Lei Fan looked at the hoe in his hand and a hint of doubt flashed across his face.
How was he tricked into coming here? Originally, after he completed the task, it would be his vacation time, but in fact, he is now doing hard labor.
Since Xu Zhiyi agreed so readily, when Xu Zhiyi said she wanted to help her grow herbs, he agreed without thinking.
It’s just growing herbs, how difficult can it be?
Lei Fan looked at the overgrown area in front of him, holding the hoe and remained silent.
He glanced at Xu Zhiyi silently. How did she come up with the idea of clearing land in the mountains to grow herbs?
This is a new world discovered by Xu Zhiyi.
It is suitable for growing the herbs she needs in the deep mountains, and she doesn't have to worry about them being picked.
As for whether it will be trampled by wild beasts, there is no need to worry about this issue.
After the land is cultivated, just surround it with thorns.
No matter how stupid or foolish a beast is, it will never rush into a thorny bush.
Pei Yan did whatever Xu Zhiyi said, without considering whether it was useful or not.
Of course, since Xu Zhiyi could think of planting some herbs, they couldn't be useless.
Fang Hai not only listened to Pei Yan, but also did whatever Xu Zhiyi said.
Don't ask why, just follow and do it. Anyway, Xu Zhiyi never treats them unfairly after asking them to do something.
As for Zhou Shuan, I met him by chance.
When he heard that they were going up the mountain to open up the land, he asked them to wait for a while, and soon came running over panting.
He went to find Shen Zhaodi and told her that he would come back to see her later.
Several people were very skilled in clearing the land and weeding. It was a practice that made them familiar with the job.
Xu Zhiyi did not use a hoe to weed like they did. Instead, he secretly used his special abilities to easily pull out the grass and tree roots.
Pei Yan and the others were not surprised, but Lei Fan once again witnessed Xu Zhiyi's unpredictable nature. If he hadn't had to use a hoe to remove them completely, he would have thought these weeds were so easy to pull out.
Lei Fan tried it and found that he could pull the herbs up with force, but the roots would break.
What Xu Zhiyi pulled out ended up uprooting the thing.
If you have the strength, you can do it.
Lei Fan felt more and more sorry. Xu Zhiyi should not be in the fields or mountains, but in the army.
She is perfect for the military.
Maybe he's a potential special forces soldier.
If he didn't know that Xu Zhiyi didn't have such an idea and was a person with firm beliefs, he really wanted to persuade her.
Such a good seedling, what a pity.
Lei Fan turned the regret in his heart into motivation and swung the hoe with even greater vigor.
Lei Fan's movements were quick and meticulous, causing Pei Yan to secretly compete with him.
At first, Lei Fan didn't think much about it, but later he found that the boy from the Pei family seemed to be chasing him for comparison.
About men's strange desire to win.
Lei Fan was used to winning in the army and was always the first one to come in. His desire to win immediately arose in his heart.
In the silent contest between the two, the hoe left afterimages, but in the end, Pei Yan, who was more skilled at the work, won.
Pei Yan glanced at him indifferently, then looked at Xu Zhiyi.
"Zhiyi, I'm done cleaning." There seemed to be anticipation in his tone.
Xu Zhiyi looked at them, and then at the piece of land that Pei Yan had acquired. She saw that Pei Yan was staring at her intently, as if he was expecting something.
Before Xu Zhiyi could finish her words, she suddenly thought, "Ayan, you're amazing! You work so fast!"
"Some of the older ones aren't as fast as you!"
Don't be too indicative when you say this.
Pei Yan glanced at Lei Fan, and Lei Fang's eyes twitched. What kind of look is that, little brat?
Fang Hai laughed secretly while Zhou Shuanzi was lying down and was shot.
Lei Fan puckered his cheek and laughed in anger. He didn't know how he had offended the eldest young master of the Pei family. He had been looking at him with a cold look since the beginning of the morning.
It's like a moving ice cube emitting cold air.
Now he didn't look at people coldly anymore, and even looked down on them a little.
Hey, if these two little brats were really in the army, he could beat two of them at once.
As for now, forget it, the mission is more important.
He understands the overall situation. It's just a relationship. Everyone knows that they are on the same side.
Object?
Good boy, why are you jealous?
"Pei boy, go back and try it out." Lei Fan suddenly felt like playing.
Before Pei Yan could say anything, Fang Hai dropped his hoe and watched the fun without a care in the world. "Brother Yan, promise him! I'm sure you can beat him."
As he spoke, he poked Zhou Shuanzi with his elbow. After spending so much time together, the two of them had some tacit understanding.
Zhou Shuanzi agreed, his tone a little weak, "Yes, yes!"
What he was thinking was, this is a soldier, Pei Yan might not be able to defeat him.
Zhou Shuanzi had seen Pei Yan's skills. He was indeed powerful, but could he really beat someone from the army?
Thinking of this, he turned his gaze to Pei Yan.
Pei Yan stood up with the hoe in hand and looked at Lei Fan intently, "Okay. I'd like to ask you for advice."
Lei Fan was quite good at taking advantage of the situation. "Okay, I'll teach you a few more tricks."
Pei Yan glanced at him and nodded slightly.
Fang Hai was really not convinced. If that were the case, my brother Yan was very capable, and it was still unclear who would teach whom.
As Pei Yan's number one fanboy, Fang Hai is Pei Yan's die-hard fan.
While they were talking, Xu Zhiyi went to find a lot of wild fruits and brought back a basket.
"Ayan, Comrade Lei, come and take a break and have some fruit."
Lei Fan saw the red fruits in the basket, which were big and red, and they were grapes. He thought she must have found them in the mountains.
Aren’t wild fruits in the mountains supposed to be sour and astringent?
Fang Hai and Zhou Shuanzi were not shy. After working for a short while, they were actually a little thirsty.
He walked up, picked up a fruit at random, and stuffed it into his mouth.
Lei Fan was still wondering whether to remind them when he saw the two of them eating with gusto.
Isn’t it sour?
Lei Fan walked over and took a bigger fruit, took a bite, and his mouth was full of juice. It was sour and sweet, and quite delicious.
It was not at all the sour and astringent taste he had imagined.
He couldn't help but look at Xu Zhiyi again.
Xu Zhiyi took out a fruit, which was obviously much bigger than the ones in the basket, and handed it to Pei Yan.
"Ayan, this big fruit is for you. I specially reserved it for you. It's the biggest one." Xu Zhiyi winked at him.
Pei Yan took the fruit. It was a unique fruit that only he had a preference for. This fruit tasted particularly sweet to his heart.
Accompanied by the mountain breeze, it was slightly cool. The few people were not afraid of the dirty ground. They sat on the ground, whispering a few words, mixed with the chirping of insects and birds in the mountains, looking so comfortable.
Lei Fan actually began to understand why Xu Zhiyi was willing to stay in this remote mountain village, leisurely and comfortable, completely unaffected by the turmoil outside.
