Walking into a cesspit, the best evil widow wants to stand up

The village chief didn't waste any more words with them and adopted a roundabout tactic: "Okay, I'll talk to the county magistrate when the time comes, and we can discuss it. Each household should send a young and strong laborer to sign up with me first~"

"..."

The village chief called a meeting, and Shen Ping was not idle either. She went to Carpenter Li and asked him to stop what he was doing and make a batch of chicken buses first. The goal was to make 20 to 30 buses, but of course she would make as many as she could.

If the road is repaired, the chicken bus will come in handy. It is too strenuous to carry it by human power, and the speed is also slow. But it is definitely different if the chicken bus is used. One trip can at least equal three or four trips by human power. You need to learn to use tools appropriately.

Carpenter Li also knew that there was food in the back mountain. Of course, this matter was important, so he stopped his work without Shen Ping telling him.

Fearing that Carpenter Li would have a psychological burden, Shen Ping spoke up: "Carpenter Li, this road cannot be repaired so quickly for the time being. You should first finish the chicken bus, and I will pay you later."

"Look at what you said, am I that kind of person?" Carpenter Li patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, I'll take care of it. I'll definitely do it!"

With Carpenter Li's words, Shen Ping felt relieved.

County Magistrate Xu also worked non-stop. He first held a meeting with the village heads, and then discussed and waited for the time to set out.

Shen Ping did not sleep well that night. After all, there was so much food on the mountain. If some people knew about it in advance, they might take risks.

Thinking that Captain Li was the only one on the mountain, Shen Ping tossed and turned. The grain occupied such a large area, how could Captain Li take care of it all by himself?

Besides, it is dark now and the night is so long that no one knows what will happen. What's more, hungry wolves appear in Qingfeng Mountain from time to time.

Although Captain Li is skilled in martial arts, it is still dangerous for him to face these fearless beasts. After all, he is within the Kaoshan Village and Shen Ping has the obligation to ensure his safety. After thinking about it, Shen Ping changed into casual clothes.

Before setting off, Shen Ping checked the time. It was past 23pm. Most people had already fallen asleep, but for some, another hour or two would be a good time for them to set out.

Shen Ping knew the topography of Qingfeng Mountain very well. She could find it even with her eyes closed, not to mention that she had night vision.

Shen Ping took a deep breath and rushed out. The darkness was her home ground. She could be completely defenseless and take off all her disguises just to go into battle lightly.

The dry branches and stones on the roadside left Shen Ping's footprints. With their help, Shen Ping flew faster and farther. After a while, Shen Ping appeared on the top of Qingfeng Mountain.

Standing on the top of Qingfeng Mountain and looking down, Shen Ping could see a flash of fire in the darkness. That should be Captain Li.

Shen Ping looked around with her night vision glasses and found that her guess was correct. It was Captain Li. At this moment, he was still chewing dry food and looked a little tired.

It was quite far away and Shen Ping couldn't see clearly. She tried squinting her eyes to take a look, and the result made her excited again.

Shen Ping suddenly discovered that she could adjust the focus of her eyes with her mind. She could see the end of the Grand Canyon in the dark and could see things 3 or 4 kilometers away.

Shen Ping jumped onto the branch of the crooked tree and sat down, leaning her back against the tree and closing her eyes.

Shen Ping fell asleep unknowingly and was suddenly awakened by a rustling sound. Shen Ping immediately became alert and searched in the direction where the sound came from.

Suddenly, Shen Ping found two people coming about 100 meters away from the crooked tree. Shen Ping thought about it and quickly flashed into the space.

He saw two people sneaking up to the crooked tree and looking around. Now he could see clearly that one of them was Liu Puppy.

There is another one who also has a pointed chin and monkey cheeks. He is Li Dasuo, a second-rate guy in the village. He is also an old bachelor. His family situation is the same as Liu Pupi's, with only his father left.

Li Dasuo is lazy and always does some sneaky things. For this reason, his father Li Dabing often covers for him.

"Hey, Liu Popi, we are at the top of the mountain now. Where is that place? Is your information reliable?"

"Li Dasuo, I heard it from the village chief himself, how could he be wrong?" Liu Popi said this, but he was still a little unconfident. After all, he didn't know where it was, he just heard the village chief say roughly in this direction.

"Look, is there a light over there?" Liu Popi said, pointing down.

"Hey, it's true!" Li Dasuo became excited.

Liu Popi crossed his arms, pinched his chin with his thumb and index finger, and looked thoughtful: "I heard someone was watching there, so it must be this."

Suddenly, in the darkness, Li Dasuo discovered the climbing rope and shouted in a low voice: "Brother Liu, you are right, the rope is still here."

"Let's go! Let's go down." Liu Popi waved his hand and said, "The place is so wide, let's keep our voices down."

Only then did Shen Ping remember that she had tied the rope herself, but she was in a hurry and forgot to put it away.

Liu Popi and his companion slid down the climbing rope. After a while, they reached the underground and walked forward carefully.

"Why are there so many of these things growing here? And how do I eat them?" Standing in the cassava field, Li Dasuo whispered.

"Let's dig it up and take a look." As he said this, Liu Popi started digging with the small shovel he carried with him.

Originally, Shen Ping wanted to use a hidden weapon to alert Captain Li, but after listening to the conversation between the two, the corners of her mouth curled up and she suddenly changed her mind.

"Hey, the root of this thing is so big, this might be the thing they said is edible."

The two carefully dug a few of them, estimating that there were about several dozen kilograms. They were very excited. They didn't expect this thing to be so productive. They just didn't know how it tasted.

They hadn't eaten enough to begin with, and after this meal, they felt hungry.

Looking at the pile of cassava in front of him, Liu Popi said uncertainly: "Dasuo, I'm hungry. Do you think this thing can be eaten raw?"

Li Dasuo shook his head: "It's hard to say, I haven't seen this thing either!"

"Gurgle, gurgle~" Liu Popi's stomach rumbled.

"I don't care about so many things. I'm so hungry now. I'll try one first." As he said that, Liu Popi peeled off the skin of the cassava and started to take a bite.

When he took a bite, Liu Popi's face wrinkled immediately: "Oh my god, this thing is bitter! How can I eat it?" Then he threw the cassava away.

"No way?"

Li Dasuo didn't believe it, so he took a bite and immediately spat out everything in his mouth: "It's bitter, really unpalatable."

"Isn't it possible that the village chief has been fooled by them? How can this thing be eaten?" Liu Popi said angrily.

"I thought they found something good, but I didn't expect it to be this. This thing is bitter, how can I eat it? Maybe it's even poisonous!"

"Let's go, let's go. Why don't we go back? It's dark and scary here!" Li Dasuo suggested.

They thought there were some good things in the mountains, so they came to try them out and take something back with them. They didn't expect it to be this thing, bitter and astringent, so they decided to go back immediately.
