Chapter 500: Blackwater Village

"Sister, what kind of place is this?"

Walking up to the village women, I asked with a smile on my face.

"Where are you from, young man?"

Several village women suddenly stopped what they were doing and looked at me curiously.

"Oh, I'm from out of town, and I accidentally got lost, and I hope my eldest sister will give me some guidance." Publish immediately

I said politely.

"Our village, called Heishui Village, is located in a remote area, and ordinary people can't find it, so it's normal for you to get lost here."

An eldest sister who seemed to be very talkative took the initiative to introduce me.

"Oh, the stone tablet at the entrance of the village says the name of our village."

I followed the village woman's hope, and found that there was a road into the village not far away, and next to the entrance stood a stone monument, the three big characters of Heishui Village, which immediately caught my eye.

According to my memory, this area is obviously Xiushui Town, so how did this Blackwater Village appear?

My brain was thinking quickly, and it suddenly occurred to me that when I was looking for information about Xiushui Town before, I had seen a record.

According to records, a hundred years ago, the area around Xudu was deeply affected by floods, and many villages were completely submerged in several major floods and disappeared into the long river of history.

It is only in recent decades that many villages have reappeared along the Jinjiang River after the official efforts to clean up the river, and it is precisely in these decades that Xiushui Town has redeveloped.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but have a guess in my mind.

Heishui Village, where I am now, is probably one of the countless villages that disappeared along the Jinjiang River when the flood raged a hundred years ago!

In this way, the so-called good land was a fierce place a hundred years ago, and the good and evil land may be transformed into each other, and it seems that even Hu Zihua has not understood the true connotation of the good and evil place that Master Jing Shen said.

"Eldest sister, have there been other outsiders who have come to us before me?"

I wanted to inquire about the traces of Liao Xian'er and her party, so I couldn't help but ask the village woman.

"Yes, about an hour ago, a beautiful woman came to our village with a group of people, and they were going to leave tomorrow after the wedding feast."

The village woman said with a grin.

When I heard this, I couldn't help but feel a move in my heart, Liao Xian'er's goal is so clear, it seems that she already knows the traces of the characters, so I can't miss it.

"Eldest sister, whose family is going to hold a wedding banquet, and even outsiders are attracted to come?"

I asked, pretending to be nonchalant.

"Hey, it's the village chief's son, who else can there be."

The eldest sister said: "The son of the village chief's family, he is thirty years old, because of his disability, he has not found a wife, not long ago, an old woman in the neighboring village introduced a silly girl, the village chief agreed without even thinking about it, and was ready to marry the two tomorrow." ”

"Actually, this is very understandable, as long as you can help him inherit the old Chen family, what can you do if you are stupid, anyway, a woman, just be able to have children."

The eldest sister continued to chatter.

As I listened to my eldest sister's story, I began to think about my next move.

"Eldest sister, is there a hotel in our village, I plan to stay for one night, I haven't participated in the wedding banquet in the mountain village, and I want to be lively."

I said with a smile.

"Alas, we are in the middle of nowhere, and we have no hotels."

The eldest sister shook her head, then remembered something, and hurriedly said: "By the way, I have a vacant room at home, if you don't dislike it, you can make up for the night." ”

"Thank you so much!"

I just want to find a place to stay as soon as possible, so I don't care about anything else, and I quickly express my gratitude to my eldest sister.

The eldest sister smiled and waved her hand, and after saying goodbye to the other village women, she led me into Heishui Village, her home.

The eldest sister's home is located on the west side of the village, a fenced courtyard, three thatched huts, plus a stove room, and that's all.

As soon as I walked into the courtyard, I smelled a sour smell, as if something had been left for a long time to rot, and it made me sick to my stomach.

I resisted the discomfort in my heart, followed behind my eldest sister, and saw her push open a hut on the far right.

There were a lot of miscellaneous items piled up in the room, a wooden bed in the corner, and nothing else.

"Young man, this was supposed to be a utility room, so you can make do with it for one night." 、

The eldest sister said with some embarrassment.

"Gee, that's pretty good, thank you so much."

I graciously thank you.

"Okay, you can rest for a while, I'll go cook, and I'll call you when it's ready."

The eldest sister smiled, turned away, and went into the stove, and soon I saw that smoke began to rise from the chimney of the stove.

I took the opportunity to clean the house, and as soon as I finished cleaning up, my eldest sister had already pushed the door in.

"Young man, the meal is ready, hurry up and eat."

The dining table is placed in the courtyard, a bowl of white porridge, the rice grains in it are clearly countable, a black nest head, and a plate of pickles that exude a sour smell, it is today's dinner.

"Young man, the conditions in our countryside are not as good as outside, so you should just eat something, otherwise you will be hungry and unable to sleep at night."

Seeing that I didn't move the chopsticks for a long time, the eldest sister enthusiastically persuaded me.

"Thank you, eldest sister, I filled the river with water today, and I'm really not hungry now, so you can eat first."

I smiled and declined.

This village is full of weirdness, of course I don't dare to eat indiscriminately, so I can only find a reason to perfunctory.

"Alright then, I'll start first, and I can eat meat tomorrow anyway!"

The eldest sister chewed on her nest head, but her eyes kept shining, and she seemed to have begun to imagine the scene of eating meat tomorrow.

"By the way, eldest sister, I will attend the wedding banquet tomorrow, but what is the point of paying attention, do you want to give gift money?"

I wanted to know about tomorrow's wedding banquet, so I took the opportunity to ask.

"Hey, we will never pour money, and we usually send food when we get married."

"Deliver food?"

I was stunned: "But I didn't have any food with me, so I can't attend the wedding banquet?" ”

"Well...... this"

The eldest sister thought for a few seconds, and then said: "In this way, I still have a little food at home, I can give you a bucket of rice, and when the time comes, you can hand it over to the village chief, and you can participate in the wedding banquet." ”

"Oh, that's embarrassing, why don't I buy it with money?"

As I spoke, I reached for money in my pocket, ready to be paid.

"No, I can't spend the money you gave, if you really want to thank me......"

The eldest sister looked around me: "You can exchange this coat, my old man hasn't bought new clothes for several years, and he can be decent in your clothes." ”

"Can you promise, young man?"
