Chapter 101 Centipede

The land on the back mountain side is surrounded by rings, a bit like terraced fields. However, because it is far away from the water source, the soil here is dry and relatively barren. The brigade usually grows sweet potatoes and other drought-tolerant coarse grains in this kind of land, and harvests it again and again every season. It can be planted.

I don’t know if it’s a soil problem or something else, but there are a lot of centipedes in the sweet potato field. Almost every time a sweet potato vine is pulled out, a centipede will be pulled out.

 At first, several female educated youths were frightened, but they gradually got over it.

However, Lin Qing was a little unlucky. The sweet potato vine she just pulled out directly reached the centipede nest, and three large centipedes came out at once. Before she could hide, her ankle was bitten by the centipede.

Wei Lan looked at the centipede that had been dug into two pieces by a **** but was still twisting on the ground. She felt a chill. She moved closer to Lin Qing and tried to lift her trousers, "Are you okay?"

The wound was slightly invisible, but it swelled up at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Lin Qing was sitting on the ground. He originally wanted to say that it was okay and the wound didn't hurt much, but when he saw his ankle, which was as swollen as a steamed bun, his face turned pale.

“The soil in the sweet potato field is loose, and centipedes like to come and make nests there.” A woman in the field next door saw it and explained loudly: “Centipedes are not poisonous. They just hurt for two days and are fine!”

"Thank you, sister-in-law!" Wei Lan smiled gratefully at the sister-in-law, then turned to Lin Qing and said, "It's almost done anyway. You go back first and wash yourself with soap. If you don't have it, use mine."

Lin Qing shook his head, "It's fine as long as it's not poisonous, and it doesn't hurt too much. I'll clean it up with you and then go back together."

 After saying that, Lin Qing got up and continued working.

Wei Lan didn't say anything, so she stretched out her hand to hold her so that she couldn't get up.

Lin Qing saw her firm and persistent look and couldn't help laughing, "Can't I just go back?"

Wei Lan then smiled and said, "Okay, okay."

“I’ll go back and take care of the wound. If Yang Yan and the others are at the educated youth center, I’ll ask them to come over and help you.”

"good."

After Lin Qing left, Wei Lan continued to work. Considering the loss Lin Qing suffered just now, she started to work more carefully, but as she became more careful, her speed slowed down. The sister-in-law next door was very quick with her hands and feet. After peeling the sweet potatoes, she picked them up and put them in a basket on her back, and then went back to the brigade one after another with the basket on her back.

These are all carried to the brigade, and the quantity is recorded and put into the granary. From now on, it will become one of the commune members' rations in winter.

There are fewer and fewer people in the field, and Wei Lan feels a little anxious.

There are not many big trees on the back mountain side, and when the sky darkens, it looks deserted and a bit eerie.

She is not afraid of ghosts, but she is most afraid of this eerie feeling.

Wei Lan squatted down, stretched out his hand to pull out the sweet potatoes buried in the soil, and threw them into the basket. He was anxious to collect them quickly, and stood up to pick up the sweet potatoes from the next pit. Then he stood up and suddenly tilted his body.

 She was knocked to the ground by the sweet potato vines, and the half-frame of sweet potatoes she had just picked up was also knocked over.

Wei Lan's palms were burning, and she grimaced in pain. Suddenly, a familiar voice came to her ears, "Are you okay?"

Immediately afterwards, a pair of big rough hands wrapped her hand and looked up and down.

The man lowered his head and was very focused. Although she couldn't see his eyebrows, she could feel the other man's genuine concern.

Even though it was dusk, the temperature was still very high. Wei Lan had a thin layer of sweat on his forehead. Looking at this man who hadn't appeared for several days, he felt inexplicably stuffed in his heart.

Looking at Gu Chao clumsily checking her wounds, Wei Lan's eyes turned into crescent moons, "Are you here? Are you very busy recently? I didn't even see you..."

Gu Chao was startled and suddenly let go of her hand. He stood up and took two steps back to distance himself from Wei Lan.
