The two dragged the worm back. This time they had made some gains, but the person they hired to buy it was a shady character.
They always try to lower the price; if you sold it on the black market, it definitely wouldn't be this price.
The big guys are too conspicuous, so they don't dare to trade on the black market for fear of being targeted.
The two chatted leisurely along the way, completely unaware of the few little tails following behind them.
When the two entered a grove of trees, they climbed into a grave, which terrified Bingzi and the others.
If Wei Baichuan hadn't glared at them, they probably would have screamed.
"Brother Chuan... Brother Chuan, where did they go? Did we see a ghost?"
Not to mention Bingzi, even Huzi was almost scared to tears. The eeriness of the night was one thing, but these people come here all the time and aren't afraid at all.
But that doesn't mean they're not afraid of things crawling out of graves.
“They are human beings, they have shadows.” Wei Baichuan was also stunned for a moment when he saw them enter the grave.
No wonder no one has discovered them all these years. Even if someone did, they would be terrified, thinking they'd seen a ghost.
If he hadn't seen them before, he would have been terrified today.
"Is...is there?" Bingzi thought that Brother Chuan was really amazing. Even at this moment, he could still be so calm and even noticed their shadows.
"Yes," Wei Baichuan gave them a positive answer.
“These people are definitely not simple. They just said they’ve hunted all the prey.”
"They're still hiding here, saying it's a gift for someone. These people are definitely suspicious."
Wei Baichuan analyzed the situation carefully. If he hadn't known that Bingzi and the others were too upright, he wouldn't have explained things so clearly step by step.
"Yes, yes, Brother Chuan is right." Bingzi and the others were already so frightened that they were completely at a loss.
Wei Baichuan: "..." I can't carry him, I can't carry him at all.
He had assumed they would follow him to see what was going on, but instead they just huddled there watching him nervously.
Let alone following them to take a look, they probably haven't even come to their senses yet.
"Why are they hiding here so clandestinely? Could they be spies?"
Tiger noticed that Brother Chuan was also silent, and his eyes widened as if he had discovered something.
Wei Baichuan paused for a moment, then thought, "Well, it's not impossible to think about it this way."
"Tiger is right. Let's hurry back and find a way to tell the captain and the others." Bingzi thought Tiger made sense; otherwise, who would be hiding in this place?
Everyone looked flustered. Wei Baichuan remained silent, seeing their anxious expressions, and could only keep quiet.
At least they thought of going back to find the brigade leader.
"Brother Chuan, we need to hurry back and tell the captain what to do if those guys escape?" Bingzi asked, turning around when he saw that Brother Chuan was silent.
“Okay, but we can’t go and say it now. It’s so late in the mountains, and we won’t be able to explain it clearly if people ask us. Let’s wait until tomorrow morning.”
"It would be best to send someone to say that they discovered it by accident." Wei Baichuan's words brought the group to their senses.
Yes, they can't talk about what's going on in the mountains. Although everyone sneaks into the mountains, it can't be done openly.
Anything hunted in the mountains must be handed over. If they go and say it now, wouldn't that be an admission of guilt?
"Okay, Tiger, you go and tell them tomorrow that the autumn harvest is over and there's not much work for the time being. Since you're young, just say you found it on the mountain while you were playing."
"Then they led the captain and the others to find them, and we followed them."
Bingzi thought Chuan Ge was right. They couldn't all tell him. Hu Zi was young, and now that the autumn harvest was over, many children were looking for wild fruits in the mountains.
Tiger is inconspicuous, so when he takes the captain there, they can follow behind.
The captain will definitely discover the problem and report it to his superiors, at which point they will be able to retire successfully.
"I...I'm scared." Tiger was the youngest and the most timid among them.
"What are you afraid of? We're all with you. Just tell the captain that you saw a few people hiding here when you went into the mountains."
“We’re all grown up now. If we say we’re going up the mountain to find wild fruits or something, no one will believe us.” Bingzi and the others coaxed Huzi.
When the group returned, Tiger had already nodded in agreement.
When Wei Baichuan returned home and Su asked him about it, he didn't even know if the matter had been resolved.
Seeing how flustered they were, he felt it was very unreliable.
"Whether they are reliable or not, as long as the brigade leader finds those people in the mountains, that's fine."
When Su Ti heard Wei Baichuan say that Bingzi and the others had started to suspect spies, he also felt that their imaginations were running wild.
But then again, who would have thought that the person who should have died was still alive and had several children?
Wei Baichuan nodded. That was the only way he could comfort himself. What else could he do?
He didn't know that Bingzi and the others were even more anxious than he was. They had just gotten up that morning and hadn't even gone to work in the fields yet.
Tiger rushed over, saying he went into the mountains to find fruit and saw several people hiding there.
Wei Baichuan had originally planned to go to another brigade with Su Ti, but he deliberately didn't go today, wanting to wait until they resolved the matter before making any decisions.
He didn't expect that before he even started working, things would start commotion over there. Hearing Hu Zi's hurried and flustered appearance, Wei Baichuan just wanted to facepalm.
Who would get up so early to go to the mountains? It's not like they're really starving and can't survive.
"Tiger, did you see clearly? How could anyone be hiding in the mountains?" The team members had just finished assembling and hadn't received their tasks yet. Hearing Tiger's words, they all looked over in surprise.
There are no mountain dwellers in these areas, so what are they doing hiding in the mountains?
"Really, I saw it clearly. They even... Anyway, they don't look like good people at all. Captain, why don't you come with me to take a look?"
Tiger was getting anxious. Why was he asking questions? Shouldn't he be rushing to go into the mountains with him to check?
"Tiger, don't panic. Everyone grab your weapons and let's go take a look." The captain glanced at Tiger.
Seeing his anxious expression, which didn't seem fake, and fearing something might have happened, he quickly gathered a few people to go into the mountains to check.
Bingzi and his friends mingled among the team members, watching as Huzi led them into the mountains.
Wei Baichuan followed from a distance, worried that things might go wrong. He planned to come back later to make sure everything was alright, and he wouldn't run into those people from the mountains.
Watching Hu Zi drive along the road without even turning a corner, as if he knew this road as well as he had driven it eight hundred times, he didn't know what to say.
Fortunately, the captain and his team were looking around the whole way and didn't notice that Hu Zi was leading the way.
"Captain, this is it. I saw those people hiding inside." Tiger pointed to a grave and said earnestly to the captain.
The captain and his team members stared at the person with blank expressions.
"Tiger, did you see something evil?" Tiger's father pulled Tiger over.
You can't just say that; what kind of person would hide in a graveyard?
