Zuo Zixuan saw Qiao Xinghua staring at his small military schoolbag and thought he wanted the "courage pill" too.

She took out another handful from her bag and stuffed it into Qiao Xinghua's hand.

Qiao Xinghua looked at the candy in his hand and was stunned for a long time before he came to his senses.

He handed the candy to Zuo Zixuan, "Xuanxuan, I don't need this."

"Keep it in your pocket and take it back for Qingyu to eat.

Just take it easy, don’t eat too much at one time, or it will damage your teeth.” Zuo Zixuan pushed the food back to him.

After Zuo Zixuan said that, Qiao Xinghua did not refuse and put the candy into his trouser pocket.

He Yi had already climbed to the top. He turned around and looked down, just in time to see Zuo Zixuan and Qiao Xinghua pushing candies to each other below.

Without caring about what was going on above, he immediately became jealous and shouted to the people below with a frown:

"Wife, what are you still dawdling about? Come up quickly..."

Zuo Zixuan climbed up the ladder, followed by Ning Rong, Zhang You, and finally Qiao Xinghua.

After He Yi pulled Zuo Zixuan up, he ignored Ning Rong behind him, and almost made Ning Rong's nose crooked with anger.

As soon as he climbed out of the passage, he started punching and kicking at He Yi's back.

Don't give me the chance, otherwise, I will repay you double for today's revenge.

Zuo Zixuan walked out of the passage and went straight towards the "devils" who were floating on the ground with their backs to them. He Yi couldn't stop him.

"Wife, wait a minute. Let's wait for Brother Xinghua to come up and leave together. He has a gun."

"Why use a butcher knife to kill a chicken? There's no need..."

Zuo Zixuan walked towards the "devils" with confidence, because from a distance, she had already seen the fishing line entangled in the "devils".

When Qiao Xinghua came out, only Zhang You, who was shivering, was left at the cave entrance. Zuo Zixuan and the others had already walked past.

He patted Zhang You on the shoulder and said, "It's okay. If you're scared, just take a courage pill. If you really can't do it, just go down and wait. We'll call you when we're done."

Without waiting for Zhang You's response, Qiao Xinghua ran towards Zuo Zixuan and the others.

Zhang You turned around and looked at the dark passage below. After thinking for a while, he took out a courage pill from his pocket, put it in his mouth, and ran after Qiao Xinghua.

Zuo Zixuan circled the scarecrow in Japanese army uniform twice and waved to Zhang You who was running slowly behind him.

"Xiaoyou, come and see the 'ghost' you mentioned."

Seeing Zuo Zixuan's relaxed look, Zhang You unconsciously quickened his pace.

"Shouldn't you treat us to this meal?" After Zhang You ran over, Zuo Zixuan nodded at the scarecrow in front of him wearing the Japanese army uniform.

Zhang You ran closer and saw clearly what it was. Then he put his heart, which had been hanging high, back into his stomach.

"Is this a prank by that bastard?

If this were a timid person, wouldn't he be scared to death? "

After saying that, he punched the scarecrow.

The fishing line hanging the scarecrow must have rotted due to the long time. It could not withstand Zhang You's punch and fell to the ground with a bang, breaking into pieces.

Zhang You looked at the scarecrow scattered on the ground, and with a playful smile, he pulled out a black thing wrapped in the scarecrow's arm, shook it and said:

"That bastard who made the scarecrow even used wood to make the frame of the scarecrow. Could it be that he wants to treat these scarecrows as living people?"

Zuo Zixuan, who was squatting on the ground to check, said leisurely: "Xiao You, the thing in your hand is a real dead person's bone."

Zhang You opened his mouth wide, his expression frozen instantly. He looked at the black stick in his hand, then glanced at Zuo Zixuan, then closed his eyes and fainted.

He Yi held the man and gently placed him on the ground, rolling his eyes, "Look at this cowardly man, I don't know if he will ever be able to find a wife."

Zuo Zixuan was studying the scattered scarecrows on the ground and had no time to care about Zhang You.

Ning Rong went to check on him, and it turned out that there was nothing serious, he just fainted from fright, and he would be fine after lying down for a while.

In a short while, Zuo Zixuan had taken apart all the scattered scarecrows that had fallen to the ground, picked out the bones inside and put them back together.

During the process of dismantling the scarecrow, a piece of talisman paper folded into a heart shape was found on the scarecrow's chest.

"Judging from the skeleton, the deceased should be a male about 1.68 meters tall.

Judging from the gunshot wounds on his tibia and shoulder blade, this man might have been a soldier before he died.

But whether they are our own soldiers or the enemy's soldiers is debatable."

Zuo Zixuan glanced at the Japanese uniform that she had cut open with her dagger, and said to He Yi:

“He Yi, Brother Xinghua.

Can you guys look through that pile of rags and see if there's any useful information?"

He Yi and Qiao Xinghua squatted on the ground and searched together. The cloth was so rotten that it would tear if they used the slightest force.

After a lot of effort, I finally found a fragment that looked like an insurance card on a small piece of cloth.

"The painting on it looks like a ghost's drawing. I have no idea what it is." He Yi held the fragment and looked at it again and again in the light.

Seeing that they had been studying it for a long time without any clue, Zuo Zixuan walked over and took the cloth to have a look.

I feel ashamed at first sight...

“I recognize this ghost painting.

Muto Yasuhiro, from Osaka, private first class, 36th Division, 15th Squadron.

As soon as Zuo Zixuan finished speaking, Qiao Xinghua's hand had already reached behind his waist and grasped the pistol.

As a result, He Yi quietly passed through his back and held his hand tightly.

"Wife, do you recognize the words on here?" He Yi stood close to Qiao Xinghua, held down his hand holding the pistol, and asked with a forced smile.

Zuo Zixuan didn't look up and continued to search for useful information in the pile of rags on the ground. Naturally, he didn't notice the two people's little movements.

Zuo Zixuan didn't see it, but Ning Rong, who was standing opposite He Yi and the others, saw it clearly.

But she didn't say anything. Even she was surprised and became suspicious, let alone Qiao Xinghua.

"Is it strange? Don't you know that your father-in-law can speak four languages?

The languages ​​of these countries have more or less similarities in common, and they are easy to learn as long as you find the patterns.

So, I can speak the languages ​​of six countries..."

“Besides, the island language is easier to learn.

Their writing was originally learned from our Great Hua Country, but the pronunciation is different, and the meanings of many characters are similar to those of Hua Country. "

Zuo Zixuan had no idea that a group of people were suspecting she was a spy.

Qiao Xinghua loosened his hand that was holding the pistol and looked at He Yi to ask what was going on.

He Yi just nodded and said nothing.

He squatted beside Zuo Zixuan and carefully checked behind her ears to see if there were any signs of skin connection.

Under the tender white skin of the neck, light blue blood vessels run up along the smooth swan neck and disappear at the jaw.

He swallowed and reached out to touch her jaw. "Wife, what's that on your cheek? It's so black."

Zuo Zixuan tilted her neck, rubbed her hands, and looked at them. They were indeed black.

She said nonchalantly, "Maybe it was the lamp oil I got in the passage just now."

He Yi quietly hid the hand that had just held the torch.

He stood up and said, "Wife, Brother Xinghua and I will go to other places to check. You stay here and don't move. We will be back soon."

“Okay, go ahead.

I'll take apart a few more scarecrows to see if there are bones inside, too." Zuo Zixuan waved his hand indifferently.

Before leaving, He Yi gave Ning Rong a warning look, indicating that she should not talk nonsense.

Ning Rong rolled his eyes at him.

Of course she wouldn't talk nonsense...

Although she admired Zuo Zixuan very much, she was also a soldier. Between national justice and her friends, she had to choose national justice without a doubt.

"He Yi, what's going on with your wife?" Qiao Xinghua asked impatiently after the two of them walked away.

He Yi bit his lower lip. Although he felt that Zuo Zixuan had changed since her last hospitalization, he always believed that Zuo Zixuan was not a spy.

He told Qiao Xinghua Zuo Zixuan's true identity.

Qiao Xinghua didn't have a single doubt after hearing this. "I was wondering, how could your He family marry a peasant girl who is not suitable for you for no reason?

So that’s how it is…”

He Yi raised his eyebrows and retorted: "Why can't my He family marry a farm girl? Isn't my brother He Fan's fiancée a farm girl?"

Qiao Xinghua pursed his lips and said with a smile:

“He Yi, the ordinary people outside can’t see what’s going on, so you think I can’t see it either?

In these tense times, your He family is a big tree that attracts the wind. If you don't marry a decent farmer to act as a shield, I'm afraid someone will cut down your tree.

Your eldest sister married the son of the Minister of Defense, your uncle is the commander of the Kyoto Military Region, your father is the division commander of the Zedu Military Region, and you are a regimental commander, not to mention your father who has made many military achievements.

Is the tree in your He family not big enough?"

He Yi pursed his lips and said nothing.

He truly felt sorry for his brother, as he had arranged a marriage for him in the countryside due to family reasons.

Although the other party was a girl from the same village in my hometown, she had not even graduated from elementary school.

Although he looks honest and decent, he always looks timid and like he has never seen the world.

He Fan is a serious high school student. If the times did not allow it, he would definitely be a college student.

He Fan's health has been getting worse in recent years, so he has been delaying marriage.

According to He Fan, he didn't know how long his dying body could live, and he didn't want to harm the girl.

But the other party has never come to cancel the engagement. As the man, it is impossible for me to take the initiative to cancel the engagement when the girl has not made any mistakes.

He truly loved his weak and frail third brother, and he also knew that his family was going to sacrifice He Fan's marriage to pave the way for the entire clan in power.

Seeing that He Yi didn't look well, Qiao Xinghua didn't say anything else. The two of them walked around the factory and checked.

"He Yi, do you smell the scent of incense, candles, or paper?"

He Yi wrinkled his nose and sniffed around, "Don't be surprised, there really is."

"The smell seems to be coming from a corner we just passed by. Should we go back and take a look?"

The two followed the smell and walked back to a corner, where they confirmed that the smell was coming from.

Qiao Qinghua knocked on the wall. It was solid, with no space behind it.

He Yi stomped his feet lightly, and the ground echoed with a "dong dong dong" sound. He and Qiao Xinghua looked at each other, then quickly lay on the ground to peel off the layer of waterproof asphalt on top.

A tin cover, one and a half meters long and wide, appeared in front of him.
