Zhou Xiaozhou tiptoed back onto the wooden bed, breathed a sigh of relief, and turned to look at Wu Sanmei. Fortunately, she was sleeping soundly and did not wake up.

But after turning over and facing Wu Sanmei, she couldn't fall asleep again. She turned over again with her back to Wu Sanmei, and Zhou Xiaozhou began to review the situation.

In fact, there was nothing to review. She had thought about the events of the past two days many times, and there was nothing serious.

There was nothing wrong with her route, the navigation on her cell phone was correct, the road under her feet was correct, and there was nothing wrong with calling this village Lai'an Village.

The problem is the tunnel.

She should never, ever have walked into that tunnel.

These past two days, she has been running around the village despite her sick body. Is it easy for her?

It takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone, so your foot is so swollen that it really doesn't hurt at all? You must be kidding.

Zhou Xiaozhou endured the humiliation and bore the heavy burden.

Unfortunately, I have walked around most of the village, visited everywhere, and heard a lot from the people here, but no one has mentioned that to enter their village, one has to go through a tunnel.

Where the hell did this tunnel come from?

Could it be that she encountered him while traveling through the tunnel of time and space?

Or did you encounter aliens?

Or have we walked into a large-scale new real-life scam?

She had checked everywhere, but she didn't see any cameras! With technology so advanced now, what pinhole cameras could she not have discovered?

Zhou Xiaozhou was thinking wildly, and the more he thought, the more confused his mind became. After all, he had walked a long way today and was a little nervous. He fell asleep soon.

In the next room, someone couldn't sleep.

Old Wu was awakened by his son Wu Wen.

Old people don’t sleep much, and if they are woken up in the middle of their sleep, it will be difficult for them to fall asleep again.

Moreover, the news his son brought to him also made him a little worried.

It is said that Wu Wen listened to his father's arrangements and decided to go up the mountain to take a look.

As soon as he walked out of the house, he heard the fence door creak open and someone followed him out.

He hid in the dark and took a closer look, and saw the figure of a graceful young woman sneaking out of his house.

His wife is old and her figure is out of shape due to having children. Her daughter is indeed that thin, but she is only thirteen years old and not that tall, and her figure is not that curvy.

The person who left home could only be Zhou Xiaozhou, who was staying in his house. He waited until the person was far away before he followed him on tiptoe.

From afar, he saw the girl walk into the cemetery and dance, which scared him a lot.

In fact, he always felt that there was something wrong with this girl, but the villagers were so eager for their children to learn to read and study that they refused to listen to anyone and insisted on keeping the girl.

He had no choice but to pay attention to everything and observe carefully, but alas, the fox's tail was finally exposed.

Finally, I don’t know what Miss Zhou did. She put her hands on her chest and her fingers flew for a long time.

He guessed that maybe she was performing a ritual, and when the ceremony was completed, he saw Miss Zhou bowing towards the grave.

She has done something bad and is afraid that her ancestors in their graves will come and catch her!

He followed Miss Zhou back to the Wu family's yard, woke up his father and told him all the strange things he had seen.

Old Wu couldn't figure out what this girl did.

The third sister also said that she was afraid of ghosts and that she was scared half to death at the old cemetery at noon.

If Lin Dayou hadn't pulled her down, she would have fallen off the big rock.

But from what his son Wu Wen said, he was very brave to go to the cemetery alone in the middle of the night and do such a bad thing.

I really have no idea where this person came from and what he is doing here.

Could it be that it was really a monster in the mountains that took on a different form?

You know, there are a lot of monsters in their Qingfeng Mountain, many of which they have never seen in their lives, and many of them come to the village every few days to take advantage of them.

The father and son discussed it for a long time but couldn't come up with a plan.

Old Wu simply slapped his head and came up with an idea: "Well, Ah Wen, you should leave immediately and go to the mountains. When you see the mountains, tell him about the situation and listen to his opinion. Should we keep this girl or what? Let him make a decision."

Wu Wen wasn't very good at other things, but he was the best at listening to his father: "Okay, Dad, after I leave, will you still let my third sister look after that girl? Will she be in danger?"

As a father, I still feel sorry for my daughter.

Old Wu narrowed his eyes and said in a muffled voice, "That can't happen. I'm watching. There are still so many people in the village. Nothing will happen. Don't worry!"

Looking at the sky outside the window, it was already past midnight and the moon had already set in the east. Old Wu urged: "It's late at night, you should leave quickly. When the sun rises, those creatures will wake up and it will be difficult to travel."

"Okay, Dad, I'm leaving now. You continue to sleep." Wu Wen left so cleanly that even Zhang didn't know he had come back so late at night.

It was not until dawn that Zhou Xiaozhou got up from the wooden bed.

People are just so fickle. She slept sorely on the hard bed yesterday, but she slept so soundly last night.

Although his feet were still a little swollen, Zhou Xiaozhou felt that his movements were no longer restricted.

This morning's breakfast was finally no longer vegetable porridge, but a bowl of rice soup and a multi-grain pancake.

It was the kind of coarse grain that Ms. Liu liked to eat, saying that it was very healthy, but Zhou Xiaozhou just felt that it made his throat sore.

But people are made of iron and food is made of steel. Zhou Xiaozhou hadn't had a proper meal for several meals, so this morning, she ignored Wu Xiaobao's expectant gaze and ate up all the food.

Soon, under the sharp gaze of Old Wu, the three of them arrived at Lai'an Village Primary School, no, it was the primary school of Lai'an Village.

Zhou Xiaozhou thought he had arrived early, but he didn't expect that the classroom was already packed with people.

There are quite a lot of people coming today. Zhou Xiaozhou counted about twenty people. Among them, most are familiar faces from yesterday, but there are also quite a few new faces.

Zhou Xiaozhou soon discovered that the younger children who were of admission age were sitting on the floor of the classroom with their cushions, while the younger children were held by the older ones and sat on the fence of the straw hut.

Most of the older ones were girls, such as Zhao Da Niu, who was now sitting by the fence, staring at Zhao Xiao Er with a bad look on her face.

Yes, this school has undergone some new changes compared to yesterday. Originally there were walls on two sides, but now there is a fence on the remaining two sides, and a row of wooden boards are nailed on the fence, which can be regarded as simple stools. It looks like the beauty chairs on pavilions, but it is a simplified version.

I really didn't expect that the people in this village have so many ideas and can make this thing.

The children had different reactions when they saw the teacher. Some were very excited and made faces at Zhou Xiaozhou, as they had eaten delicious food together yesterday. Some were a little shy, but tried hard to show themselves and give the teacher a good impression. Others had a look of resentment, with unyielding tears on their faces, as if they had been forced into prostitution.

This made Zhou Xiaozhou a little confused. There shouldn’t be any conflict between her and this guy!
