Text Chapter 4 Poor mountains and bad waters come out of the people

The adults finished their morning's work and rested under the trees, and the women washed their men and children's clothes and walked to their homes to discuss with each other what to eat for the evening. At this time, the grandparents and grandchildren in the courtyard were also full of wine and food, freshened up and stopped, and changed into clean and comfortable clothes similar to those of the villagers. The two old men sat at the table where they had eaten before they had been cleaned up, drinking tea.

The tea leaves are also new tea grown at home. The tea was fragrant, more fragrant than all the tea the old man had drunk before. The children are playing in the courtyard by themselves, and they are curious about the new things around them, and they are interesting to see everything, and they have regained the innocence that they should have at this age.

The village chief put down the teapot that had just been filled with water for the old man and said: "I'm almost rested when I'm full of food and drink, let's talk." Who is this child? Who are you? Why are you here? Who are the forces that are chasing you? Why are they chasing this child?

The old man took a big sip of tea from the teacup, put it down again, and said to the village chief: This matter is a long story.

That's a long story short. The village chief interjected.

Outsiders have never been to the village since the village was built, and people who know the existence of the village can count it on one hand. This kid said that his name was Ye Xiao, and His Excellency was either surnamed Xing or Yu.

That's right, in the next star one. I don't want to tell you who this kid is, you know. The purpose of my visit is to be ordered to bring the child safely to the village of the night. And the one who hunted us down was the Star Rain Pavilion. The old man gritted his teeth and pronounced the last three words, his eyes seemed to be burning, this is a fire ignited with anger, scorching the old man's heart.

Star Rain Pavilion, the most mysterious and largest institution in Kyushu. Above the princes, he is regarded as the co-lord of the world. It is estimated that except for this sleepless village, there is probably no one in Kyushu who does not know the three words Xingyu Pavilion.

The stars fall, and the world is shocked. These six words are not just said casually for the sake of escort. Far away in Kyushu before it was divided, and even far away when there were traces of the human race, there was the existence of Xingyu Pavilion, and legend has it that the Xuanyuan clan defeated Chiyou to unify the world and Xingyu Pavilion has a lot to do with it. Some people also say that the nine tripods cast by Emperor Yu, which carries the opportunity to become an emperor, are also related to Xingyu Pavilion.

No matter how the Kyushu in this world is divided or unified, the princes also respect the Xingyu Pavilion. There are two main organizations in the cabinet. The main field of the Star Word Department, the forces of the rivers and lakes in Kyushu are all under the leadership of the Star Word Department, and the rain word department is the main dynasty, and the general division of the princes of the world.

When the old man reported his name, the old man knew that he was the core member of the Star Character Department, and now the people of the Star Rain Pavilion were chased and killed by the Star Rain Pavilion with all their might, so you don't have to think about it to know that there are only two possibilities, either the old man has defected, or the Star Rain Pavilion has changed hands. And these two results, whether they happen internally, are not good for Kyushu today.

The village chief said with a stern face: What is going on outside, what happened to Xingyu Pavilion. Why did you come alone, where are the stars, you can explain it carefully to me.

"Dead, all dead, the rain character department mutinied, the master was killed, and the last order Fanxing received was to send this child to the village of no night. I'm the only one left on the run. The old man reminisced about his life as a fugitive. The brothers used their bodies to block the enemy's swords and fight their way for themselves. The eyeballs moistened again.

The village chief was silent for a long time and said to the old man: I don't have the power to intervene in the outside world, since you have arrived here, you will be covered by me in the future. You live in my house for the time being, and then I will settle it properly, this child will take care of him in the village of nights, and it is up to him to how far he can grow up in the future.

Xingyi got up from the chair and bowed to the village chief and said: "This kid is please, you don't have to worry about it, I will leave on my own after I am injured."

"Why are you going, I guess there is no place for you in the outside world. Death. ”

"I have survived until now in exchange for the lives of my brothers, and now that the mission is complete, I will return the rest of my life to my brothers. ”

"You can pull it down, it's so reasonable to die, isn't it revenge, what a big deal, I said that your door is already a person from my village who doesn't sleep, and our village can only bully others, not be bullied by others." If you are bullied by them, you have to be bullied back. ”

Go, lead you to bully. The village chief stood up, picked up the flat shoulder that usually carried water from the wall, and was about to go out.

"It was the elite troops of Yuzi who pursued us. The old man said helplessly to the village chief.

"Brother, remember that the village that never sleeps only bullies the elite. ”

There are many of them.

We're heavy.

There are about 500 of them. Very well equipped.

The village chief stumbled, but fortunately there was a flat shoulder to support him in time: "500, it's not a lot, it's a small thing, a small thing." Just plan a little. ”

So what is your plan? Xingyi was used to the unreliability of the village chief, but he still looked at the village chief with questioning.

The village chief said: I'll call someone, if it's 500, it's too slow for the two of us to bully them, and it's too troublesome for everyone to bully them again. Wait a minute.

。。。。。。。

Child, play with grandma at home, I'll go out with your grandpa to run some errands and come back soon. Listen to grandma. The village chief said to Yexiao when he was about to go out.

Uh-huh, I'm obedient.

Xingyi shook his head helplessly, followed and chased out.

Clang, clang, three bells echoed throughout the village. The sound of the bell is thick and endless, and this bronze bell standing here is very strange, and I don't understand the meaning of his existence. It was only when these three bells rang and the people in the village who were busy with the things in their hands immediately changed that they understood the meaning of this bronze bell.

At this time, the people who were enjoying the cool air or playing chess under the trees at the head of the village heard the bell and glanced at each other, and then disappeared in place, and disappeared in the same place, not knowing where to go. The people working in the fields raised their heads when they heard the sound, and only a hoe remained in the field.

The children in the school hall put down their books and looked curiously in the direction of the threshing floor, eager to know what was going on.

The bell rang out, and Hoshiichi, who pushed open the courtyard door, saw that the threshing floor was full of young men from the village. Secretly surprised, I feel incredible, is this the true face of the village? Although I still can't feel the cultivation of these people, but I can all gather in this open space at the moment when I just push the door, and I am completely unaware of it, which makes me can't help but have a new understanding of this village hidden by the harmonious appearance, the village chief's mouth is the best in the world, and the momentum of self-respect is really not bragging.

Xingyi couldn't help but think that if such a force appeared in the world, I am afraid that even Xingyu Pavilion would be afraid of three points. Perhaps this is the true face of this village, a village that has been handed down from time immemorial and isolated from the world. Men plough and weave women, advocating martial arts.

Looking at the scene in front of him, he was completely relieved about the growth of his children here in the future. In his heart, Xingyi still hopes that this child can grow up, regain everything that belongs to him, and avenge his brothers for the Lord. Although he will not arrange the future of his children, if he really lives in a peaceful mountain village and does not get involved in worldly things, he will not be what Xingyi wants.

The village chief stood on the bell tower and watched the young men of the village standing below, and even the old people of the village gathered, which made him very satisfied. He looked at the stars again, and the two looked at each other.

Although the village chief didn't speak, Xingyi received the message from his eyes and told himself: Brother, do you see it? Lao Tzu is serious, and even I am afraid of myself. After that, he said to the villagers below: Children, today the newcomers in our village were bullied by outsiders, go out with me and avenge our people.

As soon as the words fell, the people below were already impatient, but no one dared to provoke the majesty of the village chief. Lao Qi is a living example. Everyone immediately shouted in unison: Beat him, his grandmother.

The village chief looked at the rising emotions of the villagers and shouted: "You are right, beat him, everyone will copy the guy and follow Lao Tzu to bully people." There are no other requirements, we must play the momentum of the village, and don't let the newcomers look down on us. ”

Xingyi looked at the threshing floor, each sword rubbed his palms, and he looked cheering, not afraid of big things, and then think about the harmonious appearance of the village when he came. I didn't feel a cold sweat, and I felt a little worried about the people who came.

Just after noon, the sun is like a fireball scorching the earth, it is the hottest time of the day, the sun exudes heat to dry all the water vapor in the sky, there is not a cloud in sight, from a distance, the moisture in the air is constantly squirming towards the sky, the greedy sun is still unreasonably plundering the water of all things on the earth to cool themselves, the flowers and plants have been unable to resist the ruthless plunder, lowered their heads, shrunk their bodies and reluctantly handed over the water they desperately drew in the depths of the earth at night. The birds abandoned the sky and hid in the shade of trees that were low-key because they did not look at the sun. Only know that he is singing unbridledly.
