Chapter 423: Wangjia Village
"Miss, there's a village in front, do you want to rest for the night before you go on the road?" Lianhui asked, pointing to the faint smoke in the distance. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The village is not far from the official road, and you can see the houses in the village on the official road. As long as you look good, you can see that there should not be poverty, and the houses are very neatly built.
It is surrounded by a circle of farmland, but the crops in the fields have long since been recovered. All that's left is some roots, and neatly stacked straw.
It was getting dark, and there were rare lights coming from inside the village, but when you walked in, you would find that it was not a light, but a fire burning in the stove house.
"Let's go." Yuanshan Jiadao.
After riding a horse for a whole day, although everyone knows martial arts, after all, it is not iron, and the body is also a little uncomfortable.
Especially Yuan Shanjia, his martial arts are the weakest among everyone, and the skin on his body is tender, even though he is padded with a cushion, his inner thighs are still worn out, and when he is riding a horse, he feels a burst of pain.
Before entering the village, many older farmers with hoes and shovels blocked the village avenue.
Yuan Shanjia pulled his horse and stopped, "Uncles and aunts, we are going to Changzhi County, we have been on the road for a day, and we have only seen one of your villages nearby, I wonder if we can use it for a night?" ”
The farmer with the farm implements did not speak, but made a way.
An old man dressed in coarse cloth came out from behind the crowd, "Where are you from?" We don't stay with outsiders. ”
"We came from Yundu and went to Changzhi County, and we heard that the army from the eastern country was coming, and we wanted to see if we could help." Yuan Shanjia said with a smile.
Originally, I thought that after saying this, these people might relax a little, after all, those who went to help protect the Yun Kingdom, as long as they didn't want to be slaves of the country, they wouldn't have much malice.
But Yuan Shanjia was wrong, as soon as she finished saying this, a roar erupted in the crowd, "Village Chief! Don't let them in! We don't let them live! Let them get out of here! ”
Yuan Shanjia looked at the person who spoke, the man had red eyes, a leg missing, and his hands were supporting crutches, and a middle-aged woman next to him was also staring at Yuan Shanjia and his party tightly.
Chu Rui glanced at the man coldly, but Yuan Shanjia didn't speak, so he didn't make a move.
"Yes! Let them go! Can't let them in! ”
"Can't let them in!"
For a while, the crowd was excited, and it seemed that something had exploded in the crowd.
The horse under Yuan Shanjia was startled by the crowd rushing over, and turned his head back in a huff.
She took control of the horse's reins and took a few steps back, "Uncle, we have no ill intentions, we are just going to borrow it for one night." ”
The old man glanced at the few people behind Yuan Shanjia, was silent for a moment, and shook his head, "I'm sorry, our village can't let you in." ”
It seemed that seeing that Yuan Shanjia was relatively young, he couldn't bear it, so he sighed and said, "It's not that we don't want you to come in." It's that you soldiers are too much. ”
Yuan Shanjia frowned, "What does this mean?" ”
What did the soldiers do to make these people so guarded?
"A group of soldiers came before, and they ......"
"Village chief, what are you talking to these people about?" An old man walked out, this man was very respectable, and the farmer next to him got out of the way.
"Patriarch. I don't think these people are bad people, we must always make it clear, lest people think that our Wangjia Village is cold-blooded people. The village elder Han sighed, and he was also very respectful of the people who came out.
The patriarch frowned, and there was an aura of majesty on his body, "Good! In that case, make it clear to them that they may leave early. ”
It turned out that more than ten days ago, some soldiers went to Changzhi County with newly recruited soldiers to prepare for support. When I passed by Wangjia Village on the way, I rested in Wangjia Village.
The villagers of Wangjia Village still respect the soldiers. Especially when the war came. The safety of Yunguo depends on these people.
Therefore, the village chief organized the villagers to eat and drink well, and even some young and enthusiastic children were eager to try and sign up for the army.
But he did not expect that in the evening, one of the leading soldiers insulted the daughter of the person he was staying with, the girl was fifteen years old, who had just been married to another family, and was about to marry at the age of sixteen, but she did not want to suffer such bad news.
The man of the house had his leg cut off by the soldier, and if the villagers hadn't arrived in time, he might have been killed.
Because of this, many young people are reluctant to join the army. But how could the leader agree? One more person means one more cannon fodder, and one more chance to live.
He not only wanted to take away the people who had signed up before, but also took away all the young and middle-aged people in the village. If it weren't for the fact that he hated the old people for slowing them down, he would even have brought everyone with him.
The villagers want to resist, but where can they be the enemy with this kind of special training? Five or six people were killed in a few strokes. The man said that if he resisted again, he would simply kill the whole village, so as not to waste food, and he would need them to protect him.
And the man said before leaving, "I am a soldier under General Yuan, if you are tired of living, continue to come, and see if I kill you all, can anyone help me?" If you want revenge, come to me! Ha ha! My name is Qin Wenyong! ”
……
After hearing this, Yuan Shanjia felt a wave of anger in his heart. This man dared to report his father's name!
"I'm sorry." Yuan Shanjia said softly, with a sad face.
The village elder was stunned for a moment, the corners of his eyes turned red, and then he waved his hand, "It's not your business, what are you doing apologizing?" ”
Yuan Shanjia shook his head and did not explain.
If that person dares to say such a thing, he must really be someone under his father, or he has done it under his father. It's just that it's not a big person, or even someone else's spy, who deliberately undermines Daddy's reputation.
She turned her head to Chu Rui and the others and said, "Let's leave, just find a place to rest at will." ”
Uncle Yun frowned, "Childe, the weather is starting to get colder this time, and it will be even colder at night. Not suitable for refurbishment outside. ”
Yuan Shanjia shook his head, "Didn't you bring a lid?" Afraid of what? ”
In the end, the old village chief seemed to see that Yuan Shanjia and the others were indeed not bad people, but he did not dare to let Yuan Shanjia enter the village, so he guided them to the nearby thatched hut, where the villagers lived during the autumn harvest when the villagers were guarding the fields. It's simple, but it's good to shelter from the cold.
Following. At the beginning of the sun, Yuan Shanjia rose.
The mist in the mountains is still lingering, wandering around.
"Let's go." Yuanshan Jiadao.
When I arrived at the official road, I walked less than a mile when I saw an old horse lying on the ground, and a small figure curled up beside the old horse, as if it was leaning on the horse's mane to keep warm.
But the old horse's mouth was crooked, his eyes turned white, he was dead, and his body was already a little stiff.
(One more.) The sun is out again today, so happy~lalala~) (to be continued.) )
