It rained yesterday and the weather today is not very good either. It is pitch black and there is not even a star in the night.

Zhou Yichen looked coldly at Chu Yunting who was standing at the door with his deep eyes.

"You'll just drop me off at the guesthouse entrance?"

Chu Yunting shrank his head, "Yeah, Xiao Chu only asked me to send her to the door, she left so quickly!"

Zhou Yichen...

Well, maybe someone as tough as Chu Xin doesn’t need to be given a gift!

After walking a distance, Chu Xin ran into the Wang family who were looking for her.

"Why are you here?"

Fortunately, she came back after she finished her business. If she had followed her to the abandoned house, they would have taken the wrong road and missed each other.

Wang Youzhi looked her up and down for a few times, and after confirming that she was not injured, he said unhappily:

"It's already dark, how can I be at ease if I don't come out to look for you?!"

Li Xiulan had nothing to worry about. With the dim light of the flashlight, she pulled Chu Xin and looked him over and over, muttering to herself.

"Qiangzi said you brought people out, so we couldn't sit still and came out to look for you. Teacher Du said they didn't see you at the police station, so they came to the guesthouse to look for you. You really are here."

Wang Youzhi was worried that his wife was being too straightforward and would ask questions that would embarrass Chu Xin, so he quickly changed the subject.

"Where's the man you captured? Did you hand him over to the military comrades here?"

Seeing that she had nothing in her hands, he asked uncertainly.

Did he kill someone again? His niece had killed someone before!

Chu Xin was speechless. As soon as she saw Wang Youzhi's expression, she knew what he meant.

"The person has been handed over to them, don't worry!"

This isn't the end of the world, so she's always measured in her actions. She's just more ruthless towards spies, enemies, and enemies.

These people were neither compatriots nor people who could resolve their grievances and reach reconciliation. Even if she struck harder and caused casualties, it would be their own fault.

Who can you blame when your strength speaks for itself? !

Based on what Wang Youzhi had seen and heard over the past few times, he could conclude that the person today was at least seriously injured.

"I'm not being strict with you, I'm just worried that you might get hurt out there. Things aren't peaceful right now, and you're always facing this alone. We're really worried.

I know you're capable of protecting yourself, but I'm still worried. Now that you're here, I have a responsibility to take care of you. No matter what you do, you have to protect yourself, okay?!"

As he said this, he couldn't help but sigh again and again why this girl was so worrying! Especially since this one in their family was different.

Chu Xin felt relieved after hearing this, and was also glad that she did not hide her behavior from Wang Youzhi at the beginning, so she didn't have to go to great lengths to lie.

She could also feel that Li Xiulan had changed a lot in her interactions with her and had given her a lot of space, which was something rarely seen in a rural woman.

Chu Xin was not an ungrateful person. She took the initiative to hold Li Xiulan's hand and helped her onto the ox cart, and waited until she was seated before getting on.

"Don't worry, aunt and uncle. If there's anything I can't solve, I'll take the initiative to tell you. Just put your heart at ease."

Wang Youzhi nodded and glanced at his wife, seeing that she was still immersed in the joy of Chu Xin getting close to her. He had no choice but to respond to Chu Xin himself.

"Okay, as long as you know what's going on!"

The three of them rode in an ox cart, and Wang Qiang rode a bicycle by himself. In this way, the family chatted as they set out on the night journey home.

Chu Xin also realized that during the days when she was running to the commune from morning till night, a big event had happened in the brigade.

The occurrence of this incident made her suspect that the world she was in now was a parallel world.

Chu Xin remembered that this wave of going to the countryside to eliminate the three major differences was initiated by "the senior leaders calling on the educated youth to go to the countryside to receive re-education from the middle and lower poor peasants." It should have happened in 1968.

And now the large-scale migration of educated youth to the countryside has begun!

Unlike those of them who went to the countryside to have enough food or to avoid the limelight for political reasons, and even more different from Chu Xin, who went to the countryside purely for refuge.

Most of these educated youth were those who responded to the call to go to the countryside impulsively, and some were those who had to go to the countryside because of quotas.

The cause of the incident was caused by these people.

A new group of educated youth came to the Hongqi Brigade, and conflicts arose as soon as they arrived over room allocation and food issues.

There was a new educated youth who was said to have a good family background. Because of the issue of room allocation, he said some unpleasant words to the original educated youth, and the quarrel between the two people escalated into a fight.

It wasn't a big deal, but the man had a sister who was very protective of him and smashed his head with a brick.

The new educated youth's boyfriend refused to give in and started fighting with his sister again. The sister went crazy and wanted to kill someone, and almost beat the boyfriend to death.

When Chu Xin heard this, she knew who her brother and sister were.

"Didn't those two siblings go to live in the cowshed?"

Wang Youzhi sighed, "Alas, Chen Xin has always wanted to move back home. This time, with the new educated youth coming, he's worried that if they take their place, he'll never be able to go back."

Chu Xin didn't know what to say. Since it had nothing to do with her, she didn't express any opinion.

She wants to have a good rest for a few days, stay in the brigade and not go anywhere else.

Liu Yanli and Brother Hu finally arrived in Northwest Su Province on the night of the tenth day.

"Brother Huzi, why don't you rest for a night before going further? You are too tired!"

Seeing that Brother Hu could hardly open his eyes, Liu Yanli was worried that something might happen.

Brother Hu shook his head with all his strength.

"It's not far. My hometown, Huaniuzhai Brigade, is right in front of us. It's just a matter of stepping on the accelerator."

The car was swaying on the bumpy road. Liu Yanli couldn't persuade Brother Hu, and she stared at the road conditions under the dim headlights with worried eyes.

Suddenly, a dark shadow flashed through the bushes by the roadside. Liu Yanli screamed in fright.

"Brother Huzi, Brother Huzi, there's something on the roadside!"

Frightened by her, Tiger slammed on the brakes and immediately regained consciousness, stretching his head to look outside.

"What? Where is it?"

It was the beginning of September, and the grass and trees on both sides of the road were a little bleak. Logically speaking, even if there was anything there, it would not be able to conceal its figure well.

Hu Zi was sitting in the car and had the advantage of height, but he couldn't see the black shadow that Liu Yanli mentioned.

"Is it too dark and your eyes are blurry?"

After hearing what he said, Liu Yanli became a little uncertain.

"Maybe. Let's go quickly. It's too scary out in the wilderness!"

It's no wonder Liu Yanli said that. The brigade to which Brother Hu's hometown belongs is located in the northern part of the county, with many loess ridges, hills, and gullies. The vegetation coverage is poor, and soil erosion is serious. When the wind blows, yellow sand fills the sky.

The population is relatively small and not concentrated. They have never seen a ray of light since they left the county town.

No light means no people.

Brother Hu knew that she was scared, so he quickly comforted her and restarted the car to continue driving.

Liu Yanli suddenly shouted again:

"Ah! I see it again. It's a person!"
