Chapter 297 Mutual Exploitation



Li Hongying returned to the village, planning to go deep into the mountains again today to search for treasures.

Yesterday, the sixth canyon was not even fully searched, but after what happened to Liu Aiguo, and thinking about the bloody scene last night, she felt scared from the bottom of her heart.

Even if you don't stay in the valley, it still feels creepy after dark.

What if wild boars come out during the day too?

No, she needs to find someone else to accompany her.

Finding someone can not only provide labor, but also help protect you in case of danger.

She quickly came up with someone in mind: Zhao Wensong.

Zhao Wensong really wants to get back together with her now. If she asks him to do something, he should agree.

Without hesitation, she went to the educated youth settlement to find Zhao Wensong after considering her options.

Li Hongying had previously visited Zhuang Feifei at the educated youth settlement but had never paid any attention to Zhao Wensong. Sun Guoqing asked curiously, "Comrade Li, what is your relationship with Zhao, the educated youth?"

“We are from the same village and were originally sent to the countryside together, but we were not assigned to the same production brigade.”

When Zhao Wensong came out and saw Li Hongying, he quickly called out to her. Sun Guoqing saw that they were indeed very familiar with each other, and although he had some suspicions in his heart, he didn't dare to ask any more questions.

Zhao Wensong walked up to Li Hongying and asked, "Hongying, is there something you need?"

This woman kept saying that there was no possibility of her being with him in this lifetime, but now she's obediently come looking for him.

It seems he was beaten by Liu Aiguo again.

He subconsciously looked Li Hongying up and down and saw that there was still blood on her body.

This Liu Aiguo is really ruthless, but if it weren't for that, Li Hongying wouldn't have been able to come back to him.

Li Hongying said, "Zhao Zhiqing, I have something to tell you. Let's go outside to talk."

"Okay." Zhao Wensong smiled.

The two of them arrived outside the educated youth settlement. Zhao Wensong spoke first: "Hongying, Liu Aiguo is really going too far. She can't keep hitting you. It's the best choice for you to divorce him. Don't worry, after we get married, I won't hit you anymore. I will definitely treat you well and not let you suffer any grievances. Um, have you already told Liu Aiguo about the divorce?"

Li Hongying's mind raced, and she nodded in agreement: "However, he hasn't agreed yet. I asked you to come here today to help you, and also to help myself. I know there's a great fortune in the mountains, let's go find it together."

"wealth?"

"Yes, it was more than 30 years ago. A rich man hid it there to prevent his family fortune from flowing out. I accidentally discovered this secret in a thatched hut that day. Brother Wensong, the mountain is so big. I don't know how long it would take me to find it by myself. Many hands make light work. When we find the treasure, we can share it."

Zhao Wensong knew immediately that this was fantastic news.

"Hongying, are you sure this is true?"

"Of course it's true, Brother Wensong. I've already gone to look for it myself, but my abilities are limited. I'm telling you this because I trust you."

Zhao Wensong wasn't stupid. Li Hongying had previously ignored him, but now that she was willing to share her treasure with him, she must need him.

It's okay, he also has a chance to get that treasure, it's a win-win situation for them.

“Hongying, I really want to help you, but you know I still like you. I want to hear you promise me that you will marry me after you divorce Liu Aiguo.”

"Okay, Brother Wensong, I promise you."

Li Hongying agreed readily, saying that once she found the bloodstone necklace, she would definitely kick you far, far away.

Zhao Wensong didn't really care much anymore. After all, helping Li Hongying was also helping himself. Once he got the treasure, he wouldn't have to worry about finding women.

Of course, it would be best if Li Hongying were readily available.

When are we going?

"Let's do it now. I haven't divorced Liu Aiguo yet, and to outsiders we're just fellow villagers, so we can't go up the mountain together. Here's what we'll do: I'll give you the address, and we'll split up and meet up when we get there."

"good."

After making some plans, the two split up and went their separate ways.

Two hours later, they met in the Sixth Valley.

But after a whole day of searching, they found nothing and had to go home disappointed.

Five or six days passed in the blink of an eye. Li Hongying and Zhao Wensong secretly went up the mountain every day to look for the treasure, but as before, they found nothing.

Similarly, on Luo Jingyan's side, Black Tiger and Fatty Tiger never gave up searching for the bloodstone necklace. In the past few days, the two of them had searched the entire mountain, but they got the same result as Li Hongying.

"Master, it seems that the necklace is not in the mountains at all. So, how should we continue our search?" Black Tiger asked Luo Jingyan, raising its little head.

Luo Jingyan sighed softly: "If it's not true, then forget about it. From today onwards, forget about it. Let's continue doing what we used to do, as if this never happened, and go back to our old lives."

Black Tiger was naturally unwilling to accept this, as it had never failed so miserably before, despite being a skilled treasure hunter.

Luo Jingyan seemed to read its mind. "Black Tiger, the necklace isn't on the mountain. First, Zhuang Feifei hid it somewhere else, which we can't know. Second, even if it was picked up, don't think too much about it. We don't have that kind of space, but we still live our lives as usual."

"Okay, Master, then I won't worry about the necklace anymore. I'm going to go into your space and play with Fat Tiger."

"Go."

Inside the space, two cats chase each other in the orchard, looking relaxed and carefree.

After these past few days of development, the truth about Liu Aiguo's injury could no longer be kept secret. Several of his relatives who had rescued him from the mountain had loose lips, and they revealed the whole story of Liu Aiguo's injury while hunting, which quickly spread throughout the entire village.
