Let me see which unlucky person is here to tell fortunes today

Chapter 305: Disappearance of Dong Yunlu

Qian San is not a fool. He will not act impulsively until everything breaks down completely.

But the look in his eyes when he looked at Zhou Yi no longer had the contempt he had at the beginning. Compared with those tall and strong male teachers, the inconspicuous little girl in front of him seemed to be a thorn in the side of this group of people.

After simply greeting a few students and asking them to come to school, Teacher Chen, Teacher Li, Zhou Yi and others left.

The two of them didn't know that they had been in the ivory tower for too long and were unaware of the cruelty outside. They didn't even notice the tension on Zhou Yi and several other teachers' faces, and they kept complaining about the parents here, saying that their ideas were too backward.

Zhou Yi listened all the way and felt more and more annoyed. Suddenly, she stopped and said to Teacher Chen behind her.

"Teacher Chen, do you know the names of the students who didn't go to class today?"

Teacher Chen was stunned, obviously not understanding why Zhou Yi suddenly asked such a simple question. She frowned and replied, "Of course I know. I came here to teach sincerely, so I will naturally be responsible for my students!"

Zhou Yi asked again: "Have you met the parents of those students?"

Teacher Chen was suddenly speechless.

Someone nearby saw that the atmosphere between the two was a little tense, and immediately tried to smooth things over: "Teacher Chen, Teacher Li, we know you are responsible, but we are unfamiliar with this place. If we get lost, how will you let us go back and explain?"

"Yes, I remember a big brother in my office who also came to Hongwen Village to teach. A female teacher who was with him, named Dong Yunlu, got lost because of a home visit!"

Zhou Yi's eyes lit up, and she quickly asked, "Dong Yunlu?"

The teacher who mentioned Dong Yunlu nodded and said, "Do you know Xiao Zhou?"

Of course Zhou Yi knew him. This was the person the host had asked her to find backstage. But she couldn't say anything. She could only shake her head and said, "He has the same name as a relative of mine, but a different surname. I got scared when I first misheard him."

Teacher Chen was also a little scared at this time. She asked, "How did Dong Yunlu get lost?"

The man continued, "Hongwen Village is deep in the mountains, and there is often heavy fog in the morning and evening in spring and autumn. Dong Yunlu was also on a family visit at the time, and later lost her way in the fog. When the fog cleared, the teacher who was with her went to look for her, but only saw a piece of cloth that had been hooked off her clothes on a branch on a cliff."

Teacher Chen and Teacher Li covered their mouths in horror.

"Dong Yunlu fell off the cliff?"

The man shook his head: "I don't know. The cliff is a hundred meters high. No one dares to go there except those who go there to collect herbs."

"The search and rescue team went down to look for her afterwards, but they couldn't find any trace of her."

Teacher Li hugged Teacher Chen's arm in fear: "This..."

The teacher who was trying to smooth things over continued, "So don't blame Xiao Zhou for being a little fierce just now. She was just caring about you."

Teacher Chen and Teacher Li nodded, then apologized to Zhou Yi.

On the way back, Zhou Yi felt the hairs on her back stand on end.

Since the host told her to go find Dong Yunlu, Dong Yunlu had fallen off a cliff and even her body could not be found.

That means Dong Yunlu was not actually dead at all, and the so-called branches on the cliff with pieces of her clothes hanging on them were purely an illusion created by the local villagers in order to keep her here.

Zhou Yi originally thought that the villagers of Hongwen Village wanted to keep people here by destroying the innocence of women and forcing them to get pregnant. Now she knows that the way they wanted to keep people here was to erase her from this world and make everyone think she was dead!

Zhou Yi ruined Qian San's plan, and the feud between the two was complete.

But Zhou Yi was not in a hurry. They had only been there for a few days and the village chief would not let Qian San do anything wrong.

The next day, Zhou Yi continued to teach her students. Wu Yan, who had translated for them last time, was also in Zhou Yi's class.

Because he spoke the best Mandarin, Zhou Yi made him the class monitor.

However, Zhou Yi has always had a question: the Mandarin of the two local teachers is very average, so why is Wu Yan's Mandarin so good?

During the break, Zhou Yi called Wu Yan to her office.

Although the fact that the students and Qian San planned to trick Teacher Chen and Teacher Li into coming for a home visit yesterday proves that the students and villagers here are in the same group, it does not mean that they cannot get information from them.

After a while, Wu Yan appeared awkwardly at the door of the office.

Anyone who was called into the office alone would be scared. He wiped his snotty nose with his dirty sleeve and asked cautiously, "Teacher Zhou, are you looking for me?"

Zhou Yi smiled and waved at Wu Yan: "Wu Yan, thank you for translating for me these days. If it weren't for you, I really don't know how to communicate with my classmates."

"This is a reward given to you by the teacher. You must take it carefully and don't let others see it!"

Zhou Yi took out an iron box of fruit candies. This kind of candy is very common in supermarkets in the city, but it is a rare delicacy in the mountains where resources are scarce.

Looking at the colorful candies on the tin box, Wu Yan's eyes widened.

"Teacher, is this...really for me?"

Zhou Yi smiled gently: "Of course, open it quickly and have a look. This box of candy is the teacher's favorite. Try it. If you like it, I will send you all the flavors when I go back!"

The smile on Wu Yan's face became even wider. He couldn't wait to open the lid of the iron box, tear off the aluminum film on it, take out a mango-flavored one and put it in his mouth.

The sweet taste made him want to jump up.

There is actually sugar in the village, but most of the time it is malt sugar sold by porters.

But even if it was malt sugar, if these people wanted to buy it, they had to get their family's consent, and then wait for half a month until the porters came to the village next time before they could have it.

"Teacher Zhou, this candy is so sweet!"

"As long as you like it." Zhou Yi smiled and took out a pack of tissues from her pocket and wiped the dust off Wu Yan's nose.

Wu Yan, who was smiling happily just now, suddenly stopped and even forgot to eat the candy.

"What's wrong?" Zhou Yi asked.

Wu Yan lowered his head dejectedly, stuffed the candy into the side of his cheek, and responded sullenly: "It's okay, Teacher Zhou."

Children can't hide their thoughts, and Zhou Yi could tell what Wu Yan was thinking at a glance.

She had asked other classmates about Wu Yan a long time ago. Although that classmate spoke poor Mandarin, she could still guess what had happened to Wu Yan.

Wu Yan is a child from a single-parent family. His father's name is Wu Dashan, and his mother was bought from a human trafficker by Wu Dashan for 5000 yuan a few years ago.

Others didn't know the woman's name, but they knew that she had a very strong personality. She was beaten in the Wu family for half a year, but she refused to give in and almost burned down the Wu family's house.

Finally, Wu Dashan was so angry that he broke the woman's legs and tied her to the cowshed with an iron chain. Only then did she behave herself.
