"Fang Shaoyun, here you go."

Early the next morning, Sing handed Fang Shaoyun a bunch of things that shone with cold light.

"Holy. What are these? Fang Shaoyun looked at the pile of things that shone with cold light and said. Early in the morning, what are you doing? ”

"Aren't you going to Lulu's house soon?"

"This is an authentic field saber." Sing first took out a knife that shone with a cold light and said. "You look at the edge of the knife, sharpen iron like clay, kill without blood, known as the modern dragon slaying knife, you can tie this knife to the calf, when there is danger, pull it out, even if you can't control the enemy with one sword, you can also scare the enemy. Now those gangsters on the streets of Changsha have at most imitations, and I am an authentic military product. Top quality goods. ”

"And what is this?" Fang Shaoyun, who couldn't cry or laugh, pointed to a pile of chain-like things and said.

"This thing is even more." Sing took the pile in his hand and shook it. Fang Shaoyun finally saw that this was a vest made of thin iron chains.

"This is the chain mail that the guys who walk the rivers and lakes in the martial arts often wear." Sing said. "The golden silk soft armor worn by Huang Rong in the legend of the legendary Condor Heroes is also this kind of thing. However, her one is relatively high-end, and ordinary swords can't hurt at all. I'm more ordinary, but don't underestimate it, after you put it on, the average big blade won't hurt you. I went to several stores yesterday and asked a few friends to buy these things. How's that, not bad. Be grateful to me. ”

"What do you mean?"

Sing wanted to go on. Unexpectedly, there was a murderous aura behind him. Sing looked back and saw Lulu standing coldly.

"Do you want Fang Shaoyun to suppress the bandits, or do you want Fang Shaoyun to cut my father and kill my whole family?"

"How could I mean that, don't get me wrong."

"It's just that I heard that Xiangxi is very dangerous, and there were many bandits before." Sing said, "With this, it's better to be prepared." ”

"Yes, yes." Edward agrees. "I think this time Fang Shaoyun is more than lucky. Maybe as soon as he arrives at your house, your old man will chop him up with a knife, so I think even if Fang Shaoyun doesn't take that knife, it is necessary to wear chain mail. ”

", you guys." Lulu said, "You think my dad is a murderer." I'll chop you up if you talk nonsense. ”

"Ah~." Edward and Sing fled because Lulu had already picked up the field saber.

For Fang Shaoyun, Huaihua, like all the Xiangxi regions, is a very mysterious place. Fang Shaoyun has been full of curiosity about this place since he was a child, and there are two videos that Fang Shaoyun has always remembered. One is the record of Xiangxi's bandits. Fang Shaoyun couldn't remember the specific details, anyway, Fang Shaoyun remembered that it seemed to be a story about the daughter of a bandit leader who pulled a group of bandits around in the mountains and fought with a group of People's Liberation Army. The scene of the battle didn't seem to be too violent, but the poor mountains and bad waters left an indelible impression on Fang Shaoyun, so that for a long time, when I thought of Shaoyun in western Hunan Province, I would think of the poor mountains and bad waters in the film, and the mountains and mountains were steep. Fang Shaoyun always wondered if there were still many bandits hiding there. However, what made Fang Shaoyun feel that Xiangxi was very mysterious was another film, it was a very old Hong Kong film, one day after class at Fang Shaoyun Primary School, he followed a big brother who went to middle school next door, Fang Shaoyun saw it in the video hall. This is an old film related to chasing corpses, it seems to be called Xiangxi corpse chasers or something.

The things in it are very mysterious, and it talks about a mysterious profession in Xiangxi, which is to chase corpses. can drive corpses to walk, and the corpse chasers in that film are all wearing big black corpse cloth clothes, shaking jingling soul bells, and ringing small gongs in their hands, and those zombie-like corpses are all pasted with yellow charms, jumping and jumping. It's very eerie.

At that time, Fang Shaoyun felt very scary. When I got home, I had a nightmare at night. Later, Fang Shaoyun felt that it was very inconsistent with scientific laws. But just like that, Fang Shaoyun still felt that Xiangxi was a place where the dragon and the tiger were hidden. It is said that there are many hotels in many places in Xiangxi now, without exception, with straight, heavy, black-lacquered wooden doors that open inward. Behind the doors of these small inns, there was a place for the corpses to stand. The local custom of taboo children playing behind the door stems from this incident.

And after the top ten competition, Fang Shaoyun felt that there were not a few people who had such thoughts, such as the captain of the Demon Club, Su, who thought that Lulu would know what Xiangxi witchcraft.

It was also very fast to take the train from Changsha to Huaihua, and Fang Shaoyun couldn't figure out why there was only such a little bit of road at first, and this Xiangxi would give people such a feeling.

And along the way, after Lulu introduced Fang Shaoyun, Fang Shaoyun got to know a little bit.

In fact, Xiangxi should be no different from most places in Hunan, but there may be more ethnic minorities in Xiangxi, including Dong, Miao, Yao, Tujia and more than 30 ethnic minorities, because these ethnic minorities have their own unique ethnic culture, so sometimes, people outside will think that the customs here are very different and very mysterious.

Lulu said that Huaihua has a long history and was known as the "Land of Jingchu" in ancient times. As early as the Neolithic Age, the ancestors here entered a settled life based on primitive agriculture and livestock raising economy.

This alone was already bluffing, and Fang Shaoyun was stunned. As soon as Lulu told Huaihua that the number of ethnic minorities was now 41.5%, Fang Shaoyun was even more dizzy.

***

When he got off the train, Fang Shaoyun carefully took Lulu's hand, for fear that he had come to another world.

However, when he came out to take a look, Fang Shaoyun didn't find anything special, and it didn't seem to be much different from ordinary cities.

Lulu's home is in Chenxi County, Huaihua, dozens of kilometers away from Huaihua City.

After getting into a taxi again, Fang Shaoyun thought a little sadly, it seems that he is completely hung up this time, maybe this place is the same as Changsha, not long after leaving the city, it is a poor mountain and bad water. When the time comes, you may be able to see some minority wizards. Maybe I'll be turned into a zombie by the master invited by Lulu's father, and then I can only say goodbye to my dear Kay and my parents.

Thinking about it, Fang Shaoyun felt that the chain mail was quite useful. However, Fang Shaoyun felt that it was a pity that there was only one thing. If you wear it yourself, Lulu won't have to wear it either. So Fang Shaoyun felt that it was better not to wear it, and Fang Shaoyun felt that if he wore that chain mail at the beginning, Lulu would definitely kill himself in a frenzy.

After the car drove into the territory of Chenxi County, Fang Shaoyun suddenly realized that his previous imagination was completely wrong. In Fang Shaoyun's imagination, this place must be a place of poor mountains and bad waters. But along the way, Fang Shaoyun only felt that the scenery was beautiful, and although there were many mountains here, there was more water, and there were rivers and ponds almost everywhere. Wuxi, known as the land of fish and rice, is nothing compared to this.

"Well, we have a nice view here."

Although Lulu, who returned to his hometown, was a little nervous, he couldn't help but feel a little proud when he saw Fang Shaoyun so engrossed.

"Yes." Fang Shaoyun nodded and said. "So many rivers and ponds."

"What is this?" "It's not a lot here, it's a lot near my house." There are two large rivers next to it, the Yuan River and the Chenshui River, and there are many large ponds around. The fish we have there is cheaper, and my dad makes it delicious. ”

Fang Shaoyun has always liked to eat fish, if he usually came to this kind of place, Fang Shaoyun would definitely be very happy, but at this time, Fang Shaoyun did not have a little joy. Fang Shaoyun remembered that in ancient times, many men and women who cheated on each other, especially those who were unmarried and pregnant like Lulu, would be thrown into the pig cage and thrown into the river to drown.

"We're not going to be immersed in the pig cage, are we?" Fang Shaoyun thought extremely sadly. "A pond here will drown me."

"Lulu, how are the customs and culture maintained in your family?" Fang Shaoyun asked Lulu very uneasily.

"How's it going?" Lulu asked very strangely.

"In other words, many of your ancestral customs are still in use? Isn't there no ancestor worship in the city now? Many of the old customs in our country are not being followed now. Fang Shaoyun said.

"That's what you're talking about." Lulu said. "We are very traditional here, and we are still doing the customs and habits that have been handed down from our ancestors."

"Ugh." Fang Shaoyun rolled his eyes, almost fainted, thinking that this time he was more than lucky, and it was estimated that he would die for a lifetime.

Just when Fang Shaoyun was thinking about life and death, Lulu said something. "I'm almost there."

Fang Shaoyun glanced over and saw a row of white houses, scattered, and Lulu's finger pointed to one of them. However, what attracted Fang Shaoyun's attention even more was the sign hanging on the other side of the house.

"Dalukou Police Station."

Fang Shaoyun now suddenly felt that the three words of this police station were very kind.

"Later, if they want to soak us in the pig cage, I will run to this police station to ask for help." Fang Shaoyun thought. "They say that they will not see death or save them.";
