After the educated youth finished their lunch, Xu Zhiyi said hello to them and planned to stroll around the county town.
She planned to go to the junkyard to see if there were any books. She planned to look for high school textbooks.
After a few years of receiving the notification, she plans to take the college entrance examination and go to university.
Although she went to college before the end of her previous life, she had to worry about her livelihood for a long time due to family reasons.
Her college entrance examination results were not ideal and no one could give her any good advice.
She could only explore on her own and randomly chose a university based on her scores. The major was not good either, which made it difficult for her to find a job when she entered society.
Later, she continued to improve herself and learn, and took many detours before she was able to earn some money.
This time God gave her a chance to be reborn, so she must take a more exciting path.
Everyone on the street was in a hurry. Xu Zhiyi turned into an alley and happened to meet an older woman carrying a basket.
"Sister, I want to ask where this recycling station is? My uncle works there, and I'm going to give him something."
The older sister, who was stopped rashly, was startled and said, "Go to the end of this alley and turn right."
The eldest sister pointed in the direction to go and hurried away protecting the basket.
Xu Zhiyi, who didn't have time to thank him, noticed that the man seemed to have a lot of food in his basket.
He raised an eyebrow and walked in the direction his eldest sister pointed.
The further you go in, the more alleys crisscross and extend in all directions.
Just as Xu Zhiyi was looking for a recycling station, a noisy sound of footsteps came from the alley next door. "Hurry up and chase him! His leg is injured, he won't be able to run far!"
The footsteps gradually faded away.
When there was no one around, a man limped towards them.
The visitor didn't expect Xu Zhiyi to appear here, and his face froze for a moment.
"Pretend you didn't see me, or you'll be in danger."
The injured man looked embarrassed as he brushed past Xu Zhiyi, his words dissipating in the wind.
After running more than a hundred meters, a dilapidated door opened quietly and the man slipped in sideways.
As soon as the door closed, Xu Zhiyi came running towards him with seven or eight men with fierce faces and bad attitudes.
The leading man said angrily, "What are you doing here?"
"I was passing by and took the wrong road." Xu Zhiyi's voice trembled with fear, and his body trembled slightly, not daring to face him.
The man glanced at Xu Zhiyi from head to toe, his hands empty. "Did you see a man with an injured foot running over here?"
"I...I don't know. I thought I saw a limping person running past the entrance of the alley."
Xu Zhiyi timidly pointed to the entrance of another alley.
When the man heard this, he quickly called his brothers to run over there.
The timidity on Xu Zhiyi's face disappeared instantly, and he guessed that they must have come from the black market.
After meeting these people, she was no longer interested in picking up books from the scrap yard, so she turned around and walked in another direction towards the supply and marketing cooperative.
Behind the dilapidated door.
Pei Yan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the people chasing him running away.
The blood had soaked through the bandage on his leg that had been hastily bandaged in a panic.
"Gu Zi, has everyone left?" the man next to him asked in a low voice.
"Let's go. The city is under strict inspection during this period. We can't stay here any longer! We need to go back and stay for a while. Don't come to the city for the time being."
Pei Yan's hoarse voice was completely inconsistent with his handsome face.
He limped into the house, skillfully removed the cloth strips on his legs, picked up the soju next to him and poured it on his legs, with no expression on his face and not even a frown on his brows.
"Fuck! Which bastard is responsible for this? Don't let me catch him, or I'll let him know how powerful I am." Fang Hai was extremely angry.
I thought it was an ordinary transaction, but someone in the black market tipped off me, causing the transaction to fail and I almost got caught.
"We have a traitor on our side. This incident is closely related to Lai Bazi. You go find Master An and ask him to find someone to investigate." Pei Yan said calmly.
His hands kept moving as he opened a packet of medicinal mud and applied it on his leg, then wrapped it with gauze.
"This stronghold is unsafe, abandoned. Inform the brothers to evacuate, do not trade for the time being, and wait for my news."
"Brother Yan, do you... do you know who it is?"
Fang Hai hesitated, afraid that the answer he asked might not be what he wanted to hear.
"Oh, no matter who he is, betrayal must bear the consequences!"
Fang Hai was silent for a while, not knowing what he wanted to bring, and shivered.
"Fangzi, please bring some food over later. I have to wait until dark before going back. Go and inform the brothers first and come back with me in the evening."
Fang Hai nodded, "Brother Yan, you should have a good rest first. I will come back after dark."
After Fang Hai left, Pei Yan thought of the person he met in the alley. Even though he passed by her in a hurry, he could still smell the faint fragrance on her body.
That educated youth from the city looks so timid.
…Why would she help me?
Xu Zhiyi went to the supply and marketing cooperative and didn't want to buy anything, so he bought a pound of White Rabbit candy.
She likes sweets very much, and in this era, the sweetest thing is sugar.
After buying it, I came out and met Jiang Wanqiao and Fu Huaijin.
There was still enough space for a person to walk between the two of them, but the ambiguous atmosphere around them was noticeable even to Xu Zhiyi, an old bachelor who had been single for many years.
Xu Zhiyi couldn't help but smile. She didn't expect that the hero and heroine had already developed feelings for each other at this time. It seemed that they were in an ambiguous period.
Fu Huaijin saw Xu Zhiyi first and nodded to greet her. However, when Jiang Wanqiao saw Xu Zhiyi, the shyness on her face had not yet faded.
I don’t know what Fu Huaijin said that made her feel embarrassed. She was no longer as cool and aloof as before.
