The Dongfeng Brigade had been busy with heavy work recently, so after dinner, the members went straight to bed to rest.
After all, I was really tired and didn't have the energy to chat or make jokes.
The educated youth at the educated youth camp were even more exhausted. After returning to their rooms, they fell asleep directly.
No one noticed that in the darkness, a man took advantage of the night, quietly walked out of the room and went up the mountain.
No one knew what the man did, but he didn't come down the mountain until dawn.
Early in the morning, Li Mingxi was awakened by the sounds from the village while he was sleeping, and was startled.
Li Mingxi thought it was time to get up, so without thinking, she picked up the clothes at hand and put them on.
I accidentally glanced at the bedside clock and it was not yet seven o'clock.
Usually the meal at home is not ready at this time, so there is no need to get up. Thinking of this, Li Mingxi lay down and fell asleep again.
But maybe it was because he was dreaming and was woken up, Li Mingxi lay in bed for a while and found that he couldn't fall asleep at all.
In this situation, lying down would be a waste of time, so Li Mingxi simply decided not to sleep.
I got dressed and walked out of the room. As usual, I shouted towards the kitchen, "Grandma, is the meal ready?"
After waiting for a while and hearing no answer, Li Mingxi walked towards the kitchen, but there was no one in the kitchen.
So, Li Mingxi walked towards the main room again, but there was no one there either.
Li Mingxi looked at the deserted yard and felt puzzled for a moment.
Where did these people go? If they went to visit relatives, they would always leave some notes, right?
Besides, if I really went to visit relatives or go out, grandma would always tell me, but what was going on now?
Why am I the only one left at home without even a letter?
Thinking about the letter, Li Mingxi looked around quickly, but did not find any note.
Looking at the empty table in the main room, Li Mingxi suddenly panicked. She was afraid that something had really happened at home.
She was even afraid that she would lose these family members. Li Mingxi made up her mind that something must have happened at home, otherwise she would not have left in such a hurry without even leaving a letter.
Just when Li Mingxi was daydreaming, even thinking about his future life.
Out of the corner of my eye, I saw my younger brother Li Mingyi walking in from outside.
"Hey, sister, are you home? Didn't you go to the mountain?"
Looking at Li Mingxi standing in the yard, Li Mingyi was surprised.
When he went out just now, he didn't see his sister and thought she had gotten up early to watch the fun, but he didn't expect she was still at home?
When Li Mingxi heard Li Mingyi say this, he asked in confusion, "What happened on the mountain?"
Li Mingyi replied calmly, "I heard that some old object suddenly appeared on the mountain. It wasn't there yesterday. Don't you think this is miraculous?"
After a pause, he continued, "I've heard people say that it's the spirit of our ancestors appearing. Right now, some people are praying for more children!"
Li Mingxi curled her lips when she heard this, but as for the sudden appearance of things, she suspected that it did not appear suddenly at all, but was placed there intentionally.
Thinking of this, she asked aloud, "Did it really appear suddenly? What does that thing look like? Have you seen it?"
"How can that be? I can't squeeze in at all. There are a bunch of old ladies and aunties crowding in front of me!"
Speaking of not being able to see that thing, Li Mingyi still felt a little regretful.
In fact, he didn't feel any regret, he was just curious about new things.
Li Mingxi naturally understood his younger brother and knew that he was just curious. If that thing was really placed in front of him, he probably wouldn't even look at it.
He started to persuade her, "Okay, control that expression on your face. If someone didn't know you, they'd think you really liked this thing! You think I don't know you're just curious. Don't look so bitter and resentful."
Hearing Li Mingxi say this, Li Mingyi chuckled and scratched his head awkwardly.
The expression on his face just now was actually to make his sister feel sorry for him, but he didn't know that his sister saw through his purpose so quickly.
Then, Li Mingyi looked at Li Mingxi doubtfully, "Sister, don't you want to go and take a look?"
Li Mingxi refused outright, "No, there's nothing to see. Besides, who knows what that thing is? Maybe someone put it there on purpose to make the members superstitious. Then he'll report it, and then all the members will be finished."
Li Mingxi always felt that things were not that simple. He didn't know how many times everyone had been to Yueshan. Apart from the strange thunder last time, no old objects had ever appeared there.
This time, the old item suddenly appeared again. She always felt something was wrong and even sensed a hint of conspiracy.
Thinking of this, Li Mingxi asked directly, "By the way, who discovered this thing first?"
Although Li Mingyi did not see the old item, he was standing outside and heard people talking about it.
It turned out that early this morning, Li Dashu went up the mountain to chop firewood. When he came down the mountain, he saw a big guy suddenly appear on the ground.
As soon as he saw that this thing was an old item, he hurried down the mountain and wanted the team leader to report the matter to the commune.
You know, this is a big deal. Although antiques are not popular nowadays, they are still valuable!
Besides, last time they said there were antiques in Yueshan, and a group of experts came for it, but no one knew what happened later, and there was no movement.
As soon as he saw this thing that suddenly appeared, Li Dashu thought that maybe this was one of those antiques.
Who would have thought that as soon as the villagers heard that there was an antique on the mountain, they all went up the mountain to see what was going on.
It’s their Dongfeng Brigade, such a big place, but there has never been a big landlord.
As soon as they heard that there were antiques on the mountain, the members rushed over to see them!
After listening to his brother's story, Li Mingxi found something wrong. All the villagers had gone up the mountain. So, how many adults were left at home now?
Besides, according to my brother, there is a group of people in the mountains who are practicing feudal superstition. If a group of people happen to come and investigate this at this time, the whole village will be finished.
In other words, that person's purpose was not to have everyone criticized, but to make money?
As soon as this thought came to his mind, Li Mingxi felt more and more that this should be the case.
All the men in the brigade went to the mountains to watch the excitement. Those who stayed at home were either children or elderly people who had no ability to resist.
If you try to steal or rob at this time, you won't be able to get any evidence at all.
To be more serious, if some human traffickers came at this time, wouldn’t all the children in the village be in trouble?
