"Maybe one day you'll have a chance, right?"
But opportunities are not so easily obtained. Sangsang thought it was just Li Sheng comforting her out of pity.
But it's impossible for Li Sheng to use his own money to help them. He's also short of money. At most, he can only help the old man Ada who saved him and Sangsang's family. He can't help the rest of the people.
He's neither the Virgin Mary nor Guanyin Bodhisattva; he can barely take care of himself, so how could he have the mind to meddle in such matters?
However, he now has his own live streaming account and so many fans. Once the account is in his own hands, he can do something about it.
Documenting this forgotten village through video will bring it to the public eye. It might cost a little money and involve buying more traffic, but it will attract attention from the outside world. Eventually, those who can truly help them will come.
This is how I repay their life-saving kindness.
Fortunately, before him, all the people who had been unregistered and honest had never actually trafficked women into the country to be their wives; otherwise, he would have been powerless to help.
That evening, Li Sheng and Naituan had an extra lavish meal, a special kind of "pig-killing feast," which wasn't complicated to cook but was exceptionally fragrant.
Most of the other people's bowls contained offal, while only Li Sheng and Nai Tuan's bowls contained real pork.
The whole pig was placed on a rack and slowly smoked, with honey brushed on it from time to time.
He didn't share the pig with everyone; he planned to use it for Li Sheng and Sang Sang's wedding banquet. Everyone would eat together then, and any leftovers would be shared.
Get things done first, otherwise I won't feel at ease.
As more and more red flowers were pasted up in the room, Li Sheng became increasingly worried.
Several times when he tried to use Sangsang as a starting point to do ideological work, the old man Adana would directly call Sangsang away, and now the old man even feeds him himself.
He wasn't given a chance to say anything. Do you know what it feels like for a grandmother to feed her grandson? One bite after another, and if he chewed too slowly, she would just shove the food into his mouth whenever he opened it.
He eats a bowl the size of his face at every meal, a full bowl, and if he can't finish it, he glares at him.
This is truly a blessing earned through eight lifetimes of good deeds.
On the evening of the third day, he was half-forced to wear a red floral dress. The gong players, drummers, and suona players had already gathered together. Outside, Sangsang, dressed in a floral dress, looked at him with guilt.
Even the little girl was dressed in a peach-colored floral dress and had a hair accessory. Li Sheng's face almost turned black. Wasn't she supposed to come and pick him up within three days? He hadn't even seen a ghost.
At this moment, in the desolate mountains, three men wearing windbreakers were moving through the forest.
The man in the lead was holding a small computer, about the size of a palm. The red dot on the screen showed Li Sheng's location.
Yamaki: "We're almost there. What kind of place is this? The boss even sent us to pick up this person in person."
The man with the buzz cut, who was a little further back, looked at the firelight in the distance and, by the light, could see the houses, buildings, and the situation. He sighed, "What era is this? There are still places like this. If you didn't know better, you'd think you'd encountered some kind of savage tribe."
The other person had fallen several times and looked rather disheveled carrying two large bags: "Stop dawdling and hurry up and find someone."
The three men, their faces contorted in distress, ventured into the small mountain village. The deeper they went, the more chills ran down their spines. As they got closer, they realized that there were people there, but surprisingly, there was no electricity!
The shadows cast by the firelight were mostly of elderly people, who were banging drums and gongs around a large wild boar. It looked eerie, as if they had encountered a ghost.
"Team leader, are these people? Are we seeing ghosts? It looks so eerie."
The other two were already trembling with fear and dared not go any further. Fortunately, Yamaki was a team leader after all, and he had some brains and courage.
Looking at the locator in his hand, which was very accurate with an error of no more than ten centimeters, he realized that the person they were looking for was right there in the firelight.
Furthermore, he firmly believed in Marxism, that there could be no ghosts in this world, that there absolutely were no ghosts, and that even if there were ghosts, he was not afraid. He didn't know about the two of them, but he was a virgin, and a virgin's yang energy was strong, so he wasn't afraid of ghosts.
"Let's go! Three grown men are nothing to be afraid of."
The village had already adorned Li Sheng's head with a big red flower. At this moment, he was filled with despair and thought he was destined to go through this absurd ordeal. Just then, his heroes finally arrived to rescue him, wearing their down jackets.
"Mr. Li!"
To bolster his courage, Yamaki shouted loudly, and the next second everyone's attention was focused on the three new young men.
Shock! Amazement! Joy! The ancestral graves are emitting auspicious smoke.
Li Sheng grinned widely: "You've finally arrived! Peach Blossom Village welcomes you. Come on, let's become the village's men who will never have to worry about food or clothing. You can choose any of the women here, one for each of you, don't be greedy!"
The women here are either mothers or daughters. Although they've been saying they want to find a partner since they were born, they just can't bring themselves to do it now.
"Thank you for your kindness, we came here to..."
Before they could finish speaking, the three of them were surrounded. Ada was thinking about how to divide the spoils when he saw this situation, so the three of them immediately adopted a defensive stance.
Li Sheng quickly explained to Sang Sang, "These are my friends who came to pick me up, not outsiders. Please ask Grandpa to be more polite, so as not to scare my friends."
Is Sheng-ge leaving? Sang-sang felt very sad at the thought. She thought that after the wedding tonight, Sheng-ge would stay and be her man. But it turns out he can't.
Although she was extremely sad, she still told her grandfather everything Li Sheng had to say without holding back.
Upon hearing that it was Li Sheng's friend, Grandpa told everyone to put away their tools and asked Sang Sang to tell Li Sheng his thoughts.
Sangsang's smile was more like a grimace: "Grandpa said he'd keep them as sons-in-law. The tallest one will go to Aunt Moga, the fairest one to Aunt Kehua, and the one who looks the youngest to Xiangxiang."
Mountain wood? ? ? ? ?
What the hell? What happened? They've been kidnapped and are being forced to be forced into marriage with the bandits.
Pooh!
Bandit's man!
Wenqing was the youngest among them, and she felt a little excited when she heard that the kind of drama that happened in TV series could happen to her.
"Isn't this like a free wife being delivered to your door, and she's even someone you've raised?"
Another man cursed directly: "Look at those two aunties, they're too big for my mother, they'd be more like my grandma. If they were my wives, I'd rather die on the spot."
Shanmu remained calm: "You must be Mr. Li? Hello, I'm here to pick you up. My name is Shanmu, and I'd like to know our current situation."
Mr. Li shrugged: "It's the situation you're seeing."
Yamaki: "...".
"So what can we do now? What's your idea?"
Don't be fooled by Shanmu's calm demeanor; inside, he's trembling like a leaf. This is worse than death for him. If he's lucky enough to get back this time, he'll have to make the boss pay him both mental and physical compensation.
