Chapter 89 The white fox worships the god and the jade ring, and the Lou family shoots and hunts to attract disaster
It was almost now, and the little guy didn't seem to be a big deal, so he simply sat down on the steps of the backyard and told the half-truths and half-truths about what happened in this building:
Lou Ji leather goods in this Xianyang City also do three generations, there are as many as seven or eight large and small shops, here is only one of them, the outside shop, inside is the nitrate leather workshop, in addition, there are special storage embryo leather warehouse, stacked finished products warehouse, etc., in this nearby provinces are also considered to be famous.
This generation of Lou family members is called Lou Dashan, with a son and a daughter, son Lou Kang, and daughter Loulan, all of whom are in their twenties. Lou Kang is literate and extremely smart, and the accounts of the family's business are clear at a glance, so he helped Lou Dashan take care of the shop and workshop early; Although Loulan is a girl, her personality is very similar to that of a man, she likes to dance with knives and guns, and at the age of sixteen, she accompanied her father and began to buy leather everywhere.
Lou Dashan has this son and a daughter to help, and in recent years, the business has become more and more prosperous, and the money has become more and more profitable.
There are unforeseen circumstances, just at the moment when the business of this building is booming, who expected that something suddenly happened in the family, and this matter is related to that Loulan-
If you want to say that the fur, it is naturally the most abundant in winter, every year the hunters hunt and take the skins in the winter, and they are kept for the next year to sell, and the Lou family also sends people to the north every spring to buy, and then bring back to Xianyang. Before going out this year, suddenly a guest from the army came to visit the house, it was the adjutant of the great warlord Xia Batian.
The adjutant kept telling Lou Dashan that General Xia's mother had a dream recently. I dreamed of a white fox, and when I woke up, I sighed for a long time, and I couldn't forget the scene in my dream. Xia Batian is extremely filial, and immediately agreed to his mother after knowing this, and on his sixtieth birthday this year, he wanted to give his mother a white fox fur hat......
He agreed like this, and the matter was to be handed over to the Lou family - when the adjutant was the general's order, telling the Lou family to find pure white fox skins no matter what, as long as the Lou family handled this matter well, the money would be greatly rewarded. If not. Raid the house and kill the head mercilessly!
The Lou family had no other way, so they rushed to the northern grassland with this extremely slim edict. Along the way, Lou Dashan and his daughter Loulan went their separate ways, and wherever they went, they must first look for white fox skins. And then talk about the rest. But I looked for more than a month. Not to mention white fox skins, even ordinary fox skins have not received a few.
Seeing that this return date was getting closer and closer, Lou Dashan couldn't help but panic in his heart. Loulan saw it in her eyes, so she had to redouble her efforts to find it-the emperor lived up to his wishes, and finally learned the news of the white fox one day.
Did the locals know that they were trying to hunt the white fox? I thought it was just curiosity, so a child told Loulan that there was a place called Tomb Mountain nearby, which used to be the place where the Mongolian army killed people and buried their corpses, even if it was a blue sky and a white day, it was cloudy and windy, cold and gloomy, and the locals rarely went up the mountain on weekdays, but on that mountain, someone had seen a white fox!
If you want a white fox skin, you can only go up the mountain to hunt it yourself.
Loulan has been good at bow and archery since she was a child, and at this moment she is comparable to a man, she went up the mountain alone with dry food and water, and wandered around the mountain for seven days, and finally saw the white fox in a collapsed mountain temple - at that time, the white fox was holding a thing in his mouth, standing on the broken offering table, his head a little bit, a little lift, a little more, a little more...
The head of the clay stone sculpture of the mountain god was placed on the table, the corners of her mouth were raised, as if she was smiling, and the two holes in the black holes in her eyes seemed to be staring at everything in the world.
The white fox is kowtowing to the mountain god!
When Loulan saw this strange incident, she felt a chill in her back at that time, and she couldn't stop wanting to escape, but when she remembered the adjutant's words, she really felt a dilemma in her heart. She thought about it for a long time, and Zuihou suddenly bit her silver teeth, bent her bow and shot over!
The arrow was off the string, but she closed her eyes and prayed in her heart: "The mountain god is above, and the little woman Loulan has no choice but to shoot the white fox here in order to relieve the danger of the family, and she is really forced to helpless." The mountain god is merciful, poor little woman, please don't blame..."
Hearing only a pop, Lou Lan hurriedly opened her eyes, and the arrow had pierced the head of the white fox and nailed him to the head of the clay mountain god!
The blood from the corner of the white fox's mouth slowly overflowed, dripping on the offering table below, but it didn't move or struggle, but those eyes stared at this side, as if they had penetrated the woods, staring straight at Loulan's eyes, and she only felt deep and vast under the gaze, like the night sky, and somehow her heart trembled.
The jade ring in his mouth also fell on the offering table...
Later, Loulan herself couldn't tell why she stiffly skinned the white fox and took it back to the bottom of the mountain with the jade ring - seeing this jade ring and the white fox, the attitude of the local people suddenly changed completely!
Not only did he continue to trade with the Lou family, but even the food and drinking water were no longer supplied, and the Lou family's caravan was inexplicable, so Lou Dashan came forward to find the village elder who was usually familiar with him for advice, and begged again and again, the elder just sighed and sighed, without saying a word, and sent his son to secretly send food to the caravan at night, and took the caravan out of the village overnight, leaving a word:
"Go home quickly and see if you can find a shaman who is willing to help you, so that you can solve the problem!"
The Lou family was immediately frightened, and they didn't dare to delay more, so they rushed to their home wearing stars and moons. At the beginning, I still remembered the words of the elder, and asked all the way whether there was a shaman, but I never found it, and when I got to the back, the whole caravan did not happen at all, and the road was surprisingly smooth, and I encountered extremely cheap and high-quality leather all the way, and there were a few more large orders at home, and the leather was already insufficient, so I regained the true character of the merchant, and began to stop to buy leather, and regarded this as the suspicion of the elder and the villagers, and gradually forgot about it.
Half a month ago, Nalou Dashan rushed back to Xianyang with the caravan. Picking up the leather, the family remembered the white fox skin that Xia Dashuai wanted, so he found it from the box, took it out, and shook it, and the fox skin rolled down with a clatter, and fell to the ground with a crisp clang.
But it's the jade ring.
Everyone saw that the jade ring was pure white, round and smooth, and there were incomprehensible words engraved on it, like a treasure, so Lou Dashan gave the jade ring to Loulan, saying that it was to be prepared for the future as a dowry - the next day, strange things began to happen.
At noon, a usually good-tempered little guy broke a bowl, and then several little guys quarreled with each other, zuihou actually held sticks and beaten, all of them were beaten to the point that their heads were broken and bleeding, and Lou Dashan couldn't stop drinking - when they took down all the people and tied them to the pillar, they asked again, and the little guy was ignorant, and he didn't know why he started fighting.
On the third day, when the family was having lunch, I don't know who broke the cup, and the fight immediately happened again - but at this time, the fight was between the Lou family itself: Lou Dashan, Lou Dashan's wife, Lou Lan, Lou Dashan's uncle and brother... In this fight, everyone was ruthless, and everyone who beat them was bleeding all over their faces, and their whole bodies were injured!
At this time, Lou Kang came home from the store and found that the family was fighting, and they were all with straight eyes, drooling, and foul language, and they didn't know what they were doing. He was in a hurry, and immediately shouted at a small group of people to catch the family members separately, but those people struggled desperately, but how could they catch them?
He was in a hurry, and suddenly heard the clatter of tiles on the roof, and his heart moved and he ran up to the second floor.
Through the porch, he saw a half-man-tall fox, with a gray coat, beating incessantly on the tiles, with the clatter of his feet, and the people below also moving their hands and feet to the rhythm, struggling and writhing incessantly.
At the moment, Lou Kang couldn't take care of that much, and then took something and smashed it, and when the fox saw it, he turned around and dodged, and fled from the roof with a swish.
The family was quiet!
Something was weird, and the Lou family couldn't help but think of the white fox skin, so they hurriedly looked for the fox skin and wanted to send it to Xia Dashuai, who knew that at this time, Loulan suddenly walked out, and the fox skin was actually on his head!
Lou Kang wanted to take off the fox skin, but found that the fox skin had stuck to her scalp, and no matter how she picked it, she couldn't take it off - she couldn't tell how Lou Lan had glued the fox skin to her head.
Lou Kang wanted to use a knife to cut off the fox skin, but as soon as the knife poked the fur, Lou Lan suddenly cried out, and the pain was incomparable.
In desperation, the Lou family secretly went to find a friend in the world, a famous old Chinese medicine doctor in Xianyang City, Dr. Tang to come to the clinic for treatment - this Tang family and the Lou family have a lot of friendship, Lou Kang and that Tang Yuan have grown up together since childhood, and they have a lot of friendship.
Zaijian Loulan, who knows things are different again!
Originally, the white fox fur wrapped Loulan's head in it, as if she was wearing a white felt hat, but now, somehow, Loulan's hair actually came out of the white fox fur, mixed with the fox fur, as if she had a full head of gray hair, and the fox skin was completely connected to her scalp, with a tight thread, and there was no gap.
Loulan herself was also confused and sober for a while, and when she was confused, she muttered in her mouth: "There is a debtor who is wronged, there is a debtor who is wronged, there is a debtor who is wronged, and there is a debtor who is wronged......" Doctor Tang saw it, and only shook his head, unable to think about it at all.
At this point, the Lou family fought and quarreled every day, but fortunately, no matter how noisy and fighting, Lou Kang was always sober, and he was always able to take the servants at home to separate everyone - later, Lou Kang also found out, but whenever it was noon, the house began to quarrel, and at that time, the white fox could often be seen at home.
