Chapter 90: The Village
Han Dazhi: They also saw it.
But they are also preoccupied.
It looks like the place is heavily guarded, and they can't be allowed to enter.
When you see it, you have to give it a try.
I really didn't eat this way, and I begged a little bit.
Everyone knows that you can't have a face at this time.
The big guy deliberated.
Didn't bring a group of people all at once.
When people see so many people, they can only open the door to have ghosts.
I'm afraid it's impossible for anyone to show their heads.
So Han Dazhi, Mrs. Wang, plus Wang Pengfei and Wang Xiaoqing, plus a five-year-old Duobao.
can be regarded as three generations of old, middle and young people, plus an obvious scholar, to win the trust of people.
The five of them settled down and rested on the spot a mile from the village.
They started going to the village.
It didn't take long to get there.
It was the first time for Wang Xiaoqing to see such a magnificent tulou up close.
It's not at all like I imagined.
She patronizes in modern times to save money and study, how can she have the time and financial resources to travel.
So these so-called Hakka tulou, she has seen it on the computer.
Now it's a glimpse of what it's really like.
This kind of tulou is carefully selected site, coupled with scientific design, materials and construction methods are inseparable.
When she walked up, she saw the walls of the tulou, thick at the bottom and thin at the top, and the thick place was one and a half meters, but the height was seven meters high.
It should be that when ramming, a deep and large wall ditch should be dug in the wall foundation, tamped in it, buried in a large stone as the base, and then built the wall foundation with stones and mortar.
The walls are then rammed with plywood panels.
The raw materials of the earthen wall are generally local clayey laterite, mixed with an appropriate amount of small stones and lime, repeatedly mashed, mixed well, and made into the commonly known "cooked soil".
Some key positions should also be mixed with an appropriate amount of sticky rice and brown sugar to increase its stickiness.
When ramming, fir branches or bamboo pieces should be buried in the middle of the earthen wall as "wall bones" to increase its tensile force.
In this way, after repeated ramming, an earthen wall like steel and concrete was built, and a layer of weatherproof and eroded lime was smeared on the outside, so it was extremely strong and had good windproof and earthquake resistance.
It is said that an earthquake of magnitude 8 will not shake the foundation of such a building.
The one in front of me should be a version of the tulou.
They came to the gate of the tulou.
Han Dazhi went up and knocked on the door.
Wang Xiaoqing looked at the gate.
The door frame and threshold of the tulou gate are all stones, and the door panel is about 10 cm thick.
Several holes with bamboo tubes were dug diagonally into the gate, so that if bandits attacked the door, arrows could be shot down and boiling water could be poured down.
Theoretically, some of the tulou gates are also equipped with fireproof water tanks and water tanks, if the enemy sets fire to the door, as long as the switch is pressed, the water will go down the door to extinguish the fire and protect the door.
"Who?"
Someone answered the door.
"We were passing by, and we came up to ask for a sip of water. Please make it easier for folks. ”
It was Wang Pengju who responded.
After all, he is a reader, and if he chews a little bit, people will also look at it.
No matter how you say it, people who read books should be more popular.
Wang Xiaoqing and the others stood at the door, and after a while, someone opened the door.
"Ouch, where are you from?"
The old man who opened the door looked to be in his sixties, with a white beard and hair, but he was in good spirits, and he was followed by a dozen strong men, holding sticks, knives and axes in their hands, and he didn't look easy to mess with.
People are clearly telling them not to move their minds, if you dare to move, you will be allowed to have no return.
Wang Pengfei immediately bowed his hand.
"This old man, we escaped from Fengtian City, passing by here, I want to ask for a drink, rest, I don't know if the old man can make it convenient. We'll be on the road early tomorrow morning, and we'll never bother the folks. ”
Wang Pengfei said it with full sincerity, of course, because he was telling the truth.
The old man sighed deeply when he heard this, and obviously looked at them with a little less guard, probably because Wang Pengfei's bookish anger was too heavy.
No one can mistake this for a scholar.
"Ah Hong, fill these people with some water bladders and bring some rice cakes, this gentleman, I'm really sorry, there are people in the village who are seriously ill, and it's really inconvenient to entertain a few people to stay overnight. I'm sorry. These things are small minds. ”
People said very politely, this is polite to people, and it really shows that the old man's family is obviously experiencing something.
Wang Xiaoqing guessed that the one in front of him was probably the patriarch in this tulou.
You must know that according to the characteristics of tulou, people who generally live in groups are members of a family, so they will live in this way.
The rights of the patriarch are even more important than that of a county official.
If the county magistrate can't control it, the patriarch can.
Wang Xiaoqing's heart moved.
This village is obviously close to mountains and rivers, and the conditions here are much better than their village, and it is obvious that such a defense will not suffer too many military disasters.
Looking at the faces of these people, they are also ruddy and insufficient, but they are definitely not yellow and thin.
That's how there is a reserve of food.
And dare to be so generous to send water and food! I just don't be afraid of you making trouble.
Of course, it also proves that people have food.
It's different.
The eyes are lit up, isn't that a natural excuse?
"Uncle, I don't know what disease the seriously ill people in the village have? Maybe we can help. ”
Wang Xiaoqing is inconvenient to say that he is a child now, and strangers show up to recommend themselves, and people will treat you as a monster.
Even if you don't think of it as an outlier, it's impossible to listen to her.
Lack of confidence.
So she pulled Wang Pengfei.
My father is not stupid, but he is too angry.
But definitely enough brains.
The father and daughter have a dozen lawsuits.
Wang Pengfei understood.
Girl, this is in mind.
The old man was stunned.
Ordinary people are reluctant to rush to pay attention to such a thing, and these people actually ask like this!
The dead beggars are going to come to their stockade?
Could it be that there is some kind of ghost in mind!
"Oh, what is this gentleman's last name? Could it be that you have a doctor? ”
As soon as they looked at Wang Pengfei's dress, they knew that they were refugees fleeing the famine.
They have all fled the famine, how can there be a doctor.
In the middle of nowhere, there is not even a doctor in a village.
Some of the doctors who are capable have gone to the county and the city to sit in the court, how can they be in the village, and besides, the doctors can make a living no matter how poor they are.
Even if there is a war anywhere, it has nothing to do with them.
This is to see that they have food, and I want to be tempted.
"Uncle, I won't tell you, there is really a doctor in our village, if you don't believe it, just take a look! On the way, we fled the famine, and met the famine of Huohuo, look at my wound, if we didn't have to be saved by the little doctor! The grass on my grave is tall long ago. ”
Han Dazhi understood as soon as Wang Pengfei opened his mouth just now.
None of them are stupid.
As soon as he lifted up his clothes.
It's better to say anything than to see what is actually believable.
Take yourself as evidence.
Thanks to the hot weather, I also wore less.
As soon as he lifted his clothes, the old man and a dozen men gasped.
It's also scary.
With three scars like ugly centipedes, anyone can see how scary this injury was at the beginning.
Don't complain about Wang Xiaoqing, there is really no way to do this craft.
Before the old lady's hospital appeared, it was good to be able to do this.
