Chapter Sixty-Four: An Uninvited Guest in the Dirt Village
The next day, it began to rain lightly.
Lin Xi still got up very early, although he didn't have to practice swordsmanship, but it should be because he had developed a habit and couldn't sleep for a long time.
Looking at the light rain, Lin Xi couldn't help but sigh, time flies so fast.
It didn't take long for this to happen, and it came to spring, I vaguely remember that when Lin Xi first returned home, it was still a cold winter, and last year's winter was also fast enough, and the cold was a lot heavier, so this year's spring is also considered to be fast, otherwise it should be quite cold at this time. Although I learned a lot, I also lost a lot.
But now Lin Xi will not be as immersed in sadness as before, but occasionally recall, he will still be a little moved.
"Lao Xu, it's spring, and you always said that this spring is the most beautiful season of the year, but I don't think so."
"I think it's so gloomy, and it rains from time to time, which makes me feel even more annoyed."
In fact, compared to the spring when it rains every day, Lin Xi still prefers summer.
After moving my muscles and bones, it was time for breakfast, and although it was not too luxurious, it was much better than a large cake.
Don't say it, this is too much bread, and I'm still a little unaccustomed to eating these others.
I don't know what Xiao Yao'er is doing at this time?
Lin Xi thought.
Soon the young doctor also came to Lin Xi's hospital, perhaps because he couldn't stay any longer, the first thing the young doctor said was to ask Lin Xi: "When are we leaving?" ”
This surprised Lin Xi, but he didn't expect this guy to be a workaholic?
I have good food and drink for you in my house, why are you in such a hurry to work?
Of course, this can't be said, it's good to have this hard work, so Lin Xi won't have to go to him by himself.
"Hmmm......"
Lin Xi looked up at the sky, and the rain was obviously much lighter now than in the early morning.
"Let's go now."
Xiao Ling'er didn't know what Lin Xi was going to do, but they still thoughtfully prepared some things for Lin Xi to take with them, especially peach blossoms, and Xiao Ling'er wiped them for it.
Lin Xi walked in front, and the young doctor naturally followed behind.
Because he didn't look very big in the first place, with that relatively large medicine box, it couldn't help but look a little funny.
But don't say it, although this young doctor is small, his steps are on par with Lin Xi.
Lin Xi is now a practitioner, how can an ordinary person keep up with his footsteps? But the young doctor did not fall behind, and his steps were fast.
After coming to the stable, Lin Xi took out two horses and tentatively asked the young doctor, "Do you know how to ride a horse?" ”
The young doctor nodded, indicating that he would ride.
"Then you have to follow closely, it's still a light rain, if you don't pay attention, maybe I won't be in your sight."
"You're looking down on people." The young doctor said, "I still know a little about horseback riding. ”
Hearing the young doctor say this, Lin Xi didn't say anything, waved the reins and ran out of the house.
As soon as Lin Xi and the young doctor left the house, the sky seemed to be watching, and it immediately rained heavily.
But fortunately, Lin Xi and the others have a hat, otherwise they would be in trouble.
Because he hates rain, Lin Xi will bring a hat to go forward as long as he sees it, and over time this has become a habit of Lin Xi, as long as he goes, he will think about whether to bring a hat, if it rains, it will be troublesome.
Two horses galloped in the heavy rain.
The yellow mud and the rain were trampled up by the horse's hooves, and the young doctor seemed to have two brushes, which were not pulled apart much, but he always maintained the position of a horse with Lin Xi.
————
At the same time, some people on horseback came here in the mulched village.
"Call your village chief out!"
One shouted to the onlookers.
Listening to their tone, they should have done this kind of thing a lot.
The villagers of the mulched village also quickly gathered around, and they didn't know what the people were doing.
But after listening to the shouts of the people in the capital, someone still hurried to call the village chief.
"Who are they?"
"See, those guys seem to have swords around their waists."
"Ahh Then we'll be fine, right? ”
"It should be fine, there should be nothing wrong with this daylight."
The people below were chattering, and the rain gradually became heavier, and the atmosphere became a little depressing.
"Shut up!"
"It's endless. A bunch of stinky rats! ”
One said.
Hearing this, the villagers of the Covered Earth Village did not dare to say anything at all.
One is because they don't know who these are, and the other is because these guys have weapons in their hands and can't act rashly.
Although no one dared to say anything, there were still people who made annoyed expressions at them.
It happened that one of the other people in the group saw this expression, and dismounted and came to the man.
directly pulled out the man with one hand and slammed him to the ground.
"What, you're not convinced?"
The villager from the Mulched Village got up and did not respond, but silently returned to the side. Naturally, the clothes on his body were covered in mud.
But how could those guys let the villager of the Mulch Village go away like this, and immediately got off the horse again.
and threw the man to the ground.
"Our Senior Brother Liao asked you, didn't you hear it?"
As he spoke, he made up for the villager in the mulched village.
The villager of the earth-covered village naturally had a temper, and instantly got up and punched the man in the face.
"Bump!"
Because the villagers of these soil-covered villages often work in the fields, their natural strength should not be underestimated, and although they were not as strong as those cultivators, they still beat that person back a few steps one after another.
"You stinky rat!!"
The man who was beaten took out the long sword at his waist and slashed at the villager in the village.
The women around them also covered their eyes in fear when they saw this scene, but no one dared to come forward to help. Even if you want to help, don't stop your own girls.
Just as the man's sword was about to fall, a voice interrupted it.
"Wait!!"
Everyone looked to the side where the voice was spoken, and saw a white-haired old man with a ricketed back, walking from the side with a cane, this person was the village chief of Baotu Village, followed by several middle-aged men, and one of the middle-aged men behind him was Xiao Yao'er's father.
Just now, a villager ran to call the village chief, and it happened that Xiao Yao'er's father was chatting with the village chief about some things, and after hearing the man's story, Xiao Yao'er's father also followed the village chief to the entrance of the village, and also called a few people who were more powerful in the village. If you really start to do it at that time, you won't be too passive.
After hearing the voice, those people who didn't know why naturally stopped what they were doing.
The same was true of the villager who was about to cut down to the Mulching Village, looking at the village chief with a puzzled expression, thinking that it was a big man, because there were several villagers who looked very strong behind him.
The man put down his sword and asked, "Who are you who dare to hinder my errands?" ”
The village chief of the Tutu Village hurriedly came to the man and said respectfully: "The little one is the village chief here, I don't know what the adults are here for?" ”
As he spoke, he stopped the beaten villager behind his back.
Hearing that it was just a villager from the soil-covered village, the man naturally had no scruples: "You are the village chief here?" ”
"The little one is exactly."
"Your villager injured me just now, as long as you hand him over, I will consider sparing your village's life, otherwise you will all be killed and fed to the dogs!"
The last few words, the man almost shouted.
You can see that the man is extremely angry.
The person behind him, known as Senior Brother Liao, just watched silently and didn't make a sound to stop him.
"That'...... That one...... My lord...... This...... Can you spare him for the sake of him as a child? ”
"I ...... We can lose money, we can give you grain. ”
Hearing the village chief's words, the man just chuckled, "Hahahaha...... Losing money, how much money do you have to lose? ”
"What can you pigs do with food that you pigs don't eat?"
The man's attitude was extremely arrogant, and he didn't give him a little face as the village head, so to speak, he didn't give any face to the villagers of the covered village.
After hearing the guy say that the pigs didn't eat anything for the grain they had worked so hard to grow, the villagers of the Covered Earth Village gritted their teeth and their fingers clicked.
"Then don't want food, then don't want food, my lord, if you open your mouth, if you want us to take it, we will give it all."
At this time, Senior Brother Liao, who was on the side, changed his face, pulled the man over, and muttered a few words in his ear, and the man's face changed instantly: "No, I can't swallow this breath." ”
"It's not easy to do it now, and who knows how that man died when we're gone."
After saying that, both of them showed extremely eerie smiles.
"Since you have said so, village chief, we are not unreasonable people."
"But...... I'm afraid you won't agree. ”
"Your Excellency, as long as we can do it."
"I heard that there is an extremely miraculous stone in your village, and if this stone is given to us, we will not care about this trivial matter."
Hearing the man's words, the village chief's heart was also shocked, and he didn't know where this guy knew about this stone.
Because this stone was found a few months ago, when someone was building a house and digging the foundation, when the stone was discovered, it could be described as extremely dazzling, glowing with a very strong yellow light.
Everyone in the village, who had never seen much of the world, was shocked by this scene.
But everyone still knew that this was an extraordinary thing, so they sent it to the ancestral shrine and hid it.
"My lord, you're embarrassed, how can there be any magical stones in a small place like ours, and there are some pine stones."
"Don't play stupid here!"
"Either give me death, I'm looking for it myself, or hand it over to me obediently." The man persecuted.
The village chief's face turned blue instantly.
"What nonsense to talk to them."
As he spoke, a fist the size of a sandbag flew towards Senior Brother Liao......
