Chapter 49: Vibrant
She thought about it and finally stood up and said, "I am the party involved in this matter, can I say a few words to the village chief's grandfather?"
Village Chief Chu was having a headache at the moment, and when he saw her standing up, she seemed to have an idea, and hurriedly said, "This is as it should be, Xiao Yun, if you have anything to say, just say it." ”
"Thank you, village chief." Chu Xinyun looked at Chu Dacang and Liu, it was impossible not to be disgusted in his heart, Chu Dacang looked honest and responsible, in fact, he was very shrewd in his heart, as soon as he came in, he pushed everything on Liu, and even called his wife, which was completely taking himself out.
Who doesn't know what happened before, if there is no acquiescence from him, how can Liu do it alone?
She couldn't help sneering in her heart: Don't even think about getting out of this matter!
So she thought of a way to use this incident to completely drive this family out of Chujia Village!
She cleared her throat and said, "Everyone is an eyewitness to what Liu did, and this matter is a mistake she did out of jealousy. ”
"Although the Liu family treated me harshly before, I, Chu Xinyun, am not a person who will take revenge, and I can ignore today's affairs....."
Hearing the words "don't care", Liu's eyes suddenly lit up, but in the next paragraph, she instantly turned pale.
"Although I don't care about it, but there is still a punishment, and there is no need to send it to the government to be so troublesome, you can move directly from Chujia Village!"
When the village chief of Chu heard this way of dealing with it, he was very sympathetic, after all, the Liu family did not contribute at all in Chujia Village, and they always caused a lot of bad trouble, if they could be expelled from the village, then they would save a lot of worry!
This time it was Chu Dacang's turn to be anxious, and he immediately knelt down and said, "Village Chief, Xiao Yun, this Chujia Village is my root!" Our ancestors have been here for generations, and if we are allowed to get out of it, how can we live!"
Xiao Shu on the side heard Chu Xinyun say this, and he agreed very much in his heart.
He saw that Chu Dacang's family was not pleasing to the eye for a day or two, and the whole family was not a good thing, if they could move out, then Xiao Yun would be much safer in the future.
After hearing this, Liu Shi also hurriedly cried, saying that Chu Xinyun had completely cut off their roots, and there was no way to live!
Village Chief Chu was also a little embarrassed for a while, Xiao Shu stood up indifferently at this moment and said: "The world is so natural, and now you have nothing at all in Chujia Village except for a broken house, why do you complain here?"
Chu Dacang was said to be desperate, a farmer who has been planting land for half his life, but his family has not talked about a piece of land, which is really sad.
Xiao Shu then said: "If you are willing to move out, I can ask someone to help you find a place, and send someone to send you there, there is land and housing there, self-sufficiency is not a problem, it will be a little farther away from here.....
As soon as Chu Dacang heard that there was a land, he immediately came to life, and he hurriedly said: "It's not in the way if it's far away, if there is really a land......"
"I said yes, naturally there is."
Chu Dacang was also afraid of him from the bottom of his heart, and even kowtowed a few times to the village chief and others, saying that he was willing to go, which was considered atonement or something.
When the village chief saw that a matter had finally been resolved, he finally put his mind at ease.
After sending Chu Dacang's family away, Xiao Shu went to deal with the matter, and he also had to inform Xiao San that they would come over to get people.
And the previous person who played Dao Gu was let go after being scolded and warned a few words, after all, nothing happened, and Chu Xinyun didn't bother to care.
The topic returned to the matter of sacrificing children, Chu Xinyun was naturally unwilling, after all, there were many people involved in this, there were at least seven or eight village chiefs who went to the meeting, and ten children in one village, adding up to seventy or eighty!
The thought that if she didn't solve this locust plague, dozens of children would be sacrificed, and her heart was blocked.
"Village chief, can't the matter of this child sacrifice really be discussed? Not to mention that there is no one in the village now, even if there is, how can the father and mother bear to watch them die?"
As soon as he talked about this matter, the village chief felt uncomfortable: "This is all ordered by the county magistrate, and he really has no choice, this locust plague is getting worse day by day, if it is not solved, I am afraid that many people will starve to death this winter." ”
When he remembered the days when he was young, when there were corpses all over the field and his face was yellow and thin, he couldn't help but shiver.
Chu Xinyun frowned, in fact, the easiest way to control the locust plague is how to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, she still remembered what she had read in the newspaper at that time, there was no other way than to burn it or dig a pit to bury it.
In this era, there are no potions or the like, and the capture of locusts depends entirely on manpower, so the efficiency is very low.
She didn't sleep well all night because of this, and at this moment, Xiao Wu, who received the news of Xiao Killing, also arrived at the county government of Yunlai County, and Zhao County, who was holding the order, couldn't help but tremble, and his eyes were full of horror.
He didn't think much about it when he was first assigned, and he had no choice but to ask for help from a nearby goddess, who said that it would only be like this because he angered the locust god, and that he had to sacrifice virgins and virgins.
He really went to the doctor without illness, and he had to tell the village chiefs about it.
But he did not expect that the decree came from above that night, saying that it was forbidden to sacrifice to boys and girls, and the cold sweat on his forehead never broke from the beginning.
He's definitely being watched! How else would this thing be so fast?
Xiao Wu looked at the county with a panicked face, and his face was mocking, sure enough, he was able to come to this small place to be an official for a few months, and his previous performance was just deliberately maintaining his reputation.
"Big... My lord, the lower official is really powerless to come out of this lower side, can you please say a few words for the lower official at that time.....
Xiao Wu said calmly: "This is naturally easy to say." ”
Zhao Xianling breathed a sigh of relief, and stuffed a purse into his purse with a smile: "A little heart, a little heart." ”
Xiao Wu simply refused, and said coldly: "Zhao County Order, now that you have not been in office for many years, what do you think about your political achievements?"
Zhao Xianling was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "My lord, the population of this Yunlai County is not large, and there are more than a dozen villages near Qingshui Town. ”
"My lord, the officials are indeed powerless about this locust plague, please can you give me some advice.....
"Don't dare to point out, you post this on the notice board early tomorrow morning, and then just do it according to the above, I still have something to do, so I'll go first."
Xiao Wu didn't bother to talk to him here, put the letter in his hand on the table and got up and left.
Zhao Xianling hurriedly got up and followed behind: "My lord... Your Excellency will send you ....."
But as soon as he chased to the door, the person disappeared, which shocked Zhao Xianling so much that he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
After making sure that there was no one, Zhao Xianling went back to the house and opened the letter left by Xiao Wu, and the moment he saw it, the expression on his face was really wonderful.
This.. This is said to let yourself not make any strange powers, so what is the Nine Heavens Xuannu mentioned in this letter?!
He slumped into his chair, lost in thought.
Recently, the news of the locust infestation has spread throughout Yunlai County, and even the prices of various dishes have risen a lot, and people have complained.
"The county magistrate has posted a notice! The county magistrate has posted a notice!!"
The shouting instantly spread throughout the street, and many people went to see the excitement.
Many illiterate men stared at Bangwen for a long time and were confused, so they had to turn to the young man wearing Sven on the side.
"This little brother, what is written in this list?"
The young man glanced at it and said, "It is said that the locusts have been raging recently, and the county magistrate was entrusted with a dream yesterday that there was an abnormality on the mountain, so I decided to go and see it early this morning. ”
"This is good, whether it is a male or female baby, it is the treasure of the father's mother, how can it be taken out and sacrificed!"
"That's it, I thought yesterday that the county master had a bad brain.....
"Shhhh
And Chu Xinyun didn't know anything about what was happening in the county seat at this moment, and now she was sitting in a carriage and going to Xuannu Mountain in Yunlai County with Xiao Shu.
She has been heartbroken for the sacrifice of boys and girls five days later, and the whole person is a lot haggard, Xiao Kill was very distressed when she saw it, so she thought that she would go to Xuannu Mountain to relax, maybe she could think of a way to be happy?
Chu Xinyun couldn't cry or laugh: "You treat me as an immortal, how can this method be thought of when you think about it?"
But she still followed Xiao Shu's advice, she was indeed a little too nervous during this time, and it was good to go out for a walk and relax.
She prepared some food that night, and the two of them got into a carriage and went to Xuannu Mountain early the next morning.
It is said that there is a legend in this Xuannu Mountain, it is the Nine Heavens Fairy who descended to this place, so it was named this name.
Chu Xinyun couldn't help but laugh after hearing this, this name is really simple and rude!
Although the name is a bit cheesy, the scenery along the way is still good, because it is the morning sun has not yet appeared, the air has a cool mist, and the lush leaves still carry last night's dewdrops, which looks very lively.
The two walked towards the mountain with a smile and a smile, Chu Xinyun stopped and stopped all the way, and from time to time he also entered the forest to take a look, looking very interested, while discussing with Xiao Shu where to wait for lunch.
"Let's go to the top of the mountain, there are a lot of rocks there, maybe we can find a good place."
"Yes."
Chu Xinyun happily agreed, sniffing the fresh air in the forest, she suddenly had a feeling that she had been washed from the inside out.
The mountains and forests here are different from those in my previous life, and everything here is a masterpiece of nature, which makes people feel comfortable looking at it.
Seeing that Chu Xinyun was in good spirits, Xiao Shu finally breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't bring Xiao Yun here today just to relax, but to have something else to do.
While Chu Xinyun was not paying attention, he gestured to the secret guard who was hiding on the side, and the latter turned around and left.
On the other side, Zhao County's order also came towards Xuannu Mountain.
He was dressed in light-colored civilian clothes, and his hair was neatly trimmed, so he was afraid that if he really met someone high, he would look a little more imageful.
"My lord, do you really want us to follow?" The official on the side was a little puzzled, you must know that this new adult is a very cautious person, and he will let them follow wherever he goes on weekdays, and today is the sun coming out of the west.
"It's okay, you just wait for me at the bottom of the mountain. By the way, if I haven't come down the mountain for an hour, then send someone to find me."
Zhao Xian Ling had actually checked the matter of Xuannu Mountain yesterday, and finally put his mind at ease when he was sure that there were no large beasts in this mountain, but he was naturally bold and cautious, although he told the officials not to follow, but he still couldn't help but order.
What if you are in any danger?
After taking care of everything, he straightened his clothes and walked up the hill, and the officials watched as their lords disappeared into the mist.
Zhao Xianling looked around while walking, and found that the scenery of this Xuannu Mountain was really good, and everything was growing vigorously.
