Erluzi was kicked by both feet at the same time, and his body flew backward.

Seeing this, Hei Zi and Zhao Erhu quickly dodged, watching helplessly as Erluzi flew more than five meters away, landed on the ground, and slid a short distance before stopping.

Turning around, Hei Zi raised his dagger and charged forward with a shout of "Ya!"

Zhao Erhu also grabbed a stone from the ground and threw it at Jiang Sen.

Jiang Sen and Wang Haiyang simultaneously took a step to the sides, dodging the first attack.

Jiang Sen intervened the moment Zhao Erhu slammed down the weapon.

He raised his right arm and slashed horizontally, aiming straight for the throat.

If this move hits, it can crush the opponent's throat.

However, he didn't want anyone to die, so he raised the price a little too high.

But this was enough to overwhelm Zhao Erhu.

He bit his tongue, his throat tightened, and after the stone fell to the ground, he clutched his neck tightly with both hands, his face turning as red as a pig's liver, and he knelt on the ground.

Wang Haiyang also made his move the instant the black dagger stabbed forward, delivering a chop to his neck.

Hei Zi rolled his eyes and fainted.

The two looked up at the same time, exchanged a glance, smiled, and then looked at Erluzi together.

Erluzi finally caught his breath and raised his upper body to see one lying motionless on the ground and the other kneeling motionless. He immediately panicked.

He kicked hard on the ground with both legs, shoveling snow and dirt away, before running towards the village on his hands and feet.

"Killing! Killing!"

Wang Haiyang was about to give chase, but Jiang Sen stopped him, saying, "Let's go into the village!"

Both of them were fearless fighters.

Jiang Sen was trained in prison in his previous life.

Wang Haiyang was trained in the army by his father.

They carried baskets on their backs and luggage, heading in the direction Erluzi had fled.

Soon, some villagers came out.

The man with gray hair at the head of the group was the village chief, Zhao Erhu's father, Zhao Guangding, and the second murderer who killed Shao Jiajia in his previous life.

Bah Bah!

Jiang Sen secretly spat twice, he was used to calling him Zhao Guangming.

He stormed towards them angrily, leading a group of men armed with shovels and two-pronged tools.

Erluzi, bent over and clutching his stomach, followed behind, pointing at Wang Haiyang and Jiang Sen and saying, "It was them who killed Heizi and Erhu!"

"Catch him!"

Wang Haiyang spoke up, "We are educated youth sent by the farm headquarters to help with the harvest. They tried to rob us on the road, but failed."

"He said you killed someone!" Zhao Guangming said grimly, turning to look at Erluzi. "Where are Heizi and Erhu?"

"It's at...the village entrance!"

"Send a few people to check!"

Several quick-footed individuals ran towards the village entrance.

A man next to Zhao Guangming, about the same age, took out a cigarette, pinched a small amount of tobacco from his pocket, rolled it up, licked it with his tongue, stuck the edge to the cigarette, pinched off the tip, and lit it.

He took a puff, squinted at Jiang Sen and Wang Haiyang, and said to Zhao Guangming, "Everyone in the village knows what kind of person Erluzi is. You can't trust him. If he wrongs an educated youth, he can report you to the team headquarters, and things will get really messed up!"

The only one who openly contradicted the village chief was Sun Wenge, the village secretary, who was also the head of another major family in the village.

Zhao Guangming was furious and yelled at him, "Are you siding with outsiders?"

"The truth must be investigated thoroughly. You saw them kill someone? There was no blood on them, their clothes weren't disheveled, so where is the person? Who did they kill? I told you, Erluzi is unreliable, but you can't just listen to all his nonsense!"

"you……"

"Uncle Sun, they really killed people!" Erluzi cried out anxiously. "I saw it with my own eyes. Look at me, they kicked me."

The two large footprints on Erluzi's chest were particularly eye-catching.

Jiang Sen wanted to laugh, but he held it in.

Wang Haiyang, however, had no such scruples.

"We killed two of them, how could we let you get away? Is there no reason left in Jiazigou?"

"We just arrived, we don't know anyone, who are we going to kill? Why are we killing them? Why don't we run away after we've killed them?"

A series of questions were asked, and many villagers hesitated.

They weren't wrong!

Besides, who is Erluzi?

There's also Hei Zi and Zhao Erhu.

Zhao Erhu is just relying on the fact that he is the village chief's son.

One of the people who ran to the village entrance returned, panting, and said, "We found Erhu and Heizi. They're both alright and unharmed."

"coax……"

A murmur arose, and Zhao Guangming's face went from red to pale, a truly fascinating sight.

He turned around and raised his hand to slap her, "You little brat, you dare to fool me? I'll break your legs!"

"Ouch!"

Erluzi covered his head and dodged around, finally running off towards the back mountain.

"You must be the educated youth the farm headquarters was talking about who came to help with the harvest? Welcome, welcome!" Zhao Guangming, true to his role as village chief, changed his tune quickly, smiling and extending his hand. "Come on, let's go into the village! Look at this misunderstanding, it's all because of that brat, we'll deal with him later! Come on, let's go!"

Jiang Sen and Wang Haiyang exchanged a glance and followed them into the village.

In the very center of the village stands a fairly large mud-brick house, with a sign for the village committee hanging at the entrance.

The other villagers gradually dispersed.

Only Zhao Guangming and Sun Wenge followed them in, followed by a short, stocky man in his thirties.

"He is our militia captain, Zhao Dahu."

Yo hoo!

Jiang Sen raised an eyebrow. Well, one of the murderers who killed Shao Jiajia in his previous life, Zhao Guangming's eldest son, was actually the militia captain.

All three murderers are in the picture!

The militia captain here wields considerable power.

There are few people here, and the number of militia members is also small, so they are just there to make up the numbers and put on a show.

But he had a gun.

Zhao Dahu nodded without saying anything, picked up the kettle from the stove next to him, and poured two cups of water.

"Sit down!" Zhao Guangming said politely. "Logically speaking, our village has few people, and the educated youth are not good at working. If we don't harvest the crops quickly when the heavy snow comes, they will rot in the fields. So, we applied to the brigade."

After saying this, he stopped. Jiang Sen knew that he would probably say "but" next.

“However, the village and the educated youth have always calculated work points separately, but you were applied for by our village, so it's not appropriate to send you to the educated youth settlement…”

His meaning was clear: he wanted the two of them to help the village with the harvest.

Sun Wenge kept his eyes drooping, rolled a cigarette, licked it with his tongue until it stuck to the edge, stubbed it out, lit it with a match, and took a puff.

It seems that the act of rolling and lighting a cigarette before speaking is like a ritual, flowing smoothly like water.

After Zhao Guangming finished speaking, seeing that Jiang Sen and Wang Haiyang did not respond, he looked at Sun Wenge.

"Secretary, what do you want to say?"

Sun Wenge said, "The farm headquarters sent educated youth here, and it's not appropriate for them to stay in the village. Why don't we let them go to the educated youth settlement?"

Ok!

The two of them were contradicting each other, one saying one thing and the other saying another.

Jiang Sen had long known about the conflict between the two families. After several escalations, they finally compromised: one would become the village chief, and the other would become the party secretary, so that neither family could have absolute power.

There's also an accountant here, who should also be surnamed Sun.

Zhao Guangming knew that the man surnamed Sun couldn't say the same thing as him, so he deliberately said it first.

"Okay, I'll do as the secretary says! Da Hu, take the two educated youths to the educated youth settlement."

"Oh!" Big Tiger replied, walked out the door, and turned to look.

Jiang Sen and Wang Haiyang knew they were waiting for the two of them, so they got up and grabbed their things.

"Village Chief, Party Secretary! We're off then!"

They left the village committee with Da Hu and headed into the village.

The educated youth settlement was located at the end of the village, consisting of a few mud-brick houses.

Just as I was getting close, someone walked right towards me.

Da Hu and the others approached and said, "They are educated youth who have come to help you with the harvest!" Then they turned and left.
