Gu Qimei glanced at the guard, and she raised the small cyan porcelain bottle in her hand.

The latter, understandingly, took a dagger from his body and handed it to her.

She came out of the residence of the king of Sealand and went to the town to do business.

There are also guards assigned by the empress to follow.

The guard's skills are good, as long as she doesn't deal with particularly powerful enemies or has more than one enemy, it's more than enough to protect her.

Therefore, Gu Qimei had no sharp weapons on her, so she could only borrow them from the guards.

Gu Qimei took the dagger handed to her by the guard, and she used a sharp blade to cut the wax on the mouth of one of the bottles.

She was still very careful, for fear of damaging the bottle, which contained the most important clues.

The case of the disappearance of the pioneer battalion has not been fully clarified, and there is now a case of involvement with people in the army.

Gu Qimei's trip to Nanhua Town is too necessary!

When she pulled the cork, she shook the bottle slightly.

There is a liquid in the bottle, and the most intuitive feeling is that it is medicine, and as soon as the cork is removed, a special smell comes out!

It's different from the ordinary medicinal smell, and it smells pretty good!

The guards noticed this and immediately stepped forward, their faces changing in an instant.

He immediately leaned down and sniffed carefully near the mouth of the bottle, he was judging, and then he frowned and looked at Gu Qimei and said, "If you guess correctly, this is"

The words came to an abrupt end!

Gu Qimei turned her head and glanced at him: "What is it?" ”

The guard's lips moved, and he stopped talking.

He avoided Gu Qimei's gaze, glanced at the mountains and forests in the distance, felt a little awkward like this, and turned his head to look at Gu Qimei and said, "There are accompanying military doctors at the station, or I will ask them to take a look when they arrive." ”

"They definitely know better."

When he said this, he couldn't help but sigh, staring at the mountains and forests on the side, and didn't make a sound for a long time.

Gu Qimei looked at the guard in front of her, and her eyes never let go of the subtle expression on his face.

The guard's reaction was surprising, and he felt that it was not a good feeling, and his reaction was really strange.

Gu Qimei felt that what he had just said clearly knew something, but he had concerns and didn't want to explain things clearly.

Gu Qimei glanced at him puzzled, then stared at him and said, "Is there anything unsightly about the things inside?" ”

"Why are you halfway through?" She eased her tense expression, her eyes still fixed on the guard, and asked him in a low voice.

Gu Qimei picked up the bottle and looked at it, but she really hadn't seen the strange liquid in the bottle, and she didn't have a clue for a while.

The guard may have an answer, but he is spitting and refusing to tell the truth and make it clear, I don't know what the reason is!

Gu Qimei asked, and the guard shook his head and said to her: "I'm not sure, so I don't dare to say more, please forgive me." ”

used two "don't dare" in a row, and the tone was cautious.

He persuaded: "Without further ado, let's hurry back to the station." ”

The expression on his face was not at all relaxed.

He didn't want to say much, but the mood of rushing was very urgent, and he insisted so much, what could he not say!

Gu Qimei felt that the truth of the matter seemed to be a door, she had already arrived at the door, but she was wandering and couldn't find a way to break into the door for the time being.

She hesitated for a moment, then caught up with the guard.

Hurry up and rush towards the mountain station of the Sealand King Division in the north of Nanhua Town.

What's in the bottle? Gu Qimei was confused!

The guards who followed closely behind her frowned tightly at this moment, once the liquid in the bottle was confirmed, I was afraid that it would cause a big wave.

His years in the army were much earlier than Gu Qimei, and he still remembered the things that happened in the army, especially the events in which the empress personally gave punishment orders.

The empress has some untouchable minefields, and strict military discipline has its own rules.

Gu Qimei was in the town, but she met the man with a somewhat strange whereabouts by chance.

She was suspicious, so she followed the other party and followed her all the way down town, and learned that the situation was more complicated than she had imagined.

That man actually went to the deep alley, and he was involved in a deal with the alien race in the Northland.

The key is that he is the person of the king of Sealand, once he is related to the alien race in the north, how he will associate it with the personality of the empress, everyone below can think of it.

If the matter is big, the consequences will be like the night wind, and the guards will speed up and follow closely behind Gu Qimei, but his heart is heavy and full of worry.

There will be a turmoil when people in the army are involved, no small turmoil.

Not surprisingly, even those in high positions in the royal division will be implicated.

How to face the empress's thunderous wrath at that time, he couldn't imagine!

The guards pondered, should they inform Gu Qimei when they arrived at the station and reveal some truth!

In that case, it can be regarded as allowing her to be mentally prepared and give her a favor.

This Lord Gu is not very old, and there is an eldest sister in the Northland, who is in the position of a general.

Gu Qimei was placed by the empress at a young age and went in and out of the imperial study freely, this kind of treatment even many old ministers could not enjoy, and the empress trusted her very much.

The guards knew that Gu Qimei was very important, and because of this, they didn't dare to tell the truth in front of her at will.

Trust is a double-edged sword, some times it is relied on, and some times it is a knife to urge, once the trust is broken, the consequences are really not easy to grasp!

In case the guards are worried and can't think of a good way for the time being, they can only wait until they return to the station.

It's a step at a time!

The tsundere boy followed me to the big tree outside the farmhouse, I stood still, pulled a few sticks of grass from the haystack, looked at him and said, "What should I do now?" ”

According to the situation explained by the two guys just now, although the whole thing sounds a little scary, there is no flaw in logic.

If the people in the village were to be taken away by the boat, where would they be most likely to go?

I put aside some tangled questions for the time being, and decided to discuss the identity of the person with the tsundere boy first.

Out of caution, I avoided the two men in the courtyard and deliberately led the boy to the tree outside the door to talk.

After the two of them explained, there was no need to know our next plan of action, because I didn't plan to take them with me.

Both of the villagers were lucky enough to hide and escape, proving their ability to survive, so it would be good for them to stay here.

The tsundere boy leaned his back against the big tree outside, and I looked at him thoughtfully, stopping at the movement of my hands.

"Big young master, the appearance of the leader he just mentioned, do you think it doesn't look like the person I suspected?"

I threw a few sticks of grass and looked at the tsundere boy, and asked in a serious tone, "The night we stayed in the mountain village, you also saw that person with your own eyes." ”

"He has some inexplicable relationship with your family's tea plantation in Beilang Mountain," I pursed my lips and continued, "or there is no tea similar to that flavor in Nanhua Town." ”

I told the boy about this from beginning to end.

Although I disagreed with him on some things, there were also areas where I agreed, such as this trip to track down the fishing farm.

"There is actually no big problem with his identity when I hear others talk about it, it seems quite reasonable, but there are too many things about him that make me wonder."

I said sincerely, "Don't you think he's weird? ”

I paused, glancing in the distance.

Then I turned my head to stare at the tsundere young man in front of me and said: "Since he is a friend of the innkeeper in Nanhua Town, and he is still half of the guard of the tea garden, he should go back to Beilang Mountain as soon as possible after leaving Nanhua Town!" ”

I frowned and glanced at the guard, and said in a soft tone: "When he left, the innkeeper also asked him to bring things over, so why didn't he stay in the tea garden with peace of mind?" ”

"When he left the town, I obviously heard from the inn that he was going back to the Beilang Mountain area."

I listened to the innkeeper gossip and got a rough idea of what was going on about the man.

Why did he appear on the official road in the north of Nanhua Town a few days later, and took a group of people to the mountain village to inquire about the way.

His identity should not be as simple as I knew before, and all kinds of actions made me think of a word.

Lurking like the guards of the tea plantation and the labor of delivery, these are the identities he covers in the area of Nanhua Town, and in essence, it will not be so simple.

In the night breeze, the moonlight reflected the mountain village in front of me, and reflected the face of the young man standing in front of me, and his expression rippled at that moment.

I know that once the seeds of doubt are planted, it is easy to start associations, so when I mention this, the boy will definitely think of something related to him.

Actually, I want to know what the real purpose of those people is!

The Longyuan Lake they were looking for was the big lake that I saw with the boy?

The current situation is sensitive, and at another time, I may not care so much about the suspicious people I meet on the way, but it is related to the war in the Northland.

Thinking fiercely in his mind, I thought about it for a while and said, "Young Master, since he has gone north, the guards on the other side of the tea garden will definitely not continue to do it." ”

I pondered and said, "Young Master, if you get to the next post station, you contact the people of the Yuwen family, can you send someone to check his details, I want to know." ”

I know that the tsundere boy is in the mountains right now, and there is no manpower available, and when he arrives at the official road, he will come to the next stop, and the helpers he should have will come to report.

The eldest young master is good at this, there is never a shortage of people to get started!

By the way, the eldest young master also has a lot of money!

When you get to the town, you can eat and drink spicy food, even if you go to the bitter cold northland, I believe that the treatment of the eldest young master will not be bad if he is by his side for a day!

"I've met him a few times, this person has a lot of kung fu, and he is very skilled."

I paused, retracted my thoughts, and continued, "When I was staying at the inn, I went out of my way to ask the young man over there about him. ”

"Xiaoling, stop!" The tsundere boy suddenly darkened his face and said, "You've mentioned a few irrelevant people in your kung fu for a while, so you can talk about things and mention the key points!" ”

I looked at him in a daze, didn't react at the moment, and hesitated for a moment before remembering a few points that were taboo for teenagers in the words just now.

"Okay!" I had a feeling of helplessness, knowing the crux of the eldest young master, I had to look at him and obey him softly, "I'm just making things clear!" “

"I didn't mean to mention it, I mentioned the inn"

The young man interrupted me impatiently, looked at me with his eyes blazing and said, "That person's kung fu is very good, what about the master?" ”

I looked at the tsundere boy speechlessly, and paused: "I said that the eldest young master, you haven't done anything with him, let alone in front of me!" ”

"Kung Fu is good or bad, at least I have to see the two sides fight me to judge, now you want me to judge, I don't even have a basis!"

I pursed my lips, lowered my head and thought about it, and then said, "Of course, if you like to listen to it, I can say it, you are the best in the world in kung fu, and you are unparalleled in the world, right?" ”

I looked at him and said in a calm tone.

", how can a tea garden guard compare with Ye!"

The young man's expression was cold and arrogant, and he said in an unhappy tone: "What is that! “

"Yes, you're amazing," I muttered in my heart and said to him, "Okay, young master, let's get to the point!" ”

I thought about it and said, "This area is not a fishing village, and there are no ready-made boats for us to use, so it may be a bit difficult to trace them." ”

Naturally, what I think of is related to rushing, the waterway is impassable, and there is no way to get a boat or build a boat out in a short time!

"At present, I can only go out along the other road in the village, and wait until I get outside to find a way to get a carriage to continue the journey."

The carriage was easier, and I didn't believe that I couldn't touch the next one when I walked in the mountains.

"These two in the courtyard don't have a deep grudge against us," I said, gesturing in the direction of the house, "as long as they make it clear, it would be better to let them go!" ”

"Xiaoling, you are really soft-hearted" A mocking smile rose at the corner of the young man's mouth, and it looked so obvious in the night, "You lied to us before, don't you need to be punished?" ”

"You're always like this, what are you going to do when you get a real knife and a real gun in the Northland?" The boy frowned.

I insisted on my decision: "Young Master, you have to be forgiving and forgiving, or don't want it!"

In my opinion, I looked at him and continued, "Young Master, you still do the same as last time, just tie them to the tree!" ”

We did the same last time, of course, they may have a way to get out, but the tsundere boy will definitely be tied more tightly this time.

For them, the difficulty factor of escape has increased!

This village is located in a remote area, and there are even fewer people passing by, and it is unlikely that external forces will help, it still depends on these two people!
