Chapter 34 Keeping the Green Hills

It didn't take much effort, Li Ziqun and the others found Wan Yixiang and Monkey, who came to report the news first, in Tujia Village. Looking at the blood marks on the face and branches of the monkey and the monkey, and then looking at the shoes with all the openings under the feet of the two people, the chestnut group stretched out his hands and patted the shoulders of the monkey: "It's hard!" ”

Towards the group of chestnuts, the monkey shook his head disappreciatively: "I'm nothing, it's just hard work in case it rings!" In order to take a shortcut and rush to Tujia Village as soon as possible, the road taken is full of trails drilled out of wild things in the mountains, and it is really a sinful job to walk in front and lead the way! ”

I was a little embarrassed to rub the two slaps that were much larger than ordinary people, and lowered my head a little shyly in case of sound: "It's also a shame that Brother Monkey took care of me along the way......"

Nodding approvingly, the chestnut group smiled in harmony with the monkey and Wan Yixiang: "Comrades help each other, this is a good tradition in our revolutionary ranks, and it is worthy of praise!" When did you arrive in Tujia Village? How are the preparations for the evacuation of the people in the village now? ”

Looking up at the sky, the monkey replied to the chestnut group, "It's almost two hours." After entering the village, it took a while to explain the situation to the person in charge of the village. At present, although the villagers in the village are preparing to evacuate, many of them are reluctant to save their hard-earned belongings...... Especially the medicinal materials that have been accumulated in Tujia Village over the years, there is no way to rush them away! Many old people said...... Death is also going to die next to these herbs! ”

As if he had seen a lot of such a situation a long time ago, the chestnut group looked up at the villagers who were busy cleaning up all kinds of belongings: "What about the people in charge of the village?" Where are you now? ”

Turning around and pointing towards the largest house in Tujia Village, the monkey suddenly lowered his voice: "Accompany the old man in Tujia Village who can't give up medicinal herbs to grind his teeth there!" I listened quietly to the side just now, this person in charge of Tujia Village seems to be not of high seniority, and every time he just speaks, he asks the old man in the village to point his nose and scold silently? ”

After thinking for a while, the chestnut group raised his voice and shouted to the martial arts team members gathered around him: "Everyone divides the labor, and the old comrades are scattered outside the village to guard, try to put the guard post farther away. The new comrades work in pairs to help the villagers in Tujia Village! Tianliu, are you familiar with the terrain around Tujia Village? ”

"I've been bumping into the mountains since I was a child, and there is no place in Tieping Mountain that I am not familiar with!"

"Then you come with me!"

Just as he was about to raise his legs and walk towards the largest house in Tujia Village, the chestnut group saw Sha Bangcui staring at Mo Tianliu with blank eyes, looking like he didn't know where to put his hands and feet without Mo Tianliu, he couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head, and beckoned to Sha Bangcui: "There is also a mallet, come with it!" ”

Tujia Village was originally not big, but after walking along the village road for a while, Liziqun, Mo Tianliu, and Sha Bangcui had already walked to the door of the big house. From the open gate, more than a dozen elderly people in Tujia Village were all sitting around with a short shuttle dart. And in the middle of the old men who were sitting around angrily, a man in the prime of his forties squatted on the ground with his head in his hands, and a sharp short shuttle dart was also thrown at his feet.

I didn't see anyone outside the door at all, an old man with white hair angrily paused the bluestone ground with the short shuttle dart in his hand, and shouted sharply to the middle-aged man who was squatting on the ground with his head in his hands: "Tu Banxia, do you still remember the ancestral teachings of the Tu family?!" The good do not deceive, and the wicked do not fear! The ancestors of my Tu family have taken root in this Tieping Mountain, and they have gritted their teeth to carry over many hardships, and they have never been forced to flee from the village like today! ”

With the same angry look, the other old man with a long scar on his face and even blind eyes nodded approvingly: "Brother Jiu is right!" Let's not talk about it, let's just say that in the past 30 years, how many wicked people have coveted the Chinese medicinal materials in my Tujia Village? Isn't it also holding foreign guns and cannons, looking like showing off their might? But who got a bargain in Tujia Village? According to me, I am willing to cut my whole body, and dare to pull the emperor off the horse! Isn't it the Japanese who came from outside the mountain with the help of a rich man? Shine on the heart and pierce it down, the same are two holes! ”

Wielding the short shuttle dart in their respective hands, among the old people sitting together, a few more people picked up the conversation: "That's right! Don't look at the foreign guns and cannons that can hit far, but our Tu family's kung fu is specifically to deal with this family! According to the playing style handed down by the ancestors - drill in the mud and hide in the soil, and when you get close, you can call the opponent with foreign guns and foreign cannons blind! ”

"Catch up with the solar terms, grab the dew, remove insects, repel birds, pick, dry, sweat beads fall to the ground and fall eight petals, these good medicinal materials that people have worked hard for two lifetimes have been so cheap for nothing, how can the rich man and the Japanese who colluded with him be cheap? ! I can't swallow this breath! Nothing else, I'll just stay in front of the medicinal herbs, desperately one is enough, and two of them are counted as earning......"

Tu Banxiaer, who was squatting on the ground, listened to the words of the old man in Tujia Village who would rather die than leave the village, and jumped up from the ground in a hurry, and even the tone of his speech became sharp: "My ancestors...... The letter from Brother Kou'er this time can be clearly explained, the devils and the second devils from our Tujia Village are enough to have 200 people! In addition, the rich man He raised the gunmen and family members in the nursing yard at home, how can it be counted as having 300 people and guns! All the men in our Tujia Village who can make the guy move are counted, and it is only a few dozen, even if he is covered in iron, how many nails can he make? For now, we have avoided this cusp of the storm, and when we turn back, we can still eat Chinese medicinal materials. But if you don't leave...... The people and the herbs are gone! ”

Without waiting for the old man of Tujia Village, who was sitting next to Tu Banxia, to speak, the chestnut group had already opened his voice to answer Tu Banxia's words: "This is reasonable!" The old generation has long left a message - stay in the green mountains, not afraid of no firewood! As long as the most precious thing in Tujia Village is not called a scourge by the devil, then the villagers in Tujia Village will still be able to live a good life in the future! ”

Looking at the group of chestnuts that strode into the house in surprise, the old man with white hair suddenly stood up from the chair and bowed his hand to the group of chestnuts: "This good man is ......?"

Taking a step forward, Mo Tianliu quickly responded to the old man with white hair: "Ninth Master, do you still remember me?" Mo Tianliu in Dawu Village...... When I was a child, I wandered around in Tieping Mountain, causing a stone to break my leg, or did you go up the mountain to collect medicinal herbs and meet me, and you gave me the medicine with your own hands? ”

Blinking his eyes and looking at Mo Tianliu for a while, Tu Jiuye, who had white hair, nodded slowly: "Is it you a little rabbit cub?" I have planted two ridges of yellow essence well, and I can see that there will be a harvest, but I asked you to lead the people to dig them all out and roast them! Or is the big man behind you real, you ran away and he didn't run, and he discussed with me to do a few days of work for me, which is considered to be a discount for my medicinal materials? ”

With a wry chuckle, Mo Tianliu lowered his head a little embarrassedly: "Ninth Master, you really have a good memory...... Why don't we have a fate-Tu Kou'er brother was born and entrusted our martial arts team to send a letter to Tujia Village? Ninth Master, this is our Li Da master, who specially led us to Tujia Village to help! The devils and the second devils who rushed towards Tujia Village also asked us to pack up, and it was estimated that it would be dark tonight before we could go to the He family's big gathering outside the mountain! Ninth Master, while our martial arts team has snatched out this bit of effort for Tujia Village, let's leave quickly......"

Stubbornly shook his head at Mo Tianliu, and Tu Jiuye said in a deep voice without doubt: "Tianliu, and this big Li master, your kindness and righteousness to the old and young people in my Tujia Village, I have a hundred and ten people in Tujia Village, naturally keep it in mind!" But this little bit of hard work that I have saved in two lifetimes in Tujia Village can't be cheaper for the devil and He Laocai! ”

Nodding approvingly, the chestnut group said to Tu Jiuye in a harmonious voice: "Your old man is right!" The good medicinal materials that our Chinese people have worked so hard to grow can't be cheaper! But if you let me say one thing....... I think the most valuable in this Tujia village is really not the medicinal herbs you said!? ”

His eyes widened, not only did Tu Jiuye not understand the meaning of the chestnut group's words for a while, but even the other old people in Tujia Village looked like they were confused.

Nodding towards Tu Banxia, who slowly stood up from the ground, the chestnut group said in a harmonious voice: "I think this Banxia brother is right-as long as there are people, then we can still grow medicinal materials in the future." But if the person is gone, the medicine can't be saved! If you follow what I said, as long as you old people can be preserved, that is the foundation of Tujia Village! ”

Fiddling with his fingers, the chestnut group continued with a clear eye: "Doesn't the old saying say that there is an old man in the family, if there is a treasure? This is not to mention the fine craftsmanship of planting medicinal materials and pharmaceutical materials, that is, ordinary farmers farming, an old style standing on the ground and looking at the past, the annual harvest, water and fertilizer can be said clearly! A family can have such an old-fashioned palm-eye rudder, how can an acre of land be able to produce a few more liters of grain? Ninth Master, and all the old people, do you think this is the truth? ”

His eyes lit up, and Tu Banxia, who was originally called the old man in Tujia Village, who was forced to have nothing to say, suddenly came to his senses: "That's what I said!" Ninth Master, in this Tujia Village, when it comes to the craftsmanship of making cooked land, who can compare to you? And the second uncle, when did the pharmacies in Qingle and Nangong counties rush to collect the gastrodia, Caowu, Qingle and Nangong counties you cleaned up? ”

Glaring at Tu Banxia fiercely, Tu Jiuye stubbornly whispered: "The truth is good, but those medicines ....... If you can't take it away or hide it, can it be a fire? ”

Towards Tu Jiuye, Mo Tianliu answered Tu Jiuye's words at this time: "Jiuye, do you remember that I stole the yellow essence you planted when I was a child, and ran away when I saw you coming?" Don't you wonder? Why did I turn around the mountain pass next to the medicinal herb field in Tujia Village and disappear? ”

Looking at Mo Tianliu's somewhat proud appearance, the chestnut group couldn't help but laugh and scolded Mo Tianliu in a low voice: "Tianliu, when is this time?" Still selling off in front of the big guys? Hurry up! ”

With a somewhat sly smile, Mo Tian carefully lowered his voice mysteriously: "Just in the mountain pass next to that medicinal herb field, there is a big lying cow stone, and there is a hole with a cow's waist thickness under the stone!" Thirty steps from the entrance of the cave, there is a big gourd hole, and there is a stone patio on the top of the cave! ”

With round eyes, Tu Jiuye almost shouted at Mo Tianliu: "Is there really a big hole in that place?!" How big is it? Is there water in it?! ”

"The hole in that stuffy gourd is quite big, and it can tie twenty cows! The cave was quite cool, and there was no water in sight. But...... There were a lot of rusty iron tools in the cave, and I couldn't tell what they were for......"

Sitting on the chair with a butt, Tu Jiuye gasped for breath, and it took a long time to stare at his eyes and shout a sentence: "Ancestor bless..... Ancestors apparitions......"

Looking at Tu Jiuye with an excited look on his face in surprise, the one-eyed old man with a scar on his face couldn't help but exclaim in surprise: "Brother Jiu, what's wrong with you?" ”

Raising his eyes to look at the one-eyed old man, Tu Jiuye hurriedly shouted: "When the ancestor of our Tu family village first arrived here, it was the time when the soldiers were in trouble. Just in case, there is a place near the village where you can hide people! It's just that after a long time, even the old people in the village can't tell where this hiding place is! Originally...... I've been in front of me every day since I was a child, but I didn't expect it...... Ancestors bless...... This time, all the medicinal materials in the village can be saved! ”

glared at Mo Tianliu with some disgust, and the chestnut group whispered to Mo Tianliu: "Tianliu, next time there is this shaking burden, I will really clean you up!" ”

Showing an exaggerated expression of grievance towards the chestnut group, Mo Tianliu unceremoniously shouted out the wrong: "Big boss, this is really not me deliberately trying to take the big guy!" If I hadn't seen Tu Jiuye today, then I wouldn't have remembered the things that made me when I was a child...... It's not meritorious, but you can't blame me......"

With a muffled snort, Sha Bangcui, who was standing beside Mo Tianliu, snatched the conversation at this time: "Okay, you stay for a day...... If you don't tell me if there's a place to hide, you're sneaking away...... If you're a child, you'll pit me......"

With a glare of his eyes, Mo Tianliu unceremoniously shouted at Sha Bangcui: "Can I be blamed for this? Who told you to be born when you were a child? As for the hole with a cow's waist, if you drill slowly, you have to be caught, maybe you can still get stuck in the hole, and neither of us will be able to run away at that time! Which is stronger, one person unlucky or two people unlucky? You can't settle this account? ”

"Anyway...... You're cheating me! ”

Ignoring Mo Tianliu and Sha Bangcui, who were arguing in private, the chestnut group said in harmony to Tu Jiuye, who was full of excitement: "Ninth Master, since we have found a place where we can store medicinal materials, let's hurry up and move the medicinal materials over, right?" Although the devil and the second devil may not have the courage to sneak attack Tujia Village at night tonight, we still have to pay attention? ”

Nodding his head hurriedly, Tu Jiuye suddenly stood up from the stool: "This is to be carried!" In the middle of summer, quickly gather all the people in the village, leave the ordinary family items aside for the time being, and hide the medicinal herbs in the dark hole first......"
