Wang Qingliu immediately looked at her and said angrily, "What are you laughing at? I'm serious. Besides, I've already quit my job as a police officer. From now on, I'll follow Brother Gu."
Zhang Meng looked at him in surprise, "Are you serious?"
Wang Qingliu nodded. "Of course it's true. I called yesterday and told them that I would no longer be a police officer."
The car was quiet for a while. Wang Qingliu spoke again, "Actually, I've always wanted to learn the skills of exorcising ghosts from you guys."
Zhang Meng looked at him in surprise. "Although your elder brother Gu said he wanted to take you as his apprentice, I don't know if he has changed his mind now."
Wang Qingliu said fearlessly, "That doesn't matter. Brother Gu will listen to you. As long as you speak well of me in front of him, he will definitely be willing to accept me as his apprentice."
As the two were talking, the car stopped at the gate of the military area.
Zhang Meng greeted the soldier guarding the gate, and the car quickly and slowly entered the military area.
As the car drove to the downstairs of the family quarters, a military green figure caught the eye of Zhang Meng in the car.
Gu Mingtai, who had been standing upstairs for almost half an hour, saw a car coming from the front and his sharp eyes narrowed slightly.
A few minutes later, the car stopped in front of him.
"Gu Mingtai." Zhang Meng got out of the car and immediately shouted to the man standing in front of her.
Hearing the familiar voice, a faint smile appeared on Gu Mingtai's tense handsome face. He strode over and held her hand.
He was about to open his mouth to ask when suddenly a voice spoke before him, calling out, "Brother Gu."
"Why are you still here? Hasn't the case been solved?" Gu Mingtai asked him with a cold expression.
Wang Qingliu, who was smiling, froze when he heard the tone of his question. He lowered his head a little aggrievedly, "Brother Gu, didn't you say you wanted to take me as your apprentice? I've already quit my job in public security, and I'll follow you from now on."
Gu Mingtai looked at him silently, "Who said I want to take you as my apprentice?"
Wang Qingliu's expression became anxious, and he immediately pointed towards Zhang Meng. "Zhang Meng said that. I heard her say that myself when I collected the snake belt."
Gu Mingtai slowly glanced towards Zhang Meng.
Zhang Meng immediately smiled at him, "I think I said that!"
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Wang Qingliu quickly winked at Zhang Meng.
Zhang Meng bit her lip and glared at him before slowly moving towards Gu Mingtai and whispering, "Gu Mingtai, haven't you always wanted to take him in as your apprentice? Since he's really interested, why don't we give him a try?"
Seeing this, Wang Qingliu quickly agreed, "Yes, accept me. I will study hard and will not be lazy. If I am lazy, you can beat me, any way you want."
Listening to the two of them talking in unison, Gu Mingtai glanced at Wang Qingliu with a cold gaze, "Do you really want to be my apprentice?"
Wang Qingliu was delighted to see him talking to him, and nodded vigorously, "Yes, yes, I'm very willing."
Gu Mingtai nodded. "Very good. Come to me on this hill at five tomorrow. I'll be waiting for you there. Remember, if you don't come by then, you will be kicked out of my candidate pool forever."
Wang Qingliu immediately said, "I've got it in mind. Don't worry, I'll be at the mountain on time at five o'clock tomorrow morning."
Gu Mingtai said "hmm". Wang Qingliu smiled foolishly, and after a few seconds, he suddenly felt a pair of eyes that seemed to want to eat him locked on him.
He looked around and saw Gu Mingtai sitting opposite him staring at him with a weird smile.
Gu Mingtai didn't know how many times he had gritted his teeth.
"Is there anything else?" Gu Mingtai asked, staring at him with a face as black as charcoal.
Wang Qingliu's eyes trembled with fear, and he shook his head vigorously, "No, it's okay."
Gu Mingtai's face turned even uglier. "If nothing's wrong, hurry up and leave!"
Wang Qingliu was so frightened that he took a few steps back and said quickly, "I, I'm leaving now, I'm leaving now."
Looking at the car with its wheels twisting and turning, Zhang Meng glared at the culprit, Gu Mingtai, in annoyance.
Gu Mingtai walked up to her seriously and took her hand, "Let's go, let's go upstairs, grandma and the others are still waiting for us at home."
As soon as they got home, Grandma Zhang handed them a telegram.
Zhang Meng glanced at the telegram and a smile lit up her face. "Gu Mingtai, it's from the capital. I think they're getting some results on the matter we asked them to do."
Although she now has the medicinal herbs, it is her first time to refine them. She is really worried that the good medicinal herbs she got from the ghost market will be ruined by her.
That's why she hasn't started practicing yet.
"Open it and take a look. If it is, we will find some time to go there." Gu Mingtai said.
Zhang Meng nodded and immediately folded the telegram in her hand. Since the Liao family received her telegram, they immediately arranged for people to go down and look for it. They have found a lot of things now, but the price still needs to be negotiated by them.
"They said we should go over and negotiate the price." Zhang Meng looked at Gu Mingtai.
"Is it urgent?" Gu Mingtai asked with a frown.
Zhang Meng saw his hesitation and immediately asked, "What's wrong?"
Soon, she remembered that she had been called over by Chief Shu's guard this morning. "Hey, Chief Shu, did you come over because he has another case waiting for you to solve?"
Gu Mingtai glanced at her and chuckled softly, "It seems you really can't hide anything from your eyes. There was indeed a case a few days ago. A large pit suddenly appeared in a small town in the south in the middle of the night. The villagers of several nearby villages seemed to have disappeared overnight."
After hearing this, Zhang Meng's expression turned serious. "How could this happen? Did anyone from above go into the pit to take a look?"
Gu Mingtai nodded. "We sent people there, but none of them came back alive. That's why the higher-ups thought this was a big trap and wanted to send us, capable people, to investigate."
"Are you anxious?" Zhang Meng asked.
Gu Mingtai's face darkened. "The order from over there is very urgent. We may have to go there in the next two days."
Zhang Meng immediately said, "Then I'll go with you to take a look."
Gu Mingtai frowned, "None of us know how dangerous that place is."
Zhang Meng's eyes flashed with stubbornness, "I want to go see that place."
Just as the couple was discussing whether to go or not, they suddenly felt the temperature around them drop a lot.
"What's going on? Why is it so cold? Is it snowing outside?" Grandma Zhang hurried out of the room wearing a cotton coat.
