Fast Travel Absurdity Sutra

Lantian hurriedly stopped and listened carefully.

A woman's faint but sharp cry for help was heard on the wind.

It was a quiet yet dangerous path, with the surrounding trees swaying gently in the breeze.

Suddenly, a faint and painful sound of struggling came into her ears.

Her steps paused for a moment, and her sharp eyes quickly searched around for the source of the sound.

In the bushes not far away, she saw a horrifying scene.

A woman was being pinned down by a man. Her clothes were disheveled, her face was filled with fear and despair, and her body was twisting weakly.

The perpetrator had a ferocious look on his face and was about to commit even more brutal acts.

A surge of anger surged in Lantian's heart, and he rushed forward without hesitation.

Just as she was about to get close, the abuser suddenly uttered something in the Japanese language.

Lantian was slightly stunned. The unique pronunciation and tone made Lantian instantly certain that the guy in front of him was an enemy spy.

Suddenly, Lantian's anger was like a burning flame, blazing and uncontrollable.

She recalled that the Municipal Bureau had yet to investigate Liujia Village, and no investigators had even entered the village to investigate. This slow progress made her truly believe the Municipal Bureau's investigative arm was somewhat incompetent. She had already sent people there for over a month, and yet they still hadn't found anything about Liujia Village.

The people in Liujia Village were even more obtuse. Liu Jianjun had not appeared in the village for a long time, but they had no idea.

Once, because of Liu Jianjun's existence, she was troubled by the rumors in the village that she had to marry him. Now that Liu Jianjun is gone, and she has a close relationship with Wang Sao, and with Wang Sao's protection, the rumors have gradually dissipated.

But at this moment, these thoughts only flashed through her mind, and her attention was completely focused on the enemy spy in front of her.

Lantian's eyes were wide open with anger. He rushed forward and kicked the assailant.

The enemy spy was caught off guard by the sudden attack and fell to one side.

Lantian followed up with another punch, hitting him hard in the face.

With just a scream, blood immediately flowed from the enemy spy's nose.

Lantian had no intention of stopping. She was like an enraged lioness, and every move she made was full of power and anger.

As she beat him, she roared, "You despicable enemy spy! How dare you commit such evil and do such beastly things in broad daylight!"

Under Lantian's violent attack, the enemy spy was soon beaten all over his body. He didn't even have a chance to speak or defend himself before he fainted.

Lantian looked at the unconscious enemy spy on the ground, a cold glint in her eyes. She wanted to kill him and destroy the body. She hated such beastly behavior. As a woman, she felt the same way. She despised these scumbags and believed they didn't deserve to live in this world.

However, thinking of Liu Jianjun and the enemy spy organization that hadn't been investigated at all, she even felt that the Public Security Bureau hadn't yet found the cave in the back mountain. She could only endure it and let this scumbag live.

"Ergou, do you still have that Swift Movement Pill?"

"Ah, yes, I do. But..."

"What are you babbling about? But what?" Lantian was a little impatient. She was sure the woman wouldn't wake up for a while, so she moved her into her own space. She took out a rope and tied the scumbag up like a cocoon, making him extremely uncomfortable. She picked him up and punched him a few more times, making sure he wouldn't wake up for a long time before throwing him into her space.

Alas, it’s really troublesome that I don’t have spiritual power and can’t move quickly.

"You have to exchange it with points. One hundred points. This is exchanged for you from the system mall." The cocky Ergou said cautiously.

If he had eyes, he would definitely be staring at Lantian nervously at this moment.

He knew how stingy this host was. For so long, she had never used her points to redeem any products in the mall.

Sure enough, when Lantian heard that points were needed, his eyebrows subconsciously frowned.

If she really couldn't do it, without teleportation, she wouldn't be able to get this scumbag to the Public Security Bureau. She hesitated for a long time before finally making up her mind, "Switch."

"Huh?" Even the arrogant Ergou was shocked by her words! He didn't react for a long time.

"I said, change, quickly." Lantian urged the arrogant Ergou.

The arrogant Ergou was confused by Lantian.

Exchange, really exchange.

He reacted quickly, and a pill appeared in Lan Tian's hand.

Lantian ate it immediately and quickly moved to the entrance of the Municipal Public Security Bureau.

In order to allow the Public Security Bureau to conduct an in-depth investigation into the enemy spies, she suppressed her inner urge and dragged him to the door of the Public Security Bureau like a dead dog.

She attached a note to the enemy spy, which read briefly and forcefully: Japanese, enemy spy. After doing all this, Lantian turned around and quickly moved back to her house and released the woman.

The woman still fainted.

Lantian carefully picked up the woman, gently placed her on the bed, and carefully checked her condition.

The woman's face was as pale as paper, her lips were bloodless, and her breathing was so weak that it was almost imperceptible.

Lantian quickly fetched a basin of water and gently wiped the dirt and blood off the woman's face with a towel.

Under her careful care, the woman gradually showed some response, her eyelids trembled slightly, and then she slowly opened her eyes.

The woman's eyes were filled with fear and confusion. She looked at Lantian vigilantly and her body unconsciously shrank back.

Lantian comforted softly:

"Don't be afraid, you're safe. My name is Zhou Tian, ​​and I'm an educated youth from Liujia Village. I happened to be going up the mountain today, and I saved you."

The woman relaxed a little, and her voice trembled as she said:

"My name is Li Man, and I'm a designer at the city power plant. That man is Huang Sanshu, our factory's boilerman. He, he, I, I, I found him destroying the boiler today. I, I was about to stop him when he knocked me unconscious. When I woke up, I found myself, on the mountain. Girl, you, you should call the police quickly. Otherwise, if the factory boiler explodes, the consequences will be disastrous."

Although the woman was frightened, she still tried to explain the situation calmly and clearly.

Lantian sighed inwardly, well, fortunately it's still within the validity period of the Swift Movement Pill, so he has to run one more time.

She said to the woman, "Just lie down first. I'll get someone to call the police."

With that, she left the room and quickly arrived at the Public Security Bureau entrance. At this moment, only twenty minutes had passed, and the scumbag had already been taken in by the Public Security Bureau.

She thought for a moment and quietly dropped a note on the doorman's head.

"Ouch, who, who?" The guard felt a pain on his forehead and quickly reached out to catch it, only to find it was a note.

He stuck his head out of the room to check, but saw no one at the door.

The guards at the Public Security Bureau are all veterans and are very vigilant.

He unfolded the note and saw the words, "That person was an enemy spy from the island nation, Huang Sanshu, the boilerman at the power plant. He has damaged the power plant's boiler. Please notify the power plant immediately to prevent the boiler from exploding."

The guard was so shocked that he no longer cared about looking for the person who gave him the note. He immediately ran towards the Public Security Bureau office building.

"No, no, this is bad. Someone is sabotaging the boiler at the power plant. It's that bastard we just arrested. Quick, quick, notify the power plant."

Lantian, hiding far away on a branch, saw that the urgent message had been delivered. She quickly returned to the outside of the room, reached out and pushed the door open, and walked in.

"Riemann, I've already asked someone to report this to the police immediately. You don't have to worry. Just focus on recovering."

At this time, Lantian looked at Li Man and said seriously, "That man is an enemy spy. I discovered him while he was doing something bad. Do you remember how he brought you there?"

A trace of pain from memories flashed across Liman's eyes, and she said slowly:

"I'm the designer of the power plant. Today, when I was working in the factory, I found him secretly destroying the main equipment of the power plant. I wanted to stop him, but he knocked me unconscious. Then I knew nothing and found myself in that terrible place when I woke up."

She looked at Lantian with a guilty expression on her face.

"I, I'm such a loser. I shouldn't have overestimated my abilities back then. I, I should have secretly run off to report to the leadership. I'm such a loser."

Lantian was secretly surprised as he listened to Riemann's story.

She knew that the enemy spies had already planned to blow up the power plant.

She had never imagined that even after she had sent the entire enemy spy organization's junior leader to the Public Security Bureau, someone would still continue to sabotage the power plant.

It seemed that the power plant was even more important to the entire city than she had imagined. If it were successfully destroyed by enemy agents, the consequences would be disastrous.

In the previous life, there was no such person as Riemann in the original owner's memory.

Lantian couldn't help but sigh at the wonder and cruelty of fate.

If he had not happened to pass by, Riemann would probably have been tortured to death silently by enemy spies, just like in his previous life, and become one of the missing persons.

Now that he had saved her, he had to protect her and at the same time take advantage of this opportunity to uncover the enemy's conspiracy.

?

But Xia Jun was busy with the black market work alone, and he really felt overwhelmed.

He wanted to find another person, and at this time, Liu Min reminded him in time.

"Xia Jun, I see that you and Song Xiang have a very good relationship. I think that among you, Song Xiang is very smart and suitable to work with you."

After hearing Liu Min's words, Xia Jun had an idea.

Recently he has been busy working for Liu Min and trading in the black market, and has not paid much attention to the affairs of the educated youth center for a long time.

Fortunately, it has been winter recently.

People in the north stay at home during the winter and don't do much farm work.

He didn't have to work in the fields every day, which made it easier for him to trade on the black market.

Song Xiang's face flashed through his mind.

Strangely, he didn't feel as passionate as before. He hadn't thought about Song Xiang for many days.

These days, he didn't contact Song Xiang at all and didn't miss her at all.

Xia Jun suddenly felt a little guilty.

anyway?

Song Xiangdu has been in his heart since he was a child.

The two of them teamed up to cheat Zhou Tian, ​​and Song Xiang gave most of the money and property they cheated to him.

So, in fact, the two of them did not suffer much over the years.

It is precisely because they have never experienced any hardship that they feel that life in the countryside is particularly difficult.

He thought this was a good thing.

This is such a good thing. Taking Song Xiang with me should make her life much easier!

Thinking of this, Xia Jun, without Liu Min's urging, decided to go find Song Xiang.

It was already late when he came back from the black market.

In the corner outside the educated youth dormitory, barely illuminated by the dim moonlight, Xia Jun's figure was half hidden in the shadows, revealing only a pair of eyes that shone with excitement in the darkness.

He asked Song Xiang out.

He bent his waist slightly, like a fox about to share the secret of a treasure, and his voice was very low but could not hide his excitement:

"Song Xiang, do you know what I've been doing lately? I've been dealing in things on the black market lately. I tell you, I'm making a lot of money. I've discovered that this black market is like a mysterious cave full of treasures. As long as we dare to go in, we can get a lot of wealth."

Song Xiang frowned, and after hearing what Xia Jun said, her eyes were full of worry and fear.

Ever since Zhou Tian went crazy and told Xia Jun everything they had done to him in the past, Song Xiang didn't dare to talk to Xia Jun at all.

And, most importantly, she discovered that after she inexplicably passed out in the grove, her dimension was gone. She no longer had the spiritual spring to cleanse her skin. Her head also often ached for unknown reasons. She felt as if she had lost her dimension and had become much more clumsy.

Tonight, after Xia Jun called her out of the house, she knew that Xia Jun must have something important to tell her. However, she didn't expect it to be such a big thing.

She immediately began to tremble.

A huge fear suddenly came over her.

She shook her head repeatedly: "Xia Jun, this is illegal. Once we are caught, our lives will be ruined. I dare not do it."

Xia Jun stomped his feet anxiously and waved his hands in the air, as if trying to dispel Song Xiang's fear.

He leaned forward, staring at Song Xiang, and spoke very quickly:

"Why are you so timid? I've been in there many times. Every time I was safe and sound. As long as we are smart enough and as quiet as a cat in the night, how can we be discovered?"

As he spoke, he reached out and gently patted Song Xiang's shoulder, trying to soothe her anxiety.

Song Xiang still looked hesitant, her lips trembling slightly as she seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Seeing this, Xia Jun took a deep breath, put on a sincere expression, and slowed down his tone:

"Just think about it, what kind of life are we leading in this village? We work ourselves to death every day, and are ostracized and looked down upon by the villagers. But if we make a fortune in the black market, everything will be different. We can build ourselves spacious and bright houses, and we won't have to worry about food and clothing. Who will dare to look down on us then? This is our only chance to change our fate. Are you willing to be trampled underfoot forever?"

There was a trace of hesitation in Song Xiang's eyes. She bit her lip and said in a trembling voice:

"But...what if..."

Xia Jun immediately interrupted her, holding Song Xiang's hands tightly with both hands, his eyes full of determination:

"There's no such thing as a one-time deal! I've planned it all out. Before every transaction, I'll thoroughly investigate every detail, looking for the most secluded locations, the most reliable sources of goods, and buyers. Just follow me and do as I say, and there won't be any problems. Song Xiang, let's take a gamble together. It's better than enduring this poverty forever, right?"

Song Xiang lowered her head, struggling fiercely in her heart, and her hands unconsciously tugged at the corners of her clothes.

Xia Junze kept staring at her, the anticipation in his eyes seemed to be overflowing.

After a long time, Song Xiang slowly raised her head, looked at Xia Jun's hopeful eyes, and finally nodded gently.

A brilliant smile suddenly broke out on Xia Jun's face. In that smile was a mixture of cunningness and infinite longing for a "great cause" in the future.
