Wanshan County is a small isolated border county. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Surrounded by lofty mountains and cliffs, a small county is surrounded by cliffs, and it is a basin in today's words. A deep large basin.

In ancient times, a group of refugees in the interior of the Central Plains inadvertently broke in to escape the war. After hundreds of years of living and reproduction, the population has gradually grown, forming a large county with hundreds of thousands of people today.

Later, there were also troops who visited, but due to the special terrain, the unique nature, and the risk of foreign invasion, it was ruled out as a military location, but became the ruler's base for recuperation, and was little known to outsiders.

Therefore, the administrative district is specially set aside as a county. There are four small towns in a radius of hundreds of square kilometers, namely Wango Town, Wanwu Town, Wanji Town, and Wanlai Town. It is on par with Wanshan County.

The people of Wanlai Town have lived in peace and quiet for generations, relying on a few prestigious and powerful families in the town to uphold justice and maintain law and order.

Some people have never walked out of the mountains since they were young, and they have been trapped in the basin all their lives, and they have died at the end of their lives. Some people have also walked out of the mountains, and there are two ways out of the mountains, one by water and one by mountain.

The waterway flows down the Daling River, although it does not take too much effort, but it is long and dangerous, each section is different, sometimes stable and sometimes roaring, since ancient times, there are many auspicious and less, even if it flows smoothly out of the mountains, into the river, flows to the sea, even if it does not die, it is impossible to come back. Wanlai Town has always gone out by water, and it is rare to see a few people come back;

Compared with the waterway, the mountain road is relatively safer, but the mountain is high and the road is far away, the road is rugged, many places are no man's land, are primeval forests, tigers and leopards are infested, poisonous snakes block the way, there are no twenty or thirty people to go together, the same fierce and auspicious, there is no return!

In the early years, the mountain roads and horse roads opened by the army have long been abandoned or artificially destroyed because they have been unmaintained and guarded for a long time, and they are in a primitive state everywhere.

The most prestigious person in Wanlai Town is the rich man of Wan Shichang in the center of the town.

It was the old man Wan who had mediated the medical dispute between Leng Banxian and Butcher Wang before.

Legend has it that this person went out to join the army when he was young, and made military exploits, and then returned to his hometown after removing his armor, and he was bold and domineering.

There are thousands of acres of land under the name, all of which are rented to the neighbors of the four townships for farming, and live by collecting rent, and the natural wealth is rich, the family is big, and the waist is full of thousands of dollars; and recruit the descendants of the Quartet, there are nearly 100 people, give them food and shelter, and ask someone to teach them boxing and martial arts, for a long time, they raise all of them with big shoulders and round waists, like wolves and tigers, and the people in the town are far away in awe, and all of them are obedient.

Old Man Wan recruited soldiers and sold horses, claiming to be the whole people practicing to protect the family and defend the country, but in fact he was his own thug housekeeper and collected protection fees from the people. Even the county magistrate gave him three points.

Although Wan Shichang is over sixty years old, he is in good health, and his speech and demeanor are hearty and happy, and he has not reduced his courage in the slightest.

The knees are already full of children and grandchildren, and there are groups of wives and concubines, but they still don't change. But if you hear that there are high-class and beautiful women in the county, no matter which town you are in, you will not let them go! The sky is high and the emperor is far away, and the life is more leisurely than the emperor.

――

No, I have been a concubine in Zhang Luona again recently! It is said that it is from the nearby Wanwu Town, and the girl is not yet fifteen years old!

But when the old man was in the spotlight, it was a death affair - there was no reason to bargain!

And the woman's family should also be proud of being able to connect with thousands of relatives, and be happy, firecrackers, gongs and drums, and send the woman to the door with great momentum.

As soon as Lingwa returned to the town with firewood on her back, she saw people rushing to the center of the town, dragging their families and making noise, I don't know what is going on?

It was already dark, and the lanterns and torches in every house were lit up in the past, but most of them were not lit up tonight? The streets were dark, and only the figures running in the darkness were seen. Lingwa wondered in her heart, thinking that something earth-shaking had happened?

I was a little scared, so I hurriedly ran to the noodle restaurant, wanting to ask my grandfather what was going on?

Returned to the noodle shop, put down the firewood and came to the backyard, saw that the whole noodle shop was only the second brother of the shop, and a few girls from the boss were in the room, and no one else was seen, and returned to the low house in the corner, and saw Leng Banxian cooking potatoes under the dim oil lamp, he couldn't care about the hunger that had already been croaking, and asked the old man what was going on with the people outside?

The old man told him unhurriedly that it was the old man Wan in the town who married the fourteenth aunt, and the people all went to the ceremony! Our family was poor and couldn't afford the ceremony, so we had to cook potatoes at home and eat them.

When Lingwa heard this, she suddenly had a thought-

He said to the old man, "I'll go out and have a look," and then I turned around and ran out.

Lingwa knows that the people in the town are going to eat the wedding banquet, the lantern room flowers candle night, and the folk custom is to put up a dinner party to entertain the blessed people, and the night is called the flower night, and there is a main banquet the next day.

If you want such a big family, the banquet must be very rich, there must be chickens and wine, why not take this opportunity to get a little, and tomorrow I will go up the mountain to the lame uncle!

The old man didn't stop him too much, he thought that children love to be lively, and it would be okay for him to go and see what to see. Anyway, you can't lose it, and you can come back in the dark with such a familiar street.

Lingwa ran out into the street, and quickly blended into the crowd in the dark, and he ran forward vigorously, his stomach growled, as if he saw a table of chickens and fish beckoning to him, gulping down the drool.

Before I reached the middle of the town, I saw that the lights were shining brightly in the distance, and the fire was soaring! The red lantern hung far away from the street.

Slowly approaching, all I saw was people. There are more people rushing to the street than on weekdays, and the black pressure is large and large and large patches are spread all over the street, and the voices of people are ridiculed and the noise is shocking.

In the past, the high walls were as majestic as the temple palace, but tonight the door of the cave is wide open, and the red lanterns in the courtyard are also inserted in the high walls, which is very magnificent.

The large square table was placed from the courtyard to the street outside the courtyard, and it was full of people around it, and there were people waiting to sit next to it, for fear that they would not be able to grab a place and not be able to eat.

When Lingwa arrived, the first seat had already begun, and the villagers, the townspeople, seemed to be deliberately eating Haisai on an empty stomach. Although it was not a big fish or meat, it was full of sweet potatoes, soybeans, potatoes, batter and other coarse grains, and it was also a plate that was quickly emptied on the previous plate.

"It's the last course, it's gone, it's the last course, it's gone—the next table is ready!"

Lingwa is a small and clever person, waiting at a table early, and before others get up to leave, he stands on the stool, forcing people to give way, and the person next to him angrily scolds him fiercely, "Starving ghost reincarnated!"

Mixed on the street for a long time, there are many people who know the spirit baby, because the spirit baby is playful and active by nature, and is not friendly to the neighbors, giving people a very bad impression.

The people at the table looked at him with contempt and hatred, and they didn't look at him polite at all, without any politeness, and if it weren't for the fact that there were too many people to sit in, no one would want to eat at the same table with him.

There were also two men who were not used to scolding him unceremoniously: "Where did you come from, wild boy, get out of the way!"

Lingwa only squinted at him with her eyes, still kneeling on the stool and not moving.

Another man next to him asked, "Boy, what about your family, why don't you eat with you?"

Lingwa knew that he was deliberately laughing at himself for not having a father and mother, and he came to eat flowers alone, but he still didn't speak and ignored him. The man didn't even look at him when he saw Lingwa, and scolded casually:

"This kid is in a wild seat! There are no adults to bring them, and they don't pay courtesy, shameless things-"

No matter what they say, Lingwa just kneels on the stool and does not move. Because people are small and short, the table is too high, and you can only kneel on a stool to eat what is on the table. I thought, what's the matter with you? It's not to eat your house? I'm here to eat, I'm mad at you!

Finally looking forward to the first dish, a big bowl of oil pot cowhide leaves, before the person serving the dish put the dish steady, Lingwa took the first chopsticks down, and pinched a large chopstick into his bowl, almost one-third of the bowl of dishes!

was so angry that a table of people glared at him, and the two men next to him scolded again:

"You want to rob it, don't you? I'll give you a person to eat, and I won't eat it?"

Lingwa only cares about eating, ignoring their scolding, thinking that she has not eaten for a day, and her heart is close to her back before she is hungry, and she only has the strength to grab vegetables;

The second bowl, braised soybeans, also served on the table, Lingwa was the first to reach out to his bowl and hugged a lot, he still saw soybeans, he only saw a bowl of red soup this time, and the man next to him scolded angrily:

"If you rob him like this again, Lao Tzu will kick you to death-do you hear?"

Lingwa only ate in a big gulp, thinking to herself, then I won't grab it, I will only clip it when you clamp it, anyway, I will clip it with big chopsticks and big chopsticks, and I will shave it in the bowl with big chopsticks and big chopsticks, and I will also eat a lot!

The third dish, braised carrots, had not yet been served, and the man next to him warned him: "I'll see you grab it again, try it again!"

Lingwa glanced at him angrily, thinking, I'm still young, I can't beat you, so let you go this time, if you don't rob it, you won't rob it. As soon as the food was served, no one moved. The two men next to him looked at Lingwa like a beast, as if as long as Lingwa grabbed the chopsticks first, they would beat him off the table.

Lingwa ate all the things in her bowl, and saw that the two dishes served first were already facing the bottom of the bowl, and there was not even soup left, looking at the big bowl of carrots in the center of the table, no one dared to move-

He looked around, and the people in the courtyard were raising glasses under the light, eating, drinking, laughing, and the noise was deafening.

Suddenly, two rough men walked out of the hall and carried a large wooden barrel more than half a person high and more than a meter in diameter to a big tree in the courtyard.

He knew that it was rice or dough or something like that that was coming, so he suddenly jumped off the table, took the empty bowl and went straight over, thinking, I'm going to grab the rice, not the food with you.

Almost at the same time, the children in the courtyard were all running together to the big wooden barrel, and the scene was like an open sluice, coaxing all of them to rush over. The adults who carried the bucket kept yelling, "Slow down, slow down, don't squeeze, don't squeeze-

The owner was happy to see this scene, which shows that the popularity is prosperous, the prosperity is prosperous, and the children are grabbing food and grabbing the nest head, and the more fierce the robbery, the more auspicious.

The shouting, the scolding, the upheaval! all of them ran after and screamed at the front like the hungry ghost,

"Give me the rice spoon, give it to me first, don't give it to others!" The one who grabbed the rice spoon in front of him pinched the spoon and looked around looking for someone, calling each other by name

"Old five, old five, to you, to you!"

The girls followed the boys, begging their father for milk, and they were so anxious that they shed tears.

"Brother, help me, help me first!"

"I just need a small bowl, don't burn your hands, a small bowl is enough"

Lingwa has been strong since he was a child, and there is no child of the same age who is stronger than him, rushing left and right all the way, and if he can't open it, he will lie on the ground and bury his head in drilling-

Of course, he also received a lot of black fists on his back, and someone even smashed him on the head with a bowl. But in any case, he quickly rushed to the barrel, and without hesitation made a large bowl of rice in the barrel with his own bowl - what spoon do I think I use?

endured the heat again, reached out and grabbed a corn nest, tightly protected it in his arms, and desperately squeezed out of the pile.

When he came out, he saw that the nest was crowded, and there was only half a bowl of rice left, and a pile of corn paste, along with the rice, wrapped in his muddy clothes. I couldn't care so much about it, and when I returned to the table in front of me by the wall, the two men saw that he was sweating profusely, with a pile of rice in his arms, and he was dirty.

He didn't fight with them, he walked to the side in the dark, grabbed the rice balls in his hands, and ate them in a big gulp, which was also very fragrant, compared to potatoes and sweet potatoes every day at home, it was a hundred times more delicious, and he could eat very much without vegetables.

A large wooden bucket of rice was quickly snatched up, and after a while, a second bucket of rice was brought out of it, and Lingwa went to grab another bowl and ate it in a big gulp, and her stomach was almost full at this time.

Look at his own table, while the two men went to eat, quietly ran over, picked up the remaining large bowl of beans and ran, no matter how the others scolded, pretending not to hear;

Now I can be considered full of food and drink, and I am full, my stomach is round, and I am satisfied.

He had one thing on his mind, and that was the chicken and the wine! I think I'll have to go up the hill to-morrow to give the lame man!

So even if I grabbed vegetables and food, I didn't forget it in my mind. He knew that if he couldn't find that thing even at Old Master Wan's house, then he couldn't find it anywhere else.

He thought about stealing, but he could only take it quietly, and he had no money to buy it, and he couldn't afford it!

Moreover, the money of these rich people is usually narrowed from the common people, and stealing from them is tantamount to returning the goods to their original owners. That's what he thinks, anyway, this black light is blinding, and the adults don't take him seriously, they don't notice him, even if he is caught, that is, he steals food, he is hungry, there is no way-

Even if you tell your grandfather to beat yourself, you're not afraid of pain anyway.
