Chapter 326 Ding Baicun
’s outer shirt was replaced by a navy blue homespun shirt, and the leather shoes on his feet were replaced by hand-sewn black cloth shoes.
Even the hair was wrapped with a navy blue cloth.
At a quick glance, she looked just like the women in their twenties and thirties who could be seen everywhere on the street. She disappeared into the crowd. She was obviously different from the previous one who had a unique temperament even without heavy makeup.
Guaranteed not to be easily recognized.
Xu Wanning quietly followed Haitang at a distance that was neither close nor far away.
After leaving the train station, Haitang and her grandfather got on a rickshaw. It was not like what she said on the train that someone would pick her up.
Xu Wanning did not delve into why she lied, and quickly jumped into another rickshaw, "Brother, please help me follow the person in front of me. She is my sister, and she brought me back to visit relatives, but this is my first time in Haicheng. , I don’t know the road, and if I get sidetracked, I don’t know where to go.”
“Don’t worry, there’s no one in Haicheng that I can’t keep up with!”
Haitang said after running for about half an hour. My grandfather and I stopped in front of a semi-abandoned house that was in disrepair.
"Are you going to Dingbai Village?" The coachman shook his head and sighed: "That place...forget it, just give me one dollar."
Xu Wanning gave the coachman all the two and a half yuan Haitang gave her: "After running so far "How can one dollar be enough? Brother, take these two dollars and five. Tell me, what's going on in Dingbai Village?"
It is indeed described in the book that the village where Lin An made a major discovery was called Dingbai Village.
Seeing that Haitang and her grandfather were familiar with the road, they must be very familiar with this area. In this case, Xu Wanning could no longer follow.
Haitang may not be able to discover it at her young age, but her grandfather is a scheming person. Xu Wanning cannot move forward rashly without knowing anything about what lies ahead.
The driver suddenly got an extra $1.5 "tip", so he naturally knew everything about Xu Wanning.
"This Dingbai Village is very strange. It used to be one of the richest villages in Haicheng. The ruins you can see now are all the former territory of Dingbai Village."
"But seven or eight years ago, Dingbai Village A plague suddenly broke out in Bai Village, killing most of the people in the village, and most of the people who died were young people, women and children, leaving only a few old, weak, sick and disabled children. , but it is said that they are not in good health."
"Since then, Dingbai Village has slowly declined. Gradually, they have moved to live in the mountains, almost isolated from the world."
After listening to the driver's description. , Xu Wanning couldn't help but guess that the so-called "plague" was actually deliberately caused by someone.
And all the hundreds of strong working people in the village died in just a few days. The truth behind it is simply horrifying.
"Comrade, are you really going to Dingbai Village? Let me tell you, that girl of yours might be tricking you, maybe she wants to trick you back and then... forget it, I won't say more, you can see for yourself "Brother is right .
Since I know that Dingbai Village is not a good place, I don't dare to go in. Brother, you go ahead. I'll take a rest and go to the city.
" "Don't worry, I won't charge you any money."
Xu Wanning wanted to find an excuse to decline the coachman's kindness. She wanted to sneak into Dingbai Village quietly after the coachman left, but when she saw several modified military jeeps approaching, Xu Wanning jumped immediately. Got on a rickshaw.
"Brother, thank you."
She had already learned before setting off that her father had arranged for her brother to come to rescue Lin An's team.
She couldn't let her brother know she was here, otherwise he would have to worry about her safety.
She is here to save people, not to cause trouble.
"Okay, sit tight!"
As soon as he reached a crowded place, Xu Wanning hurriedly asked the driver to stop and gave him another 50 cents: "Brother, thank you."
If you can make more money, naturally no one will Foolish enough to refuse, the rickshaw driver contentedly pulled his rickshaw back to the train station.
Xu Wanning turned around and walked in the opposite direction.
When no one was around, she took the bicycle out of the space and returned to the entrance of Dingbai Village as quickly as possible.
At this time, the team led by Xu Maoyan had quietly sneaked in.
Needless to say, their large-scale invasion would definitely be noticed by the usually vigilant villagers of Dingbai Village.
Xu Wanning took advantage of the chaos and entered Dingbai Village.
She knew that since her brother dared to come, he would definitely be able to escape, so she did not stay too long.
She also needs to find Haitang as soon as possible to find Lin An through Haitang.
Dingbai Village is far more desolate than Xu Wanning imagined. Most of the people living here are old people about the same age as Grandpa Haitang, both men and women, but without exception, they are all very strong.
As soon as Xu Wanning crossed a narrow path, she saw a small group of five sturdy old men, each holding a homemade wooden barn in their hands. "Are there soldiers here again? How many people are there this time?"
"I I did a rough calculation just now, and there are at least twenty people."
"I think these people are really looking for death! Come on, come with me, beat the shit out of them, and let them know that we are not here in Dingbai Village. You 're easy to bully!"
"Haitang, Haiyu, Haitian, Hainan, you guys just stay at home and prepare dinner. I guess there's going to be a tough battle today, and we have to fill our stomachs."
"Grandpa Cang, don't worry. Let's go cook and give you some more meat today."
Hearing Haitang's voice, Xu Wanning immediately followed the sound and saw that Haitang had already changed her clothes.
When I saw her on the train, she was wearing a pair of really good short-sleeved clothes. Now she was wearing clothes made of homespun cloth unique to rural areas, which were similar to the one worn by Xu Wanning.
But she has fair skin, and she looks particularly cute and charming when standing next to several boys of the same age but with dark skin.
"Haitang, you must be exhausted after traveling for several days. Just sit down and play. We'll cook dinner."
"Can you cook? Is there anything you can't do with the cooked food? " "Eat?"
"Don't worry, our grandparents have been cooking dinner lately!" Haiyu said proudly, patting his chest.
"Okay, you cook, and I'll go check on Ergouzi."
Seeing Haitang about to leave, Xu Wanning hurriedly followed her.
"Did you see something just now?"
"It seems like a big black mouse is following Haitang. How about I follow him and take a look?"
"Stop making excuses for yourself, kid, hurry up and chop wood to make a fire!"
Hainan muttered. : "I really saw it, and I'm really worried about Haitang. Why don't you believe me?"
