Chapter 43: The Pig Killing Feast
One hundred and twenty-seven years of "Cloud Country", on this day, Song Ciwan opened his eyes in the fog.
The crowd around her was bustling and boiling.
A small village appears in front of it, full of green mountains and green waters, full of life. In the village, there are rows of houses, and smoke rises from the rooftops, and the smell of food wafts in the wind, hooking people's stomachs like drums, and gluttonous insects turn the sky.
"Village, village...... A village with living people......"
The people screamed, and some of them were heavily dressed, and even tore their cumbersome robes on the spot, and rushed towards the village with their legs drawn, looking almost mad.
Yes, the insane is the majority.
How can a group of people fleeing thousands of miles react when they suddenly see an oasis in the devastated mountains and rivers?
Therefore, the crazy must be the majority, only those like Song Ciwan and Zhou Damiang, who have recently been coerced into the team, may still be able to retain three points of reason.
But they also have to rush, because everyone around them is rushing, and if you don't rush, it's not just a matter of being left behind. You may also be pushed, trampled on, and killed instantly!
Song Ciwan pulled Aunt Zhou, Aunt Zhou held her hand, and the two of them surged with the crowd together. Obviously, there are a lot of people around, and they are like a small lonely boat drifting in the sea, panicked and lonely.
Crowded, they were crowded to the point where they could only hear a chaotic scream, and many excited shouts mixed in with it.
Such shouts can always evoke some bad memories in people's hearts.
Aunt Zhou sighed and couldn't help but say sadly: "Yueniang, this village will be destroyed like our Bixi Village......"
As soon as the words fell, a shocking sound of gongs and drums suddenly sounded in the village ahead.
Bell Bell Bell –
Qiang Qiang Qiang –
What happened?
But in the sound of gongs and drums, a high ladder was erected.
There was a strong man who was nine feet tall and looked like a giant, carrying a pig on his left shoulder and a pig on his right shoulder, and walked up the high ladder with a long smile.
What a stunning sight is this?
I saw the strong man carrying the pig with a bang, and the ground shook with every step, and the high platform shook even more, so that people were worried that it would fall apart at any time.
The fleeing team couldn't help but stop running wildly, people were almost stunned, all kinds of chaotic sounds dissipated unconsciously, and the crowd was so quiet that it could be heard for a while.
Only the strong man on the high platform smiled, and said loudly: "Meeting is fate, you have traveled hard, since you have come to our rich village today, then there is no need to say more, the village will definitely entertain you, children, come, the pig killing banquet will start!" ”
As the words fell, a line of strong men came out of the village in a neat row. Although these strong men are not as magnificent as the giants on the high platform, they are also very strong. What's more, everyone is carrying a fat pig.
There are so many pigs, there are dozens of them!
An incredulous discussion began to erupt in the ranks of the escapees: "What do they mean?" Did I hear me right? ”
"It seems that yes, they want to kill pigs to entertain us!"
"There are such fools? Ahh Are there such good people? ”
……
And the reality is, it doesn't matter if he's a fool or a good person, no matter what, the other side is really killing pigs!
Dozens of pigs, in this way, in the big open space in front of the village, were put into the ground with white knives by strong men...... Kill them all.
Men, women, and children poured out of the village, some carrying buckets, some setting up pots to light the fire, and some brandishing iron spoons ready to show off their cooking skills.
There are also many children running happily between the stoves, this scene of peace and abundance, but also warm and inclusive, makes the victims of the famine as if in a dream, there is no reason to rejoice.
The sage said: Knowing etiquette is always good.
The victims were accustomed to smashing and looting, which was indeed ferocious and vicious, and could be more terrifying than bandits.
However, people's hearts are actually yearning for light-
Or, to be more precise, no matter how evil a person is, he often doesn't necessarily want others to think that he is evil.
I can't say that they still hope that in the eyes of others, they are actually decent and good people!
So, if you can be decent, who wouldn't want to be decent?
Therefore, under the warm hospitality of the villagers of Fugui Village, most of the victims unconsciously let go of their original anger.
They only think of themselves as poor people who are suffering, and they completely forget what evil they have done along the way.
Under the hospitality of the villagers, they served on the table, entered the table, and happily ate the pig killing feast.
During the banquet, the cup was pushed and changed, and there was laughter.
Everyone introduced each other's origins and told stories, and gradually began to change from strange to familiar.
The villager asked, "Is there really no one in your house?" Just live you one? ”
The victims sighed: "From Shanbei County, this road is more than a thousand miles!" The old lady couldn't hold it and died of thirst on the road. My mother-in-law secretly cut off my fingers behind my back and fed blood to the children. As a result, she bled to death herself, and her child also had a fever...... Bitter, too bitter! ”
Speaking of this, I can't help but choke up with emotion.
The villagers persuaded: "No matter how much suffering there is, it will always be over, but fortunately, you have come to our rich village now and settled here." Eat more things first, nourish your spirit and body, and then go back and our village chief will arrange a house for you, marry a daughter-in-law, and have a bunch of cubs, won't this life be over? ”
The persuasion of the villagers was very good, and the disaster victim couldn't help but be surprised: "At the foot of the rich village? Me, can I? ”
The villager said, "Of course, not only you can, but everyone who is here here can do it." ”
On the other side, the strong man who looked like a giant smiled and said, "Yes! Encounters are fateful, and gatherings are relatives and friends. Since everyone is here, let's settle in our rich village! ”
"Our rich village, everyone who comes is a guest, and everyone who comes refuses to come. Come on, come on! Everyone ate and drank openly. The big fat pigs we have in our village are not enough to kill again, hahaha! ”
He is the village chief of Fugui Village.
The words of the giant village chief completely opened up the atmosphere.
The victims were so excited and moved that the aroma of the food was so intoxicating that they didn't have to drink alcohol, they just needed to stuff the fragrant pork into their mouths one by one, and the laughter could go on endlessly.
Hahaha, hahaha-
The village was full of laughter.
Song Ciwan and Aunt Zhou were also brought to the table, surrounded by victims on the same road, and also accompanied by the eldest lady and daughter-in-law of Fugui Village.
The enthusiasm of the eldest lady and daughter-in-law is the same as that of other villagers, they sandwich meat for Song Ciwan and Zhou Damiang.
And persuaded vigorously: "Quick, quick, eat more." Look at you skinny ones! I'm afraid I've endured a lot of hardships along the way, right? ”
They spoke softly and kindly. looked at Song Ciwan's eyes not at all like he was looking at someone he met for the first time, but like he was looking at his cherished objects.
With a ...... The distress of the object has not been maintained.
