The next day, Qu Zunming prepared things early in the morning, and today he and Shen Jiayi had already made an appointment to go to the cave that Ah Xiang said to explore.

Qu Zunming was just about to go out when he heard a quick knock on the door.

He walked over to open the door, and saw Zhen Lin standing outside the door.

"Brother Qu, are you going out?"

Qu Zunming nodded lightly.

Zhen Lin looked aggrieved, muttered and said,

"Brother Qu has rarely come to me since he met Miss Shen, I know that Miss Shen is beautiful and a young lady from a big family, there is no way to compare with a country girl like me? But Brother Qu can't forget my commitment to the team, not to mention that I still have this here? ”

Qu Zunming watched Zhen Lin take out the IOU again, he was still a little apologetic, after all, this was also a deception.

Qu Zunming walked over, gently patted Zhen Lin's shoulder, and said lightly,

"Did you misunderstand, Miss Shen and I are just going to get down to business?"

When Zhen Lin heard Qu Zunming explain to her, her mood instantly improved a lot.

"Brother Qu, I see that you have brought a lot of things, where are you going, I want to go together!"

Qu Zunming comforted him and said,

"Let's go to the back mountain to find clues, it's more dangerous there, why don't you go?"

Zhen Lin's face changed color instantly when she heard this,

"I must go, the back mountain is so dangerous, how can I let you go alone, don't forget, but you are still picked up by me on the back mountain. I promise to stay by your side and take care of you! ”

Qu Zunming laughed,

"Do I want you to be a little girl for protection?"

At this time, Wang Er and Zhen Daniu didn't know when they would come.

"Young master, how can you go to the back mountain without taking us with you? There are traps everywhere in the back mountain, in case you have something to do, how can I explain it to the master? ”

Qu Zunming hadn't had time to speak yet. Zhen Da Niu walked up to him and put the rope on his body on the ground.

"These are all prepared by Wang Er early on, I don't have other skills in Zhen Da Niu, but I can't beat it with strength? Just take us along, shall you? ”

Zhen Lin reached over and snatched the compass in Qu Zunming's hand and said earnestly,

"I'm your living signpost, I'm sure it's much better than this thing, and I can take you wherever you're going."

Qu Zunming looked at Wang Er beside him, looking at Zhen Lin and Zhen Daniu, they are indeed more familiar with this world than him, if he talks about ability, he has no specialty.

Qu Zunming pondered for a few seconds and said solemnly,

"I'll take you with me, but there is a premise that you listen to me in everything, and you can't advocate without permission!"

Zhen Lin said with a happy smile,

"Roger, Captain Qu!" After speaking, Zhen Lin leaned over to Qu Zunming's side and asked in a whisper,

"What are we going to the back mountains for, are we going treasure hunting?"

Qu Zunming saw her and said lightly,

"It's not a treasure hunt, it's a search for someone!"

Zhen Lin looked at him suspiciously,

"Dead or alive, our brothers and sisters are the best at finding the dead?"

Qu Zunming's face has not been faintly unable to see any waves,

"Living!"

Zhen Lin's eyes widened, like a pair of copper bells, and she muttered quietly,

"It can't be the sequelae of the last injury, why do you talk in the middle of the day?" Her voice was smaller than the voice of a mosquito, and although Zhen Lin had a lot of confusion in her heart, she didn't dare to say it, for fear that Qu Zunming would temporarily change her mind and not take her with her.

As soon as the group went downstairs, they saw Shen Jiayi downstairs. She was wearing a smart jumpsuit, a pair of boots on her feet, and her hair was tied up, looking very smart.

Zhen Lin looked at her outfit, a simple floral blouse and a black skirt, she originally thought that this body was quite decent, but in front of Shen Jiayi, she was instantly compared to her, Zhen Lin was angry in her heart, she knew that Shen Jiayi would go, she wouldn't go.

Shen Jiayi saw a few people behind Qu Zunming, so she asked suspiciously,

"...... they?"

Qu Zunming nodded,

"They went with us, this is Wang Er, he is skilled, these two are Zhen brothers and sisters, they know more about the back mountain?"

Shen Jiayi nodded to them one by one, since it was the person Qu Zunming planned to bring, Shen Jiayi naturally had no objections.

Along the way, Zhen Lin was far away from Shen Jiayi, for fear that others would compare them. Shen Jiayi saw that Qu Zunming had been following Wang Er and Zhen Daniu by her side, and she wanted to talk to Zhen Lin. Helplessly, Zhen Lin seemed to deliberately avoid her!

Everyone walked to the suburbs non-stop, and now you can see that a lot of high platforms have been built there to recruit workers, and the treatment posted on them is good.

At this time, there was already someone shouting on the high platform of a family,

"Now it's possible to advance three months' salary, who wants to go? Expire without waiting! ”

Qu Zunming, who was standing in the crowd, looked at the people around him,

Shen Jiayi got closer, she also thought that this was the place where Ah Xiang said that the suburbs recruited workers, if she could get in smoothly, she would not be so passive, so that the chances of winning would be greater.

"What now?"

Qu Zunming thought for a few seconds and said,

"I'll sneak in, I'll mark you on the road, and you'll follow the plan."

Wang Er, who was standing behind Qu Zunming, looked a little excited at the moment, and he pressed Qu Zunming's shoulder at once,

"How can you let you go for such a dangerous thing, young master? I'll go.....? ”

Qu Zunming wanted to stop it, but it was too late, and as soon as Wang Er's words fell, he jumped on the high platform,

The people on the high platform hurriedly shouted,

"Welcome this benevolent brother to our big family," said Wang Er, who advanced three months' wages as a sign of justice.

Wang Er happily took the money in the man's hand, jumped off the high platform and handed the money to Qu Zunming's hand, then turned around and followed the man to the backstage.

Qu Zunming looked at Wang Er's back, and couldn't help but feel nervous in his heart, no matter what, he couldn't let him have anything to do.

At night, Qu Zunming and Shen Jiayi hid in the shadows together, and more than a dozen people were brought into the background in addition to Wang Er. He hadn't seen anyone inside for a whole day, and Qu Zunming thought to himself that they should go back to the evening before leaving.

Tonight's stars have quietly hidden behind the dark clouds, and everything is dark on a moonless night, and everyone hiding in the grass is numb with squatting feet but still dare not come out.

The gusts of cold wind blowing, which makes people feel hungry and cold. Zhen Lin curled up and unconsciously approached Shen Jiayi. Zhen Daniu took out a few flatbreads from the bag he carried with him and distributed them to everyone.

Shen Jiayi took a bite of the big cake that was as hard as cowhide and it was difficult to swallow, this was the first time she had eaten a cake in the wind, she looked back and saw that Zhen Lin had eaten it very fragrantly, and even Qu Zunming had already eaten half of it.

At this moment, a man suddenly appeared at the intersection, holding a torch in his hand, and the men in black followed in turn......
