After more than an hour of digging, the three men finally emptied the pit.
"Let's dig!" Ji Shuyan was the first to swing the hoe.
The three of them started digging again, and dug two meters deep in one breath, but still found nothing.
"Boss, where did you get this information? Could it be inaccurate?" Zhu Jiaxian looked at the pit mouth that had already covered his head and almost wanted to die.
"The female ghost said so." Ji Shuyan did not hide it.
"What? She came to see you?" Zhu Jiaxian's skin tightened all over and his scalp went numb.
"No." Ji Shuyan said without thinking.
"Then how do you know?"
He didn't doubt that the ghost girl's words were false, but... she was a ghost girl. Nowadays, feudal superstitions are being eradicated everywhere. They...
Ji Shuyan was too lazy to continue talking to him. He took the flashlight and scanned the surrounding earth walls. Could it be that he was digging in the wrong direction?
Just then, Ji Shuyan noticed that there was something wrong with the soil in front of Zhu Jiaxian on the right.
He dug with the hoe for a while and found a large wooden box embedded in a layer of soil less than five centimeters thick.
Several people fell silent when they saw the wooden box in front of them. If they had known that it was the side of the manure pit, why would they dig out manure!
Yi Xiaoqiu was outside at the time and could only see the box through the sewage in the pit. Moreover, there was an earthen wall less than half a meter above the box. He couldn't tear down the wall, right?
Between demolishing the wall and digging out the feces, Yi Xiaoqiu chose digging out the feces without thinking.
Zhu Jiaxian was just about to say that their manure was dug out in vain and they just needed to dig the soil above, but when he looked up, he saw the wall above.
"If we take out the box, will the wall collapse?"
"If you're careful, it probably won't happen."
The box is supported by wooden boards. It will be fine for a while after taking it out, but it may not be the case after a long time.
"Let's do it!"
…………
The three of them returned to the apartment that night, and only after they had cleaned themselves up did they have time to look at the things inside.
As soon as the box was opened, everyone was shocked.
"Battalion Commander, we finally found something." Zhu Jiaxian's face was full of joy.
Oh my god! This is exactly what they are looking for.
This female ghost is too powerful! Next time he goes to her grave to burn incense!
The monkey stared at the two bronze statues without blinking. "They don't look like they're made of gold! They can't be worth much! Why would I bother looking for them?"
Zhu Jiaxian put his hand on his shoulder and said, "This thing can help our boss rise up, so it is valuable."
The monkey nodded. "Yes, that makes sense."
"Jiaxian, take over the work tomorrow and return the bicycle outside to Yi Zhiqing. I'll leave with Monkey tonight."
Ji Shuyan himself didn't expect that things would go so smoothly and his departure would be so sudden.
Thinking that he could still send a letter to Yi Xiaoqiu after he returned, the reluctance in his heart eased a little.
As for the little goldfish he promised to Yi Xiaoqiu, he planned to give it to her the next time they met.
"So sudden?" Zhu Jiaxian was a little confused.
"If we delay, something bad will happen. Monkey, ride your bike to the county armed forces department and borrow that jeep."
"Yes!" The monkey ran out.
While packing his things, Ji Shuyan told Zhu Jiaxian about Yi Xiaoqiu's situation.
"She's a female educated youth from the Seventh Company. You just need to send the car over directly."
"What? She's an educated youth?"
After so long, Zhu Jiaxian still didn't know that Yi Xiaoqiu was an educated youth who went to the countryside.
"What's so strange about that?"
Zhu Jiaxian smacked his lips. "I really can't tell! It seems her family must send her a lot of money every month."
Otherwise, how dare you ask for money like that?
Zhu Jiaxian broadened his horizons a lot when he went shopping with Yi Xiaoqiu that time.
Yi Xiaoqiu didn't know that someone had left, and when they met again, it would be such a coincidence.
The next day, Shen Ruofei entered Yi Xiaoqiu's room mysteriously early in the morning.
"I've already heard from Xiao Guo about what you said about setting up a school." Yi Xiaoqiu said calmly.
Last night, Xiao Guo told him a lot about what happened in the educated youth center when she was not there, including which people in the educated youth center were not interested in looking for anyone and which people were still thinking about looking for her after Captain Fang talked about recruiting teachers. Guo Xiaochuan told him everything clearly, as if she was complaining to him.
Yi Xiaoqiu really didn't expect that Lu Zhiqing would care so much about her affairs.
When she heard what Guo Xiaochuan said, she felt a little uneasy for a moment.
"Ah! Did Xiaochuan tell you that?"
"Um."
"I plan to give this opportunity to you, and then I will test you casually." Shen Ruofei explained her purpose.
Yi Xiaoqiu looked at Shen Ruofei steadily. Is this her fault?
With so many people around, even if Shen Ruofei didn't take the exam, Yi Xiaoqiu felt that as a poor student, he couldn't possibly compete with those protagonists.
Haven’t you seen that Chu Zhiqing and Lu Zhiqing never put down their books?
Shen Ruofei laughed twice, and she suddenly remembered that Xiaoqiu was just like her, both were poor students. If a poor student befriended another poor student, wouldn't that make people laugh?
"How about you go and give Captain Fang a gift? I'll prepare the things." Shen Ruofei suggested again.
"Forget it. Don't you know who I am? It's better not to harm the people of our motherland." Yi Xiaoqiu said casually.
When Shen Ruofei heard this, her heart moved. Why did this sound so familiar? But when she thought about it again, she couldn't remember anything.
"Then don't take the test!"
"Take the exam! Why not?" Yi Xiaoqiu suddenly asked.
"You didn't say..." Shen Ruofei didn't understand. She had just said that she couldn't pass the exam as well as others, and she thought she was going to give up. Unexpectedly...
“Whether or not you pass the test is one thing; whether or not you pass the test is another.”
The captain has spoken, so no matter what, it’s best to respond to the call. After all, we still have to work on their territory!
Yi Xiaoqiu knew that Shen Ruofei was currently obsessed with speculation and looked down on this kind of fixed job, but she couldn't show it that way.
Shen Ruofei immediately followed Yi Xiaoqiu's train of thought, "Then I'll take the exam too."
After Shen Ruofei fell asleep, Yi Xiaoqiu spoke on behalf of Xiaocao and then took Guo Xiaochuan out.
They went to Gao Dazhuang for help in repairing the house.
Gao Dazhuang's house is opposite the threshing ground. If the two want to go to Gao Dazhuang's house, they have to cross the threshing ground.
Yi Xiaoqiu and Guo Xiaochuan left the educated youth point one after another.
As soon as he walked out of the hospital gate, Yi Xiaoqiu saw from afar a group of women sitting on horse stools basking in the sun.
Guo Xiaochuan's stepmother Ma Juqin was also in the crowd, raising her hands and saying something. When the two of them got closer, they heard the words "Yi Zhiqing has a young husband".
She described it vividly, as if she, Ma Juzhen, had seen it with her own eyes right next to her.
Yi Xiaoqiu really broadened his horizons. He didn't expect that Ma Juqin was so good at confusing right and wrong.
Looking at the people next to him, they all had ambiguous smiles on their faces and echoed from time to time, obviously treating this as a joke.
