Chapter 283. A village in the mountains


chapter283The three members of the Su family in the mountain village had no idea what happened to Zhang Wu.At this moment, they had already passed through the cover of the Meteoric Immortal Forest, crossed the narrow mountain range, and left the Yuan Kingdom and entered the Dai Kingdom.Seriously, this road is not easy to walk.Even if the long and narrow mountain range did not produce anything, in order to guard against Dai Guo, the Yuan State Government still sent cultivators to guard here, and established many small villages along the road.And in order not to reveal their whereabouts, the three members of the Su family passed through the door all the way without entering, relying on the silt to avoid the cultivator's divine sense, and quietly bypassed.However, this is only the first level.Perhaps on the map, the narrow mountains are nothing more than a mass of line drawings.But as they walked through it, they found that the area was larger than they had imagined, and the terrain was steep and rugged, and before the time reached the cold winter, the top of the mountain was already covered with snow, which showed the high altitude.And in addition, the number of spirit plants and demon beasts here is very, very small, which makes them more and more stretched to the limit of their resources, which has already consumed a large number of resources in the territory of Mizusawa.Therefore, by the time they crossed the mountain range and reached the periphery of Dai Kingdom, a layer of white frost had fallen on the ground.Seeing the outline of the house from afar, Su Yulang, who was already dirty like a little mud monkey, was about to jump up with joy.He was still holding his soft whip in his right hand, at this time, his soft whip was no longer as glamorous as before, not only was the color dirty, but the hair of the monster beast became frizzy, and he poked his head out of it restlessly.But Su Yulang didn't have the heart to think about this at this time, he dragged Bian Qing's robe with his left hand, and said excitedly: "Eminem, there is a village." ”Finally saw the crowd, Bian Qing was also very happy, but in the end he was an adult, and his emotions were much more restrained: "Hmm." ”Although it is only a mountain apart, Dai Guo is very different from Yuan Guo.Most of the houses in the Yuan Kingdom are brick and stone structures, and ordinary people who can't afford to use red bricks and blue bricks will also throw mud embryos to make yellow mud and build houses by themselves, but on Dai Guo's side, only extremely wealthy people will use large rocks and bricks to build houses, and other ordinary people use wood, and Su Ziyi even uses thatch in the village in front of them.To put it bluntly, it's actually poor.Dai was not ruled by the two fixed forces of the government and the family for thousands of years like the Yuan State, and the complex and belligerent domestic forces caused the instability of the domestic situation, further inhibiting the people's livelihood and economy of the entire country.Therefore, compared with the Yuan Kingdom, the standard of living is more than one or two points worse.Su Ziyi's appearance did not alarm the people in the village, perhaps it should be said that for the people in the village, they have seen too many people like Su Ziyi and them.After all, this world has never been peaceful.This village is not big, Su Ziyi only used his divine sense to sweep, and he looked at the village and the fields outside, and then he was not surprised at all to find that the entire village was full of ordinary people, and there was not a single cultivator.It was already afternoon when they entered the village, but because the harvest season had passed, most of the villagers remained in the village, except for a few children who were still running around the open fields.Only these children will show a curious light in their eyes when they see the Su family and their party, and the eyes of adults are all numb.Because of the hardships of life, most of the villagers here have yellow faces and thin muscles, and the clothes on their bodies are also patched and patched, black and torn, and Su Yulang is full of embarrassment.You know, when they were at their worst in Luoshan Village, they had never been so miserable.Su Ziyi doesn't have as many emotions as Su Yulang, he just wants to find a place to rest at the moment, even if this village is small and broken.He stopped a child casually, asked the direction of the village chief's house, and casually threw a piece of candy to the child, and then took Bian Qing and Su Yulang towards the village chief's house.And the kid who got the candy didn't expect that these people who looked similar to them were so rich, and immediately ran home with the candy cubes.As the head of a village, the conditions of the village chief's family are not much better.Standing outside the fence made of dead branches, Su Ziyi bent his knuckles and knocked on the courtyard door, which immediately attracted the attention of the family who were busy sifting insects in the yard: "May I ask if this is the village chief's house?"

”The village chief's family has a thriving population, and when he called him like this, more than a dozen pairs of eyes suddenly turned their heads to look at it.Among them, the hunchbacked old man, who had been sitting next to him with a smoking gun in his mouth, stood up, his bronzed face was full of folds, and his steps trembled and walked over, and he said in a dialect: "I am, who are you?"

”It's a bit hard to hear, but it's not that you can't understand it.Su Ziyi took out a small piece of silver and threw it to the village chief: "We are just passing by, and we want to use it here for two days, but I don't know if it's inconvenient."

Of course, there will be no shortage of money. ”As soon as the silver was in his hands, the village chief squeezed it vigorously, and after confirming that it was true, the expression on his face became much better.It's just that in the end, as the village head, it is impossible to recklessly agree just for some money, so after turning his tongue in his mouth, he said: "One day is okay, but two days is not good." ”This kind of generous stranger must not be able to hide it when he comes here, so staying for a long time will only leave a curse."

Okay."

Su Ziyi didn't have too many thoughts about this, he just wanted to find a place to take a hot bath and have a good meal."

Then come with me."

Seeing that he responded, the village chief was also relieved.And he looked at Su Ziyi's attitude, and estimated that Su Ziyi and they should be just wealthy refugees, not aliens and cultivators, which greatly relieved him.The village chief found a villager's house for the Su family, and under his witness, Su Ziyi gave the other party two grains of silver in exchange for a fairly clean house.And after getting those two grains of silver, the owner of this house was also very happy, and after hearing Su Ziyi and them say that they needed hot water to take a bath, they immediately went down to boil water."

Are we going to give too much?"

After entering the house, Bian Qing frowned.He and Su Ziyi have both lived hard lives, so they naturally know how great the purchasing power of silver will be in such a village, but-"But I only have silver and gold on me, and I don't have any copper coins." ”Su Ziyi said helplessly.took turns to take a hot bath and put on new clothes, and the mental outlook of the three members of the Su family, which was different from that of the people in the village, was completely exposed.Su Ziyi steamed his hair with spiritual power, pushed open the door and walked out, and saw the two children of the owner's house shrinking in the corner looking at Su Yulang who was wearing brocade, with envy in his eyes.He paused for a moment, and then walked towards Su Yulang and Bian Qing as usual.Everyone in the world has their own suffering, and he can't help them.Bian Qing and Su Yulang had never suffered such a formation of being watched, even if the other party was well hidden, but as cultivators, their eyes on people were too sharp, so when the two children looked at them, they were like a man's back, and it was not until Su Ziyi came over that they breathed a sigh of relief."

Rest here tonight, and we'll leave tomorrow morning."

The village is so broken that they simply don't get the information they want."

Okay."

In the evening, Su Ziyi and the others only ate two mouthfuls of the food prepared by the owner of the house and left the table.And as soon as they left, the two children of the housekeeper's family snatched the bowl of black meat on the table like hungry wolves, making the houseowner and his wife want to be angry but afraid of disturbing Su Ziyi's family, so they dare not speak.Night was approaching, and the people in the house did not see that there was not a single star in the sky tonight, but that a large dark cloud had drifted from the other side of the mountain, and in the middle of the night, it began to rain.As soon as it rained, Su Ziyi, who was sitting cross-legged in the room and meditating, woke up.As soon as he opened his eyes, he just met Bian Qing, who had also woken up.He shook his head: "It's okay, it's just raining." ”Bian Qing closed her eyes and meditated again.Only this time, not long after he had been in his meditation, a cry came from the depths of the village through the rainy night, waking up the entire village.The owner of this house also moved.He hurried out of the door with a hat on, and returned after most of the hour, and as soon as he returned, the mistress came over with all the soldiers.Even if their voices were very low, but Su Ziyi and the three of them were all cultivators, how could they not hear it?

They didn't even need to be deliberate, and the sound of the other party's conversation got into their ears."

What's going on?"

The people in the village are very old, and the hostess of this house is only in her thirties, and her voice and face are already like that of a middle-aged person."

The daughter of the Chen family was sent back.""

What?

Sent back?

”The woman was surprised: "The other party will actually send people back?"

You must know that the daughter of the Chen family has been taken away by them for almost four years, why did she suddenly ......

"Shhh, don't talk about the cultivator's affairs." ”The man was obviously very cautious, and stopped his wife before he could say more, and sighed at the end: "It's okay to send it back, look at the girl's appearance, she won't survive tonight." ”"Huh?""

You didn't see it."

Speaking of this, the male owner was obviously very unbearable: "The daughter of the Chen family still looks like an eighteen-year-old girl, there are more wrinkles on her face and gray hair on her head than ours, her eyes are gone, and she is also thin."

Hey, I guess it's not going well. ”Although he pitied the other party very much, he was afraid of the coercion of the cultivators, so he was still very reserved.After the man said these words, the hostess did not speak for a long time, and after a long time, she said quite sadly: "How can you live this day." ”"In addition to the Chen family, the daughters of several other families have also been arrested, and it seems that the result will not be very good.You say, these girls are so good and have never done anything bad, why do they have to suffer so much?
