ig white rabbit milk candy!"Ning Yuan, you idiot, you brought out all the evidence!Just a minute... the sugar is too low!Tang Zhenzhen glared angrily at Ning Yuan: "You stole my things again, there ar..."Xiaoning, why do you have to argue with them" Hua sighed.

After yesterday's interaction, and with his father also saying that Ning Yuan is a grateful and kind girl, he started treating Ning Yuan like a younger sister.

Ning Yuan just smiled nonchalantly and picked up her burden again: "It's nothing, Hua Zi Ge, I'm too lazy to argue with them."

These people are constantly calculating their work points day by day, but full opening is coming soon.

As long as one's mind is active and they are diligent enough, they will not starve themselves.

Apart from not mixing with the small group led by Tang Zhenzhen, she was happier as she didn't have to constantly worry about that woman causing trouble.

Hua Zi arranged Ning Yuan to work with the villagers, remembering her father's instructions, she privately asked her good friends in the village to take extra care of Ning Yuan.

Most people in the village, seeing that Ning Yuan had actually married a down-to-the-country re-education cadre, thought the young intellectual was both foolish and pitiful. They were even more willing to look after her a little bit.

Ning Yuan was much more comfortable than she had been working in the youth team, although her body was tired, her heart wasn't.

When work was done at night, Hua's daughter-in-law stuffed her with several large steamed buns and newly pickled sour beans. She also picked two handfuls of tender greens for her.

That's a little gift in return for the bottle of wine and sugar.

Ning Yuan was quite happy. After a tiring day working in the fields, she didn't feel like fishing anymore. She simply stir-fried the vegetables and pickled broad beans and ate them with steamed buns and sweet potato porridge for dinner.

Rong Zhao'nan continued to be responsible for washing dishes and tidying up, as well as cleaning. She didn't complain about the vegetarian dinner and ate it quietly until she finished.

At night, Ning Yuan washed up as usual and continued reading. She waited for Rong Zhaonan to fall asleep first before going to bed herself.

When the rain came later in the night, Ning Yuan woke up groggily, only to find... that she was alone on the bed.

Her heart skipped a beat, she stared blankly at the bed, Rong Zhaonan had quietly vanished once again.

There was still no sign of him having gone out. Ning Yuan lay in bed for a long time, finally deciding to investigate where Rong Zhaonan had actually gone.

After all, since her roommate was so secretive and mysterious, it really put her mind at ease.

So, the next night before she went to sleep, she purposely only ate a little bit of rice and drank a big glass of water before bed.

As expected, I couldn't sleep soundly. I was half-awake throughout the first half of the night, my stomach rumbling.

Until...

A sudden cool breeze blew across her face.

Ning Yuan, with a jolt of energy, instantly felt completely awake.

She suddenly turned her head and sure enough, saw that there was no one around. But under the moonlight, she saw the window beside her quietly closing without a sound.

A tall figure was cast on the window paper, it couldn't be anyone but Rong Zhaonan!

Ning Yuan held her breath nervously, waiting for him to close the window. Then, from the crack in the window, she pulled out a thin wire and secured the latch from inside.

As it turns out, Rong Zhaonan didn't leave through the door, but through the window, and he even made it look like the window was closed from the inside.

Ning Yuan felt a chill run down her spine. If this person were a thief or an assassin, they wouldn't leave any trace, and no one would ever be able to catch them.

She quietly watched from the window slit where Rong Zhao'nan was heading, she quickly got up and dressed, hurried to lock the door and went after him.

What is this person doing They're always sneaking around at night, at least give us a heads up!

Those red armbands and those people who were watching him so closely, what if someone came to check on him in the middle of the night How would she explain it

This cheap wife of his is going to get him beaten up, she's been living in fear for days. Ning Yuan can't take it anymore.

She decided to investigate on her own.

At least Rong Zhaonan didn't disappear all at once.

She knew Rong Zhaonan was a very alert person and didn't dare to get close. She only followed that tall, silent figure from afar.

The opponent was agile, moving through the forest paths as if they were alone. She could only chase desperately to keep up, barely managing not to lose sight of them.

After walking for about an hour, Rong Zhaonan suddenly stopped and turned his head to give her a cold glance.

Ning Yuan was so scared that she jumped, quickly crouching down.

When she woke up again, she found—oh crap, the person was gone!

Ning Yuan was stunned. She never dared to go up the mountain alone at night, what should she do now

It was eerily quiet all around, shrouded in a hazy moonlight. The air was cold and oppressive, filled only with the chirping of crickets and night birds, along with strange, eerie calls from some unknown animal.

She suddenly panicked, looking around but she couldn't see Rong Zhaonan anywhere.

She lost the person!

Ning Yuan only then realized she had done a stupid thing - she, a young woman who had never been up a mountain at night, had followed someone and gotten lost in the vast mountains under the moonlight!

What a thoughtless thing to do!

Fear caused her to whisper his name brokenly, "Rong Zhaonan... Rong Zhaonan..."

But only the silent night and the eerie growls of some unknown beast answered her.

No, I have to go down the mountain! It's the 1970s now, and the environment is good. She remembers what the old people in the village said: besides snakes on Dàqiānshān Mountain, there are bears, jackals, and even wolves!

Ning Yuan hurried back, turning around as quickly as possible.

But after walking for ten minutes, she realized she seemed to be lost!

Ning Yuan's eyes were red with panic. She pinched her thigh hard, forcing herself to calm down.

No, don't cry, don't panic!

Panicking and running around blindly can lead to injuries, exhaustion, and worse. If you tumble into a hole, ravine, or cliff, or startle an animal, it could be disastrous!

She took a few deep breaths, trying hard to remember how she had come down the mountain when she went up to chop wood during the day. Where was the village located in the mountains Slowly, she began to make her way down.

The sky was covered by the forest, and the Big Dipper was invisible. But there were many tree trunks with moss on them on the north side.

The village is located on the south side of Dàqīng Mountains.

According to the knowledge she had learned about differentiating directions before, Ning Yuan rubbed against the tree trunk and picked up a branch as a walking stick.

She carefully and clumsily made her way out, silently praying not to encounter any snakes or wild animals.

After walking for almost half an hour, we still didn't see any lights from the village.

Ning Yuan couldn't hold back her tears any longer. She wiped them away, tightened her grip on the branch, and slowly continued on her way.

She had finally been reborn, she absolutely couldn't lose her life here! She had to find where the villagers usually went to chop wood!

But this time, after only a few steps, she suddenly felt her stick hit something soft.

Then that thing suddenly let out a strange humming sound: "Squeak..."

Then, suddenly, a large black shadow stood up and let out a "huruhu" sound towards her.

Under the moonlight, Ning Yuan's eyes widened in alarm as she saw a ferocious wild boar with menacing fangs grinning at her from just a short distance away!

That wild boar looked enormous, almost two hundred to three hundred pounds, and was snarling angrily at her.

And she just accidentally hit a soft, squish thing with her stick – it was a couple of little wild piglets!

Damn it! Ning Yuan's pupils dilated.

Black bears aren't as aggressive or ferocious as wild boars, and they're not as strong. If you get hit by one or bitten, your bones will break and you could die!

The key is that there's more than just one wild boar, it's a whole litter, with four or five wild boars with menacing eyes and sharp tusks!!

Ning Yuan's legs turned to jelly, and she slowly retreated.

Seeing the leader pig's glowing green eyes in the night, fixed on her, and bowing its head, she instinctively knew the pig was charging at her!

As the wild boar charged at her with a sudden fury, Ningyuan let out a shriek and turned to run frantically up the mountain!

She still remembers that when a wild boar chases you, you shouldn't run downhill. Not only can you not outrun it, but you're also more likely to panic and fall to your death!

Ning Yuan ran desperately, listening to the roar of the beast behind her and the sound of trees breaking.

The night wind howled in her ear, she ran so fast her heart felt like it would burst out of her chest, and her lungs ached.

Adrenaline surged through her, and she suddenly remembered - the tree! She needed to get up that massive oak, the kind wild boars couldn't even knock over!

Ning Yuan dashed towards a thick, sturdy tree, not daring to look back. She scrambled up it with all her might, using both hands and feet.

As she grabbed the lowest branch, hauling herself up and tucking her legs in, the trunk of the tree lurched violently.

A wild boar charged fiercely.

"Ah——!" She scrambled upwards, straining to pull herself up.

The enraged beasts continued to ram into the trees frantically, and Ning Yuan almost fell off. She clung desperately to the trunk with all her might.

She wouldn't die here!

The next moment—

"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!" Several sharp sounds pierced the air as something unknown came flying through.

Ning Yuan suddenly felt the wild boar's impact on the tree lessened. She instinctively lowered her head and saw several arrows deeply embedded in the backs of the wild boars.

The air was thick with the heavy scent of blood.

The wounded beasts grew more furious, lowering their heads and charging at the tall, arrow-wielding figure with sharp fangs like launched projectiles.

The tall, agile figure moved swiftly with a gleaming blade in hand. He stooped low, skillfully drawing his bow, then in a flash, flipped out two more knives with both hands.

With a flash of his blade, he surged into the beast horde like a sharp arrow.

The shadow's cold hand rose, the blade fell, a symphony of blood and beastly roars.The operation timed out after 30001 milliseconds with 0 out of 0 bytes received.
