Reborn in a virtual world, before the house was taken away

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Lü Yulan had no choice but to hand over the 30 yuan and agree to apologize to the brigade members after they returned from their training as commune health workers.

However, judging from her expression, she was even more heartbroken than if her parents had died. Feng Qingqing secretly rejoiced, thinking, "Serves you right for being so smug."

After the brigade cadres returned, the educated youth looked at Feng Qingqing and the other woman with much closer eyes than before.

Feng Qingqing did this not because she hoped the educated youth would be grateful to her, but because she hoped not to be targeted and could simply maintain a semblance of harmony.

Feng Qingqing had already eaten dinner when she heard Hu Fangming exclaim "Ah!" Feng Qingqing turned around and saw Hu Fangming lifting the pot lid and making a sound as he saw the noodles clump together. But that didn't stop her from eating the noodles quickly; she slurped them down and finished them in no time.

Feng Qingqing ignored the strange looks from others and went about her business. After a quick wash, she went to bed. After all that commotion, she wanted to lie down and rest for a while.

She observed for a moment and realized that the Jiang siblings hadn't returned yet. About half an hour later, when everyone else in the house was almost asleep, Feng Qingqing finally heard Jiang Yun's footsteps as he returned.

Feng Qingqing guessed that since Jiang Yun had returned, the other three should have already set off from the cave with their belongings.

But she wasn't in a hurry. First, they had saved up quite a bit of time and had a lot of stuff, and it was already dark, so it would take some time to come down from the mountain. Second, the brigade was neither far nor close to the commune. It would take Feng Qingqing about 50 minutes to walk briskly by herself, let alone with so much stuff they were carrying.

After a flurry of rustling noises, the sound of Jiang Yun slowly climbing into the pit could be heard, and after a while, there was no more noise.

Feng Qingqing pondered that this trip was different from the past, and she wouldn't be back so soon. To be on the safe side, she exchanged for a sleeping potion with a shorter duration from her spatial storage. This potion only lasted for two hours, but that was enough for Feng Qingqing.

Because it was still quite early, Feng Qingqing waited for about an hour before quietly getting up, covering her mouth and nose, and spraying the sleeping pills into their room. About five minutes later, Feng Qingqing nimbly emerged from the educated youth compound. Afterward, she cautiously crouched outside the compound for about five minutes before quickly heading towards the direction the Jiang brothers had taken to the commune.

At this moment, the sky was pitch black and all was quiet, but Feng Qingqing felt no fear. She had only one thought: to get to the place she had set out beforehand as quickly as possible.

It turned out that she had overheard a conversation among the group by the cave the night before. They had decided to take advantage of the opportunity to study at the commune and send all the goods they had received in the past few days to the home of one of Xiong Baoguo's friends. His friend would go out to hide for one night and would give him some benefits in return. Since Xiong Baoguo was the youngest son of the brigade leader and often hung out with a few cronies at the commune, that's how the place to store the goods was decided.

After the goods were delivered to his friend's house, Xiong Baoguo stayed behind to guard them, while the two Jiang brothers returned the way they came. The next day, the Jiang brothers went back to the commune, whereupon they made an excuse to ask for half a day's leave due to illness, and then sold the goods.

Before setting off, Feng Qingqing had already planned the route. Moreover, considering that although she was strong, she lacked practical experience, she made two arrangements for safety.

First, we need to figure out their route and set up a simple ambush along their path. This operation is relatively simple, as there is only one main road to the commune.

Secondly, Feng Qingqing had bought a small stun gun in the space shop beforehand, using up all her remaining points. It seems she'll have to hurry up and earn more points after she gets back; only with points will Feng Qingqing feel confident in what she does.

Although Feng Qingqing traveled quickly, her movements were light and agile, and she arrived at her pre-arranged location in about twenty minutes. Feng Qingqing checked the time and calculated their journey and the things they were carrying; they still had time.

No more overthinking, let's get started.

The location she chose was a corner, a necessary route from the mountain to the main road. Her method was simple: the corner wasn't large, so she placed some pebbles of varying sizes there. Those people were carrying things, and even if they had flashlights, they probably wouldn't have the hands to turn them on. Besides, people usually aren't too careful or on guard when they're on familiar routes.

After arriving at the destination, Feng Qingqing released all the pebbles she had collected in advance from her space. There were quite a few, about a hundred of them of various sizes. She arranged the pebbles in a simple manner to ensure that they could step on them after they came down.

After doing all this, Feng Qingqing walked to the side of the road and released a large rock, more than half a person tall, from her space. This was a method she had thought of when considering the terrain. After all, she wanted to get close to them as soon as possible without being discovered, but there really wasn't a suitable place to hide. So she had no choice but to create her own conditions.

After everything was ready, Feng Qingqing covered her head and face, leaving only her eyes exposed, just in case she was recognized. She then leaned against a large rock and waited quietly.

Tonight, the night sky is pitch black, without a single moonlight. It's the perfect time to kill and plunder, Feng Qingqing thought to herself, bored.

About ten minutes later, Feng Qingqing heard heavy footsteps coming from afar, accompanied by several male voices.

Feng Qingqing's expression hardened, her whole body tensed, and she gripped the stun gun she had taken out of her spatial storage tightly with both hands.

Since it was her first time doing this, Feng Qingqing was a little nervous. Her heart felt like it was going to jump out of her throat. She took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.

I had imagined it many times, and I had tried operating the stun gun many times before they arrived, so I was somewhat confident.

"Damn it, this is too heavy! It's killing me! I can't take it anymore, I need to rest."

This is the voice of Jiang Hongjun.

"Alright, it's only been a short time. How many times have you said you couldn't go on? Can't you hold on a little longer? We've even invested my sister's savings this time, so we can't afford any mistakes."

It's rare to hear Jiang Hongwei speak such a long sentence. Well, after being in the countryside for so long, he knows the hardship of rural people who have no money.

Although Jiang Hongjun didn't loudly refute, he muttered something under his breath, which Feng Qingqing didn't hear.

Suddenly another male voice interrupted:

“Red Army, if you’re really tired, move some things for me to carry. I’m not tired, I can still manage.”

But you could tell from his panting that what he said was true. There was nothing Xiong Baoguo could do. Although he was also very tired, he had no choice but to fawn over the girl because she adored him.

But then Jiang Hongwei rebuked him:

“Red Army, the country already has enough. You can carry what you’re carrying yourself.”

After that, no other voices were heard, but the footsteps grew closer.
