This mountain village is called Taohualuo, more than a dozen families, more than 50 people, living here for generations, and living on weekdays is mainly agriculture and animal husbandry.

The mountain village has always been peaceful, the villagers are harmonious, and the families live and work in peace and contentment. Because of its remote location, girls from other places rarely marry in this village, and although it is peaceful, it is not prosperous.

It is precisely because of the remoteness that there is less war. The only time there was a fight, twenty years ago, was when two armies met here and fought an encounter that harassed the villagers.

The whole village fled to the mountains and forests for more than a month, avoiding the war, and there was no war again.

This is a forgotten corner of the government. Only sixteen years ago, when the new state was founded, the city-state of Mount Vikchi sent officials to visit, and after registering their household registration, the officials never came again.

The official whip is beyond its reach, but it is not that no one is in charge. On weekdays, the village is under the jurisdiction of Mofengling Cottage to provide protection for the villagers.

And the village is the outpost of the Demon Peak Ridge, and if there is any movement outside the mountain, it only needs to be reported to the Demon Peak Ridge in time.

In years of disaster and famine, Mofeng Ridge will provide support to the villagers to survive the famine.

On weekdays, only sporadic merchants pass by, and the villagers can exchange them for tools and salt and other daily necessities, and Mofengling will also send people to trade. Over the years, the cycle has been repeated, and it has been unusually peaceful.

Because the mountain road is difficult to travel, large caravans cannot pass.

It takes three or four days to go east from the mountain village to the coastal city-state of Allah, and there are still fishing villages on the way.

It takes seven to ten days to go west from the mountain village to the mountain town of Vikchi, and there is no village in the middle, and even if you ride a horse, you have to walk for three or four days.

It is not easy to travel, and it is difficult to go out of the mountain alone.

Two months ago, there were more and more pedestrians, and at most, hundreds of people passed a day. It's just that in the last twenty days, there have been fewer pedestrians passing by, and only one or two people are there.

Pedestrians rushed from east to west, heading to the mountain town of Vikchi. The refugees came from the city-state of Allah's Primory. This is the Great Exodus! At least tens of thousands.

Pedestrians do two things, one is to stay, and the other is to find food.

Because of the habit of receiving merchants, the people in the village are hospitable, warm and sincere to visitors.

At first, when there were few people, more than a dozen families could still live there.

At first, the villagers were very novel, after all, they had never seen so many people. Later, there were more and more pedestrians, and more than a dozen thatched houses could no longer accommodate them.

In the evening, in front of the house and behind the house, under the trees in the corner of the mountain, all the hungry people sleeping in the open.

This is not prosperity, which has already put a burden on the small mountain villages.

The villagers' wintering stocks have long been exhausted, and pedestrians travel westward, with no grain to sell, let alone food to send.

Even the chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep raised in captivity at home are all killed and eaten, and there is no living animal left.

Without food, the villagers are not worried, the Mofengling cottage will help the villagers to survive.

The villagers were worried about the plague, and a large number of people moved to the mountain villages.

Frequent personal contact, someone has been infected, but they don't know how to get infected. After the pedestrians have passed, they have become ill one after another, and several people have died, both old and young, strong and weak.

What's even more terrifying is that even if there are no more pedestrians passing by, there are still people who die of illness.

As a result, now every family is closed and does not interact with each other, and the whole mountain village is nowhere to be seen, and it is deadly silent.

Every three or five days, the Mofengling Cottage will send people to deliver food.

There are healers on the Demon Peak Ridge, but their medical skills are limited and they can't cure the plague.

mentioned that the Demon Peak Ridge Alayan Sect was deeply interested, so he mentioned to the gray-clothed old man the second village master demon spirit Qingfeng and the third village master demon spirit Yanyue.

When the gray-clothed old man saw that Alayanzong could say the names of the second and third masters, he smiled and said:

"It seems that the little brother still knows about the Demon Peak Ridge. I and this village have an indissoluble relationship with Mofeng Ridge, and in terms of seniority, the two village owners still have to shout grandpa to me. ”

At the request of Alayanzong, the old man in gray told the historical origin of the Mofengling cottage.

Mofengling Cottage was originally just a small village, and the villagers in the village were of the same origin as the Taohualuo villagers, but because they were later relocated, they rebuilt a village in the mountains.

For thousands of years, it was a paradise, almost unknown to outsiders, and undisturbed by the world.

More than 20 years ago, when the whole continent was in turmoil, many strangers fled to the mountains for refuge, and gradually gathered in the Mofengling cottage.

There are thousands of acres of plains on the mountains, where people settle down, cultivate and work, and are self-sufficient, but there is nothing to do.

Later, as the number of people grew and the village grew larger, the land became even more scarce. The villagers began to fight for land, and gradually divided into two factions, one group mainly composed of local mountain people, and the other group mainly composed of strangers.

Armed fights became commonplace, and people were injured from time to time, disrupting the peaceful life of the cottage and causing the order of the mountain village to be in a state of chaos for a time.

Eighteen years ago, due to the extremely tragic war between the princes at that time, an army was almost completely wiped out, the commander was killed by unknown robbery, and many generals were almost all killed.

There was only one partial general left, leading the remnants of less than 100 people to flee here.

The small village of Peach Blossom Fall could not accommodate them, and the old man in gray was the village chief of Peach Blossom Fall at that time.

This partial general pleaded bitterly with the old man in gray, and in order to save his life, all the soldiers were willing to lay down their arms and return to the farmland. I don't want to participate in the troubled times anymore, the Lord is dead, and I have no intention of fighting again.

The old man in gray burst into tears when he saw the general, and his heart was sincere, and he was willing to condescend to intercede for the survival of the hundred soldiers, and he was moved.

He proposed that he could go to Mofeng Ridge to rest, only saying that the villagers there were not harmonious and not very peaceful.

The general said that it would be okay and that he could go and govern the village.

The old man in gray felt that if the Mofengling cottage could be peaceful and the villagers could live and work in peace and contentment, this would be a great achievement, and it could be regarded as benefiting the people. This is a good thing for Mofeng Ridge.

He led the generals and the soldiers to the Demon Peak Ridge.

Seeing that there was an army stationed in the cottage, the villagers did not dare to make a mistake. Under the governance and maintenance of this partial general, the villagers no longer dare to fight, and whenever there is a conflict, they will find a partial general to come to negotiate and mediate.

This partial general is fair, impartial, and has clear reasoning, which is deeply expected.

When it was learned that the partial general wanted to stay in the mountain village for a long time with 100 soldiers, the villagers of the whole village unanimously agreed, and publicly recommended that the partial general would be the village head.

This general has a high prestige, and the villagers respond to him. Gradually, he put the village in good order, the roads were not left behind, the houses were not closed at night, the villagers were self-denying, and there was no more fighting.

Some of the soldiers he brought with him had already settled down, and those who were unwilling to start a family formed a guard to protect the cottage.

He made a villagers' convention, which was very fair, and the villagers respected each other.

Because of the large population, it is impossible for all people to engage in agriculture, so the people are diverted, and the cultivation of fruit trees and handicraft processing are raised, and the cottages are almost self-sufficient.

Later, the guards were reorganized and trained according to the standards of the army.

Those veterans taught swords, guns, and sticks to grapple and fight, and promoted those young people who had practiced martial arts well and won the expectations of the people to become leaders.

The current owners of the second village and the third village were once the descendants of the peach blossoms, and the old man in gray was called grandpa in terms of generation.

It is precisely because of this origin that Mofengling has been volunteering to protect the safety of Taohualuo villagers for more than ten years.

The location of Mofeng Ridge is dangerous and closed, and the government is unknown, and it is not under the jurisdiction of any city-state.
