The Siheyuan of the Young Educated Youth

Huo Sheng did not hesitate and followed her up the same big tree.

If wolves or lynxes came, he could help her fend them off from below.

If they run now, they will definitely not be able to outrun the beasts.

Qi Feifei climbed to a high place and whistled loudly. The sound was so loud that it could be heard far away in the forest at night.

Then a lynx's "Wow~" sound was heard from the other side.

Qi Feifei confirmed that it must be the mother lynx.

She whistled twice more shortly.

There was no response from the other side.

Hearing the sound, the lynx jumped onto a tree, jumping from one tree to another while shouting "whoo, whoo..." and quickly ran away.

The wolves gathered towards the "whoo" sound.

The two men waited on the tree for a while. It seemed that there was no danger around, so Huo Sheng went down first.

"Wait a moment, I'll go down and take a look."

Huo Sheng clutched the dagger and looked around to make sure there were no wolves guarding nearby.

Only then did Qi Feifei come down.

"Go down slowly, I'll catch you from below."

Qi Feifei quickly slid down from the tree.

Huo Sheng: I feel like I’m redundant.

Qi Feifei put the bean bun on the ground and the two continued walking back.

Qi Feifei is very worried about the lynx mother. What should she do if the wolf pack is guarding her?

I really want to go see it and help it, but when I encounter a pack of wolves, I have no killing power except to enter the courtyard.

"Huo Sheng, were you a soldier before?"

This was the first time Qi Feifei took the initiative to ask about him.

Huo Sheng felt a little happy and said, "Yes."

But he couldn't tell her the specific situation.

Qi Feifei, "Can you help me get a gun?"

Huo Sheng turned serious in an instant, "You want to go into the mountains?"

Qi Feifei, "Yes, I need a real gun, not an air gun, not a musket."

Huo Sheng was very serious.

"This is very dangerous. If you want to fight, I can help you fight back."

Qi Feifei, "I'm not trying to fight anything, I'm trying to defend myself."

Huo Sheng, "If you want to collect mountain products, there is no need to do so."

In fact, Huo Sheng vaguely felt that her request for a gun was related to what happened tonight.

Qi Feifei, "I really need it, can you help me get it? How much does it cost?"

Huo Sheng, "If you need money urgently, I can lend it to you. Just earn money slowly and pay me back. I don't have much to spend money on. There's no need to take such a risk."

Qi Feifei stopped, faced him, and looked up into his eyes.

"This gun is very important to me and I need it very much. Can you help me get one? I will give you the price you need and I will also owe you a favor."

Seeing how persistent she was, Huo Sheng realized that it was indeed dangerous for her to run around in the mountains every day.

"Okay, I'll find a way to get you one. But don't shoot easily near the village..."

Qi Feifei, "I know all this."

Huo Sheng, "I got it and sent it to you."

Qi Feifei, "No need, leave it at your house, I will pick it up when I have time."

She didn't want anyone to know that she had been in contact with a strange man, and she didn't want anyone to know that she had a gun.

"Help me prepare some bullets."

Huo Sheng agreed to her.

When they were almost at the pig farm, Qi Feifei asked Huo Sheng to put his things down and go the rest of the way back by himself.

Huo Sheng thought she didn't want to be seen by her acquaintances, so he agreed.

He prepared to return the same way.

Qi Feifei stopped him.

She showed him the pig farm.

"You can stay there. There are only two men living in the pig farm. Don't go back tonight. It's too dangerous in the mountains. Leave tomorrow during the day.

Remember not to say you know me."

Huo Sheng smiled, agreed to her request, and walked towards the pig farm.

Qi Feifei watched him enter the pig farm for a while and saw him not coming out again, then she put the things into the courtyard.

Put out the "swords, spears, swords and halberds" and go to the collective household with Doubao in a mighty manner.

When Huo Sheng arrived at the pig farm, everyone had already gone to bed.

Old Man Zheng was very surprised. Who would come so late?

When I opened the gate, I saw a young man.

"Excuse me, comrade, who are you looking for?"

Huo Sheng said politely, "Hello, uncle. I am lost and it is dark when I get here. Can I stay for one night? This is my work ID."

Huo Sheng showed his work ID to Old Man Zheng, who could not read a single word.

"Wait a minute, comrade."

After saying that, he closed the door and went to find Lao Qin with his work ID.

There are still a lot of pigs in the farm, so we have to be careful.

Lao Qin had worked all day and was sleeping soundly.

Old man Zheng poked Lao Qin and said, "Lao Qin, Lao Qin, please get up. I'm here to stay the night. Take a look at this work permit."

Lao Qin was woken up, rubbed his eyes and put on his glasses.

Old Man Zheng lit a candle and showed his work permit to Old Qin.

There is power restriction in the mountains, the circuit is not good, and power outages occur frequently.

"Huo Sheng, the driver of the machinery factory, this is stamped with a seal, it's real."

Lao Qin returned the work permit to Old Man Zheng.

He didn't sleep anymore and got dressed. He would probably have to stay in his house.

Sure enough, Old Man Zheng let the person in and led him into Old Qin's house.

His own room, which Widow Gong had just cleaned up, he was reluctant to let others live in it. Even though the young man looked very sleek, it was not acceptable.

Huo Sheng wasn't picky, he had slept everywhere when he was on the march or on missions. It was already very good to have a room with a kang.

Lao Qin lent his mattress to Huo Sheng and covered himself with a quilt.

Fortunately, it’s not too cold now.

The next morning, Huo Sheng helped fill the water tank and chopped a lot of firewood.

Old Man Zheng invited him to dinner, and he didn't refuse. He had a big pancake and cabbage and potato soup, but he only ate half a pack.

After all, with his appetite, one is equivalent to two, which is too much for him to eat.

In the morning, Huo Sheng had a lively chat with Old Man Zheng and Old Qin, and they agreed to come over and play again when they have nothing to do in the future.

He went back only after eating, and before leaving, he left two taels of food coupons and one dollar.

Qi Feifei discussed with Pan Xiaowen in the morning, "Pan Xiaowen, we need a pigpen in the winter, otherwise it will be too cold and the pigs will freeze to death. How about we build a pigpen here on the side of the road?"

Pan Xiaowen listened to whatever Qi Feifei said.

"Okay, what should I do, sis?"

Qi Feifei took a stick and marked a spot on the ground. "In the next few days, you dig a ditch here. I'll go to the mountain to fetch wood. When there's enough wood, I'll find a car to bring it back and we can sandwich it. Sandwich it in the middle here. You can raise your little pig on one side and I'll use the other side."

Pan Xiaowen was very happy to see Qi Feifei also raising pigs, "Sister, you also think raising pigs is good, right?"

Qi Feifei smiled, "Yes, raising pigs is a good thing. Next year when we check the fire, you can hand in your pigs for the task, and kill my pigs, and we will have pork to eat.

You also need to find a way to buy some bran, distiller's grains, bean cakes, etc. to feed the pigs, so that they will grow well."

Qi Feifei and Pan Xiaowen agreed and headed into the mountains.

I hope to see the mother lynx and see if she is safe.

It was a gloomy day, with low clouds and it looked like it was going to rain.
