Chapter 139: Guojia Village
Guojia Village is different from Gaojia Village, the scale is not large, and there is a circle of wooden fences around it, forming a village, outsiders cannot enter at will, and people inside need to open the door.
There are thirty or fifty families in the village, and there are more than 100 people, and Guo Juren is a well-deserved patriarch and village owner.
At the beginning, he was just a reckless young man in the village, with the strength of his two arms, he began to cause trouble since he was a teenager, and he often ran out, saying that he wanted to walk all over the famous mountains and rivers and visit the heroes of the world.
He did go, and no one in the village could stop him, and he was even a little happy about his trip.
Only a year later, Guo Juren came back, his temperament changed greatly, he no longer caused trouble, and his strength was used to help others, and he soon won the love of the whole village, and he married his wife and had children smoothly, and became the de facto owner of the village before he was thirty years old, in charge of the big and small affairs in the village.
The old patriarch of the village saw it, and before he died, he publicly passed the position to this rising star, and never asked about the affairs of the village again.
Since ancient times, no one knows how ancient it is, only remember that the ancestors passed it down from generation to generation - Guojia Village cannot exceed one hundred and twenty-one people, the reason has long been forgotten, but no one dares to violate the ancestral teachings, Guo Juren abides by it very strictly, weddings and funerals, baby births, old people die, etc., must be calculated and agreed by him.
He had a habit of being different from the previous patriarchs, always feeling that Guojia Village was not safe enough, and when he fully grasped the power, he mobilized the whole village to move to a higher and more dangerous place, and spent nearly twenty years building a village near the old village that was easy to defend and difficult to attack.
In the process, the villagers will inevitably complain, after the completion of the new village, everyone feels that the new village is better, at least do not have to worry about the attack of wild beasts, and can sleep peacefully at night.
Not long ago, Gaojia Village was burned down, and when the news came, the villagers of Guojia Village were even more glad that the village was well guarded, and since then it has been more strictly controlled by outsiders.
Hu Guiyang and his entourage were therefore blocked out of the village.
Lao Guo Qi and Xiao Guo Huo have blood relatives in the village, and they have been able to travel freely before, but this is the first time they have been blocked, both unexpected and embarrassed, and they apologized to Hu Guiyang and others vigorously.
The gate was built on a high place, and a steep hillside served as a natural wall, so outsiders could only stand on a narrow mountain road and look up to talk to it.
"I'm not an outsider! I am Guo Laoqi's son, Lao Guo Qi, and Guo Juren are uncles and nephews, you all know me, I can recognize you, you are the one who is from whose family, and you have to call me Uncle Seven......"
"Uncle Seven, I know you, if you were alone, or Xiao Guohuo alone, I would have let you in, but there are too many people you have brought, and they are all unfamiliar faces, I can't open the door."
Lao Guo Qi turned around and smiled apologetically at Hu Guiyang and the others, and said again: "I didn't bring an outsider, this one is called Hu Guiyang, and he is a great benefactor of our Gaojia Village!" ”
"You don't even have a village, what more benefactor do you need?"
This sentence annoyed Xiaocao, she kept listening, and then stepped forward and said loudly: "Less nonsense, open the door quickly!" ”
The person above took a look, "This is General Gao's sister, right?" I can't open the door anymore, Guo Juren said, Gaojia Village was destroyed by General Gao, that woman is a big trouble, and her sister is a small trouble. ”
Xiaocao flew out with a shot, and the people on the village hurriedly shrank their heads, the chain gun was too short, and it fell off without even touching the gate, and Xiaocao had no way at all.
Lao Guo Qi and Xiao Guo Huo also had nothing to do, so they could only look back at Hu Guiyang.
Everyone was looking at him, it was he who brought everyone all the way to Gaojia Village, but he had a retreat, he couldn't enter, he couldn't retreat, and the situation was quite embarrassing.
Hu Guiyang didn't expect Guo Juren to be so difficult to deal with, and said to Zhao Aqi beside him: "It's time for you to behave." ”
"Senior brother, what do you say?"
"Can you climb up?"
Zhao Aqi took a look, the village is not particularly tall, the fence and steep slope, about six or seven zhang high, but the hillside is steep and slippery, and the vines and trees that grow have been cut off, leaving only patches of slippery moss, not even a hand.
"If it had been before, I would definitely not have been able to, now-" Zhao Aqi tightened his belt, "I can try." ”
"I don't have to try, I'm sure I can do it." As soon as He Wu's madman spoke, Zhao Aqi had already run out, for fear of being robbed of his credit.
Zhao Aqi walked along the road, avoided the steep slope, until he came to the gate of the village, looked up for a while, picked the wooden fence and climbed up, and when he was halfway up, the guards above noticed it, and he was shocked and frightened, shouted to stop, and stabbed down with the spear in his hand.
Zhao Aqi paused slightly, reached out and grabbed a spear that had pierced him, pulled it down, and threw it on the ground.
The guards above were almost planted out, and they were even more frightened, shouting and calling for helpers.
Although Zhao Aqi had not learned subtle light skills, he climbed extremely fast, and the people above had not yet gathered, he had already turned over the gate of the village, stood upstairs, knocked over the guards with three fists and two feet, and then said loudly to Hu Guiyang outside: "Senior brother, what should I do next?" ”
"Come down!" Hu Guiyang also replied loudly.
Everyone was stunned, especially Zhao Aqi, "Just go on like this?" ”
"Yes, come down the same way."
Zhao Aqi was obedient, first knocked down two villagers who went upstairs to help, and then climbed over the fence and climbed down.
Fan Dajian kept looking at Zhao Aqi, and then whispered to Hu Guiyang: "Hey, you really have the ability to subdue such a ...... Eccentric. ”
Hu Guiyang smiled but did not speak.
Zhao Aqi returned to Hu Guiyang, "That's it?" ”
"Well, Guojia Village is self-consolidated, I just want to tell the villagers inside, no matter how high the fence is, it can't stop the real masters, if they understand this truth, they will let us into the village, if they don't understand, it's useless to say more, let's go to Lijia Village instead."
Zhao Aqi didn't hear anything else, only noticed the words "real master" and grinned.
Really let Hu Guiyang guess correctly, in less than a pillar of incense, the door of the village was opened, and more than ten people came out, all holding spears, and a tall and strong old man was the first, with gray hair, but he walked with a tiger's style.
Old Guo Qi immediately reminded in a whisper: "This is Guo Juren." ”
Hu Guiyang stepped forward to greet him, Guo Juren stopped, stood with a gun, his eyes swept around, but he skipped the nearest Hu Guiyang, and said loudly: "Which hero crossed my gate just now?" ”
Zhao Aqi couldn't stand the flattery of others, and took a step forward and said, "The hero is me." ”
Guo Juren glanced at Zhao Aqi a few times, didn't say anything, turned his gaze to the others, and quickly fell on old Guo Qi, "You know our rules, what is the intention of deliberately bringing outsiders here?" ”
Old Guo Qi was afraid of Guo Juren, nodded his head, and didn't dare to squeak when he smiled.
Guo Juren's gaze continued to turn, and fell on Xiaocao again, "Your sister not only killed herself, but also killed the entire Gaojia Village, I expected this kind of thing to happen, so I didn't allow your sister to enter my house at the beginning." ”
Xiaocao's face was flushed with anger, she was a girl in the mountains, she was not good at words, and she wanted to throw a flying gun when she was angry, Hu Guiyang moved in front of her, and said with a smile: "Guo Juren sent people to Gaojia Village back then, just to convey this prophecy in person, right?" No wonder General Gao would fight. ”
Guo Juren finally set his eyes on Hu Guiyang, "Guojia Village does not welcome outsiders, especially the government, please go, if you are willing, you can stay in this village, we will not leave others in Gaojia Village, the quota is not enough, please go to Lijia Village." ”
Guo Juren had heard of Hu Guiyang's identity.
"Guojiacun doesn't welcome tolerances?"
"Not only is it not welcome, we are willing to let you go, which is the greatest courtesy."
Guo Juren became more and more arrogant, and the more everyone listened, the more angry they became, and they all held back their anger, only Hu Guiyang was still smiling, "Okay, I'm not verbose." Soon there will be more 'tolerances' to visit Guojia Village, and if you want to 'let them go', it will be very difficult, so make the fence higher. ”
Hu Guiyang said to Lao Guo Qi and Xiao Guo Huo: "You can stay, or you can go with me." ”
The two glanced at each other, and Xiao Guohuo said, "I, I'll stay." ”
Lao Guo Qi said: "If you want to go to Lijia Village, I am willing to lead the way." ”
"Go to Lijia Village."
Hu Guiyang arched his hand, did not say goodbye, led the horse, and led everyone to turn away.
After walking a short distance, He Wu Maniac finally couldn't help it, "Just left?" I worked so hard to come here, I didn't have a scoop of water, I didn't have a mouthful of rice, I was so angry that I didn't even let out a fart when I left? ”
"Go ahead and put one, we'll be waiting for you here." Hu Guiyang didn't feel humiliated.
"Phew, I've seen it through, you just have a lot of hard work, you can deceive Zhao Aqi, but you are bullied but you don't dare to do it."
"My name is Zhao Lixing."
Hu Guiyang continued to lead the horse forward, and said loudly: "If anyone wants to fight with me, it is the wrong person, and my purpose is to let all of you not have to fight one day." ”
"What's the point of not fighting?" He Wu was very surprised, turned his head to look, and found that the third sister was nodding, Yuan Mao, Fan Dajian, Zhang Wuchen and others also seemed to agree, only Zhao Aqi rarely agreed with him once, and whispered: "If you don't fight, how can you dominate the rivers and lakes?" ”
Hu Guiyang pointed to a mountain range in the distance and said to Lao Guo Qi: "Can you camp there?" ”
"Yes, but we can go a little further before dark."
"No need, find a dry place to rest early, and save Guo Juren some physical strength and let him walk less."
Old Guo Qi was stunned, and most of the others didn't understand, and after walking out for a while, He Wu Madman finally woke up, "You mean Guo Juren will catch up?" ”
"Perhaps." Hu Guiyang smiled, "Anyway, I'm tired, I have to take a good rest." ”
After everyone camped on the mountain, it was not completely dark, Hu Guiyang did not eat, fell asleep, and told Yuan Mao: "Unless there is another sneak attacker, don't wake me up until dawn." ”
The others were not so sleepy, they built a bonfire, sat together, divided into several groups, they were not too familiar with each other, they fell silent after chatting a few words, everyone refused to fall asleep too early, and they all wanted to see if Guo Juren would really chase them out.
The night was getting deeper and deeper, and everyone lay down one after another, only Zhao Aqi and He Wu were crazy people who kept vigil, and the two despised each other, but they revered and hated Hu Guiyang, so they insisted longer.
In the middle of the night, no one chased after him, He Wu Madman stood on a high place, looked at the direction of Guojia Village, and said in surprise: "Hey, Guojia Village has also been lit on fire, it is still a fire!" ”
