Chapter 112: The Devil's Flower

Baylor Village has undergone earth-shaking changes in recent decades, with families replacing small villas, asphalt brick streets, and various luxury cars, bidding farewell to the old society and entering the new era.

But what has been completely preserved according to the ancient style coefficient is this ritual of worshipping the sky, as well as the temple fair celebration on the night before. On this day, the village is overcrowded, and all the wanderers who are studying outside must also take leave to go home to participate in the celebrations, even children from abroad must return home early, otherwise the family tree will be expelled.

The old people will burn incense and bathe in accordance with the ancient method, change into treasured Qing Dynasty costumes, and the old men will all wear wigs with ponytails, making you think that you have traveled back to the Qing Dynasty.

And on the square of Baylor Village, all kinds of handicrafts, snacks, and game stalls are connected into a piece, whether it is eating, drinking, playing, or selling, it is free of money. These things are taken out by every household to share with the neighbors, and the picture is a lively and festive, and many families have spent half a year stocking up.

For example, a fired snuff bottle and a small porcelain bottle painted by handicraft are thousands of unique treasures outside, but here, children like it, and it doesn't matter if you send two.

On this day, the way everyone uses to pay is the smile on the face, as well as the love of gifts, what to guess the lantern riddles, catch goldfish, and pinch the dough, which always makes the children very happy. And the beautiful brocade costumes made by the ancient method of zuò are so that young girls are tired of it.

How can people not love such a day and such a land? Where is the hatred that does not come from?

The courteous crowd around Shen Ming always nodded and smiled politely, feeling that the construction of spiritual civilization here far surpassed that of Europe and the United States. Unfortunately, he couldn't get into the relaxed festive atmosphere at all, walking along the wall with an X slingshot in his sleeve and a silver steel ball between his fingers in his purse.

His piercing eyes scanned everyone on the street, looking for suspicious targets. But the number of people exceeded his imagination, and the 500 households in Baylor Village, which he promised, were forced to fill the streets with 4,000 people!

Baylor Village is considered an ethnic minority, plus the family relies on capitation dividends, after marriage, they are basically born into a special child, and some housewives even have another one when they are 40 years old, and it is normal for a family to drag a family with a dozen people.

In addition, the medical level of Baylor Village is close to the international first-class level, and the doctors of many departments go out to the province to be famous doctors who can sell thousands of yuan for experts, but here they treat the children all day long for colds and treat the old uncle's cold legs. And even if you are terminally ill, you will be sent to a sanatorium in Belle Village to enjoy free 24-hour recuperation until you die.

In such a good environment, who is not desperate to give birth to a baby except for the incompetence of life? As soon as the temple fair celebration in Beile Village was opened, it was overcrowded.

This also invisibly increased the difficulty of Shen Ming's battle, not to mention it was difficult to find mountain ghosts in this environment, and it was even more difficult to shoot after discovering them.

Just as Shen Ming was gradually approaching the night market in the square with the largest crowd, on the telephone in a phone booth next to him, an Apple 6 with a Bluetooth headset suddenly rang urgently.

A rich village is good, it can be said that the road is not left behind, try it in a big city, let alone put a phone booth, even if you cover it in your pocket, you can touch it away.

Looking at the phone, Shen Ming did not step forward, but let his body completely hide in the darkness of the street corner.

Until the ringing was interrupted, and when I remembered it for the second time, a child who stood on tiptoe and couldn't reach the phone, held the poppon candy in one hand and held the little Mazha in the other hand came to the telephone, stepped on Mazha to take off the mobile phone and Bluetooth headset, and turned around and walked in front of Shen Ming.

"Uncle! You're so lazy that you won't even take your phone yourself. "The little ghost is a serious education.

"Thank you, little friend, it's not that my uncle is lazy, it's that my uncle is playing hide and seek with his friends, and I can't be caught lightly." Shen Ming smiled and touched the hair of the little ghost.

"Is it a girlfriend?" The little ghost licked the pomp candy road.

"Not ......"

"That must be a good friend, right?"

"How did you learn that word?"

"On the Internet, my uncle is not embarrassed, I am embarrassed to say hello to people without good friends in this world, and the little dog next to me always touches my legs."

"Hehe, children cherish life and stay away from the computer." Shen Ming wordlessly checked the positioning program of the mobile phone, and only after all of them were turned off did he connect the phone.

"It took me so long to answer the phone, and I found a child to help you get it, are you so afraid of death?" Yaozu's words were full of provocation.

"You must be the most talkative sniper in the world, do you use your tongue to pull the trigger?" Shen Ming sneered at each other.

"I'll admit you're awesome, I always thought I was one of the best snipers in the world before I met you, whether it was my teammates or my enemies.

But you've completely refreshed my understanding of sniping, how did you get to that kind of sniping? Although I can also predict the trajectory of the enemy, the shot you shot at me, you didn't even see my early movements! Yaozu asked purely instinctively.

"Want to learn? Shout Dad, kowtow 3 times, I'll teach you! Shen Ming played with the taste, "By the way, forget jì, you are the kind of evil animal that even Lao Tzu has to kill, and it is very bad to be your father." ”

"You don't understand my grudge against him, and you don't know what he's done, so shut up." The method of agitating the general is a kind of tactic, but Yaozu is obviously not as hot as Shen Ming, "Now you only have two choices, either kill me or be killed by me." ”

"There are never only 2 choices in life, even I can be reborn. It's too late to turn back now. Shen Ming sighed and persuaded.

"Unfortunately, there is no way back for me. I still don't know your name after playing for so long, is it convenient to reveal it? Yaozu's voice was full of sadness, and the sound of gongs and drums of the temple fair came from the background.

"Shen Ming." As Shen Ming spoke, he walked along the entrance of the night market and into the street with the most dense crowds at the temple fair.

"Life? Good name, my name is Yaozu, the old man probably wants me to revive the glory of Aixinjue Luo, right? Unfortunately, he was going to be disappointed. Yaozu chuckled.

"Do you want to talk to me all the way to death?" Shen Ming didn't like this way of speaking.

"Don't be so cold, it's a friend of life and death, I haven't been back to Baylor Village for a long time, and it's really a big change." Yaozu seemed to be squeezing his chest at this moment, and there was nowhere to confide, "Do you like this place? Full of hypocritical amiability, floating on the land of pedantic, selfishness, and greed. ”

"I haven't been here for a long time, and I'm always blocked in the prince's mansion by you, so I don't have the opportunity to feel the warmth and coldness of the people here." Shen Ming was also carefully looking for the trace of this Yaozu when he spoke, and the slingshot in his sleeve had naturally fallen and held it in his hand.

"I'm sorry, it's my fault, I should give you a chance to feel the characteristics of Baylor Village, and since I have time, I'll explain it to you." Yaozu is tired of this, "If you pay close attention, the color of each house here is different, divided into gold, silver, and iron green, gold is the 'noble', all of them are the children of the Eight Banners who followed my ancestors to this place in the past, and they are treated the best in the village, their children are in the front row of study, and the dividends are the most; Untouchables', when the ancestors founded Baylor Village, they brought a lot of gold, silver and jewelry, and these things need to be picked up, right? And then building a village is also a big construction, and people need to work like slaves, right?

Those who do the hardest and most tiring work, and then do not die, are the ancestors of the untouchables.

In the village of Baylor, untouchables are required to bow 90 degrees to the nobles and 45 degrees to the commoners, and if someone is found to be informably rude, they will be slapped with rattan in the palm of their hand according to the village rules.

In the village you can pull a random untouchable child and see who hasn't been whipped. ”

"I'm not a member of the Human Rights Association, and there are more places in the world where people are born unequal, and the caste system of the three countries is written into the constitution, so what?" Shen Ming had no sympathy.

"That's right, but the most rebellious rule in Baylor Village is that the whole village is not allowed to marry people outside the village, not to mention, the internal aristocracy can be matched with commoners at most, and commoners can be matched with untouchables at most, but nobles are absolutely not allowed to marry untouchables."

"Let me guess, Wenjing should be a pariah's child, right?" Shen Ming said the name that haunted Yaozu's dreams.

"You actually know Wenjing...... The old man seems to have told you a lot of stories about me......" Yaozu trembled slightly, "I guess, he must not have told you that when I left Baylor Village at the age of eighteen, Wenjing already had my flesh and blood. ”

"If it's enough blood, can you get a little more blood?" Shen Ming's heart is like a rock.

"We have made a private decision for life, and after the college entrance examination, we will leave this hypocritical place together and live the life of ordinary people, even if we are not the village chief, even if we are poor all our lives.

But Wenjing couldn't let go of her elderly parents, her parents only had her daughter, and her father was seriously ill and needed to be taken care of at that time. She promised me that within 3 months, when her father was admitted to the sanatorium in Baylor village, she would come out to me. But three months later, I completely lost her news.

And on the day of my 18th birthday...... The old man told me a family secret, and that was ...... There is no terminal illness sanatorium in Baylor Village at all, there is just a hell on earth called 'Secret Land'! ”

"With such a nice name, even hell won't be bad, right?" Shen Ming is not integrated into the story at all.

"Look around you, don't you see anything wrong?" Yaozu sneered.

Shen Ming never kept paying attention to his surroundings, but he paid more attention to people, and when he expanded the search scope to items, he immediately found the "no" in Yaozu's mouth, because whether it was the decorations of the storefront stalls or the top of the girls' heads, they were full of red flowers.

This kind of flower, the petals are as big as leaves, the leaves are red like blood, with a strange floral fragrance, not like the mountains and forests that can be seen everywhere. Shen Ming widened his pupils and muttered to himself, "Poppies? ”

"That's right, it's the devil's flower, and it's not a harmless ornamental poppy, it's the flower of a real poppy fruit. Do you think that the wealth of Baylor Village really comes from antiques, calligraphy and paintings? Don't be kidding, the outflow of those antiques is very limited, and selling the belongings of the ancestors is regarded as a sin, how to face the ancestors and ancestors when they die?

But selling drugs has become an understandable way to make money, how interesting is Baylor Village? Yaozu sneered.
