Chapter 10: The Rainy Festival

At the entrance of the village, the girl led the horse by herself, looked at the quiet and peaceful small village in front of her, and said involuntarily: "What a good place." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Of course, welcome to the hometown of the contemptible people, who will entertain my distinguished guests with the highest standards." Yi Mu said.

The girl said disdainfully: "Use your special cereal?" Forget it, by the way, you said that the wise man of your village, I'm going to find him. ”

"Well, this..." Yi Mu was a little embarrassed and didn't know how to answer. At this moment, the village chief saw Yi Mu at the entrance of the village, and hurriedly shouted: "Yi Mu, Yi Mu!" ”

"I'm here, village chief." Yi Mu waved at the village chief. He turned to the girl and said, "Our wise village chief." ”

The girl was stunned for a moment, and looked at an uncle with a full beard and a strange beard, as if he had been burned, trotting over.

"Forget it." The girl was disgusted, and this did not match the white-bearded and kind old grandfather and wise man she thought in her heart.

"Xiao Yi, where did you run away yesterday!" The village chief was slightly angry.

Yi Mu hurriedly explained: "Yesterday I went to the town to buy something, there are so many things in the town, I can't finish reading them, and I found that I should go back when it gets dark, but I ran into two bastards robbing ......"

"What? Robbery? Nothing happened, right? The village chief interrupted.

"It's okay, it's okay. Fortunately, I met this woman, the village chief, you don't know how powerful she is, one punch can knock a horned cow away, and a stamping foot can make the ground shake, oh oh...... "This time Yi Mu was cut off by the girl next to him.

The girl said, "It's not as good as he says, I just happen to know some boxing skills." ”

"Yes, yes, she's so good that she beat those bastards away." Yi Mu explained by rubbing his back meat. The woman saw that I was pitiful, and left me to sleep in the hotel, oh bah, I stayed in the inn, village chief, then you don't know that the bed in the hotel is comfortable, and the dishes there......"

"Stop, stop....." The village chief looked at Yi Mu, showed a pleased smile, and suddenly said: "Xiao Yi, you have grown up." ”

Yi Mu was silent for a few breaths, nodded, and couldn't help but shed a tear from the corner of his eye, and he quickly covered it up. He said to the village chief, "This is my benefactor. ”

The village chief said to the girl with honorifics: "Thank you for your help, come, today is the village's rainy festival, welcome to you." Yi Mu, you have a good reception for our distinguished guests, I have to preside over the affairs of the Rainy Festival first. By the way, you have to inform the eldest aunt and second uncle quickly, so that they don't worry too much. ”

"Understood." Yi Mu nodded and replied.

Watching the village chief leave in a hurry, the girl said coldly: "This is what you said you don't know anything?" ”

"It turns out that today is the Rainy Festival, no wonder there are no people on the road." Yi Mu muttered, "I really don't know anything, Shaoxia. Aren't you very interested in our folklore, come with me. After saying that, Yi Mu ran away. Leave the girl who hasn't reacted yet.

After returning all the things he was carrying to the bed in one go, Yi Mu shook his shoulders and left the room.

The girl stood at the door and smiled, "This is your home?" ”

"Sort of." Yi Mu said, secretly thinking in his heart: "Do people in this world also look at houses and cars?" ”

"What about your parents?" The girl asked.

Yi Mu took a breath and said slowly, "In a good place, a place away from the strife of the world. ”

The girl understood a little, nodded and said, "Let's go, take me to see your rainy festival." ”

After a while, the two came to the open space in the west of the village, and saw that almost all the men, women and children of the village were gathered in this area, and in the open space in the middle, I don't know when a three-meter-high altar was built with wood, and on the altar were placed some fruits, unknown animal meat, and many things that Yi Mu did not know. Not far from the altar, a group of experienced hunter butchers were preparing for the slaughter of a horned pig with a long nose and short fangs. There are people coming and going, busy with all kinds of things.

Yi Mu saw a man with thick eyebrows in a white linen robe walking towards him, and Yi Mu hurriedly shouted forward, "Second uncle." ”

The second uncle nodded and patted Yi Mu's shoulder and said, "It's good to come back, don't stand stupidly, go to the firewood house to bring some firewood, prepare to put out the rain map, I'll go to the bearded man to have a look." With that, he left.

Yi Mu retreated to the girl's side and said, "I have to do some work, you can take a look around first." ”

But the girl shook her head and said, "I'll help too, so that there is a reason to have a meal here." ”

Yi Mu said disdainfully: "Even a noble lady like you can work?" ”

The girl raised her slender hand and said, "Some people's memories are really average, and it seems that they need to have a long memory." ”

Yi Mu quickly explained: "No, no. You misunderstood, I want to say that this kind of rough work should be done by rough people like us with good memories, so you should have a good rest. Besides, you are a guest, how can there be a reason to let the guests work, you say? ”

The girl leaned her shoulders and said loudly: "Don't talk nonsense, take me there." ”

Yi Mu shuddered with fright, nodded and said, "Okay, you asked for it yourself." ”

After a long while, the girl wondered, "Why don't you leave?" ”

Yi Mu replied with a bitter face: "I forgot where the firewood room is." ”

Girl: "・・・・・・"

――――――――――――――――――――――

Outside a large market house a hundred meters east of the west of the village, the girl nodded and said; "This should be the place for your village's warehouse and firewood house. Or did I find it, are you from this village or me? ”

Yi Mu: "・・・・・・"

At this time, the door of the room where the firewood was stacked had been opened, and out of it came two people, one long and one young, about thirty or forty years old, with a black face and a thin height, carrying two stacks of firewood. The youngest is only four or five years old, with a cute round face and a large piece of firewood wrapped around his body.

Yi Mu recognized the father and son. Greeting: "Uncle Wu." ”

"It's Xiao Yi. You're here to carry firewood. Uncle Wu asked

"Yes." Yi Mu replied.

"I don't seem to have seen this girl, is it your friend?" Uncle Wu asked again.

"I'm here to eat." Yi Mu replied without hesitation. Feeling a murderous aura coming, Yi Mu hurriedly added: "Guest." ”

"I'm going to carry firewood first." After Yi Mu finished speaking, he slipped into the warehouse, and the girl followed closely behind.

"I'll be waiting for you outside." Uncle Wu said.

Yi Mu didn't say a word, he struggled to carry a stack of firewood, and hurriedly walked out.

When Uncle Wu saw Yi Mu coming out with firewood on his back and was about to praise his young strength, he saw the girl carrying two stacks of firewood that he was still sinking, and he couldn't help but change his words and said to the girl: "The guest is so strong, if Xiao Yi has half of you, how good it would be." ”

The girl was modest: "Actually, Yi Mu's strength is not small, you can see that the firewood he carries is almost half of mine." ”

Yi Mu felt some heat on his face, and whispered to the girl, "You use spiritual arts, Laipi." ”

The girl raised her head without explanation.

Yi Mu walked side by side with the girl speechlessly, and the child holding the wood said to his father in a milky voice: "My sister is so powerful, that brother is so useless." Yi Mu didn't want to stand with the girl anymore, "Dad is useless." ”

"Ahem, ahem." The black-faced man also blushed, but he couldn't find it when he arrived, so he had to cough a few times to hide his embarrassment.

Yi Mu felt a hint of comfort, and turned his head to see that the girl was blushing, looking like she wanted to laugh and didn't dare to laugh.

At this time, Yi Mu felt that there were some cute places about the girl, and couldn't help but take a few more looks.
