Taming beasts starts with understanding bird language

Ma Zheng explained with a look of fear, "Boss, Tianji Pavilion is the largest government office in our Tiancang Kingdom, directly under the jurisdiction of the emperor, and has a very high status. Usually, the bigwigs in Kyoto don't dare to provoke people from Tianji Pavilion easily."

"Oh, so that's how it is!" Gu Chan only then knew.

This is equivalent to the department called "Jinyiwei" in ancient China.

This department is under the sole jurisdiction of the emperor, who can be said to be second only to the emperor.

Tianji Pavilion is equivalent to the Jinyiwei of Tiancang Kingdom. It is no wonder why everyone is afraid of this organization. Even children may not recognize these three words from childhood to adulthood, but they must know the three words Tianji Pavilion.

Just as Gu Chan understood the situation, the handsome man in black lying on the ground suddenly opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood, and his face instantly turned as pale as paper.

Gu Chan quickly squatted down and asked, "How are you? Are you okay?"

"My two little brothers, please make sure to hand over this secret letter... to... the Wuheng County government office..." The handsome guy answered with difficulty, then he reached into his arms, took out a secret letter stained with blood, and handed it to Gu Chan.

Gu Chan was embarrassed when she took the letter. "We are just children. Even if we take the letter, the county magistrate may not believe us!"

"It's okay. I have a token here. Show it to the guards of Tianji Pavilion. You can take it together." The handsome guy took out a round black token the size of a child's palm and handed it to Gu Chan.

Gu Chan took the token and looked at it carefully, and found that the token was not made of iron. The material was quite special, a bit like jet-black jade, and it should be worth a lot.

On the entire token, there is only a pitch-black word "天" engraved on the front, and nothing else.

Ma Zheng hurriedly whispered in Gu Chan's ear, "Boss, forget about him, let's go! We can't afford to offend the people from Tianji Pavilion. If you want to help him, be careful not to get yourself killed!"

“You little bastards, Tiancang Country is about to face danger, and instead of helping, you want to escape. You are not worthy of being the citizens of Tiancang Country.” The handsome guy glared at Ma Zheng and cursed him excitedly.

Gu Chan turned around and glared at Ma Zheng, signaling him to shut up, then she reached out and patted the handsome guy's chest to comfort him, "Okay, don't get excited, I promise you, you should take good care of your injuries first."

"Little brother...thank you..." The handsome guy reached out and held Gu Chan's hand tightly. After saying this, he closed his eyes and died immediately.

“……”Gu Chan was confused.

Omg!

According to the normal routine, shouldn't this handsome guy hold on to his last breath, then get better with her treatment, and then something else will happen between the two of them?

How could he just die like this?

Gu Chan hadn't even started to save him yet? Wasn't he dying too hastily?

Ma Zheng sighed speechlessly, "This is great. If someone finds out and blames us, we will be so embarrassed that we won't be able to explain ourselves."

"Okay, stop complaining. The person is already dead. What else is there to say? Hurry up and dig a hole and bury him. This will allow him to rest in peace sooner." Gu Chan pulled her hand back from the handsome guy and scolded him angrily.

Ma Zheng didn't dare to talk back and could only nod silently.

Then the two men started digging a hole nearby. They used their bare hands to dig a hole and buried the handsome guy in black in it.

After burying the body, Gu Chan put the token and the secret letter into her arms and said to Ma Zheng, "Let's go! Let's continue catching bugs. Let's fill this small cloth bag as soon as possible so that we can go back earlier."

"Boss, aren't you afraid? This is the first time I've seen a dead person!"

"Coward, what's there to be afraid of? Let me tell you, dead people are not scary, living people are scary." Gu Chan patted Ma Zheng on the head and scolded him.

Ma Zheng nodded repeatedly as he listened, thinking that what she said made sense.

Gu Chan reminded him again, "Remember, only the two of us know about this. You can't tell anyone else, otherwise your life will be in danger. If you don't want your grandmother and us to die, you'd better keep your mouth shut."

"Don't worry, I won't tell anyone." Ma Zheng patted his chest and promised.

Gu Chan nodded with satisfaction.

After that, the two of them didn't talk about it anymore and continued catching insects.

At dusk in the afternoon, the two of them caught a small bag full of bugs and left the wasteland behind the mountain to go home.

On the way back, Ma Zheng stayed by Gu Chan's side the whole time and never left her side.

Gu Chan looked at his alert expression and couldn't help but smile. She thought that boys can indeed give people a greater sense of security than girls.

If there was a girl following her at this moment, she would probably be the one to be wary of.

This also indirectly proves one point, that is, often times, it is better for a woman to have a man around to order her around.

When they got home, Ma Zheng said to Gu Chan, "Boss, I'm going to go back first. If you have any problems in the future, just let me know. Don't worry about me."

"Haha...Okay, you go back and rest!" Gu Chan laughed dryly and waved her hand.

The horse grinned and ran away happily.

Zhang Wanshan came over and took the bag of bugs handed to him by Gu Chan, then he set up a pot on the stove, put half a pot of water in it, poured the full bag of bugs in, and started cooking over high heat.

Gu Chan stepped forward and asked, "Grandpa, are we just going to cook the bugs and feed them to it?"

"Yes! It would be great if we had some cornmeal. Put the cornmeal in and cook it with the insects. The cooked insect porridge will be more nutritious." Zhang Wanshan held a wooden stick and stirred the insects in the pot while sighing repeatedly.

"Grandpa, what is cornmeal?" Gu Chan asked.

Zhang Wanshan explained, "It's what they call corn flour in the county. In our countryside, it's called corn. When corn is ground into flour, it's called corn flour."

"I see."

"Okay, go and eat! Leave this to me. Go and rest early after eating. You must be very tired today." Zhang Wanshan said with concern.

Gu Chan nodded and went to eat the food her grandfather had prepared for her with a happy look on her face.

After finishing her meal quickly, Gu Chan hid in the inner room and closed the door. Then she lay on the bed and took out the secret letter hidden in her arms.

Two eels jumped out of her pocket and lay in front of her.

Yellow eel Baidu asked, [Do you want to open it and take a look? ]

"What do you think?" Gu Chan asked back.

[I think it’s best to open it and take a look. If anything happens, we can take precautions in advance.] Huang Shan Sogou said.

When Gu Chan heard what it said, she thought it made sense, so she didn't hesitate any longer and immediately opened the envelope carefully and took out the letter inside.

But when she saw what was written on the letter, she was stunned.
