The poor girl from the 1970s was forced to kiss by the damp educated youth.

Shi Xin mentioned the identities of Guo Yijun and his son Guo Zufeng, and also mentioned that they had invited Xi Lang to be their guest.

Xi Lang refused, "I'm not going. I've already settled things with them."

Shi Xin: "..."

He wanted to curse, but he didn't dare.

Seeing that the matter had been discussed to a sufficient extent, Xi Lang got up to leave.

Shi Xin stopped him, "What's the rush? Come have a couple of drinks with your brother."

"No, I promised my wife I'd go home early."

You have a wife!

Shi Xin was extremely surprised; this guy actually had a wife!

"She just got married a couple of days ago." Xi Lang's expression softened when he mentioned Chen Zhi.

"You just got married two days ago and didn't invite me?" Shi Xin felt as if he had been stabbed in the chest. "I treated you like a brother, and you didn't even invite me to your wedding!"

Seeing his hurt expression, Xi Lang was too embarrassed to say that their relationship hadn't reached that point.

Seeing his expressionless face, Shi Xin felt even more hurt. She could only comfort herself, "I forgive you for not inviting me to your wedding. But you can't not invite me when your wife gives birth and the baby turns one month old."

"Not so fast." Chen Zhi is still young, and he doesn't think about those things yet.

"Then consider this my advance notice. Although I couldn't attend the wedding banquet, I can't leave without a gift. What would your wife like?"

"I'll buy her the things she likes myself."

"What you buy is yours, what I buy is mine, it's not the same. I'll give you two big red quilts, I've seen that people give these as wedding gifts."

Upon hearing this, Xi Lang did not refuse.

"Two quilts aren't enough, I'll also send you a five-drawer chest. Do you have a chest at home?"

"not yet."

"That's perfect, I'll give you this."

"Find me two young hens, the kind that can lay eggs," Xi Lang said.

"Are two enough? I'll go get you four." Shi Xin said, and then had someone prepare them.

"Four is already over the limit."

"It's alright, if someone comes to check, just kill them and eat them."

When Chen Zhi was collecting the clothes and blankets, she belatedly realized that Xi Lang had washed them.

Her face flushed instantly, and Xi Lang helped her wash her clothes!

Chen Zhi felt like she was about to catch a fire. She patted her face to calm down. After all, it's normal for husband and wife to do each other's laundry.

Chen Zhi folded the clothes and bed sheets, only to find there was nowhere to put them; there wasn't even a box in the house.

Where does Xilang usually keep his clothes?

She searched the house but couldn't find it.

Chen Zhi tidied up the things in the room, and finally found a clean bamboo basket and put the clean clothes and sheets into it.

Just as she was about to lie down to sleep, she heard a noise outside the door.

Is Xi Lang back?

Chen Zhi opened the door and called out, "Xi Lang?"

no respond.

Just as Chen Zhi was about to close the door, a dark figure pounced on her with lightning speed.

What is it this time?

Chen Zhi didn't know where she got the courage from. Perhaps she was worried that the door to her house would be damaged. Instead of closing the door or hiding inside, she raised her fist and went to meet the attacker.

Boom!

It felt like hitting a rock; Chen Zhi's fist went numb.

The dark figure was forced back a few steps by Chen Zhi's attack.

Chen Zhi closed the door and went to the open space outside.

Under the moonlight, Chen Zhi could see the face of the dark figure clearly; it was a wolf, a very large giant wolf.

Weren't most of the wolves killed off and hiding in the mountains?

Chen Zhi frowned, and then saw the wolf charge at her again.

What a great speed!

Chen Zhi only got a general idea of ​​what was happening, but that didn't stop her from throwing a punch. She used all her strength in this punch, throwing it from the side and making the giant wolf's head bend over, then it fell to the ground with a thud.

As soon as the giant wolf landed, Chen Zhi grabbed a carrying pole from the side and smashed it down.

bang bang bang....

Each sound was louder than the last.

Until the giant wolf stopped moving completely.

The carrying pole is also ruined.

Chen Zhi leaned against the stove, her breathing erratic.

She paused for a moment, about to wash her hands, when suddenly her heart skipped a beat. Before she could figure out what was happening, her body slumped to the side.

The sound of something cutting through the air whistled past her ears. Chen Zhi rolled twice on the ground. Just as she got up, the thing chased after her again.

It's a black bear!

It was another black bear, almost twice the size of the one she shot with her slingshot last time.

Giant wolves, big black bears—what's going on tonight? Why are all these big guys at her house?

As Chen Zhi dodged and fled, she swiftly grabbed a kitchen knife as she passed the stove.

The black bear straightened up, and Chen Zhi realized that she hadn't even reached the bear's front legs yet.

So high!

Chen Zhi was terrified.

She continued to flee, occasionally swinging her knife at the opponent's claws or head as they approached, missing eight out of ten times, and the few times she missed, her hand went numb from the impact.

The knife has chipped.

Chen Zhi was torn between feeling sorry for the knife and worrying about her own life.

boom!

Chen Zhi was struck in the back by the opponent's palm, and her whole body flew forward.

With his internal organs displaced, Chen Zhi wondered if his bones were broken.

She fell to the ground, struggled to get up, but failed.

The big black bear was already in front of her, and it raised its foot to stomp down on her.

Chen Zhi endured the pain and sat up, grabbed the other's leg and forcefully lifted it up, causing the black bear to flip over and crash to the ground with a loud thud.

Dust flew everywhere.

Chen Zhi squinted and swung his knife at the black bear's eye, but missed and struck the bear's ear instead. The black bear roared and swatted Chen Zhi away again.

Chen Zhi rolled around on the ground a few more times.

This time, ignoring the pain, she took a few steps forward as the black bear got up, leaped onto its back, grabbed its neck with one hand, and with the knife in the other, began hacking at its head again and again.

"There's a loud commotion next door, what happened?" Zhao Jinbao asked.

Yang Wenyu glanced at him and said, "If you're curious, go see for yourself."

Zhao Jinbao shrank back, "I wouldn't dare."

This time the commotion is even bigger than the last one, and the scene is definitely more terrifying.

"I think I just heard the sound of a wild beast," Li Zhou'an said, puzzled.

"It might not be a wild animal; it could be something else," Zhou Zhengping said with a mysterious expression. "Some unclean things can also make that kind of sound."

"That's enough!" Zhu Yuan couldn't take it anymore. "You guys aren't afraid, but we girls are."

"I'm curious, isn't Chen Zhi afraid?" Zhao Yiqing wondered. "I haven't seen Chen Zhi for several days."

"I saw her this afternoon. She and Xi Lang were digging in the dirt," Yang Wenyu said. "The land in front of their house has already been filled in. Are they planning to use it to grow vegetables?"

"Once that piece of land is filled in, it will become their private plot. Getting married has its advantages; each family gets two plots of private land, while our entire educated youth settlement only has two plots." Zhao Yiqing's tone was filled with envy.

"Then you can find someone to marry," Zhao Jinbao blurted out.

Zhao Yiqing glanced at Li Zhou'an, only to find that Li Zhou'an wasn't even looking at her. Her heart sank. With one competitor, Chen Zhi, gone, Li Zhou'an couldn't even see her anymore.

"So what is Chen Xiuzhen doing at our educated youth settlement today?" Zhao Yiqing changed the subject.

"We're here to deliver fruit to Zhou'an. She also said she's going to work at the town's supply and marketing cooperative, so if we need to buy anything, we can ask her to buy it for us," Yang Wenyu said.

To his surprise, Li Zhou'an accepted the fruit.

This was the first time Li Zhou'an had ever accepted a gift from a girl.

Does this mean that Lai Chau-on is going to accept Chan Sau-chun?

Chen Zhi couldn't remember how many times she had slashed the bear until it collapsed with a thud, and she collapsed afterward.

Dust filled the air as Chen Zhi coughed as he emerged from it.

died?

Chen Zhi wasn't quite sure.

She leaned against the water vat, looking around as if afraid something might emerge from the darkness again.

About ten minutes later, the surroundings were still quiet.

Chen Zhi breathed a sigh of relief. She should be safe now, right?

She didn't rush to deal with the giant wolf and black bear carcasses. Instead, she scooped water from the water tank to wash her hair. After washing her hair, she didn't even take off her clothes and just scooped water to pour over herself.

Xi Lang returned at this time.

"Why are you taking a shower at this time?" he asked.

Before Chen Zhi could answer, his expression changed. "The smell of blood?"

Chen Zhi pointed to the things on the ground, "Theirs."

Of course, she herself has it too.

Xi Lang looked at the wolf and bear on the ground, both of which were in a semi-intelligent state and had actually come out of the deep mountains.

It seems the temptation this time is even greater than before.

Chen Zhi washed herself clean and went back to her room to change her clothes.

After she changed her clothes, Xi Lang pushed the door open and came in. "Let me apply the medicine for you first."

Chen Zhi sat obediently on the bed, stretching out her two arms, which were the most severely injured parts of her body.

"I feel like they came specifically to find me," Chen Zhi said.

Xi Lang paused, holding the cotton swab, and sighed. "You're very perceptive. They definitely came looking for you. It's related to what I gave you the day before yesterday. You haven't been able to conceal your aura these past two days, and the aura is leaking out. It's a great tonic for them, so they came here by the scent. But don't worry, once you've fully absorbed the wood spirit, that aura won't leak out anymore."

Chen Zhi was completely confused.

"Don't be afraid." Xi Lang patted Chen Zhi's head. "I'll stay with you for the next few days."

Chen Zhi: "What if something even more powerful comes along?"

"Leave it to me." Xi Lang's tone was calm and collected, carrying a certain reassuring power.

Chen Zhi seemed genuinely unafraid, and said with a touch of pride, "I feel like I'm getting more and more capable."

"Yes, she's very capable and brave." A little girl faced a giant wolf and a black bear all by herself and managed to defeat them without alerting the rest of the village.

There was no crying, no running away; this courage is truly moving.

At the same time, he couldn't help but feel scared. He thought there were no more of these things nearby, but he didn't expect them to come from even farther away.

Thankfully she's alright, otherwise—

A murderous glint flashed in Xi Lang's eyes.

"What should we do with the carcasses of the giant wolf and the black bear?" Chen Zhi found this to be a headache.

"Would you like to try some wolf and bear meat?" Xi Lang asked in return.

Chen Zhi naturally thought about it, "But the weather is so hot, this meat won't last long. If we don't deal with it tonight, it will go bad tomorrow."

"Leave it to me." His inner workings were almost completely still; this meat could be kept for years without any problem.

Chen Zhi asked curiously, "What's your idea?"
