Chapter 587 I Will Tell You Everything I Know
Jinshi couldn't bear to listen any longer. She didn't want to startle the snake, but these two scoundrels dared to plot against Yuanbao and even planned to sell him to such a filthy place.Unforgivable..."Zong Yu Guang just hearing it made his scalp tingle."
He used to think Li Gou was just a low-level hoodlum, but he never expected him to be capable of such cruelty.
"When you're removing the traps, be extra careful. Li Gou has lost his humanity and can think of any kind of trick or sabotage. He's in the shadows while you're out in the open. Be sure to stay vigilant."
"Don't worry, he can't hurt me in the mountains."
"I'll find the person and bring them to you. Wait for me."
Just as Zongyu turned to leave, he stopped at the door and thought of something. He turned back around.
"For the next few days, you shouldn't go out. Li Gou is vengeful and will definitely seek revenge on you."
Fang Jinshi nodded, sneering inwardly.
Zongyu didn't mention it, and she almost forgot this possibility.
"Well, I'm not going out."
Li Gou better have the guts to come looking for her, as soon as he does, I'll make sure he never comes back.
When Zong Yu took people out to remove the traps, Fang Jinshu also led her younger sister and niece to organize all the seeds that were going to be stolen.
All the seeds, Fang Jinshi soaked in Lingquan water overnight.
To save these seeds, she for the first time drained all the water from the small spring.
She curiously gazed at the bottom of the spirit spring, like a clean bowl's bottom, without even a crack. She wondered how this spirit water came out.
She's been busy lately and hasn't had time to notice any changes in her space.
While Fang Jinxiu was constantly putting things into the spatial pocket, the space itself was quietly changing every day.
For example, places that were previously indistinct and hazy gradually became brighter.
The area of the grassland is also increasing a little bit.
Above the spring, a tiny green water droplet appeared at some point, hanging in mid-air. It was only the size of a mung bean; if you didn't look up closely, you wouldn't easily notice it.
At this moment, Fang Jinshi's heart and eyes were filled with the desire to catch Li Gou, that beast.
It's not just about giving the Sun family an explanation, but also about reassuring the villagers.
If they all panicked, who would be able to keep their cool and work
It's a good thing all that spring water wasn't wasted, most of the seeds survived and can be replanted. As long as they are carefully tended to, we should be able to harvest them before the snow falls. Worst case scenario, we just add a bit more spring water to speed up their growth.
Zongyu spent three days working on it, and managed to remove several of the traps.
But they found that Li Gou was still setting up new traps, he was slippery like a mud loach, impossible to catch.
Every time the honorable ones made a move, Li Gou seemed to anticipate their actions and always managed to evade them successfully.
Fang Jinshi suspected that someone among the group of people who came to work in the mountains was constantly giving Li Goutong information.
That day, Zong Yu and the others finished their meal and sat with the workers who came to help. They purposely said something to the people next to them.
"Today we'll go back to the forest to the east and look for Li Gou's tracks. We're sure to find them."
After finishing his words, Zongyu got up and left.
Fang Jinshi had been observing from the shadows. If any of these people were indeed relaying messages to Li Gou, he would definitely pay close attention to Zong Yu's every word and deed.
Unexpectedly, as Zong Yu just got up and left, someone immediately followed him out stealthily.
Fang Jinshu immediately called upon Zhao Yi and Zhao Er, successfully cornering the man at the foot of the mountain.
When she saw the man, she was astonished.
"Uncle Three"
How could it be Elder Three
"Uncle Three, why are you sneaking around after Ayou"
Fang Jinxiu couldn't quite understand. After Zong Lao San went up the mountain, he remained fairly docile. Although he was a bit lazy with his work, he never did anything out of line and seemed content with the status quo.
He wasn't close to Li, so why would he help Li Gou deliver the message
"Grand Elder San, you scared me! Jin, Jinxiu, why are you getting two people to arrest me"
"I, I just wanted to take this time during my lunch break to go down the mountain and see how your aunt is doing at home."
"She wasn't having an easy pregnancy, she was throwing up every day at home. She threw up everything she ate. Her uncle wasn't intentionally being lazy."
After some thought, Fang Jinxiu still felt that it was unlikely that Zong Lao San had tipped off Li Gou.
She waved her hand, telling Zhao Yī and Zhao r to let the people go. She didn't expect that even this wouldn't help find the traitor.
"Uncle Three, you go. Remember to come back on time for work."
Zong Lao nodded repeatedly, Fang Jinshui was about to take Zhao Yi and Zhao Er out to look again. She didn't believe that the person wasn't hooked, there must be something important information she had missed.
Suddenly, Elder Zong San called out to her again.
"Respected daughter-in-law," Fang Jinshu was astonished and turned back.
"Does Uncle Three have anything else"
"Elder Three felt a little embarrassed, rubbing his hands and smiling, “I know you’re good at medicine, and your family has lots of herbs. Could you take a look and see if you can make a prescription for Auntie Three to stop vomiting”
"This won't do, constantly throwing up like this. I can't keep anything down."
Fang Jinshu didn't have time to deal with such trivial matters. She and the third wife had no real relationship to begin with.
"Morning sickness can't be completely stopped, no matter what medicine you take."
"Elder Zong, you're looking for someone, aren't you"
Fang Jinshu just turned around, then abruptly turned back.
"Uncle Three, do you know who I'm looking for"
Uncle Three mumbled back, “Is it your third aunt’s medicine, isn’t it”
"Well, if you could get me two more chickens to take back and help her recuperate, I'd tell you everything I know."eone else out of a moment of foolishness.""Actually, my real name is not Zong Bai. I'm a student surnamed Wu, called Wu Bai. I am also one of the students participating in this imperial examination."B...
