012, The Story of Chicken and Egg (I)

In fact, for Ruoshan, today is also an opportunity to discover that the tiger baby has already entered the initial realm, otherwise the child would not have recognized the monkey. But Wakayama missed it, and he didn't realize it, because the person pointed it out. Ruoshan and the people of the clan took it for granted that the tiger baby and Pan Gu were the most familiar with and understood the meaning of Pan Gu, so they helped Pan Gu to speak.

The monkey who did the bad thing was caught, but Gu Xin hadn't left yet, and he said to Ruoshan again: "Come today, there is another request." We want to exchange three muntjac for a live rooster, and I already said last night that the muntjac was brought today, and I hope you will agree. ”

Three muntjac for one rooster, if only meat is counted, the people of Lu Village can make a lot of money. But of course, Gu Xin had another purpose, the reason why he gathered the strength of the Jingzhuang clan and Dafei to build a bridge over the cliff was not only to come over in person to apologize, but also to be able to bring the living creature back safely.

The source of the matter has to be traced back to what Huwa and Pan Gu did more than a year ago. The chicken that crossed the cliff somehow ran to the vicinity of Huahai Village and was found by the people of Huahai Village. Huahai Village and Lu Village have intermarriages, and they usually have the most dealings, and they have long heard that the people of Lu Village raise chickens and lay eggs, and they are very envious.

The hen was raised as a baby in Huahai Village, and the chicken coop was more comfortable than the ordinary clansman's house. It lays eggs almost every two days, and has been for more than a year. However, although the hen lays eggs, it can not hatch chicks, and the people of Huahai Village have also inquired about it for more than a year, and they know that they need to have roosters to breed.

If they get a live rooster and bring it back for breeding, they can hatch chicks, and then there will be more chickens in Huahai Village, so they don't have to use swan eggs and Lu Village for eggs in the future. Swans lay eggs seasonally and are not picked for most of the year, but chicken and eggs are often available.

Gu Xin thought it was very beautiful, and Ruoshan replied with a smile: "I also said last night, don't ask me about this matter first, but ask another person." ”

Gu Xin was puzzled: "I don't understand what the mountain master means, who do you ask if you don't ask, is it Granny Shui?" Ruoshan has been the patriarch of Lu Village for many years, and Ruoshui is almost as mysterious as him. Even Gu Xin, the patriarch of Huahai Village, would call them Mountain Lord and Water Mother-in-law.

Granny Shui shook her head, stretched out her hand and pointed at the tiger baby and said, "It's not about me, you should ask this child, as long as he agrees, there will be no problem." ”

Gu Xin was stunned, he didn't expect that Shan Ye and Granny Shui would make such a decision and let him ask a child who looked like he was only five or six years old. Are the people of Nanlu Village still very dissatisfied with Huahai Village because of the monkey's behavior, so they rejected him in such a way? When the monkey shouted to deceive people yesterday, the first person he heard was the tiger baby, and today it is also the tiger baby who is identified in public today.

Gu Xin thought of another possibility, Shan Ye and Granny Shui were unwilling to let Huahai Village breed chickens, so that they could always keep such a good thing as eggs for themselves. But he brought his clansmen to apologize sincerely, and the mountain master and Granny Shui were not good at refusing in public, and they seemed too stingy, so they let a child speak. Children of this age often begin to have the idea of possessing things, and they will definitely not agree easily.

But seeing that none of the Lu tribe objected, and obviously acquiesced to this decision, Gu Xin had no choice but to walk over and squat down again, and said to Huwa with a pleasant face: "Good boy, let's exchange three muntjac for a rooster in your village, okay?" Seeing that Huwa didn't squeak, he added, "Do you like to eat swan eggs?" If you agree, Huahai Village will often send swan eggs to you to eat in the future. Not only swan eggs, but also swan meat!"

When he said this, Gu Xin himself felt that his face was a little hot, he was ** an ignorant child, but he hoped that the tiger baby was not sensible in his heart, and hoped that the child only saw three muntjacs much more than the meat of a rooster, but he didn't know the real plans of the people in Huahai Village.

The tiger baby turned her head with a smile and asked the dog next to her, "Pan Gu, do you like to eat swan meat?"

Pan Gu was a gluttonous dog, and when he heard this, he stuck out his tongue and nodded vigorously. The tiger baby asked Gu Xin with a childish face: "Do you want to hatch chicks in your village too?"

Gu Xin's little bit of caution was actually broken by a child, and his face couldn't help but turn red on the spot, he only nodded and replied: "Yes, we have a hen in Huahai Village but no rooster, and we also want to breed eggs and hatch chicks, would you like to help?"

It can't be said that the tiger baby is smart, but he is direct-minded, because he knows what the rooster is for. The young rooster can be killed for meat, and when it is raised, it can crow and attract birds of prey that fly by, and the most important use for the people is to breed with hens, so that the hens can lay eggs that can hatch chicks. Since he knew the Tao, he could think of it.

Everyone was waiting to hear what Tiger Doll would say, Gu Xin couldn't understand why Shan Ye and Granny Shui did this, but in the eyes of the people of Lu Village, the reason was very simple. Because the earliest nest of chickens in Lu Village was brought back from the chicken shed in the Qingshui clan's walled city, they originally belonged to the Qingshui clan.

Although the flock is a living creature, it is also a thing that produces eggs and chicken. In primitive tribes, such means of production were basically public and belonged to all the people. And the Qingshui clan people are not all extinct, at least as far as the Lu clan knows, there is still a tiger baby left. Now in their minds, Huwa is completely a member of the Lu Village, so this group of chickens is also owned by the Lu clan, but when dealing with such a problem, it is natural to ask Huwa's opinion.

In fact, even if there is no reason for this, as long as the mountain master and the water mother-in-law decide together, the Lu people will not raise doubts. I saw the tiger baby with an innocent and flawless smile and said, "Okay, wow, then give you a rooster, you can pick it yourself." ”

The people in Huahai Village were all smiling, and some were still cheering quietly. Of course, Gu Xin was overjoyed, and kept thanking Tiger Baby, Ruoshan and others, and he ordered the clansmen to carry the three muntjac they hunted over on the spot, and then wanted to pick a rooster. Ruoshan patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, you came from the other side of the mountain as a guest, and you brought so many things, let's finish eating together before leaving." Now that the tiger baby has agreed, I, the patriarch, on behalf of Lu Village, will give you another hen. ”

This is really an unexpected joy, the people of Huahai Village can bring back one male, one female and two chickens and earn a meal in vain, and this meal is extraordinarily rich. The people of Lu Village washed and skinned the wild boar and a roe deer sent by the people of Huahai Village on the spot, and cut meat and cooked them in the open space. So much meat is eaten in one meal, and other grains such as beans, arrowroot powder, elm pod powder, and acorn powder are added.

Gu Xin brought more than sixty strong men, and together with all the clansmen of Lu Village, there were more than five hundred in total, of course, enough to eat. Huahai Village is not as rich as Lu Village, and the clansmen rarely have such an opportunity to eat meat and enjoy such an abundance of delicious grains, not to mention how happy they are!

They made no secret of their gratitude and praise to Huwa, Shanye, and others, and felt that this child and this Lucun patriarch were simply the best people in the world! As for the monkey who had done something wrong and deceived the people of Lucun, of course, it was even more hateful, and they felt ashamed when they thought about it. Some people can't help but talk about it, if a good child like Huwa can grow up healthily, he should become the next patriarch of Lu Village in the future, and the people of Huahai Village will definitely respect him.

The situation in Huahai Village and Lu Village is not the same, they are not like Shan Ye, who has always been the patriarch, Gu Xin has been the patriarch for less than ten years, so everyone has different concepts, and they will think of the question of the next patriarch.

Everyone was eating and drinking happily, except for the monkey, who was tied to a large rock at a distance, smelling the smell of meat and basking in the sun, and many children had just run up to him and spit on him. The little girl, the pothos, was always quick at eating good things, and she was the first to finish her share of the food, and then she burped a few times and rubbed her stomach and walked around the clearing, and as she walked to the monkey, she looked at him with her eyes wide open.

The little girl's gaze had a sense of judgment, and the monkey did not dare to touch her sight, but lowered his head with his eyes closed, and suddenly heard the pothos ask, "Are you called a monkey?"

Li Qingshui, who was on the Shude Hill in the distance, was also watching what was happening in Lu Village, and couldn't help but smile secretly at this moment. This little girl has loved to get to the bottom of all kinds of things since she was a child, and the look and tone of her voice at this moment can't help but remind Li Qingshui of many years ago, when he was in charge of litigation and punishment in Pakistan, and he often interrogated people like this.

The monkey replied weakly: "The day before yesterday, the Gu Xin patriarch discussed with the clansmen and wanted to exchange swan eggs and wild boars for things with the people of Lu Village, and I heard it, and I really wanted to eat eggs, and I also wanted to have water cloth to make clothes. Later, I went to the sea of flowers for a stroll, and I was lucky to pick up five swan eggs, which I quietly put away and did not hand them over to the village, so I wanted to exchange them privately and never tell anyone. ”

Pothos: "It turns out that you have five swan eggs, so why don't you honestly change ten eggs to go back?"

The monkey explained, "I thought the same thing, but when I got to the edge of the cliff and found that there was fog in the mountains, and the people on the other side could not see who I was, I thought otherwise. ”

Green Pothos nodded and said, "Oh, so that's the case!" looked at her and seemed to understand, but no one knew what she really understood.

Then the monkey said, "I have told you everything, can you tell me one thing too?"

Green Pothos glared at him and said, "What do you want to know?"

Monkey: "Huahai Village wants to change a rooster to go back, in order to breed eggs and hatch chicks with hens, why do you want the mountain master and Granny Shui to let the tiger baby child decide whether to agree or not?"

When Li Qingshui, who was far away, heard this, his heart tightened secretly, hoping that Luluo would not tell the "truth", but unfortunately he couldn't stop anything.
