Chapter 1 A Village in the Mountains

Next Chapter

"Brother, let's go home for dinner. ”

A crisp and pleasant cry came from the side of the river, and on the bank of the river, a little girl who looked seven or eight years old, kept looking towards the center of the river while shouting.

The little girl was wearing a simple blue coarse cloth dress, the skirts were all worn to the brim, and there were two or three patches around the waist, sewn into a floral shape, and it could be seen that the sewing was very delicate.

Although he is only seven or eight years old and has a childish face, he can see from his big bright eyes that he will definitely be a beauty embryo in the future.

At this time, in the reeds in the middle of the river, an eleven or twelve-year-old boy was leaning against Tutui, his hands pillowed behind his head, Erlang's legs crossed, and a pair of bright eyes were staring at the fishing rod on the river.

Hearing the cries from the shore, the young man got up and looked at the girl by the river, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face. While neatly packing up the fishing rod, he responded, "It's coming, it's coming." ”

The boy staggered towards the village not far away, where a few wisps of cooking smoke rose from the smoke of the fish basket in one hand and a fishing rod made of purple bamboo in the mountains, while the little girl followed in a bouncing circle.

The boy's name is Ou Feng. The name is that when he was born, it coincided with a drought in the sky and the harvest in the field was not good, and his father Ou Ruohai hoped to have a good harvest in the coming year. Although it is casual, Ou Feng is already very satisfied, at least much stronger than a few dogs in the village.

The continent where Ou Feng is located is called Cangqing Continent, and the village where he lives is located in the 100,000 mountains on the border of Qingzhou in Cangqing Continent.

Of course, Ou Feng didn't know about these, because the farthest place he had been to since he was a child was Baishui Town, which was dozens of kilometers away from Lijiazhuang. It was a time when he followed his father to a distant relative's birthday party.

"Squeak"

Ou Feng pushed open the wooden door outside the courtyard and saw his mother wiping the small wooden table in the courtyard, while his father Ou Ruohai was coming out of the kitchen with two plates of nests.

Hearing the sound of pushing the door, Ou Feng's mother raised her head and saw Ou Feng entering the door, and immediately said in a loud voice: "You kid sneaked out to play again, can't you help your father do farm work at home?" Don't look at your sister is still young, I don't know how many times more sensible than you......"

Ou Feng was obviously used to it, and pursed his lips and did not say anything. He knew that if he opened his mouth, then the meal would not be clean.

Sister Ou Qian, who was walking behind, took the fish basket from Ou Feng's hand, trotted forward to hold her mother's hand, and said sweetly: "Mother, my brother caught three big fish today, let's eat a whole fish feast in the evening." ”

Looking at the well-behaved daughter beside him, and looking at Ou Feng who was standing next to him, he couldn't help but think about why there was such a big gap when he was born by himself.

A family of four around a small wooden table, two plates of nests, a plate of green vegetables and a plate of pickled radish pickled by Ou Feng's mother is the family's lunch today.

After eating, her sister Ou Qian helped her mother clean up the dishes and chopsticks, her father Ou Ruohai leaned on a chair and smoked a dry cigarette, Ou Feng sat next to him and looked at the sky with his chin and didn't know what he was thinking.

Ou Ruohai smoked a dry cigarette while looking at Ou Feng beside him, and stopped talking, but finally sighed in his heart and spoke.

"Feng'er, you have also grown up, I discussed with your mother, you don't want to go to the school from tomorrow onwards, I asked your third uncle to find you a blacksmith apprentice job in the town, and there are twenty copper plates for a month to eat and live, and the pay will be higher after completing the study. After a few years, if you are lucky, you may marry a daughter-in-law like your third uncle. ”

Ou Feng was obviously stunned when he heard his father's words, and after a while, he just said "oh" to accept.

Although Ou Feng is usually stubborn, he still knows the hard work of his father and mother in running the family, and he is the male in the family, so he should also share part of the pressure. So I often go to the mountains to chop firewood in my free time, catch some river fish and make soup for my sister to drink, after all, my sister is still growing at this age.

Ou Ruohai was also stunned when he heard Ou Feng's simple answer, he thought about Ou Feng's countless reactions before he spoke, but Ou Feng's concise and clear answer suddenly made him feel a touch of sadness and a trace of relief in his heart.

In the afternoon, on the haystack under the big locust tree at the entrance of the village.

The scorching sun shone across the earth, and the summer cicadas in the trees chirped tirelessly.

Ou Feng crossed Erlang's legs, lying on the haystack with blades of grass in his mouth, I don't know whether he was sleeping or being blinded by the afternoon sun.

Lying next to him were his playmates from childhood to adulthood, Li Lei, Li Yu, and Li Erhu lying next to him. These two brothers are fighting at this time, and in the future, when the two brothers grow up, they will go out of the mountain village and go to the outside world, if they are fortunate enough to worship the Sect, and after learning a good martial arts, what name to take when they go around and fight for righteousness is the loudest.

"I thought about it...... It's called Jixiang Village Thunderstorm Twin Heroes!"

Li Yu slapped his thigh and shouted, while his brother Li Lei beside him thought for a moment with his eyebrows on his face, and nodded heavily in agreement.

It seems that for the two brothers born in the mountains, this seems to be the loudest name they can think of. They can put Jixiang Village in their name, and it seems that they also have a deep affection for the village that raised them.

At the same time, Ou Feng also opened his eyes, looking at the sky without blinking.

He didn't actually fall asleep, he was just closing his eyes to recuperate, and he listened silently to the quarrel between the two brothers, Li Lei and Li Yu, from beginning to end, but he didn't speak, but the corners of his mouth inadvertently rose slightly.

Ou Feng looked at the sky, at this time a line of geese flew by, the village school Mr. said that whenever the weather warms up, the geese will return from the south to the north to breed. When the weather is cold, the geese will fly from the north to the south, which is their fate.

"Then where is my fate?" Ou Feng couldn't help but think.

"Is it really just to be a blacksmith apprentice in Whitewater Town, and after a few years of study, he has a certain amount of savings to beg for a daughter-in-law, for the sake of the children, for the sake of the whole family, knocking and beating by the blacksmith's furnace all day until he is old and old, until he dies?" Ou Feng couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

"Puff"

With the sound of water after something broke, Ou Feng felt a burst of wetness coming from his body, and the snoring sound like thunder on the other side of his body also stopped abruptly, and Ou Feng came back from his contemplation.

Ou Feng looked sideways at Li Erhu, who was sleeping beside him, only to see that the latter was suddenly awakened by water splashing from his sleep and was looking at him blankly.

The water on Li Erhu's head from nowhere was completely wet, and the hair that had entered the chicken nest was sticking to his brain door one by one at this time, and with drops of water falling down his hair, the coarse linen clothes on his upper body were completely wet.

"Hahahaha. ”

A roar of laughter came from the stone mill next to the haystack.

There were seven or eight teenagers standing on the edge of the stone mill, laughing heartily at this time. Each also held one or two balls of water filled with water from sheep's intestines.

"Li Xin, what are you going to do?"

When the two brothers Li Lei and Li Yu saw this scene, they jumped off the haystack and pointed at the teenagers and shouted angrily.

"I didn't want to do anything, I just saw that it was too hot and dry to quench the fire for you. ”

There were several teenagers standing, and the teenager in the middle spoke while playing with the water balloon in his hand.

This Li Xin is the son of the village chief of Jixiang Village, usually relying on the identity of the village chief's son, he is used to being arrogant and domineering in the village, all the children of the same age in the village are around him, and the children who are unwilling to listen to his instructions are usually bullied by him, and the parents of those children have to swallow their anger because of the village chief's bad face.

Then master, I'll put out the fire for you today!" Li Lei said, rolled up his cuffs and rushed over.

Seeing this scene, Li Xin had a playful smile on the corner of his mouth, and said: "It seems that the lesson given to you last time is not enough, and you still want to be beaten, brother, use water balloon to extinguish the fire for them." With that, the water balloon in his hand was smashed towards Ou Feng.

I saw seven or eight water balls draw a parabola in the air and fly towards Ou Feng's side, Li Lei and Li Yu The two brothers saw the situation and rushed over to fight with them.

Suddenly, a figure stood in front of them, it was Li Erhu.

In an instant, the balloon of water that fell from the sky smashed down. Almost all the water balloons smashed on Li Erhu's body, and none of the clothes on his body were dry. Ou Feng and Li Lei, who were protected, were only drenched by the water balloon that smashed on Li Erhu.

"Brother Feng, Brother Lei, Brother Yu, I'm fine, I'm strong, let's ignore them. ”

Seeing that Ou Feng and the three of them were not very wet by the water balloon, Li Erhu was relieved, and spared his hair that was wet by the water balloon and said with a smile. Although he is stupid, he also knows that the former is not used to seeing others bullying him and wants to help him get angry.

Li Yu looked at the silly big man in front of him, and was speechless for a while.

Although Li Erhu's name is Li Erhu. But he is not a tiger at all, he is kind to everyone he meets, and the people in the village think he is stupid, only Ou Feng, the three best brothers who play, know that Li Erhu is not stupid, but kind-hearted, and would rather be wronged than blush.

But there is one thing that Li Erhu fits his name very well, and that is his body type.

Li Xin, the son of the village chief, is the best in their village, he is already six feet tall at the age of eleven, and Li Erhu is a head taller than Li Xin.

This is also why Li Xin always likes to bully Li Erhu, because bullying a person who looks strong and mighty is far more convenient than bullying a weak person, and it is the kind that does not fight back.

In addition, Li Erhu has two peculiarities.

Li Erhu is particularly able to eat, and can eat the meals of three adult croppers in one meal. If it weren't for Li Erhu's father being a carpenter in the village, maybe Li Erhu would have been starved to death before he grew up so big.

And Li Erhu also said that he still tightened his belt to eat, because he also knew that his food was amazing, and he didn't want his parents to worry about him every day. He said his biggest dream was to be able to have a full meal with a free stomach.

Another point is that Li Erhu is particularly able to sleep, and he can fall asleep in less than two seconds when he is free.

A few times, Li Erhu and Ou Feng were walking in the fields outside the village and suddenly fell to the ground, which scared Ou Feng indistinctly, but when Ou Feng was desperately shouting for help, Li Erhu woke up slowly. Sleepy-eyed told Ou Feng that he had just fallen asleep.

For this reason, Li Erhu's father and mother also specially invited Lang Zhong in the town to see Li Erhu, but Lang Zhong couldn't find out the cause of the illness after hearing about it for a long time, and finally had to give up.

Looking at Li Erhu's honest face, Li Lei had no choice but to say to Ou Feng beside him: "Fengzi, do you say that we will not come out with this tone?"

Ou Feng looked up at the group of people who were gloating on the other side: "Our brothers can only be bullied by us, and others ...... No way!"

After saying that, he rushed to Li Xin on the opposite side.

Seeing the Oufeng people rushing straight over, Li Xin also shouted, not to be outdone, and greeted him.

Suddenly, a group of people scuffled together, but when they beat Li Xin, they found that something was wrong.

He found that although Li Erhu was desperately helping them resist next to Ou Feng and the three of them, there were also a lot of fists hitting them, but the three of them didn't care about it, and the fists desperately beckoned to him, and only hit him in the face!

When everyone was pulled away by the adults in the village, none of Li Xin's face was intact, and his head was already swollen.

Although Ou Feng and the four of them also had blue noses and swollen faces, they couldn't help laughing when they looked at Li Xin's appearance. But the movement was too big, tearing the wound on the face, and the four of them wailed again.
