Before the autumn harvest, the village chief would organize more than ten villagers, led by experienced old hunters, to go hunting in the mountains.
This kind of hunting activity organized by the village is organized so that the working villagers can have something good to eat after the autumn harvest.
Although there were many people, for personal safety, they basically selected the reliable and capable men in the village.
The village chief would not dare to let those who are sneaky, timid and cowardly into the mountains.
You should know that the most taboo thing in the mountains is to scare people away by not obeying orders.
There are many dangers in the deep mountains, and you may lose your life if you are not careful.
This time, the team was led by the old hunter Yang Liushu from the village. He had learned hunting from an old hunter in the village.
When he was in his teens, he followed his master into the mountains to hunt and he was very brave.
Later, he joined the army. He was injured in the leg and then retired and returned to Xiangyang Village. Uncle Yang Liu led the hunting team over the years.
The energetic young people in the village admire Uncle Yang Liu very much.
Not only is he skilled in martial arts but he is also a retired soldier, so his prestige in the village is comparable to that of the village chief.
The village chief has always had a good relationship with him and often consults him when there is something he cannot handle.
Many young people in the village were looking forward to this hunting trip, after all, they had never seen the dangers of the mountains.
Everyone was excited and eager to try it out.
Shitou was very active. He felt that he was an adult and wanted to follow the hunting team up the mountain even if it meant being naughty.
He was grabbed by the ear by his own mother and beaten with a feather duster.
Dad didn't help and even stood at the door to prevent him from running out of the house.
There were fifteen or sixteen men who went up the mountain this year, and the village chief even specially called Pei Yan along.
He knew that Pei Yan was skilled in martial arts, and now that Uncle Yang was getting older, he might not be able to take care of him.
With Pei Yan here, it will be at least a little safer.
I don’t know which man started the commotion, but he called out to the village chief to ask Xu Zhiqing to go along as well.
The educated youth were so strong that they would not be afraid even if they met a tiger.
"Yes! Village chief, Xu Zhiqing is amazing, call her over."
"I really have to say, Xu Zhiqing is so strong, he must be as strong as two men."
"How do you know? You haven't tried to compete with her."
"Hey! Don't be skeptical! I saw Xu Zhiqing lift a huge rock by himself without blushing or getting nervous. Gangzi tried, but he couldn't lift it."
The village chief listened to them and neither agreed nor refused.
We still have to ask the educated youth for their opinions. No matter how much you say here, it will be useless.
Pei Yan frowned. He didn't want Xu Zhiyi to go into the mountains with him. After all, she was a woman and there were so many people on the mountain. What if he had to take them into consideration?
Pei Yan subconsciously ignored Xu Zhiyi's ability to move freely in the mountains.
The village chief had some ideas, but he didn't say them in front of everyone. He waited until everyone had dispersed and called Pei Yan.
"Boy Yan, do you think Xu Zhiqing will agree to follow the hunting team into the mountains?" The village chief took a puff from his pipe.
"I don't know." Pei Yan felt that Xu Zhiyi was quite willing to participate in this kind of excitement.
"Young man Yan, uncle asks you for a favor!"
Pei Yan said I don’t want to agree.
"Now, whether you go to work or not, I won't come to look for you." said the cunning village chief.
Pei Yan rarely went to work, and whenever the village chief saw him he would ask him when he would go to work.
Knowing that he didn't mean to force him, was he just free?
"I'll go ask! If she doesn't want to go, there's nothing I can do." Pei Yan turned around and left without waiting for the village chief to speak.
The village chief looked at Pei Yan's back with a meaningful expression.
You little brat, you’re still a little immature to argue with him!
Pei Yan only realized it when he was walking on the road to the Youth League Home. How did the village chief know that I was familiar with Xu Zhiyi?
Could it be the incident with the human traffickers last time?
...Did he agree too quickly?
Pei Yan rarely came to the educated youth site to look for Xu Zhiyi during the day, and he didn't know whether Xu Zhiyi was there at the moment.
After arriving at the educated youth point, I knocked on the door.
The person who opened the door was a male educated youth, whose name seemed to be Fu Huaijin.
Fu Huaijin knew Pei Yan. Pei Yan's temperament was eye-catching and he didn't look like a country boy at all.
I was just curious about why he suddenly came to the educated youth site.
"Fu Zhiqing, please help me call Xu Zhiqing, thank you." Pei Yan's expression was calm and his tone was neither cold nor hot.
"Oh, okay." After saying that, Fu Huaijin walked towards the dormitory where Xu Zhiyi lived.
Pei Yan followed him into the educated youth camp and found out the location of Xu Zhiyi's dormitory.
Fu Huaijin knocked on their dormitory door, "Comrade Xu, someone is looking for you."
Xu Zhiyi heard a sound outside the door, walked out and saw that it was Pei Yan.
He nodded politely at Fu Huaijin and spoke to Pei Yan with a smile on his face.
"Why are you here?" Xu Zhiyi was surprised. Pei Yan had never come to the educated youth camp to see her like this before.
Fu Huaijin felt a little dissatisfied. What happened to Xu Zhiyi?
She was very cold towards him, but she smiled happily even though he was a country girl.
But he didn't show it on his face, and pretended to be generous and said, "You guys chat, I'll go in first."
Pei Yan nodded in response and quickly shifted his gaze to Xu Zhiyi.
"Let's talk outside." There are too many people at the educated youth's point, so it's better to talk outside.
Xu Zhiyi didn't want other people to hear their conversation.
Pei Yan followed Xu Zhiyi out of the courtyard, leaving Fu Huaijin standing there looking at their backs.
He actually felt that the two of them looked harmonious and well-matched from behind.
He scoffed and walked into the house.
"Tell me, what's the matter?" Xu Zhiyi said casually.
"The village has organized a hunting party, and the village chief wanted me to ask you if you want to go with them?"
"Hunting team? They've organized a team to go hunting in the mountains together. Are you going?"
For Xu Zhiyi, the deep mountains are like going home, very relaxing.
She was the only one who didn't feel any danger. If it were anyone else, they would probably lose their lives.
"If you don't want to go, just don't agree. The village chief won't have any objection." Pei Yan naturally didn't want Xu Zhiyi to go.
But Xu Zhiyi suddenly became excited and she wanted to go!
If someone gets hurt, she might pick herbs to treat their injuries.
She has no problem with simple injuries, and if there is an injury, she can be a good training ground.
However, apart from a few people in the cowshed, not even Pei Yan knew that she was studying Chinese medicine.
"I'll go with you. Maybe with me here, you can come back with a lot of stuff." Xu Zhiyi joked with a smile, speaking in a way that sounded half serious and half fake.
Pei Yan knew that Xu Zhiyi had some unknown abilities, but of course he believed what she said.
He nodded to show his agreement with what she said.
Xu Zhiyi was amused by his serious look and suddenly reached out to touch his head.
Pei Yan was not on guard against Xu Zhiyi. It was only after Xu Zhiyi withdrew her hand after touching him that he reacted.
He took a hurried step back, his eyes wandering.
"Don't touch a man's head casually!"
