One hundred and sixty-eight
"Oh my God, how can that work? All the houses in my town are booked! In two months, my daughter-in-law will be coming in! β
"Miss Xia, you can't take this money back! This money is our life-saving money! β
"Yes, Miss Xia, we have also heard about the situation in the valley, and if you can help the villagers, we are absolutely duty-bound!"
Song Fengyue shook her head, "No need, I've already decided." I don't want this place anymore. Thousand Medicine Valley, it seems that I don't have this blessing to suffer! β
The villagers still wanted to persuade again, but Yao Lao heard the wind and hurried over.
"Quiet and quiet!" Yao Lao was on crutches and had a shoe on his foot, and it seemed that Shishi had just received the news and came over. And this time, except for Xia Shangshang and the three of them, no one else knew about it. Even Shangguan Yu and Lin Ying'er didn't tell him.
"Third Master, I don't know why you want to return the Thousand Medicine Valley?" The voice of the old man sounded, and Xia Shangshang suddenly felt a little unbearable. Although it's acting, it's an old man at such an age.
Song Fengyue was ruthless and snorted coldly, "Village chief, why do you know why I also know." We don't need to say more. β
"Third Master, the matter has not been clarified yet, if you give me some time, I will definitely be able to restore the Thousand Medicine Valley to its former state!" Yao Lao is in a hurry, the silver sold by Qianyao Gu has been properly distributed to each family, and now he has to return it, how can he get it back?
"No need! I don't want to do it! Song Fengyue stiffened her neck and was very resolute.
Yao Lao seemed to be ten years old in an instant, and with a hoarse voice, he turned to Xia Shangshang and asked, "Xia girl, do you think the same way?" β
Xia Shangshang's eyes flashed a trace of unbearability, but in the end, he could only say weakly, "I'm sorry." β
"Okay... Well... It seems that it is my Thousand Medicine Valley, and I don't have this blessing..." The old medicine was depressed, and he didn't do much to stay, and went back with the hand of the big cow.
Xia Shangshang and the three of them glanced at each other, and they all felt a little uncomfortable in each other's hearts. If the murderer can't be caught for a long time, then how can we explain today's farce?
The three of them were gambling.
Some of the villagers who did not disperse around them still stepped forward to say something, but Song Fengyue and Song Liguang decisively interrupted them. The two of them have more important things to do tonight.
The moon is bright and the stars are scarce.
"Fourth brother, where are we going to the herb field?" Song Fengyue and Song Liguang shuttled through the darkness, like two ghosts.
Song Liguang is athletic, Rao is so close to Song Fengyue, and he must pay careful attention to Song Fengyue's figure in order not to be left behind. "Let's go and guard the piece of land you found during the day today. If all the paraquat potions are cleaned in a day, the herbs can be brought back to life. β
Song Liguang whispered, Song Fengyue nodded, and followed Song Liguang's example, flying carefully with her body close to the ground.
If someone passes by at this time, it is estimated that it will only feel that a gust of wind is blowing, rather than someone passing by.
Song Fengyue and Song Liguang were lying tightly in a dense jungle, and in front of them on the left was the medicinal herb field that Song Fengyue found during the day today.
The figures of the two were completely hidden in the bushes, and they couldn't be seen at all.
Song Fengyue held her breath and stared, her expression was very nervous, and her two eyes stared at the herb field in front of her motionlessly, not daring to relax at all.
"Third brother, you better rest first, it's still early, I estimate that the entire Thousand Medicine Village will be inevitable tonight, if the thief wants to come out, it will be a while." Song Liguang kindly suggested.
Song Fengyue looked very nervous, "You keep quiet, it's better not to speak." β
"Well, third brother, you really don't have to be nervous. If anyone is coming, I can sense it within a radius of 100 meters. Oh remind you when the time comes. Song Liguang reminded.
"Well, why don't you say it soonerΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·" Song Fengyue also relaxed at this time, squatted on the ground, and from time to time took out the gourd on his waist and drank two sips of wine.
"Third brother, you're too laid-back. I can see if there's anyone around, but you're so good at enjoying it! Song Liguang felt that he was shooting himself in the foot.
Song Fengyue smiled "hehe", "I have a younger brother who doesn't call, am I a fool-"
"Don't talk!" Song Liguang's face changed abruptly, and he said in a deep voice.
Song Fengyue was clever, and hurriedly plugged the gourd, holding her breath and concentrating.
Sure enough, before half a cup of tea was done, a sturdy figure walked sneakily towards the medicinal herb field, still holding the purified water in his hand.
Song Fengyue was about to rush out, but was stopped by Song Liguang.
Whispered, "Let him splash." β
Song Fengyue nodded and continued to watch. The man still only gave Song Fengyue and Song Liguang a back, and he brought a lot of water, and soon watered all the herb fields.
However, in the next second, the man walked into a nearby herb field, took out the identical bottle of paraquat that Song Fengyue picked up that day, carefully poured a small amount into the wooden bucket filled with water, diluted it with water, and then poured it to the right!
Splash all the water in the bucket into the herb field on the right.
At this time, Song Liguang and Song Fengyue also saw the man's face clearly by the man's splashing action, "It's him!" The two exclaimed at the same time.
When it was over, the man heard the movement and ran away.
Song Liguang reacted, quickly flew over, and directly went over to the man's shoulder. However, the man's body was unusually vigorous and slippery, and he writhed back and forth under Song Liguang's crotch, and he even escaped Song Liguang's clamp.
There was no time to think, and the man continued to run forward without stopping long.
At this time, Song Fengyue had already rushed up and chased after him, but the man was very familiar with the terrain of the valley, and Song Fengyue fell behind for a while.
"Whoosh!" "Whoosh!" With two sounds, Song Liguang's arm was thrown, and two stones flew out, steadily hitting the two big holes on the man's back.
The legs suddenly went weak, and the man was numb.
Song Fengyue stepped forward pantingly and said excitedly,
"I've finally caught you, big bull!"
Yes, these days, the person who has been destroying the medicinal materials of the Thousand Medicine Valley is the big cow.
Song Fengyue's doubts these days all dissipated the moment she saw the big cow, why was the closed and tight warehouse, the people were rotting, and why the large tracts of medicinal herbs died. All of this has an answer.
By the time Song Fengyue and the two brothers sent the big cow to Yao's hometown, Xia Shangshang and Yang Ya had been waiting at home for a long time.
"You!" Yao Lao's eyes widened, his arm was raised high, and he was about to slap Da Niu's face, but in the end, he was powerless to put it down, and sighed: "Confused! β
Yao Lao couldn't imagine why his son would do such a thing, such a thing of guarding and stealing.
"Did Dugu arrogant instruct you?" Xia Shangshang asked bluntly.
At this point, it was useless for Da Niu to refute, there was no guilt on his face, and he simply admitted generously, "Yes!" β
Yao Lao Qi knot, "Unfilial son!" The Thousand Medicine Valley is the place where my medicine family has sheltered for generations, and you actually take care of the interests of the whole village for your own selfish desires! You, you unfilial son, Thousand Medicine Valley has really raised you for so many years! β
A trace of waves appeared on Da Niu's expressionless face, and his eyes were cold, "Dad, the interests of the whole village are interests, so my interests are not interests?" β
laughed at himself, "Dad, my son is twenty-eight this year, and the girl I was looking for a few years ago, which one didn't dislike his son for not having a reputation and being shabby?" Dad, you have done so much for Qianyao Village, have you ever thought about your son's future? β
Yao Lao was greatly disappointed in his heart, "Do you think it is so easy to become famous?" Since you were a child, you have been determined to be a general, but when you were asked to join the army, you said that you were too tired and bitter, and you were unwilling to go, and asked you to learn martial arts, and you were troublesome to learn martial arts. Learn literature, you don't want to, learn martial arts, you are afraid of hardship. Oh, where in the world is such a cheap thing? β
"I'm born with divine powers!" Da Niu's face was hideous, as if he was hit by the sore spot of Yao Lao, and retorted, "I have been infinitely powerful since I was a child, and I was born to be a general!" How can you be a little soldier like those nameless people? β
Yao Lao shook his head in disappointment, "Rebel, rebelΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β· Do you think the march is as simple as you think? If you have the strength to do so, you will be able to break through mountains and rivers? β
Da Niu has gone into a misunderstanding at the moment, and since he was a child, he has been the most unique and powerful one among his peers. When he was a child, he was a child king, and he had long regarded himself as a majestic general, how could he still listen to his old father's words?
The big cow slammed his neck, "I'll put my words here today, dad, if you want to take advantage of your son's life's future because of Qianyao Valley, you will continue to hand over Qianyao Gu to them!" β
"You, you, good! I can't imagine that I am a wise medicine old man, but I gave birth to a foolish son like you, and I will kill you and me! Yao Lao picked up the crutches at hand, and forgot to greet Da Niu with one hand.
Song Fengyue was slightly flustered, although he hated Da Niu for destroying the medicinal materials of the Thousand Medicine Valley, but he didn't want to make other people's families restless, so he rushed up to stop him immediately.
"You hit! You can kill me! Da Niu roared angrily, his eyes slightly red, "Since my mother's death, you haven't taken care of me anyway!" I'd rather teach Yang Ya medical skills to an outsider than pave the way for my son's future! You have a Thousand Medicine Valley in your heart, a Thousand Medicine Village, and all the villagers, but you can't pretend to be your own son! Okay, if you want to be a good person, you have to be a great good person, you can do it! Let's see if when you get old, you, a good person, will anyone remember you? Don't shit when the time comes, I want me to wipe your ass! β
Da Niu is obviously very angry, although Yao Lao is strict with him, but he has never hit him, although Song Fengyue can be stopped, Yao Lao's crutches still fall on Da Niu's shoulder.
Enduring the sharp pain in his shoulder, Da Niu said stubbornly, "Dad, you have to think about the villagers of Qianyao Village, I won't stop you." But you've been thinking about it for so many years, when did you think about your son? Could it be that in your heart, the son is not as important as the title of a village chief? β
After enduring so many years, Da Niu finally said it. Over the years, Da Niu still remembers that after his mother's death, his father didn't even have the first seven days of his mother's life, so he went out to repair a pigsty for the villagers.
At that time, my little self was left alone in the mourning hall, and I was scared and helpless. He wished that his mother was still alive, so at least he wouldn't have to wait at home every day for his father, who didn't know when he would come back. The promised rock sugar gourd, dragged on again and again, and when it came to the New Year, the medicine was finally empty, and he happily put on new clothes and was ready to go to the town with him to buy rock sugar gourds, but the villagers said hello, and the medicine old went out again.
So, the big bull swears. It is impossible for him to repeat the mistakes of Yao Lao in this life, he wants to get out of the Thousand Medicine Valley, leave the group of people in the Thousand Medicine Village, and live his own life.
The conditions given by Dugu Ao were really exciting, and Da Niu was full of joy thinking that he finally had a chance to go out, but he didn't expect Yao Lao to sell the Thousand Medicine Valley to Xia Shangshang and others.
The villagers still have silver subsidies for every household, so what about themselves? What's there? Those silvers, when they are used, are gone, how can they compare to the dreams that have been buried in my heart since childhood?
