Chapter 158: The Love of the Hawthorn Tree (1)
"Uncle Gensheng, come and put it on Brother Tian."
"Okay."
It is estimated that Uncle Gen Sheng and the others have already prepared, and they immediately put a green dragon mask on Liu Haotian's face, and there is even a little girl who tied a ribbon on him. It's the green dragon again...... At the beginning, when he was in the Divine Blade, Liu Haotian was the instructor of these blade warriors, and he was wearing the Blue Dragon Mask. I didn't expect that here, I was also wearing a green dragon mask. Could it be said that in the underworld, a qiē has long been determined?
Looking at Xu Chang again, she was wearing the mask of a very ugly, ugly woman, with yellow ribbons tied around her waist, and she looked good when she writhed. I don't know why, looking at her like this, Liu Haotian's heart suddenly faintly rose a hint of ominous feeling. No, it certainly won't happen.
Liu Haotian smiled, and together with Zhu Jingyuan and others, he writhed to his heart's content.
From the entrance of the village, walk further into the village. It wasn't until I reached the gate of the ancient temple that I stopped. There is a small clearing here, and there is a large plane tree next to it. I don't know how many years of history it has, and it is estimated that two people may not be able to hug each other. The ancient temple is two storeys high and has steps to climb up. Next to it, there is also a military platform, which is estimated to be here during the military parade that year.
Knock knock! The gongs and drums beat a few more times, and finally stopped.
Uncle Gensheng said loudly: "Welcome Brother Tian to our backing mountain." ”
These people all took off their masks, and Liu Haotian also took them off, and said with a smile: "Uncle Gensheng, do you know what I want to say the most now?" ”
"What is it?"
"It's too late!"
Liu Haotian said with a smile: "Such a good place, you should really come early." Chang'er, it's all your fault, don't tell me. ”
Xu Chang chuckled: "Why do you blame me, it's you who are too busy." ”
"Lao Zhu, are you back?"
Suddenly, there was a loud shout. Not far away, a tall old man walked over, probably because of his age, and he was also a little hunchbacked. On his shoulder, he carried a steel fork. On the steel fork, he also carried two hares and pheasants, walking vigorously and in good spirits.
Beside the old man was a dark-skinned, very thin young man, who looked like he was 1.7 meters, but his arms were thick and powerful, he carried a double-barreled shotgun behind his back, a hunting knife in his waist, and a wild boar on his shoulder. Looking at this posture, it is estimated that there are about 300 catties.
Zhu Jingyuan was stunned for a moment, and said excitedly: "Huh? Old Forest. ”
He snatched it up in a few steps, and clasped the old man's hand tightly. This old man's name is Lin Zejiang, he grew up with Zhu Jingyuan and Lao Xu Tou, and he often went up to the mountains to hunt and fish in the river together. But now, Lao Xu Tou has passed away, and Zhu Jingyuan has not returned to the village for more than ten years.
The hands of the two men were tightly clasped together.
Lin Zejiang said loudly: "Let's go, let's stew rabbit meat at night." ”
Zhu Jingyuan smiled: "Okay, okay, but ...... Shall we do it tomorrow? I promised Xu Chang to go to her house to eat glutinous rice cakes at night. ”
"So? Go to my house that night and let's have a drink. ”
"Okay."
Lin Zejiang waved his hand at the thin young man, and said with a smile: "Qing Ge, come and meet your Uncle Zhu." ”
Lin Qingge's hands, still carrying the wild boar, said loudly: "Uncle Zhu." ”
"Lao Lin, is this your son?"
"Yes."
"This kid is really good."
Zhu Jingyuan pinched Lin Qingge's arm and said with emotion: "At the beginning, he was still dripping with snot, so he followed us into the mountain." Now, certainly a good hunter. ”
What a good hunter! In a radius of ten miles and eight villages, if Lin Qingge said first, no one would dare to say second. Old Man Lin grinned, this son made him very satisfied. At that moment, he and Lin Qingge carried the wild boar and went home. Liu Haotian and Zhu Jingyuan said hello to Uncle Gensheng and asked the villagers to go home first and have a meeting tomorrow. Now, they have to go to Xu Chang's house for dinner.
Uncle Gen Sheng and the others were very happy, so they naturally agreed.
The crowd dispersed, and Liu Haotian and Zhu Jingyuan followed Xu Chang to Xu's house. In the whole backing mountain, every family is the kind of courtyard with blue bricks and blue tiles, even if the family is poor. Because this is left by our ancestors, almost every family has a history of 100 years.
Some of the bricks already have moss. Under the baptism of the years, it is even more with traces.
Smack! I knocked on the door twice, and the door opened. Standing at the door was a middle-aged woman, her forehead and the corners of her eyes were already wrinkled, and her temples had a little gray hair. Her body is a little thin, but in the vague way, she can still see that Xu Chang is a little similar to her.
It seems that she is Xu Chang's mother?
Liu Haotian smiled and said, "Auntie, I'm bothering you." ”
"Don't bother, don't bother."
"Mom......"
Xu Chang's tears flowed down and pounced.
Mother Xu gently patted her back, tears welling up in her eyes. It took a while to calm down. Uncle Gensheng and a few old people from the village also came over, carrying home-brewed rice wine. Lin Zejiang and Lin Qingge also came over and sent two rabbits. Soon, all of them were gathered in the courtyard.
Xu Lang and Xu Erduo don't know where to go to play.
The grounds are spacious and clean. There are some vegetables grown in the garden, and there is a water cellar next to it. The table was placed in the courtyard, and a few more women came over, wearing aprons, to help Xu's mother cook. Liu Haotian and Uncle Gen Sheng, Zhu Jingyuan, Lin Zejiang, and some respected old people sat together, and everyone laughed. At this moment, Liu Haotian knew that Lin Zejiang was still the village chief of Shantun.
As he spoke, the faces of Uncle Gen Sheng and the others were full of gloom.
It's really good to look at the backer, but it's too remote here, and it takes two hours to walk the mountain road to reach Liubao Town. The dealer here is completely dependent on the sky to eat. Catch up with the age of the wind and rain, and get by. If this catches up with drought and flood or something, it will be over, and it is very likely that there will be no harvest.
If nothing else, let's just say it's this year, and the harvest is very bad. The villagers relied on some game, herbs, etc., in exchange for some living expenses. People like Lin Zejiang and Lin Qingge, naturally there is nothing to say. Both of them are good hunters, and if they go into the mountains for a walk, they can catch some game and come back. But most people can't do it, they can't hunt, they can't pick herbs, and their lives are getting poorer and poorer.
Uncle Gensheng sighed: "Alas, we really don't have any tricks now. Brother Tian, can you help us think of ideas when you come over this time? ”
Liu Haotian pondered for a moment and asked, "I saw that we are full of hawthorns all over the mountains here, why didn't you think about picking hawthorns to sell?" ”
