Chapter 14. Youshui Village
As soon as I entered the village, my eyes suddenly brightened.
Jiang Yang secretly said in his heart: Now he has finally found a safe point.
Looking towards the village, the whole village is full of mulberry trees, rows of houses, not to mention hundreds of households, as well as restaurants, blacksmith shops and so on.
There is a large loess square in the center, and a stage has been set up, and there is a troupe babbling and singing on the stage at this time.
A huge old locust tree stands behind the stage, most of the houses in the village are built around this square, and they are all made of adobe bricks and wood, there is only one road leading to the north, and there is a manor with white walls and black tiles on the north side, which is very magnificent from a distance.
Jiang Yangqi said: "Uncle Wu, what kind of place is that?" β
"There is the Zhuangzi of the Yan family." Foreman Wu explained, "The ancestor of the Yan family has been an official, and he is a prominent family in our Suhe County, and the village leaders of our Youshui Village are also members of the Yan family. β
The Yan family? Jiang Yang's gaze continued to pay attention to the Zhuang courtyard in front of him, and then he withdrew it.
He originally thought that Youshui Village was just a small village, but now it seems that it is not small, this place has everything, but it is indeed worth staying here for a while.
It's just that there aren't many posts mentioning demons and monsters on the forum.,I've only been here for two days.,I ran into two ghosts one after another.,I don't know if it's my luck is "too good", or if there are other reasons.
However, it is said that this place is not as peaceful as the present world, and it is understandable that there are more dangers.
In any case, it is better to be cautious about this aspect of things in the future, and it is best to survive in the village first and improve your strength.
Continuing to walk in, on the loess road in the village, two porters carrying burdens were coming over, and when they saw Foreman Wu and others, they rushed forward with surprise on their faces.
"Uncle Wu, what's going on?"
The surprise of the two immediately attracted the attention of many surrounding villagers, and they also rushed forward.
"Uncle Wu, third son, Uncle Fulin, what's wrong with them?"
"Is this a beast?"
After a short time, there were already many people around the entrance of the village, Wu Zhong looked at the crowd in front of him, and sighed: "I was killed by a ghost." β
"Hell!?"
At this time, a group of craftsmen put the corpses on the square, a total of six, and the bell of "bell, bell" also sounded in the village, and the surrounding villagers slowly gathered in twos and threes.
"Hell-harmed?"
"Where the hell?"
The people around were talking.
Jiang Yang looked at these people, peddlers and pawns, all dressed up, some people discussed, and some people withdrew from the crowd to report the news, and for a while, the whole village was like a vegetable market, and it was mixed.
At this time, a young man rushed to the crowd, and when he saw the corpse on the ground, his face instantly turned several times whiter.
threw himself on the corpse and cried: "Daddy! Father! β
"Three sons, three sons of my family!" A woman dressed in sackcloth came out of the crowd.
The corpses were claimed one after another,
More and more people are flocking to this place.
There are more than 100 families in the village, and even if there is only one person in a household, there must be more than 100 people.
Gathered in an instant, it was the first time Jiang Yang had seen so many people, all kinds of people, men, women and children.
"What harmed my third son?" The woman wiped her tears and exclaimed, "I'm fighting it!" β
"Yes, Uncle Wu, tell me, the third son, Uncle Fulin, Uncle Sheng, Brother Ding...... Kill so many people in our village, even if it's a big insect, let's kill it! For a time, there was a crowd in the village that was excited.
Seeing this, Foreman Wu had no choice but to explain loudly at this time: "They were all killed by the ghosts of Lingweiguan last night. β
"Lingwei Temple?"
"I heard that place is haunted, is it true?"
"What a bird Taoist temple, I'm going to smash it!"
Jiang Yang watched from the sidelines, some people looked excited, and some people watched and discussed, all kinds of things.
At this time, the crowd in the rear suddenly separated, and from the crowd, a group of villagers and militiamen came out, surrounded by a woman in a black silk skirt and in her twenties.
"What happened?" The woman stepped forward and asked.
Although the sound was not loud, the audience quickly quieted down, as if there was a backbone.
"Miss Yan!"
Strict? Jiang Yang was secretly surprised next to him, is this the character from that manor? Sure enough, it is a big family, and the aura is completely different from these villagers.
"What happened?" The woman's lips opened lightly, and although her voice was not loud, the audience quickly quieted down, as if she had a backbone.
Jiang Yang saw the crowd surrounding, and Foreman Wu showed a rare look of respect, as if he was explaining something, and looked over from time to time.
And the woman also glanced this way, but her previous calm look quickly tightened her brows.
Foreman Wu explained in front of the woman, and after half a ring, he saw Miss Yan's face slightly darkened.
She whispered to comfort the families of the deceased, asked them to claim the bodies back, and glanced over here: "Since that's the case, Uncle Wu, don't neglect the guests, I'll deal with the matter here." β
Foreman Wu said yes again and again, and then walked towards Jiang Yang's side.
He opened his mouth and said, "Little Brother Jiang, you've been making a fuss for so long, you're tired too, right?" Let's go eat something and rest first. β
"Great!" Jiang Yang originally thought that six people had died in this village, and maybe there would be a commotion for a while, but he didn't expect it to end so soon.
He glanced at the other side in some surprise: "Is that the young lady of the Yan family?" β
"yes." Foreman Wu said with a smile, "Mrs. Yan has two sons and a daughter, that is, the current eldest master of the Yan family, Miss Yan and the little young master. β
"We are a huge village, and many things depend on them, and Little Brother Jiang will see them when he stays here for a while."
Jiang Yang nodded slightly, revealing a thoughtful expression.
Then Foreman Wu said in a low voice: "In a few days, our village will hold an autumn festival, if you are okay, Brother Jiang, it is better to stay here for a while, and it is good to see the excitement." β
Autumn Festival? He was a little surprised, is the season here different from the present world? Then it occurred to him that the plums he had seen on the side of the road had fallen, and it seemed that it was going to be autumn.
It's only July 8, so it's not the same.
"Is this okay?" Jiang Yang was surprised.
"That's what Miss Yan meant." Foreman Wu hurriedly explained with a smile.
That Miss Yan? He glanced at the head again in surprise, thinking to himself that he had nowhere to go, and it would be okay to stay here for a few more days.
It just so happens that you can also enhance your strength a little more and figure out the situation at the same time.
He nodded: "Thank you very much, then." β
β¦β¦
Foreman Wu lives in the northeast of the village, and it is also a house made of adobe bricks and wood, but it is slightly larger than the others.
Foreman Wu also has a son at home, who is two years older than Jiang Yang.
Fortunately, there were enough rooms in the house, and Jiang Yang was arranged in the inner room on the west side.
After eating, it was almost completely dark, Jiang Yang took hot water and went to sleep after washing.
I'm afraid this is the first time he has slept in this world, and he is still staying in someone else's house, under the fence, and he really has an inexplicable feeling in his heart.
The wooden shelf bed is surrounded by a new gauze tent, which may be specially prepared for mosquitoes in this weather.
He untied the peachwood sword and put it on the head of the bed, and touched it in his arms, the blood-patterned jade was still there, he got a rope, put the jade on and hung it around his neck, such a precious thing, he couldn't accidentally get rid of it.
Then check out the Characters panel.

The sword spectrum has not yet been studied, but he is not in a hurry, he has a good rest today, recuperates, and early tomorrow morning, he can take a good look and practice.
And this village, maybe you can also take the opportunity to explore, although you can't stay for a long time, but if you can explore a few tasks and get some items that will help you, after leaving here, you will be more sure of self-preservation.
After all, there is still an old grandmother waiting outside the village to invite herself to drink milk tea, so you can't be careless.
Thinking like this, Jiang Yang felt his eyelids gradually sink into his eyes.
It's time to sleep.
He closed his eyes, only to feel a heavy darkness coming over him.
I fell asleep in an instant.
By the time I woke up, it seemed to be already dawning.
The sunlight was shining through the papier-mΓ’chΓ© windows.
Jiang Yang subconsciously covered his eyes with his hands, stretched his waist hard, and then slowly opened his eyes.
What a good night's sleep!
After getting dressed, he walked towards the door, and at this time, he saw that Foreman Wu was ready to go out.
"Uncle Wu, are you going out to work again today?"
"Of course." Foreman Wu grinned and said, "There are still a bunch of people in the village pointing at us for dinner, and it won't be possible if we don't start work." β
"Is it so urgent?" Jiang Yang frowned, thinking about it, he was the foreman, and many people must be waiting for him to start working, but looking at the outside of the village, "That's ...... What about those things? β
"That's not a worry." Foreman Wu said, "We usually go out with a large group of people, if there are many people, we can drive it away, and it is broad daylight, and that thing will not stay there all the time." β
Can you drive away if there are too many people? Jiang Yang thought in his heart, this is a lot more reassuring.
This shows that it is not as difficult to deal with as the red-clothed ghosts.
In this way, if you meet this thing during the day, you can be regarded as a monster among ghosts?
But ghosts, even if they are small monsters, are not something that ordinary people can deal with.
"Early in the morning, let's not talk about this." Foreman Wu then said, "How did little brother Jiang sleep last night?" β
"I slept well."
"That's good, that's good."
Jiang Yang glanced into the room: "Where is Brother Yuan?" β
Wu Yuan is also Uncle Wu's son.
"I went out early in the morning to do my work."
"Uh." Jiang Yang's face was full of embarrassment, and he looked like he was a lazy worm.
According to Foreman Wu, his son is two years older than himself, and now he is almost self-reliant.
In comparison, I live a comfortable life.
In this atmosphere, Jiang Yang felt that he was going to step up.
