In the village and neighboring villages, beautiful women often had accidents. They were either dead and their corpses were floating in the pond of Half Calamity Ravine, or they were dead. However, the Wang family's daughter and Liu Zhentian's wife were always in trouble. People attributed this to the fact that there were soldiers in these two families. In addition to the superstitions of the people at that time, they all thought that the demon king was afraid of the families of soldiers. Therefore, there was an unprecedented craze for soldiers in the village and neighboring villages. It didn't take long for Liu Zhentian to expand his army to three to four thousand people. Of course, the village had the most people. Among the villagers, the Sun family on the northeast side of the village and the Wang family on the northwest corner of the village had the most people. Just these two families had a total of 60 to 70 people. Including the other families, there were no less than 200 people in the village. With people, they could ask for money and guns from the higher-ups. With people and guns, Liu Zhentian's back became much harder. The bargaining chips with the higher-ups would increase. It could be said that Liu Zhentian was already a person who held the heavens in his hands within the jurisdiction of the county. Even the military director who was in charge of the prefecture had to give him some leeway.
There were more soldiers in the village and the neighboring villages. As expected, there were fewer cases of beautiful unmarried women and married women disappearing. It was almost extinct. However, there were still corpses of beautiful women in the Half Calamity Ravine. However, no one knew who they were, and no one knew where they came from. Thus, after a period of time, they would be picked up and buried on both sides of the river on the west side of Half Calamity Ravine. Although things were developing as usual, no more embarrassing incidents happened in the village or the neighboring villages. Therefore, no one cared too much about where the female corpse that was floating in the air came from and why she died. After all, it had nothing to do with him.
The village returned to its former tranquility, and the market, which had not been affected much, became bustling again. Moreover, under Liu Zhentian's suggestion, the village had set up a public school. The Wang family funded the construction of a school. Liu Zhentian personally invited three young people who graduated from the prefecture's normal school to attend classes in the village's school. The school was located in a temple between the Du and Guo families, which was south of the street. Because this temple was public property. She didn't belong to any family. It was also located in the middle of the village, making it convenient for people to pick up their children. It turned out that he had wanted to choose Shuang Miao. Firstly, the troops lived here. Secondly, he was afraid that the ominous aura of Banjie Ravine would affect the children. After all, there were many times when there was water in Banjie Ravine. Therefore, they chose the middle of the village. They had recruited 120 to 130 students. According to the level of the students, they were divided into three sections. The first small, the middle small, the high small. Among the more than 100 people in these three school-age groups, three were the most outstanding. One was the old pedant we mentioned earlier. One was the second son of the Wang Clan, Wang Wenxiang, and the other was the son of the Liu Clan, Liu Desheng. The three of them were the same age, but Wang Wenxiang had the highest seniority, so the Keeper called him Uncle. Liu Desheng called him grandpa. Although the Wang family was a wealthy family, they could be considered a scholarly family in the countryside at that time. Therefore, when Wang Wenxiang went to school, under the strict requirements of his father, Wang Shijie, and the influence of his sister, he had already mastered a lot of knowledge, so he was divided into primary and secondary schools. The Keeper and Liu Desheng, on the other hand, were in the elementary school. The Keeper was ugly and weak, so people often bullied him. Every time this happened, Wang Wenxiang would step forward and help him settle the others. It was because of Wang Wenxiang. It was unknown whether it was because his family was rich or for some other reason. She was always taller than children of the same age, and she was also a little fatter. As the saying goes, one's strength is not lost. Therefore, no matter if it was a senior or a junior, they rarely provoked Wang Wenxiang. However, Wang Wenxiang's nature was the one who could not bear to see others bully others. Therefore, he had to fight for the Keeper. Wang Wenxiang's nanny was the Keeper's mother. In addition, Wang Shijie, the head of the Wang family, was a kind person. This was why Wang Wenxiang had always treated the Keeper like his own family. But there was a price to pay for Wang Wenxiang's help. Every time he finished helping the Keeper, the Keeper had to call him uncle. As time passed, the Keeper would call Wang Wenxiang uncle whenever he saw him, regardless of whether he was helping him or not. And Wang Wenxiang always agreed very straightforwardly.
Just like that, after another three years, Wang Wenxiang was recommended to the county public school to attend middle school. The Keeper and Liu Desheng only went to the county public school the following year. The situation of the three of them studying in the county public school was not much different from that in the village. Because of their special relationship, it could be said that Wang Wenxiang, Liu Desheng, and the Keeper had grown up together. Therefore, unless they weren't together, as long as they were together, they had to be together no matter what. However, the three children were mostly introverted and studious. Therefore, other than the Keeper's unlikable appearance, the three of them had no problems with their studies. They were all highly valued by the teachers.
It was when the three of them had just started school in the village's public school that the war in the Central Plains began. Although the flames of war did not spread to this place, it was still affected. A large number of refugees from other places flooded here. For a time, the area under Liu Zhentian's jurisdiction was overcrowded. In response to this situation, Liu Zhentian, on the one hand, ordered the collection of taxes to be increased, and on the other hand, he asked the landlords and rich families in the villages to open porridge stalls. At the same time, those who had to be soldiers would go to the various villages every day to distribute the refugees to prevent unnecessary riots from being caused by too many refugees in a village. On the other hand, Liu Zhentian started to recruit soldiers from the refugees. For a time, many young and middle-aged refugees saw that there were no ambushes and that they could eat their fill. They went to the barracks and requested to be soldiers. Liu Zhentian's team instantly expanded from six to seven thousand people to less than twenty thousand people. Although it was still a brigade, its strength was equivalent to a division.
The army had expanded, and the number of soldiers had increased. At the same time, the number of beautiful women's corpses floating in Half-Calamity Ravine had also increased. However, due to the large number of refugees, no one cared about their own lives, so no one investigated the identity of the floating corpses. However, these corpses all had a common characteristic, which was beauty and youth.
The number of soldiers had increased, and their strength had increased. Liu Zhentian's back had also hardened. Some things began to be done blatantly. First, he brought his concubine back to the village for a tour. Then, he opened up an office area that he thought was very secretive. This office area was heavily guarded. No one was allowed to enter. If there was anything that happened to happen in Liu Zhentian's office, he had to make a call. Then, he would come out and go to the office in the military camp. No one knew what Liu Zhentian was doing in this office area. They only knew that every night, or at any other time, whenever he wanted to come to this office area, there would be a carriage from his special forces that carried a big wooden box. This wooden box was big enough to fit a person. However, this cart that was pulling the big wooden box came out very early every day. It was almost always at night, a little after midnight, and it was often unnoticeable. As it was the special vehicle of the commander, no one checked it, and no one dared to check it. As for the local police, they could only follow Liu Zhentian's orders. Otherwise, he would be asking for trouble.
On this day, when the sky was just beginning to brighten, Liu Zhentian's special vehicle pulled in something from outside the city. It was still the big wooden box. Coincidentally, they bumped into Wang Wenhai's reconnaissance team. Wang Wenhai asked the reconnaissance team to stop the car. He called the captain of the Special Forces to the side. He told the captain,"I want to bring something to Officer Liu. Don't let your brothers know. Tell them to step aside first." I'll give you the item. Hide it well and let them come over.”"That's easy. Who doesn't know your relationship with Officer Liu?”The captain replied as he said,"Brothers, run thirty meters forward.”"Captain, where's the car?" asked a soldier.”"I told you to run, so run.”After all, they were soldiers of the special forces, and they were the special forces of the commander. Their running movements were indeed more orderly than those of the troops seen in the village. Wang Wenhai took out a bag and said,"This was intercepted by another war zone. It just so happened that my division headquarters was having a meeting. He also robbed them. You told the brigade commander to be careful, and the division commander also said that there will be no next time.”"Smoke soil, this, this, this…”"Don't stutter. Do you remember what I said?”"Yes, Sir Wang."
The Special Forces drove the car away. Wang Wenhai's team member immediately came over to report,""Sir, we opened the box and saw that there was indeed a person inside. It was a woman, a very beautiful woman.”Wang Wenhai nodded and said,"This matter must not be made public. It must be kept strictly confidential."”"Yes, sir."
Wang Wenhai walked along the streets of the county town. He suddenly looked up and saw a signboard on the door." Maoyuan Wooden Shop." He walked in and asked,""Uncle Defa, is my father here?" "Aiyo! Young Master is here, Old Master is here! Here! Do you want me to inform him?" "No need. I'm not an outsider. I'll go in myself. Uncle Defa, go ahead." "Alright, Eldest Young Master. You're welcome, you're welcome.”Wang Wenhai went straight to Wang Shijie's bedroom and office. When Wang Shijie saw Wang Wenhai, his face tensed up and he asked,""Why are you here? Is there anything?" "Nothing. I was just bored and wanted to come over and talk to you for a while.”"If you have anything to say, say it!" "Dad, this world is too chaotic. Soldiers eat the food of the common people, but they do things that harm the common people.”"What's wrong? Did you see something or hear something?”"Dad, do you still know the daughter of the Sun family and the daughter-in-law of the Wang family who were lost in our village a few years ago?”"I know! Why? Do you know where they are? Then why didn't you ask your soldiers to save her?”"Yes, but I can't save him!”"Quickly tell me what happened." "Yesterday, I went to the division headquarters for a meeting. After the meeting, I had to report something to the division commander. But the teacher was in the inner residence. I didn't think much of it and went to the Inner Residence. Guess who the new concubine of the teacher is. It was the daughter of the Sun family, Sun Lianxiang. When Sun Lianxiang saw me, she pretended not to know me and avoided me. Moreover, it seemed that Sun Lianxiang was not free with her master. After reporting the information, I left. On the way back, I kept thinking that it must have been Liu Zhentian. I suspected that the missing woman had something to do with Liu Zhentian. Ever since the women went missing in the village and the neighboring villages, I found out that Liu Zhentian's special forces had an exclusive carriage. It was from then on that the car started to move. Liu Zhentian had done such a thing in Henan. If they were good-looking, they would sell them to the brothels when they were tired of playing with them. This morning, in order to confirm this matter, I deceived the members of the Special Forces and let my people check the box. There was indeed a beautiful woman who was fascinated by the fragrance.”"Doesn't your master care?" "Teacher is the same as him. Today, I reported to him that we intercepted a batch of smuggled tobacco from other war zones. After investigation, it was Liu Zhentian's people who resold it. They had handed over the people, the dirty goods, and the goods. I handled the handover. I went to the Inner Residence today for this matter. In the end, the division commander told me to tell Liu Zhentian to be careful when doing such things in the future.”"Don't work for such a unit, lest you get yourself blackened.”"I have the same idea, but I still have a mission to complete. Wait until my mission is completed. I'll quit this army and not work for them anymore.”"Yes, I know my son. You should take care of yourself.”Wang Wenhai came out of his father's Maoyuan Wood Shop. It was almost noon, so she went to the county's public high school because Wang Wenhai was dating a female teacher.
