Going to the countryside in the Northeast, educated youths became popular in the village with embroi

Chapter 71 Herd Psychology
"???"

Everyone looked at each other, this was the captain's voice.

"Why did the captain come here at this time?"

Zhou Qiuyu looked at the weather outside. The falling snow made people feel bad.

There are still people going out in this damn weather.

"There must be something wrong!"

Yi Chichi urged, "Old Bai, go and have a look."

"gone."

Before he finished speaking, Bai Chen had already put on his shoes and ran to open the door.

The wind was strong, and the howling cold wind carried snowflakes and drifted in from the wide open door, bringing a biting chill.

Fortunately, Bai Chen closed the door quickly. Even so, Yi Chichi and the others were still shivering from the wind.

"This weather is really too cold!"

Wang Nan tightened the cotton-padded jacket around her body and lifted up the thin jacket on her legs to feel better.

"It's probably going to be over 20 degrees today."

Yi Chichi rubbed his slightly stiff hands, took a thermos bottle, poured himself a cup of boiling water, and asked, "Do you want it?"

"want!"

Wu Yongfei, who was actively scratching, was the first to respond, followed by Qi Yang and the others.

Enamel jars were handed over one by one, and Yi Chichi took a thermos bottle and poured some for each of them.

At this time, when Bai Chen saw the captain, before he could speak, he heard him say slightly hastily, "Bai Zhiqing, call Qi Zhiqing and Yi Yatou to come to the commune with me."

"what?"

Hearing this sentence off guard, Bai Chen didn't react and said stupidly, "What are you going to do?"

"Pick up a few people."

Bai Chen wanted to ask someone, but when he saw the captain's serious expression, he finally swallowed the words that came to his mouth and nodded.

"Captain, why don't you come in first and sit down for a while? We need to change clothes."

The more than ten kilometers from Kaoshantun to the commune may not seem like that far, but don’t forget what the weather is like today.

If I don't wrap myself up tightly, I'm afraid my body will become stiff before the commune arrives.

"Need not."

The captain waved his hand, turned around and walked towards the east road, "I'll go to the barn to hitch the carriage first. You guys should hurry up and find me."

Before he finished speaking, he added as if he remembered something, "By the way, remember to ask Yi Yatou to bring the medicine box and prepare all the medicine."

"……it is good!"

The wind and snow were blinding, and soon, the captain's figure disappeared from the field of vision, leaving only a series of footprints, which were quickly covered with white snow.

Bai Chen turned around and went back to the house. Without waiting for Yi Chichi and the others to ask after hearing the noise, he said concisely and concisely, "Lao Yi, take the medicine box and Lao Qi to accompany the captain to the commune, and I will go too. "

"What to do?"

Yi didn't want to go for a long time. The wind was too strong and the temperature was too low. She just wanted to sit on the warm kang and look beautiful.

This kind of crazy weather is not suitable for going out.

"do not know."

Bai Chen shook his head, "But something happened to me."

I don’t know what the specific matter was. “Anyway, I see that the captain is not in a good mood.”

Liu Chengqi can't be happy, and he can't be happy.

Even if he was beaten to death, he would never have imagined that someone would be sent down to their village at this time.

The notice came so suddenly that he didn't even know how to arrange it.

So, when Yi Chichi arrived at the barn fully armed, the captain was telling the branch secretary and them to hurry up and finish the house.

The kang must also be prepared, as well as firewood and the like.

The faces of the cadres on the team became uglier than the last, and the scorekeeper was complaining even more. The atmosphere was a bit solemn, causing Yi Chichi and the three of them to stand aside like quails, not daring to move.

They were afraid that they would be offended by the party secretary who was in a bad mood.

Finally, the captain finished his instructions.

He turned around and climbed onto the carriage stand, beckoning Yi Chichi and the others to get on the bus.

There was a shed built on the frame of the bike. It was quite simple, but it could provide some protection from the wind and snow.

The carriage floor was covered with thick straw and a leather mattress was placed on it. I didn’t know what kind of leather it was, but it was furry and quite warm.

Yi Chichi and the others climbed onto the frame of the carriage. Seeing that they were seated, the captain once again told the party secretary and the others, "Hurry up. The kang will be heated in advance and more hot water will be prepared. We will be back as soon as we receive the person."

"I know, you can rest assured that I'm on the team."

The branch secretary took a puff of dry smoke, his weather-stained brows and eyes looming in the dense smoke.

Yi Chichi saw sorrow in his eyes.

She knew in her heart that the person she picked up might have a different identity, and might have some connections with some people in Guoshantun.

When I asked about it on the way to the commune, it was true.

"There are five people in total. You are not allowed to talk when you get to the commune. I will negotiate."

"it is good!"

Yi Chichi and the others nodded obediently. They were really not suitable to come forward in such a matter.

Anyway, their task today is to follow them and do their part well.

but--

"Uncle Captain, there are so many young and strong guys in the team, why do you want to call us?!"

Yi Chichi really didn't understand this. Logically speaking, this kind of thing would never happen to educated youths like them.

Bai Chen and others also wanted to know the answer. The captain sighed when he saw this, "The educated young people in the team are too young to do anything for fear of scaring them. The older ones have low education and have only attended literacy classes for a few days." "Ban, they don't know much about the truth as you do, so I'm worried that if I call them, I'll cause some trouble."

Yi Chichi and the others suddenly realized that this was the case.

Affected by the general environment, people are easily carried forward by the trend.

Right or wrong is not important. What is important is that many people cannot resist the influence of herd mentality.

No one wants to be the one who doesn’t fit in.

Especially people who are uneducated, have no knowledge and do not have the ability to think and think. They live in a state of confusion, not knowing what they want or what they should do.

The main theme is that I don’t need to think, and I can’t think of any problems and follow the crowd.

Okay?

A matter of opinion.

The general environment was like this, and from Yi Chichi's perspective from later generations, she couldn't evaluate it.

I won't even evaluate it.

After all, she is also an ordinary and ordinary member of all living beings. She can't make rules and can't change anything.

What we can do is to hide ourselves, not to follow the crowd, and not to try to change anything.

She is willing to lend a hand as long as it does not affect herself.

Forget about anything else.

She didn't even think about hugging her thighs.

Therefore, she chose to hold Uncle Yao Zi's medicine box in silence for the rest of the journey, listening to Bai Chen's chat.

There was thick snow on the road, and the horses were afraid of the cold. Even if the captain and the others put linings in the hoofs to prevent the snow from damaging the horses' hoofs, and even wore a cape like a raincoat on the horse, the horse's speed was still not very fast.

It took four people and one horse more than an hour to reach their destination over a road of more than ten kilometers.

Then, Yi Chichi saw five people shivering in the corner of the eaves in the cold wind.

The face of one of them was so familiar that she almost exclaimed.
