Rebirth: Mr. Fu will not cancel the engagement this time

Chapter 24 Gu Jinhe Can't Find the Way Back

Fu Huaiyuan, Qin Xu and the Xie family divided into three groups and started searching from the same road that Gu Jinhe left.

It's probably past lunch time now.

Gu Jinhe touched his hungry stomach. The Xie family’s breakfast was very simple, a plate of dumplings, only eight of them, small and reserved. They could have some morning tea and snacks to fill their stomachs before lunch.

But where could she find breakfast snacks in this desolate mountain area?

When we climbed up the stairs, my cousin's wife said that the lunch at Canaan Temple tasted good. Although it was all vegetarian, it had a rich taste and was not bland.

Originally Gu Jinhe was looking forward to it, but now it seems that he can’t eat it.

Canaan Temple only provides lunch once a day, and the cafeteria closes at that time.

Feeling cold and hungry, Gu Jinhe picked up a leaf out of boredom to make a boat, and began to count the ants slowly crawling on the ground.

"One, two, three..."

After finding the next few forks in the road, my cousin's wife was so anxious that her face turned pale. If something happened to Gu Jinhe, she couldn't imagine what the consequences would be.

Qin Xu comforted her that Gu Jinhe was just lost and nothing would happen. Fu Huaiyuan on the side suggested that it would be better not to make this matter public to avoid any unexpected risks.

Everyone understood what he meant.

The disappearance of the eldest daughter of the Gu family in Canaan Temple would definitely attract attention from the outside world if someone came to look for her privately.

If someone really finds Gu Jinhe, no one would know whether this person really wants to find Gu Jinhe or has some bad intentions.

Therefore, it is safest to spread this matter in a small area and not let too many people know about it.

After all, for people of their status, kidnapping and extortion are not uncommon.

Xu Cheng was holding Gu Jinhe's cell phone in his hand. At this time, he, Xie Hengzhi, Shuhua and Shumo were in a guest room. First of all, Shuhua and Shumo were still little girls, and no one was assured of entrusting such a task as finding someone to them. And Xie Hengzhi was still a child, which made people even more worried.

Xu Cheng was concerned about what Gu Jinhe had entrusted him with, although he was worried about Gu Jinhe's safety.

But there are already many people outside looking for Gu Jinhe, and he promised Gu Jinhe that he would protect Xie Hengzhi's safety.

So even if he wanted to go out and find someone now, he couldn't leave Xie Hengzhi behind.

However, Xu Cheng still sent out the five people who were transferred to protect Xie Hengzhi.

Gu Feiwan learned about Gu Jinhe's disappearance after meeting his friend who had agreed to meet at Canaan Temple.

She rolled her eyes and looked around on the road, pretending that she was also looking for someone, but in fact she had already told her girlfriends about it.

The more she concealed Gu Jinhe's affairs, the more she wanted more people to know.

After counting the 30th ant in the woods, I still didn't see a single person.

Gu Jinhe moved her numb feet and put the boat in her hand aside. She stood up and moved, looked around, and stepped onto a road with less fallen leaves.

After walking for about half an hour, looking at the rocks, trees and bushes, Gu Jinhe gradually lost hope that he could get out.

Why didn’t I notice before that she had a problem with getting lost?

"Are you sure it's buried here?"

"Of course it's here. I marked it. Look at the tree root. I drew a cross on it!"

Just when Gu Jinhe was looking for a clean place to sit down and rest, he suddenly heard voices coming from not far away.

From the sound of the voices, it sounded like there were two people. The first person who spoke was a middle-aged man, and the last person who spoke was a young man.

At first, Gu Jinhe felt relieved. After being lost for nearly two or three hours, he finally met someone. He thought he could finally ask for directions and get out.

But Gu Jinhe listened to what the two said and did not act rashly. Many of the trees here are hundreds of years old, so they can still block one person.

Gu Jinhe stood under a big tree that could completely block her view, looking at two people squatting on the ground digging not far away. Judging from their expressions, they were so cautious. Could it be that they were here to dig for treasure?

Ganoderma lucidum? Ginseng?

He can't be a mushroom picker, right?

Along the way, Gu Jinhe didn't see any mushrooms or even a single sprout.

"Liu Da, look, we found the box!" the young man suddenly shouted excitedly.

The middle-aged man called Liu Da glared and scolded in a low voice: "Keep your voice down, don't attract anyone."

The young man looked around and said, "Don't worry. I chose to bury the things here because I found that no one would come here normally, so nothing will happen."

Liu Da was a cautious person, and he did not let down his guard because of the young man's words.

He kept an eye on the surroundings. While looking at the box that had been dug out, he said in a hoarse voice, "The Canaan Temple is not far from here. What if someone accidentally walks here and sees us?"

The young man didn't care. He dug the dirt off the box, touched the lock on the side of the box and said, "People go to Canaan Temple to burn incense and worship Buddha. Who would have nothing better to do than come here, unless they are blind and lost."

"······" Gu Jinhe felt helpless. He was lost and actually met two people of unknown origin who were dividing the loot.

"Rat, have you ever opened this box?" Liu Da narrowed his eyes and said to the young man.

Upon hearing this, the young man handed the box to Liu Da and said, "I know the rules of this business. When you gave me the box to keep, I hid it for you. Now that the situation is not so tense, it's better to take this thing out and sell it to avoid any more trouble."

Liu Da looked at the lock and found that there was indeed no sign of it having been opened. His expression eased a little and he smiled a little, saying, "Rat, I didn't make a mistake in choosing you. When the incident happened, there was no one I could trust except you. I gave this thing to you with the idea of ​​taking a gamble. Now it seems that you are worthy of my trust."

"Don't worry, I've already found a buyer for this thing. When the money arrives, we'll split it 20-80."

Hearing this, Shuzi said excitedly: "Thank you very much, Mr. Liu."

Gu Jinhe listened to the two people talking silently, thinking in his heart whether there had been any news reports about the loss or sale of cultural relics in his previous life during this period of time.

But after thinking about it, she realized that she had never been to Canaan Temple at this time in her previous life. All her attention was focused on studying, and she had no time to pay attention to news from the outside world.

At this moment, she felt a sudden sharp pain in her ankle. Gu Jinhe pursed her lips and lowered her head, and saw an emerald green snake as long as an arm and with a slender body swimming quickly.

Gu Jinhe looked at the two teeth marks on his ankle and could already feel the numbness spreading from the soles of his feet.

This snake is poisonous.

There were two people in front whose identities were unknown but who were obviously criminals, and the one behind was bitten by a poisonous snake.

As the day went on, Gu Jinhe didn't know what expression to use.

But the poison did not allow her to wait here. Gu Jinhe narrowed her eyes slightly as she looked at the two people squatting on the ground and not ready to leave for the time being.
