Chapter 111: Ulterior motives

It seems that the turtle snake did not intend to kill the iron head, otherwise the iron head would have been buried in the belly of the fish many years ago. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoOur luck can also be said to be extremely bad, this once-in-a-century scene was actually encountered by us. At this time, Luan Xin was patting Ji Chongyuan on the back, complaining while busy: "I knew that he was so careless, so I didn't beat him just now, but now it's good, choking on water, I have to wake him up, and I have to preach to him when I go back." ”

Soon the turtle and snake slowly dived to the bottom, and the surface of the water was calm again. It's hard to imagine that the sparkling waters today almost cost us our lives just in these waters, except, of course.

Along the way, Luan Xin has been carrying Ji Chongyuan, who is still fainting, although Luan Xin's mouth has not been in tune, but he is also a thick and fine person, and he will never drop the chain at a critical time. Back in the village, after Luan Xin's chatter and slight bumps along the way, Ji Chongyuan finally woke up, and when he opened his eyes and saw that he was still in the village, he couldn't help but grow his mouth, feeling that taking us into the water in the morning was like a dream, we simply said a few words about the process on the water, of course, we also deliberately avoided the fight between the iron head and the turtle and snake, so as not to frighten him again. Ji Chongyuan smiled apologetically after hearing this, and hurriedly apologized: "I'm really embarrassed, maybe I've been tired recently, and it's the busy farming season, plus I may not have been in the water for a long time, and I am a little seasick, so I fainted, which really made a few people laugh." ”

It's a pity that Ji Chongyuan didn't know that it was Luan Xin who knocked him unconscious, but Luan Xin didn't seem to have any guilt at all, on the contrary, he talked and laughed with Ji Chongyuan on the way back to the village. It didn't take long for a few of us to arrive at his house, but by this time there were already more than a dozen villagers gathered in the courtyard, and it seemed that they were all the labor force of the entire village.

As soon as they stepped into the door, a group of people put Ji Chongyuan over, it seems that these villagers' fear of the Yellow River outside the village has not been offset, and after seeing that Ji Chongyuan is fine, everyone is relieved, and then the eyes of the whole village are focused on us. Everyone said one by one, with mixed reviews, and it was inconvenient for a few of us to stand at the door and continue to walk inside, so we had to awkwardly let the villagers point fingers.

After a while, Ji Qinghe coughed twice, and then everyone quieted down, Ji Chongyuan walked over with his head down, and said to Ji Qinghe: "Dad, it's not a big deal, it's just a swim." As soon as this sentence was finished, Ji Qinghe slapped Ji Chongyuan in the face, this slap was not light, Ji Chongyuan, a man in his prime, actually fell, although he was slapped for some reason, but he didn't dare to get angry, just stood aside and asked in a whisper: "Dad, why did you beat me, what's wrong with me?" ”

Ji Qinghe stood up without warning, and just wanted to make a move, but looked at the slap mark on Ji Chongyuan's face, put his hand back again, then shook his head, looked at us with an apologetic face, and said, "A few people inside, please." After speaking, Ji Qinghe opened the door and stood aside as if waiting for us to enter. Although a few of us were confused, but the old man has done this, presumably things will not be too simple, I nodded at the villagers first, and then smiled and nodded to the old man, and then a few of us passed through the crowd a little uncomfortably and entered the house.

At this time, there were several people of the same age as the old man sitting in the back room, and when these people saw us, they quickly got up and gave up their seats, and I glared at it, feeling that the matter was even more outrageous, and it seemed that the old man knew something. I was also polite, and took the lead to sit down, and then Ji Shangwu and the others also sat next to me. After sitting down, Ji Qinghe asked Ji Chongyuan, who was half red-faced, to boil a pot of water, and a teapot was placed on the table, which contained a few little teas, and miscellaneous ones, which seemed to be the bottom goods of these families.

I pointed to the teapot in front of me and said, "Sir, what do you mean by this, when you first came, you didn't have tea, and you have to leave to bring this teapot up, is this a consistent custom in the village?" Ji Shangwu also echoed: "Yes, as the saying goes, it is not like a few people are doing this to send us, I don't know what the meaning of a few people is?" ”

"If it's really a clear-eyed person, you can see it at a glance." An old man in a black hat laughed. Then Ji Qinghe said: "Young man, tell me, how did you feel on the Yellow River this morning?" ”

Luan Xin pouted and said, "What else, it's cold." Jing Liyan answered: "Yes, it's a little cold, so I'll just look at the situation if I have nothing to do, and then I'll come back without any fun." ”

"I don't think so, right?" A two-inch-long beard said intentionally or unintentionally, I nodded secretly, the Yellow River is not far from the village, just made such a big move, presumably the people in the village already know, it is not good that there are still people on the shore to observe us, probably because we only care about dealing with the iron head and observing the turtle and snake, so we didn't see the situation on the shore at all, let alone think of this layer, and when we went ashore, they quietly left in the dark, which is why all the people in the village gathered here.

I glanced at Ji Shangwu, he smiled and nodded, I guess he also thought of this, since this is the case, there is no need to hide anything, I nodded to a few old men, and said: "Since a few of them already know, we don't have to hide it, so let's get straight to the point, what do you want to do with such a big posture?" Speaking of this, he realized that he had left the well, and said, "That's right, let's open the skylight and say something." ”

At this time, Ji Chongyuan poured the boiled water into the teapot with an aggrieved face, and then took out a few cups and put them on the table, and poured them one by one. Ji Qinghe didn't directly say what these people meant, but instead asked us to drink some tea and moisten our throats.

Just look at the color, you can see that this tea has been brewed many times, take a sip, the slightly bitter taste has long overshadowed the original fragrance of the tea, except for the mouth astringent in the absence of any feeling, I shook my head, presumably this is the most grand time in the whole village, it is estimated that only the New Year can drink a sip of "Baijia tea" and not everyone can enjoy.

After putting down the cup, Ji Qinghe said, "Several, it's really deep." (To be continued.) )
