Li Mu found an aging motorbike in Fourth grandfather's home yard. Looking at its design and condition, it seemed to be an antique that was older than himself.
He didn’t dare to ask anyone about it. So he got his information from the girls. Shen Zixing told him that it was Fourth grandfather's treasured item when he was young. Though it looked old, Fourth grandfather took good care of it and it was still functioning well.
Li Mu did not expect the old man was so trendy when he was young. He found it funny and started to plan in his mind. He told the girls about his plan and delegated them tasks to do.
Shen Zixing might look innocent, but she was good at discerning what to do and what not to do. She rejected his idea instantly.
Li Mu panicked and started to coax and threaten them. The girls were mentally controlled by him and they agreed to help him even though it was against their will.
One night, the east side of the village had a big fire. The fire was so horrific that it blazed into the sky. The villagers were awakened and almost everyone ran there to put off the fire. Li Mu also joined in and pretended to be very helpful in putting off the fire.
When everyone's focus had turned to the fire, Shen Ming'er sneakily pushed Fourth grandfather's motorbike to the west side of the village. She hid it among the reed bushes.
The fire was set by Shen Zixing. The girls bumped into a bad guy the day they came down from the mountain. Li Mu was guilty of teaching them to do all these bad things.
The vehicle was ready. Li Mu decided to take action instantly. The night after, with the guidance of the girls, he pushed the motorbike and escaped the protection formation safely.
Looking at the mountain path ahead of them, the girls clapped their hands excitedly and looked at Li Mu with admiration.
However, Li Mu showed them a sad face and said, “I'm an idiot! I was too nervous just now. I left the motorbike key in the house. Without the key, I can't start the motorbike engine and we can't go anywhere!”
“Brother, I have already told you to bring the key wherever you go. Why did you keep it in the house?” Shen Ming'er said unhappily.
“It's an important thing. I'm scared that I will lose it. What should we do now? Should we go back and get the key?” Li Mu said pretentiously.
“Forget about it. It'll take you very long to go back. I'll go back for you. Where did you keep the key?” Shen Zixing asked.
“It's under my pillow. You'll see it when you take up the pillow!”
Shen Zixing did not further delay and went back using the same path. The girl chanted some spells and speedily disappeared into the night like a civet.
After she left, Li Mu suddenly slapped his thigh, “Ming'er, call your sister to come back now!”
“She has gone very far. I don't think she can hear me. What's wrong?” Shen Ming'er asked perplexedly.
“Money. I forgot to bring my wallet. Do you have any money with you?”
“No, I don't have!”
“What about your sister?”
“I don't think so!”
“Then what did we come out here? If we don't have money, we can't do anything. We need money to play all the fun stuff and eat good food. What do we do there if we are without money?”
Though Shen Ming'er was innocent, it did not mean that she was stupid. She started to doubt his words and actions. She could not help asking, “Brother, are you lying to us?”
“You damned kid. How can you say that I'm lying to you? Can't you differentiate between lies and truth? I can show you if you don't believe in me!”
Without any hesitation, Li Mu showed her his pockets. He only had one bank card and two identity cards with him.
“What are these for?” Shen Ming'er pointed at the cards and asked.
“They are for scraping my skin!” Li Mu said in a solemn tone without changing his facial expression. He did not even blush when he lied to her.
The girl believed in him and thought she had blamed Li Mu wrongly. She felt a little embarrassed about it.
Li Mu spoke to her immediately, “Ming'er, why don't you go and help me get my wallet? It's under my pillow. Please help me get it.”
Finally, Li Mu successfully diverted them away from him. Immediately, he took out the motorbike key from his shoe and started the engine.
Tuk. Tuk. Tuk. Fourth grandfather's motorbike was maintained well. A decades-old antique was able to function normally. Li Mu was overjoyed by it. He then sat on the motorbike and left the place instantly.
Although he had never driven an antique motorbike, the mechanical principle of this thing was somewhat similar to that of a modern motorcycle. Besides, Fourth grandfather’s motorbike had a sidecar, which helped him balance better. After a while, Li Mu dared to ride the bike at its top speed.
He had already inquired about the path beforehand. He did not dare ride to Zhou Feng district. At the junction, he made a turn and headed to another city.
Shen Zixing came back to the ancestral house silently and went to Li Mu's bed when she got into the house. She found nothing when she took up the pillow.
The girl thought Li Mu had remembered the wrong spot because he was nervous. She patiently looked for it in the room and found nothing. When she was wondering about it, she heard some noise behind her. She turned around and saw her sister sneaking into the room.
Shen Zixing was in great shock and asked immediately, “Why did you come back?”
“Brother has forgotten his wallet. He asked me to come back to get the money. Have you found the key?”
“It's not under his pillow. Where did he keep his wallet?”
“Under the pillow. Brother said it was kept under the pillow!”
“Nothing was under the pillow. I even removed the bedsheet and found nothing underneath it!”
The girls were not stupid. Their social experience was a little lacking because they had been in the mountain to cultivate martial skills for years. However, they knew that he had lied to them even with their little social experiences.
At once, they dashed out and frantically looked for Li Mu outside the village but to no avail!
Both of them were angry and anxious and had never been cheated like this in their whole life. Suddenly, they felt sad and started crying like a baby.
After crying for a while, they felt it was useless to be sad since Li Mu had escaped. They had no experience going out, so they didn’t dare to run farther than where they were. They knew that it was not a time to hide the happening but to ask for help from others!
The girls ran back to the village as they were crying. A commotion started, and villagers began to come to them. They kept asking what had happened to them after seeing their aggrieved look.
“Brother had run away!” Shen Zixing screamed aloud.
“He had stolen Fourth grandfather's motorbike!” Shen Ming'er added.
The villagers started making noise at once. Some wanted to report to the village chief and some wanted to chase after him. For a while, the place was chaotic and full of commotion.
There were very few motor vehicles in the village. So far, there were only two of them. One of them was Li Mu's car but they could not find the key. In fact, the key was thrown away by Li Mu on purpose.
The other one was Fourth grandfather's motorbike. However, it was stolen by Li Mu. The villagers had no choice but to ride bicycles to chase after him. However, they could never get him.
Li Mu rode to the city and got a lot of attention from the passers-by. Who would ride this kind of antique nowadays? People thought he was acting in a film.
First, he found a smartphone shop and bought a new smartphone and a new SIM card.
He had changed to another phone number and informed Shen Xingyue of the phone number after leaving Shanyang. Now that he had to hide from her, he had no choice but to change to another phone number.
After getting his phone, Li Mu went to the bank to withdraw some money. Then, he broke the bank card and threw it into the trash bin.
All these expenses were paid using Shen Xingyue's money. Even the bank card belonged to her. He felt guilty and sorry for her.
He could not figure out one thing, which was whether he should call Shen Xingyue a lady or a granny after she increased her lifespan. Somehow, he felt that she was like a granny who disguised herself as a young lady.
He had to stop riding the motorbike because it could not go into the highways. Even though it could be used on city roads, it was too eye-catching and not helpful in hiding his identity.
Reluctantly, Li Mu dumped the motorbike aside and walked to the railway line. He climbed into one of the moving trains, hid in a carriage, and headed to an unknown place.
He was forced to sneak onto the train to escape. Because of his false identity, he could not buy any train or bus ticket. He could only get a cab or sneak onto a moving train.
He was afraid of the Shen Family's influence in that area so he didn’t dare to grab a cab. He had no choice but to run away by sneaking onto a train.
After Li Mu's great escape, the Shen Family sent his people to catch him. On the other hand, the Lin Family started their action on the third night.
Though only four of them were sneaking into the village, they were followed by a dozen experienced fighters. They were deployed around the surrounding for standby. If anything happened to the four of them, they would rescue them by all means.
Before they went near the Shen village, the Lin Family felt that something was going on. They had never seen so many people walking in and out of it during their last trips here. It seemed like something had happened in it.
Mrs. Hong decisively ordered the group not to move forward anymore in order to avoid the Shen Family's suspicion.
To be on the safe side, she got Third uncle and Fifth uncle to gather some information first. Both of them came back with a weird look after a short while.
Third uncle could not help laughing when he saw Lin Wan, “Lin Wan, we don't have to rescue Li Mu anymore. He has escaped from the village!”
Lin Wan looked at him shockingly. She asked confusedly, “Escaped?”
“Yeah. He had stolen a motorbike and got two girls to lead him the way out of the village. Then, he rode the bike and ran off. They have found the bike, but not him!”
All the Lin Family members showed a weird look except Lin Wan and He Xiaoyu who looked stunned. Why did he run away again? Was he so addicted to escaping?
He Xiaoyu pulled Lin Wan's sleeve and asked softly, “Isn't he going to get married? Why did he run away now?”
“Maybe, no. I think it's not a maybe. I'm pretty sure my husband does not want to marry Shen Xingyue!” Lin Wan said happily.
He Xiaoyu was happy for her as well. Besides this, Li Mu should not have any other reason to run away. It should not have gone wrong. It must be Shen Xingyue who forced him to marry her and he never wanted to do so. That was why he ran away from her.
“Yeah. I think he ran away because of this reason as well.” Mrs. Hong agreed to it. “But we don't know where he is now. There is not even a single clue for us to trace him. Where should we look for him?”
After Mrs. Hong said that, three of them frowned and sighed incessantly.
