Chapter 256: A small shop on the edge of the village
There is only one road to the southeast to enter this village, which is the peak where Makihara and the others are located. Sandwiched between the two mountains, a two-meter-wide stone staircase is not very steep, but it is only accessible to large livestock such as mules and horses, and it is estimated that it is difficult for poultry to climb the 30-meter-high stairs. From this point of view, it is estimated that there will not even be a farm tractor in this Zhaojia Village.
"Little brother, what is that?" Jiang Bixue raised her head and asked.
This is a rocky mountain, after thousands of years of weathering, the mountain is full of large and small crevices, except for a few trees at the top and some wild grass between the crevices, the whole mountain is almost bare. The place where Jiang Bixue pointed was one of the stone cracks, the edge of the stone crack was overgrown with weeds, and there was even an arm-thick pine and cypress at the bottom, leaning out most of its body, the shape was crooked, bathed in a line of residual light. It attracted Jiang Bixue's attention, mainly because there were a few strands of cloth hanging on the pine and cypress, and after the wind and rain, although the cloth was very dilapidated, it could be faintly seen that it was a piece of clothing.
"Forget it, don't guess!" Makihara reminded.
"Guess?" Jiang Bixue was still staring at the place tightly, thinking for a long time, and suddenly realized: "That's a shroud, a dead man's clothes?" ”
"Nonsense, this is the southeast location, the place of wind burial!" Long Ling'er said, "Do you know what a wind burial is?" The traditional wind burial customs include cliff burials, tree burials, and the most frightening is the Tibetan burial customs in the Kangding area of Ganzi Prefecture. After death, people hang on the wall and let the wind and rain blow, like a puppet, commonly known as 'air drying', but here it is better, it seems to hang the corpse into the crack of the stone! ”
When Xia Xue heard this, her body couldn't help but tremble, she didn't even dare to raise her head, and subconsciously grabbed Mu Yuan's arm.
"Sister Ling'er, please, don't say it!" Jiang Danxin begged, "It's scary enough here, if you roll down the stone steps in a restless way, your life will be gone!" ”
"Makes sense, makes sense!" Fu Wei echoed, and couldn't help but clasp his hands together and mutter, "Amitabha, gods bless!" We are just passing through, if there is any offense, please forgive me, please forgive me! ”
"My dear, you Chinese customs and habits are really strange!" Mark said.
"Strange? As long as you follow that stinky boy's ass, there's nothing that isn't weird! Ling Xin complained.
"Sister, don't blame the old man for everything!" Ling Xing said, "If you hadn't come along, we would have arrived in Rongcheng by now, drinking tea, taking a bubble bath, and visiting the former residences of celebrities, which is not as comfortable as here!" ”
"You think beautifully, I'm too lazy to bring you this big light bulb! If you dare to talk more, I will hang you in the crack of the stone with my own hands!" ”
"Okay!" Jiang Bixue clapped her hands, "I can see it by the way!" ”
"Silly and bold!" Ling Xing said viciously, "Believe it or not, I tied you up and hung you in!" ”
"Don't believe it!" Jiang Bixue shrugged her shoulders and directly put Ling Xing aside.
"You ......" Ling Xin was suffocated, and the internal injuries were about to come out.
"Third child, forget it!" Zheng Bu patted Ling Xing's shoulder and comforted: "Changteng Ghost School knows, accompany the top three haunted houses in the city, it is said that this girl went in to pretend to be a ghost, and scared the staff to pee their pants!" Compare courage with her, let's not think about it in this life! ”
After going down the mountain and walking a few miles, the group entered the village, but to everyone's surprise, the first family in the village actually hung the guise of a hotel. This is a small farmhouse courtyard, with the most typical pattern of the northern courtyard, but these houses are basically made of wood, although it looks a little old from the outside, but the courtyard is very elegantly arranged. In front of the courtyard is a rice field and vegetable garden, and some flowers and trees are planted around the courtyard, and some pastoral paintings are even painted on the outer walls of the fence and wooden houses.
"There's an inn in this place?" Zheng Bu said in surprise.
"Mu Yuan, you go in and investigate, if there is enough room, we will settle down here!" Yi Youdao commanded.
Mu Yuan and Luo Xuanren walked over, and before they reached the fence door, a dog bark came out of the yard, and then a young man in his thirties walked out, he was wearing an earthy gray Tang costume, at first glance he looked like a peasant family, but his temperament was not bad, fair skin, short hair, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a kind complexion, like an intellectual with a high culture.
"Are you going to stay in a hotel?" The young man pulled up the apron around his waist and wiped his hand.
"Yes!" Luo Qiren nodded, "We are travel friends, passing through here, there are sixteen people, do you have enough room here?" ”
"Yes!" The young man nodded, and quickly opened the fence door, "Please come in quickly!" ”
"How do you calculate the price?" Makihara asked.
"According to the head of the person, 100 yuan per person, including accommodation and three meals! Three meals are full, breakfast is relatively simple, lunch and dinner have fish and meat......" The young man was stunned halfway through speaking, and looked Mu Yuan up and down with a look of disbelief.
"What's wrong?" Luo Qiren asked strangely.
"I didn't ...... Not much! The young man shook his head solemnly, and carefully looked at the people on the side of the road, especially the crayfish, and stared at them for half a minute, before he clapped his hands and exclaimed in surprise: "You...... You are Mu Yuan, that is Xiao Xiaxia! ”
"You know us?"
"How can you not know it, you only watched TV two days ago, you are the first in the finals!" The young man said excitedly, "I didn't expect to see you at the door of my house, quick, quick, please come in!" The accommodation fee is all free, and you will not be charged a penny! ”
"That's not good, the money will definitely be given!"
"Okay, okay, whatever, please come in!" After the young man finished speaking, he ran to the side of the road to help the crayfish get the bag, and the action was the same as grabbing, "Miss Xiao, you are a big star, our family of three likes you and Mr. Mu's magic super much, and we are your die-hard fans!" ”
After the young people let everyone into the small courtyard, they moved out the tables and stools in a hurry, and the table was full of tea and sweets.
"Don't be busy, you're too polite, we're just tourists staying in the hotel!" Mu Yuan really couldn't stand it anymore, "Excuse me, what do you call you?" ”
"Yo, look at my brain, I'm so excited today!" The young man patted his head, "My name is Fang Zhilin!" ”
"At that time, as soon as I knew and the flavor of soup, I said that the news came for Lin!" Tan Xiaosheng chanted a poem.
This poem comes from Xin Qiji's "Partridge Sky • Defeat Chess Fu Plum Rain", the original text is: Indifference and light yin can't be removed. Jiangnan drizzle ripe yellow plum. There is no intention to go east on the day, and it has been angry and frightened by the mines. Cloud pillar base, water tower. Luo Yi exhausted the ashes. At that time, as soon as I knew and the soup, I said that the news came to Lin.
"Old man, it's really amazing!" Fang Zhilin gave a thumbs up, "This name was given by my grandfather, he is an old pedant, he usually plays chess, I was born in June, so he had a whim and took out my name from the last sentence!" ”
"Brother Fang is not a local?" Mu Yuan asked, "Listening to your accent, it seems that you are from Yanjing, how can you settle in such a small place?" ”
"That's right, I'm a native of Yanjing, and so is my wife!" Fang Zhilin nodded, "But we don't settle down either, we just come here to live for a period of time every year, and it's all because of my wife!" ”
