The supernatural boss of the end of the world is doing well after crossing into the book

Lin Xi didn't plan to tell Chu Ran about this, for fear that she would blame herself. As for Shen Hao, she was confident that she could deal with him, so there was no need to let her know and make her worry.

"Okay, you must be hungry too! Let's eat something first." Lin Xi took out the food and ate with Chu Ran.

What they didn't know was that the village chief had already taken the police deep into the mountains and was getting closer and closer to the collapsed cave.

"It should be around here! I won't have heard it wrong..." The village chief touched the back of his head in annoyance.

"Comrade, don't worry... let's look for him carefully..." The police officer who followed him didn't want to see him blaming himself, so he quickly spoke out to comfort him.

"Then let's look for it separately...it will be faster this way." The village chief nodded in agreement.

"Okay, then we'll meet here in ten minutes regardless of whether we find it or not."

"Xiao Li, just follow this comrade!"

An older man among the public security comrades who came gave orders in an orderly manner.

"Yes, sir..."

In this way, the four people divided into two teams and began to look for suspicious places in the mountains.

"Comrade, look at that... doesn't it look weird?" Xiao Li pointed to the place where the collapsed cave was.

"It seems so... Let's go over and take a look." The village chief didn't see it clearly either, and suggested going over to take a look.

"Okay, let's go over and take a look..." Xiao Li didn't hesitate at all. He wanted to take a look to be more sure.

In less than a minute, the two men arrived there. They were both shocked by the scene in front of them. Looking at the pile of soil, they became more certain that this was the place they were looking for.

"I'll go tell the superiors. Comrade, please wait here for a moment..." Xiao Li was in a hurry to find someone.

"Oh! Okay..." The village chief really wanted to say that he didn't want to stay here alone, but when he saw Xiao Li's anxious look, he didn't say it out loud.

After Xiao Li left, the village chief felt a chill in the air and got goose bumps all over his body. He couldn't help hugging his arms and rubbing them!

Why does he feel that there is something weird here? As soon as this idea came out, the village chief quickly suppressed it. Feudal superstition is not popular now...

After waiting for a few minutes, Xiao Li brought the other two over.

"It seems to be here..." One of them looked at everything in front of him and finally confirmed it.

"But we don't have any tools and can't dig it open!" Xiao Li looked at the pile of earth that looked like a small hill and felt a little troubled. He thought that he couldn't dig it with his hands!

"Since we already know this is the place, let's go back today, find a suitable tool and call some more people to dig next time." The person in charge made the decision!

"Okay, I'll call the young and strong men in the village next time so that we can dig faster!" The village chief also agreed with him. He just wanted to leave here quickly.

The four of them made clear marks along the way, for fear that they would not be able to find the place the next time they came.

"Comrade Village Chief, we are going back now. Remember to tell the villagers not to rush up the mountain. We haven't figured out the whole story yet!"

Before returning to town, the police officer gave the village chief repeated instructions.

"Comrade Public Security, I understand. I will tell the villagers right away."

The village chief also knew that this matter could not wait, so as soon as the police left, he immediately went to get a loudspeaker to inform the villagers.

"Gather, gather...Everyone, gather at the threshing ground. I have something to notify you..."

The village chief's voice spread to every corner of the village, and all the adults and children in the village rushed to the threshing ground as soon as possible!

"What do you think the village chief is going to say? He called everyone here in such a hurry."

"Who knows? We'll know in a minute..."

Many villagers were talking about this matter, and each of them was full of curiosity.

"Everyone, please be quiet..." When the village chief saw that most people had arrived, he started speaking with a loud speaker.

The villagers immediately stopped talking after hearing the village chief's words. Even Lin Xi had to admire the village chief's appeal.

"I believe everyone has heard the rumbling sound! If I'm not mistaken, it should be spies from the island country who have come into the mountains. I just don't know what they are planning."

"The higher-ups mean that until this matter is clarified, no one should go up the mountain, lest something bad happen..."

"Also, the village will organize 20 young men to go to the mountains to help tomorrow. Of course, they won't go there for nothing. Each young man will get 15 work points. If you want to go, come and sign up..."

The village chief said everything he wanted to say in one breath, and then stood quietly aside to see how the villagers reacted.

"Village chief, when can we go to the mountain?" The person asking the question was a villager who often went to the mountain to catch wild animals.

"It depends on the decision of the higher-ups. We will inform you when there is news."

The village chief was not sure when they could go up the mountain, so he brought up the issue from above to block their questions.

"Village chief, can I ask what we are doing in the mountains?"

A young man of about eighteen or nineteen raised his hand with a red face. Lin Xi had heard of him from the villagers. His name was Li An. All his family members were gone, leaving only his sister Li Ning, who had been dependent on him since childhood!

"Are you sure you want to go?"

When the village chief saw how thin he was, he couldn't help but worry about him.

He knew that Li An and his sister had a hard time, and he did his best to help them. However, in that era, everyone was short of food, and he couldn't guarantee that they would have enough food and clothing, he just could keep them from starving to death!

"Well, I'll go..." Li Ning nodded firmly. Even if he worked hard for a whole day, he could not get the full ten work points. At most, he could only get eight work points. One day in the mountains was equivalent to two days of work in the fields.

"Brother, I'm scared..." Li An's sister Li Ning pulled his arm fearfully, not wanting him to go.

When she was very young, her parents went to the mountains and never came back. Although she was young at the time, she still remembers it.

From then on, the brother and sister lived with their grandparents, but the good times did not last long. Within two years, her grandparents fell ill and died one after another. From then on, they became orphans with no one to rely on, and the burden of life suddenly fell on her twelve-year-old brother.

"Don't be afraid, sister. I will come back safely." Winter is coming soon, and he needs to earn more work points. He also wants to make some dumplings with cabbage and pork stuffing for his sister!

"Yes! Village chief, what are you doing in the mountains? Will there be any danger?"

Another young man from a very difficult family situation asked, he also wanted to earn more work points so that he could celebrate the New Year.

"It's inconvenient to disclose the details, but it's a physical job, so it's not dangerous! As long as you behave yourself and don't run around, your superiors will definitely ensure your safety. You don't have to worry about that." The village chief patted his chest and assured.

"Sister... Look, the village chief has said so. There will definitely be no danger. I promise you that I will not run around... Just stay at home and wait for me."

After making a promise to his sister, Li An went to sign up. He was afraid that if he didn't go now, it would not be his turn later. After all, there were no less than twenty young and middle-aged people in the village.
