But what caught Zhang Meng's attention most was that he was holding a pheasant that had just died.
"Where did this pheasant come from?" Zhang Meng asked immediately.
"Boss, sister-in-law, we finally caught who released wild boars and deer in front of your house." The little soldier grinned and laughed happily.
Zhang Meng's face lit up with joy and she glanced towards Gu Mingtai.
Gu Mingtai's eyes lit up and he urged the young soldier, "Stop talking so much nonsense and tell me who it is."
The little warrior grinned and raised one hand. On his palm was a green vine.
"Vines!" Zhang Meng said in surprise when she saw what he was holding in his hand.
The young soldier continued smiling, "Yes, sister-in-law, this is it. We just saw it was this thing that put the pheasant at your doorstep. Fortunately, I was quick-eyed and stepped forward to catch it, but I didn't catch it intact. This is a small piece of the vine that broke off, and the rest let it escape."
Zhang Meng took the vine and felt that it looked familiar.
"I understand. Go and tell Xiaopang that he doesn't need to stay here anymore. You two can go back to the team." Gu Mingtai suddenly said.
When the young soldier heard that he could go back to the team, the smile on his face became even brighter. God knows how bored they were squatting here.
After receiving the order, the young soldier immediately turned around and called his comrades who were still hiding in the basket to leave.
Zhang Meng held the vine in her hand and frowned, "Gu Mingtai, does this vine look familiar to you?"
Gu Mingtai squinted his eyes and took a look. "It's the vines in the cave on the mountain."
After he reminded her, Zhang Meng immediately remembered that this vine was indeed only found in that cave.
Holding the vine tightly in her hand, Zhang Meng's curiosity grew stronger and stronger. She looked up at the man beside her and said, "Gu Mingtai, what is going on? How did the vines in the cave extend to our doorstep? They also brought us wild boars, deer, and now pheasants. This is so strange."
Gu Mingtai took her hand, curled his lips and smiled, "Since you are so curious, let's go up the mountain and find out the result."
As soon as he finished speaking, he took her hand and walked downstairs.
Zhang Meng watched them walk further and further away from home and said, "We really have to go!"
Gu Mingtai turned around and glanced at her. "Aren't you curious about why this vine gave us these things? Instead of guessing at home, why not go and find out? This way it will be more practical."
The two men walked up the mountain confidently and came to the entrance of the cave they had been to last time, where two groups of soldiers were standing.
Ever since the last incident here, the higher-ups have sent two groups of elite soldiers to guard here.
When the soldier guarding here saw that it was the couple, he immediately saluted them.
Gu Mingtai returned the military salute expressionlessly and explained their intention to come in.
"This..." The officer guarding the cave looked embarrassed.
Seeing this, Zhang Meng thought that he was not allowed to enter, so she immediately secretly pulled Gu Mingtai's arm and said, "Gu Mingtai, if you can't go in, let's not make things difficult for him. Just don't go in."
As soon as she finished speaking, the embarrassed officer looked at her, his eyes emitting a hint of blazing admiration, "Comrade Zhang?"
Zhang Meng was stunned and nodded awkwardly.
The male officer immediately said happily, "If Comrade Zhang wants to go in, then of course you can go in. The only thing is, can Comrade Zhang sign your name for us before you go in?"
Zhang Meng suppressed her smile, secretly glanced at her man beside her whose face had turned black, and quickly responded to the young officer, "Okay, no problem. Then, may I ask, can we go in now?"
The young officer immediately and enthusiastically rode the two young people to the entrance of the cave before stopping.
After entering, Zhang Meng smiled and gently pulled the corner of the man's clothes beside her, "Are you angry?"
Gu Mingtai said with a gloomy face, "I'm not angry. I just feel that my wife's name is more powerful than my official title as Captain Gu, so I feel a little jealous."
Zhang Meng shone the flashlight on his face for a moment, confirming that the man was joking. Then, she breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Don't talk about this anymore. It makes me sick every time I talk about it. Who is it that actually spreads rumors about me in the military district like I'm a god? If the Red Guards outside knew about this, they would definitely arrest me."
