Chapter 129: I have no intention of harming anyone, but one should still be wary of others.



Without a doubt, given the current food quality and absorption efficiency, the little ones will be ready to start working in no time.

The thought of Dahei's uncertain future made Jian Dan want to sigh again.

"You lot better pay attention! Can't you see your mother is distracted?"

Who knows, she might run away any day.

The little ones, oblivious to their worries, diligently climbed up, stepping on their shoes and grabbing their trouser legs.

The black egg kept dangling in front of them, and the educated youth were still frightened.

Inevitably, everyone had nightmares that night, and the entire group took leave the next day.

Chen Jianguo wasn't in such a serious condition. He was genuinely a bit shaken, but he managed to adjust well. As a result, he became a solitary role model among the older educated youth.

As for simplicity, killing a wild boar didn't even frighten me, so this is naturally no problem for me either.

However, when he came to meet up with his friends in the morning, he found that something was wrong and immediately fell ill. Chen Jianguo, who was responsible for asking for leave, forced himself to go to work. These friends are really a bunch of clowns.

Tang Cui almost got into a fight with Li Yan yesterday, so she didn't dare to be too arrogant today. Even if she didn't like him, she didn't dare to say anything. Chen Jianguo didn't care about the gossip behind his back. People can talk, and he couldn't control what they said.

Moreover, they don't have the energy or inclination to investigate each case unless it's particularly egregious.

Lin Dongfang, on the other hand, stayed by Chen Jianguo's side, lost in thought the whole time.

In particular, when Chen Jianguo asked for leave, the village chief nodded in agreement, and then asked them how they were doing and whether he needed to rest for a day as well, Lin Dongfang felt completely bewildered.

These past few days, I've been going to the commune whenever I have time, and I even took a day off yesterday, but that doesn't mean I'm completely oblivious to what's going on around me. What happened that he doesn't know about?

Isn't it said that apart from being poor, everything else here is pretty good?

Chen Jianguo also vaguely sensed that Lin Dongfang was paying a lot of attention to him, especially when he asked for leave earlier. His probing gaze was almost glued to him, but he didn't think much of it.

The older educated youth had a decent impression of Lin Dongfang; after all, he was the only sensible one among this group of new educated youth. Thinking this, Chen Jianguo nodded to Lin Dongfang and then answered Liu Weimin.

"Village chief, I don't need to rest. I can keep working with everyone."

“Okay,” Liu Weimin said, since he had already agreed. He didn’t try to persuade him further. What was a little thing to a young man like him?

"Then let's get to work! Tell me if anything happens."

Chen Jianguo agreed and turned to get to work. Lin Dongfang was itching to join in, but it was clearly not the time to talk. Then he thought that since they all lived in the same courtyard, there was no need to rush.

Everyone who was supposed to be at work had left. Li Yan and the others took a while to recover before getting up, feeling quite annoyed.

"How could I possibly have a fever?"

Tan Yajun's condition was the mildest. She had a nightmare as soon as she fell asleep, and when she woke up, Li Yan and Lin Zhaodi had fevers. After taking care of them, she was so tired that she lay down and fell asleep. Forget about nightmares, she felt that delaying for even a second would be disrespectful to her bed. She woke up in the morning feeling refreshed.

Li Yan and Lin Zhaodi were both in trouble. As soon as they closed their eyes, the string of black eggs appeared in their minds, swaying in front of them. Then, with a "bang," came a series of explosions. Half asleep and half awake, they were immediately terrified.

After a while, I closed my eyes again, trying to fall asleep, and once again, the black egg entered my dream.

After several attempts, the two of them finally woke up from their drowsiness, their eyelids drooping as they tried their best to keep them open.

It was a vicious cycle; what you fear most is what happens. The two of them were trapped in this illusion for the first half of the night.

Just as this heavy drowsiness finally took hold, I felt increasingly hot, and soon it felt as if I were in a scorching furnace, making it very difficult to sleep soundly.

I don't know how much time passed before I felt a cool sensation on my forehead, and only then did I become more awake.

When Tan Yajun first discovered that the two of them had fevers, she was also startled. However, having spent several years in the countryside, she had some life experience. There was really nothing she could do in the middle of the night, so she immediately fetched water and wiped them down.

Fortunately, they were only frightened and did not have any other symptoms.

After wiping for two hours, the temperature dropped significantly.

The fever subsided, but she was still very weak when she woke up in the morning, and her voice was hoarse. However, since the fever was gone, the girls weren't too worried and sat on the kang (a heated brick bed) chatting away.

Just looking at a few people,

"Were you really scared yesterday?"

Logically speaking, it's just a string of black eggs that didn't explode, so it shouldn't have such a strong deterrent effect.

Li Yan rolled her eyes at her.

"Can you compare to me? Hunting wild boars is like cutting vegetables."

"Ha ha,"

Upon closer examination, it does seem quite fitting.

The original owner was an ordinary student, but she wasn't. Her mental fortitude was like Iron Man's. Even if something really happened, she wouldn't be able to remain completely calm, but she wouldn't react too obviously either.

However, these educated youths were similar to the original owner of this body; they were just ordinary people and indeed had no opportunity to witness these firearms that had long been explicitly prohibited. Their reaction was therefore normal.

He immediately burst into laughter.

"Then there's nothing I can do about it. I was forced into this situation."

I've always been timid and quiet, and I wouldn't say a word even if someone bullied me.

When my dad came back, he taught me a few self-defense techniques. My grandpa and maternal grandpa would also often secretly take me out to meet different people. However, back then I was really timid and dared not do or say anything.

Until my father sacrificed his life, and then not long after my mother passed away, and my fiancé's family started bullying us again, I suddenly couldn't take it anymore.

When I was younger, I was concerned about my image and always wanted others to like me more, so I didn't have the courage to do anything else.

That day, my ex-fiancé had his hand around my neck. It was like I suddenly had an epiphany. I was about to die, what was the point of thinking about anything else?

So, after arriving here, I slowly picked up everything I had learned before. I guess you could say I'm letting my true nature take flight and freeing myself.

Li Yan's eyes were filled with envy, her pupils sparkling.

"Wow!"

I couldn't help but chuckle.

"This isn't a good thing, and your attitude isn't quite right."

“That’s true,” Tan Yajun nodded.

"Who wouldn't want to stay at home and live a carefree life? However, life is unpredictable and circumstances are demanding, so having a skill becomes a means of survival."

"Yes, yes, there's no intention to harm anyone, but we should be wary of others."

Li Yan lay down on the kang (a heated brick bed) and reached out to Jian Dan.

"Ah, I am wary of others, but I have no ability to protect myself. I need protection, I need close protection."
