Rebirth 1983: The counterattack started from hunting in the mountains

When the chopsticks fell, miraculously, Zhang Yaoyang woke up.

For a moment, he looked at the slightly blackened wooden beams and couldn't tell where he was.

His mother Liu Huifang always coaxed him gently, fearing that his soul would be scared away again.

"Don't be afraid, son. Mom is here. She is always here. Mom is with you... Mom will sing a song for you!"

"Zhang the Ironsmith, Li the Ironsmith, make a pair of scissors for my sister. My sister asked me to rest, but I won't..."

Liu Huifang kept humming this nursery rhyme, trying to let the cheerful song drive away the bad things.

Finally, Zhang Yaoyang was attracted by the singing and looked at his mother under the light.

Her temples were already covered with white frost due to years of hard work.

The wrinkles at the corners of the eyes are like the plowed fields, one ridge after another, engraved with the hardships of life.

He didn't say anything, but just quietly hugged his mother's waist, buried his head in her arms, and listened to the nursery rhyme that he had already sung thousands of times.

But I never get tired of it.

With the whole family by his side, no matter how long the night was, it no longer seemed unbearable.

Chen Ergou’s wedding today reminded him of so many things that he almost couldn’t come back.

Fortunately, he had someone who cared about him, so he came back.

No one knew how many thrilling experiences they had that night. It was only at dawn that people told others about the thieves.

Zhang Yaoyang didn't expect that there were people who were so bold as to do such a shameless thing.

It seems that he has been a good guy for too long and everyone has forgotten that Zhang Yaoyang's iron fist is not to be trifled with.

In places like this, sometimes, reasoning is useless, and one still has to rely on iron-fisted measures to suppress the scoundrels.

Thanks to the upgrade of the Mountain Ganren system to level 4, now when he scans people, he can not only get some basic information, but also gain in-depth knowledge of some secrets that only the person himself would know.

So he went to the village committee and used a loudspeaker to gather all the villagers to the village committee compound for a very short meeting.

It mainly talked about the future plans for Zhaojia Village and the future factories, and the need for certification before taking up the job, so that they would study hard and learn skills while attending the literacy classes.

The assessment standards have not been announced yet, but they will definitely not exceed what they have learned.

I hope everyone can try their best to master a skill.

People who are capable can even learn more than one thing.

Only in this way can we have stronger core competitiveness in the future.

Although I said so much on the surface, in fact it was just to check the details secretly.

One or two thousand people were sitting closely together in the square, most of them sitting cross-legged. The more particular ones put a broken mat underneath, while the sloppier ones just sat on bricks to prevent their butts from getting burned by the high temperature of the ground.

It didn't take Zhang Yaoyang too long, mainly because his scanning was very fast. Even though there were so many people, it took less than a minute to finish the scan.

After all, this is his own piece of land, so naturally he has to know everything about it.

In the past, he had never thought about dealing with the people of Zhaojia Village in such a troublesome way.

However, since I was hit in the reverse spot last night, there is naturally nothing to worry about.

Finally, he fixed his gaze on the man in the corner who looked a little depressed.

The other person looked like he hadn't slept well. Although he was sitting there, he was actually dozing off quietly.

"Tiedan, Zhao Tiedan, please stand up and express your good opinions on what I just mentioned?"

After scanning the crowd, everyone's eyes finally settled on the person who was dozing off.

Seeing that he didn't react, the people around him couldn't help but poke him a few times.

"Hey, wake up, didn't you hear me calling you?"

Several people took turns teasing him, but couldn't wake him up, so they started talking at once.

"He's sleeping soundly. I can't wake him up no matter what I do. Tsk tsk tsk tsk..."

"This guy, I don't see him working so hard normally, why is he so sleepy? Did he steal last night?"

This was an unintentional remark.

Then, Zhang Yaoyang's voice was heard.

"Last night, our Zhaojia Village was robbed. I don't know which families were robbed by the thieves. Please report it truthfully. Although our village no longer has a village head, it does not mean that there is no one in charge."

"Although I, Zhang Yaoyang, don't have any special abilities, I can't stand seeing thieves being so arrogant right under my nose."

"If you have any clues to provide, you can report them to me anonymously. Once verified, I will personally reward you thirty yuan to eliminate this evil for the people!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the villagers below naturally looked around curiously, as if they were looking at everyone as if they were a thief.

Some people are usually quite dishonest, and at this moment, in order to prove their innocence, they are so anxious that sweat is pouring down their foreheads.

"It wasn't me. I was working at my father-in-law's house last night, and my father-in-law's family testified. The neighbors next door saw it, and they can prove that what I said was true."

"I also have witnesses. I went to a neighboring village to play cards with people for money. I played all night and came back without knowing what happened in the village."

"Ah, this... cough cough... I felt a little uncomfortable last night, so I went to Mr. Wang to buy some medicine. After I boiled it and took it, I have been drowsy ever since. I am still in poor spirits now. I can't still have the energy to steal!"

……

Those present kept pleading their innocence, fearing that if they were not careful, the blame would be put on their heads.

But, these people do not include the person who has been sleeping in the corner.

It’s not this person, and it’s not that person either. Who is the real murderer?

The people around finally turned their attention to the sleeping person.

Now, no one can bear to watch him sleep so peacefully. He has to wait until the matter is settled before he can go to sleep again.

They were so anxious that they almost died. If they didn't catch the thief, no one could guarantee that they would not be the next victim.

So, an uncle quickly took a bucket of hot water from the pipe and poured it directly on the man's head.

The weather is still very hot now. Although it is only around 9 o'clock in the morning, the water in the pipe is already around 30 degrees. When the temperature reaches its highest point in the afternoon, it will reach 50-60 degrees. It will be scalding hot when it comes out.

The sleeping person was woken up by the splashing water. After wiping the water droplets off his face, he started to yell angrily.

"What are you doing? Are you here to bully others? Do you think I, Zhao Tiedan, am a vegetarian?"

He had a loud voice, a red face and a thick neck, and he looked like he wanted to fight.

The person next to him asked angrily, "There's a thief in our village. Tell me if it was you who did it?"

"I think you look a lot like me. Our two families live very close to each other, and things in my yard are often lost."

"Oh, I remember now. I once saw you sneaking into someone else's field. You stole vegetables and corn."

"Hiss... I saw someone stealing Shuanzi's pants a few days ago. I thought it was my eyes playing tricks on me at the time, but now I think it was you who did it."

"Ahhh... the more you talk, the more it sounds like you did it. Tell me, were you the thief last night?"
