Chapter 17 Formal Selection
With the amazing performances of Qin Si and Liu Honghu, the later display has become boring, and this battle for the fate of the village without gunpowder smoke has also been declared a failure under Qin Si's complete victory.
However, Qin Si, as the winner, couldn't be happy, he had already seen Liu Honghu's miserable appearance, others didn't know him, but he recognized it, which was the manifestation of the cold invasion.
How could it be? My cold qi had obviously been suppressed by the fragments of the Imperial Seal, how could this be, how could such a powerful cold qi erupt in my body, Qin Si's heart was a little shocked, mixed with a bit of indescribable fear, this unpredictable aura really made him feel bottomless.
"The 21st Power Conference of Taiping Village, the winner is Qin Si. Yang Qingfeng had just won two thousand taels of snowflakes and silver, and he was happy to announce the champion, and his voice was full of joy.
At this time, the people of Liujia Village and Jinqiao Village in the square have all left, and only the people of Taiping Village are cheering here, and they seem to be even happier than the New Year.
This atmosphere of being a little excited and eager made Qin Si's mood also warm, he was a little surprised, such a poor village, one by one, can come up with thousands of taels of silver, with this money, isn't it good to build some infrastructure and improve the living standards of the villagers.
This poor mountain and bad water can be said to be far away from the emperor, all relying on the self-sufficiency of the village, even if there is not much trade between the neighboring villages, most of them barter, why do you leave so much money, it seems that you still care about the quantity very much.
Qin Si didn't think much about it, it was normal to be happy after winning the bet, but it seemed that he was a little too happy.
"Next, I would like to invite Yang Qingfeng, the head of Taiping Village, to personally present the award to the first place"
Yang Wanxiong shouted, the atmosphere around him became even more enthusiastic, the villagers jumped up and applauded, and Yang Qingfeng also cleared his throat and walked over with vigorous steps, followed by a young girl.
This is what Village Chief Yang learned after going to Qingcheng County to see the world, before the awards were presented to Yang Qingfeng directly with a silver ingot and thrown to the first place, but now it is different, Yang Qingfeng strode in front, the most beautiful girl in the village, the first etiquette Miss Tian Er's sister-in-law walked behind, the five big and three thick figures twisted and twisted, kept shaking their buttocks from side to side, and from time to time threw a wink at the surrounding villagers, which made Qin Si goosebumps for a while.
It's not that Yang Qingfeng has a problem with aesthetics, it's really because the little girls of school age in Taiping Village are either already married or still young, only Tian's second sister-in-law volunteered to take over this job, and within a few days, she practiced with her little feet and cat steps, and Yang Qingfeng could only accept her fate.
"This is the Taiping Golden Bowl that only the first place can have" Yang Qingfeng waved his hand, and Tian's second sister-in-law took the gilded bowl with two rough little hands and turned around in front of everyone before handing it over to Qin Si.
By the way, he wanted to give Qin Si a hug, and wanted to kiss Qin Si, so frightened that Qin Si hurriedly dodged, everyone laughed, and Tian's second sister-in-law rolled her eyes at Qin Si a little unhappily, hum, this little kid who doesn't understand the amorous style will definitely be like Wang Cripple in the future, and he will be a bachelor for the rest of his life.
"And a reward of silver, a hundred taels"
Tian Er's sister-in-law used a tray to drag ten ingots of snowflake silver, and covered it with a red cloth, which was solemnly sent to Qin Si's hands.
Qin Si looked at the silver in his hand and smiled slightly, this was just the right thing to solve his urgent need. A hundred taels of silver, if you save a little flower, it is enough for an ordinary family in the village to live for decades, and for most people in the village, it is an unattainable wealth.
"Xiao Wu, then"
Qin Si handed the gilded bowl to Qin Wu's hand, Qin Wu instantly smiled, and in the envious eyes of all the children, he proudly hugged the little golden bowl in his arms, as if he was afraid that others would snatch it.
"Okay, I announce that this power conference has been successfully concluded."
"Wait, village chief, I still have one more thing I want to discuss at the meeting" Yang Wanshan suddenly stood up and stopped the end of the meeting.
"Oh, Wanshan, you say" Yang Qingfeng's attitude towards Yang Wanshan was unusually kind, and even his attitude towards Yang Wanxiong, Yang Wanwen and others was extremely special, without the slightest concept of superiors and subordinates, but there was a kind of pity and respect, only he knew how much these people had paid for this remote village.
"I'm proposing a new member to the hunting party"
"Oh, who is it?"
The hunting party is extremely dangerous, and it is the most powerful force in Taiping Village, and every change of personnel is a great event for a small village, which is a kind of recognition and honor.
"I nominate the champion of this power conference-Qin Si" Yang Wanshan's tone was unusually firm, without the slightest intention of joking.
"What? Qin Si"
"Qin Si, you're too young, aren't you?"
"He's only ten years old, isn't that appropriate?"
"That's right, our hunting team has never allowed this kind of child to participate, even the village chief joined the hunting team at the age of seventeen. ”
All the villagers immediately talked about it, and felt that it was really inappropriate to let such a young child join the hunting team.
"This...."Yang Qingfeng also frowned slightly, a little hesitant, not knowing how to reply, a ten-year-old child joined such a dangerous hunting team, which was something that had never happened since the establishment of Taiping Village.
"Zhao Liangcai seconded" The bearded Zhao Liangcai suddenly spoke, strongly supporting the matter.
"Yang Wanxiong seconded"
"Yang Wanwen seconded"
"Yang Wanwu seconded"
"Seconded"
Several people from the hunting team spoke one after another, and Yang Qingfeng suddenly laughed loudly, "Hahahaha, sure enough, it's my Lao Tzu, a hero from ancient times, good, very good, but I have to ask the four boys if they agree." ”
"Qin Si, when you joined the hunting team, you were looking for a piece of meat for your sister to eat, and now you have one hundred taels of silver, which is enough to worry about food and clothing, let me ask you, are you willing to join the hunting team. Yang Wanshan looked at Qin Si and asked very solemnly.
"I do" Qin Si's expression also suddenly became serious, and the light of noon shone on his face, emitting a divine light.
"Good boy, Lao Tzu really didn't misunderstand you" Zhao Liangcai slapped his thigh and laughed.
"Okay, I announce that Qin Si has officially joined the hunting team and become the eighth guardian of my Taiping Village. Yang Qingfeng announced loudly, and instantly the audience erupted in thunderous applause.
"Good, good"
"Good"
A faint smile slid across the corners of Qin Si's mouth, enjoying this rare happy time, he suddenly had a sense of home and a faint sense of belonging.
Qin Si took Qin Wu from Nian Bo's back, held it in his arms, and slowly walked home, he felt for the first time that today's sunshine was so warm, and the earth under his feet was so kind.
"Four boys, don't forget to get up early tomorrow, let's go hunting together" Zhao Liangcai shouted, laughing loudly.
"I know, as soon as I enter the mountain in three days, I will already remember it" Qin Si waved his hand and grinned.
Nian Bo looked at Qin Si's smile, and there was a burst of warmth in his heart for no reason, this young man's heart was too bitter, the pressure was too great, and now, has it finally slowed down a little, Taiping Village, this mysterious land, he really came to the right place.
The days passed like this, and Qin Si followed the hunting team into the mountains to fight every day in addition to cultivation, and his strength continued to advance by leaps and bounds, one day after three months.
"Uncle Wanshan, don't you go hunting in the mountains today" Qin Si went out and looked at Yang Wanshan and the others in civilian clothes with some astonishment.
"What kind of hunting, hunting every day, today the uncles will take you to the city to play" Zhao Liangcai grinned and said first.
"Play a ghost, just go and sell animal skins, Xiaosi, your family should have accumulated a lot of animal skins, let's sell them together for money, let me tell you, Qingcheng County is not as good as the towns near us, it is a real big city, and there are many good things......" Yang Wanwen chattered endlessly.
Qin Si jumped, flew into the fence wall, and within a few minutes, he carried out several huge packages.
"Brother, come back and bring me candy."
Qin Wu rubbed his sleepy eyes, muttered in his mouth, and waved his little hand at Qin Si.
"Don't worry, wait for my brother to come back and bring you a lot of delicious food. ”
Qin Si didn't know much about the price of animal skins, so in order to prevent it from being enough, he specially brought twenty taels of silver.
"Let's go, Qingcheng County is a little far, not faster, the sun will go down when you come back" Yang Wanshan waved his hand, a group of people all carried large packages, striding towards the distance, the weakest of this group of people is Qin Si, but it has also reached the point of the middle level of martial arts, plus good at speed, the whole team is extremely fast.
In a short time, the hunting party had arrived at the nearest town, which was the size of four or five Taiping villages, and was the most prosperous trading center in the vicinity.
Yang Wanshan walked to a huge carriage with great ease and greeted the coachman.
"Uncle Yan"
"Ah, it's Wanshan, are you going to Qingcheng County to sell animal skins again, you guys are really good at it?"
"The rough people in the countryside have only a handful of strength left, and they have to trouble Uncle Yan today"
"Okay, no problem, Simba, let's go" Uncle Yan touched his beloved horse and fed a blue-green ball as a reward, whether it was good or not Qin Si didn't know, anyway, he just felt that this Gundam horse was a lot happier in an instant.
This time it was to sell things, and there were not many people coming, only Yang Wanshan, Zhao Liangcai, Yang Wanwen and Qin Sisi, after all, one more person would cost one more money.
In this way, the four people are also spacious, and Uncle Yan waved a small leather whip, and the tall horse instantly spread its limbs and ran towards the city in the distance.
This horse didn't know what breed it was, not only was it big, but it was also extremely fast, Qin Si only felt that the scenery around him was rapidly retreating, and he squinted his eyes and looked at the city that was not visible at all in the distance.
Qingcheng County, I'm here.
