Chapter 150: Xiao Hua enters the village
Xiao Gui took Mu Cheng to sit on a table, and the scene in front of Mu Cheng was like a painting of a banquet reunion, warm and solemn. Several long tables are filled with a variety of delicacies and aromas. The white tableware shining with silver light is like a delicate work of art, setting off the prosperity and simple beauty of the village.
Family members sit around the dining table and talk to each other about life and family traditions. Laughter and laughter mingle in the air, filling the atmosphere with warmth and joy. With kind smiles on their faces, the elders kindly inquired about the current situation of the younger generation, conveying the family's warm care and expectations for the future.
Everyone is immersed in the enjoyment of food, tasting traditional hometown dishes and family-made delicacies. The food has a rich variety of flavors and tastes, and it is mouth-watering. Culinary skills passed down through generations are perfectly displayed in each dish, demonstrating the love and pursuit of food.
The room is filled with a strong appetite atmosphere, and everyone enjoys the moment of dining, feeling the cohesion and warmth of the family. Dining here is not only a physical need, but also a symbol of family culture and unity. In this scene, people rely on each other and share the prosperity and beauty of the family.
Xiao Gui warmly beckoned Mu Cheng to use the tableware, Mu Cheng felt that this scene was very strange, he was inexplicably pulled to eat, but he did not see the existence of any ceremony. There were still people in the village who were observing him just now, but when he came here, he felt like everyone else, and everything became casual.
Mu Cheng asked Xiao Gui, "Are we here just to have a meal?" Xiao Gui didn't answer directly, he helped Mu Cheng clip a piece of chicken, and said, "This is Old Man Xu's specialty, try it." Mu Cheng gently picked up the chicken and put it in his mouth, chewing it and feeling that it tasted really good. As soon as he swallowed, he had the feeling that everyone around him seemed to be watching him. He looked around again, and everything was back to normal. He wondered in his heart, could it be that he had hallucinated just now?
Suddenly, a man hurriedly ran in, walked straight to Xiao Changfeng's side, and whispered something to him. Mu Cheng noticed that the man's brows tightened after hearing this, and then a gleam flashed in his eyes, and then left with him. This episode didn't have much impact on Mu Cheng, he didn't know Xiao Changfeng, he just waited for the meal to finish and see what Xiao Gui would do next. He was desperate to figure out what was going on here.
Xiao Changfeng was taken to the entrance of the village, and sure enough, he saw another stranger coming, Xiao Hua was very nervous at this time, surrounded by a group of strange people, and pointed at her. Xiao Hua followed the traces of Mu Cheng's walk and came across an old elm tree, and she came here inexplicably. She was surprised at the time, but she saw a crowd not far away, so she walked in that direction and ran into two people. She found the architecture and the people dressed a little strangely, but she herself dressed even more strangely, and she also wore evening gowns. She wanted to open her mouth to ask, but when she saw that the other party was a man, she didn't dare to say anything, so she could only wait quietly. As a result, two men passed by and saw that she didn't leave, which frightened her. She wanted to leave quickly, but at some point someone came, and the more she tried to leave, the more people surrounded her, and as a result, she yelled. But the other party still ignored her, but when the old village chief Xiao Changfeng arrived, he saw Xiao Hua yelling there.
Xiao Changfeng walked over, and he said, "Girl, calm down, a celebration is being held in the village, and it is not allowed to make noise here." Xiao Hua saw that someone finally spoke, and that person was very old, and the people around him seemed to respect him, so she hurriedly asked, "Hello, uncle!" I want to ask where this is? Have you ever seen a height ......" Xiao Hua inquired about what place this was, and wanted to ask if anyone had seen Mu Cheng.
Xiao Changfeng heard that this woman was looking for Mu Cheng, and it seemed that after trapping Mu Cheng, he left him safely, and this woman could just come in handy. Then he said to Xiao Hua: "Girl, I have seen the person you mentioned, but he will not come back until tomorrow, and now the village is holding a celebration, you are a foreigner, you can't participate." I'll take you to find a place to stay, and tomorrow when the person you said comes back, I'll bring him to you, how about it? ”
When Xiao Hua heard that Mu Cheng was actually here, he suddenly relaxed a lot. She readily agreed to Xiao Changfeng's suggestion. Xiao Changfeng took her to a residence, he asked Xiao Hua to wait here, he went in a few minutes, took a woman out, and said to Xiao Hua: "You just stay here for a while, tomorrow I will bring the person you said over." Xiao Hua saw that it was a woman, and she was quite good-looking, so he agreed.
After Xiao Changfeng left, Xiao Hua followed the woman in, introduced each other, and knew that the woman's name was Yinfeng. Xiao Hua borrowed a set of clothes from Yinfeng and put them on, Yinfeng looked at Xiao Hua and suddenly tears flowed from his eyes, Xiao Hua didn't know why, and hurriedly asked what was going on, Yinfeng held back his tears and did not answer.
Xiao Hua and Yinfeng chatted briefly together, and when Xiao Hua learned that the village was deserted, she suddenly thought that she had participated in a drinking party, and no matter how she walked, at least the walking distance would not be too far. This should be a labyrinth-like place, and she is wondering how to leave after meeting Mu Cheng tomorrow. But Yinfeng means that after meeting tomorrow, he will find a place to stay in the village and prepare for a long-term life. Xiao Hua felt that Yinfeng should be a person who had never left the village, and it was not interesting to reason with her.
Yinfeng saw that Xiao Hua didn't mean to say any more, so she went to the kitchen to get busy, Xiao Hua didn't mean to help, she sat in the small courtyard and admired the beautiful sky. Yinfeng burned the fire, stir-fried vegetables, looked at Xiao Hua in the courtyard, and the past came to his heart.
Over the years, there have always been men in the village who want to be close to her, but she can't forget the man before her, his name is Li Jing. He strayed into the village with her. At that time, according to the ancestral precepts handed down, the people in the village wanted to leave Li Jing and her behind. But the village has not had outsiders come in for a long time, and the villagers have disagreed about the specific operation method. Li Jing described how wonderful it was outside and how many treasures there were at that time, which aroused the curiosity of the villagers. In the end, the village chief asked Li Jing to return and get the treasure in exchange for Yinfeng's freedom. As a result, Li Jing left the village according to the explanation of the villagers. However, a few days passed, and Li Jing did not return. In order to fulfill their promise, the people in the village asked Yinfeng not to eat, and after eating, he could no longer go out. As a result, on the seventh day, Li Jing still did not return. Yinfeng was almost starving to death. The villagers simply fed her porridge and told her to try to get out again, but she really couldn't get out.
It didn't take long for the village to find out that Xiao He could come and go freely, and the whole village was happy for him. Xiao He saw that Yinfeng had been unhappy, so he promised her to go out to find Li Jing.
