Chapter 10: Return to the village

Out of the Zhouji shop Lin Yuan felt full of hotness, he had never lost such a big person, in case the boss and the proprietress mistakenly thought that they had taken a fancy to their daughter, and they would not be allowed to stare at themselves like thieves when they came to the Zhouji store in the future?

After clearing his thoughts, he drove a carriage to buy fifty catties of coarse salt at the salt shop, and bought a few hoes, axes and other farm tools in the east of the city, and then turned the head of the cart and returned to the village.

Along the way, he kept playing with Hua Zhantian's big knife, and couldn't help but sigh secretly, Hua Zhantian is also a character, although he has withdrawn from the rivers and lakes, when the rivers and lakes still circulate his legend.

The vendors even made the blades he used back then into toys and sold them to children in and out of the city, singing the praises of national heroes and making future generations not forget history, work hard to defend their homeland, and at the same time earn a lot of silver, which is really a lot of money!

Constantly playing with it, it always feels a little weird. Although this toy knife has no blade, it is obviously basically the same shape as the big knife that Uncle Hua shaved before.

It is rumored that when a beast tide came more than a hundred years ago, Hua Zhantian single-handedly turned the tide around and minimized the harm caused by the beast tide, and was praised as a hero by the people of Chiyang City and its surroundings.

The specific situation has been described into many versions, and Lin Yuan feels that the most reliable theory is that at that time, the city gate was broken, and the reinforcements from the county town had not yet arrived, Hua Zhantian killed the city gate with one knife and killed countless spirit beasts and fierce beasts with his own strength, and blocked the city gate with the corpses of countless fierce beasts and spirit beasts, so that more spirit beasts and fierce beasts did not enter the city, causing a greater tragedy.

A strange thought appeared in Lin Yuan's heart, could Uncle Hua be Hua Zhantian. In the vicinity of Chiyang City, Lin Yuan had only heard of Hua Zhantian except for Uncle Hua that had the same surname, and Lin Yuan could now confirm that the big knife that the children used to play with Hua Zhantian was a copy of the big knife that Uncle Hua used to shave before, could it be that Uncle Hua was a descendant of Hua Zhantian? Or that Uncle Hua's Yuan Gong had broken through to the Tianyuan Realm, and his longevity had been extended to three hundred years old, and the current Uncle Hua was Hua Zhantian more than a hundred years ago.

Lin Yuan frowned, remembering that Uncle Hua also had the habit of walking the rivers and lakes to give himself a few more "bandits", such as calling himself "Flower Dance" when visiting the Qinglou.

Thinking all the way, when I returned to Xiaoyang Village, it happened that the sun was about to set.

Standing at the entrance of the village, I shouted loudly that I was back. A large group of village names came out, and according to the list registered before Lin Yuan left the village, they each took away the items that Lin Yuan had purchased.

After distributing the items, Lin Yuan went to the village chief's house as soon as possible, and the news given by Yang Danian must be delivered to the village chief as soon as possible.

After entering the village chief's yard and seeing the carriage parked in the southeast corner of the courtyard, Lin Yuan unconsciously touched his buttocks, turned his head and saw that the village chief was splitting wood with his ass in the corner of the wall, and the urge to pick up the village chief's pants and count a few calluses on his buttocks inexplicably surged up.

Lin Yuan suddenly sweated evilly, couldn't figure out why he had such an idea, settled down, and walked towards the village chief.

"Village chief, you're splitting wood, do you want to help?" Lin Yuan said politely.

"Yo, it's Xiaolinzi! That's it, I'll do it myself. As he spoke, he was ready to slash at the pier!

Lin Yuan suddenly felt that this pier was a little familiar. Isn't this the cushion used last time I went to Chiyang City to borrow the village chief's carriage? Why did the village chief split the cushion today? With a moment of confusion in his heart, he said: "What a good pier, look at this year, how good it is to keep it!"

"It's very good, I've been using it for more than ten years. It's just that lately I feel that it's useless to keep it, just like some people we used to have a lot of fun together, and then we had a fight, and then we wanted to go back to be friends, but we couldn't find the original taste anymore. Xiao Linzi, have you ever had such an experience?" The village chief stopped his movements and looked up at Lin Yuan quietly, as if he had something in his head.

"When the wood is burned, it can indeed exert his residual heat, but village chief, if you find out that you have burned it when you want it again, won't you regret it?" Lin Yuan continued to persuade.

"I won't regret it!" the village chief looked firm, raised his axe and slashed down, and the pier burst in response!

Looking at the broken pier, Lin Yuan felt that something was missing all of a sudden, as if the egg in his arms was broken all of a sudden, and his heart suddenly felt empty.

"I've used this thing for more than ten years, and I'm a little reluctant to split it, to be honest. The village chief went down with a few more axes, smashed the pier, and continued, "But you can't do it without splitting." ”

Lin Yuan was curious for a while: "What happened to this thing that makes you hate it so much?"

"Blame my mother-in-law for this. Half a year ago, I brought home a golden ferret, chopped it with this cutting board, and then used it to make white chopped chicken, but the white chopped chicken smelled a fart smell, that smell only people who have eaten it know that there is nausea, I feel sick to my stomach when I see this cutting board. The village chief swallowed a mouthful of saliva as he spoke, looked up at the sky for a moment, and continued while chopping firewood: "It must be that my mother-in-law didn't remove the tail gland when she chopped the golden ferret, and she theorized with me that it was confirmed that the stinky gland was cut off in advance, and it was impossible to retain this smell." At that time, I was so angry that I almost slapped it, if you don't clean it up, how can it smell like a fart?

Listening to the village chief's description, Lin Yuan felt that his ears were hot. This pier was not the seat cushion of the carriage at all, it was the cutting board that Aunt Yang took out to bask in the sun when she saw that it was a little moldy, and he mistakenly thought it was the seat cushion of the carriage. And he finally revealed the mystery of why there was a smell of green onions on his butt at that time. As for the reason why the village chief said that the chopping board has an ugly fart, it is that he was driving the carriage at that time for fear of the seat cushion falling, and then reluctantly clamped the cushion with his buttocks, and put a few farts in the process of driving, and he didn't dare to lift his buttocks.

Lin Yuan glanced back at the carriage and saw a cushion made of Ma Teng placed on it, looking at the old appearance, it was estimated that it had been used for at least seven or eight years. Lin Yuan suddenly felt that he wanted to cry without tears, looking at this pier, his heart was also hairy, and he felt that if the village chief didn't split this pier, he would also split it.

"Split, split, out of sight, out of mind. Lin Yuan didn't want to continue to discuss this unpleasant topic, so he branched out and continued, "This golden ferret is a good thing, except for the stinky glands on the tail that can't be eaten, the other parts are all high-quality ingredients, especially the fat on the body, which greatly replenishes the middle qi, and can be worth the ginseng of the same year." ”

"You... This one... Don't drool come out, isn't it just a golden ferret?" After the village chief finished packing up the firewood, he sat on the rattan chair at the door, poured a cup of tea and poured a cup of tea to Lin Yuan, and continued happily, "Two days later, it will be a sting, if there is a golden ferret rushing down from the Hengduan Mountains, I will let my mother-in-law slaughter one for you to eat at that time." ”

Lin Yuan smiled awkwardly, wiped the saliva from his chin and said, "Village Chief, I went to Chiyang City today and heard some bad news in the city. ”

"What's the matter?" The village chief frowned.

"Danian sent me a message. The head of the village of Xiaomanger Village promised his little daughter to the eldest young master of the Qin family as a concubine, and the eldest young master of the Qin family breathed a sigh of relief with our new mayor, saying that Lingyang Lake is in the middle of Xiaoyang Village and Xiaomanger Village, and there should be two villages to jointly develop the resources of Lingyang Lake. Lin Yuan glanced around and whispered to the village chief, "Maybe there will be some movement in Xiaoma Cao Village in the past two days." ”

"These thieves raised something!" said the village chief angrily!

Lin Yuan placed the sacrificial supplies in the courtyard and drove away.

Looking at Lin Yuan's back as he left, the village chief's brows furrowed even tighter. Every year, a certain number of fierce beast corpses flow down from Hengduan Mountain in Lingyang Lake, and when you are lucky, you can still catch spirit beasts. The villagers all organized the salvage collectively, and every year they would sell the salvaged beast carcasses to Lin Yuan and their uncle and nephew at the market price, and it was also a lot of extra income to share it among everyone. In addition, the silver cod grown in Lingyang Lake, Lin Yuan's uncle and nephew are also purchased at a price higher than the market price. Therefore, the life of the villagers of Xiaoyang Village is much better than that of several nearby neighboring villages!
