Chapter 81 The Mysterious Man



Because the matter of Big Mao Ge has now been investigated by the Armed Forces Department, it has basically been resolved. Therefore, Li Mingxi took his two younger brothers to the mountains to pick mushrooms every day as usual. But for some reason today, their luck didn't seem to be very good. They walked for a long time but didn't see any mushrooms. For this reason, the two twin brothers even wanted to go home.

Just then, a rabbit suddenly jumped out from the grass in the distance.

"Ah, there's a rabbit! That's great!" Li Mingde said as he ran over, shouting, "Brother, come quickly, let's catch this big rabbit so we can have a rabbit to eat tonight!"

Li Mingyi glanced at Li Mingxi and said, "Sister, look, Xiaode is calling me. I'll go over first. You just wait here while we catch a big rabbit for you to eat."

After Li Mingyi said this, he ran away without giving Li Mingxi a chance to refuse. Helplessly, Li Mingxi could only stand there waiting for his two younger brothers. Just like that, after an unknown amount of time, the two still hadn't come back. Li Mingxi became anxious and decided to go look for them.

She shouted as she walked along the way, but there was no answer except the rustling of the wind. Looking at the silent surroundings, Li Mingxi suddenly thought of the time when she encountered a wild boar when she was a child, and she couldn't help but worry, fearing that something might happen to the two of them.

She walked deeper and deeper, and she kept walking until she saw a sign that prohibited entry from a long distance. Looking at the restricted area in front of her, Li Mingxi hesitated whether to continue going in. Although she had the weapon of space and could hide in it at any time when she encountered danger, she couldn't help feeling a little scared when she thought about the ferocious appearance of the wild boar.

Thinking that her two lovely younger brothers might be inside, Li Mingxi decided to go in. Just when she mustered up her courage and decided to step into the restricted area, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a mark on the ground next to her, so she quickly moved over to take a look.

After careful identification, I found that it was a footprint, and it looked a bit like the footprint left by the shoes Mingyi was wearing today. I immediately thought that my brother might have run in that direction, so I followed the footprints.

At the same time, two people were hiding in a bush not far away. One of them, a bearded man, was the first to speak, "Captain, has this girl noticed us? What's wrong with her? Isn't this place forbidden to let people come? Why does this girl keep coming here?"

The man called the captain said coldly, "Probably not."

Zhu Qiang was puzzled, "Captain, how do you know?"

Unfortunately, the man called Captain didn't answer his question at all. Seeing that the Captain ignored him, Zhu Qiang had no choice but to shut up.

While the two were talking, Li Mingxi had already walked away.

Seeing that the people had left, Zhu Qiang and the other man no longer hid. They came out directly and walked to the place where Li Mingxi had just stayed.

Zhu Qiang couldn't help but wonder, "Hey, why did the captain leave?"

The man didn't say anything, but just pointed to the footprints on the ground and asked Zhu Qiang to look.

"So there are footprints. I thought that person seemed to have seen something and left. But the traces are really light! Captain, you are really amazing and observe very carefully." Zhu Qiang gave a thumbs up in praise.

The man ignored the compliment and looked in the direction where Li Mingxi disappeared, thoughtfully.

Zhu Qiang's voice rang in his ears, "Captain, aren't you afraid of that girl coming over just now?"

Hearing this, the man just looked at him coldly without saying anything. Looking at the captain's indifferent eyes, Zhu Qiang shut his mouth wisely. He knew that usually when the captain looked at people with this kind of eyes, it meant that he was impatient. If he spoke again, he would be punished. Don't ask him what he knew, because he was the one who was punished the most.

Seeing that there was no one here, the two of them hid again and waited for prey. They waited for a long time, but no prey came here, except for the girl who was looking for someone just now. Zhu Qiang couldn't help but become suspicious.

Could it be that there was something wrong with the captain's trap? But he didn't dare to say anything. He could only pray that prey would take the bait. He hadn't eaten meat for so long that his mouth was dry.

You have to know that their leader specifically told them to keep the mission confidential this time. Therefore, although they have been in Yueshan for many days, they have been avoiding the crowd. So except for a few specific people, no one knows that a small team is stationed on Yueshan now.

But to be honest, apart from protecting those geologists, they usually have nothing to do. For these soldiers, this is a particularly arduous task, especially eating bland meals every day, which is another kind of torture for them.

In order to satisfy their appetite, they decided to take turns hunting every day.

Well, today it was Zhu Qiang and the captain's turn. Who would have thought that after such a long time, they didn't catch any prey. If they continued like this, they would probably be laughed at by their comrades when they returned. Zhu Qiang could already imagine the faces of that group of people.

Li Mingxi followed the footprints and finally found that the footprints disappeared in front of a cave. Looking at the dark cave, Li Mingxi immediately realized that something was wrong and turned around to run, but it was too late.

At some point, a man was standing behind her, swinging a stick and hitting Li Mingxi. Feeling someone behind her, Li Mingxi immediately dodged out of inertia, but did not notice that a stick was also coming towards her. In this way, Li Mingxi dodged the stick behind her, but did not avoid the frontal attack, and fainted directly.

At the moment Li Mingxi fainted, the man who was lying in ambush waiting for his prey looked in the direction where Li Mingxi had just disappeared, as if he had sensed something.

At this moment, Zhu Qiang suddenly shouted excitedly, "Captain, we caught something, come and see."

When the man heard this, he looked online and saw a spore hanging in the air. Seeing that their mission for the day was complete, the two decided to go back. At this time, Zhu Qiang said, "I wonder if that girl just now has found someone?"

Hearing this, the man glanced at Zhu Qiang, seemingly expressing doubt.

Seeing the captain looking at him, Zhu Qiang quickly explained, "Captain, I don't mean anything else. I just think it's a bit dangerous to go up the mountain alone to look for someone. Think about it, there are all kinds of things on this mountain. If a big guy shows up, I guess that girl's life will be in danger."

Seeing that the man didn't show any impatience, Zhu Qiang said again, "How about we go over and take a look? If we don't go down the mountain, we can just watch from a distance to see if the man has come down the mountain?"

Zhu Qiang said this not because he cared about Li Mingxi, but because he wanted to go out for a walk. However, he did not expect that the captain actually agreed.

Just like that, the two of them carried the spores and walked down along Li Mingxi's footprints.
