Chapter 172 The Major General Arrives



How many cars do you actually have in your storage space?

"Several thousand vehicles, I suppose," Zuo Ling replied casually.

Pei Nansheng: "..."

He really didn't expect Zuo Ling to be so good at collecting scraps.

On the day the ice froze, the cars were frozen solid. Zuo Ling picked and chose which cars to take, and most of them were fine.

Some can be easily repaired, while others can be disassembled and disposed of when the opportunity arises.

The days dragged on, but instead of cooling down, the midnight sun arrived.

The sun seemed to be frozen in place, hanging high in the sky.

I always thought that the polar day was better than the polar night, but after actually experiencing it, I found that I was confused and exhausted, even though the sunlight was still bright.

Fearing that her seedlings might also get confused, Zuo Ling found a black cloth and, following the normal schedule, covered it for 8 hours and uncovered it after 16 hours.

Under her careful care, the vegetable seedlings are growing well.

Tomatoes, cucumbers, and green and red peppers are all bearing fruit, red, yellow, and green, hanging on the branches, looking very tempting.

Pei Nansheng and Xiao Hao have no shortage of food and drink, and they both like to take a few strolls around the small vegetable garden every day.

The two little paws were mischievous and always liked to cause trouble. Zuo Ling lost her temper and chased them for miles with a big stick, finally making them behave a little.

Thinking of He Guiqi, Zuo Ling felt it was a pity. If He Guiqi were here, he would definitely be so tempted that he would pick the fruit and stuff it into his mouth.

There was a commotion outside the door, with footsteps all around.

Pei Nansheng and Zuo Ling's expressions changed, and Xiao Hao quickly went back to his room to get his weapon.

On a snowy night, the dog's ears stood up, its shoulders and neck tensed, its tongue lolling out, revealing its teeth, as it lunged forward.

The waterfall was the only one in the family that was there to make up the numbers. It jumped onto Zuo Ling's shoulder, but Zuo Ling was afraid it might be in danger, so she put it down.

A knocking sound came from the door, knock knock knock, knock knock.

Is anyone there?

Pei Nansheng and Zuo Ling remained silent.

The person outside peeked through the crack in the door and immediately spotted Zuo Ling. "There's someone here, a woman. Why aren't you saying anything?"

An older voice rang out: "Step back."

Those who are trying to pry open the door, step back as ordered.

The elder knocked twice on the door and said gently, "Young lady, we are not bad people and mean no harm."

Zuo Ling and Pei Nansheng remained silent. They were hidden deep in the mountains, with no acquaintances and no interest in making friends.

The elder smiled and asked, "Young lady, do you know He Guiqi? He's here too."

Someone pushed He Guiqi forward, and He Guiqi stumbled as if he had been kicked.

Zuo Ling opened the door, and there was a group of soldiers standing outside, more than a dozen of them, led by a middle-aged man with a square face.

A military truck and an off-road jeep were parked on the riverbank in the distance, with three armed soldiers guarding the area.

The shoulder insignia of a middle-aged man, a golden pine branch and a star... Major General?

When the major general arrived, Zuo Ling felt no honor at all. She suspected that he was just a night owl and that it couldn't be anything good!

Xiao Hao, who had come out with a gun, stood at the doorway, one foot in and one foot out. His older brother, who had visited the house last time, was also there. It didn't look like a fight was about to break out. He turned around and ran back into the house, quickly tidying up things that shouldn't be there.

The major general had a sharp eye; the little boy was holding... a sniper rifle! His eyelids twitched.

He Guiqi turned to the side, his eyes darting away, not daring to look at Zuo Ling.

The major general's gaze swept between He Guiqi and Zuo Ling, and he made a decision:

"It seems we haven't come to the wrong place. The sister He Guiqi was talking about, you must be the one."
