Back to 1978: Getting rich starts with treasure hunting

Gu Jiu looked around at the dark alleys, turned around and asked incredulously: "The important thing you said is to stand here and feed mosquitoes?"

Lin Shu aimed the spray bottle he brought at Gu Jiu's arms, feet and other exposed parts and sprayed them a few times. "Luckily I was prepared. I sprayed a few more times if there were mosquito bites."

Gu Jiu smelled the strong scent of mugwort, "Did you make this mugwort water?"

"Yes, I added some floral water and a few drops of cooling oil to the mugwort water to prevent mosquito bites. It's an enhanced version."

Lin Shu sprayed it on himself, then sprayed it twice on the brick wall beside him, then leaned against the wall which was still warm from being exposed to the sun all day.

Looking at this familiar yet unfamiliar intersection, Lin Shu's thoughts drifted away.

It was dark, and Gu Jiu couldn't notice the emotions revealed in Lin Shu's eyes, but through the dim light of the street lamp, he could still see where Lin Shu was looking.

Following her gaze, I saw the sign of the military district guesthouse not far away.

I couldn't figure out why she came here, so I calmed down and watched whether she came here to wait for someone or wait for something to happen.

The familiar scene here reminded Lin Shu of her previous life, when an incident happened here that she would never forget.

She came here tonight just to find out who that person was in her previous life.

In his previous life, Zhu Zhengliang did not return to the city because of his hand injury, but because he was chased by a wild boar on the mountain, fell down the mountain, fractured his leg, and was finally admitted to the County People's Hospital.

At that time, Wei Miao came to ask her to come to the county town together, saying that it was to give her courage. In fact, later on, thinking about it, it must be Zhu Zhengliang who said something to Wei Miao, which made Wei Miao, who was obsessed with Zhu Zhengliang, run to the door for help.

Because she couldn't let go of Zhu Zhengliang, she came to the county town with Wei Miao. She took care of Zhu Zhengliang during the day, and Wei Miao took over at night.

In the past, she couldn’t understand how that scumbag Zhu Zhengliang managed to balance the relationship between the two of them and make the two women willingly be used by him?

Now that I think about it, without mentioning other people’s reasons, the real reason is that I was too stupid in my previous life.

That is, when she was returning to the guesthouse, it was late in the evening, and when she passed by this place, she was hit from behind with a club in the dark. When she woke up, she was lying in a room in the guesthouse not far away.

All her clothes fell to the ground, and the discomfort between her legs made her realize what happened during her coma...

"Just hide here and don't let anyone find you."

"What about you?" Gu Jiu didn't understand what she was going to do.

Lin Shu raised his chin slightly, "I'm just standing there."

Gu Jiu looked at the big tree on the roadside not far away and said firmly: "Are you waiting for someone?"

"Correct!"

"Who?"

"A person I want to skin alive but also want to thank!"

Although Lin Shu's tone was calm, there seemed to be a storm brewing underneath this calm tone.

Gu Jiu swallowed and said, "Then, what do you need me to do?"

Somehow, at this moment, Gu Jiu wanted to behave more obediently.

After Lin Shu explained this, he estimated that the time was about right, so he walked along the same route he had taken in his previous life towards the guesthouse in the distance.

It was just one, two, three or four steps, and he was almost at the guesthouse, and no one came to hit him with a club from behind.

Lin Shu was unwilling to give up, so he returned to the place where the accident happened, but still nothing happened.

[What's going on? Why hasn't the person who should appear appeared yet? ]

[System, are there any strangers around me? ]

[Returning to the host, does Gu Jiu count? 】

【Stranger!】 Lin Shu emphasized.

[Oh, nothing. I only found dozens of rats underground and two cats on the roof.]

Feeling a mosquito bite on his face, Lin Shu closed his eyes, held his breath, and sprayed some moxa leaf water on his face to repel the mosquito.

After going back and forth three or four times, the person who should appear still hasn't shown up. What's going on?

Could it be that because she was reborn, some things changed?

But that shouldn't be the case. After she came back, the only things that changed were in the village. She only came to the county town a few times, so it was impossible for her to change the life trajectory of the city people.

After slapping the Nth mosquito to death, Gu Jiu couldn't stand it anymore, so he walked out of the alley, hugged Lin Shu and walked back, "The person you are waiting for will never show up."

"How do you know?" Lin Shu felt that he was very close to the truth, just short of breaking through that thin layer of window paper.

But this truth, which can be revealed with just a slight poke, is now impossible to find.

"From your anxious mood, I can tell that the person who should have shown up is already late, and has been late for at least two hours." Gu Jiu was also dissatisfied with the person who broke the appointment, causing him to stand in the dark alley and feed mosquitoes for two or three hours.

After returning home, Lin Shu took a hot bath. As the hot water came on, his irritable mood eased.

Gu Jiu hugged her from behind, leaned over and kissed her ear, "Don't think about it. Although I don't know who you are waiting for, since you dare not keep the appointment on time, it means you are a person who does not keep your word. Is such a person more important than your husband, me?"

The truth had already gone far away from her. For some reason, Lin Shu suddenly thought of the son whom she had raised with great difficulty in her previous life, her pitiful, smart and filial eldest son.

Seeing that she was still in a daze, Gu Jiu turned her body over with dissatisfaction and gave her a kiss with a hint of jealousy.

Lin Shu pushed him away, then thought of something, grabbed his collar, stood on tiptoe and bit his neck.

Gu Jiu gasped. He had never seen Lin Shu take the initiative before, so he couldn't help but be even more rude.

......

The next day, Lin Shu woke up, slapped the big hand on his chest, and glared at the man in front of him who disturbed his dream.

"A steady trickle of water flows forever, don't you understand?"

"Pfft!"

Gu Jiu couldn't help laughing, he looked down at his strong body and asked with a smile: "I'm afraid you have some misunderstanding about the idiom of slow and steady flow. This idiom is only suitable for middle-aged and elderly couples like my parents. And I just need to follow my heart."

Lin Shu really wanted to curse you, "You big-headed ghost," but all his words were blocked by someone.

Due to the huge disparity in physical strength between men and women, Gu Jiu won the wrestling match.

When the two of them finished packing and came out of the room, it was already noon outside. After having breakfast at the state-owned restaurant, Lin Shu went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy a few tools with industrial coupons, and then rode out of the city with Gu Jiu.

After riding for an hour, I found a deserted hilltop and, as usual, hid the bike in a dense bush.

As soon as he entered the forest, Shu discovered that there were clumps of ground radish growing on the ground. "Gu Jiu, this purple fruit is delicious."

Gu Jiu squatted down and picked a small purple fruit. "It's a bit dirty growing on the ground, isn't it? Can it really be eaten?"

"of course."

The ground cover herb, also known as ground cover herb, mountain herb, and ground mulberry in some places, is a creeping small shrub of the Melastomataceae family and the Melastoma genus. It is an excellent ground cover herb that combines medicinal, ornamental and health-care functions.

The whole plant of the plant can be used as medicine, the fruit can be eaten, and it can be used to make wine. In some places, it is also called hemorrhoid grass.

Lin Shu took out a small cloth bag and asked Gu Jiu to pick the ripe purple fruits and put them in it.

She continued to search in the woods by herself, and sometimes she would put whatever she found into the system. Di Cai also put a lot of plants into the system.

The purchase price of the ground radish plants is not bad, the system gives one yuan per catty.
