Chapter 51: The City
Luo Xiaotian immediately said: "Mom, Yunjing helped me a lot at school, he just came to play with us, and he was a guest for a few days, and he was my guest." β
Luo Xiaotian's mother snorted coldly, pulled Luo Xiaotian's luggage and walked inside, without saying a word.
"Yunjing, I'm sorry, my mother's character...... Let's go in first, after such a long ride, take a good rest. Luo Xiaotian said.
Yunjing nodded.
Although the house of Luo Xiaotian's house is old, the structure is fresh, which is completely different from what Yunjing has seen in the city.
Although the Luojia Village is located in a remote location, but by the mountains and rivers, the house design is not as crowded as the city, the design is naturally more free and open, the aura enters the house and condenses in the house and does not disperse, which is very beneficial to the human body, from the perspective of Yunjing, even if the people who live here can not fly Huang Tengda, but at least there will be no major problems in the body, several generations have accumulated, as long as the aura is preserved from generation to generation, sooner or later there will be one or two people who are born with extraordinarily transparent spiritual power among the descendants.
With more spiritual power and enough luck, life will naturally become extraordinary, and there is no need to follow those crooked ways.
It's a pity that Luo Xiaotian's mother took a fork in the road, just now he appeared in front of Yunjing, Yunjing saw at a glance that the spiritual power in this person's body is less than that of ordinary people, this should be a long-term guide, in addition, because of the involvement of the underworld, Luo Xiaotian's mother also unconsciously brought a bit of yin energy, although she was not as strict as Luo Xiaotian, but her body was not too healthy, and in the long run, I am afraid it will cause relatively large damage to the body, even if there is no Yunjing to stop it, Luo Xiaotian's mother sold Luo Xiaotian like this, She didn't have a good life for a few years at all.
As he walked into the house, Yunjing said, "You don't seem to have much family?" β
Luo Xiaotian was surprised: "How do you know?" β
"I see your mother went in towards that door, there are only old people and children in the house, it's the end of the year, it's dinner time, it stands to reason that some family members should come back." Cloudview Road.
Luo Xiaotian smiled: "You mean my father and grandfather, they are gone." My grandfather suffered when he was young, and soon he was gone, and my dad was diagnosed with cancer three years ago, and in order not to drag down the family, he committed suicide by drinking pesticides, and since then my family has been left with my grandmother, my mother, and my brother and me. β
It turns out that there is only one man left, this is a patriarchal family, Luo Xiaotian's younger brother is the last hope, no wonder Luo Xiaotian's mother is demanding more and more from Luo Xiaotian, and even now she will do this kind of thing.
Yun Jing thought like this, and walked towards the door with Luo Xiaotian, but before he entered the door, Luo Xiaotian's mother walked out, stood at the door to block the entrance, and said to Yun Jing: "You are Xiao Tian's classmate, you came here to play, it stands to reason that we should treat you well, but according to the customs of our side...... In this case, it is not possible to entertain guests. Unless you are Xiao Tian's husband, everyone is their own family, and it is natural for your mother-in-law to entertain her son-in-law, but you are not.
You are just Xiao Tian's classmate, in order not to cause misunderstanding among others, this classmate, I'm sorry, our family can't provide you with food and drink. β
"Mom! How are you like that! Although Luo Xiaotian was already disappointed in her family, she didn't expect her mother to say such ugly words to her face.
If the marriage is true, the family still relies on her, and now she brings a classmate back, and she actually wants to drive people away on the spot like this, not to mention Yunjing, Luo Xiaotian can't bear it, not to mention that Yunjing is the person she invited to help, even if it is really purely to play, it is too much for my mother to do this.
Luo Xiaotian's mother saw that she was angry, and immediately looked at Luo Xiaotian and said, "Xiaotian, don't blame your mother, you brought a male classmate back like this, and you didn't even say a word in advance, have you considered our feelings?" If it's normal, forget it, this is about to celebrate the New Year, bring a man back for the night, do you know what the neighbors will think?
You're not too young, you're a girl anyway, why don't you pay more attention? I knew that I shouldn't have let you go to high school in the first place, and directly asked you to price the youngest son of the Han family, maybe the fate of both of you will change, the youngest son of the Han family will not die, you will not become like this, and our family can live a good life. β
As soon as Luo Xiaotian heard about the dead little son of the Han family, her face turned pale, she thought of the nightmares she had had for days, and the black shadow behind her, and stared at her mother and said, "Mom...... You want to marry me to Han Wenhong, don't you? β
When Luo Xiaotian's mother heard this, her face changed slightly, and she hurriedly denied it: "What nonsense are you talking about, forget it, let your classmate come in for a meal first, and let him sleep in the place where your father used to farm and sleep tonight, this male classmate, come in." β
After speaking, Luo Xiaotian's mother immediately turned around and arranged the dishes on the table.
Yunjing put his luggage aside and walked to Luo Xiaotian's side.
Luo Xiaotian tugged at the corners of her mouth and smiled reluctantly: "I'll help you arrange a room after eating later, and I won't let you sleep on the farm." β
Yunjing didn't care: "I can sleep, it's okay, let's eat first." β
When night fell, the orange lights came on, Yunjing and Luo Xiaotian sat at the wooden table, and after a while, Luo Xiaotian's old grandmother also touched the table and sat opposite.
The old man was old, his eyes were not very good, and his mind was not clear, and he sat at the table while eating, and at the same time he talked to himself, and his words were vague, and no one knew what she was talking about.
Luo Xiaotian's family seemed to be accustomed to this situation and did not talk to the old man.
After several people were seated, Luo Xiaotian's mother immediately walked to the door and shouted upstairs: "Luo Yaozu, Luo Yaozu, eat." β
Luo Xiaotian's mother shouted for nearly five minutes, and finally a little boy's voice finally came from upstairs: "What are you doing!" β
"Baby, come down and eat, Mommy has stewed your favorite soup!" Luo Xiaotian's mother said immediately.
A moment later, a little boy of eight or nine came down from the stairs in three steps and two steps.
The interior of the house was all made of wood, and the little boy did not slow down, and the whole house "clanged" without running, and when he went downstairs, the little boy put his hands in his pockets, and sat down in the best position at the dinner table like a little rascal.
Yun Jing saw that he was not very old, and he was a hooligan who was full of learning, he should have learned from the local people, and he was only eight or nine years old.
Luo Xiaotian obviously also realized her brother's virtue, she immediately said: "How did you walk like this now, you were quite normal when you came back last time, who did you learn from, you are not allowed to walk like this in the future, and the expression on your face is also retracted, it is ugly to death." β
Luo Yaozu rolled his eyes, not listening to Luo Xiaotian's words at all.
"Luo Yaozu, do you want me to come back and bring you a gift next time?" Luo Xiaotian threatened, according to past experience, this trick has always been the most clever, after all, Luo Yaozu is still young, the range of activities is limited, and the farthest place has been to the town, not to mention Baofeng City, not even Yoshida City, a lot of new things, naturally very greedy.
As a result, Luo Yaozu was not only not threatened, but was a little proud: "Why do I want you to buy it for me, now that someone has bought it for me, I am not rare for you." β
"Who bought you something?" Luo Xiaotian immediately asked.
Luo Yaozu didn't answer her, poked his head out, glanced at Yunjing, and it happened that Yunjing was also looking at him, and the eyes of the two met in the air.
Luo Yaozu suddenly retracted his head as if he had sensed something, and hurriedly put aside his gaze and did not look at Yunjing, and only after a few seconds did he turn his head to look at Luo Xiaotian: "Who is this?" β
"I'm Xiao Tian's classmate." Cloudview Road.
When Luo Yaozu heard Yunjing's voice, he involuntarily glanced at him again, and quickly looked away after less than a second, he seemed to be a little afraid of Yunjing, and after listening, he stopped talking to Yunjing and Luo Xiaotian, and turned his head to urge his mother to hurry up and feed him.
Yunjing looked at Luo Yaozu, just like he thought before, this Luo family has good feng shui, Luo Xiaotian's family has accumulated a few more generations, and sooner or later there will be a person whose spiritual power is slightly more than that of ordinary people, there is no doubt that Luo Yaozu in front of him at this moment is such a person.
Yunjing didn't release any spiritual power and spiritual power, Luo Yaozu sensed Yunjing's danger by instinct alone, and avoided its edge for the first time, this kid is only eight or nine years old, and he has to be said to be a natural person.
Luo Xiaotian's mother took out a bowl of hot chicken soup from the pot and put it in front of Luo Yaozu.
The bowl is not big, and the soup is only enough for one person to drink, and it is obvious that this is specially prepared for Luo Yaozu.
As for the people on the side, what they eat is fried bamboo shoots, green vegetables and other ordinary vegetarian dishes, the only bowl of fried meat slices, the meat slices are still some very hard chicken, it is estimated that the soup is left over to stir-fry.
The meals made with such ingredients are naturally not delicious, Luo Xiaotian watched her mother feeding her younger brother chicken soup on the side, she was sad and embarrassed, but she couldn't say anything, so she could only eat with her head down and in a muffled voice.
After eating, Luo Xiaotian knew that the family refused to take Yunjing in, so she walked to the doors of the neighbors around her and asked one by one if she could temporarily vacate a room for Yunjing to live in.
The closed small village, there is no tourism at all, and naturally there is no hotel, so I had to ask for help from the neighbors, but unfortunately the neighbors' faces changed greatly when they saw Luo Xiaotian, not to mention borrowing a room for Yunjing to live in, and they didn't even want to say a word to Luo Xiaotian.
Luo Xiaotian then remembered her current situation, she had already explained the problem when she came back by car just now, Luojia Village was superstitious and closed, and she shouldn't have any hope at all.
"Take me to where your dad slept before, maybe I'll see your dad again." Yunjing comforted.
Luo Xiaotian smiled bitterly and shook her head: "Seeing what's the use, even if he is reincarnated, he will agree with my mother's point of view, if he can really become a ghost, it's good not to bully you." Why don't you sleep in my room, I'll sleep on my dad's side, anyway, I didn't sleep when I was a child. β
"No, there are most lonely ghosts in the wilderness, you have a special constitution now, you would rather stay at home than go out for the night." Cloudview Road.
Luo Xiaotian thought of the black shadow behind her, her face turned pale, she glanced at Yunjing several times, and finally lowered her head in frustration and walked towards the farmland with Yunjing: "Actually, I also understand, I can't blame them." This is the general environment, the social atmosphere of the year is like this, China's modern history is patriarchal, has been influencing for hundreds of years, and continues to this generation.
Rural people have a closed social environment, continuing the thinking of ancient times, daughters are married out to lose money, and sons guard the family business to serve their daughters-in-law to support their parents, so men are the old people's dependence, with sons, they can speak at home, so as not to be bullied.
Over time, the importance of men naturally outweighs that of daughters, and the so-called preference for sons over daughters is not without reason, and there are a series of objective factors that lead to the formation of this idea.
With the reform and opening up, with the opening of China's borders, we have come into contact with the whole world, and a new generation of people has received a new, more advanced education, so the patriarchal thinking has been slowly diluted.
But Luojia Village is too poor and too closed, all the people who go out are unwilling to come back, the people who live here, all their lives here, there is no change in foreign thoughts, their thinking is fixed for decades, this life is like this, the people who have the ability to turn them around are unwilling to come back, and the incompetent people can only go with the flow, even if it is different at the beginning, they have to assimilate to be the same as them in the end. β
Yunjing looked at her and said, "You originally wanted to do something, right?" β
Luo Xiaotian smiled bitterly: "I live here, I can't know much about them, this kind of thinking can't be changed at all by one person's ability, but I'm very fortunate that our country is coming out of this nightmare."
I don't have the ability to let the whole village get rid of this prejudice, not to mention our Luojia Village, more than a billion people in my country, even in developed cities, there is still a situation where the preference for men is more than female.
Our time is still too short, and perhaps hundreds of years from now, our children and grandchildren will look back at us now, just as we look at the ancients today, and feel that their ignorance is so incredible.
However, that is also a matter of the future, that is the future of our children and grandchildren, and now that we live in this era, we have to face this dilemma.
Originally, I wanted to make good money, and when I bought a house in Baofeng City, I took my mother and grandmother over.
Their ideas can't be changed in a short time, so let the reality convince them, I have self-confidence, I can support my family in the future, although I don't like patriarchy, but I still love my brother, when I have time in the future, I will also pass on my thoughts to him, let him broaden his horizons, open his eyes more to see, what the world is like, the status of women in this world, should not be what it is now.
But I now find that I am still too naΓ―ve, I am not as strong as I think, and my family can't wait for me at all, not to mention that now I am involved in such a thing as a secret marriage, even if there is no such thing as this incident, when I can gain a firm foothold in Baofeng City and support the family, maybe my brother has grown up a long time ago, and the three views have already been fixed, and it is difficult to change. β
Yun Jing said: "Your brother is actually very smart, he goes to test his IQ, it should be higher than that of ordinary children." β
"I know." Luo Xiaotian said, "But his cleverness is useless in ideas, I haven't been by his side since I was a child, my grandmother, my parents' doting, and the atmosphere in the village have taken him crookedly, I would rather him be stupid, he is so smart, he learns faster, and he will be more rigid and self-serving in the future, and he can't get out......"
Yunjing sighed, not knowing what to say.
In his opinion, no one can be responsible for anyone's life, and people must always be self-reliant in order to live a better life. God has blessed Luo Yaozu with intelligence, whether he can use it or not is his own business, people always have to be responsible for their own life and behavior, even if he is still young, although the influence of the day after tomorrow is great, but the innate thinking also determines which path he lets himself take.
As he spoke, the farmland arrived.
It was a small wooden house, because it was some distance from the village, so it was not connected to the electricity, after opening the door, Yunjing took a photo with his mobile phone, and found that there was a small bed in the house, and a small box, and a kerosene lamp was placed above the box.
Although it is a little simpler, it can indeed live in people, Yunjing himself doesn't care, seeing Luo Xiaotian feeling guilty and remorseful on the side, he comforted her twice, and after sending her home, he returned to the cabin and released Morpheus and Xiaohuai.
There are no entertainment facilities in the countryside, the whole village goes to bed early and gets up early, not to mention the farmland of Yunjing, there is still some distance from the village, although it is not yet eight o'clock at the moment, but the surroundings are quiet, at this time it is the coldest time of winter, and there is not even a little insects and birds around.
After Yunjing sorted out the things, he released his spiritual power to induce the entire Luojia Village.
After cultivation, Yunjing's spiritual power can be explored to a range of three thousand meters, Luojia Village is not large, and with Yunjing's ability, the entire village can be covered.
However, spiritual power is not omnipotent after all, the original role is to assist in cultivation, and Yunjing is also using spiritual power at this moment to find out the problems in Luojia Village.
After looking at it for a moment, Yunjing slowly opened his eyes.
Although Luojia Village is backward and remote, but from the topography, the feng shui location of the whole village is very good, plus the villagers are building earth buildings, and they can also gather qi, although these spiritual qi may not be able to cultivate personal masterpieces, but it is no problem to ensure the health and longevity of the villagers here.
The aura in most people's homes is normal, but only a big house in the village has more yin qi than ordinary people.
Passing by when he entered the village during the day, Yunjing remembered that Luo Xiaotian said that the family had moved to the town, and now the houses are empty and no one lives in them, could it be because they have been empty for a long time, so that some lonely souls and wild ghosts who pass by have been stranded and the yin qi is relatively strong?
Other than that, there is not much of a problem with the whole Luojia Village
"Luo Xiaotian's mother mentioned the dead youngest son of the Han family before, and the person who married Xiao Tian may be this Han Wenhong. The reason why Luojia Village is called Luojia Village is because the whole village is composed of the Luo clan, and the rich man surnamed Han may not be from Luojia Village? "The structure of the world where Yunjing is located is different from this world, he has been living in the city since he crossed over, and it is the first time he has entered the countryside like this, and there are some things that he doesn't know very well, so he can only rely on guesswork.
Yoshida City covers a large area, but most of them are some uninhabitable deep mountains and old forests, and the distance between the villages is also relatively long, with the coverage of 3,000 meters of cloud view, the farther places outside Luojia Village cannot be explored.
Yun Jing just wanted to let Morpheus out of the horse to see if he could sense the next village, or if there was a strong yin qi in the town, but at this time, Morpheus suddenly opened his eyes and screamed at Yun Jing twice.
At the same time, Xiaohuai also sensed something, and immediately poked Yunjing with branches and leaves.
"Is there a cat in the courtyard at the head of the village?" Hearing that Morpheus and Xiaohuai had come to this conclusion together, Yun Jing thought for a moment and said, "It seems that someone is helping them cover ...... I remember Xiao Tian said that there is also a goddess in the village, who specializes in helping people see whether the fetus is male or female, and if the female fetus is aborted, the male fetus will be born.
This kind of hookup dares to do it, which shows the local atmosphere, and it is possible for someone to preside over the secret marriage and make some small moves. Let's pay attention tonight, the Chinese New Year is not suitable for a dark marriage, if they really plan to let Xiao Tian marry a dead man, they should act in the next two days. β
In the middle of the night, Yunjing vaguely felt that something was wrong in the middle of his sleep, and at this time, Morpheus and Xiaohuai pushed him together to wake him up.
Yun Jing opened his eyes suddenly, and the moment he woke up from his sleep, Yun Jing realized something, he got up suddenly, and his spiritual power was released, and he immediately sensed the yin power of the courtyard at the entrance of the village, compared to eight o'clock, it was more than five times!
"They acted!" Luo Xiaotian only came back in the evening, they acted that night, is it really so impatient!
Yunjing immediately put on his coat, grabbed the Dream Demon and Xiaohuai and walked out.
The door had just opened, and there was an old lady sitting outside the door, none other than Luo Xiaotian's grandmother.
"Can't go." Grandma Luo Xiaotian blocked the door with both hands, blocking Yunjing's way with her body.
Yun Jing didn't expect that there would be an old man blocking him, so old, he didn't sleep at night, and he actually stopped him, Yun Jing immediately said: "Grandma, why are you here, I want to go out to the toilet." β
"Don't let it out." The old lady's cloudy eyes stared at Yunjing, "Xiao Tian is married, and no one is allowed to rob her relatives." β
Yun Jing looked at the old lady's rickety body, and understood that Luo Xiaotian's mother was worried that he would have an accident here, so she sent such an old man over, which was calculated that Yun Jing would not dare to do anything to the old man.
"Grandma, Xiao Tian is also your granddaughter, you want to watch her marry a dead man? She's a living person, she's something you watched grow up with, are you really going to do that? Yunjing roared.
The old grandmother stared at Yunjing for a long time: "Yaozu wants to go to school, and the people in the village can only study in the village, not the county, but we Yaozu have to go to a good place to go to school." β
"So sacrifice your granddaughter?" Yunjing looked at her and said, "I'm sorry. β
After speaking, Yunjing directly released his spiritual power, gently brushed the old man's body to the side, and then caught the old man's body, letting her stand steadily, Yunjing turned around and walked towards the village.
"You're going to die, you're going to die...... You can't see blood when you get married, it's un......lucky," the old lady's voice echoed behind her and repeated.
Yunjing not only didn't slow down, but rushed faster.
