It doesn't matter if your souls are scattered, as long as you die.

Upon hearing this, Wu Jiu understood, and his expression instantly turned grim, his worry evident.

Having partnered with Huang Gui for so many years, she always lived in the secluded town when she wasn't on missions, and had developed a deep affection for the people there.

She suddenly stood up. "It's too late for us to go back now, but I can contact Sun Tianxiang and ask her to tell Mu Qian to stop it. He also has a responsibility to stop it."

If he hadn't been loyal to Yun Li from the beginning and concealed her true identity, the Bureau of Extraordinary Affairs could have eliminated her as a danger long ago.

Wu Jiu hardened her heart. If she really killed the people in the secluded village, she would risk offending Mu Qian to strangle her.

"Huang Gui will protect me."

As he spoke, he took out seven or eight small bottles and jars from the bag he was carrying.

At this time, they were unaware that Yun Li had already reached a new deal with the Bureau of Extraordinary Affairs.

They were even less aware that she is now considered a national treasure.

When Huang Gui heard her mention contacting Sun Tianxiang urgently, he frowned. He knew that this method of emergency contact would severely damage her health.

I wanted to offer some advice, but then I thought of the people in the secluded villages and towns, and I kept quiet.

The only thing we can do is try to find some rare and precious herbs to replenish her vital energy.

……

Mu Qian, Sun Tianxiang, and Lin Shu have been extremely busy these past few days.

First, they secretly moved the books that Yun Li had left behind that could strengthen the country.

After transferring the books, they had to deal with the collusion between the Yangshu County Revolutionary Committee and the waste recycling station.

Unexpectedly, a casual investigation revealed a wide-ranging connection.

It even involved some important figures in Beijing.

Of course, with the intervention of the Bureau of Extraordinary Affairs, even the most important figures can be brought down.

In the dead of night in the wilderness, Sun Tianxiang sat on a rock with a gyrfalcon perched on her shoulder, surrounded by the incessant chirping of various birds.

She carefully analyzed the useful information from the chatter.

Suddenly, a hissing sound broke the chirping. She turned on her flashlight and found a king cobra standing upright just outside the flock of birds.

"Hiss..." Hurry and stop Yun Li from destroying the secluded village.

The birds were still chirping, and Sun Tianxiang couldn't quite hear what they were saying, but her intuition told her it must be something important.

He raised his hand and said in a slightly louder voice, "Stop talking, everyone."

It's rare for birds to encounter a human who can understand them, and they adore and respect them.

The words were spoken, and the sound ceased immediately.

The scene fell silent immediately.

Sun Tianxiang walked up to the king cobra and asked gently, "What did you just say? I didn't hear you clearly. Could you repeat it?"

"Hiss..." Hurry and stop Yun Li from destroying the secluded village.

Sun Tianxiang heard this clearly and was shocked. How did this snake know Yun Li and even come to find her?

Just as I was about to ask more questions, I saw the snake limp and fall down.

I crouched down to check; he wasn't dead, just unconscious.

This was a major event concerning Yun Li. She picked up the king cobra, held it in her arms, greeted the birds that had been giving her messages these past few days, and then quickly went to find Mu Qian with the king cobra in her arms.

At this moment, Mu Qian was in the office of the director of the Yangshu County Public Security Bureau, where he needed to answer the phone at any time to know the progress in Beijing.

Seeing Sun Tianxiang come in carrying a venomous snake, he wasn't too surprised, and simply asked in a calm voice, "Is there a new clue?"

Sun Tianxiang, who had been running all the way, was a little out of breath. She put the snake on the table and said, "Boss, this snake just came to deliver a message saying: 'Go and stop Yun Li from destroying the secluded village.' Then it fainted."

Upon hearing this, Mu Qian looked at the unconscious king cobra and fell into deep thought.

A secluded village or town?

He had heard of this place; it was said to be Huang Gui's territory.

Suddenly, his eyes widened and he looked at the map hanging on the office wall.

Their gaze precisely locked onto a hill not far from Yangshu County.

If I remember correctly, that place was the territory that Huang Gui applied for back then.

There lives a family that has been living in seclusion for hundreds of years, which is the location of the secluded village sheltered by Huang Gui.

"Tianxiang, what is the surname of the reclusive family protected by Huang Gui?"

Sun Tianxiang thought for a moment, then her eyes widened. "It seems to be Min."

Mu Qian had actually heard about it before, but he wasn't sure. Now that Sun Tianxiang had confirmed it, he felt that something was very wrong.

After a moment of silence, he said, "Let's pack up and go find Ali here."

He pointed to a point on the map.

Sun Tianxiang didn't ask any questions, and nodded heavily, "I'll go right away."

After she left, Mu Qian made three phone calls.

Two of the documents were instructions to others to take over the matter of the Revolutionary Committee and the spies colluding to smuggle cultural relics.

The other call was to Director Wei of the Bureau of Extraordinary Affairs, and it was about Yun Li.

Upon learning that Yun Li had reached Huang Gui's territory, Director Wei broke out in a cold sweat.

He knew best what Huang Gui was, and he also knew the surname of the tribe he protected.

He simply hadn't expected that this Min clan and the Min clan of Jiazigou were of the same bloodline.

Now we can only pray that Yun Li can distinguish right from wrong. Although they are of the same blood, they are not the same kind of people.

They also prayed that Mu Qian could stop Yun Li in time.

Ten minutes later, Mu Qian, Sun Tianxiang, and Lin Shu sped through the night.

Sun Tianxiang still doesn't quite understand what happened.

Lin Shu had no idea what was going on, but he didn't care whether he figured it out or not; he just needed to follow his boss.

Sun Tianxiang struggled to keep up with the two of them, asking as she ran, "Boss, what happened to Ali?"

Mu Qian frowned deeply, his pace unwavering. "The snake that sent you the message was driven by Wu Jiu."

Sun Tianxiang was astonished. "How did she know I was in that place?"

"Could she be nearby? If so, why doesn't she just come looking for us?"

Mu Qian: "I don't know how she knew you were in that place. I only know that it was a secret technique of her witch clan, and using it once would put a great strain on the body."

"I won't use it easily."

Sun Tianxiang's heart sank. The fact that she used it despite the immense burden meant that the matter was very urgent.

"Boss, you just asked about the surname of the clan that Huang Gui is protecting. Is it the one Ali wants to kill?"

"Um."

Sun Tianxiang felt uneasy thinking about her promise to Yun Li. "Boss, we're going to stop her now, but didn't we promise Ali that we wouldn't hinder her revenge?"

After listening to these few sentences of conversation, Lin Shu roughly understood what was going on.

The clan that Huang Gui protected is also the target of A Li's revenge.

Now they are there to stop her.

I didn't really want to go, and my pace slowed down without me even realizing it.

"We did make that agreement." Mu Qian's expression remained unchanged. Suddenly, he noticed that someone was missing from his side. He stopped and looked back, only to see Lin Shu standing there motionless.

Having been partners for so long, and given Lin Shu's naivety, how could he not guess what he was thinking?

Sun Tianxiang and Lin Shu shared the same thought: they didn't want to go, because going would mean becoming enemies with Ali.
