The mountains are covered with snow and the cold wind is howling.
In the north in February, although the temperature is rising every day, the forest is a place with lush vegetation. The forest that covers the sky blocks the not-so-hot sunlight in the sky.
Gu Zuozuo sat cross-legged on the flying board and flew in the air, hiding his body with the help of the lush branches and leaves of the trees. He held up his chin and looked at the dozen or so figures swaying in the woods below. The one leading them was Duan Yuyang who stole the fake treasure map.
And the man and woman beside him...
"Tong, do you think that man looks familiar?"
[Host, I have good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear? ]
"Bad news." After hearing the bad news first and then the good news, she could resist beating Tong.
[The bad news is that this person was the one who leaked the news that your family has a treasure map and incredible wealth.]
Is this bad news? Isn't it good news that when enemies meet, I have the opportunity to avenge the original owner?
"What about the good news?"
[Congratulations, host, for meeting the second member of the Gu family besides you! According to seniority, you should still call him uncle. He is a branch of your Gu family's branch.]
Gu Zuozuo was silent for a long time before he gritted his teeth and uttered a beautiful Chinese quintessence.
"Fuck!"
Was it actually a traitor? The main branch of the Gu family fell because of the schemes of the side branch? Could the original owner's family be so stupid? Aren't they all considered to be outstanding people?
[Information indicates that the decline of the main branch of the Gu family wasn't solely due to the conspiracy of the side branches and outsiders. The greater reason was that the main family members were too devoted. Your father, grandfather, great-grandfather, great-great-grandfather, and great-great-grandfather all married only the women they loved throughout their lives. And unfortunately, these women all died young. Some gave birth to one child and died, while others had two. By the time your father's generation came around, only he and your uncle were left. As a result, your uncle disappeared early, and your father was secretly taken away. Now, in your generation, you're the only one left. Surprising? Unexpected?]
The incredible wealth you see in the Gu family came from these ancestors who lost their partners. They spent the rest of their lives frantically making money. Your grandfather, however, donated every penny he earned to support the revolution, leaving nothing for you.
Gu Zuozuo exclaimed in amazement. It didn't matter that her grandfather was generous, after all, it was for the greater good. Besides, she still had the things left to her by her great-grandfather and others. Those things could allow her to start from scratch and create a new Gu Bancheng.
"System, thank you for choosing this identity for me."
The system shyly shook the tentacles on its head, and was so shy from being praised that its entire body became pink.
If it said it was an accident, I wonder if the host would beat it.
At that time, its energy was almost exhausted, and it happened to meet the original owner who had died in vain. While the flow of time and space was still there, it used up its last bit of energy to send the original owner back to the host's world and sent the host into this body. As for what would happen to the original owner in the afterlife, it had never thought about it, but at least he would definitely continue to live.
[No... you're welcome. It's my duty. It's because I gave you... uh... when Hua Ting blew you up...]
It’s over!
Gu Zuozuo sneered and narrowed his eyes.
"So, what Hua Ting did really has something to do with you? Huh?"
The last ending tone of "hmm" was raised, and the listening system instantly became silent.
Sure enough, Tong cannot be too relaxed, otherwise he will be held accountable by the host again. It has figured out that Hua Ting is the hurdle that the host cannot get over.
"Ayang, how far is it?"
Gu Shang stood there panting, constantly looking around. The scenery around him was exactly the same and he couldn't tell which direction they were going.
Duan Yuyang looked at the map in his hand, then looked at the surrounding environment, and after confirming it, he pointed forward with certainty.
"It's not far ahead. There's a small mountain there. The thing is in the cave on the top of the mountain!"
Gu Zuozuo in mid-air heard this and wanted to laugh proudly but tried to hold it back. He almost laughed out loud.
That place is a Feng Shui treasure land that she carefully selected for these people. These people will definitely get a big surprise when they come there.
Meanwhile, Xie Jinyu, who was stationed at the foot of another mountain, witnessed with his own eyes a bird that was supposed to fly south for the winter and then flew away after delivering a letter. He began to wonder if his eyes had become blurry from the long interrogations and the nights he had stayed up.
"Captain! Who sent it?"
Xie Jinyu held the thin envelope in his hand, his tone a little vague.
"A... bird?"
Jiang Bei looked at him with an expression that said, "Are you crazy?" Where did the birds come from in this season?
"Captain, are you hallucinating from picking up manure? Where are the birds coming from at this hour?"
Xie Jinyu glanced at him indifferently, which made Jiang Bei's hair stand on end. Then he withdrew his gaze and opened the envelope in his hand.
"Huh? It's not handwritten? Is this a scam?"
The content on the letter paper should have been made by pasting words cut out from newspapers. It was crooked, but it did not prevent them from understanding the content.
"There's a spy from Bandit Mountain. He just arrived today. Who sent this?"
Xie Jinyu's expression suddenly became serious and sharp.
"Don't care who sent them here. As long as they're spies, we can't let any of them go. Immediately mobilize people, divided into four teams of thirty people each. Those who are hiding and have connections with the spy islanders will be captured and interrogated. As for the remaining team, I will personally lead them to Bandit Mountain! Have the brothers who remain in the regiment keep an eye on those islanders."
"yes!"
Jiang Bei was about to leave, but seemed to have thought of something and turned back to ask Xie Jinyu with an uncertain tone.
"Boss! What about those people we rescued from the lab?"
