Chapter 140: Can these people become invisible?



Gu Xiaoyue blushed and reached out to hit Gu Beiting. "Sister-in-law, don't listen to her nonsense."

Gu Beiting raised the corners of her mouth and said unconvincedly: "Who said I was talking nonsense? You haven't gotten up to practice martial arts these past two days. When I woke up this morning, I saw you sitting in the back reading a storybook."

Su Qi looked at the two little girls bickering, smiled and shook her head.

"You two should stop arguing with Xiaoyu. She is still a patient." Su Qi quickly pulled apart the two people who were arguing with each other.

Hear this.

Gu Beiting and Gu Xiaoyue looked at Tang Xiaoyu at the same time and saw that Tang Xiaoyu had woken up.

A pair of big eyes stared at them, indicating that they had never seen these beautiful sisters before.

She turned her head to look for a familiar figure, but there was no one else in the room except Su Qi and the other two.

Even everything in this room feels strange.

"Who are you?" Tang Xiaoyu's voice was soft, like a weak little kitten.

It was hard for Su Qi to associate her with a big and strong guy like Tang Dayu, the key point was that they were siblings.

"I'm a doctor. Your brother entrusted you to me for treatment." Su Qi said as he stood in front of Tang Xiaoyu's bed.

She tucked the quilt covering Tang Xiaoyu and explained softly:

"Xiaoyu, just stay here and relax. You'll have plenty of opportunities to see your brother in the future."

"Have you seen Brother Tian Dao?"

Su Qi didn't quite recognize this name, but she thought it was the man who looked like a hunter.

"Is he a hunter?"

"Yeah." Tang Xiaoyu nodded.

"With your brother."

Perhaps after a few words, Tang Xiaoyu began to pant again. Su Qi gave her a pill and asked her to hold it under her tongue.

She gave Tang Xiaoyu some instructions and only came out after seeing her close her eyes to rest.

Gu Beiting and Gu Xiaoyue followed her out, and Su Qi told them to take good care of her. Her medication and diet should all be in accordance with her instructions.

Su Qi returned to the house, and Gu Beiheng also came back.

Both of them were feeling uneasy, fearing that the inexplicable solar eclipse might have been manipulated by someone with ulterior motives.

Gu Beiheng carefully asked Su Qi about the scene in her dream. Su Qi hadn't read much of the book. She even skipped chapters. After these days, her memory began to blur.

Only the hatred deep in my heart remains.

This is what Su Qi couldn't figure out.

"I don't remember much. I told you some things before, but I always feel that some of them are different from what I dreamed about." Su Qi frowned and thought about it carefully, but still couldn't figure it out.

Gu Beiheng no longer hesitated.

He took Su Qi's hand and asked softly:

"Qiqi. If I want to go somewhere, would you like to come with me?"

"where?"

"Take you to steal something."

Su Qi smiled and replied:

"I have to go."

Su Qi became interested and wanted to know where Gu Beiheng was going.

Gu Beiheng chuckled softly, his doting eyes fixed on Su Qi. "There's a place in the East Market of Mingfeng Town that belongs to the Zhang family. Prefect Zhang of Jinyang Prefecture is the proud student and son-in-law of the old Prince Rongshan."

Mingfeng Town Wharf is also a fortress.

There are many ships traveling here, and land transportation is not far from the other two countries.

There is an iron mine in the mountain behind Mengjiazhuang, so naturally they have industries and houses in Mingfeng Town.

"When are we going?" Su Qi was a little impatient.

Gu Beiheng smiled and scratched her nose. "Let's go in two days. Tomorrow we will go to Yun County. County Magistrate Zhou wants to discuss something with us."

Gu Beiheng also met people from Yun County when he arrived in Mingfeng Town.

County Magistrate Zhou gave them a letter inviting the couple to go to Yun County.

Su Qi released her hand and returned to the house with a smile. She prepared some gifts for County Magistrate Zhou.

After thinking for a long time, Su Qi still had no idea what to give. Finally, she thought of the vegetables in the greenhouse. She called Xiang He, "Xiang He, get up early tomorrow and go to the greenhouse in the backyard to pick some vegetables and put them in a basket."

"Madam, is this a gift? I heard from Meng Gouduo that the merchants from Yun County are here again to ask if we can sell our vegetables." Xiang He came in and first added a piece of incense into the charcoal basin, and then covered the charcoal basin.

"Yes. Send it to County Magistrate Zhou. Fortunately, Meng Gouduo and you made preparations. Otherwise, the vegetables in the greenhouse would probably all die." Su Qi said softly.

There is nothing left on the people's land.

"I'm picking some fresh vegetables. The cucumbers in the shed are ready to eat. Would you like to pick a couple and have them as a cold cucumber salad tonight?"

"That's fine. Just a change of taste." Su Qi pinched a rose cake and ate it. "Xiang He, bring some snacks to the food in the next yard. They are all soldiers who have come back from the battlefield. Don't forget to take their daily tonic soup."

Xiang He walked forward and poured Su Qi a cup of tea for her daughter, then placed the cup in Su Qi's hand and said:

"Madam, I've remembered it all. I stew the nourishing soup every two days, and I use the most meat for the neighboring courtyard." Xiang He paused and said, "I know they have big appetites, so I cook more rice and steamed buns."

Xiang He half-knelt beside Su Qi, "Madam. I wonder why your mother is so sad? They don't know that your life is pretty good now. They think you are suffering here."

Xianghe was glad that she had made preparations early, otherwise she would have been completely in the dark when she arrived at Mengjiazhuang.

Su Qi paused holding the cup lid, "Wait a little longer. The Su family is not under the control of my mother. The old lady is concerned about my father's official position.

If I rashly send the letter back, it might not be good. Besides, what a mess it is out there. I wouldn't dare send a letter to someone I don't know the situation well. "Su Qi's eyes darkened.

The Su family's father's branch is naturally harmonious.

But he has other brothers, and none of them have separated from the family.

The old lady controlled the household expenses and favored her youngest son. However, she wondered if Susan had told her family and Uncle Liu about the food reserves.

Thinking of this, Su Qi couldn't help but sigh.

The sky outside was always dark.

The people in the forest behind the mountain experienced several life-and-death struggles. In the end, they all escaped, and Ying Yi even led his men to destroy an enemy stronghold.

Several people put everything they could take out of the granary on their bodies.

Whatever could not be taken away was burned.

The flames shot up into the sky, alarming the people in the dense forest.

Deep in the jungle.

In a village.

The man in the brocade robe slapped the messenger away with a palm, his sinister eyes gleaming with a terrifying dark light. "How can this be? You don't even know who it is anymore?"

Several men nearby quickly bent down and dared not speak.

"Master, I've led some people to investigate, and there's no sign of anyone entering the area near several villages." One of the black-robed men bowed and said, "It's been snowing heavily for days. If someone had entered the mountains, there would have been traces."

"Are you saying these people can become invisible?" The man in brocade robes snorted coldly, "Nonsense. Investigate them more carefully."

"Yes. I'll arrange it right away."

"Wait, focus on checking the mountains near Jin'an Prefecture. That's where the Third Prince's maternal grandfather's family has power." A dark light flashed in the eyes of the man in brocade robe, and he raised his hand to signal the man in black robe to stop.

The man in black robe was stunned. Hadn’t the third prince been captured by them?

"Master, the Third Prince is practically a useless person. Logically, he shouldn't be one of them, right?"

"It's hard to say. Maybe someone is using this excuse to make us anxious so they can take the opportunity to move the Third Prince." The man in the brocade robe interrupted the man in the black robe. "As long as we don't get the tiger talisman, we won't be able to rest assured."

"Yes. I will send someone to investigate right away."

After the man in black robe left.

The man in brocade robe stood on the bamboo building, looking at the place covered with snow in the distance.

What exactly is going on with the armory and granary?

Why did everything inside disappear?

He had a vague feeling that someone was betraying his own people, and it wasn't just one or two people.

His eyes darkened, and a murderous aura was revealed.

"Come here. Thoroughly interrogate the guards from the past few days, and punish them if necessary. I don't believe we can't find the traitors."
