150: There is a cellar.

Hearing this, Hu Ping and Yang Fang could hardly believe their ears.

"What? You said Xiao Niannian and the others went to the restroom?"

"Now that Battalion Commander Han and the others are rushing to the restroom, could something have happened to them?"

"How about we go take a look?"

Yang Fang suggested, and Hu Ping immediately nodded.

She had long been looking forward to Xiao Niannian's misfortune, and now that she heard such good news, she definitely had to go see.

"Let's not go. If Battalion Commander Han and Political Instructor Jiang find out, they will definitely punish us."

Their class had been cleaning pigsties for a month and hadn't recovered yet.

But with so many people rushing over, something might be happening.

"What are you afraid of? We're just going to the restroom."

Zhu Dan said.

Hu Ping was very pleased with Zhu Dan's words and said,

"That's right, we're just going to the restroom."

"Then let's go to the restroom together."

Hu Ping took Yang Fang, Zhu Dan, and two other comrades-in-arms, while the other comrades-in-arms stayed in the classroom.

"You should keep your distance from Hu Ping and the others in the future. They are troublemakers. They've caused trouble several times already, and who knows what else they'll stir up later..."

An old Soldier warned the comrades-in-arms.

"Yang Di, you're right. We really should stay away from them."

"If it weren't for them, we wouldn't have been punished to clean pigsties for a month."

"Exactly. In the Military Unit, you can't be too curious. Disobeying orders from leaders is absolutely unacceptable."

When Battalion Commander Han and Political Instructor Jiang arrived with their men, they saw Xiao Niannian standing there, with two unconscious men lying on the ground beside her.

"Comrade Xiao, what happened?"

Xiao Niannian reported the situation.

Battalion Commander Han looked at Teacher Jiang.

"Teacher Jiang, do you know where Zhao Quan's home is?"

Teacher Jiang saw Battalion Commander Han and the Soldiers behind him, and she immediately felt a sense of security.

She nodded vigorously.

"I know, comrade, I'll take you there."

Battalion Commander Han looked at Squad Leader Xu.

"Squad Leader Xu, take two Soldiers to protect Teacher Jiang."

Battalion Commander Han then looked at Xiao Niannian and said,

"Comrade Xiao, you come with us to investigate."

"Yes."

Battalion Commander Han then ordered his Soldiers to tie up the three men.

"Tie them up and interrogate them thoroughly."

"Yes."

Xiao Niannian followed Battalion Commander Han and the others towards Zhao Quan's home.

Zhao Quan's home was not far from the school, but the roads here were all dirt roads.

Xiao Niannian listened to the sounds around them.

It was early morning now, and everyone was asleep.

The moonlight was dim today, so even with so many people entering the village, they weren't discovered.

Xiao Niannian listened to the sounds around her and suddenly heard a hissing sound.

Is that a snake?

Xiao Niannian took a few steps forward, and as the snake sprang up, Xiao Niannian, with quick eyes and hands, directly pinched its vital spot.

"Ding, Speed +1."

Battalion Commander Han and Political Instructor Jiang heard the commotion and were about to act, but then they saw Xiao Niannian swiftly grab a snake as thick as a child's wrist.

Xiao Niannian looked at the snake wrapped around her arm and directly twisted its neck.

Battalion Commander Han and Political Instructor Jiang were somewhat surprised by Xiao Niannian's quick, ruthless, and precise movements.

Not only did she catch a three or four-jin snake with her bare hands, but she also directly twisted its neck. This happened within ten seconds; her reaction was too fast. No wonder the Special Forces Brigade borrowed Comrade Xiao.

If she's well-trained, with Comrade Xiao Niannian joining them, their Reconnaissance Battalion will definitely get a good ranking in the year-end competition.

Xiao Niannian held the snake, carrying it as she continued to walk forward.

This snake meat could be given to the comrades-in-arms in the Cooking Squad, adding an extra meal for them.

In her original world, they would have four to six dishes per meal, plus steamed buns and dumplings, and even more during holidays.

Here, they mostly ate potatoes and cabbage. Although there was meat, the portion was small. Such a large snake would allow everyone to have a few bites.

Teacher Jiang looked at Xiao Niannian, feeling shocked.

Is this Female Comrade really that formidable?

She believed that these military comrades would definitely be able to eradicate the scourges here.

She had volunteered to go to the countryside; her family had originally arranged a job for her.

This village would probably be uninhabitable. When it was daytime, she would call home and ask her grandfather and parents to make arrangements for her.

After walking for more than ten minutes, comrade Jiang pointed to the flat house ahead and said,

"It's here."

Battalion Commander Han waved his hand, and his subordinates immediately dispersed.

Xiao Niannian directly leaped over the wall and, in a few steps, climbed onto the roof.

Many homes now used thatched roofs, but Zhao Quan's home used tiles. And there was a walkway of several tens of centimeters on the side.

Xiao Niannian walked lightly forward.

Almost no one in the village had their lights on; only Zhao Quan's home had two lights.

Xiao Niannian heard several people talking.

"Zhao Quan and the others have been out for so long, why haven't they returned yet?"

"Zhao Quan is usually a smart person; he should be able to handle that woman."

"Why is there still no movement from Zhao Liu and Zhao Qi?"

"They will definitely sort things out."

"I heard that inspections outside have been strict recently. Otherwise, let's change places and come back in a few days."

Xiao Niannian heard four people talking inside, but she also heard children crying, though the sound was faint.

It seemed to be underground.

Zhao Quan's home had a cellar.

Xiao Niannian quickly confirmed this.

She decided to look for the cellar's location.

Xiao Niannian jumped down from the roof, rolled a few times to absorb the impact, and made no sound.

Xiao Niannian looked around the courtyard carefully and noticed a chicken coop for chickens and ducks outside, and a pile of straw not far away.

Could it be that there's an entrance in that pile of straw?

Xiao Niannian listened to the sounds around her and walked towards the pile of straw.

Xiao Niannian quickly pushed aside the straw and saw a square stone slab. She lifted it with effort.

This heavy stone slab, weighing over a hundred jin, was directly lifted by her.

"Ding, Strength +1."

Xiao Niannian saw that there was indeed a hole more than one person wide here, and she crawled inside.

"Don't move."

"Ah."

"Oh no, someone's here."

Xiao Niannian heard the sounds of the Soldiers fighting with the four men.

She continued to walk inside.

After walking more than ten meters, Xiao Niannian saw a light.

"Wuwuwu, I miss Daddy and Mommy."

"Wah, I want to go home."

"Bad guys, they are all bad guys."

"Wah..."

Many children were crying loudly.

Xiao Niannian listened carefully but didn't hear any adult voices.

Xiao Niannian saw an iron fence with a large lock beside it.

She took out a wire and began to pick the lock.
