Saint Ann (22)

Qiyin's vision of people is not bad, the people in this village are indeed not unusual, and the young man is not lying.

It's just that this hairpin is too strange to appear here, and it is really against the peace.

"Haven't you seen anyone else here?" Qiyin asked again without giving up.

The young man shook his head suspiciously, and then asked the people in the village again, "No, our village has always been these people. ”

"Oh." Qiyin nodded thoughtfully, it seems that the clue is broken here again.

And this wooden hairpin doesn't mean anything, even if a stranger has appeared, it doesn't mean that this hairpin is the original master's.

The road out of the village was bumpy, there were weeds all the way, and it was clear that the people in the village did not go out very often. If it weren't for the fact that I had to purchase daily necessities such as salt and soy sauce, I am afraid that I would not even know the way out.

As the young man walked, he said with difficulty, "I listen, I heard that people outside live a very, very wealthy life. Most of them can eat well, eat rice, wear silk, and don't know if I will be able to live such a life in the future. ”

Qiyin replied very indifferently: "Not everyone lives this kind of life, and there are many places where they can't eat enough and don't have warm clothes. You can hunt to make a living, and some of you can't even afford to eat meat. ”

"Meat, you can't afford to eat meat?" The young man was surprised.

They have been hunting for a living for generations, and they have grown up eating meat since childhood, so that meat is not worth much in their eyes, and they also think that meat is very ordinary for people outside.

As a result, they often exchange the most meat for the least amount of rice, because the sun is not abundant in the mountains, and the crops do not grow well.

"Yes, not only can't you afford meat, but you can't afford rice. Life is as hard as you are. Qiyin knows this kind of life too well, so when he talks about this, his tone is a little sad.

She's been away from those days for a long time, and now that she thinks about it, it feels like yesterday.

Xu Zi'an tugged at her sleeves, her fingertips couldn't help but whiten, and a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes.

The young man scratched his head honestly, brushed aside the branches in front of him, and said, "In the past, when we used to exchange meat for rice, they said that meat was not valuable, and I thought it was ......."

Qiyin sneered and said, "You have been deceived, meat is a good thing, but it also depends on where it is." The next time you change something, find a reliable businessman. ”

"Me! I, I won't change with that shopkeeper next time! The young man angrily hammered the tree next to him, and the trunk shook by his hammer.

I walked for most of the day, and I haven't walked out of the woods yet.

"How much longer?" Xu Zi'an asked.

Young man: "Also, in a little while, over the hill, it's almost there." ”

It's easier said than done.

It's going to take a day to get out of the mountains, right?

Finally, when it was dark, the three of them arrived on the official road.

Qiyin stretched his waist, took out a few pieces of broken silver from his waist bag, and threw them to the young man, "Thank you!" ”

"This, this is too much! I'm just, just a gesture, no, it's not worth it! The young man was so anxious that his face turned red and he wanted to return the money.

Qiyin waved his hand, "If I say it's worth it, it's worth it, after all, it's also a waste of your day's time." ”

"Remember, have a better vision in the future, don't be deceived again!"
