Yunnan Province is located on a plateau with fertile soil and a warm climate. People have to work all year round, but summer and autumn harvests are more tiring. At other times, people have a little more free time.

Wu Qing took a broom, cleaned the room, got into bed, lowered the mosquito net and went for a nap.

Wen Qing walked out of the room. The educated youth in the other three rooms were cooking. When they saw her, they greeted her: "Wen Qing is back? Are you feeling better?"

Wen Qing replied: "It's a concussion. The doctor said I need to rest for a few days and come back to recuperate."

He then said, "Brother Guo, Brother Li, Brother Gu, Brother Luo, thank you for your concern. You guys can cook first."

She walked out of the youth cadre center. Smoke was rising from the village as the villagers were cooking. The fields were very quiet. The layers of wheat fields and tracts of corn fields seemed to have been planted not long ago and were only a foot high. The water in the terraced fields in the distance reflected the blue sky.

The wheat waves sway in the breeze, and the scenery is very beautiful.

In her previous life, she was a border guard. She was busy with work every day and had neither the time nor the mood to appreciate the beauty of nature. In this life, she wants to enjoy this hard-earned life.

She had to figure out the current environment and improve her life. Seeing that Wu Qing and several other educated youth were malnourished, she knew that the living conditions here were not good. She had to find a way to keep her body healthy and also think about how to live in the future.

Wen Qing walked along the village road and found the brigade headquarters she remembered.

The door of the brigade headquarters was ajar. She knocked on it and asked, "Is anyone there?"

A young man's voice answered, "Come in."

Wen Qing pushed open the door. The light in the room was dim. She walked in and said, "I'm going to see the captain and hand in my sick leave note."

The room was very simple, with only two tables, a few chairs, a cabinet, and a washstand with a bright red enamel washbasin on it.

The young man said, "The captain has gone home to eat. What do you want?"

Wen Qing explained: "I was injured the day before yesterday and was just discharged from the hospital today. The commune health center gave me three days of sick leave. I just want to let you know."

Wen Qing saw a calendar nailed to the wall. Today was May 1974, 5.

The young man said, "You have a sick leave note, right? Leave it here and I'll tell the captain later."

Wen Qing hesitated, and the young man saw her hesitation and said, "I'm here to do some work for the commune. My last name is Ma."

Wen Qing took out the sick leave note and handed it to him, saying, "Thank you!"

If this world is the same as the one in her previous life, she will need to stay in the countryside for another three years before she has the opportunity to return to the city.

The labor intensity in rural areas is extremely high. She has to solve the problem of food and earn money. She has to wait for opportunities to come and the environment to permit before developing her career. Now that she is here, she must live a good life.

When Wen Qing returned to the educated youth point, she found that the doors of all four rooms were closed, and everyone was probably taking a nap.

She gently opened the door, climbed up to the attic, and prepared to go for a walk in the mountains in the afternoon to see if she could find some herbs.

At two o'clock, a whistle sounded outside, and Wu Qing said downstairs: "I'm going to work."

Wen Qing replied, "Okay," and climbed down the ladder.

She changed into the long coat and trousers she wore for work: "What are you doing this afternoon?"

"Harvest rapeseed and dig the ground to plant vegetables." Wu Qing filled his military water bottle and hurried out.

Wen Qing carried the backpack, picked up the sickle, locked the door, and walked towards the mountains in the west.

She bypassed Xiangyang Village and along the way she only met some children cutting grass for pigs and a few children aged 5 or 6 playing in the sand by the river. The adults were all working on the farm, and the rural children were all left to roam freely.

After walking for more than half an hour, Wen Qing set foot on the path leading up the mountain. The climate in southern Xinjiang is warm and humid, and the vegetation in the woods is lush, similar to the environment of the border guard garrison in her previous life.

She climbed up along the path in the forest. Halfway down the mountain was a place frequented by villagers, who often came here to cut grass for pigs, pick mushrooms, chop branches and pick wild vegetables.

After walking for another hour, the mountain road gradually became unclear. She climbed up a large rock and looked around. The mountain was lush and green. What came into her eyes was a deep green, birds chirping, and a vibrant scene.

She saw several green plum trees under the rocks on the left, with many green plums on the trees. She got down from the rocks and found that it was a wild plum forest, full of green plums. Most of them were still green, and a few were yellow.

Wen Qing put down the basket and started picking.

Green plums can be used to make wine or green plum juice. In a short while, she had picked half a basket.

She wondered if these plum trees could be moved into space and planted?

Thinking of this, she picked up a hoe, dug up a plum tree and put it into the space. Then she entered the space herself, dug a hole in the grass by the lake, planted the plum tree, and then drew lake water to water it.

Come back in a few days to see if it survives?

After leaving the space, I looked at the dense forests and mountains, wondering if there were any poisonous snakes or ferocious beasts?

Wen Qing remembered that there was a dagger in the space study, and wondered if she could take the dagger out. Suddenly, a dagger appeared in her hand, and then she thought "go back." The dagger disappeared.

She tried it over and over again. As long as she thought of the dagger in her mind, the dagger appeared in her hand. As soon as she thought of the dagger going back, the dagger disappeared in her hand.

The same thing happened when testing bows and crossbows.

Looking at the bamboo not far away, I thought "bamboo" in my heart, but no bamboo appeared in my hands. It seems that the only objects that can be moved by mind are objects in space.

She couldn't help feeling happy. With the dagger, she could hunt some game.

Wen Qing walked around the rocks and plum forest for a few times and found traces of pheasants and hares.

She stopped and hid in the grass. After a while, a pheasant flew over with flapping wings.

Without hesitation, she threw the stone in her hand and hit the pheasant on the head accurately, knocking the pheasant unconscious.

Wen Qing walked over, cut some vines, tied the pheasant's wings and legs, and threw it into the backpack.

Later, I shot a few pheasants and tits. After packing up, I put the trophies into a backpack, covered them with a layer of pig grass, and went down the mountain to go home.

Going down the mountain was much faster than going up. Soon we reached the river beside the village. Just as we were about to wash our hands, we heard a child exclaim, "Erniu fell into the river."

"Wow, wow, come and save Erniu!"

Wen Qing put down the backpack and ran quickly to the river, only to see a small figure struggling in the water.

She dived into the river and swam towards the child. The child noticed someone swimming towards him and grabbed her hand tightly.

Wen Qing broke free from the child's hand, lifted his back so that he floated on the water, then turned around and swam towards the shore.

When they reached the shallow water, she picked up the child and carried him ashore. She placed the child face down on her knees and pushed twice to control the water in the child's stomach. The child vomited the water in his stomach with a "wow" and then "coughed, coughed" a few times to spit out more river water.

The drowning child Erniu burst into tears, and the three children who gathered around him also started crying.

Wen Qing asked: "Why are you all crying?"

"If Erniu drowns, we will all be beaten."

cried a snotty-nosed boy.

"Erniu, Erniu, what's wrong with you?" An 8 or 9-year-old girl ran over with a basket on her back and asked anxiously.

Several children nearby told her about the danger just now, and the girl said politely: "Thank you, sister, for saving my brother."

Wen Qing asked the children again, and it turned out that everyone was playing a water fight by the river. Erniu didn't notice there was a puddle under his feet, and he stepped into it and fell into the river. He struggled wildly in the water in a panic, and swam farther and farther. The children on the river bank didn't hold him in time, and Erniu was washed into the middle of the river.
