Academician of a Great Power: Reborn as an Educated Youth in 1977

Chapter 43 Can you take me with you?

One of them is at the head of the village and the other is in the middle of the village.

What was He Shan doing outside his house so early in the morning?

"Ah? Lin Ze, you...are you awake? Are you going out?"

Lin Ze estimated that it should only be around six in the morning.

He Shan came to see him so early, something must be wrong.

Eighty percent, they didn’t even eat.

"Have you eaten? Come in quickly."

"Oh, I, I, I...I've eaten, I won't go in."

"What do you have to do with me?"

He Shan asked nervously: "Lin Ze, you...are you going to go up the mountain?"

"I……"

Lin Ze looked at the sky. He had never thought about going up so early. He just opened the door and swept the ground at the door.

"I'll go today, but it's too early."

"Can you take me?"

"you?"

Lin Ze looked at He Shanlai carefully.

Under the patched linen clothes, a pair of slender, weak arms was exposed.

Looks fragile.

Even the shoes have holes.

It’s not that I look down on He Shan. Who doesn’t have a few patches on their clothes these days?

It’s just that He Shan is a girl. She can’t even eat enough. How can she have the strength to go up the mountain?

You know, even Zhuzhu, Tietou, Sangou and the rest were exhausted from the last mountain hike.

Not to mention her.

"you……"

Just as he was about to speak, Lin Ze thought of He Shan's family situation and immediately understood why He Shan insisted on going up the mountain with him.

When the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back. After thinking about it again, Lin Ze said: "He Shan, I know you may... let's do this. I have eight cents, nine cents, one yuan and one yuan... and one yuan and three. You take the dime first."

Lin Ze is not a rich man, so this piece of money is probably half of his wealth.

If someone were to search Lin Ze's home now, they would probably search everything but not even find three dollars.

This three yuan was given to Lin Ze by Wang Jinshui, Wang Dong and others yesterday.

Because they ate Lin Ze's roast chicken, they felt a little guilty and stuffed it into Lin Ze's pocket.

Unexpectedly, He Shan was very stubborn, "I don't want money, I mean, I don't want your money... I... I want to use my own strength to make money! Brother Lin Ze, what you said last night, when you go up the mountain I can earn seven or eight yuan per trip, I...I beg you..."

puff.

Speaking of this, He Shan actually knelt down in front of Lin Ze.

This scene happened to be seen by Wang Tingting who was walking out of the door.

"Shanshan, what are you doing? Get up quickly."

Lin Ze also hurriedly stepped forward to help He Shan.

Knowing that He Shan wanted to follow Lin Ze up the mountain, Wang Tingting persuaded her, "Brother Lin, just let her go."

However, after finishing speaking, Wang Tingting whispered something in Lin Ze's ear, "Take care of her, she is quite strong."

Lin Ze couldn't bear it, so he nodded and agreed.

He Shan cried with joy when she saw him, and kept saying thank you to Lin Ze.

Soon after, Zhuzi, Sangou, Goudan, Tietou and others came to Lin Ze's house one after another.

Lin Ze confessed yesterday, so these people no longer hide.

In addition to them, several villagers came, some young and some in their 40s.

Lin Ze lost, there were 18 people in total, which was not too many, so he took these people and set off towards the back mountain.

The process went very smoothly and no sudden dangers were encountered.

Except that the road was a bit long and some people were left behind, there were basically no stops.

Those left behind are older people, those over 40 years old, whose physical strength has declined, and over time, they will not be able to keep up with everyone else.

In the past, Lin Ze, Zhu Zhu and others could definitely reach the area where wild soybeans grow in half a day.

But today, they walked from [-] a.m. to [-] p.m., giving them an extra three hours.

This also made Lin Ze decide that he would never take villagers over 40 years old up the mountain next time. This was not a matter of prejudice, but for the sake of everyone's personal safety.

Once it gets dark, the danger here will triple, even five or ten times!

One thing surprised Lin Ze, and that was He Shan.

As the only woman, He Shan did not fall behind and walked behind Lin Ze all the time. Her physical strength seemed to be better than Zhu Zhu and others.

This made Lin Ze secretly sigh in his heart, no difficulty can defeat a person's strong mentality.

He Shan was afraid that Lin Ze would not take her with him next time, so she worked extra hard and treated herself like a robot.

We came to the area where wild soybeans grow.

Zhuzi immediately invited everyone to pick, and even taught everyone how to pick wild soybeans in an old-fashioned way.

This harvest went very smoothly.

Everyone packed two bags.

He Shan even brought three bags.

It's just that the idea is good, but I was already very tired when I came here. Although I said it would be easier when going down the mountain, carrying three bags will definitely not make it any easier. On the contrary, it will make me even more tired.

Once it falls and crushes the wild soybeans in the bag, its value will be greatly reduced.

What to worry about.

When we went back, many people fell down.

The bags of the uncles who were over 40 years old had been pricked by thorns, and the wild soybeans inside had been crushed into something unknown.

Including He Shan, who was carrying three bags, fell several times.

Because of this, it takes longer to go back than when you came.

it's getting dark.

But the crowd only walked a third of the way.

Based on this calculation, it is estimated that it will take at least ten o'clock to return to the village!

"I told you not to follow me, but you must follow me!"

Zhuzhu stopped and walked along the way, waiting for the uncles behind him, and he couldn't help but complain.

Including Tietou, Sangou and others who were silent at first, in the end, they couldn't help it anymore.

The village uncles were also quite embarrassed and kept saying sorry.

"I didn't expect it to be this far, I'm so sorry."

"Stop talking and leave!" Zhu Zhu urged.

The villager uncle sat on the ground and still didn't get up.

He waved his hand and said out of breath: "No, I... I'm so tired, let me take a rest."

Zhuzi raised his head and glanced at the sky, "It will get dark soon. Brother Daze said that after dark, it will be more dangerous here, and all kinds of wild animals will come out by then. I said Uncle Six, please don't hurt us, okay?"

The villager Liu Shu felt a little guilty, so he gritted his teeth and stood up with all his strength, carrying the bag and continuing to move forward.

As night fell, the stars twinkled.

More than a dozen people were still walking on the mountain path.

At the same time, the villagers became anxious and came to the intersection leading to the back mountain to wait.

"Ugh-"

In the distance, there was a howl of wolves.

This made the waiting villagers gradually become anxious.

"What's going to happen to them?" Wang Dajun, Zhuzi's father, felt uncomfortable all over. He couldn't sit or stand.
