Chapter 2: Black Dragon Village
Bai and Lao, this is the first impression left by the person who opened the door to Wu Wei, only to see that this person has white hair, a white beard, two white eyebrows, and an old face. He wears a white cardigan, black trousers, and a long black cloth belt around his waist. Wear a leather collar coat on the outside.
"Old man, can you give me a bowl of water to drink first? I'm borrowing a thicker dress. "Master Yang just wanted to step forward to talk, but Wu Wei had already stepped forward to talk first. Because it was too cold and thirsty.
"Yes, you guys should come in first." The village chief stepped aside and glanced at the person in front of him.
A young man, dressed in white short-sleeved and black shorts, wearing a leather collar coat on the outside, his hands crossed and wrapped around his shoulders, shivering with cold, scratches all over his body, and his feet without shoes had begun to swell, and there were blood stains on his legs as if they had been injured.
A middle-aged man with two thick eyebrows, a thick beard on his mouth, a blue bun, a white cardigan, a black collared coat, blue trousers, and a red cloth belt around his waist.
After the two entered the courtyard, the village chief reflexively closed the courtyard door.
"Who is it, old man?" At this moment, a female voice came from the inner room.
"Asking for water, I need help." The old village chief closed the door, turned around and responded to the room.
"Sit down first, and I'll go and get you some clothes and shoes, some herbs, and some firewood to make a fire and boil water." Look at this young man cold. The village chief said to the two and went into the house.
After a while, the village chief came out of it with a few clothes, a pair of shoes, and herbs in his hands. There were a few people behind,
"You wear this first."
"Thank you." "Thank you."
"These herbs can solve your leg injury, fortunately the injury on your leg is not serious, it should be bitten by some animal, fortunately the bite is not deep, take some medicine, two or three days will be fine. Young man, what's your name. ”
"Thank you, old man, my name is Wu Wei, you can call me Xiao Wu"
After a while, a fire was lit. The crowd sat around the brazier. It's so comfortable, this is how Wu Wei feels now.
"I'm the head of my village, and I don't know if you need any help." The village chief spoke.
"My surname is Yang, is a carpenter, has a son named seven catties, before to help people do carpentry, yesterday finished the work, today plan to go home, this afternoon, passing by a little Cangshan, feel tired, rest on the road, originally I was going to fetch some water, but my son said he went, the result was not returned, I went to the pool where he fetched water only found a shoe, I think my son was not transferred by the beast, or fell into the pool. I searched for an afternoon, but I still couldn't find anyone, so I wanted to ask the village chief to help me find it. To live to see people, to die to see corpses. ”
"Master Yang, we feel sorry for you when your child is lost, in fact, we are just like you, we have been harmed by that evil sow dragon. It comes out of the Black Dragon Pond every three years to make trouble, and as soon as it comes out, it makes waves, making the people in our area ruined, and after making trouble, although it goes back to the Black Dragon Pond, but usually whoever goes to Tan Bian to get water, he will catch whoever into the pool. ”
Hearing this, Master Yang slowly lowered his head, covered his face with his left hand, and tears flowed down unconsciously.
Not only that, but this cunning sow dragon often transforms into various human forms, causing trouble and harming people everywhere. In this way, I don't know how many people he has killed over the years. Look at these two poor orphans, their parents were killed by the sow dragon. ”
Master Yang turned his head to look at the child in front of him.
Wu Wei was also looking at the two children in front of him. A man and a woman, about thirteen or fourteen years old, the boy was dressed in a blue bun, a red cardigan, black trousers, and a blue belt around his waist, with a sad and angry expression. The girl wears a white blouse, red shoulders, three silver ornaments hanging on the right knot, a short red girdle around the waist, a blue wide library underneath, and embroidered shoes. Close to the boy, with a sad face.
Master Yang looked at the child in front of him and couldn't help but think of his own child. Master Yang looked down at the lamb carved by his son in his hand, and then looked up at the two children.
"Let me ask you, do you want to avenge your parents?" , Master Yang suddenly took the boy's hand and said to the two children.
"Take revenge." The brother and sister all spoke in a firm tone.
"Yes, we have to pay back." Master Yang patted the boy's shoulder with his left hand and clenched his fist with his right hand and said.
"I don't know how you plan to take revenge, Master Yang, as long as there is someone who needs our help, just ask." The old village chief spoke.
"Carved Dragon"
"Carved dragon?" Everyone had a confused tone.
"Yes, carving dragons, I have the art of carving dragons, and I can carve living dragons."
······
At night, Wu Wei was lying on the bed, preparing to rest, and couldn't help but think of today's legendary day, thinking about it, and suddenly thinking of something and sitting up.
"Carved dragon, carved dragon, it turned out to be the world of carved dragons."
Wu Wei frowned, carefully recalling the plot of the Dragon Carving. The Legend of the Dragon is a puppet animation that Wu Wei saw a long time ago, about an old carpenter who took his son on the way home, and his son was eaten by an evil dragon when he went to fetch water. The old carpenter was so grieved by the loss of his beloved son that he decided to eliminate the harm to the people. With his superb skills, he carved a wooden dragon with the people of the village. The carved dragon can go up to the sky and into the sea, stir up wind and waves, breathe fire and spit water. Throw the wooden dragon into Tan, only to be defeated by the evil dragon. But Carpenter Yang did not lose heart, but carved a larger wooden dragon with the village blacksmith, and equipped the wooden dragon with iron scales and iron claws, so as to defeat the evil dragon.
Thinking of this, Wu Wei showed a smile on his face, not to mention the rest of this world, just if he can learn the ability to carve wooden dragons, then he is not afraid of anything. Thinking about it, Wu Wei lay on the bed and fell asleep unconsciously smiling.
The next day, Wu got up with a sore back. When I left the house, I saw that the village chief was organizing the villagers to build something.
"Old village chief, what are you doing?" Wu Wei shouted at the old village chief and asked.
"Oh, Xiao Wu, how did you sleep yesterday, you slept well."
"Fortunately, it's just that I haven't slept in such a hard bed for a long time, but I have a little backache. By the way, what are you doing here? What about Master Yang? ”
"Oh, that's good, we're building a yard for Master Yang to carve wooden dragons. Master Yang followed my son up the mountain early this morning to look for timber. ”
"Okay, then I'll help too."
"Okay."
In the afternoon, Master Yang and the son of the village chief came back with the wood, and the house was almost built. The whole village is working hard, and Master Yang is carving alone.
