Volume 1_Chapter 25 The King's Carpet (1)

So, they used quarrels as whips along the way, whipped the horse's buttocks, and left a lot of footprints on the way to Fat Sheep Mountain (although most of them were horse footprints).
In the evening, they came to a bare hillside. The vegetation on this hillside is pitiful, like a bald middle-aged man, and when the wind blows, it actually gets dusty.
Tao Xiaozhi said: "It's getting dark, we have to find a place to sleep and eat!"
Silly Xingxing said: "This area is deserted, there are few villages, we go through a few more hills, maybe we will find a few families... β
Tao Xiaozhi said: "It seems that we really want to eat and stay, and go to find our lost dreams in the stars and the moon... β
Silly Xingxing said: "Let's find a farmer as soon as possible, or in this barren mountain and wilderness, I don't know which jackal, tiger and leopard will be taken awayγγγγγγ β
Huoxing said: "Don't be afraid, with your most handsome cousin, jackals, tigers and leopards are just a group of ants! The most handsome cousin will protect you, just like the moon protects the stars!"
Tao Xiaozhi said: "I'm afraid that you are an ant in front of jackals, tigers and leopards, you are already 'small' and pitiful!"
Vulcan said angrily, "Damn the yellow race, don't look at me 'small'! I have a giant-like body, orangutan-like muscles, eagle-like eyes, and a fox-like mindγγγγγγ β
"And a rhinoceros temper!" Tao Xiaozhi said with a smile.
Huoxing shook the fly swatter and said angrily, "Do you want to fight!"
Tao Xiaozhi said: "I never bully children!"
"Who do you say is a child?! It seems that you don't cry when you don't see the coffin!"
"Don't make any noise!" said Silly Star angrily, "It's dark for you!"
"Wow, wow, wow!"
Tao Xiaozhi said: "Are you not an idiot? It's not that we make it black, it's that if it wants to be black, it's black, if it wants to be white, it's our businessγγγγγγ β
Huoxing said angrily, "You are not allowed to scold my lovely cousin! β

Just as they were arguing with red faces and red ears and red saliva flying around, suddenly, there was a sullen suona sound and a horn horn that was so loud that it made people breathe away.
A few Bai Lian floated out from the end of the far hillside, and then a few bamboo poles hung with Bai Lian, and then a group of people came out.
There were about thirty or forty people in this team, blue races, all dressed in linen and filial piety. More than a dozen people walked in front, carrying five coffins, and several people held bamboo poles hanging from Bai Lian. Behind are a few suona blowers and two bragging, and the rest of the people are crying and crying, and the crying is not very sad, it doesn't seem to be too serious, intermittent.
This group of people, with their heads down, stopped and stopped, and walked towards Tao Xiaozhi and them.
Tao Xiaozhi said: "It's just right, let's go and ask them where there is a place to stay overnight!"
Silly Xingxing said: "Others are busy with funerals, and it is when they are sad that they have no time to pay attention to you!"
Huoxing said: "He likes to put on his idiot smile when people are sad!"
Tao Xiaozhi said with a smile: "'Don't be happy with things, don't be sad with yourself', they cry theirs, I laugh at mine, and don't interfere with each other." β
Huoxing said: "It seems that this person has lost even the most basic human sympathy, there is no medicine to save it, pathetic, pathetic!"
When the gang approached, Tao Xiaozhi jumped to the middle of the avenue and said, "Fellow villagers, forgive me for taking the liberty of disturbing youγγγγγγ β
"What kind of bird medicine (disturbance)! Don't you see that we are so sad that we don't even shed a few drops of tears (which probably means that the tears have fallen without tears)?" said a man as strong as an ox carrying the coffin, "I don't care if you are a 'previous life' or a 'later life', if you roll aside and feed * (grass), it is a 'good life'!"
Because this man has not read much books, and his education level is not as tall as that of Huoxing, the words he said are not only rough without any embellishment, but also full of typos, and the meaning makes people scratch their scalps and can't think of what kind of bird it is!
"What's 'hey*'?" Tao Xiaozhi looked puzzled.
"Feed your mother's (horse)'s * (grass)!" said the cow man, "Do you have rats (shit) in your heads, or rats (shit) in your ears?!"
Several of the coffin bearers laughed, but they didn't want to spoil the sad atmosphere, so they barely endured it and snickered in their hearts. It seems that these people are not relatives of the deceased!
Tao Xiaozhi said angrily: "What are you talking about, what kind of bird language?!I'm afraid you can't even fucking understand!"
For example, the cow man raised his fist and said: "Have you ever read a book? I can't even hear the words of Chu (Chu) when I am so spring (pure) and so literate!
Tao Xiaozhi was so angry that he almost lost his breath, but after thinking about it carefully, it was too worthless for people to die for such a rough farmer, so he hadn't been angry yet.
A thin black man with white hair and beard pointed to this like a cow man and said: "Ah Niu, you have lost all the face of your ancestors for the eighteenth generation and our village! Others still think that we rural people can only plow the fields, and they don't even know what the hair of the pen is made of!"
Ah Niu said: "Seriously, I really don't know what bird feathers are made of!"
He finally said something without a typo, proving that his level of education was not too low.
The black and thin old man said: "It's so lonely and unheard, I don't even know this, and even my face has been lost to you... Isn't the brush just made of bird feathers?"
Tao Xiaozhi corrected: "The hair of the brush is not made of bird feathers, but of weasel hair!"
The black and thin old man's face was blue and red (blue people) and iron blue, staring at Tao Xiaozhi!
Tao Xiaozhi knew that he had said the wrong thing, and he should not offend the dignity of the old man and his prestige among the villagers, so he hurriedly changed his words: "That's the case, there are many kinds of brushes! There are bird feathers, weasel feathers, and pig feathersγγγγγγ It's even made of turtle hair!"
"Is there really a ghost (turtle) hair?!" Ah Niu glared and said, "The black ghost (turtle) doesn't seem to have hair!"
Tao Xiaozhi squeaked and said, "Yes... It's got hair on its nose, it's nose hair!"
Ah Niu's eyes lit up and said, "It's really burning his wife (magic)!"
The thin black old man gave a thumbs up and smiled: "This is what cultured people say!"
Tao Xiaozhi hurriedly said: "Pass the award, pass the award! If you are not talented in your later years, how can you compare with the wisdom of your predecessors!"
The two laughed happily (I didn't expect that in the face of the coffin that had not yet cooled, they actually laughed, it was too faceless for the deceased)!
It seems that throwing bricks may not necessarily lead to jade, but patting on the back can definitely be!
The black thin old man said, "I don't know what to teach in the future?"
Tao Xiaozhi said: "It's getting late, and I just want to find a place to spend the night, I wonder if there is such a place nearby?"
The black thin old man said: "There is barren land for several miles nearby, and no one lives there! We also came from Xiaodou Village, far away, and in order to let the soul of the deceased rest in peace, we are going to bury the deceased on a Foshan Mountain dozens of miles away, so we also have a lot of ways to go!"
"That's trouble!" said Silly Star, too, "We're going to sleep with the moon in the sky, tonight!"
Huoxing patted his chest and said, "What are you afraid of! Lovely cousin, you have the most handsome cousin by your side, and I will stand up to you when the sky falls!"
Tao Xiaozhi said to the silly star: "I don't want to sleep with the moon, but sleeping with the 'star' is a good choice!"
Silly Star smiled: "Then you can sleep with my cousin!"
Huoxing said: "The ghost just slept with him, the foul-smelling fellow!"
Tao Xiaozhi said with a smile: "No matter how stinky it is, there are people who are willing to drink the water it soaked in and not leave a drop!"
Huoxing's anger soared again, but it was unfortunately extinguished by Silly Star's sweet words of comfort, otherwise a fire would have been inevitable from the sky.
The thin black old man said: "I suddenly remembered that there is such a place to stay, but it is just γγγγγγ β
"Just what?"
