Chapter 384: Turning his back to his hometown
The giant thought for a moment and said, "Don't be reckless for the time being, you let me think back to the scene of the year and see if there is anything missing, these people are very strange anyway." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
I snorted. Say, "I've invited you to eat, are you hungry?"
The giant was stunned, and there was a gurgling sound in his stomach instantly, he was locked under the dungeon, he had been hungry for many years, and he ate hard steamed buns every day.
When I got up and took the giant to dinner, he pounced. Knelt down in front of me.
I said, "Oh, what are you doing?" The man has gold under his knees, do you know?
I hurried over to help him, oh I'll go, this guy is so big that he can't say anything, he's almost as tall as I am standing on his knees. He was on his knees, and our eyes were almost level with each other.
"If it's not you. I don't know how many more years I'm going to be imprisoned, I remember when the King of Manye Silkworm caught me, he said that it would be of great use to keep me in the future, but I don't know what the use is, so I have been locked up until today, thank you so much. As he spoke, the giant nodded deeply at me.
I lifted him up and said, "It's nothing, it's just a matter of raising your hands, don't go to your heart." Let's go, let's eat.
I was hungry all night in the dungeon, and I was hungry enough. After finding a place to sell breakfast in the morning, it was the most surprising to me.
This giant is simply not an ordinary eater, and everyone who eats it is stunned, and they all stare at this giant.
Originally, the steamed buns of the shopkeeper were not enough, this guy even pinched three or four in one hand and stuffed them into his mouth, his cheeks bulged, and he chewed it in large gulps, and the soup was not drunk with a spoon, but directly with a bowl, one bowl at a time. One bite at a time.
The bun cage drawer next to it slowly piled higher and higher, and I turned over my wallet in distress, fortunately I had enough money on my body, otherwise it would be embarrassing.
In about five minutes, the giant drank the last night's soup, smiled and said, "Man, why don't you serve it?"
Because he drank too fast, the two guys ran almost one after the other, one after the other, to help him serve the meal, but this time, the other guy stood still in place.
"The soup is gone." The guy said embarrassedly.
The giant was stunned for a moment, and scratched his head at the moment, embarrassed. Then I had a full hiccup and didn't know what to say. My eyes are almost on the ground, and if I take him to the buffet, I won't be able to use it for a week, and I will bankrupt any cafeteria I want.
When you check out, it's not much, after all, it's a breakfast point, selling some buns, millet porridge or something, it's not expensive, it's nearly a thousand yuan, my good boy, this is really delicious.
"Brother, when I eat your food, I will help you do things, I am not the kind of ruthless and unrighteous person, when I was a child, my mother often said that you should be kind." He followed me like a bodyguard, but the problem was that the bodyguard was too conspicuous.
He was more than three heads taller than me, and when he stood in the crowd, it was like a tower.
I hummed and said, "Your mom is right."
After saying that, I scratched my head, I felt that something was wrong, why did it always feel like I was scolding? Maybe in the Celestial Empire, when many people swear words, they basically greet other people's mothers when they open their mouths. In foreign countries, most of them are verbally insulting or disdainful, such as mentally retarded.
When I was about to look for a hotel, suddenly someone on the street started handing out leaflets, and someone grabbed them, and the whole street began to fall into chaos, and I was scrambled around.
When the giant saw that my little physique was also unstable on his feet, he quickly grabbed my body, threw me on his shoulder with one hand, and said, "Sit down, brother, and I will take you away."
His shoulders are so broad! I sat on his shoulders as if I were sitting on the body of a camel, especially with his left arm protecting me, and the muscles in his shoulders bulging, and I sat even more steadily.
It wasn't until I grabbed a flyer from the chaotic crowd that it dawned on me that this was the beginning of the annual event of the Fire Worshippers. Dou He Zhen died.
Back to home!
The name of this event is very strange, and I only found out when I asked it in the lobby of the hotel when I was leaving the street, and it turned out that this kind of event has its roots in a legend, an ancient legend of the fire worshippers.
Hundreds of years ago, one of the fire-worshippers left this place to go to the outside world, and later participated in various uprisings, when his army was very likely to capture the corrupt dynasty of the time, but the army was short of food and grass, and the supply of troops was insufficient, and the final decisive battle was not launched for a long time.
He ordered people to return to the place where the Flame Worshippers lived in seclusion, recruited soldiers, and stipulated that those who were at least 14 years old at that time, under half a hundred, should go to the battlefield and fight a prosperous and peaceful dynasty, so that they could return to the outside world to live openly.
But the clansmen objected, saying that if the decisive battle failed and lost to the imperial court, the fire worship clan would usher in the disaster of extermination, which was completely contrary to the ancestors' legacy, so there were many old-timers who did not approve of conscription at that time.
In the end, there was a stalemate, so a symbolic number of hundreds of people were recruited, but the number of people was smaller, but the food and grass increased a lot, anyway, the people who lived here did not worry about food and clothing, and they also felt that it was good to do so.
But these hundreds of people are also human beings, there are also fathers and mothers, wives and children, among them is the wife of a soldier, when the army is about to march out of this paradise, looking for death and life, preventing the officer from letting her husband go to the battlefield.
This woman is very virtuous, and has a very high reputation in this place, and many old-timers in the clan also helped him speak, and then there was a stalemate, and the officer said: You look at their backs, I will only give you one chance, pick the right one, and he will stay!
Because the 100 soldiers at that time were all wearing military uniforms, and even their hairstyles could not be recognized after wearing helmets, so it can be said that from behind, the 100 soldiers were almost identical.
But the woman still found her husband from the back at a glance, and this matter has been sung for a hundred years, and has been praised by future generations, saying that the love between the two of them has long surpassed everything.
In fact, I personally think that the reason why the woman found her husband was because they were very affectionate, and after living together for a long time, the husband and wife would know each other's characteristics very well, such as what they like to eat, what posture they are used to sleeping, and it may be that the soldier made a little hint in his actions at that time.
But it's a very good story, and I was very touched when I heard it, but when I asked them about the rules of this event, I was even more in love.
It's about holding a grand event, but in fact, it's a blind date conference.
A man who is willing to go on a blind date walks up to the stage and puts on a mask. And the woman who is willing to go on a blind date also wears a mask and stands on the stage.
In the first round, the men face the wall and their backs to the women. Then the woman picks, and after choosing, she writes the number in the palm of her hand.
Then in the second round, the woman turns, and the man also turns, so that the woman has her back to the man, and then the man picks again, and after picking, he writes the numbers in the palm of his hand.
The third round is that everyone looks for each other's chosen numbers, if you have a heart, and at the same time look at the back and choose each other, you can directly take off the mask and look at each other's faces, if it is appropriate, report the wedding. If it's not suitable, continue to choose, anyway, there will be a lot of people participating every year, and men and women are basically equal.
Listening to these conditions and options, I suddenly felt that this place was simply a paradise for dicks, I'll go.
But I really admire the fire worship people who live here, their ancestors brought people here, and they can also let the people out, after all, if it is only the same clan, once the number is small, in order to avoid incest, it will affect the health of children in the future, so it is allowed to intermarry with foreigners, look at the ancestors of others, and be more enlightened.
I don't think I can marry a daughter-in-law in the future, and I can't afford to buy a car or a house.
Oh, heaven, I don't want to go.
When I was secretly lamenting that this paradise is simply heaven on earth, the giant next to me suddenly whispered to me: Abu, there is a person in the corner who has been watching you.
