The little village girl dressed as a disaster star led the whole village astray

Chapter 139: Too Capable? Too Incompetent?

"I don't need a good wife in the eyes of others." Gu Jingyi looked at Li Xi seriously, "You know, my mother and father like you very much.

My father only had my mother in his life and never had any concubines.

If he can do it, I can do it too.

Even though the world is full of prosperity, I just want to have a simple meal with one person."

Li Xi's heartstrings were touched by Gu Jingzhi's affectionate promise. There was a glimmer in her eyes. The world around her seemed to be quiet. Only the breathing and heartbeats of the two of them could be clearly heard.

Li Xi avoided Gu Jingzhi's fiery gaze and coughed lightly, "Coarse tea and plain food are not enough. You are a major general, you should have fine clothes and delicious food."

After she finished speaking, her little hand turned in his palm, broke free, clasped her hands behind her back, and strode forward.

Gu Jingzhi was stunned when he heard this, and stared at her cheerful back in a daze.

After walking a few steps, Li Xi found that Gu Jingzhi had not caught up yet, so she stopped and turned to look at him, "What's wrong? Are you stupid?"

Gu Jingzhi looked at her bright eyes and the smile on her lips, then he curled his lips into a smile and followed her.

Doctor Wu is gone, but life goes on as usual.

Awei stayed at Li's house for a few days. With Li Xi's "enlightenment", he has now returned to his previous lively state.

Li Xi's lifestyle also returned to what it was before, going to bed early and getting up late every day.

In fact, Awei and Li Xi rarely saw each other in a day, but they would quarrel every time they met. Hu Zi went from trying to stop them in the beginning to shaking his head and finally turning a blind eye, all in just a few days.

The truth is that when the two of them meet, neither of them will spare the other. It's also Hu Zi's fate that he has to bear a burden that he shouldn't bear at such a young age.

Li Xi privately complained to Gu Jingzhi that Awei had no awareness at all of being a dependent.

……

As time passed, the hemostatic and anti-inflammatory drugs ordered by Song Zhe were finally produced. He had been out for long enough, and it was time to go back.

When Song Zhe and his group first arrived, they stayed in an inn, but later on, for convenience, they rented a courtyard in the city.

The yard is not big, with two rows of houses in front and back, three in the front and five in the back. It is definitely not exquisite, but it is big enough.

After all, Jiayuguan is neither the capital nor the south of the Yangtze River. It is located at the border between the desert and Dayan, and is born with a rugged atmosphere.

The house that Song Zhe rented was not small, and the yard was even bigger.

At this moment, there were more than ten large boxes placed in the yard, and the guards were carrying two of them at a time into the house.

Song Zhe stood under the eaves, watching them move the boxes with a gloomy look.

Wang Ren stood behind Song Zhe. Feeling the low pressure coming from him, he subconsciously moved back.

Just then, a young man dressed as a scholar came over.

"Major General." He saluted Song Zhe with his hands folded.

When Song Zhe heard his voice, he turned his gaze and looked at him.

"Get up."

"Thank you, Major General." Cui Ming stood up straight.

"How's the investigation going? Is there any progress?" Song Zhe's voice clearly revealed a hint of anxiety.

But it's not surprising that more than a month has passed and their plan has not made any progress at all.

The medicine has been delivered, and they can't stay for much longer. If there is no useful information, their trip will be in vain.

Song Zhe frowned slightly. He was a major general and wasted so much time staying here, not to buy medicine.

Talking about this, Cui Ming was also very annoyed. His father was the military advisor of General Song, and he inherited his father's business. Although he was young, he was proud of his talent.

He volunteered to follow the major general to Jiayuguan, but he never expected that this would be such a tough nut to crack.

"Reporting to Major General, the people we sent to investigate secretly still found nothing, but there are some more strangers in Jiayuguan."

Over the past month, they have eliminated many people, both openly and covertly, in an attempt to dig out the mysterious man hidden behind the Zhenbei Army, but have gained nothing.

Instead, they discovered several groups of people who had similar goals as them.

Song Zhe sneered, "The fifth batch, right?"

"That's right. The Zhenbei Army is really good at hiding people. If I were you, they wouldn't hide people in the main camp, would they?

Otherwise, how could we not find it?" Wang Ren said, scratching his arm.

After he finished speaking, he felt more and more that what he said was right. Five groups of people had come before and after, so they made it six groups in total. Jiayuguan was so small that they had almost searched the entire land for more than a month, but they still found nothing.

The person must be in the Zhenbei Army camp!

Cui Ming's eyes lit up. This was a direction they had never thought of before. He glanced at Wang Ren, who was tall and muscular.

I didn't expect that this simple-minded guy with strong limbs could also have such moments of intelligence.

Cui Ming looked at Song Zhe and saw that he was also thinking deeply, so he knew that he was also considering the possibility of this situation.

"Major General, what Wang Ren said makes sense. We have searched all over Jiayuguan for places where people could be hiding. It would be fine if we didn't find anyone, but we couldn't even find the place where they make medicine.

It really shouldn’t be like this.”

It is easy to hide a person, but it is not so easy to hide a place.

"Yes, Major General, our brothers have searched Jiayuguan from top to bottom these days. Except for the General Zhenbei's Mansion, our brothers have searched all the possible places." Wang Ren said with a bitter face.

These days he has been going out with them to look for people almost every day. It's because they don't have enough people. Running around every day is really not a human job. The key is that they haven't found anything.

"Major General, the Zhenbei General's Mansion is indeed a suspect, but there are too many people protecting the Zhenbei General's Mansion inside and outside, and our people can't get in."

At this point, Cui Ming felt somewhat helpless. Given their identities, he knew without a doubt that there were people secretly monitoring them. He did not think that their actions were perfect.

It is impossible that the people responsible for monitoring them did not discover anything. They discovered it but did not stop it, which shows that they are very confident.

"Can't get in?" Song Zhe's cold eyes swept across Cui Ming and Wang Ren, "It's just one person and one place. If you can't find it, then the other five groups can't find it either.

I really don’t know whether it’s because the Zhenbei Army is too capable, or you are too incompetent!”

"Major General, calm down."

"Major General, calm down."

Song Zhe sneered and kicked them hard, one at a time. "Calm down? Calm down!"

The force of these two kicks was very strong. Wang Ren was able to stabilize his body and only took a step back. Cui Ming, a scholar, was kicked to the ground by him and looked very embarrassed.

Feeling the severe pain in his abdomen, Cui Ming's face turned pale.
