They talked as they walked along the way, and the steamed bun didn't know much about it, but what he said was completely true and credible, and it completely echoed the conjecture in Chen Zhi and Ye Qiu's hearts, but this conjecture had to wait for face-to-face verification before it could be fully confirmed.

It was about 11 o'clock in the afternoon when they set out from the village, and after walking into the mountain for a while, it was already more than 5 o'clock in the evening, and it was dark early in the mountain, and the surroundings were slowly darkening.

At this time, they found the remote ravine, and not far ahead, they saw a traditional farmhouse yard, which seemed to have a lot of chickens and dogs, and they could hear the sound of chickens and dogs barking incessantly.

"That's it", Qiang Mantou gritted his teeth as he said this, he was carrying two boxes of dim sum in his hand, but his footsteps stopped, obviously a little stunned.

Just like what his grandfather just said, the people in their village have not been in contact with the He family on the mountain for many years, and now they are bold enough to visit, and the heart of the steamed bun is a little drumming.

"Let's go, don't be afraid, we're here!" , Ye Qiu encouraged him.

In this way, Chen Zhi, Ye Qiu, and Ghost Dao took a few guys to walk towards the farmhouse in front of them along with the steamed buns.

As soon as they walked to a distance of about twenty meters from the courtyard gate, Chen Zhi found that the ground here was very special, the land here was very flat, every convex and concave was planned, obviously artificially repaired, it looked unremarkable, but in fact there were defensive lines everywhere around.

Chen Zhi has seen this kind of formation in the information, which is a military defense method during World War II, using some transparent metal wires to circle the surrounding area, and mines will be planted in special places, and there will be alarm bells and control switches in the house.

Any behavior that causes the metal wire to vibrate, the alarm bell inside will ring, that is, anyone who steps into the range of this line of defense, the people inside will immediately know that if there is an intruder, the people in the house can manipulate the mines outside to explode at any time, just like the most primitive monitor, which is the best fortification method in a mountain village without electricity.

Sure enough, before they reached the gate, they saw a woman in her forties already appearing at the door to greet them.

Chen Zhi looked at this woman from afar, this woman is middle-aged, there are obvious wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, but she has white and tender skin that is rare in the mountains, this woman is not tall, her body shape is even, she can see that she was very beautiful when she was young, and her face still shows a natural kindness and simplicity.

"Aunt He, do you remember me? I am the eldest grandson of the old Meng family under the mountain! Your family once saved my ......", after seeing this woman, Qiang Mantou hurriedly walked over, he was very polite, and called his aunt with his mouth closed,

He Zhonghua's wife seemed to have an impression of him, and nodded to him with a friendly smile, but looked at Chen Zhiye Qiu and the others behind him vigilantly.

After the steamed bun finished calling people, he immediately pointed to Chen Zhi and Ye Qiu behind him and introduced to the woman,

"These big brothers are all from the city, and it is a good ......thing to say that they are looking for you to have important things to say", after the steamed bun finished speaking, he looked at He Zhonghua's wife with big eyes shining.

After He Zhonghua's wife listened to the introduction of the steamed buns, she looked at the people behind Chen Zhi and Ye Qiu, the ghost knife was naturally full of anger, several guys of the Bao family were usually black, with a face full of meat, and they definitely didn't look like a good person, He Zhonghua's wife hesitated, obviously had some scruples, and did not signal that everyone could go in.

At this time, Ye Qiu walked over with a smile,

"Auntie, don't be afraid, we were sent by the government department, let's know a little bit about the situation, do you think this will work? I'll let the others wait outside the courtyard, and the two of us will follow up, just chatting, and definitely not bothering you, okay? After Ye Qiu finished speaking, he pointed at himself and Chen Zhi.

He Zhonghua's wife looked at the two of them carefully, and seemed to think that Ye Qiu and Chen Zhi were relatively good-looking, so she nodded and motioned for them to go in.

In this way, the other guys waited outside, Chen Zhi, Ye Qiu and Qiang Steamed Bun, followed the woman into the courtyard together, and when they entered the door, Chen Zhi noticed a small detail, He Zhonghua's wife lifted up a broken shovel at the gate of the courtyard and leaned against the courtyard wall......

After He Zhonghua's wife let them into the yard, she didn't mean to let them into the house.

Chen Zhi saw that the door of their house was locked tightly, and all the wooden windows and doors were made of joinery, and the wooden craftsmanship was tightly sealed. The whole village house looks ordinary, but in fact, every stone brick is very tightly built, which shows that the person who built this house is proficient in architecture and is also very good at civil and physical engineering.

"You are the leaders of the government! Is there anything you want me to do? ”，

He Zhonghua's wife was really as honest as she looked, and she was a little timid when she spoke, he first took a few large coarse porcelain bowls and poured water for Chen Zhi and others, and then carried a kettle to the guys outside the yard.

"It's nothing, you don't have to be busy aunt", Ye Qiu took the hot water handed by the woman and said with a smile, "What about your children?" ”

"Oh! They went to work on the ground, and there are still a few acres of fields behind our yard ......", He Zhonghua's wife sat down after speaking, she was obviously a little nervous, and her hands kept rubbing the corners of her clothes, "You came all the way to find me, what is the matter?" ”

"Oh! It's not a big deal, just come and visit He Zhonghua's family", Ye Qiu replied with a smile.

But when this woman heard He Zhonghua's three words, she immediately trembled, and then he looked at Chen Zhi and Ye Qiu vigilantly, and his eyes immediately turned red, "I ......, my man has died a long time ago, more than twenty years ago, what else is there to say?" ”

"Yes, yes~~~, there is nothing to say", Ye Qiu said with relief, "But Comrade He Zhonghua is an important scientific and technological talent of the country after all, as his family, we have to care about how your life is going...... and we want to ask, do you have any difficulties in your personal life?" Have you lived all these years on your own? ”

"I'll live by myself!" , He Zhonghua's wife's face immediately rose with a frightened expression,

"Over the years, I have been pulling my children to live alone, I have never looked for a man, you don't have to listen to those people under the mountain talk nonsense, there are absolutely no outsiders in our family!"

The woman's emotions were obviously very excited at this time, her hands kept swinging, and the corners of her eyes went to the outside of the slanted courtyard gate, as if she was expecting someone to come back.

"We don't mean anything else, you don't have to be nervous, aunt ......", Ye Qiu saw the woman's appearance like this, and hurriedly comforted her, and at this time, he heard hurried footsteps outside the courtyard gate, and then two young men with iron pickaxes stepped in,

Both lads were in their twenties, very athletic, with tanned skin on their faces and mud all over their bodies, but their eyes were very clear and not at all timid.

One of the young men, who was a little older, said to Chen Zhi and Ye Qiu,

"Who are you? Tell me anything! My mother is timid, don't scare her! ”
