Facing the enthusiastic village chief, Xu Damao calmly accepted, chatting with him while eating breakfast. Before long, a bell rang in the village, which was the school bell.
In winter, villagers do not need to work, making it the most leisurely season of the year.
It was not Xu Damao's first time in Li Family Village, and he was already familiar with the village chief, so he did not need the village chief's excessive company.
He would have to stay in Li Family Village for two more days and show two more movies before going to the next village!
An idle Xu Damao headed towards the mountain forest.
The Spirit world was already full of life, all thanks to the many seeds Huo Yuhao had left behind!
Xu Damao was truly grateful to Huo Yuhao, who made things much more convenient for him. He was truly a great person!
Therefore, there was no lack of plants in the Spirit world; flowers, grasses, and trees were all present, and even the seeds of medicinal herbs were exceptionally complete. The only thing missing was animals!
The large mountain next to Li Family Village was Xu Damao's best choice.
...
In Si Jiu City, He Yushui arrived at the Textile Factory early. After requesting leave from the workshop director, she immediately rushed to the police station where her boyfriend worked.
Upon seeing He Yushui, the young police officer frowned and led her to an empty corner.
"Yushui, the situation I understand is similar to what you know. It's now confirmed that the victim has divorced. For your brother to be fine, we must get a letter of understanding from the aggrieved party!" the young police officer said indifferently.
He Yushui sobbed, "Is there no other way?"
Having lived at 95 Nanluoguxiang for so long, how could she not understand Xu Damao?
Marrying the daughter of a big capitalist once made Xu Damao boast for a long time. Now, because of Sha Zhu, Xu Damao was divorced. How could Xu Damao easily let Sha Zhu off?
The young police officer shook his head and said, "From what I understand, someone has already pulled strings regarding your brother's matter, and it has been temporarily suppressed. Otherwise, just based on the immoral things he did, taking him to the firing squad wouldn't be excessive!"
The young police officer did not consider He Yushui's feelings and spoke very directly, even with some indignation!
Hearing the young police officer's words, He Yushui stopped crying and stared blankly at him. After a long time, she finally spoke, "That's my brother, how can you say that?"
Upon hearing this, the young police officer's expression was calm, but a subtle hint of joy flashed in his eyes.
"What I said is the truth. Your brother's actions this time were truly immoral!"
Seeing her boyfriend still speak like that, He Yushui suddenly felt an abnormal sadness in her heart. The hint of joy that flashed in the young police officer's eyes did not escape He Yushui, and it also made He Yushui realize that her relationship with the young police officer had come to an end.
Although He Yushui was still somewhat unwilling to believe it, she still asked, "Is there something you want to tell me?"
The young police officer's eyes narrowed, and after a long period of contemplation, he said seriously, "Yushui, I don't think we are suitable..."
"Alright, you don't need to say anymore!" He Yushui interrupted the young police officer before he could finish.
With that, He Yushui left without looking back, ignoring the young police officer's gaze.
A year of companionship ended in such a way. Although He Yushui had guessed the outcome, when the truth arrived, it was still somewhat unacceptable for her.
A dejected He Yushui walked towards the Steel Rolling Plant, sobbing as she went. After an unknown period of walking, a distraught He Yushui's legs gave way, and she squatted on the ground, burying her face in her hands and crying loudly.
Despair and powerlessness filled He Yushui's heart!
As she cried, He Yushui felt her head grow dizzy, and her eyes gradually blurred. Before long, He Yushui's slender body collapsed onto the ground.
"Comrade... Comrade... Are you alright...?"
"Girl..."
The inquiries of passersby still echoed in He Yushui's ears, but soon she completely lost consciousness!!!
...
In the afternoon, the sky was clear and sunny. Xu Damao, who had been busy all morning, returned to the village chief's house.
At this time, Xu Damao had explored more than half of the mountain forest, and the spirit power in his body was almost depleted.
For his own safety, Xu Damao tried to keep his spirit power above 20%!
Through Xu Damao's diligent work, the Spirit world was vibrant with life. Pheasants, wild ducks, rabbits, field mice, spores, wild boars, wild sheep, deer, and more were all present. Xu Damao also harvested countless small fish, shrimp, and other river fresh through the mountain streams!
He also did not forget to collect several boxes of pure natural honeycomb!
The only regret was that Xu Damao did not find aggressive carnivorous animals like tigers and bears, which made Xu Damao realize that he would have to go to the Northeast for such animals!
However, judging by the current number of animals in the Spirit world, Xu Damao would certainly not lack meat in the future!
With the help of his mental force and the Spirit world, Xu Damao was like a cheat in the mountain forest. Wherever his mental force reached, he could send those animals into the Spirit world! (Note: This is not a hunting novel, it's just a brief mention!)
Xu Damao tried his best to establish an ecological balance within the Spirit world, as he would not spend too much time managing it.
Given the reproduction rate of rabbits and the Spirit world's enhancement, it wouldn't take many years for this Spirit world land to be occupied by rabbits.
Therefore, the law of the jungle was imperative!
...
In Si Jiu City, at Peking Union Medical College Hospital, in a clean, white ward, a frail woman lay on the hospital bed. Her face was pale, her expression distorted, and cold sweat continuously beaded on her forehead.
Immediately after, the woman kept shouting, "No, don't..."
The woman shook her head as she shouted!
"Hoo... Hoo... Hoo..."
After an unknown period, the woman suddenly opened her eyes, sat up, and took deep breaths continuously!!!
Having regained some calm, the woman looked around in astonishment. Sensing the unfamiliar environment, the woman murmured to herself, "Didn't I die? Where is this...?"
Just as the woman was confused, a vast memory instantly flooded into her mind.
The woman suddenly clutched her head, shaking her body incessantly, painfully accepting this immense memory.
After a while, the woman took a deep breath. Looking at the old-fashioned hospital room, the woman's face was filled with disbelief.
Through the memories in her mind, she couldn't believe that after a rebirth, her Spirit had transmigrated into the pitiful character in the Qin Courtyard drama.
Her mother died shortly after giving birth to her. In the early days of the founding of the nation, her unreliable father, He Daqing, ran off with a widow, leaving He Yushui and her brother Sha Zhu to depend on each other. That year, Sha Zhu was just sixteen, and she was only an eight-year-old child by traditional Chinese reckoning!
The Qin Courtyard was full of schemes. In the two years after He Daqing left, Sha Zhu and He Yushui lived by scavenging for trash, enduring a life of uncertain meals.
