Reborn as a capitalist's young master in the 1970s, he starts his life by being blocked at the

On the riverbank, some villagers and educated youth were working in the fields.

"You brat! What are you yelling about! The water's so shallow, it's not going to drown you!" a villager scolded.

"A ghost! There's a ghost at the bottom of the river!"

A seven or eight-year-old child ran ashore and said in a trembling voice.

The other children also ran ashore, their bodies trembling.

Upon hearing this, the villagers hurriedly dropped what they were doing and ran to the riverbank.

"Go tell Uncle Mancang quickly, Han Lang has been found!" a young educated youth shouted.

The discovery of Han Lang's body in the river caused a huge uproar in the village.

In particular, Han Lang had only been missing for a few days, and his body had already dried up. Some people were secretly gossiping that he had attracted some unclean spirits.

Some people say that he offended someone and was killed and drowned in the river.

These words naturally reached Zhou Ya's ears!

"So Han Lang didn't flee to avoid punishment." Zhou Ya frowned.

As a sent-down youth, she had received some education and naturally wouldn't believe the villagers' rumors.

So it seems someone saved her!

Han Lang's death was probably also related to that person.

"Do you think it could be related to Heiyu Mountain?"

"It's hard to say. Who has ever seen a corpse turn into a dried-up corpse in just a few days? Maybe the monsters of Black Valley Mountain sucked out its life essence."

"I heard even the police came, but they still couldn't figure it out!"

"Speaking of Heiyu Mountain, wasn't there another educated youth who was sent to guard the mountain? His name was Chen Jianming. I guess he won't live much longer."

At the village's intelligence station, several middle-aged women were chatting amongst themselves.

Zhou Ya passed by and stopped to listen for a while.

"Aunt Liu, did the security team say who killed Han Lang?" Zhou Ya asked, pulling aside an older woman.

She desperately wanted to know who had saved her.

As for Chen Jianming, she completely ignored the past and didn't even consider it.

"I don't know!"

Aunt Liu shook her head like a rattle-drum.

Black Valley Mountain, a small wooden cabin.

Chen Jianming was unaware of what had happened down the mountain.

In the past few days, he has not only planted wild fruit trees in his space.

Using the hunting knowledge they had acquired, they set up several traps in the forest where wild animals roamed and caught a wild rabbit.

Now, he has set up a pile of dry firewood and is using a lighter to start a fire, preparing to roast a wild rabbit.

The lighter fell from a spatial rift.

In the past three days, besides the lighter, a large bag of steamed buns and an entrenching tool also fell into the crack.

Thanks to Chen Jianming's care, the little hen has started laying eggs now.

Chen Jianming is now living a very fulfilling life.

"This is what a human life should be like!"

Chen Jianming was in a great mood; he felt that his physical fitness had improved a lot in the past few days.

Before long, the wild rabbit on the firewood pile was roasting and sizzling with oil, emitting an enticing aroma.

Chen Jianming couldn't wait to tear off a rabbit leg and take a big bite.

"It would be even better with a little salt!"

The rabbit was very plump, but not greasy at all, and had a very chewy texture. The only downside was that it wasn't salted, so it tasted a bit bland.

However, compared to the days before, being able to eat rabbit meat now is like heaven and earth!

What more could you ask for?

Chen Jianming devoured the whole rabbit, leaving it completely clean.

He found that as his physical condition improved, his appetite also increased significantly.

After eating his fill, Chen Jianming began carrying an entrenching tool to dig up trees, preparing to build a basement in the wooden house.

He always felt that the cabin was unsafe, and if there was any danger, he could hide in the basement.

Besides, it can also be used to store wood and other things; you can't just pile all sorts of odds and ends into the space.

After doing all that, he reinforced the wooden house with several more layers.

Looking at it now, the wooden house has been reinforced with five or six layers, making it airtight and difficult for even a fly to get in.

"It looks pretty good."

Chen Jianming nodded in satisfaction.

On the other side, there's Huai Shu Village.

"Captain, Captain!"

Liu Neng jogged all the way to Wang Mancang's house, and before he even entered, he bumped into someone.

"Why are you running? What's all the fuss about!"

Wang Mancang scolded, staggering from the impact and almost falling.

Liu Neng, panting heavily, said, "Captain, we've received word from above that a denunciation meeting will be held tomorrow."

"Just go ahead and drive it. It's not like we've never driven one before. What's the rush?"

Wang Mancang straightened his clothes, which had been disheveled by Liu Neng.

"no!"

Liu Neng swallowed hard and said, "The higher-ups have specified that a denunciation meeting will be held tomorrow, and they want that brat Chen Jianming to attend!"

Wang Mancang was surprised; this was indeed somewhat strange.

"Which one?" Wang Mancang asked, frowning.

"The provincial capital! People from the provincial capital have arrived! It seems they have some connection with Chen Jianming. They say they absolutely must let that kid participate. Right now, that kid is the mountain guard at Heiyu Mountain, and we don't even know if he's alive or dead! What should we do?" Liu Neng wiped the sweat from his fat face, looking flustered.

He had jogged all the way here, and given his physique, it must have taken a lot of effort.

"I'd completely forgotten about that."

Wang Mancang hesitated for a moment, then said, "Let's see him then. I'll go to Heiyu Mountain to find that kid tomorrow. I hope he's not dead."

The next morning.

Chen Mancang woke up from his sweet dream with a sense of satisfaction.

He's been sleeping in the space these past few days, mainly because he's worried about wild animals.

However, the wooden house is almost fully reinforced now, so I won't have to sleep in the space all the time anymore.

"What the hell is this?!"

Upon seeing what appeared around him, Chen Jianming nearly jumped up as if his tail had been stepped on.

That was a bundle of time bombs!

Are things that come out of spatial rifts really that strange?

How can such a thing exist?!

Before this, Chen Jianming thought that only tools and food would appear in the crack.

"Never mind, we're deep in the mountains and forests, maybe we'll actually have a chance to use it in the future."

Chen Jianming put the bomb aside, left the space, and prepared to wash his face and have some food.

"Creak—"

The door was suddenly pushed open.

"who!"

Chen Jianming grabbed the hunting rifle beside him, cocked it, and aimed it at the approaching person.

"Don't shoot, it's me!"

Wang Mancang was startled to be confronted with a gun as soon as he entered the room.

"Captain Wang!" Chen Jianming then put away his gun and gave a nonchalant reply.

Anyway, I'm no longer in the village, so there's no point in being polite to this old man.

"Are you that afraid of death? You've practically fortified this cabin into a fortress! I didn't expect you to be doing so well here."

Wang Mancang looked around the room; it was almost spotless.

When he first arrived at the cabin, he was dumbfounded and thought he had gone to the wrong place.

Chen Jianming reinforced the entire wooden house with three layers of reinforcement, both inside and out!

"Isn't it because you're afraid of wild animals? Captain Wang, why are you so free?" Chen Mancang replied casually.

"The village is holding a denunciation meeting tomorrow, and I've come to invite you back to attend," Wang Mancang said directly, though his attitude wasn't particularly forceful.

He heard that the people from the provincial capital had some connection with Chen Jianming, so he really didn't dare to offend them easily.

"Attend a denunciation meeting? I'm a mountain guardian now, do I still have to attend?" Chen Jianming asked in confusion.

I never thought that even hiding in the mountains would cause me trouble.

"This is an arrangement from above, it seems... it's your relative, right?"
