On the blackboard, he wrote a few big words neatly with chalk: "Work together to overcome difficulties."

People in the yard came out one after another. When they saw the words on the blackboard, they were a little confused, but more curious. Chen Rufeng stood next to the blackboard, waiting for everyone to gather. He had a calm smile on his face, but his heart was full of deep thought about what he was about to say.

"Everyone, the atmosphere in our courtyard has been a little tense recently. I know how you feel and understand your concerns." Chen Rufeng's voice was not loud, but it was loud enough for everyone around to hear clearly. He paused, and his eyes swept across every face, and saw that some people still had doubts in their eyes.

"Shazhu is indeed plotting something bad, and you may already know that." He continued, his voice heavy, "But what I want to tell you is that the best way to solve these problems is not impulsiveness, but calmness and wisdom."

Chen Rufeng's words calmed down the restless crowd. Aunt Liu squeezed in the crowd and looked at Chen Rufeng, with mixed emotions in her heart. Although she was soft-hearted, she didn't want to see the young people in the yard fall into danger because of impulse.

"Brother Rufeng, of course we want to calm down, but you also know that Shazhu is really not joking this time." Someone in the crowd whispered, with a hint of helplessness and anxiety in his tone.

Chen Rufeng nodded, his eyes becoming more determined. "I know everyone's concerns, and I understand that you don't want to put yourself and your family in danger. But we must remember that Siheyuan is our common home. This home requires each of us to face problems calmly and not be swayed by emotions."

He paused to give everyone time to digest his words, then continued, "Shazhu's plot is dangerous, but he is not invincible. We must fight with unity and wisdom, not recklessness and impulsiveness. Everyone must believe that as long as we work together, there is no difficulty that we cannot overcome."

The people in the courtyard gradually quieted down, and Chen Rufeng's words began to work in their hearts. On weekdays, the Siheyuan relied on this harmonious atmosphere to get through every difficult time in peace, and now, they once again felt the importance of this power.

Yi Zhonghai stood behind the crowd and nodded silently. He knew that Chen Rufeng's words were to encourage everyone and remind them to stay calm. He stepped forward and added: "Rufeng is right. Don't lose your judgment because of your momentary emotions. We should solve problems with wisdom, not brute force."

Chen Rufeng glanced at Yi Zhonghai gratefully, and then continued: "So, I hope that from today on, everyone can calm down and keep a clear head. We will find a way to deal with Sha Zhu's conspiracy, but the premise is that we must stay together and not be swayed by emotions."

The atmosphere in the crowd gradually calmed down, and everyone nodded in agreement. They began to understand that impulsiveness would only put them in greater danger, and only by staying calm could they truly protect their homes.

In the next few days, Chen Rufeng and Yi Zhonghai visited every household in the courtyard, calmed everyone's emotions, and reminded them to stay calm. The two moved everyone with their patience and sincerity, and gradually freed the courtyard from the tense atmosphere.

However, Chen Rufeng knew that although everyone had calmed down on the surface, Sha Zhu's conspiracy was still like a time bomb that could explode at any time. He had to find the key point of Sha Zhu's plan as soon as possible to completely resolve the crisis.

"Rufeng, what should we do next?" Yi Zhonghai asked this question after a night visit. They had calmed the people in the yard, but the action was still going on.

Chen Rufeng looked at the night sky, thought for a moment and said, "We can't delay any longer. Now that everyone's emotions have stabilized, we can act more focused. I think we need to find a weakness of Sha Zhu, a place that can catch him off guard."

Yi Zhonghai nodded and approved Chen Rufeng's idea. The two began to plan the next move, preparing to find a breakthrough from Sha Zhu's daily life. They knew that no matter how cunning Sha Zhu was, he would be careless. As long as they seized this carelessness, they could defeat him in one fell swoop.

In the following days, Chen Rufeng and Yi Zhonghai kept observing Sha Zhu's every move and silently collected all the information around him. They knew that this was an endurance race and they could not rush for quick success, but had to move forward step by step until Sha Zhu's conspiracy was exposed.

Every night when everyone was asleep, Chen Rufeng would look through the old notebook in his room. The handwriting inside seemed to remind him that wisdom and patience were the keys to victory. He took a deep breath and silently prayed that he could survive this battle safely.

Chen Rufeng returned home, feeling heavy-hearted. Although he and Yi Zhonghai had gradually stabilized the situation in the courtyard, he knew that this was only a temporary calm, and Sha Zhu's conspiracy was still lurking in the dark and could break out at any time. Whenever he closed his eyes, Sha Zhu's cunning face would appear in his mind, as if secretly mocking his efforts.

Just as his thoughts were in a mess, there was a gentle knock on the door. Chen Rufeng's heart tightened. Who could the visitor be? He walked to the door, opened it gently, and saw that the person standing outside was actually Sha Zhu's sister, He Yushui.

He Yushui has always been a gentle and kind girl. She is always smiling in the courtyard and gets along well with everyone. But today, her face is full of sorrow and there are still tears in her eyes. When Chen Rufeng saw her like this, a complex emotion suddenly surged in his heart.

"Yu Shui, what's wrong? Come in and tell me what's going on." Chen Rufeng tried to make his voice sound calm and warm. He knew that He Yu Shui's arrival might mean some new troubles, but he didn't want to see this kind girl being implicated because of Sha Zhu's affairs.

He Yushui walked into the room timidly, lowering her head, not daring to look Chen Rufeng in the eye. Chen Rufeng took her to sit at the table, poured her a glass of warm water, and tried to calm her down.

"Brother Rufeng, I..." He Yushui's voice was trembling, as if she was trying to suppress the fear and anxiety in her heart. She held the water cup, her hands trembling slightly, obviously emotional.

"Yu Shui, don't be anxious. Just take your time to tell me what's going on." Chen Rufeng said softly. There was comfort in his tone, but in his heart he was nervously guessing the purpose of He Yu Shui's visit.
