"Iron Boy, don't get excited! Don't get excited! It's all a misunderstanding. Wu Dachun went into the mountains, and the people who came back said he was trapped by snakes. That's why Dachun's mother got so anxious that she started talking nonsense!"
When the captain saw Ren Jingxiao, he felt like he had seen a savior. Now Wu Dachun was saved.
"Hurry, Tiewazi, Dachun is waiting!" The team leader wanted to pull him away, but was a little afraid of the tiger next to him.
"Yes, go and save my son!" Wu Dachun's mother jumped up from the ground and stopped crying.
"You come here to cause trouble for my partner, and you still want me to save him? Captain, are you out of your mind?"
Ren Jingxiao let go of Ningxia, asked Dapao to guard the side, picked up Wu Dachun's mother at the door and threw her out.
The man was a bit older, so Ren Jingxiao controlled his strength. He didn't have the idea of not hitting women or protecting the weak. He only had two kinds of people in his eyes: Xia Xia and others.
No one dared to say a word, not even to look at Ren Jingxiao.
"Iron boy, don't do it, don't do it!" The captain was no longer afraid and hurriedly stopped Ren Jingxiao.
"She really didn't mean it. Dachun was in trouble, and she was too anxious and said a few unpleasant things. Look, isn't Ning Zhiqing just being nice?"
"Is she fine? Didn't you see that Xia Xia was scared?" Ren Jingxiao thought that if Xia Xia lost a hair, he would beat up everyone and let Dapao squat in front of their house at night.
Captain: “…”
"Okay, she was wrong. Ning Zhiqing, please be kind and forgive her for how much she loves her son."
"Ning Zhiqing, please persuade Tiewazi to go and save the people. We can't wait any longer."
The team leader turned his gaze to Ningxia, hoping that this educated youth would be sensible.
"What does it have to do with me? He's her son, not mine. I don't have amnesia. I remember every word she said to me!"
Ningxia is a person who never suffers any loss. Moreover, she just heard that the man was trapped by a python. Call her selfish or cowardly, she would not persuade Ren Jingxiao to save people for a stranger.
They insisted that Wu Dachun's mother had cursed people, and since she refused to forgive them, they could do nothing about it. She was the one who offended people, and they didn't dare to do anything to Ren Jingxiao.
"Ren Jingxiao is also a human being. Just because you are afraid of snakes, he is not? If you have the time and energy to do this, why don't you go up the mountain and rescue him?" Ningxia sneered and looked at everyone.
The captain was stunned for a moment, opened his mouth again and again but couldn't say anything.
"If you want Ren Jingxiao to go, that's fine. No one can escape. Every household must send one person to go up the mountain together. Life and death are in the hands of fate. No one should blame anyone else. Do you dare?"
"Of course, you have more people and can force Ren Jingxiao to go up the mountain. But do you think he will still take you up the mountain to make money? I just want to ask you, are you willing to do that?"
"Don't try to threaten him with me. At worst, I can stay with him on the mountain. Or we can go to another brigade. I think they'll welcome us! What do you think?"
With every word Ningxia spoke, the smile on her face grew wider. It was clearly a delight to the eyes, but no one dared to look directly at her.
How many people would sacrifice themselves for others? Look at them, when their flesh is cut, isn't it painful for everyone?
"You can't do this! You are going to watch Dachun die! Secretary, Dachun is your cousin, the team leader, and Dachun's wife is in the same team as your wife. How can you bear to watch him lose his life like this?"
Wu Dachun's mother looked at everyone and saw that they were silent. What else was there to understand? What a bunch of cold-blooded people!
"It's been so long? Dachun might have already... It would be a waste of time for us to go!" Wang Mazi, who had just recovered from coming down the mountain, refused to agree when he heard that every family had to send someone back into the mountain!
"We didn't intend to go to the mountain. It was Dachun who took the job and asked a few of us to go together. We were supposed to go back after collecting firewood. But Dachun got greedy and wanted to hunt some game, so he got himself killed. Now we can't blame anyone else."
The more Wang Mazi spoke, the more he felt that Wu Dachun deserved it. He didn't want to go up the mountain again, not even in his lifetime.
After hearing what Wang Mazi said, everyone started to curse Wu Dachun for asking for death, saying that it was his own fault. No one suggested going up the mountain to take a look.
"Report to the police!" Ningxia saw the captain frowning in embarrassment and spoke slowly.
"Yes, report to the police!" The branch secretary clapped his hands, and without caring whether the team leader agreed or not, he hurriedly harnessed the ox cart and left.
It wasn't until the evening that the public security officers returned to the brigade with Wu Dachun. Several of the officers were injured, and it was clear they had run into the big guys in the mountains.
"You don't know, Dachun was torn into two pieces by the snake!"
"It's a blessing that it wasn't eaten up. At least it's left intact!"
"Luckily we didn't go! The police officers all had weapons in their hands, and you can see they were all covered in blood! If someone from our family had gone there, would they have come back alive?"
"Poor Dachunniang! How will this family live in the future?"
Among the team members, some were happy, some were regretful, and some were gloating!
Except for Wu Dachun's youngest son who could not walk yet, everyone else in his family burst into tears. Wu Dachun's mother even fainted several times from crying.
"Captain, our family depends on Dachun. How can we live?" Wu Dachun's mother looked at the whole family and choked with sorrow.
They were a group of people going up the mountain together, so why did her Dachun get into trouble while everyone else was fine?
"My son Dachun got into trouble because he was collecting firewood for everyone. The team can't just ignore us, an orphan and a widow!" Wu Dachun's mother anxiously pulled the team leader, wanting a guarantee regardless of the consequences.
