Chapter 22: A Village in the Mountains

"You baby, why are you so stubborn?" The uncle frowned and puffed on his cigarette pouch.

"Uncle, I can't feel at ease when I don't see yacon!" Li Ye sat up, his face full of sincerity.

"It's not that the uncle doesn't want to help you, but you people who have been obsessed, the uncle can't do anything, you know that a big man came over before...... Hey, forget it, don't talk about it. The uncle wanted to persuade Li Ye, but his mouth was so quick that he almost told the secret, and he hurriedly held it back.

The young man next to him was a little unbearable, and said, "Second uncle, you can help him, I look strange and pitiful!" ”

"Have you forgotten about the master of the Wang family?" The old man squinted and trembled when he spoke.

Li Ye probably understood when he heard this, a person came to look for yacon fruit before, and the uncle kindly gave it to him, but after the person took it, it had no effect, so he mistakenly thought that the uncle's fruit was fake, and came to find the uncle's bad luck.

"Uncle, don't worry, I'm not a person who doesn't distinguish between right and wrong, if this fruit is invalid, I will turn around and leave, and I will never embarrass Uncle." Li Ye patted his chest and promised.

"No, don't blame me for being ruthless, our old Qinshan Village can't stand the toss, it's not good to take care of yourself, and you really don't want to make extraneous branches!" The old man didn't move, took a puff of cigarette, and said.

"Second uncle, no, you look at it like this, let this little girl and Qin Er have a doll kiss, in this way, as Qin Er's son, you will naturally not harm this little girl, and this brother is not good to look for bad luck, what do you think?" The young man next to him still couldn't bear what happened to Li Ye, so he immediately persuaded him.

"Well, that's not bad, little baby, if you promise me to find you yacon." The uncle's frowning brows stretched and said.

"This ...... It's not that the younger generation doesn't want to, but I can't be the master! Li Ye shook his head, and he was even more reluctant in his heart, from later generations, he was very disgusted by the lives of parents such as dolls and the words of matchmakers.

When the old man heard Li Ye's words, he was angry, and he got up and was about to drive Li Ye away: "You can't be the master?" If you can't be the master, let me get out quickly, this is not good, that is not good, is it only if I send the fruit to you? ”

Li Ye didn't care about his uncle's pull, thought about it, and asked quietly, "Uncle, is it okay for me to live in this Qinjia Village for a while?" ”

"Yes, you sleep, none of the beds here will let you sleep, you have to sleep, get out and sleep!" The uncle continued to push Li Ye, wanting to drive Li Ye out.

"Thank you, uncle, I'll leave now." Li Ye picked up Xiao Tian'er on his back and walked and disappeared into the snowflakes in the sky.

…………

"Second uncle, don't be angry, I don't think it's easy for Brother Li, that's not what I mean!" The young man persuaded.

"You are a fool, you can't see that this kid has kung fu! Ten of your uncles can't get close to him, do you really want to give it to him? I'm just scared of this person, and I have it in my heart! It's over, he said he wanted to stay, and I don't know if it's good or bad! The old man muttered to himself as he lectured the young man.

"You mean?" The young man was also a little frightened, and his shrunken neck stretched out.

"If you really came to find Master Wang, then ......" Although the uncle didn't say the words behind, the man still realized the meaning of the back, the fire flickered, and the man's head was also moving slightly.

…………

"Uncle, early, Brother Qin, early!" Li Ye built a small wooden house on the side of the village entrance, although it was not big, but it still had some effect on the wind and cold.

This is the second month that Li Ye has come, these days, he has already figured out the situation here, the uncle is the village chief here, named Qin Li, the young man he saw that day is Qin Li's nephew, named Qin Fang, and Qin Li's son who said that he wanted to make a baby that day, named Qin Ming, is a little Zhengtai, not much old, some ancient books have long been memorized, I heard that Li Ye came from outside in the past two days, and pestered Li Ye every day to ask about the story outside, and everyone in the village gradually lowered their guard against Li Ye, Qin Fang instead made friends with Li Ye.

"Yezi, don't blame my brother for not telling you! Today, the second uncle is going out to collect medicine, you hurry up! If it's too late and he leaves the village, you won't be able to keep up! "Qin Fang is very diligent when he comes here, mainly because of some strange things from Li Ye, which makes Qin Fang very interested.

"Thank you, Brother Fang, this box of chewing gum is for you, don't swallow it like last time, this thing is sticky, be careful that your intestines can't pull it out!" Li Ye joked.

"Hehe, it's just this mouthful, no way, you must pay attention, I'm used to eating and swallowing it in my stomach, I'm not used to eating this just now, next time it's fine! Hurry up and keep up! Qin Fang waved her hand and played with the gum box with all her attention.

"Then I'll go, Xiao Tian'er will trouble Brother Qin Fang to help take a look, and there will be a box of chocolate beans to give away when I come back!" Li Ye seduced Qin Fang.

When Qin Fang heard that there were still good things, her eyes lit up: "You go, if this little girl loses a hair when she comes back, I'll come to see you!" ”

…………

"Let's go! I'll be back before dark! Qin Li beckoned dozens of young people accompanying him, carrying baskets of herbs and arrows and hemp ropes, and hurried to the road.

"Uncle Qin, wait a minute!" Li Ye behind him caught up and stood beside Qin Li with a smile on his face.

"The young man has fine skin and tender meat, he can't keep up with the team, and he dies outside, and no one here will collect your body!" Qin Li was very polite and glanced at Li Ye.

"It's okay, I'll just follow my uncle, don't worry about me, if you can find yacon, that's the best, it's okay if you don't find it." Li Ye smiled, and he was not angry at Qin Li.

"Whatever you want!" Qin Li puffed on the big cigarette pouch, didn't look at Li Ye, and then hurried away.

The group walked cautiously against the strong wind, in this kind of weather, any bare skin is fatal, big leather hats and big leather jackets, for fear that there is no protection, they are a little strange about Li Ye's loose and brisk, but they didn't ask much, it was none of their business, plus they couldn't open their mouths at all, and a few people didn't bother with Li Ye.

"Uncle, come here, there are footprints of soldiers and horses here!" The young man in the team was collecting medicine with the disperse of the large army, and suddenly, he shouted at Qin Li, who was not far away.

Qin Li's face turned white in an instant, he strode over, looked at the footprints on the ground, and almost fainted: "Quick, go, the king of the mountain has gone down the mountain to forage for food!" ”

A few people followed the footprints, taking advantage of being familiar with the mountains, and after a while, they had already rushed to the back of an army, presumably the wave of people who left footprints before, that is, the mountain king in Qin Li's mouth.

"Shhhh After reaching a certain distance, Qin Li led everyone to follow this group of people carefully, not stepping forward or retreating, and following closely.

"The king of the mountain forages, the little brother asks for more blessings, follow it later, if you go to other villages, dissolve on the spot, gather in the village, if you go to our village, we will fight with them, say that once a year, this year has come four times! Where is there any money left! Qin Li was indignant, but he didn't dare to act rashly.
