There are a total of Kyushu, hence the name.
In the extreme north of Youzhou, there is a city, named Shilong, which belongs to the remote mountainous area, is relatively desolate, and the pomegranate village under its jurisdiction is one of the most marginal villages, living in a corner, covering an area of ten miles, more than 100 households.
Due to the fact that it has been affected by military disasters for many years, the village is not rich and slightly depressed.
In the village, there are wooden houses scattered one after another, and almost every house has a small courtyard in front of it, and the poor ones raise some chickens and ducks to lay eggs, and the richer ones raise some pigs, cattle, sheep and horses.
Several houses surround several acres of land, which are owned by the village chief, and are rented to the villagers every year for cultivation and a certain grain tax is charged.
Country lanes, criss-crossed, extending in all directions.
In the center of the village is a square, where the whole village gathers.
On the edge of the square, a unique building is called the Stone Building of the Town of Ghosts, which is used to ward off evil spirits and drive away ghosts, and the location is said to be the foundation of the village.
Next to the ghost stone building in the town, it is the village chief's house, a high-walled compound, which is incompatible with the surrounding houses.
The village chief's surname is Cai, it is said that in the nearby Shiyun Town, the Cai family is not small, more than ten years ago, the village was haunted, and the previous village chief was unable to quell the ghost rebellion, so the village was taken over by the Cai family, raising more than 20 high-minded evil slaves, and no one dared to challenge his authority.
Pomegranate Village leans against a mountain, across this mountain is the battlefield, every war will kill many people, so the village is haunted, many people think it is true, saying that it is the battlefield ghost asking for life.
It's just that our ancestors have lived here for generations, and future generations dare not relocate for fear of affecting future generations.
Building a house, as it is called, is a big deal!
Moving away from a place is a big deal!
When it comes to feng shui, it is even more mysterious and mysterious, saying that it will have a great impact on future generations, and the bad luck is unpredictable, so the villagers dare not act rashly.
The lobby of the village chief's house.
The window and door were closed, and there was a person, dressed in a yellow robe, with triangular eyes flashing and sharp-beaked monkey cheeks, grinning: "Village Chief Cai, thank you so much, Poor Dao is grateful." ”
"Hahaha, Daochang Jia, we have cooperated for so many years, and it is also appropriate for me to cooperate with you, it is rare that there is such a big beauty in our village, and it is her honor to be favored by Daochang Jia. "An old man of fifty years old, with a hoarse voice, a lewd smile, and a red face.
The big beauty in their mouths, named Bai Yan'er, is twelve years old, but she is already extremely enchanting, and she is naturally charming, which has already made many people want to move.
On the village lane, two boys walk together.
"Daoyan, have you heard? Our village has chosen a holy woman. "One of the boys, missing two front teeth, has a bit of a leaky speech, his real name is Wu Xiaobai, and his nickname is Toothless, because he is homophonic with shameless, so he is often ridiculed by his peers.
"Oh, what kind of saint do you choose?" the boy who walked with Xiaobai was called Daoyan, he had his own surname, but his mother did not allow him to pass it on, and it was said that this was his father's confession.
"Isn't our village haunted? I overheard it, the village chief invited the chief of Jia Dao, said that Bai Yan'er was born in the yang year and the moon, and can kill all ghosts and evils, so it is most suitable to be a saint, so Bai Yan'er should bathe and change clothes at noon when the yang energy is the strongest, absorb the yang energy, last for seven days, and finally sit in the stone building, which can drive away ghosts and evil spirits, and bless the whole village from being invaded by ghosts and monsters. Wu Xiaobai said quietly.
"Bai Yan'er is so powerful? I really can't see it, but she is very beautiful, this is true, she is the best-looking girl in our village. As soon as Daoyan mentioned Bai Yan'er, his expression became different, everyone has a love for beauty, and it is normal for a little boy to have a good impression of a beautiful little girl.
"Speaking of Daoyan, you really like Bai Yan'er? I can listen to my father, Bai Yan'er and her mother, water-based Yanghua, gave birth to Bai Yan'er and ran away with other men, they all said that Bai Yan'er was born exactly the same as her mother, but I am afraid that the temperament is the same, I heard that her father used to be in good health, is the strongest man in our village, since being with her mother, her body has become weaker, she looks half-dead, and she has not improved, Daddy said that Bai Yan'er is a disaster, and told me not to get too close to her so as not to get into trouble. Wu Xiaobai saw that Daoyan's expression was wrong, and out of friendship with Daoyan, he kindly reminded him.
"My aunt said the same, but whatever, anyway, I must marry the most beautiful woman, be the biggest official in the village, fight for my aunt, let them all open their eyes and see clearly, whoever dares to gossip behind their backs, I will smash their mouths. A woman was secretly poked in the backbone by the neighbors in the village, saying that she was a husband or something, and there was a war soon after they became married, and then her husband went to serve as a soldier and has not been heard from since.
"Daoyan ......" Wu Xiaobai knew that Daoyan's life was hard, and he didn't know how to comfort him, but he felt very sad.
"Let's go, Xiaobai, come to my house for dinner today. Daoyan immediately opened the topic, not wanting to say more on it.
"Okay, Aunt Wu's cooking is the best. Wu Xiaobai began to drool.
There is a small wooden house in front of me, which occupies a space of three feet.
There is a small courtyard in front of the house, which covers an area of two feet, there is a well, a bucket, a hoe lying on the wall of the wooden house, a hat, and a poncho.
For their orphans and widows, they can barely shelter from the wind and rain.
Daoyan took Wu Xiaobai into the small wooden room, a woman was sitting on a wooden chair, looking haggard, Daoyan walked over and asked, "Auntie, Xiaobai has dinner at our house today." ”
"Silly boy, you help A-Niang, take this silver bracelet to the small pawnshop to exchange money, buy some rice and vegetables and come back, A-Niang will make food for you." Wu took down the silver bracelet from his hand and handed it to Dao Yan's hand.
"Auntie, what's wrong, isn't this what Daddy gave you when you got married? Why do you have to change it? And there is obviously a lot of rice grain at home. Dao Yan frowned, obviously a little unhappy.
"......" Wu was silent for a while, his eyes were red, he burst into tears, and said helplessly: "The village is haunted, the village chief said that it costs a lot to invite the Taoist chief, this is everyone's business, and they have to share the money together, and there is no money at home, so the rice and grain in our family have been taken away, if we don't sell this silver bracelet, our family will not be able to get through this difficulty." ”
Daoyan's heart was sour, and he immediately said: "Don't sell it, I'll go out to find food, Xiaobai, let's go." ”
Wu Xiaobai nodded again and again, and said, "Aunt Wu, don't be sad, I'll go out with Daoyan to find something to eat, and I'll be back soon." ”
Daoyan and Wu Xiaobai walked out of the wooden house.
"Daoyan, why don't I go to the house and get some food. "Wu Xiaobai is very righteous.
"No need, your family is not having a good time, your father and aunt will also have opinions, and the whole village has to pay for the chief, your family is no exception, the silver bracelet is my aunt's thoughts of my father, every time, she will look at the silver bracelet and cry silently, how can I let her take the silver bracelet." "Daoyan has a relatively strong personality since he was a child, the pawnshop is not opened by the village chief, and the things worth one or two silver, when you go out in the pawnshop, you can only get fifty copper plates, and it costs two taels of silver to redeem it, which is very dark.
"Daoyan ......" Wu Xiaobai's eyes were red when he heard it, relatively speaking, he has a kind-hearted personality, a good temper, and is often bullied, Daoyan often protects him, so he has always regarded Daoyan as his eldest brother, at this moment Daoyan feels uncomfortable, and he is naturally uncomfortable.
"Okay, the boy bleeds and doesn't shed tears, I didn't cry, what are you crying about, I know where to eat. Dao Yan said angrily.
"Where?" Wu Xiaobai wiped his tears.
"The mountain behind the village, there is a sweet potato field there......" Daoyan looked at the big mountain in front of him, which was neither tall nor short.
"What, in the mountains behind the village, there was a battle there, and many people died, and I heard that at night, sometimes there would be inexplicable sounds...... "Wu Xiaobai was furious, obviously a little scared.
"It's still broad daylight, ghosts don't dare to come out, what are you afraid of?
Back Mountain.
Daoyan took Wu Xiaobai to the sweet potato field.
Daoyan's temperament is relatively wild, dare to fight and dare to rush, many children do not dare to come to the back mountain, he just wants to take a look, not long ago, he found that there is a sweet potato field here.
The two of them dug a lot of sweet potatoes, in order to save some firewood for the family, the two roasted sweet potatoes locally, and now that they have grown up, they have to share it for their mother.
The curling smoke rose, and the aroma of sweet potatoes permeated, Daoyan and Wu Xiaobai drooled, and finally the two took off their clothes and wrapped sweet potatoes.
"Dao Yan, why don't you dig out all the sweet potatoes and leave them here?" Wu Xiaobai looked at Dao Yan who was shirtless, and pointed to the roasted sweet potatoes in the soil pit.
Daoyan's figure is relatively lean, and he is not tall, but his strength is not small, he held the hot roasted sweet potatoes in his clothes, and said: "If the village chief thinks that our family's food is not enough, even our roasted sweet potatoes will leave, where to cry when the time comes, take advantage of the hot potatoes, hurry home, it will not taste good when it is cold, these will be left here, just in case." ”
"Haha, you're still smart. Wu Xiaobai hurriedly buried the place where the sweet potatoes were roasted with soil, and immediately ran home with Daoyan.
Just when they ran out of the back mountain, they saw a man, a head taller than them, fifteen years old, the son of the village chief, named Cai Qiang, a little fat, a little dark, relying on himself to be the son of the village chief, usually taking advantage of others.
Beside him, the children of the three villagers were all scolding him and acting as thugs for him, because if nothing else, the next village chief would be this Cai Qiang, his family was powerful, and they were naturally willing to give Cai Qiang a dog's leg.
"Shameless, Daoyan, get out of here. Cai Qiang saw Daoyan and Wu Xiaobai from a distance, he has been used to being domineering since he was a child, and the adults in the village are not afraid, let alone children who are about the same age as him.
