Chapter 2: Screaming in a cornfield

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Cheng Peng, who had worked all day, was finally liberated.

Zhang Hu put away the tools and said to him: "Today's salary will be settled next time, you can carry the battery for me first." ”

Cheng Peng looked at the 48V battery next to him, and said in his heart: "This product is not stupid, the battery weighs forty or fifty pounds, and the tool is only twenty or thirty pounds.

Stopping Zhang Hu, who was about to go out, Cheng Peng stretched out his hand in front of him and showed his hand: "Master, you can't open a meal without wages, and you can't carry a battery if you don't have food!"

This is not Cheng Peng's trick with the master, the main reason is that the master's character is too poor, and he is often in arrears and deducts wages.

In fact, today's project has almost been carried out here, and it is estimated that Zhang Hu will not call him to help tomorrow. What's the joke about the next settlement? Who knows when the next time will be?

"You kid is getting more and more cunning!" Zhang Hu stared at him angrily, as if he had been greatly wronged. But he had too many tools in his hands, and after a day's work, his stomach was grumbling with hunger, and he was diabetic, so he couldn't work too hard. There was no way, so he had to take out thirty yuan and throw it to Cheng Peng.

"Bring the battery!" he said angrily, and he went downstairs with a bang.

Cheng Peng smiled, put away the thirty yuan, bent down and grabbed the battery handle, and used his strength to prepare to pick up the battery.

Burst!

The strength was too much, Cheng Peng's fart was not clamped, and a thin smoke slipped out, and the whole room suddenly stinked.

He doesn't mind if it's his own ass in the end. In fact, he was being frightened by his strength.

The moment he grabbed the battery, Cheng Peng felt that his hand was light, and the person was almost dodged to the ground. It seems that what he is carrying in his hand is not a lead lump, but a bag of cotton of the same volume, light and fluttering, and has no weight at all.

If this is the case, Cheng Peng will not be surprised. The point is that he has been thin and weak since he was a child, and his strength is relatively small. To put it bluntly, just two years ago, he was as thin as a bean sprout, and he couldn't walk far with a hoe.

Since following Zhang Hu, Cheng Peng has suffered a lot of crimes, which are all hard work, especially helping the master carry the battery, which almost kills him every time.

But today, this battery has actually become as light as cotton! Cheng Peng couldn't believe his feelings, he looked down, it was dirty and black, it was indeed the battery. I grabbed the battery again, it's so light!

"Cheng Peng, you hurry up and die!" Zhang Hu called him below.

Cheng Peng agreed, hurriedly carried the battery, ran out of the door, closed the door with his hand, and put the owner's key in the equipment box next to him.

When he went downstairs, he was still not at ease, put the battery on the ground, watched Zhang Hu pick it up and load it on the car with great difficulty, and asked, "Master, this battery is quite heavy!"

"Nonsense, twenty-six kilograms, can it not sink?" Zhang Hu glared at him, and said angrily, he was still distressed about his thirty yuan.

Cheng Peng agreed with a smile, but he was even more surprised in his heart, how could his strength increase so much for no reason?

The two were in the same village, and Cheng Peng originally took Zhang Hu's car back, but today Zhang Hu said: "You go and take a ride home by yourself, I will spend the night in the town tonight." ”

"Huh, you're not going home?" Cheng Peng was surprised.

Zhang Hu grinned meaningfully: "Yes~"

Cheng Peng touched the back of his head, nodded and said, "That's okay, I'll go first!"

He left the community and came to the black car next to the platform. From the town to the village, there are forty or fifty miles of mountain roads. There is no shuttle bus at this point, and you can only take the six-yuan black bread.

While waiting for the bus, Cheng Peng saw Zhang Hu riding a tram across the road, and across the road, a young woman dressed like a flower magpie waved at him. Zhang Hu stopped the car in front of her, and the young woman twisted her ass and sat up, hugged his waist, and the two drove away affectionately.

"I said why don't I go home, it turned out that I was looking for a mistress. Cheng Peng said secretly.

Finally got in the car and returned to the intersection of the village, it was already dark.

Counting the money in his pocket, in addition to the day's food, drink, and travel expenses, there is only twenty yuan left, this day is tired, but it is really not worth it, Cheng Peng thought to himself, he has to find another way to live, is it possible to be bullied by Zhang Hu for the rest of his life?

Hachinohe Village is a very small village nestled in the mountains, and it is said that only eight families settled here in the past, but today, there are several hundred families.

However, despite the growth of the population, the economic conditions have been poor. The main reason is that the transportation is too underdeveloped, and they can't get in and out, and the only way out for young people is to go to the city to work. got married, gave birth to children, and threw them to the elderly, repeating the same fate for generations.

Cheng Peng walked on the rugged dirt road, pondering the mirror he had picked up during the day. Along the way, he felt the itch in the palm of his left hand, and he couldn't help but scratch it. When I scratch it, I think it's strange, the touch is not like meat, but like a smooth mirror. But when he looked down, it was clearly his palm.

Just walk all the way and scratch all the way, from the entrance of the village to the village, you have to pass through a cornfield. In April, the cornfields are already very luxuriant, like a sea of forests, occupying the fields on both sides. Even if you are a big man, you will be afraid when you pass by here in the evening.

This is a mountainous area, and wild boars can occasionally be seen, Cheng Peng picked up a wooden stick and sang while walking.

"Lala~ I'm a free-walking flower ......"

He was singing vigorously at the top of his voice when he suddenly heard a frightened cry and a wild boar humming in the cornfield at the foot of the nearby hill.

"Scared! wild boar!" Cheng Peng's hair stood up all over his body.

The nearby villagers all know the horror of the wild boar, if they encounter it, the best thing is to pray that it is full and not hungry, and the mood is still very good, otherwise it will be targeted by it and basically do not run.

Cheng Peng immediately dragged the stick and rushed forward a few steps, ran a few meters and stopped, because he thought of the scream just now. There were also people, and it was a woman's voice.

Cheng Peng burst out in a cold sweat, should he run or go back to help?

The wild boar's frantic roar and running, the movement of the corn stalks falling in patches in the cornfield, and the heart-rending sound of the woman, all hit his ears and down his ear canal.

Gritting his teeth and being ruthless, Cheng Peng stomped his foot and turned back, and pounced towards the sound with a stick. He kept an eye on it, and as he ran, he listened carefully to the direction in which the sound was traveling, and finally made a detour. Sure enough, when he opened the corn stalk in front of him, Cheng Peng saw the butt of a big black pig.

The big black pig had his back to him, and was screaming at a pretty woman in a gray sweater in jeans, her hooves scraping into the ground, and a hole had been dug up, and there was a splash of fresh dirt next to it. And what about the woman, who was already so frightened that her face turned pale and she collapsed to the ground. A bamboo basket was overturned beside her, and all around her were freshly caught pigweed.

"Scared, isn't this Zhang Hu's daughter-in-law?" Cheng Peng said secretly.
