When they arrived at the school, the students' military boots were filled with rainwater. With every step they took, they could hear the sound of water sploshing about. The flashlight swept across the most imposing four-story elementary school in the village. It had red bricks and white walls. Xu Wen whispered to Ye Jian, "It's the best building in the village."
It was indeed the best building.
After passing through two villages, they saw mud-brick houses from the 1970s and 1980s or red brick houses. There was no paint on the outside. They were very simple red brick buildings. This was a huge visual impact for the students from the big cities.
Just like Xu Wen.
If not for this outdoor training in the forest, she wouldn't have known that there were mud-brick houses in this era. The mud-brick houses she had seen before were only recorded in videos.
