After listening for a while, Yin Jiaming and Zhang Cailiang felt relieved.

Fortunately, no one suspected the disappearance of Lu Jianguo and his daughter.

Yin Jiaming confidently emerged from the bushes and asked, "Yuanliang, are you here to dig medicinal herbs?"

"What a coincidence."

Tang Yuanliang was surprised to see Yin Jiaming and Zhang Cailiang coming out of the bushes.

He quickly stood up and greeted them: "What a coincidence, you are also here to do the survey."

"Hey, Comrade Zhao didn't come with you?"

"Xiao Zhao went down the mountain to get the equipment."

After traveling all night, they were tired and hungry. They had also finished the dry food they brought with them. When they smelled the fragrance of the fish and rice soup, Yin Jiaming and Zhang Cailiang were starving.

Unfortunately they arrived too late.

Except for Zhao Lingling and Tang Yunling, those who followed Tang Yuanliang to the mountain to collect herbs this time were all young and strong men in the team.

As soon as the fish and rice soup came out of the pot, everyone rushed to take out the enamel pots they brought up the mountain to scoop out the porridge. They finished the porridge in a few mouthfuls. By the time Yin Jiaming and Zhang Cailiang appeared, the porridge in the pot had already been empty.

Yin Jiaming was fine, he was able to keep his composure.

Hungry Zhang Cailiang leaned his head towards the pot.

Since they all lived in the educated youth camp, Zhou Yanfeng was familiar with Yin Jiaming and Zhang Cailiang, so he started a conversation.

"Comrade Yin and Comrade Zhang, unfortunately you are late. If you had come earlier, you could have shared some fish and rice porridge."

Zhang Cailiang: “…”

It would have been fine if the fish and rice soup hadn't been mentioned, but as soon as Yin Jiaming and Zhang Cailiang were mentioned, they became so hungry that their saliva drooled.

Yin Jiaming wiped the binoculars hanging around his neck with his sleeve and waved his hand: "No, no, Zhou Zhiqing, we have eaten dry food on the way."

"You guys are busy. Xiao Zhang and I are going to start the survey."

Yin Jiaming exchanged a few words with the people picking herbs and prepared to leave.

Suddenly he walked a few steps and turned back, asking Zhou Yanfeng: "By the way, when are you going down the mountain?"

“That’s hard to say!”

"It depends on whether we can find good medicinal herbs in this valley."

"But we have to leave here tonight. There are wolves in this mountain range, so we can't stay in the mountains for too long. It was only because there were so many people going up the mountain that we dared to rest here last night."

Zhou Yanfeng asked Yin Jiaming and Zhang Cailiang: "What's the matter? Comrade Yin and Comrade Zhang are planning to go down the mountain with us?"

Zhang Cailiang was stunned and wanted to speak again.

Yin Jiaming spoke first: "We have this plan. Come down the mountain and say hello to us."

"If we complete our survey mission today, let's go down the mountain together."

Next, the herb-collecting team dispersed to collect medicinal herbs, and Yin Jiaming took Zhang Cailiang to climb the hill to conduct geological surveys.

The herb-collecting team was in no hurry to go down the mountain. Cheers came from the valley, as if they had collected a lot of herbs. This made Yin Jiaming and Zhang Cailiang, who had found the stone gate behind the yam vine, very anxious.

Zhang Cailiang became more and more impatient, looking at the people scattered around the valley collecting medicinal herbs with a displeased look.

"Keep calm, Zhou Zhiqing said he won't stay here overnight."

Yin Jiaming patted Zhang Cailiang's arm and said, "They are going to open fire at noon, and we can still go and get some food."

If it were any other season, you could pick wild fruits in the mountains.

There is nothing in the mountains at this moment.

There are fish in the small lake in the valley, but Zhang Cailiang and Yin Jiaming don't know how to swim.

Zhang Cailiang was so hungry that he could only endure it for the time being.

What made him and Yin Jiaming most uncomfortable was that the herb-picking team only had some dry food at noon and didn't even cook, leaving them with no chance to ask for food.

They were afraid that if they pried the stone gate they would attract the attention of the herb-collecting team, so they could only continue to endure on an empty stomach.

They finally waited until sunset and heard shouting and whistling coming from the valley. Tang Yuanliang and Zhou Yanfeng called on the herb-picking team to gather and go down the mountain. Yin Jiaming and Zhang Cailiang finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Almost immediately after the herb-picking team left the valley, Zhao Xi finally brought the people they organized to the valley, facing the last ray of dawn that was about to set.

Previously, in the name of surveying, Yin Jiaming and Zhao Xi discovered that the stone door was very heavy and that professional tools were required to open the entrance to the treasure burial place.

The arrival of the contact person means that we can break through the stone door and get in soon.

Yin Jiaming and Zhang Cailiang were very excited.

Zhao Xi led his men to the small lake in the valley and made the sound of a cuckoo. Yin Jiaming and Zhang Cailiang immediately came down the hill to meet them.

As the two groups met, there was a rustling sound in the bushes.

The people who came with Zhao Xi and Yin Jiaming immediately became alert.

At this time, along with the rustling sound, a sound echoed in the valley.

"Comrade Yin and Comrade Zhang, are you there?"

"Don't be nervous. It's the herb-collecting team of Xiangyang Brigade. They were digging for herbs here before. I mentioned that I wanted to go down the mountain with them."

Yin Jiaming whispered something to the leader from the county town, and then signaled them to stay where they were.

He took Zhang Cailiang with him to send the man away.

"We are here!"

"Comrade Yin and Comrade Zhang, I'm sorry. We were so happy to have found so many medicinal herbs that we forgot you asked us to come down the mountain with you."

"There are wolves in this valley. I'm thinking of leaving you in the mountains halfway through. No, turn back quickly."

"The other herb-collecting teams are still waiting for us halfway."

It was undoubtedly the herb-collecting team of Xiangyang Brigade. Zhao Xi and the people from the county town all breathed a sigh of relief.

They were still waiting for Yin Jiaming and Zhang Cailiang to send their men away. As the howling of wolves came from the valley, they felt something black and hard pressing against their backs.

At the same time, Yin Jiaming took Zhang Cailiang and told Tang Yuanliang and Zhou Yanfeng that they would stay in the mountains to continue the survey.

Tang Yuanliang and Zhou Yanfeng suddenly attacked, smashing the hoe they were using to pick herbs at him.

Yin Jiaming and Zhang Cailiang wanted to retreat, but were stopped by He Ting and Tao Wenxing who came out of the bushes.

"you……"

Realizing that he was being plotted against, Yin Jiaming gave a warning.

The sound of wolves howling echoed in the valley.

He Ting reminded: "Yin Jiaming, don't waste your energy. The people you asked Zhao Xi to call from the county town have been captured by comrades from the provincial public security organs who are ambushed in the valley."

"Thank you for bringing the people here and catching them all in one fell swoop."

No matter how Yin Jiaming and Zhang Cailiang struggled, they were helpless in the face of absolute strength and could only surrender.

After controlling the man, Tao Wenxing immediately took out handcuffs and handcuffed him.

Zhou Yanfeng and Tang Yuanliang nimbly took out ropes from the backpack and helped He Ting and the others tie up the man.

Yin Jiaming couldn't believe that he thought he was the one who set the plan, but he fell into someone else's trap.

He returned to his hometown as a geologist. How did the flaw in his true identity come to light?

After Tao Wenxing went to report to the comrades of the operation working group, he was guarded by He Ting and others.

"He Ting, you are Lu Baiwei's husband."

Unwilling to give up, Yin Jiaming said, "You must love her very much, right?"

They have fallen into the hands of the provincial police, but they are still acting stubbornly.

He Ting sneered: "Yin Jiaming, what do you want to say?"

"You love Lu Baiwei very much. It's fine if Lu Jiaojiao falls into my hands. Lu Jianguo is Lu Baiwei's biological father. You won't stand by and watch her die, right?"

Yin Jiaming grinned: "You won't watch your wife's father starve to death in the mountains, will you?"
