Chapter 702 I became famous for catching ghosts in a variety show 23

Upon hearing this, Mu Jiawei nodded quickly, as if he was eager to prove to his father that what he said was true.

Except for Zhao Xuan and Yu Zhengqiu, no one else thought much about it and thought the village chief was telling the truth.

Although they were very disappointed, everyone felt that there was nothing they could do about it. No wonder the village chief could not hide the disappointment on his face.

Zhao Xuan changed his previous leisurely and casual attitude, and said, "Okay, then can the assistant director give me the car keys? I need to drive out, call the police, and then send the person to the hospital for emergency treatment."

These words were spoken to the assistant director, not to seek the village chief's consent.

When the assistant director thought of the talisman that Zhao Xuan gave him last night and those strange things, he thought it would be okay to let Zhao Xuan drive out.

It's better than a group of them waiting to die in this deep mountain.

"The key is not with me. It's in the room. I'll get it right away." The assistant director was very happy thinking that Zhao Xuan would drive the car and he could leave with him.

"Call the police?" The village chief suddenly lost his expression, and looked at Zhao Xuan with cold eyes.

The change in attitude was so great that even the nervous staff nearby noticed that something was wrong.

People will gradually get used to the cold faces of people with bad tempers, but if they see a simple and honest person suddenly turn cold, even the most calm person will feel a little surprised.

Zhao Xuan seemed not to notice the change in the village chief's expression. He smiled as if nothing had happened. "What's wrong? Isn't it our duty as ordinary citizens to call the police if there is something wrong?"

Zhao Xuan said the four words "ordinary people" casually, but they also seemed to be the key points.

Mu Jiawei looked at Zhao Xuan with complicated eyes for a moment, then looked at the village chief, waiting for his opinion.

"Oh, it's okay." The village chief smiled again, but his eyes flickered as he said, "I forgot to tell you that there was a landslide at the entrance of the mountain road leading out of here last night. The way out is blocked. If you want to get out, you have to clear the road!"

Everyone was stunned, "?"

They entered the village via a mountain road yesterday, but since the car was able to drive into the village, it meant that there was no problem before last night.

It's a landslide...

Everyone couldn't help but think of the ghost wall they had been walking in last night. They felt a chill on their backs and suspected that the landslide was caused by an evil ghost, whose purpose was to prevent them from leaving.

"Is that the only way out of your village?" Zhao Xuan raised his eyebrows slightly. What a coincidence.

landslide...

It's really "too timely"!

"If you want to drive, there is only that one way." The village chief nodded.

Zhao Xuan smiled helplessly, "Then there's nothing we can do. How long will it take to clean up the landslide?"

The village chief explained honestly with a simple and apologetic look on his face.

"Today is the beginning of farming. Normally, our village would be busy with this period first. We can deal with the landslide at any time. Farming depends on God's blessing. Finally, the weather is good, and every household wants to prepare the farmland first."

Zhao Xuan was silent when he heard this. It seemed that everything the village chief said was fine, but after listening carefully, he was trying to stop them from leaving...

His prediction turned out to be correct. The death of the female ghost might be related to the entire Mujia Village, and everyone in Mujia Village knew that the female ghost's soul had been lingering in the village for a long time and had not left.

Yu Zhengqiu suddenly interrupted, "I see there are quite a few young people in the village, how can they be too busy?"

"..." The village chief's smile faded for a moment, then he continued to smile as if nothing had happened, explaining that every household had a lot of farmland, and after plowing the fields, there were other steps that could not be done in a day or two.

While the village chief was speaking, Yu Zhengqiu's slightly cold and calm eyes were fixed on him.

"You don't know, we are located deep in the mountains, very remote, farming can't make much money all year round, and the nearest school is in town, it takes two days to walk there."

The village chief sighed while carrying a hoe, with a helpless and bitter smile on his face, "Most of the young people in the village have not been to school and can't read or write, so even if they go out to work, no one will want them. They can only follow us useless people to farm in the village!"

By the time he finished speaking, most people had been deeply moved by the village chief's "heartfelt" words, and felt that the young people born in Mujia Village were truly pitiful and regrettable.

At the same age, some people go to prestigious universities and have a bright future, while for others, even going to school has become a luxury and their feet have been trapped by the mountains for generations.

A group of people who had never thought about how lucky they were before, suddenly discovered that some people were born stuck in the quagmire, and their starting point was many times better than that of the young people in Mujia Village!

Among them, Zhao Xuan and Yu Zhengqiu stood out particularly, mainly because they were so calm among all the people who were touched!

He was so calm that he seemed not to have listened to the village chief's words at all, or maybe he did listen but didn't care at all, with a heart of stone.

Wang Chenhan's thoughts were naive and straightforward. "Since you have already suffered from being uneducated and illiterate, why don't you apply to the higher authorities? The country will definitely find a way to solve the problem!"

He felt that if the country knew about this, it would not sit idly by.

Even if a school is not built directly in Mujia Village, there will be other solutions that will not require them to walk for two days to go to town to go to school.

The village chief was silent, and then he smiled and said, "The grass in the vegetable field is too deep. I will go and weed it first. You can eat slowly."

The village chief is gone, but Mu Jiawei is still here. Others want to continue lobbying Mu Jiawei to explain the situation to the mayor. If... the higher-ups think it's too much trouble and don't want to intervene...

Wang Chenhan patted his chest and said, "Although I am not a wealthy man, I have some savings. It should be no problem for me to build a school for your village."

Mu Jiawei's eyes flickered, and it was obvious that he was moved. But after a while, he seemed to remember something and his expression changed slightly.

He quickly refused, "No, even if there is a school at the foot of the mountain, there won't be any teachers willing to come."

Zhao Xuan noticed this detail, tapped the water cup with his fingers, said nothing, and felt more and more that the secret of the village... was very close.

While others were still trying to persuade Mu Jiawei, Zhao Xuan walked out first and stood in the corridor at the gate with his arms folded across his chest. From afar, he saw the village chief hoeing the vegetable garden opposite.

The image of a diligent farmer seems simple and unpretentious...

The footsteps gradually approached. Zhao Xuan's ears moved slightly. He recognized the identity of the person just by the sound of the footsteps without looking back.

"The village chief must know the inside story and may have been involved. Whether the young people in the village don't want to go out, or... can't go out, only they themselves know!" Yu Zhengqiu looked at the vegetable field opposite, his voice cold and unhurried.
