The witch school beauty had no scandals until she met me

Sandy ruins.

After a day and night of fighting, they finally evacuated safely outside the Qilin District.

Thanks to the efforts of Thunder Squad and Jiang Li, no one was killed, only some soldiers were accidentally injured during the retreat.

Of course, some members of the Thunder Squad were also injured.

The non-stop fighting for several days was basically a test of their willpower. Although the branches did not have strong attack power, the huge number of them still made them almost trapped in a tough battle.

Fortunately, Jiang Li joined the battle after coming out, otherwise the damage might have been even more serious.

"Madam, I'm here."

Three hours after the battle ended, Rufeng came to Jiang Li's command vehicle with a box in his hand, and no one knew what was inside.

Jiang Li nodded, then after tidying up her clothes, she sat on the bench in the car: "Tell me, what's going on."

"After the two savages led us into the central bush, we discovered that it was not what we imagined. There weren't even any mutant creatures inside."

"After passing through the grass, we came to a green meadow. There were more than a dozen tents on the meadow. The people living there were all wild people."

"They seem to be a tribe, and there's a lake in the middle of the grass. From what I've learned, there's a giant tree in that lake called the Waterwood. It seems that this plant is a deity worshipped by the savage tribe."

After the words fell, Jiang Li was silent for a moment.

That’s right, wood in water.

Mu Aotian had mentioned to him that the fruit of the water wood might be related to the potion-breaking agent.

It’s true, there really are water trees in the central jungle.

Thinking of this, Jiang Li asked, "What happened next? Why were you being chased by these branches?"

After hearing this, Rufeng placed the box on the table and said, "We stayed in the savage tribe for a few days, hoping to gather some information. Later, we discovered that these savages don't need to eat. Their only food is the water in the lake. With just a bowl of water, they can survive for several days."

"At that time, I felt that there must be a secret."

"Then I went to the lake. The trees in the water showed no hostility towards us, nor did they attack us. We drank the water from the lake, but it gave the savages energy, while it had no effect on us; it was just like drinking ordinary water."

"I discussed with the Thunder Team that day whether we should go into the lake to check it out."

"They all agreed, so as the strongest, I went down into the lake that night. Later... I saw the roots of the water tree at the bottom of the lake."

"Its roots are so huge that I even suspect the entire Qilin District is covered with them."

"In the middle of its roots, there are some shiny fruits."

"fruit?"

Hearing this, Jiang Li's eyes widened, "Where's the fruit?"

"Don't worry, Madam. I brought the fruit back. At that time, I thought that this trip should not be in vain, so I..."

Rufeng opened the box, and inside were four dark green fruits. "But after I took these fruits, the water wood rioted."

"Later, we were hunted down..."

After hearing this, Jiang Li nodded slightly, and then her expression began to show surprise: "I came to the Sand Ruins this time just to find this thing."

"Great."

"Go and give these fruits to Elder Chen for research now."

"Also, don't we have a wildling hostage? Let Elder Chen study him as well."

"Yes."

Looking at Jiang Li's expression, Rufeng knew that these fruits must be of great use, so he didn't waste any time. After saying hello to Jiang Li, he left the command vehicle directly.

Jiang Li breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, this trip was not in vain. Although there was a riot in the Qilin District, she at least got what she wanted.

Thinking of this, Jiang Li prepared to pick up her phone to report to several bosses on Lotus Island.

If possible, she is ready to go back.

But just when she sat down and hadn't dialed the number, her cell phone suddenly rang.

The unfamiliar number on it made her look slightly stunned, and then she answered the call.

"Hey?"

"........"

There was no sound from the other side, but a low gasp was heard.

"Hey?"

“........” There was still no sound from the other end.

Jiang Li immediately frowned, as if she suddenly realized something, but before she could continue speaking, a voice finally came from the other side.

"Are you... okay?"

When Jiang Li heard this familiar voice, she froze in place for a moment and couldn't speak for a long time.

For some reason, she suddenly felt like crying, but this crying was not out of longing, but anger.

"Why did you call me?"

"Can't I call you?"

"We are enemies now, and you are Longguo's biggest enemy. Such a call will cause others to misunderstand."

"What's the big deal... Can't I even call my wife?"

"We are no longer married."

"We have always been husband and wife. I still have our marriage certificate. Could it be that you are divorcing me?"

After the words fell, Jiang Li was stunned.

They...seem to be really not divorced.

Su Mushan's departure was so sudden that they didn't even have time to divorce.

But the lack of news for so many years and his identity made Jiang Li feel that they had been separated for a long time.

In legal terms, a couple who have been separated for more than ten years should no longer be considered husband and wife.

Thinking of this, Jiang Li snorted and said, "What's your purpose in calling me? Let me tell you, this is my work number. Any call I make is monitored."

A calm voice came from the other end: "It's because someone is monitoring it that I'm calling you, Xiaoli."

"You know what? I miss you very much. I want to see you every day."

"However, my great invention has not yet benefited the whole world, so we cannot meet now. One day, when I control the entire world, I will go to Dragon Country to meet you openly."

"Su Mushan, why are you so stubborn? Do you know how much disaster you have brought to the world? You know that those who were infected by the drug have lost their minds. This is murder, pure and simple murder!"

After hearing this, Jiang Li could no longer control her anger, and she yelled loudly at the person on the other end of the phone.

But after hearing this, the other party suddenly laughed: "Xiao Li, you don't understand. After I carry this matter forward, you will understand my true good intentions."

"Of course, I'm not calling you today just to communicate with you, but to inform you of something..."
