Chapter 182: The Secret of the Village
Gu Liusheng glanced at Yu Hong, and then at the old village chief.
After the eyeballs turned a little in a circle.
Then he said, "I'll tell you the truth, we're not tourists.
Rather, it was an expedition sent down from above, and we got accurate information.
It is said that there is an archaeological and cultural heritage of certain historical significance in this desert.
So, we need your cooperation, otherwise, if we fail this mission.
Go back and report the matter to the top......
You're obstructing your official business! ”
Yu Hong and Lu Feng held back a smile in their mouths and stood behind Gu Liusheng.
Just looked at himself there and talked serious nonsense.
The old village chief was really stunned by Gu Liusheng's bluffing.
Immediately trembling with fright, he said, "You...... Don't frame me.
Don't look at my age, but when I was young, I also saw the world. ”
Seeing him like this, Gu Liusheng became more and more confident, and said directly: "Do you need us all to prove our identities?"
Wait a minute, I'll call our boss.
Let him tell you personally. ”
While speaking, Gu Liusheng really took out his mobile phone and dialed a number.
The phone was quickly connected, and Gu Liusheng pretended to say, "Hello Professor Wu, I'm Xiao Gu!"
Yes, we had some minor troubles during this archaeological mission.
The local people refuse to believe in the identity of our archaeologists.
I'd like to ask you to prove our identity to us! ”
Gu Liusheng was saying this, and Wu Canbin on the other end of the phone at this moment.
was also at a loss when he answered the phone at the beginning, and then after hearing Gu Liusheng say this.
Clearly cooperated: "Then you give them the phone!" ”
Gu Liusheng nodded, then handed the mobile phone to the old village chief and said, "This matter can only be told to you alone."
Because this involves state secrets, if it is leaked, I am afraid it will not be good for us? ”
The old village chief listened, nodded immediately, and then took the phone.
I don't know what Wu Canbin told him.
I saw that the old village chief was then convinced.
kept nodding, and about two minutes later, the old village chief returned the phone to Gu Liusheng.
Then he said, "I'm sorry, it's not good for us."
If you want to go into the desert, you will not need camels and guides.
But our old guide here passed away last year.
Only a teenage girl doll was left, I'm afraid she can't do it!
The doll had never been out of the village, let alone the desert. ”
When Gu Liusheng heard this, he retreated and asked, "Then does he have a camel at home?" ”
The old village chief immediately nodded and said, "There are three camels.
But they're all too thin, and I don't know if I can go into the desert anymore.
Why don't I take you there? ”
Yu Hong suddenly interjected: "That's okay, why don't you take us to have a look!" ”
As he spoke, the group followed the old village chief to the house of the female doll who raised camels he mentioned.
The door was broken, and a few people didn't even have to knock on it.
At this moment a little girl came out of the house.
It was the first time she had seen so many people, and the little girl seemed a little cramped and nervous.
Sun Xiaoan stepped forward and said hello with a smile: "Hello, I'm Sun Xiaoan." ”
The little girl hurriedly wiped the white flour on her hands.
Then he took Sun Xiao'an's hand and said, "My name is Cuicui." ”
The old village chief said: "Cuicui, where are your camels? ”
As soon as Cuicui heard the old village chief ask the camel, she immediately took a few steps back with some caution.
Then he said in a trembling voice: "Village Chief, this camel is the last thought left to me by my father......"
As she spoke, she suddenly began to cry.
Gu Liusheng was also stunned, then looked at her and said, "Don't be afraid, we are not here to ask you for camels."
It's borrowed, and we'll pay it back to you when we run out. ”
Cuicui glanced at Gu Liusheng, and said nervously with her sleeves, "You guys...... Are you going into the desert? ”
Gu Liusheng nodded, but he didn't expect Cuicui to cry and say, "You take them to the desert, what's the difference between me and asking for them?"
They're skinny and skinny, and they can't go down to the desert at all, and you're asking for their lives.
If they die in the desert, what will you give me back? ”
The old village chief lowered his head and refused to allow it, Sun Xiaoan hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Don't cry, we don't have to borrow."
You are their master, and we must respect your opinion. ”
As soon as Sun Xiaoan finished speaking, Cuicui immediately said: "Don't borrow." ”
Don't look over your head and don't want to look at anyone again.
Sun Xiaoan turned around and glanced at Gu Liusheng.
At this time, Yu Hong suddenly stepped forward and looked at Cuicui.
Softly said, "I heard that your father is a guide, right?" ”
Cuicui choked and nodded, and then heard Yu Hong say again: "Then have you ever wondered what your father raised camels for?"
Is it really just to leave you with a memory? ”
Cuicui was stunned for a moment, and suddenly glanced at Yu Hong in great surprise.
At this time, Yu Hong continued: "Obviously not, right?
She wants to use those camels to make money to make you live a good life, right?
But now that you are guarding the camels, would rather let them die in idleness than let them fulfill your father's wish? ”
Cuicui stopped crying and whispered, "Really? ”
In exchange, Yu Hong nodded firmly.
So I saw Cuicui and said, "Then you come with me!" ”
When Cuicui turned around, Yu Hong smiled at Gu Liusheng.
At this time, several people followed Cuicui to the backyard.
There is a path in the backyard, the width of which can only accommodate the next person walking.
The rest is the camel shed.
When the camels heard the sound, they thought Cuicui had come to bring them food.
They poked their heads out.
Sure enough, just as Cuicui and the old village chief said.
These camels are so thin that they have almost taken off their likeness.
Gu Liusheng glanced at Yu Hong, and then said in a low voice, "Do you think these camels are usable?" ”
Yu Hong frowned and said, "Something is better than nothing." ”
As he spoke, he saw Yu Hong and immediately said, "Cuicui, right?"
So we don't borrow any of these camels......"
As soon as Yu Hong finished speaking, Gu Liusheng and the others, including the old village chief, Genzi and Cuicui, all looked at him.
But he told him to speak loudly, and then said, "We have rented all these camels."
We give you the rent and the deposit, and if we can't get the camel back in good condition.
Then we will give you all the rent.
What do you think? ”
Cuicui was stunned, and Meng Haochuan hurriedly added: "The rent is 20,000 yuan and the deposit is 50,000 yuan, is it okay?" ”
As soon as Meng Haochuan finished speaking, Gu Liusheng immediately glared at him.
He pursed his lips and closed his mouth.
At this time, Sun Xiaoan silently retreated to his side, typed on his mobile phone and said to him: "Are you crazy? As soon as you open your mouth, it's 70,000?
Where are we going out with so much cash this time? ”
Meng Haochuan realized that he had lost his words just now, so he hurriedly wanted to open his mouth to redeem it.
Sun Xiaoan hurriedly grabbed him and shook his head lowly.
Then he typed, "Do you want to be untrustworthy?"
When the time comes, it will be even more impossible to borrow camels. ”
Meng Haochuan closed his mouth at this time.
At this time, Yu Hong could only bite the bullet and continued: "Cuicui, do you want to go to the outside world to see?"
This Xiao Gu's family is very rich, and if you want, he can arrange for you to study now.
It's okay to study abroad, you don't want to stay here for the rest of your life, right? ”
I have to say that the sky-high price offered by Meng Haochuan actually did not completely attract Cuicui.
But Yu Hong's conditions are very tempting.
I saw Cuicui immediately lowered her head and looked at her toes and said, "I really ...... Is it possible to go to school and learn knowledge? ”
Gu Liusheng also immediately said: "Of course you can." ”
Cuicui cautiously raised her head and was silent for about three or four minutes.
In the end, he compromised: "I don't want to go abroad, but I want to study."
Any school in the country is fine. ”
Gu Liusheng immediately chuckled, then took out a business card from his arms and handed it to Cuicui.
Then he said, "Follow the address above, go find this person above."
He'll take care of everything for you.
You don't have to worry about tuition, we can fund you.
Also, we didn't bring that much money with us when we went out this time.
So you take the 30,000 first.
When you meet the person on this business card, he will naturally give you the remaining 40,000 yuan. ”
Cui Cui Xu had never seen so much money.
Holding a thick handful of money in his hand, he was a little at a loss for a while.
The old village chief and Genzi stood silently aside, their eyes glued to the money in Cuicui's hand.
Sun Xiaoan noticed this detail and immediately poked Gu Liusheng.
Gu Liusheng subconsciously turned around and saw the two people.
Then his eyes narrowed slightly, and he said to Cuicui: "If you want to go, go as soon as possible!"
We're watching you go. ”
Cuicui was stunned, but agreed anyway.
Then he turned around and walked to the front yard, and then the old village chief suddenly said: "Cuicui can't get out of the village." ”
As soon as the abrupt and muffled voice sounded, everyone stopped.
Meng Haochuan also thought that the old village chief was plotting to get the money in Cuicui's hand.
immediately said: "Cuicui, don't be afraid, we will watch you go."
I see who dares to make it difficult for you. ”
The old village chief suddenly laughed: "It's hard for her?
That's not us, that's God who can't do anything for her! ”
"What do you mean? Make the words clear. ”
Meng Haochuan immediately pulled up the collar of the old village's clothes.
But seeing the old village chief, he smiled and said, "We didn't mean to let her go.
It's just that Cuicui never goes out, so she may not know yet!
The people in our village have to stay in this village for the rest of their lives.
Otherwise, if someone who shouldn't have gone out has gone out...... There is only one dead end. ”
Listening to the old village chief's miraculous words, everyone was stunned.
Cuicui held the money in her hand tightly, and suddenly said in a low voice and extremely quiet: "Let's go to the front yard and talk!" ”
With that, she turned around and left first.
A few people returned to the front yard and sat around the table.
I only heard the old village chief say, "You must have been curious, right?
Our village is not far from the town, why don't we have electricity.
Also, this gentleman once asked my wife about the child, right?
In fact, these are not difficult to answer.
Our village has been here for thousands of years.
Thousands of years ago, the desert was a sea.
We used to be a small subsistence fishing village here.
Later, for some reason, suddenly one day the sea was replaced by a desert.
As a result, the villagers who originally relied on the sea to eat the sea lost the sea they relied on for their survival overnight.
But that's not the worst of it.
The worst thing is that they find out that they have a disease.
As soon as you leave the village, someone will die.
They don't understand why, and they can't do anything about it.
It wasn't until my generation that the situation got worse and worse.
We can't reproduce any more, why do the Neko couple love that child so much......"
"Is it because that child is the only one in the village at the moment?"
Sun Xiaoan pursed his lips and said suddenly.
Neko nodded heavily and said, "That's right, my doll is the only doll in this village."
And not only that, but when she was five years old, she accidentally ran out of the village.
We were all very scared, and I brought her back.
Probably because I didn't run far, I only had one serious illness.
But she wasn't affected in any way......"
Gu Liusheng was stunned, and then said, "What do you mean......
In the entire village, she is the only one who can leave the village and will not have any influence? ”
Genzi nodded again, and the old village chief continued: "For so many years, there have only been two such people in our village.
One is her, and the last one is ...... It's me.
My wife can't go out, so naturally I have to stay, but some daily shopping in the village.
I'm in charge of it, otherwise the whole village will be struggling.
This doll is our hope and the hope of the Neko family.
Later, I took her out of the village several times and found that she was indeed free to enter and leave the village.
Only then did I completely put my mind at ease. ”
Gu Liusheng and Yu Hong glanced at each other, but saw Cuicui on the side suddenly crying in a low voice.
The 30,000 yuan in his hand immediately slipped to the ground.
Sun Xiaoan hurriedly walked over and hugged her. The village chief then said, "Okay, we've all said what needs to be said."
The rest of you ...... Communicate with Cuicui yourself! ”
After speaking, the old village chief got up and left Cuicui's house.
Neko sat on the sidelines, clearly not planning to leave.
Gu Liusheng glanced at him and knew that he must have something to say.
So he asked, "What?" Are you okay? ”
Genzi nodded and said, "Don't you have camels now?"
Is there still a need for a guide? Do you think I can do it? ”
"You?"
This time it was Yu Hong who spoke.
Neko immediately nodded and said, "Yes, it's me."
I actually followed Cuicui's father into the desert a few years ago.
I've heard Cuicui's dad say it! In the deepest part of the desert, there is a palace! ”
Genzi's words did draw the attention of those people.
I saw Lu Feng immediately said: "Palace? Are you sure? ”
Neko nodded and said, "I'm sure!"
I'm sure that's what Daddy told me, but I haven't seen it with my own eyes. ”
As she spoke, Neko suddenly grinned.
Cuicui suddenly raised her head and said, "I gave you the camel."
But I have one condition. ”
Gu Liusheng and the others suddenly looked at Cuicui at this moment.
Then I heard Cuicui say, "I'm going to follow you into that desert too."
My dad once told me that there was a huge secret in the depths of the desert. ”
