On her first day back at school after the holiday, Su Tian was quite busy.

After school in the afternoon, I was busy in the office until 7 p.m.

She has to finish preparing lessons, grading homework, and setting exam questions all today.

It was finally finished, and it was already 7 p.m.

By this time, the night sky over Songjia Village was clear and the stars were few, with the pale moonlight shining on the quiet campus.

Su Tian locked the door, turned around, and left the school gate.

She walked along the quiet path, flashlight in hand.

Villagers would close their doors as soon as it got dark to prevent rats from getting into their houses.

When Su Tian walked to the drying ground, she suddenly noticed that there were lights on the other side of the drying ground as well.

"Hey, who's there so late? And there are several shadows on the ground."

As Su Tian muttered to herself, she quietly approached the warehouse. Could it be the person guarding the warehouse?

I've never heard of anyone guarding a warehouse at night. Who could it be?

The closer Su Tian got to the warehouse, the more she noticed those people doing something sneaky.

They kept glancing left and right, were they thieves?

Hmph... If that's true, I'm in for a rough time tonight.

Su Tian moved closer and hid herself in the hay.

It turns out that the three people were plotting to steal grain. Was grain really that easy to steal?

At this moment, one of them spoke up, "Big Dog, are you sure the Song family really has grain?"

"Yes, during the typhoon, Songjia Village was the one that managed to harvest quickly and dry the crops well."

Moreover, all the grain they delivered to the state was up to standard, and there was even a large surplus.

Other villages were slow to harvest, and what they managed to gather couldn't be dried properly, so it all sprouted.

"We have grain, but we don't know how to open this lock. How are we supposed to move the grain? Wouldn't we have worked for nothing?"

"Ma Liu, don't say discouraging things. If you can't drive it, didn't we bring a hammer with us?"

"Smash it with a sledgehammer, I refuse to believe we can't open this broken door."

"Bang bang bang..."

Su Tian discovered that the man had been smashing the lock for several minutes but still couldn't open it.

"This is really hard to smash, what should we do?"

"Big dog, move aside, let me try."

This guy, Ma Liu, took the iron hammer from the big dog and smashed it for five minutes but still couldn't break it open.

"Where did they buy these locks in Songjia Village? We can't seem to break them."

Ma Liu angrily threw the hammer on the ground, and instantly it made a loud "bang".

Su Tian covered her mouth and chuckled secretly when she suddenly felt hungry.

He quickly took out some snacks from his spatial storage and ate them, and also drank several mouthfuls of spiritual spring water.

She discovered that these people were all idiots; they didn't know how to pick locks, so they tried to break them open with hammers, but the hammers couldn't break them open on their own.

Half an hour later, the three men threw down the hammer and sat on the ground, panting.

"Why don't we go back? We can't break this lock."

"That's right, Big Dog, Ma Liu, I was wondering why Songjia Village was so careless, not sending anyone to guard the warehouse."

In other villages, someone keeps watch at night, but not in Songjia Village. Apparently, the locks are incredibly strong.

"But we've already come all this way, we're not willing to go back like this."

"We're out of food at home, eating whatever we can find," Li Er said, distressed.

"How about we go dig up some sweet potatoes in the field? The sweet potatoes in Songjia Village are huge."

"Big Dog is right. Let's hurry up and dig. Maybe we can dig up dozens of kilograms in an hour."

Li Er looked at Ma Liu excitedly, wishing he could fly over right now and dig up all the sweet potatoes in Songjia Village.

“Eating sweet potatoes every day is too much of a heart ache. It makes my stomach uncomfortable, and I have to poop several times a day. I’ve used enough bamboo strips to wipe my bottom to fill a whole bundle,” Ma Liu said reluctantly.

"But what can we do if we can't break the lock? Let's go, let's dig it up first, otherwise we won't even find a sweet potato."

Heh, trying to leave? Let me scare you all first, hehe...

After the three finished discussing, they picked up the hammer and were about to stand up.

Su Tian quickly let her hair down and shone a flashlight on herself.

Hiding quietly behind the three men, she said in a sinister tone, "Where are you three young masters going? Take this old woman with you."

The three immediately turned around and saw a strange-eyed monster, a woman with a big tongue and long hair.

In an instant, the three of them fainted from fright.

"Tch, you're such cowards, yet you dare to steal at night. You're really something."

Su Tian kicked them a few times as she spoke.

The drying ground was close to the village chief's house, so Su Tian quickly walked to the village chief's house to call him to handle the situation.

"Bang bang bang..."

As soon as there was a knock on the door, Liu Chunni walked to the door curiously. "Who is it?"

"It's me, Aunt Chunni."

"Hey, Su Tian, ​​you're back? Oh dear, what brings you here so late?"

"Aunt Chunni, where is the village chief? Something terrible has happened in the village. Thieves have come to steal our grain."

"What? Thieves have come to steal our grain!" Liu Chunni's voice rang out.

Hearing Liu Chunni's voice, the village chief rushed out and said anxiously, "Su Zhiqing, what did you just say? A thief came to steal grain? From the fields or the warehouse?"

"Village chief, these thieves are trying to steal from the warehouse. They're breaking the lock, and..."

"What? The lock has been broken? Quick, call for help! A thief has broken the lock and is stealing our grain!"

Before Su Tian could finish speaking, the village chief hurriedly picked up an iron basin and started hitting it hard with a stick.

"Get up! Come out! There's a thief stealing grain in the threshing ground! Go and catch him!"

The village chief ran and shouted loudly. When the nearby villagers heard him, they all grabbed fire sticks and carrying poles and ran out of their homes.

"Thieves, where are the thieves? Is stealing grain something we should be doing? Kill them, it's outrageous!" Everyone echoed.
