021. Crossing the Border, Two Worlds
Lin Hao shook his head like a rattle-drum in denial.
"I don't know anything. Don't ask me.”
After saying that, Lin Hao glared at Uncle Ha Ri.
Uncle Ha Ri and the others were confused. They didn't know what they did wrong.
On the other side, Bai Mengyao, who couldn't get an answer from Lin Hao, turned her gaze to Uncle Ha Ri and the others.
"Your village is so close. What's with this pit?”
"Do you know who dug it up? Or did you guys dig it up? What is this for?"
"It's not right to randomly dig holes on the mountain. It's serious damage to the environment!”
Hearing Bai Mengyao's question, Uncle Hari and the others realized their mistake.
They could only blame themselves for being too anxious to help the poor. After moving the boundary stele, they excitedly went straight to find Lin Hao and did not think of burying the pit at all!
Although Uncle Ha Ri and the others were simple and honest, they knew that they couldn't tell the truth.
However, they could not think of a good reason at the moment.
The huge pit was on the hill in front of the village. No one would believe them if they said they didn't know what happened.
After thinking for a long time, the village's wise man, Uncle Ha Ri, finally thought of a scapegoat and said firmly.
"It was dug by a rat. This wasn't dug by a human, it was dug by a big rat.”
The other villagers who couldn't think of an idea echoed, not noticing how ridiculous this reason was.
"That's right! It was dug by rats."
"There are a lot of rats around our village, and they are very big. They must have dug it up.”
"It's all those rats 'fault for digging holes and destroying the environment.”
...
Mengyao Bai burst into laughter. She walked around the pit and observed.
"There are so many stones in the pit that is several meters wide. You said that this was dug by rats?”
"Or are the rats here as big as pigs?”
"Your words make me feel like you're insulting my intelligence.”
At this moment, the netizens in the live broadcast room were also amused.
"I'm dying of laughter. You look like a pig and a mouse. 666!”
"Such a large rock, ordinary animals can't even dig it up. There are also traces of tools digging on it, so it must have been dug by humans.”
"As a criminal investigation expert who has read the complete works of Detective Conan, I can tell from the expressions of those villagers that they dug this pit.”
"I'm just curious why these villagers came to the mountain to dig a hole. I think the soil is quite fresh."
"I guess there must be treasures buried inside. These villagers dug the hole to dig for treasures.”
"I'm a tomb raider. According to my years of experience reading tomb raiding novels, it's really possible. It might be a thousand-year-old tomb. If these people dig it up, it'll be full of treasures.”
"I'm from the Cultural Relics Bureau. I've prepared a silk banner and 500 yuan in cash for them. I hope they'll be sensible and donate the things they dug up to me.”
......
Hearing Uncle Ha Ri and the others 'answers, Lin Hao wanted to cry but had no tears.
He should have known that these people were unreliable, but he did not expect them to be so unreliable.
It was fine if you didn't bury the pit, but when others asked you, at least make up a lie that was easy to believe.
It was more convincing to say that it was to bury a power grid pole or install a power generation device than to dig it up by a mouse.
Or rather, it was better to say that the pit was dug to bury the dead!
Although it was a little unlucky, it was very realistic.
......
If Uncle Hari and the others knew what Lin Hao was thinking, they would definitely feel even more wronged.
Their village didn't even have electricity, so they had never come into contact with such things. How could they have thought of it in a short time?
Not to mention burying a dead person.
Their custom was sky burial. There was no concept of digging a hole to bury them!
At this moment, Uncle Ha Ri and the others were so embarrassed that they didn't know what to do.
He wanted to find another reason that was easier to convince, but he couldn't think of it at the moment. He could only shrink his head and play dumb.
It was just a big pit, and Mengyao couldn't tell what was buried inside. She only mentioned it because it destroyed the environment, so she didn't ask further.
Mengyao Bai warned Uncle Ha Ri and the others.
"Uncle, in the future, you mustn't let your villagers casually dig such a pit again.”
"Even if others come to dig, you can't let them dig.”
"Even if you have a use for digging this kind of pit, you should bury it after digging it and recover.”
Seeing that Mengyao Bai wasn't going to investigate further, Uncle Hari and the others heaved a sigh of relief and nodded.
"I'm not digging anymore. I'm not digging anymore."
"We will bury this pit in a while. We definitely won't destroy the environment.”
"I'll definitely remember to bury it in the future."
......
At this moment, the men, women, and children who stayed behind in the village also noticed Lin Hao and the others on the mountain top and gathered at the entrance of the village.
Looking at the border, Lin Hao finally confirmed with Bai Mengyao.
"Are you sure which village you want to interview? It's not too late to regret now."
Bai Mengyao didn't understand the meaning behind Lin Hao's words at all. She followed Lin Hao's gaze.
This was an extremely dilapidated village.
The house was dilapidated and looked like it had a history of hundreds of years.
The women and elders gathered at the village entrance were dressed in shabby clothes, and some children did not even have shoes.
The only thing that the village could offer was probably the cows and sheep.
"Of course we have to go for an interview. What's there to regret?”
"To be honest, the poverty and backwardness here are a little beyond my imagination, but I feel that the people here are very good, very simple, and sincere.”
"If it weren't for the fact that the poverty relief work here is almost done, I would have come here to help the poor for a few years and help these simple people.”
Mengyao Bai looked sincere. She really had the intention to help the poor here.
Lin Hao was deeply moved by Bai Mengyao's words.
"A few years ago, the situation in other places was similar to this place.”
"In recent years, the country has improved and the economy has developed. It's normal to introduce poverty relief and the construction of a new rural area.”
"Without those policies, other places would probably be the same.”
The netizens who were watching the live broadcast sent out bullet comments.
"This village is too poor. The children don't even have shoes.”
"To be honest, this is the first time I've seen such a dilapidated house in my life. It looks like it has been bombed.”
"There's actually a place in the country that's so poor. It's beyond my imagination.”
"You've only eaten for a few days, and you've already forgotten the hardships of the past? In the past, even the whole family would wear the same pair of pants.”
"It seems that I've only seen such poverty in Daliang Mountain.”
"Previous poster, don't smear Daliang Mountain. Daliang Mountain has been out of poverty for the past few years.”
"We both live at the border. Dorje had enough money to buy a Mercedes-Benz G-Class. The life on both sides is like heaven and hell.”
"Now do you understand the country's poverty relief policy for the rural areas? Support is over!"
......
Lin Hao led Bai Mengyao and the others around the pit and toward the village.
Once they took this step, they would go abroad.
