Chapter 100: Planting Tea
Grunt.
In the quiet air, Qin Huan's stomach screamed uncontrollably.
Shi Beiyan couldn't help but smile, "There will always be a way, let's go back to the village to eat something first." ”
Qin Huan pursed his lips, pretending that Shi Yi's stomach was screaming, and walked in the first row of the village without a red face and a heartbeat.
In the evening, the village will also provide dinner at the porridge shack, and regardless of men, women, children, rich and poor, as long as they line up in front of the porridge shack, they will receive delicious meals.
There are more people queuing in the evening than at noon, and many people who seem to be from a decent family also receive their meals here.
The three of them stopped under the pavilion, Qin Huan looked at Liu Ji's logo on the porridge shed, and couldn't help but sigh, "Liu Youwan has provided food for the entire village by himself." ”
The old man who was also enjoying the cool, his face was ruddy after drinking wine, and he took her words, "What's more, the old houses in the village rely on good people to help us renovate, and there are also fellow villagers who have no livelihood, and they are also taken in by good people and arranged for us to make a living." ”
Liu Youwan has a lot of good deeds, and the old man is full of praise, "Good people often send money and things to the people in the village, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the reincarnation of the god of the day!" ”
The first time Qin Huan heard about the God of Day, Shi Beiyan glanced at Shi Yi, and Shi Yi immediately asked, "Old lady, what kind of god is the God of Day?" ”
The old man drank half a pot of wine, and many village rules were forgotten, he pointed at Shi Yi and burped.
"Hiccup, you are from out of town, the god of day is the patron saint of our village, and it is all thanks to the manifestation of the god of day, our village can be prosperous so far."
Qin Huan said with a smile, "I see that the people in the village are industrious and simple, why do they need gods, such a prosperous scene, everyone works hard." ”
The old man held the wine jug and shook his head, "Where is the current Taoyuan Village without God, what is the use of us suffering for most of our lives, Taoyuan Village in the past was a desperate deserted village, only God can change it." ”
"God doesn't kill."
Shi Beiyan said lightly, making the old man instantly raise his voice, "What did you say!" ”
In order to avoid angering the old man, Shi Beiyan covered up and said, "I heard that some places will use living sacrifices, how is such a god different from murder?" ”
"You know what! Everything in the world has yin and yang, Maitreya protects all things during the day, and the night god Rakshasa punishes the world. The sacrificer did not die, but was baptized by a rakshasa and became the guardian spirit of the night! ”
The old man had obviously drunk too much, but his memory of God was still deep.
Qin Huan and the three of them didn't know much about Taoyuan Village, so they just took this opportunity to inquire, "What day and night, old lady, you are blind." ”
The old man was excited, "I saw with my own eyes that the night god came down and took away the soul of the guardian spirit, how can it be fake!" ”
Qin Huan asked rhetorically, "The soul is ethereal, have you seen it?" ”
The old man snorted coldly, "Why can't I, the old man has also been fortunate enough to enter Tower Mountain, and has seen the spectacular scene of the sacrificer's real body turning into a clay sculpture and flying into a spirit!" ”
The three of them looked at each other, and Shi Beiyan spoke, "In other words, Tashan will really sacrifice with a living person." ”
"These people are born ugly, and it is their glory to be baptized by the god of the night, and only the god of the night can wash away their sins and give them a new life." The old man only said it happily, but he forgot that Tashan was taboo and was not allowed to talk about it to outsiders.
Shi Yi asked, "What kind of god is the god of the night?" ”
"The god of day is in charge of the rise and fall of the day, the god of night is in charge of the sins of hell, and the two gods are the patron saints of our Taoyuan Village, bless us with eternal prosperity."
The old man took a big sip of wine, his cheeks reddened even more, and he talked more and more.
"In the drought a few years ago, how many people starved to death, if it weren't for the blessing of the two gods, so that the farmland of Taoyuan Village would not be declining, how could we be where we are now.
Don't talk about it far away, let's just say that now, the village is endless, the crops who used to farm are now working with good people, and their wages have tripled. ”
Qin Huan's eyes moved, "What kind of business does Liu Shanren do, how can he be so rich?" ”
The old man hiccuped again, "More than half of the shops in the village are opened by him, and there are tea plants or something, in short, the business is big, and there is a shortage of people at all times." ”
It's tea planting again, from the village chief to Song Ping, even Liu Youwan is also doing tea trading, is it possible that there is a connection between them.
Qin Huan glanced at the other side, "Old lady, your body and bones look very strong, why don't you follow the good people." ”
The old man waved his hand, "I'm too old and have no strength, and the good people are all young and strong men, anyway, the village doesn't have to worry about eating and drinking, so it's good for us to drink idle." ”
The old man drank while talking, Qin Huan still wanted to ask something, so the old man drunk himself, leaned on the gazebo and hugged the pillar and fell asleep.
Qin Huan shook him, the old man was drunk, and it was all nonsense.
She turned around, "You need a large area of mountainous land to grow tea, and there are many crops around, but I haven't seen a tea plantation." ”
Shi Yi has touched a few times in Taoyuan Village, and he has indeed never seen a tea plantation.
"Tower Hill." Shi Beiyan said, this is also the only place where tea can be grown.
"Does the place where tea is grown need to be guarded?" Qin Huan hugged his arms and looked at the sky, "Unless, he doesn't grow tea." ”
The rainbow glow flew by, the moonlight climbed to the top of the night, and a stranger was lit in a house on the edge of the village.
The air leaked from the window, the candles flickered on and off, the oil burned halfway, and the five people in the room reached a consensus.
Shi Beiyan walked out of the mute girl's house, and Qin Huan and Shi Yi walked in with the prepared disguise props and the eyes of the four brothers and sisters of the Liang family.
The dumb girl hid behind the three siblings, and as Qin Huan and Shi Yi entered the house, Liang Er wavered, "Will we anger the night god like this?" ”
The faces of the four brothers and sisters of the Liang family are very similar, they all have long faces, their chins are unusually prominent, Liang Er has many spots on his face, he put his head in his hair, and his voice trembled slightly.
Qin Huan knew the source of what caused them to be like this, "Do you believe in God?" She asked.
The four brothers and sisters of the Liang family all lowered their eyes.
The wealth of Taoyuan Village has nothing to do with them, they are born with rejection, and from childhood to adulthood, the villagers either throw stones or avoid them when they see them.
Only once a year at the altar ceremony, the village will think of them.
Liang Da clenched his fists, "Even if there is a god, God has never taken care of our family, as long as I can save the dumb girl, I am willing to cooperate with you!" ”
"I would too." Liang Sanmei nodded quietly and tugged at Liang Er's sleeve.
Liang Er gritted his teeth, "For the sake of the dumb sister, death is death!" ”
Liang Da stood at the front and raised his head, "You are really Brother Fang Ye's friends, can you really let the dumb girl survive?" ”
Qin Huan looked sideways, it turned out that the Liang family and Fang Ye knew each other, no wonder "Shi Beize" could convince them so quickly.
"It's hard to chase a horse if you say it." Shi Beiyan spoke.
Liang Da advised, "You are a foreigner, there are some things you don't know, Taoyuan Village existed in the previous dynasty, and there has been little contact with the outside world, the ancestors of the village have learned to communicate with the animals, the village chief is especially good at it, there are many fierce beasts domesticated in Tashan, you have to be careful." ”
