desperation, he had to rely on the power of the system to quietly change Huo Minghao's destiny.

In the following battle, no matter how Huo Minghao attacked, he was always just a little bit short of hitting Lin Beichen.

This situation made him furious. He was clearly aiming at Lin Beichen, so why did he always dodge? It wasn't like this at the beginning.

Gradually, Lin Beichen gained the upper hand and subdued Huo Minghao within the time of an incense stick.

Although it took a lot of time, Zhang Yuefei was finally avenged. After all, Huo Minghao beat Zhang Yuefei so badly.

"You were clearly no match for me at the beginning, so how did you suddenly defeat me later? What on earth is going on?" Huo Minghao felt that he was very powerful and could defeat many people, including Lin Beichen.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone to such great lengths to find out Lin Beichen's location and then go fight him. Now that he was defeated by Lin Beichen, he asked unwillingly.

He always felt that there was something fishy going on, but he didn't know what tricks Lin Beichen had used. (End of this chapter)
