The villagers turned around and looked at Yu Xifeng.
At this juncture, Yu Xifeng actually broke through the Tangjiatun sentry post and reached the opposite side.
Yu Xifeng is an outsider.
The villagers could easily associate the child's disappearance with her.
Yu Xifeng stood there with no expression on his face.
Ji Jia had a slight guilty look on his face: "I have no ill intentions, I just felt a little worried about Mom being alone at home. When I went to look for her, I saw you. I believe you have nothing to do with Tang Changsheng's disappearance."
Before Yu Xifeng could speak, Village Chief Liu spoke first: "Ji Jia, where are you from?"
Ji Jia turned to Village Chief Liu and said, “I came from Jihai City.”
"It's very far away, much farther than Yu Xifeng, Zhang Qiu and the others." said Village Chief Liu.
Ji Jia smiled bitterly: "Yes, I almost lost my life. Fortunately, my mother was willing to take me in."
He looked at Old Lady Lu with gratitude, his eyes full of sincerity.
Village chief Liu stood up and crushed the soil around his feet.
This is also a habit of smokers. They throw the unsmoked cigarette on the ground and put it out with their feet.
Yu Xifeng's heart moved, she reached into her pocket, took out a cigarette from her inner pocket and handed it over.
As soon as this cigarette came out, many people's eyes lit up.
Village Chief Liu touched it and said: "This is a good thing, you keep it."
Yu Xifeng said: "We don't smoke, so we don't need it."
Village Chief Liu said, "Okay, I'll keep it. I'll reward anyone who makes a contribution to the village."
After putting away the cigarette, Village Chief Liu turned to the Ji family and said, "You have only been here for less than a day. Ji family, tell me, who told you that the slope is called Dingyue Slope?"
When the name Dingyuepo came out, the villagers were a little confused.
Yu Xifeng was also a little confused, but she observed the expressions on people's faces and stood there without saying anything.
The Ji family also looked at a loss: "My mother told me so."
"That slope has always been called Tiangui Road in the village. I had just arrived at that time and didn't understand the local dialect. I also had a lot of resistance to Tangjiatun. The higher authorities wanted to build a road for the village, but I only took a quick look and asked a question, and they gave me this weird name."
Village Chief Liu was a little embarrassed: "I didn't do my job well."
Today, Village Chief Liu’s accent blends seamlessly into the Tangjiatun area.
When you pronounce the word "Zhong Tiangui", it does sound a bit like the word "Dingyue".
But the tone goes in a completely different direction.
The emphasis of Dingyue is on the word "ding", while the emphasis of Tiangui is on the second word.
It makes little difference in dialects, but it is a world of difference in Mandarin.
"You speak Mandarin much better than I do," Village Chief Liu continued, "People in the village have always called it 'Tiangui'. Your mother is old and can't even pronounce the word 'Dingyue'.
Knowing that place is called Dingyuepo means that you are either an official or a member of the Huofeng Society across the street."
Yu Xifeng also thought about it.
She saw the name Dingyuepo on an administrative map.
Before the natural disaster, she downloaded almost all the maps she could, and compared them together while traveling.
Someone who has come from afar and has gone through a lot of hardships to get here would not know the name of such a small slope.
Unless there is another purpose.
Yu Xifeng came to look for the military factory.
What about the Ji family?
The smile on Ji Jia's face froze for a moment, and he responded quickly: "I've seen the map here. If you want to go to the base in the north, this is the only way."
Yu Xifeng made the final decision: "Your last name is Guan."
Guan Qingji, who died in Jiangshan, also came from Jihai City.
This time, Ji's face really changed.
In just a moment, his eyes changed from clear to sinister.
The hibiscus-like face was slightly distorted.
Such a sudden change in expression was enough for everyone to see his flaws.
What a coincidence, Yu Xifeng felt that Guan was not a good person.
And everyone in Tangjiatun deeply hates the surname Guan.
Because the president of Huofeng Society is named Guan.
Yoshika quickly drew his gun.
Yu Xifeng acted faster than him.
The Ji family pulled Old Lady Lu in front of them. For a thousandth of a second, Yu Xifeng thought of the candy that had solidified and then melted.
Her bullet didn't fire.
To the east, flames rose.
From afar, voices shouted: "Fire, fire."
Village Chief Liu only glanced in the direction and almost rushed out. He said in a trembling voice: "The granary is on fire, put out the fire quickly."
Taking advantage of this gap, the Ji family hid in the darkness.
Old Mrs. Lu was thrown away like a piece of rag and onto the ground.
Yu Xifeng fired two shots in succession and missed.
Ji Jia was an expert and the stray bullet failed to hit him.
Yu Xifeng did not chase after him. The night was dark and suffocating.
Yu Xifeng fired a signal gun.
The sound of explosions cut through the night.
This night was too chaotic and Yu Xifeng couldn't go back for a while. This signal gun was to remind Zhang Qiu to be careful.
Everyone ran to the granary, looking for water and rescuing food.
This year's seeds have just been sown into the ground, and it is still unknown whether there will be a harvest.
If the granary is gone, the food distributed to each person can only last for half a month at most.
The village will become a living hell.
Yu Xifeng stared at the darkness for a long time, and finally his eyes fell on Old Lady Lu.
Old Mrs. Lu had a hollow look in her eyes as she murmured to her son.
She's just an old person who has gone mad.
At times like this, no one cared about her.
The same goes for Tang Feng who has disappeared. No one has the spare time to look for him.
