Educated Youth in the Countryside: She is the Village's Embroidery Queen!-Chapter 317: I’ll Lead You Along

Wen Shi and the others were left speechless by him.

They could only comfort themselves that this kid was just clueless.

Subsequently, they unanimously ignored Xiao Kang and started discussing whether to go to the Jiang Family to find the leader or to go to the office.

Lin Qiu Ping said, "According to usual practice, at this time the leaders are still in the office, the political commissar should also be there."

Qi Zhiyuan said, "But when I came back from work, I saw the leader had also returned."

Wen Shi suggested, "Then go to the house?"

He Yunsong thought it was feasible, "Let’s go to the house first, if he’s not there, we can find the leader in the office."

That should work.

Then, a group of five guys plus Yi Chichi set off.

The leaders also lived in the family quarters, not far from the regiment-level officer area. The group of six walked for only a few minutes before reaching the Jiang Family.

They knocked on the door, and Jiang Xingxing opened it.

Seeing Yi Chichi, she was a bit surprised, but upon seeing Wen Shi and the others, she understood.

"Looking for Mr. Jiang?"

Wen Shi and the others nodded, and Jiang Xingxing smiled, "Mr. Jiang came back for dinner, checked my homework, and then went to the headquarters to work overtime."

Her family’s Mr. Jiang was busy all year round, either going to the grassroots or attending meetings to report at the headquarters, or working overtime in the office.

Not coming home for ten days or half a month was normal, eating, dressing, and sleeping in the office was routine.

But you get used to it.

"If you’re looking for him for work, go straight to the office, Uncle Yuan is also there."

Wen Shi and the others thanked her, then led Yi Chichi and Xiao Kang away.

Then, Yi Chichi entered the camp.

This was a new area for her, but she wasn’t a curious person, and she knew that coming into this kind of place, wandering around randomly or looking around was not suitable.

So, from the main gate to the office, she kept her eyes straight ahead.

Even when passing troops returning in file, she didn’t look around.

Old Jiang, busy handling official business, was a bit surprised by their arrival, especially dumbfounded by the appearance of Yi Chichi, the military family member.

"Why are you all here together?"

"For him."

Wen Shi directly pulled Xiao Kang to the front and frankly said, "Leader, my wife has mostly resolved Xiao Kang’s issue, now we want to go to the repair depot to verify."

Straightforward, not an ounce of subtlety.

Lin Qiu Ping and the others felt a bit hopeless listening. This guy talked to them like this too, but how could he speak to the leader like that?

Was he like this every time he reported work?

He really was, Mr. Jiang was already used to it.

Wen Sheng was not only not angry, but narrowed his eyes seriously, "How was it solved?"

"Not completely solved, it’s yet to be verified."

Wen Shi, not afraid to speak, needed neither Lin Qiu Ping and the others to elaborate nor Yi Chichi and Mr. Kang to act, he straightforwardly explained the course of events.

After listening, Mr. Jiang’s smile faded, and his sharp eyes turned to Yi Chichi, "Comrade Xiao Yi, did you hypnotize Xiao Kang to alter his memory?"

"Not exactly."

Yi Chichi didn’t panic, and without boasting, said, her third uncle who had been on the battlefield, with great military merit, later held a high position, his aura and majesty were far stronger than Mr. Jiang.

So, she calmly explained, "I merely described to him a beautiful dreamlike existence, which could be said to suppress or modify his fear of dark, confined spaces."

"This is very different from true hypnosis and memory alteration."

She pointed to Xiao Kang, "If you don’t believe it, ask him yourself, if both types of memories are there." 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

The human brain is deceptive and best at seeking advantages while avoiding harm.

In the absence of contrast, bad memories, when faced with similar scenarios, can emerge from all directions like ghosts, deepening a person’s fear.

However, once there are beautiful memories to compare, when encountering similar situations, the brain will instinctively choose the beautiful side.

What’s more, she reinforced the psychological suggestion.

As a result, the yearning for the beautiful side becomes more pronounced, and repeated encounters can lead the brain to automatically block out the painful side.

As long as the specific cue isn’t broken, Xiao Kang’s claustrophobia could be completely cured.

Mr. Jiang was a pragmatic leader, not likely to take Yi Chichi’s word as gospel.

Therefore, after a detailed conversation with Xiao Kang, he stood up and said, "Let’s go, I’ll come with you to check the results."

Wen Shi and the others were pleased, taking it as consent.

The group cheerfully nodded, as they were about to follow up, Mr. Jiang added, "Bring Old Yuan along as well."

So, the group originally consisting of six people gained two more members.

Soon, they arrived at the repair depot.

Armed soldiers were standing guard, the personnel screening was extremely strict.

Yi Chichi had reason to believe, if not for accompanying Wen Shi and the others today, she might have been apprehended and interrogated just for appearing dozens of meters from the repair depot.

The management was too stringent.

After layers of security checks, upon reaching their destination, a middle-aged man in dirty overalls appeared before them.

"What’s up?"

Speaking in a heavily accented, rough Mandarin, similar to Wen Shi and the others’ accents.

Yi Chichi felt a sense of familiarity hearing it, Mr. Jiang whispered to him aside, afterward, this man left a sentence to wait for half an hour and hurriedly went inside the big iron door.

The door closed, and Yi Chichi and the others waited outside.

After half an hour, the tightly shut door reopened, then—

"Come, lady, put on the blindfold."

The man handed her a black cloth strip, and Yi Chichi, without saying a word, took it and tied it over her eyes, someone even came to check, after confirming it’s fine, Wen Shi reached out his hand, "Wife, I’ll guide you."

"Alright."

Then, she began to move under Wen Shi’s guidance.

Just a few steps, but she could feel that she had entered a large space filled with items, it was serene yet noisy inside.

Serene because no one was talking, noisy due to strange sounds like ’zzzz’, ’bang bang’.

Soon, they reached the destination.

The cloth covering Yi Chichi’s eyes was removed, revealing a strangely shaped object in front of her, with a door, the door was open.

Inside was a dim small lamp, the space was extremely cramped, besides a chair with a hole, there was nothing else.

After looking around, Mr. Jiang asked her, "Xiao Yi, does this meet your requirements for a dark, confined, cramped space?"

"It does."

Yi Chichi nodded, it more than met, it was perfectly satisfactory.

Turn off the light, close the door, with no windows, anyone inside for long would find it unbearable.

The next step was simple, letting Mr. Kang go in for the test.

Before Xiao Kang went in, Yi Chichi seriously instructed him, "If you feel anything wrong with your body, remember to knock immediately, don’t hold back or endure, make sure to remember."
