Chapter 16: The Rumor Freer

"Will the old guy do anything?" The dragon spirit was furious, and he didn't call Cang Jizi, he left the crowd angrily and strode towards a large wooden shed at the end of the platform.

The wooden shed was the village council hall, with mud walls on one side, wide open on three sides, and a circle of straw curtains to cover it.

At the door, there is a totem pole with the dragon god coiled, carved from a huge piece of wood, which looks very majestic at first glance, but it is not very good when you get closer.

The sculptor who made this work of art was of poor skill and carved the dragon's head like a smiling crocodile's head. The dragon's body lines are stiff, the scales on the body are of different sizes, and the arrangement is messy, and the image is very ridiculous.

However, considering that the sculptor carved on hardwood with a stone knife, it is already remarkable to be able to carve like this.

"What a 'mother' ugly!" The dragon is not in a good mood, and this totem pole, which usually laughs when he sees it, is not pleasing to the eye at this time.

With meat and a bullwhip in his hand, he lifted the straw curtain and walked into the chamber.

As soon as I entered, I saw all kinds of abstract patterns painted on the opposite wall, like a child's graffiti.

The most eye-catching is the 'Sun Gong' in the middle of a flame like a horse's hair, which is said to symbolize the nostalgia of the people of Longze for the sun-drenched northern homeland.

There were a few clean reed mats on the ground, and two people were sitting around the fire and talking, one of them was the Great Wizard.

When the two saw someone enter the door, they turned their heads together.

"Oh, it's a dragon spirit, what's the matter?" One of the old men nodded at him in greeting.

When Long Jing took a look, he saw that this old man was black and strong, with a big head and a square face, but he was the leader of Long Ze's department, the great elder Shi Pan.

"Hello Great Elder, I have something to discuss with you, but I'll talk to the Great Wizard about some personal matters first."

Shi Pan smiled: "Can I listen to your private affairs." ”

The Great Wizard also smiled: "It's okay, let's talk about it." ”

The dragon spirit endured his anger and said: "Great wizard, that day in your house, you promised to let me out of trouble, but ......"

The great wizard touched the bone staff and smiled: "I have already let people go out, is there still a woman pestering you?" ”

"That's not how it solves the problem!" Long Jing blushed, and shouted in a loud voice: "There are many ways, but you have chosen the most embarrassing method for me, how will you let me live in the village in the future." ”

"This ...... What's going on? "The Great Wizard is also confused.

The dragon spirit told the reason, and the two old men couldn't cry or laugh when they heard it.

Shi Pan also accused the Great Wizard and said, "Wu Crow Gong, what you did was really inappropriate. It is a great shame for a man to be ridiculed and not be able to give birth to offspring. ”

"But I didn't say that!"

The great wizard spread his hands and shouted: "I really didn't say such a thing, I just let people say that the dragon son is not here to breed, who would have thought that it would be like this in the end." ”

He was very ashamed, and sincerely apologized to Long Jing: "Longzi, I really can't stand you, old man, I will clarify for you." ”

The dragon spirit believed that he could not lie, and was also surprised that a normal word had mutated like this, which showed that he was too jealous of men and was deliberately distorted by rumors.

At this point, there was no other way, he had to consider himself unlucky. Just as he was about to urge the great wizard to take advantage of the large number of people in the food sharing ceremony to announce it in public, he saw the grass curtain lifted, and Cang Jizi walked in.

I saw this kid holding meat in his hand, and said proudly as he walked: "A few old men don't want to give me a good share of meat, hum." I happened to meet someone from the hunting team who said that I had brought good news to all the men, so everyone supported me, and the old man had to give me the meat obediently. ”

When the dragon spirit heard this, his heart moved, and he asked, "What good news have you brought to them?" ”

Cang Jizi suddenly covered his mouth and stopped, looked at Wu Gui, and then looked at the great wizard, his face showed a look of fear, and he forced a laugh and said, "I, I, I have to go back to barbecue, otherwise it will stink." So saying, he ran away.

The three dragon spirits were confused by his strange behavior, and after being stunned for a while, Shi Pan waved his hand and said, "This kid is chattering, don't care about him." Dragon Spirit, talk about your business. ”

"I think of a ......" As soon as Long Jing spoke, he suddenly jumped up, and shouted with a fist outside the door with a bruised head: "Cangjizi, I'm going to beat you to death!" ”

He roared, and rushed out of the door under the stunned gazes of the Great Wizard and the Great Elder, running to the platform and scurrying around looking for Cang Jizi. After looking for it a few times but not finding it, he returned to the house and sat down angrily, still angry.

The Great Elder and the Great Wizard were confused, and Shi Pan asked cautiously, "Dragon Spirit, who are you?" ”

"It's Cang Jizi, it's what he said."

The dragon spirit panted like a cow, and said indignantly: "It was the thief bird who said to the people of the hunting team that I was incompetent for a piece of meat, and the mouth of the fake great wizard. ”

"Ahh The two of them looked at each other, not knowing what expression to make to face the dragon spirit.

It took a long time for the dragon spirit to dissipate his anger, and said to Shi Pan, who had an embarrassed expression, "Great Elder, I am too rude. ”

"It's okay, talk about you."

"Well, I just saw the villagers divide the meat, and suddenly came up with a way to keep the meat for a long time without rotting."

The Great Wizard's face showed a look of relief, and Shi Pan cautiously asked, "How long can it be kept?" ”

Long Jing said: "It's no problem to keep it for a few years." ”

"A few years!" The two were shocked.

"Is there really such a thaumaturgy?" Shi Pan couldn't believe it.

The dragon spirit nodded vigorously and said, "Of course." ”

"Hahahaha!" Shi Pan laughed and clapped his hands and shouted, "If you really let the meat be preserved for a few years, won't my Longze Department produce several times more food?" ”

The Great Wizard also twisted his whiskers with trembling hands and smiled, "That's true. The jungle is too hot and humid, and the fish and meat will rot after a few days. ”

"Someone." Shi Pan stood up and called a young man and ordered, "Go quickly, call all the elders!" ”

"But how many elders haven't finished their food yet?"

"What kind of food? Aren't a few old guys just trying to be in the limelight? Let others divide and tell them to come at once, that there is something very important to discuss. ”

The young man was busy, and after a while, four people entered, three old men and a tall young woman.

In addition to Gougong, the other two old men are called Pig Gujian and the other is Wuzhipeng, and the young woman is the eldest sister of Nu Xin, the patriarch of the weaving family, Nu Luo.

Nu Luo is only twenty-three or four-year-old, but among the natives who give birth to children at the age of fourteen or fifteen, she is already considered middle-aged.

When several people heard Shi Pan's words, their eyes lit up, and the female Luo smiled charmingly at the dragon spirit: "The dragon son is really smart and superhuman, and if he moves his thoughts casually, he can benefit mortals." Arlo has always adored you. ”

As she spoke, she sat down next to the dragon spirit and looked at the dragon spirit up close without disguise.

"Ahem." The dragon spirit couldn't stand it anymore and moved to the side.

"Ugly woman, we're all waiting to hear what Longzi has to say, don't disturb Longzi." Elder Pig Gujian shouted irritably.

I saw that Nuluo's oil painting face raised her eyebrows, pointed to the pig bone and scolded: "You stupid pig dare to say that the old lady is ugly, and your pig women are even uglier!" ”

"Haha, the ugly, thin and old mother-in-law is actually compared with the fat and beautiful women of my pig family, and she is not afraid to laugh off other people's big teeth."

The pork bones are as strong as the tuba Pan 'Chang' Jiang, and his temperament is strong and flustered, leaving no room for speech.

Nu Luo was furious, rushed over and scratched his face, and several people finally grabbed it, and persuaded it for a long time to quell the war, and they all secretly shook their heads.

"What a vixen!" The dragon spirit looked at the few blood marks on Pig Gujian's face, and moved to the side with some fear.

In fact, he still has a good impression of this female di, in addition to appreciating her daring to think and do, decisive and pungent personality, the main thing is that the slender figure and delicate face of Nu Luo are more in line with the aesthetics of the dragon spirit.

Just because she is too slender and her face is too small, she was scolded as an 'ugly woman' by the aesthetically normal pig bones. It is precisely because he is too 'ugly' and has a high spirit, so there is no man yet, a proper queen of defeated dogs.

When the scene quieted down, the dragon spirit hurriedly said his thoughts, which was actually to preservate fresh fish and meat.

Because there is no salt, and the jungle is hot and unventilated, there is no play for cured meat and air-dried meat, so the meat can only be thoroughly roasted with fire, and then placed in a dry place, and it should be no problem to store it for a few years.

The method was very simple, and the elders understood it as soon as they heard it, and they sighed that they couldn't think of it.
