Chapter 347: Northwest
Some people even say that in this river, when it rains on a cloudy day, I once saw a dragon flying into the air, and this river disappeared completely, and when it rained, the dragon disappeared. The river has reappeared. The old people always say that this river is the embodiment of the dragon, so no one dares to fish and shrimp in this river, for fear that the dragon will be angry.
It's really sparsely populated here, and I won't write that I will live along this river, and the old people say that this dragon doesn't like others to be near it. If someone builds a house around him and lives next to it, he will be eaten by it. It is said that there is really such a thing. There really is no one who dares to settle next to this river.
Standing in the position of Li Sui and others, looking forward, this river is really like a dragon lying on this desolate northwest land, under the sunlight, the flowing river water is like a swimming dragon. I can't see the head of the dragon clearly, and I can't see the tail of the dragon, which makes people feel awe.
"I don't know, is this a legend true or not? Is this river really so evil? Ye Jinyu actually didn't want to believe it, but judging from the information inquired by the locals, what he said was justified and well-founded, and there was a beginning and an end. Inevitably, my heart is also empty.
"There is nothing groundless, and since this is the case, there is a certain shadow. However, the level of these people is low, and they always like to make some ghosts and spirits. You have to believe it, and you can't believe it all. Li Sui still believes in these words, it is impossible to blow so much, and the entire Northwest people are talking about it, so there is a certain shadow, maybe it is not some god and ghost, but. Some of the forces of nature that are naturally formed, which are also not to be ignored.
"Actually, don't care what it is, wait until we get close to him and take a closer look, won't we?" Qin Haimo couldn't wait, no matter who saw the treasure in front of him, it was impossible for him to be calm.
"In that case, then I'd better find a dwelling and live there for a few days, I'll wait there for you to come back, otherwise, I'm pregnant, and I've caused you a lot of trouble, and if I go with you, it will inevitably be even more troublesome." Xiao Yuting is approaching, but she retreats, but it's okay to take her over.
"In that case, let's find a village to put Sister Yuting down first. Then let's go to Naxijiang, Sister Yuting is still mainly based on the safety of the fetus. Ye Jinyu also couldn't wait to get away from this Xiao Yuting, smiling at herself all day long, and she didn't know what she wanted to do, her face was almost stiff in the past two days.
"Okay, in that case, let's go find the village first."
The Dark Guards are very efficient.
"Back to my master, there is a village about three miles to the south."
"Back to the emperor, three miles to the south, there is a village where the queen can be placed."
The people on both sides replied at the same time, Li Sui and Qin Haimo looked at each other, Li Sui did not speak, this matter is about Xiao Yuting, she has no right to speak, everything is decided by Qin Haimo, Ye Jinyu will not say anything, after all, she wants to have one less thing.
"In that case, Lord Sui, let's go to the village to rest first, inquire about the situation by the way, and settle Yuting properly, tomorrow, we will go to Xijiang again, how about it?"
Qin Haimo looked at Li Sui, although Li Sui didn't speak, but as a cooperative party, Qin Haimo still had to discuss it with Li Sui, even if it was out of equality.
"Emperor Yun said this, of course I don't have any opinion, Yuting is also my sister, her safety, of course, is the first priority, besides, it's not early today. If we go any further, we don't know what the danger is, and we don't know anything about it, so it's better to go to the locals and ask more about the situation. Li Sui naturally didn't have any opinions.
After a group of people dressed up simply, they entered the village, the customs here are very different from the capital, the women here are wrapped in headscarves, and the men are also wrapped in white cloth around their heads, and the black and yellow skin is in the white skin of the people, which looks out of place.
Because of the arrival of a group of people, it caused quite a stir in this small closed village. Although the group was dressed according to relatively simple costumes, there was still a big gap between them and the local costumes.
"Who are you, and why did you come to us?" An old man with a gray beard, who should be the leader of the place or something, surrounded by a group of people, blocked in front of the one-star people.
"Who are you?" The dark guards stepped forward to greet them first, and the dark guards on both sides stood around the four of them, quietly posing in a protective formation.
"I'm the patriarch here, and we've had no outsiders in our village for many years, who are you?" The patriarch has a white beard, a blue turban wrapped around his head, and a cane in his hand, he is not tall, but he is also old and strong, with a square face of national characters, and the flesh on both sides of the face, which is more cute and amiable. new world
"Patriarch, we are people who have come here to play, we are here to rest, and we ask the patriarch to be accommodating."
A secret guard stepped forward to communicate with the team leader, this kind of thing, Li Sui, Ye Jinyu, Qin Haimo and others do not need to come forward, especially in this kind of unfamiliar place.
"Play? Where are we going to play? ”
"It's just that looking at all of them are white and clean, why don't you have a good brain."
"Look at it like this, it's like a person who came out of a painting, it turns out that people are really so good-looking."
The surrounding crowd was talking, and Ye Jinyu and the others were also carefully observing the surroundings, and the houses here were not the same as those in the capital.
The capital is full of carved railings and paintings, extremely luxurious, and the houses here are purely for use. Each adobe house is a thatched hut. It has its unique charm, although it is not as gorgeous as the capital, but it is better than simplicity.
"The old man sees that you are dressed extraordinarily, may I ask where you are coming?" The patriarch is not incompetent, and these things can still be seen.
"Visitors from the East, come here to play, and visit the old people by the way." Seeing Qin Haimo's eyes, the dark guard understood the meaning, and told the patriarch about his intentions. "We didn't see any inns in this area. can only borrow a few fellow villagers' residences. I wonder if the patriarch can help? ”
"I can't make decisions about this matter, first of all, I don't know where you are from, what are your real intentions in coming to us?" The patriarch is still very cautious.
"Old man, I can assure you about this matter, we are just staying here for a while, looking for the ruins of an old man from the past. When the time comes, we'll be out of there soon. "Qin Haimo really can't stand it, it's just that he bought two houses, why is it so troublesome.
"Then may I ask who your old friend is, if it is really us, maybe we can help you find it." People don't have so many scheming here, and the reason why the patriarch asks these words is to see whose junior or friend this is? is so promising, it can be regarded as adding luster to his tribe.
"We'll find it ourselves, but here we need the team leader to be able to provide a place to rest. In terms of price, we will not treat you badly. We have a lady here, who is already pregnant, and she really can't sleep in the open, so I ask the patriarch to be accommodating. Qin Haimo glanced back at Xiao Yuting and took a step forward.
"It's not impossible to do this, but you are outsiders, this doesn't seem to be good, our village is all native-born, you shouldn't be used to it, this condition is simple, in fact, if you are looking for it on our side, it is better to go farther." Go find an inn on the other side of town. This can also walk all over our area, and it is much more comfortable to live. The patriarch still didn't agree with letting a few people live in the village, after all, for a closed feudal and backward village, it was not safe to suddenly live in so many strangers.
"We've noticed it at the inn in the town over there, but it's too far away, and we're mainly looking northwest. It's a waste of time to go back and forth, so many miles, and we don't feel at ease, it's so far. You see my sister has such a big belly, can we rest assured that she will stay so far away alone? Ye Jinyu also began to come forward to persuade, but he didn't expect this side to be so feudal and so resistant to outsiders.
"Patriarch, you see that they are quite pitiful, so let them find a place to settle in our village. People just come back to find the old people's hometown, and they don't hinder us from doing anything. The old woman next to the patriarch looked very kind with her silver-white hair. Kind eyebrows and kind eyes, love looked at Xiao Yuting's high bulging belly.
"Miao Po, our village has not taken in outsiders for decades. All of a sudden, so many people live in our village..."The patriarch was still a little embarrassed, after all, their origin was not clear, but they couldn't fully believe it when they said this.
"Look at these children, they all have good faces, they are definitely not the kind of people who can't be on the stage, this girl is pregnant with Liujia, so hard, if she is far away from these friends and relatives, wouldn't it be even more pitiful. Since they are here to find the deceased, it proves that they are affectionate and righteous, so you can let them live, it just so happens that I still have a few huts at the entrance of the village, and I can't live so much with an old woman, so let them live. From beginning to end, Miao Po's eyes only fell on Ye Jinyu and Xiao Yuting.
"Okay, since Miao Po said so, we don't have anything to say. These children, since they live in our village, our big guys will help others. It is not easy for others to come from a long way to find their old friends here, anyway, it is just these few days, we should welcome and welcome guests. The patriarch thought about it, and felt that it didn't matter, in the village, it was not authentic, in the village, it didn't have much to do with it, not to mention that his group didn't look like the kind of person who would steal chickens and touch dogs.
The group successfully settled in the village, Miao Po's house. Sure enough, it was a simple three-room hut. The small rooms on both sides, one for Li Sui and Ye Jinyu, one for Qin Haimo and Xiao Yuting, and the living room in the middle, the firewood room, is the camp of the secret guards, fortunately I didn't bring so many people with me this time, otherwise, it would be a problem where to live.
After a brief tidying up, Li Sui and Qin Haimo simply arranged it in the courtyard, although it was said that it was unlikely that there would be a sporty type here, but several other groups of people were coming here. I have to guard against it, not to mention, they are also unfamiliar with life now, and they don't know what kind of character the people here are. It's better to prevent problems before they happen.
