Chapter 67: Two Flowers Bloom
It's a very small village, with only about a dozen families in total. It is roughly similar to what Qin Yue saw on his mobile phone, just from the scale of the village and the material of the house.
It is not difficult to see that it is really very poor.
And what Qin Yue brought here, it can be said to be a very huge fortune.
Because Qin Yue found that in the village, there was only one family of pig raisers, the village chief. And there are only two of them, which look different from ordinary pigs, with brown lines on their bodies, like a mixture of domestic pigs and wild boars.
There is only one cow, and when Qin Yue inquired, it was also the village chief's house.
Rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, rely on the water to eat the water.
In this village, there are relatively few people who farm, and most of them are hunters. Usually they are shaving food in the mountains, and every family grows some side dishes, which is enough to eat by themselves.
Qin Yue also found that most of the people who came were in the prime of life, the elderly and children. Like Qin Yue, young adults are very rare.
When he asked Uncle Wang for advice, the answer he got was.
The young men went out, and went out to wander. Two years ago, a mountaineering enthusiast came to this place and told the young people of the village about the world of flowers outside.
You know, they had been to the farthest place before, that is, to another village at the foot of the mountain. The village was nice, there was a path leading to the town, although it turned into a puddle of mud when it rained.
But there's a lot better than here, and here, there's no electricity.
When Qin Yue first heard it, he was also a little frightened, although he had seen this kind of place in books. But it's really here, immersive, and it's really a different experience.
Qu Haomiao regretted it a little at this time, because his mobile phone couldn't even receive a signal, not to mention, there was nothing here that could charge him.
Qin Yue's mobile phone is okay, and the battery has been returned, so it will not be a problem to persist for a week.
It was relatively simple, and they couldn't live in Qin Yue's group, and in the end, Qin Yue and the others still came to the village chief's house.
The village chief also received Qin Yue very warmly, although his face was still sad, but he lost any courtesy, and the elderly paid more attention to these.
There are still two vacant houses in the village chief's house, and there was none of them. One is the room of the strong son, and the other is the room where the village chief put his coffin.
The old people in the village pay attention to this, the so-called coffin book, which is the money for the old man to prepare the coffin for himself when he is old. The elderly in the countryside will buy coffins and put them in their homes.
Who would have thought that the village chief didn't use it himself, but used it for his grandson.
White-haired people send black-haired people, the saddest thing in the world is the thing, nothing more than this.
The village chief's house used to have a room, which was his son's room. Later, when he was hunting, he accidentally let the beast go down the slope and broke his leg.
Later, he became lame, couldn't think about it, and committed suicide. His wife also ran away, and he didn't know where he went, leaving behind an old couple and a child.
Now that house is a cattle pen.
The village chief is the richest family in the village, but the pillar of the family has fallen. In desperation, the village chief sold a cow, opened a few acres of land, and changed to farming.
The mountain road is not easy to walk, and it is said that it is a mountain road, but in fact, there is no road at all. I heard that the village chief brought ten steamed buns with him, and only brought the cow back four days later.
Now, this house is almost down. Although it has been renovated several times by Hadron, it can't hide the devastation of the years, and there is almost no furniture in the house.
In two rooms, there is a room for the strong son, and a bed. The other room, nothing.
Qu Haomiao and Yu Tianhe were arranged by Qin Yue to Qiangzi's house. I plan to go to the mountain wall tonight to see, it doesn't matter if there is a bed or not, just bring Qin Chifan with you.
If she doesn't bring it, she will have two meals, and the village chief will probably have to find his grandson.
After a cursory look at the room, it was really clean, nothing but dust.
Led Qin Chifan to the threshold outside, where the village chief was sitting, looking at the rest of the village. Holding something and cheering, a strong man with a table in front of him with pork on it was cutting meat for everyone.
Judging from his skillful deboning and meat cutting, he really looks like a hunter. Looking at the pile of things, Qin Chifan was a little unconcerned, these two days.
She is completely accustomed to cooked food, and has no interest in raw meat, so she is really frugal and luxury.
Of course, it is also possible that Qin Yue didn't tell her, those were all prepared for her by the city.
Looking at the old village chief, Qin Yue asked, "Village chief, none of those young people have come back?"
The village chief shook his head and did not speak.
"Really?" Qin Yue didn't want to continue to bother the old man, Qiangzi was only buried yesterday, and he may not have come out of his grief yet.
It is also possible that in this life, you will not be able to get out.
Walking out with Qin Chifan, many people's eyes looked over. They smiled happily and sincerely, especially the villagers who were already holding the pork in their hands.
After Qin Yue nodded to them, he took Qin Chifan and walked towards the back mountain. On this road, Qin Yue has already inquired about Uncle Wang, and it is a very conspicuous location, and you will definitely be able to see it when you go up the mountain.
It's not the first time that Qin Yue has walked this kind of mountain road, not to mention that here, you can occasionally find traces that belong to humans, which are left by hunters.
The two of them quickly shuttled through the woods, and Qin Yue paid careful attention to the surrounding environment. Looking for the very obvious stone wall that Uncle Wang said.
Originally, Qin Yue wanted to check Qiangzi's body first, but who would have thought that he had already passed the first seven years and was buried. Qin Yue can't dig people out and take a look, the old man of the village chief has to fight hard with a cane.
After some rushing, Qin Yue found a huge stone wall with a little white, which was indeed very conspicuous in the surrounding yellow woods.
In the village, the villagers made dinner early, after all, there are no electric lights here at night, and even candles are rare.
At the dinner table of the village chief's house, the village chief, the village chief's daughter-in-law, Yu Tianhe and Qu Haomiao were four people. In front of one of them was a large bowl containing the gruel and mung beans that could be counted with one hand.
Qu Haomiao asked: "Didn't Brother Qin bring so much pork, why is it just one dish." ”
Indeed, in front of them, apart from a small bowl of blackened, slightly sour pickles, there was only a plate of oil residue.
Qu Haomiao held some moldy chopsticks, picked up a piece of oil residue, and suppressed the nausea in his heart. Rest assured in my mouth, I chewed for a long time and didn't swallow it.
The oil residue is a product of pork fat and lard, and it tastes pretty good. But this dish of the village chief's house only has a little salt and some spoiled soy sauce in it, which is difficult to swallow.
Not only Qu Haomiao, but Yu Tianhe had never eaten this thing, although he was poor. But it's also a city person, and the most inferior thing to eat is white-flour steamed buns.
His current strength is low, and it has something to do with the fact that he didn't have good nutrition when he was a child. After arriving at Qu's house, it was even more popular, and the salary and benefits alone crushed ninety percent of the people in H County.
He is also a gruel that has not suffered too much, stirring in the bowl, and even the chopsticks can't stand up. I took a sip, and although the disadvantage is that it doesn't taste good, the advantage is that it doesn't taste good.
Just like drinking plain water, he can still accept a little.
Qu Haomiao is too, just drinking porridge and other pickles, he doesn't dare to move. Sitting on the table, you can smell the sour smell, and the smell of the poor sour Xiucai in ancient times is probably this pickle smell.
Not only the taste, but also some white substances on the pickles, which Qu Haomiao didn't understand. But there should be no big harm to the human body, because the village chief and his wife eat quite casually.
After drinking the porridge, Yu Tianhe and Qu Haomiao said hello to the village chief and his wife and returned to their rooms.
Presumably, with the fact that the owner of this room had just died, Qu Haomiao was even more afraid of the quilt, and the smell on it was also very strong. It's the kind of big summer, the sweaty feet that run every day, and the smell of stinky socks that have been worn for a week.
Qu Haomiao couldn't think of how he should sleep at night, the countryside he knew was not the same as it was now.
The countryside in his imagination should not be red bricks and black tiles, a bunch of livestock. Can you still see big dogs and calves, chickens, ducks and geese or something, and there is a pond for raising fish at the door.
That is the countryside that Qu Haomiao knows, if he knows that the real situation is like this, then he will probably consider it.
Moreover, Qin Yue also left him behind. didn't even say hello to him, so he ran away with Qin Chifan and went to explore the mountains. Qu Haomiao felt that even if he went to the mountains, it was much better than here.
He also resents Qin Yue, and if he doesn't take him, forget it, so it's okay for Qin Chifan to stay.
Qu Haomiao was reading a novel recently called "My Monster Girlfriend", and then, you know.
It's one thing to read a novel, but it's another thing to really encounter it and dare to do it.
Of course, this matter has to be known to Qin Yue, and Qu Haomiao has to know what is called 'old father's anger'.
Qu Haomiao rummaged in the box, obviously, Wen Ting didn't have anything like a quilt that he had prepared. It's useless, it still takes up space, but there are flashlights and power banks.
There was also a pile of change of clothes and snacks, and a pile of banknotes, not everywhere, abandoned cash transactions. No matter where it is, Grandpa Mao is always hard currency.
But in this situation, money is useless, Qu Haomiao is holding a flashlight. looked at Yu Haoming and asked, "Let's go to the mountains to find Brother Qin!"
Yu Tianhe didn't want to get close to the bed, but he couldn't stand all night, and there wasn't even a stool in the room. There are two cabinets, but you can see the inside directly from the side, and I don't know if it's the big hole of the mouse.
In addition to the big holes, there are many small holes, and Yu Tianhe doesn't dare to try them. For fear that I would slap myself lightly and shoot a bunch of termites, I would be in trouble when the time came, and I wouldn't even dare to lean on the two cabinets.
Although Qin Yue had instructed him before, Yu Tianhe also wanted to find Qin Yue a little, he always felt that . There's something wrong with this village, but I can't say why.
After thinking about it for a long time, Qu Haomiao kept holding a flashlight and dangling it on Yu Tianhe's stomach. He urged him to make a decision quickly, and he also said, "Anyway, I won't live here." Either you accompany me to find Brother Qin, or I will go to the creek to play for the night, I don't want to stand like this. ”
