Reborn in the red age

Chapter 62: Run to northern Myanmar and become a warlord
"Brother, brother, brother, I caught a rabbit with my trap. We have meat to eat tonight."

Li Qingfeng, who was making the bed in the room, heard Wang Weimin's excited voice outside and quickly came out to check the situation.

When he saw a gray rabbit in Wang Weimin's hand, a smile appeared on his face. He quickly stepped forward and took the rabbit from Wang Weimin's hand and weighed it: "Okay, we have been working on increasing revenue and reducing expenditure for half a month, and finally we can meet you." It’s working. Let’s eat rabbit as a snack in the evening.”

In the open space in front of the kitchen, there was a kitchen knife placed in front of the five people. Between the five of them, you looked at me and I looked at yours. No one had the intention to take the knife.

After a stalemate for a while, Qingfeng Li stepped forward and picked up the cleaned kitchen knife.

"This rabbit meat is a bit bad, Wang Weimin, why don't you get a pheasant or something?" Ma Wenhui held a rabbit's front leg in her hand and gnawed on the meat on the front leg while complaining in disgust.

Wang Weimin, who finally caught a prey, was not happy. He put down the rabbit leg in his hand and said angrily: "It would be nice to eat some. I even picked you up. There are traps everywhere at the foot of the mountain. I can catch a rabbit." Rabbit would be great”

"Weimin is right, it's good to eat some. Don't go to Shu to look forward to it." Wang Weimin has made a great contribution this time, and Li Qingfeng must stand up and praise him.

Wang Weimin, who was praised by Qingfeng Li, glanced at Ma Wenhui proudly and continued to chew on his rabbit leg.

After swallowing the rabbit meat in his mouth, Li Qingfeng looked at the dried rabbit skins and said thoughtfully: "It seems that these traps are still useful. After the autumn harvest is over, we will all go down the mountain to get more traps." Just a rabbit, make a rabbit fur hat or something.”

Qingfeng Li's proposal was approved by everyone. It's really cold here. It's only September and we have to burn the stove at night. If the temperature drops at this rate, we'll probably have to burn the kang at night by the end of the month.

While everyone was eating, the door of the Educated Youth Courtyard was pushed open from the outside, and the captain led a few people in.

Li Qingfeng was speechless when he saw the visitor. Could it be that some rabbit was a trap set up by the villagers?

I saw the captain leading a few people to the crowd, and with a serious face, he introduced the guests: "Let me introduce you. These three are comrades of our commune committee. They are here tonight to get to know us." Come on, what are the thoughts and trends of the educated youths? Let’s all chirp.”

Everyone was a little stunned for a moment and didn't understand what happened, but they still applauded under the look of the captain.

After the people from the committee came over and shouted a few slogans, they called people into the room one by one to talk, which made everyone nervous, especially Zhao Haixia and Wang Xianglan, who had just gone to the commune to engage in speculation a few days ago. Suddenly someone came down to talk, and the two of them thought they had been reported.

Seeing the tension between the two of them, while they were talking inside, Qingfeng Li approached the captain and asked quietly what happened.

Glancing at the dim light coming from the window in the room, the captain whispered the reason: "Hey, it's not a big deal. It has nothing to do with you. It's just that a female educated youth from another place ran away with her luggage. The superiors asked to find all of them. Educated youths can just talk and answer people’s questions honestly.”

Hearing that this was the case, Li Qingfeng breathed a sigh of relief. What did he think? He was just an educated youth. This was not uncommon.

This place is not far from the border, only more than 100 kilometers away. With today's foot power, people can prepare two days of dry food and run out of the country. Among the many educated youths who come here to join the queue, there will always be some who are more wild. Every year, a few educated youths cannot bear it and run away to the north.This happens all along the border. In the southwest, there were cases where educated youths fled to northern Myanmar and eventually became warlords.

After knowing the reason, I asked a few people to wait for a while and they could just answer whatever they asked if they were busy. It wasn't much, so just calm down.

The people from the committee didn't stay here long, they just came here to go through the motions. This kind of thing happens every year. If you want to run away, you can't stop them. You can't tie up everyone while they're sleeping, right?The people on the committee have long been used to it.

It is worth mentioning that when sending the people from the committee out, Zhou Yongjun directly asked about when the house building fees for educated youths would be allocated. Several people from the committee looked at each other, laughed, and turned around without looking back. Left the small courtyard for educated youth.

This caused Zhou Yongjun to curse in a low voice at the backs of these people.

When they went to bed at night, the discussion in the boys' dormitory was quite lively. Even Wang Weimin and Sun Guoqing put aside their grudges for the time being and discussed the educated youth who ran away to the north.

There is nothing in this place. Every day I either work or sleep. There are no other books except the Little Red Book. The depression in my heart cannot be released. It is not easy for such a big thing to happen, and this group of people suddenly get excited.

"Brother, I heard from the captain that the one who ran away this time was a woman. How could a woman be so bold?" Wang Weimin looked at the flickering fire next to Qingfeng Li's position and tilted his head towards this side. Curious, he asked his doubts.

Exhaling the smoke in his lungs, Qingfeng Li looked up at the dark beams and said calmly: "It's hard to say this kind of thing. If a person disappears, there is another possibility besides escaping. Without conclusive evidence, , it’s hard to say whether the other party really ran away.”

"Another possibility? What do you mean? What else can we do besides running away?"

Everyone who was discussing stopped talking and turned to look at Qingfeng Li, waiting for Qingfeng Li to say what the other possibility was.

Seeing that everyone was quiet and waiting for his answer, Qingfeng Li threw away the cigarette butt, turned over and sat up: "I'm dead. After being killed, I found a place to bury it, sneaked to the educated youth dormitory, and took the other person's luggage." Take it away and hide it, and fake the signs of missing people. Our place is not far from the border. Every year, a few people run north. It is easy to think of people running north."

"Brother Qingfeng, your thoughts are too dark. How is that possible? How can there be such a bad person?" Liu Junqing is only 16 years old this year and has not had much exposure to the unpredictable nature of people's hearts. He questioned Li Qingfeng's statement.

Qingfeng Li didn't argue with him. Anyway, he couldn't sleep and just talked about it, and whether it was true or not had nothing to do with him.

Within a few days, news came that the female educated youth's body had been found in a local mountain, and that it was the family where the female educated youth stayed overnight that had done something to her.

This incident caused such a big fuss that even the commune where the Qingshan Brigade was located was affected. The day after the incident, the commune paid the housing construction fees for female educated youths and once again emphasized the need to strengthen the support for female educated youths. Protect.
