Seeing that the guy was still alive and well, Zhang Meng finally breathed a sigh of relief and said happily for him, "Congratulations."
Di Zhi smiled gratefully, "Actually, I want to thank you. If it weren't for your Concentrating Spirit Pill, I probably wouldn't be able to escape the thunder today."
Zhang Meng waved her hands embarrassedly, "Don't be so polite, that's what I promised you. Now that I've given it to you, I can feel at ease."
She had always owed this guy some pills, so every time she saw him, she felt a little uneasy.
Seeing Di Zhi talking to a woman for such a long time, Ruyi's face turned a little ugly. She immediately hugged Di Zhi tightly and said, "You are still very weak now. Don't talk to anyone. I will take you back and make delicious soup for you every day."
As soon as she finished speaking, Ruyi, who looked like a little woman, easily picked up Dizhi with her hands and strode out of the mountain temple.
After finishing the business with Di Zhi, the couple did not stay in the mountain temple for long and quickly drove back to the capital.
As the couple arrived outside the capital, Zhang Meng, feeling a bit bored, opened the car window and glanced at the sky in the direction of the capital. The sight of the sky immediately made her frown.
"Gu Mingtai, look, there's a lot of black air in the sky above the capital. What's going on?"
"Some evil thing must have entered the capital." Gu Mingtai looked in the direction she pointed and said with a serious face.
Zhang Meng was silent for a moment when she saw this, and then she slowly spoke, "It seems that the capital city is really becoming increasingly unstable."
The military vehicle quickly drove into the streets of the capital and soon returned to the Gu family's courtyard.
As soon as the couple got out of the car, Xiao Tao, who was guarding the door, ran up and said, "Sister, brother-in-law, there are guests inside. Very powerful guests. There are many soldiers guarding them."
Zhang Meng looked up at the two soldiers guarding the door, and had a vague idea of the identity of the person inside.
"I understand. Go play with Xiaohu and the others." Zhang Meng touched his head and said.
Xiao Tao nodded and quickly ran to the alley next door to play with his friends.
Zhang Meng took a look inside and whispered to the man beside her, "Gu Mingtai, it's Elder Dong who's here. I wonder what kind of problems he's going to give us. We have to be careful."
Gu Mingtai walked over to her, took her hand, looked at her and said, "If Mr. Dong assigns us a task, do we have the right to refuse?"
When Zhang Meng heard his question, she was stunned, then lowered her head in disappointment. In the end, the result was that they really couldn't refuse.
When the young couple came in, Old Dong was sitting in the yard with Monk Jingchen drinking tea.
"You're back! It's just right that you're back. Master Dong has been waiting for you two for a while. Come and sit down." Monk Jingchen, who had his back to them, suddenly said this.
Mr. Dong, who was drinking tea, was stunned and immediately looked towards the door. Sure enough, he saw the young couple Zhang Meng and Gu Mingtai coming in.
Elder Dong immediately made an admiring gesture towards Monk Jingchen, "Master Jingchen, you truly live up to your reputation. Old Dong, I truly admire you."
Monk Jingchen smiled faintly and waved his hand, saying, "This is nothing."
Just then, Zhang Meng and Gu Mingtai also walked up to them.
The young couple greeted Mr. Dong in unison.
Elder Dong smiled and pointed to the two empty seats next to him and said, "Comrade Zhang, Comrade Gu, please sit down and have a cup of tea first."
The young couple looked at each other, and finally sat down as he instructed.
Before he even had his tea, the great man began to talk.
"The capital has been very unstable recently. The person above is worried that if things continue like this, bad rumors will spread, which will be detrimental to our newly unified China." When talking about national affairs, Old Dong looked worried.
The young couple listened attentively but did not speak.
After finishing his words, Mr. Dong waited for a moment, and before the young couple could interrupt, he coughed lightly, his face full of embarrassment, and then continued, "I know you two are capable, but I wonder if I can leave the safety of the capital to you?"
"Leave it to us? That won't work. We don't have any special abilities. Mr. Dong, how about this? You should hand this important task over to someone else. My husband and I can just assist from the side."
Zhang Meng immediately spoke up to persuade him. Elder Dong waved his hand, interrupting Zhang Meng. "Comrade Zhang, there's no need to be so modest. I have complete confidence in your abilities. It's settled. Strange things have been happening frequently in the capital lately, and I've been suppressing them to avoid causing panic. So, you must handle these matters as quickly as possible. Do you understand?"
After saying this, Elder Dong suddenly stood up and said anxiously, "Oh, I forgot that an old subordinate will be visiting me at one o'clock. I can't stay here any longer. You can just take care of it. If there is anything you can't solve, just come back and report to me."
As soon as he finished speaking, Mr. Dong turned around and left the Gu family courtyard in a hurry.
Zhang Meng stood behind him and called out several times, but he acted as if he couldn't hear her and just strode away.
"Oh, that's not right. It's nine in the morning. It's still several hours before one in the afternoon."
Zhang Meng realized it later and discovered the loophole in what Mr. Dong said.
Unfortunately, when she remembered, it was too late. The other person had already left by car.
Not long after, a middle-aged man in a Zhongshan suit came to the door of the Gu family courtyard carrying a briefcase.
