Volume 1 A Small Mountain Village in the Cracks Chapter 35 Human Meat Barbecue
When the red sun was in the sky, the four big men finally drove an ox cart into the bath valley.
The faces of these four people were full of exhaustion, and the clothes on their bodies were torn in many places, and even the big scalper who was pulling the cart was limping, as if injured. After all, it was a night road, and where was there any flat road in the mountains? Stumbling was inevitable.
The four of them had just entered the bath and had not yet reached the square in front of the village, when they were spotted by a sharp eye, and the news of their arrival was transmitted to the village.
Although the big boss was stopped by everyone last night, after experiencing that farce, where can everyone forget Lijia Village?
There are not many people in Yuhuang Ao, these village chiefs and sect leaders got up early to help clean up the square, just now they were still discussing what the outcome of Lijia Village would be, after all, according to the previous situation, the big boss was so angry, and the collapse of Lijia Village was inevitable.
What is strange is that after being full of wine and food last night, the big boss seemed to have forgotten about Lijia Village, and did not send someone to exterminate Lijia Village overnight, which is a bit abnormal.
In fact, it is not normal only because Valan Village has now changed from the overlord to the younger brother, and the thinking of these village chiefs has not yet changed, so it feels strange.
The big boss is not stupid, didn't he really see the provocation of the head of Guqian Village? It's just that as a junior brother, he should think about what the boss thinks, worry about what the boss is worried about, and be angry with the boss.
The old lady had already shown his dissatisfaction last night, and if he didn't get angry at all, would he still be the way a little brother should be? Therefore, the big boss was angry, and the more the village chief of Guqian Village persuaded him, the more angry he became. But after being full of wine and food, the old lady was tired and tired, so she had already gone back first.
What to do?
Could it be that as a junior brother, he didn't even ask for instructions, so he went to help the boss clean up the portal? Even if the other junior brother is disrespectful, the boss should speak first, how can the younger brother make decisions on behalf of the boss?
Therefore, as soon as he heard that someone was coming from Lijia Village at this time, the big boss immediately went to serve in front of the old lady, in case the boss needed manpower, it was not suitable for his little brother not to be around.
At this time, the old lady was not only the big boss by his side, but also the second head of the village chief Zhou and the village chief of Guqian Village.
I only heard the head of Guqian Village say: "Master, you are a guest from afar, it is not appropriate to hang Lijia Village like this, and when Lijia Village sent the corpse to Valan Village, everyone saw it." ”
Although everyone knows that this matter was done by Yuhuangao at the instruction of Lijiacun, it is one thing to know that it is another thing to say it, not to mention that now Yuhuangao and Valanzhai are not hostile relations, and the past grievances should not be mentioned or mentioned.
The old lady's eyes narrowed slightly when she heard this, and she looked at the head of Guqian Village, but when she thought of his uncle's personality, she lowered her head in relief. With such an uncle who can't figure it out, how much better can the nephew be?
He doesn't ask how strong this person is, as long as he knows a little more than his uncle, and knows a little gratitude, he will be worthy of the little affection in his heart.
Whether it is the old lady or the two village owners, they are all seasoned, and they naturally will not accept this, but the village chief Zhou is confused, and now when he heard the words of the village chief of Guqian Village, he hurriedly explained: "We have nothing to do with Lijia Village. ”
When the old lady heard this, she glared at her son viciously, and after seeing that this uncompetitive son was so frightened that he lowered his head, he closed his eyes and leaned on the Taishi's chair.
As for the discussion in the Zhou Mansion, the dogs and others outside naturally didn't know, and at this time, they were gathering together and cautiously looking at the village chiefs and sect leaders around them who were helping to work.
These people were talking about the events of last night, and they didn't deliberately lower their voices, but rather a little louder, as if they were deliberately letting them hear.
A villager leaned next to Goudan and said in a low voice: "Brother Goudan, listening to this meaning, it seems that Valanzhai has bowed its head to Yuhuangao, so are we ......?"
Although he didn't finish his words, everyone understood the meaning. After all, Lijia Village is a Wallan village that was offended by helping Yuhuangao do things, and now that the two families have reconciled, will they be fine?
Goudan shook his head and didn't speak, after all, Lijia Village is not from the camp of Yuhuangao, before Yuhuangao asked them to send the corpse to Hualanzhai, the two villages didn't even have much intersection, and they didn't even nod their heads. In this case, he really doesn't know what will happen to him and others.
Besides, listening to the meaning of these people, it seems that the old man Zhou was not very happy last night, in case Yu Huangao does not admit the account, can he and the others still find the old man to reason?
After the tea time, the two masters finally walked out of Yuhuang Pass in a menacing manner, and accompanied the two of them out, as well as the head of Guqian Village.
The sun was shining, and the mist that swirled in the mountains finally gradually dispersed under the illumination of the sun. At this time, Tang Yi did not continue to run over the mountains and mountains, he was already so hungry that he couldn't walk.
If it is a true martial arts realm powerhouse like Li Laosan, it is not said that he does not eat for one or two meals, or he is no different from a normal person if he is hungry for two or three days. But Tang Yi is different, he is weak without eating, and now he has been running wildly for more than ten hours without eating, and he is already hungry and dizzy, and his limbs are weak.
Tang Yi had been running north for four or five hours, but he couldn't say that it was a village, and he didn't even see a decent house. However, this is not surprising, after all, there are many demon beasts in the 100,000 mountains, unless people who are extremely confident in their own strength, most of them will choose to live in the village, so that they can feel safe.
Moreover, the village consciousness of the Shili and Eight Townships ethnic groups is very strong, unless the people who were expelled from the village by the Kaige family, few people will choose to live outside the village, and even if there are, they will choose a place near the village like Li Laosan.
In fact, Tang Yi's position at this time was not far from Yuhuang Pass, and it could even be said that it was very close, and when he turned over the mountain under his feet, there was Yuhuang Pass. It's just that Tang Yi didn't know the road, and second, he was so hungry that he couldn't walk, so he touched a few fish in the nearby stream, lit a fire and roasted them.
It's just that Tang Yi's cooking skills are really not good, only one of the twenty-three fish is grilled just right, and the other twenty-two are either half-cooked or burnt.
Tang Yi ate seventeen or eighteen fish, and after feeling that he was seven or eight points full, he did not eat the remaining four or five, but stuffed the half-baked fish into his arms, got up and climbed towards the top of the mountain.
Before he reached the top of the mountain, Tang Yi smelled a burst of aroma coming from the other side of the mountain, and the smell seemed to be the smell of barbecue. However, this person's cooking skills are much better than Tang Yi's, and the smell of the aroma alone makes Tang Yi's index finger move.
He hurried up to the top of the mountain.
There is a small village in the valley on the other side of the mountain, and the houses in the west of the village look much better, and the worst ones are made of wood, stone and adobe, and the big house in the center of the village is not like a thing in ten miles and eight villages. The roof of that house was made of green glazed tiles, and the walls were made of red bricks.
Apparently a big family in the village.
The more than 100 households in the east of the village are thatched houses, although the thatched houses look very new, but the thatched houses are only thatched houses after all, and even adobe houses cannot be compared.
There seemed to be some happy event in the big family, and at this time the house was full of red lanterns, and there was a festive atmosphere.
After Xu was happy, he also wanted to share with the poor people in the same village, so that the poor people were happy, so he held a barbecue banquet outside?
But no matter what, he felt that he seemed to be able to feast on it, so Tang Yi went down the mountain extremely quickly.
The chef in charge of the barbecue is extremely skilled, and the smell is even better than the barbecue he ate in his previous life, but he doesn't know what kind of meat is grilled, and it doesn't smell like lamb or pork belly.
Tang Yi's movements were extremely light, so no one noticed him when he went down to the mountain pass, and no one found his trace until he walked more than a hundred feet outside the crowd.
Seeing that someone was looking over, Tang Yi smiled and pointed to the barbecue, signaling that he also wanted to eat a piece, but the man just glanced at it and turned his head. There are many outsiders in the 100,000 mountains, and those people sometimes come to the village for a meal, and even the Waran Village is not without such outsiders.
Of course, all those who dare to enter the village are all people who are extremely confident in their own strength, so even Valanzhai is unwilling to provoke these people. However, these people will not eat for nothing, and most of them will leave some silver coins or less valuable materials on the demon beasts after eating.
At this time, there were many people around the fire, but Tang Yi didn't have much effort to squeeze in, these people seemed to be extremely polite, and once he squeezed forward, the person in front of him would automatically get out of the way.
This is not quite like a poor person who can't afford to eat, but after only a trace of doubt flashed in Tang Yi's mind, he shook his head and didn't care. Maybe the level of education in this village is higher than that of other villages?
After a short time, Tang Yi squeezed into the innermost part of the crowd, and at this time, these people in it had already taken the barbecue in their hands, and most of them didn't eat the barbecue, even if they ate it, they took a bite carefully, which looked like chewing wax.
Looking at their sad faces, Tang Yixin said, "Could it be that this barbecue just smells good, but in fact it tastes very bad?"
Tang Yi didn't pay any attention to these people holding the barbecue, but turned his head to look at the chef standing by the campfire. The chef was dressed in black, and he looked a little familiar, but Tang Yi only glanced at it slightly, and then his gaze turned to the chef's hands.
This person's movements are very skillful, and all kinds of seasonings are sprinkled very evenly, obviously a master who has been in charge for many years.
After a short time, the chef baked a large handful of meat skewers with bamboo skewers, and Tang Yi, who was standing at the front of the crowd, was fortunate to get one of them.
The chef had finished roasting the meat at hand, so he turned away from the campfire, as if to get it.
Tang Yi didn't rush to eat, but sniffed it first, but when he was about to take a bite, he suddenly heard a scream not far away, not the scream of an animal, but the scream of a person.
A more familiar voice followed.
"King, our village really doesn't mean to deal with the kings, we just practice shooting in order to hunt more demon beasts, really. Ah~" The last scream was very poignant, and it was obvious that he was being tortured inhumanly at this time.
The voice...... Who else could it be if it's not a dog?
