Chapter Twenty-Six: The Gathering of the Villagers

In the early morning, the morning sun has not risen, and the roosters are messy. There was a lot of noise in Lousang Village, but it was much more noisy than usual.

"Bang bang bang~! Bang bang bang~! ”

There was a constant knock on the door in the village, and there was no call, but there were more and more dense footsteps.

"Alas~, why is it that every time I see this kind of scene, I have such a strong sense of déjà vu?" Leaning at the door of his house, Liu Cang looked at the scene in the village like a dark gathering, and sighed and complained to Liu Bei beside him.

"Haha, Haoxuan, look, I, Liu's young man, am really heroic." Liu Bei, who was holding a short stick on his waist and a short stick on his side, laughed loudly, and when he spoke, he didn't forget to look at Liu Cang's courtyard.

Two teams of young and strong men, divided into two roads, slapped doors along the village door to door.

When the door rings, one person or several young people will come out of their own courtyard. or cross the knife, or carry a stick, gather into the group, and go to the courtyard door together.

Among the young and strong, those who cross the knife are more powerful, not the knife helps the fierce, they are about to be entangled into bricks by hemp rope, and obviously they can't go anywhere.

Coarse linen piercing the head, arms and calves are wrapped with hemp rope, shoulders and arms, and those who are emaciated are also at fault with their muscles and bones.

"Don't look at it, my father will definitely not show up at this time, and I didn't see you come to skewers before." Looking at Liu Bei's expression, when Liu Cang teased, he pointed to some straw sandals on his young feet.

"Brother is also making a fortune this time?"

was ridiculed by Liu Cang, Liu Bei smiled freely, and then looked at what Liu Cang pointed to, and turned into a wry smile.

"Why doesn't Haoxuan call a certain big cousin?" Liu Bei was puzzled.

"A certain has been decided, so naturally he can't be rude anymore." Liu Cang's expression was strange, but the sky was faint, and Liu Bei didn't pay attention.

"Haoxuan is blessed and envious as a brother. Alas~ The clan elders want to distribute straw shoes to the villagers to increase the color, how dare the brother make a profit here. ”

"You work a lot on weekdays, so you naturally have to pay more attention to eating, who in the village dares to always go to your house, and you keep food a few times, and don't let people gossip to death." Liu Bei refuted Liu Cang's previous ridicule.

The villagers gathered, and the already brisk footsteps were slightly chaotic, and the sound of soft voices and sticks clashing continued.

The two streams of people passing through the village gradually converged, under the age of forty, it can be said that the old and young masters are in battle, Liu Cang feels that if they all change into black pants and black clothes, the proper axe gang gathers.

This is to fight with a neighboring village, it is not uncommon for the head to break and bleed, and it is not uncommon for an unlucky dead ghost to appear occasionally, but if it is a dead person, the feud between the two families is probably gone.

The man goes out, and the woman looks. There was only cheering and patting his chest, but there was no trace of crying and mourning.

Fight hard, if you are disabled, the old lady will support you. If you die, even if you remarry, the old lady will keep the family business for you and help you raise your son to adulthood.

Well, women in these years are also suffocating, but widows or something, don't make trouble, it's not popular.

"Huh? Look, Liu Deran is also here? Are you two still messing around? "It's like a gang sweeping the streets, and among a group of young people, Liu Cang saw a young man wearing a silk coat who was dressed differently from the villagers, and pointed out to Liu Bei.

Liu Bei raised his eyes to look at the young man, but saw that the young man deliberately tilted his head, as if to show his resistance and dislike for Liu Bei.

"Alas~ It's for my brother to delay Deran, Deran fencing is good, but he is not good at fighting, and he needs to say hello more later." Liu Bei sighed.

"You know that, too? I know what else to shout about King Jing of Zhongshan. Liu Cang rolled his eyes.

"The name of the ancestors, how can you forget it." Liu Bei replied solemnly.

"Are you serious?" Liu Cang was slightly surprised, and looked Liu Bei up and down for a while.

"This... No matter how bad it is, it's also filial piety, right? Seeing Liu Cang's burning eyes, Liu Bei hesitated slightly, and said vaguely for a moment.

Liu Cang was stunned, his expression was strange for a moment, he raised his hand and patted Liu Bei on the shoulder, and finally gave Liu Bei a thumbs up.

Count, why don't you count, brother supports you, you continue to work hard.

Liu Cang and Liu Bei were chatting here, and the group had already walked to the door of Liu Cang's house, and when they saw Liu Bei from a distance, they looked slightly surprised.

"The eldest brother actually came out early, I said that there was no one knocking on your door." A young man said to Liu Bei.

"Da ramming, let's go!" The young man's voice did not fall, and the middle-aged man who led the team raised his hand to greet Liu Cang and Liu Bei.

"Oh!" He replied in a deep voice.

Liu Cang and Liu Bei touched the weapons on their bodies together, followed the flow of people, and walked towards the entrance of the village.

Brisk steps, the villagers were silent, and on the faces of these young men and women, there was a hint of fierceness and excitement at this time.

"Cough, Master Cai's gift is recorded as a brother who has benefited a lot, but I want to thank Haoxuan."

When the young man was moving forward, the young man who was called Liu Deran by Liu Cang walked around Liu Cang, and when he coughed dryly, he said softly.

"My own brother, why should my brother say thank you." Liu Cang shook his head and gave the young man a big smile.

Because of Liu Cang's relationship, or in order to improve Liu Cang's prestige among the clan, although Cai Yong did not accept apprentices in Lousang, he agreed with the village elder to copy the book of rites he annotated.

agreed to circulate it within the Lousang Liu family, and now it is regarded as the Liu family's heritage by the clan elders. With this thing, although it cannot be said that he studied under Cai Yong, in the future, the children of the village will have more confidence in arguing with others when they talk about etiquette outside.

"Haoxuan is fortunate to be valued by Master Cai, and we should thank you for profiting from this." Liu Deran said seriously.

"Hehe, brother is serious." Liu Cang said with a smile, the originally big smile was a little smaller.

Liu Deran's family background is better in the village, and he is more serious, and Liu Cang is not used to dealing with him.

It is enough for the other children in the village to thank them, but Liu Deran and Liu Bei don't need to thank them for this.

Because they are also Lu Zhi's disciples, they are a little thick-skinned, and they are not worse than Cai Yong with Lu Zhi's name.

Liu Cang looked at Liu Bei, who was smiling at Liu Deran beside him, and then looked at Liu Deran, who was full of seriousness. Sure enough, it was easier to listen to Liu Bei.

"Haoxuan should not be modest, my father has a word, Haoxuan has to go to the house to sit and sit at home, and there are a few new hunting dogs in the family, if Haoxuan is interested, take back two to raise." Seeing Liu Cang's respect, Liu Deran approached.

"Hounds? What kind of hound? Liu Cang, who was originally absent-minded, became interested and asked sideways.

Liu Deran's family is a big family in the village, his father is good at management, and the family has the most self-cultivated land in the village, Liu Cang has actually been thinking about raising dogs, but that thing is too humane, and Liu Cang, an ordinary dog, is unwilling to raise it.

"A litter of rare fine dogs can help Haoxuan hunt. However, Haoxuan needs to remember, and don't be discouraged by playthings, now you are valued by Master Cai, and you need to ask Master Cai, who has become a famous teacher, dang... ”

Balabala, Liu Deran seemed to have opened the chatterbox, the corners of Liu Cang's eyebrows began to beat, Liu Bei peeked at Liu Cang on the side, and went to Liu Deran's shoulder in a blink of an eye.

"Haha, De Ran doesn't know, Haoxuan only likes dogs. Brother Wei once listened to what he said, and dogs that are not 100 catties are not fed. When explaining, Liu Bei was inserted between Liu Deran and Liu Cang, Liu Deran frowned, but stopped teaching Liu Cang.

"What's the trouble! Silence! Liu Bei's laughter was slightly louder, attracting the scolding of the man in front of him, and everyone was silent one after another, and Liu Deran took advantage of the situation to remove Liu Bei's arm on him.

And Liu Cang looked at Liu Bei at this time, but Liu Bei was also observing Liu Cang.

"You have a lot to do." Liu Cang whispered to Liu Bei.

"Hey, I hope you don't look like a lover for my brother." Liu Bei chuckled and retorted.

"You're not like a good person." Liu Cang replied, the two laughed softly, the crowd gathered, and the entrance of the village was in sight.
