Chapter 43 Falling into the trap again

After leaving the camp, Gu Zhi looked solemn.

Following the sound towards the source, Gu Zhi shuttled through the mountains and forests.

The sound of rustling blades of grass is particularly clear in this forest.

Relying on her wild forest skills, she moved forward quickly.

Suddenly there was a voice in her ears, and she slowed down.

Looking forward, she realized that she had entered the gangster's den without realizing it.

The three people in front had their campfires lit and were feasting.

"Maozi, why do you think the leader listens to that woman?"

A tall, strong man with a beard turned his head and asked the thin man next to him in a gruff voice.

The man called Maozi was very delicate and incompatible with the other two tall and strong men.

Mao Zi pursed his lips and glanced towards Gu Zhi intentionally or unintentionally. Gu Zhi was so casual that he was wondering if he had been discovered, but in the blink of an eye he saw him looking away.

"I don't know, maybe the leader likes that woman."

Maozi shrugged indifferently, grabbed the rabbit leg and took a big bite. The juice overflowed and left a fragrant taste in his mouth.

The bearded man's eyes widened, looking very nervous.

"Hey, don't talk nonsense. If the leader's wife hears it, I can't protect you!"

As he spoke, he glanced at the fat man who was silent and looked extremely taboo.

The fat man knew he was talking about him, so he just glanced at him, and then said dullly: "I won't tell you everything, Maozi is our brother."

After he said this, the bearded man's expression softened, and then he patted the fat man on the shoulder, with a guilty look on his face: "I'm sorry, fat man, I shouldn't have hurt your heart like this -"

The fat man comforted him: "This is a fact. Everyone knows that I am the leader's wife, and they have helped me block a lot of gossip in disguise. I think it is good."

The bearded man chatted happily with the fat man, but Maozi beside him looked thoughtful.

Gu Zhi, who was watching everything in the grass, immediately held his breath.

Just listen to Mao Zi say: "By the way, why hasn't Old Dan come back yet? Did you discover something?"

One sentence set off alarm bells in Gu Zhi's heart.

The next moment, a deep man's voice sounded from behind her: "Because I discovered something incredible and was observing it, so - I was delayed."

The hair on his back stood up instantly, and Gu Zhi was like a frightened rabbit, scurrying out of the grass and looking at the incoming person warily.

Old Dan looked like he had gone through many changes, and the green stubble seemed to have just been shaved, leaving faint traces.

The gun in his hand was raised, he wore a camouflage scarf on his head, had a cigarette in his mouth, and looked at her with interest.

The clothes are very elegant. Although they are made of cotton, they give him a sense of fashionable decadence.

Gu Zhi had exchanged a dagger in the store before arriving.

Holding it in his hand now, it pales in comparison to the guns held by this group of people.

Pursing his lips, Gu Zhi said nothing, but looked at them warily.

She knew she had no power to fight back now, but she wanted to take a chance.

Bet they won't kill innocent people indiscriminately.

Taking the cigarette out of his mouth, dusting it, and putting it back into his mouth, Old Dan asked casually: "Are you from the camp below?"

Gu Zhi remained silent, but this was a disguised admission, which was enough for him.

He winked at Maozi, but Maozi was stunned in place from the moment he saw Gu Zhi.

"uncle--"

Mao Zi stared at Gu Zhi's face in a daze, muttering in his mouth that even the beard closest to him couldn't hear. Lao Dan frowned when he saw this and raised his voice: "Mao Zi?"

Mao Zi came back to his senses instantly and looked at Gu Zhi again with a hint of scrutiny in his eyes.

The three of them slowly surrounded Gu Zhi. Finally, at the moment when Gu Zhi's pupils dilated, Lao Dan shot her.

What was reflected in his eyes was not a bullet, but a tiny syringe.

Gu Zhi understood something instantly, but the moment the needle penetrated her skin, her consciousness gradually blurred.

Looking at the beautiful woman lying on the ground with her eyes closed, Mao Zi pursed his lips, but he could do nothing now but wait for the opportunity.

Ask why.

  After Gu Zhi left, Jiang Xiujin's expression became visibly bleak, and he often misplaced the medicines during experiments.

"Xiao Jiang, your bottle of No. 1 potion was put in the wrong order again. The colors are wrong. What's going on?!"

Xiong Ping, his colleague in the same laboratory, criticized him with a serious face, looking at him carefully and looking a little worried.

Jiang Xiujin was absent-minded, glanced at the potion in his hand, and whispered: "Sorry, I will prepare it again later."

Xiong Ping has always been outspoken. Seeing that Jiang Xiujin was in a bad state, he asked directly: "Are you worried? What happened?"

Jiang Xiujin was startled when he heard this, then smiled bitterly: "It's nothing——"

"It's impossible. The Jiang Xiujin I've seen has never been so absent-minded and completely lost his usual seriousness. You must be hiding something from me!"

Xiong Ping had a serious look on his face, and he hit the nail on the head with what Jiang Xiujin was trying to escape.

After being lost for a moment, a trace of bitterness appeared on Jiang Xiujin's face.

Gu Zhi had no idea how shocked he was to learn that she was not the same as before. This was completely beyond his knowledge.

He was calm, but as he watched her leave, his body seemed to be frozen in place, unable to save her, making it impossible for him to remain calm.

He hated himself then, and he hated himself now.

So what if she's not human?

But after she appeared, she never had any ill intentions toward him and the two children.

On the contrary, before she appeared, the original her disgusted him extremely.

What he felt was her sincere heart later.

He just pushed her away.

The indescribable emotions in his heart overwhelmed him, and he was now immersed in regret.

Pursing his lips, Jiang Xiujin understood just now. He asked, "If you quarrel with your wife, how do you make her happy?"

Xiong Ping was stunned for a moment, then laughed and winked at Jiang Xiujin, his expression full of ambiguity.

"If you have a fight, buy her something she likes to make her happy, or apologize directly until she stops being angry. Besides -"

The last words were spoken in Jiang Xiujin's ear, making the tips of Jiang Xiujin's ears turn red and his expression full of embarrassment.

Seeing his innocent look, Xiong Ping's expression suddenly became strange.

"Is it possible that you haven't consummated your marriage with her yet?"

Jiang Xiujin said nothing, but his red ears revealed his state of mind at this time.

He lowered his eyes and explained to him: "Due to work reasons, I have never had the chance-"

Is there still no chance for this kind of thing? !
  Could it be——

Xiong Ping had a subtle look on his face, patted him on the shoulder, and said in a sympathetic tone: "I understand, but you are a doctor yourself, so you should know your own reasons. If you really can't, you can buy some of that medicine, it will always be of some use - —”
