Tomb raiding: following the plot while tearing up the script

An unnamed village in Northeast China is now covered in snow, a blanket of white stretching as far as the eye can see.

"Whoosh... Bang..."

"Crackling..."

Fireworks exploded in the dark night sky, bursting into dazzling displays, and the entire village came alive with the lively sound of firecrackers.

The villagers, young and old, all came out to watch the excitement. Seeing the village decorated so festively, they couldn't help but marvel.

The whole village was decorated with red ribbons, colorful lanterns, and Spring Festival couplets. Even the straw piles and telephone poles along the roadside were covered with the character "福" (good fortune). This was the first time they had ever seen such a scene.

It's strange, really. Their little village is in a rather remote location, a two-hour drive from the nearest county town, and it's not exactly a tourist hotspot.

Not long ago, a convoy of cars came and booked the village chief's newly built two-story house. Judging from the way the village chief's whole family was happily moving back to their old house, they probably made a fortune.

The convoy had quite a few people, but it seemed to be led by a few young men, each one incredibly handsome. Even the few young women and wives in the village would blush for half a day if they secretly glanced at them.

Fortunately, since these young people moved into that building, apart from one tall guy who liked to go out for walks with a baby, the others haven't been very active. Otherwise, the village lads would definitely have protested.

These young people didn't look like ordinary kids. Although they didn't go out much, they had several subordinates coming and going every day, and every morning a car would drive into the village in the snow to deliver things.

Wow, they're all big bosses!

These past two days, the villagers have been preparing for the Lunar New Year. Those subordinates have been visiting each household to deliver New Year's gifts, saying that their children have never seen anything festive before, and they wanted to decorate the village to bring some joy.

What's there to be unhappy about?!

We received New Year's gifts, and people even contributed money to decorate our village! We were so happy!

The simple and honest villagers were too embarrassed to accept the expensive New Year's gifts. It took a lot of persuasion and auspicious words from the villagers to finally get them to accept them. Afterwards, they gave the villagers a bunch of New Year's goods that they had prepared themselves.

This family gives you a bag of sticky rice cakes, that family gives you a bowl of fried meatballs, one family brings you a plate of sweet and sour pork, another brings you a bag of dried mushrooms...

Su Li smiled broadly as she looked at the homemade candied hawthorn skewer (a bundle of straw covered with candied hawthorns, the kind people carry when selling them) stuck in the snowdrift in the small courtyard. The villagers were so adorable...

Seeing the New Year's goods in the gift bag and the bulging red envelope prominently displayed on top, the villagers beamed with joy. These young masters were so generous…

Both parties who exchanged gifts were very satisfied with each other, and they got along very harmoniously and happily for half a month.

Ok……

Even the village chief, who didn't spend his first New Year in his new house but received enough money to rent out another three-story house, was beaming with joy and grinning like an idiot whenever he bumped into someone in the village lately.

This year-end was truly one of the most lively years in the village, with everything bustling with activity and every household filled with delicious aromas.

Unexpectedly, a windfall fell from the sky, and the well-off parents were unusually generous, buying firecrackers and fireworks for their children.

A group of little kids with faces red from the cold ran around the village, setting off firecrackers here and blasting snow there.

As they played, the village's leader of the children noticed two strange and mysterious adults had sneaked into the group.

The strange thing was that these two, despite being so old, got along really well with them. The tall guy with sunglasses was amazing; he could hit the tree hole so high every time, making the snow on the tree fall down in a flurry.

It's amazing, isn't it? That handsome guy with long hair, he's a really amazing person. He can pull out box after box of firecrackers from his pocket anytime, anywhere to replenish their ammunition.

They can also pull out all sorts of delicious food and feed it to everyone around them.

Whether he'd seen it before, never seen it before, or never even heard of it, he had only one impression of it all: delicious, so delicious, incredibly delicious!!!

After everyone had run around wildly with that tall guy for a while, they would all swarm around the handsome older brother, waiting to be fed.

These past few days, my family has found it strange that I usually run around outside all day and then come back looking for food like a starving ghost. But lately, not only have I stopped looking for food, I've also stopped eating proper meals.

The parents, puzzled by what they found out, were left speechless. They laughed and scolded the group of mischievous kids, watched them for a while with smiles in their eyes, and then went back to preparing for the New Year and doing their spring cleaning.

……

"Ahhhhhh! You blind bastard, stop right there!!"

With her head covered in snow, Su Li chased after the black rat, who darted away at lightning speed, chuckling slyly as it hurried into the courtyard.

Unexpectedly, Fatty Wang was carrying a tray of dumplings, intending to put them outside to freeze, when he happened to pass by the courtyard gate. Black Bear, who was turning around to provoke him, bumped straight into Fatty Wang's sturdy body.

Wang Pangzi was completely bewildered. His subconscious reaction, honed by months of training, was to first put up a protective barrier for himself.

"Duang..."

Caught off guard, the black bear crashed directly into the bouncy, yellowish-brown ball of light, narrowly avoiding being sent flying.

Fortunately, his body had excellent reflexes; he took a step back with one long leg, used his waist to twist and stabilize himself.

But just as he regained his balance, he caught a glimpse of a leg sweeping towards him from the side and behind.

"Fuck!!!"

As soon as they entered the courtyard, they saw two figures locked in combat.

Wow!!!

The brutal aesthetics of hand-to-hand combat!

handsome! ! !

"Brother Zhang is awesome!!! Brother Zhang is the best!!! Brother Zhang, beat him up!!!"

The child jumped around, his eyes sparkling as he cheered for Zhang Qiling, occasionally throwing a punch or a kick, as if he were the one being attacked by the bear in the yard.

It's not that he can't be suppressed. If he uses his spiritual power, he should be able to suppress the entire small world.

Black Bear: That's not necessary...

Hearing the commotion, Wuxie, dressed in a light brown sweater, peeked out from behind the curtain to see what was going on. His little face was covered in white flour, making the already young-looking Third Master look even younger. He was so cute and adorable, but he had no brains (not really).

"Little Flower, Little Flower, come quick! The blind man got beaten up by the young man again!!!"

Wu Xie wiped his face with the back of his flour-covered hand, unknowingly adding another layer of white to his handsome face, and gleefully called out to a certain little flower who was still concentrating on making dumplings inside the house.

Xie Yuchen didn't want to join in the fun anymore. He'd been getting tired of seeing Hei Xiazi get beaten up by Zhang Qiling every single day these past few days.

He'd only go see something interesting if he didn't get beaten up one day.
