, the fastest update of the goddess’s wealthy son-in-law (also known as: the goddess’s super son-in-law, protagonist: Zhao Xu)!
At night, it rained harder and harder.
Seeing that the sky seemed to be leaking, Su Rou kept falling down. Said to Zhao Xu: "Zhao Xu, it seems we can't enter the mountain tomorrow?"
Zhao Xu said: "Let's wait until tomorrow to see if the rain can stop!"
After eating, Zhao Xu and Su Rou chatted with the woman for a while.
Only then did I know that the woman’s name was “Zhou Mei!”
Zhao Xu and Su Rou called the woman "Aunt Mei".
Zhou Mei said that her husband went to work outside three years ago and only came home once a year. Her father-in-law and mother-in-law have passed away, leaving only her and her children to depend on each other.
However, the people in the entire village are not much better than her.
Every household consists of young and old, orphans and widows.
In the village, except for the "scientific expedition team", there are few outsiders.
When the "scientific expedition team" was mentioned, Zhao Xuda asked Zhou Mei with great interest: "Aunt Mei, what project will the scientific expedition team come to inspect?"
"Ape-man!"
Zhou Mei explained: "There is a professor who discovered an ape man here that dates back more than two million years ago. Therefore, scientific expedition teams always come to them."
Su Judao: "I remember that Li Bai once wrote a poem. The white emperor is among the colorful clouds, and the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains are returned in one day. The apes on both sides of the bank can't stop crying, and the light boat has passed the Ten Thousand Mountains. It is possible that there are really ape-men here."
Zhou Mei sighed: "I don't know if there are ape-men, but there must be savages."
"Savage?"
Zhao Xu and Su Rou were shocked.
Zhou Mei said "Yeah!", nodded, and said, "I once went to Dawu Mountain with the villagers to collect medicine. Those savages suddenly rushed out and dragged some villagers away. When they were found, they were already All that’s left is the bones, and they were probably eaten alive.”
"Isn't it Shennong Barbarian Jia, where are the barbarians?"
"It's available here too!" Zhou Mei said.
Zhao Xu frowned and asked Zhou Mei, "Aunt Mei, when did this happen?"
"Three years ago! We used to go into Dawu Mountain to collect herbs and make a living. But then, savages appeared here, and the villagers did not dare to go into the mountains to collect herbs. Some young people went to work outside. Hey! This kind of life is actually like being a widow, it’s really uncomfortable.”
Zhao Xu and Su Rou both sympathize with Zhou Mei, but everyone's life is different. They can't help change either.
After chatting, Zhao Xu and Su Rou returned to their houses early.
The house is not big, and the bunk can only accommodate up to three people sleeping together.
What made Zhao Xu extremely depressed was that Zhou Mei only brought one quilt for the two of them.
Su Rou complained to Zhao Xu: "I asked you and Aunt Mei to explain, but you just didn't listen. Now it's fine, we only have the same quilt. How can we sleep?"
"You cover me with the quilt, and I'll cover you with my clothes!"
"How about that? What if you catch the cold?"
Zhao Xu smiled and explained to Su Rou: "I am a martial arts practitioner. It is common to eat, sleep and sleep in the open. How can I be so pretentious!"
"But this is so embarrassing!"
"Ouch! Officer Su, when did you become such a mother-in-law?"
"Okay! You're welcome then. However, I need to change my clothes, so you should turn around first." Su Rou said.
Zhao Xu said "Huh!", came to the door, took out a cigarette from his pocket, and squatted there smoking.
After Su Rou changed her clothes, she said to Zhao Xu: "I've changed, you can turn around!"
"Wait a minute, I've finished my cigarette."
After taking a few more puffs, Zhao Xu flicked the cigarette butt into the yard.
When she came back, she saw that Su Rou had gotten into bed.
After Zhao Xu took off his coat, he also got on the kang and lay on the kang fully clothed.
For a moment, the room suddenly became quiet. They could only hear each other's breathing for a long time.
"you!......"
"you!......"
Zhao Xu and Su Rou said "you!" at the same time.
"Speak first!" Su Rou said to Zhao Xu.
Zhao Xu said "Yeah!" and said to Su Ju: "Officer Su, do you remember what the witch said to us when we went to see her?"
"Remember! She said that our trip to Wushan Mountain would escape death!"
"Are you afraid?" Zhao Xu asked.
Su Rou replied: "As long as you are here, what are you afraid of! A narrow escape from death means that there is still a chance of survival. It's not like there will be no life after death!"
"You are quite optimistic! By the way, the witch also said that we can't leave tomorrow. In addition, we are not the only ones on this trip, and she also said that one of us is not a human being."
"That's right!" Su Rou said: "Although the rain is not particularly heavy, it doesn't mean to stop. Maybe we won't be able to leave tomorrow. So besides the two of us, who will be traveling with us? "
Zhao Xu said: "It may be someone from that scientific expedition team."
"How many are there?" Su Rou asked.
Zhao Xu replied: "Nine!"
Su Rou thought for a while and said: "If we can't leave tomorrow, the worst we can do is get up early and leave on the third day. I don't believe that we can still go with them."
"Well! That's all we can do."
Zhao Xu turned around and looked at Su Rou and said, "What puzzles me is that the witch said that one of the people we were traveling with was not a human being. What does that mean?"
"Is it a ghost?" When Su Rou finished speaking, a thunder exploded in the air again.
Su Rou was so frightened that she shrank under the quilt, stuck her head out again, and said to Zhao Xu: "It's so late at night, it's better not to talk about this topic."
"Officer Su, aren't you usually very courageous? Why are you so timid all of a sudden?"
"She's a girl too!"
Su Rou smiled, looked at Zhao Xu and asked, "If your wife knew that we lived on the same kang, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to wash yourself off even if you jumped into the Yellow River."
"The pure is pure! Qingqing will understand me."
"What? Do you suspect that I am not charming enough?"
Zhao Xu hurriedly explained: "That's not what I meant! I mean, I'm not that kind of person."
"It sounds like I'm that kind of person! If it weren't for your help me many times, I wouldn't have suffered this crime and went into the mountains with you. When you go back, think about how to make up for it Me!"
The two of them chatted and chatted, but Su Rou was so sleepy that she fell asleep due to the chat.
Zhao Xu also fell asleep quickly!
But in his sleep, he still maintained a high degree of vigilance.
This is no longer a hotel, but a strange place.
Especially the "witch"'s "narrow escape" sentence made Zhao Xu feel lingering fear. They don't know the future, what unknown dangers are waiting for them.
On the second day, it was still raining outside.
Zhao Xu looked at the weather and saw that the sky was gray and did not look like it would clear up. It seems like I really have to continue living here today.
After Su Rou changed her clothes and got up, she stood next to Zhao Xu. She said to Zhao Xu, "The words of the witch have begun to come true!"
