Chapter Ninety-Four: Under the Shackles

"'That kind of thing'? What is it? Zhuang Youjie asked confusedly.

"Stay for you!" Liang Yuanque flicked lightly on his head, "I just refer to this because I don't understand." ”

"That's still for nothing," Zhuang Youjie sighed in frustration, "Since you didn't understand, then we still don't know what Wang Ming experienced in the water village." ”

Liang Yuanque pointed out to him, "I can't say what I went through, according to what Uncle Mu Su said, it should be what he did in the water village." ”

"Although we don't know what he did, we can make a bold judgment from this, and his death is most likely related to his actions in the water village."

Zhuang Youjie listened, still stunned, "Then what did he do that people and gods were angry about, causing the people of Shuizhai to kill people?" ”

"It's hard to say," Liang Yuanque said, shaking his head, "After all, our beliefs are different from those of the Shuizhai people, and the taboos are naturally different. ”

"Wang Ming may have simply offended their faith by inadvertently, or it may be that some actions that seem insignificant to us are extremely evil in their eyes."

"Maybe it's stepping on the grass on the side of the road, or breaking a branch in your hand, but I heard from the uncle that the people of Shuizhai care about water, so it's also possible that he did something to waste water."

Zhuang Youjie's heart trembled when he heard this, these indifferent actions in their eyes were actually disrespectful in the eyes of other peoples?

It seems that when you go out in the future, you should inquire more about local customs and learn to respect the habits of others.

"Will it be like this," Zhuang Youjie also thought about it and said,

"For example, stealing something, molesting a girl, or swearing without a mouth, these behaviors that will be beaten up in our cognition will cause death in Shuizhai."

He always felt that the kind of behavior like Liang Yuanque's example was too much, could the people in the water village ensure that when they walked on the side of the road, they could not step on the tiny grass seedlings under their feet?

Liang Yuanque listened and nodded, "All this is possible, at the moment these are just our random guesses, and we have too few clues in our hands now." ”

As he was talking, Asya, who was queuing up on the side, seemed to have finally arrived, and ran over while greeting them.

Liang Yuanque and the others immediately shut up and changed to a smile, as if they hadn't said anything just now.

Asya stuffed the pastry wrapped in oiled paper to them, and a seductive aroma immediately hit their faces.

From the smell, Liang Yuanque roughly estimated that in addition to crushed sesame seeds and peanuts, there should be some kind of herb with a unique aroma in the filling.

Asya felt that they had been outside long enough, and led them back.

Along the way, Liang Yuanque chatted with Asya as if he was casually eating.

"Asya, have outsiders come to your village before? Usually only people from Luo Chuan Water Town will come? ”

Ashya was still innocent and suspicious, so she naturally chatted with him, "Basically, it's the people in the town opposite, after all, few other outsiders know about our village." ”

Asya thought for a moment as she spoke, "Well, last year, hey, no, it was a few outsiders who came the year before last, and they called it traveling. ”

"Does travel mean to go to many, many places to have fun?" Asya looked at Liang Yuanque.

"Uh," Liang Yuanque didn't know how to answer for a while, in order to maintain his "long-abiding" character, he could only put on a very yearning expression and said, "It should be." ”

Asya looked at his expression and reacted, "Yes, you are not in good health, and you shouldn't have been out before." ”

In order to cheer her up, Liang Yuanque smiled at her, "Why don't you wait for me to get better and take you on a trip?" ”

Asya was very surprised, and her eyes that lit up suddenly revealed the excitement in her heart, "Really, really? ”

But soon the light in her eyes dimmed, "No way, I won't get out of the village." ”

It can be seen from the fact that the "buyers" who walked out of the water village can only be young men, and even though the water village gradually opened up under the leadership of the reformists, there are still many shackles on the daughter's family.

In order to get more information, Liang Yuanque knowingly asked Asya, "Why?" ”

Ashiya's expression became very low, and her eyes lowered, "My daughter's family can't go out, just like Sister Fusha, she will be unlucky." ”

Liang Yuanque immediately caught a person's name from her words, could it be that the girl was the one who had walked out of the water village, and what aspect did she mean when she was unlucky?

An ambiguous story came to his mind.

Could it be that Wang Ming fell in love with a girl who longed for freedom in the village, and the two made an appointment to leave, but were discovered by others.

In the end, they killed Wang Ming, and the girl named Fusha was also punished by the clansmen.

Well, it's really poignant and tactful, and Miss Lingling, who sent it to Inspector Fu's family, estimates that there will be new inspiration.

So Liang Yuanque pretended to be very curious and asked, "You mean, a girl was unlucky after leaving the village before?" What happened? ”

Asya also opened the conversation anyway, and she was completely defenseless against Liang Yuanque, so she said,

"I can't say that, Sister Fushah has never walked out of the village, but she has always wanted to go out, and we daughters are the ones who are most eager for the outside world."

"Later, she married a buyer in our village, and both of them longed for the outside and were very enthusiastic about the people who came from outside."

"Oh yes," Asya suddenly thought, "most of the people from the town across from the other side and the strangers who came to travel were invited to live in their wooden buildings. ”

"A year ago, Sister Fusha's husband fell ill and died, and the elders of their family said that it was because Sister A's heart was too wild, and she angered the gods and suffered retribution, saying that she shouldn't keep thinking about going out."

"Since then, even if our daughters have some thoughts in their hearts, they won't think about going out, after all, they still feel that their families are more important than going out to see."

Although Asya said this, her tone was already trembling slightly.

It is impossible for a person to be without thoughts, and it feels particularly uncomfortable to have their minds bound.

The daughters of Shuizhai will choose to bow their heads, but they have not consumed their thoughts because of this, and being brought to life in shackles will be more painful than ignorance.

Liang Yuanque's eyes when he looked at Asya revealed a trace of distress, he rarely showed such a look in front of others.

He looked at Asya, and thought uncontrollably of his sister, the girl who had been splendid, had flourished, and finally withered in the shackles of a rotten marriage.

Liang Yuanque restrained his emotions, now is not the time to think about the sadness of the past, he wants to continue to test whether Wang Ming also lived in the house of the woman mentioned by Ashya before.

But before he could speak, he heard a loud shout from front of him,

"Why haven't you left yet?"
