Looking at the honest-looking boy in front of him, Chen Shuning sighed inwardly, thinking that these two were probably the only ones in the educated youth settlement who didn't know about the black market.
Not to mention her and Gu Xinyi, two regulars at the black market, Chen Shuning had encountered almost everyone else in the educated youth settlement at the black market, and even Yang Xiaohong, whom she had met once.
However, Yang Xiaohong, who is usually very frugal, went to the black market not to buy anything, but to sell the wild pears she had picked up in the mountains.
Of course, in other people's eyes, Chen Shuning and Gu Xinyi were also good comrades, because the two of them were basically selling some in-demand products, so they were basically all made up.
If Chen Shuning were to bring Wang Chunni with him this time, he probably wouldn't be able to put on makeup.
However, she might not need to buy too much this time, because Wang Chunni's words just reminded her that heating isn't just about coal and firewood, but also about charcoal.
You know, there are quite a few barbecue restaurants and hot pot restaurants in the space supermarket. Charcoal grilling is all the rage now, so those restaurants should have plenty of charcoal.
The outdoor goods store should also have charcoal, and it should all be good smokeless charcoal.
It's a shame she didn't think of that earlier. If she had, she might have saved up quite a bit over time, which would have made a lot of money. It's such a pity.
It's a pity, but keeping myself warm is the most important thing. So I'll take some time to check how much carbon is in the space before deciding whether to sell it.
After walking for about twenty minutes, the three of them turned the corner of the hillside where the educated youth were and saw a pine forest. The ground was covered with pine needles and pine cones. Just as the two men had said, this patch of pine cones alone would be enough for them to burn for a while.
The pine forest was vast, so the three of them split up, which suited Chen Shuning perfectly. They picked up the pine trees and threw them into their spatial storage as they went.
As Chen Shuning walked, she went quite far. Having already picked up more than half a basket, she decided not to pick any more pine cones, since she already had quite a few in her storage space.
Chen Shuning planned to look around the neighborhood to see if there was anything else.
After placing the bamboo basket under a tall pine tree, Chen Shuning walked further away.
Perhaps it's because she drinks the spiritual spring water regularly, but now Chen Shuning's skin is getting better and better, and her eyesight and hearing are also improving.
Chen Shuning hadn't gone far when he heard a panting sound.
Upon realizing a certain possibility, Chen Shuning broke out in a cold sweat and turned to run back, but it was clearly too late.
Because right in front of her, in an inconspicuous ditch, lay a huge wild boar. It was clear that Chen Shuning's intrusion had disturbed Mr. Wild Boar's peaceful slumber.
At that moment, the wild boar was raising its huge head, its eyes meeting Chen Shuning's.
Chen Shuning wanted to apologize and tell the old man to go back to sleep, but it was obviously too late, because the wild boar had already slowly stood up.
Startled, Chen Shuning turned and ran. Knowing that the others were nearby, Chen Shuning didn't care about conserving his energy and shouted as he ran, "Run, everyone! Wild boars are coming!"
The people closest to her were Wang Chunni and Xu Laidi; Chen Shuning could even hear Wang Chunni humming a song.
Other educated youth also came in this direction, and even if they didn't enter this pine forest, they shouldn't be too far away.
After running for a while, Chen Shuning realized that he was obviously not as fast as the wild boar. As the wild boar got closer and closer, Chen Shuning quickly forced himself to calm down and tried to recall the methods he had seen and heard about avoiding wild boars.
As for killing a wild boar with a wood-chopping knife like in novels, Chen Shuning wouldn't even dare to dream of it. With her small arms and legs, she couldn't even outrun a wild boar, let alone kill it.
Thinking of the wild boar's long, gleaming tusks, Chen Shuning didn't dare to use a stun gun on it.
Chen Shuning dared not use the space as a last resort, since more than twenty educated youth were scattered around the area.
At this moment, Chen Shuning couldn't be sure who was nearby, so she didn't dare to do something as fantastical as disappearing into thin air. She didn't want to live a solitary life away from people.
Her mind was a jumble of useless thoughts as she watched the wild boar getting closer and closer. What was even more terrifying was that Chen Shuning had already spotted Wang Chunni not far in front of her.
The girl clearly hadn't heard what she just shouted. Seeing Chen Shuning running over, she asked with a puzzled look, "Shuning, why are you running? And what did you just shout..."
Chen Shuning had no time to answer her at that moment. He hurriedly waved his hand and shouted, "Run! There's a wild boar chasing me!"
"What wild boar?" Wang Chunni's mind was a bit slow, but luckily her eyesight was still good. As soon as she asked the question, she saw the wild boar behind Chen Shuning, which weighed at least three or four hundred pounds.
Startled, she cried out "Oh my god!", dropped the bamboo basket in her hand, and ran away.
So the number of people being chased by wild boars changed from one, Chen Shuning, to two.
Hearing the wild boar getting closer and closer behind him, Chen Shuning was already considering whether he should just ignore everything and enter the space.
But at that moment, they suddenly saw a cypress tree growing in the middle of the mountain road ahead.
Suddenly remembering that wild boars can't climb trees, she hurriedly shouted to Wang Chunni, who was running not far ahead of her, "Chunni, hurry up and climb the tree, wild boars can't climb trees."
As Chen Shuning spoke, he hurriedly climbed up the cypress tree that grew in the middle of the mountain path.
It's unclear whether the threat of death spurred Chen Shuning's potential, but Chen Shuning, who failed the 800-meter run in his previous middle school entrance exam, suddenly climbed the cypress tree in no time, completing the feat in three runs and two jumps.
