188. The bully four village masters
Du did not forget to hold back his resentment and move forward with Duan Xian'er all the way.
A day later, the two had already arrived in Guangxi.
And because the two of them had never been to Guangxi, they were not familiar with the road, so they lost their way while walking and came to a strangely dressed village.
After inquiry, I found out that this is a gathering place for the Yao people, and I saw that young women here are wearing colorful flower clothes and short skirts, and they are gathering together to dance very beautifully, occasionally mixed with some young men.
Duan Xian'er curiously pulled Du Bu Bu to take a closer look, only to see that there was an altar in the middle of these dancing young men and women of the Yao tribe, and several older people were holding a few pillars of incense to worship on the altar.
Du Buyi curiously pointed to the elder on the altar and asked a young man dancing on the side:
"Little brother, what are the uncles worshipping over there?"
The young man said:
"Today is Panwang Day, of course we have to commemorate our ancestor Pangu!"
Then he asked Du Bu and Duan Xian'er:
"You two are from out of town, aren't you?"
The two of them nodded together.
Then Du did not forget to introduce each other to the man, only to know that the young man's name was Pandu.
Du did not forget and asked again:
"Brother Pan, are you Yao people all descendants of Pangu?"
The disc is back:
"I don't know about this, but the legend of our clan is the descendant of Pangu!"
Du did not forget and replied:
"That's it!"
Then Xian'er thought it was interesting for these people to dance, so she pulled Du Yixin to dance with the group.
After dancing for a while, a group of women playing long drums came to replace the young men and women, and the whole room began to beat drums.
Du Buyi and Xian'er sat next to the group of young men and women and admired it.
At this moment, a large group of people suddenly rushed over on horseback and surrounded all these Yao people in the middle.
I only heard a big man with a long beard on his face say to several old men who were sacrificing in the field:
"When will you pay back the three hundred pigs and a hundred cows that you owe us?"
This was the oldest of the old men, and he walked over to the long-bearded man and said:
"Our Pan's family really doesn't have pigs and cattle now, I beg you the master of the four villages, can you delay it for half a year?"
I only listened to the four village masters replying:
"Your Pan clan has been in arrears to us for half a year, and the promised strong man has not been fulfilled, how can you forgive your brothers in the village like this!"
Then he said to his subordinates behind him:
"Everybody go in and grab all the food!"
After saying that, these people first took away the things in the altar first, and then began to search around the room, Du Yi did not forget to ask Yaomin on the side with some anger at this time:
"Who are these people, and why are they so rampant?"
Yaomin replied:
"They are the rulers of our Qingyuan Mansion, and the four of the eight villages will not return!"
Du did not forget to ask again:
"How can you owe them cattle and sheep here?"
Yao Min then said:
"This Qi Bugui has ruled us here for nearly three years, and every year we have to pay him a hundred pigs, thirty cattle, and a hundred strong men in our township!"
Then he slowed down, and continued:
"We raised the cattle well in the first year, and naturally they were able to hand over the numbers, and the strong men also came out, but most of the cattle began to die of illness in the second year, only out of the strong men, and now the pigs and cattle have just been raised, and the family is about to start lacking men, how can there be anything to hand over to them!"
Du Cheng said:
"How can there be such a bully!"
I wanted to rush over to find Na Qi Bugui to settle the account, but I was stopped by Xian'er and Yaomin on the side.
I just heard Xian'er say:
"Don't make trouble, this is someone else's territory!"
Yaomin next to him also said:
"Childe, you don't have to be angry for us, otherwise if they encounter resistance, I don't know what will happen to us next time?"
It wasn't until those people snatched a lot of things and left that Xian'er and Yaomin didn't let go of Du Yifu.
Du did not forget to ask angrily:
"What if you resist them?"
At this time, the old man who had been sacrificing before came over and said:
"If we resist, they will kill, and if one resists, we will kill three... Ten must kill thirty people......"
Du did not forget to ask again:
"Are you Yao people afraid of them?"
The elder replied:
"I'm Yao Lao here, we resisted before, and as a result, they killed nearly three adults in the township!"
Then he said:
"Although there are only more than 1,000 people under the four village masters, these people are all amazingly powerful, and they can defeat ten people with one enemy!"
Du did not forget to ask again:
"What are they doing to catch strong men?"
Yao Lao replied:
"It seems that the capture is to go to a far away place to fight, and the people who were captured have not come back anyway!"
At this time, Xian'er asked again:
"Is that all around you?"
Yao Lao replied:
"I only know that several Yaomin townships near us collect pigs and strong men in this way, and I don't know anything else!"
Du did not forget to ask again:
"Can other Yaomin townships pay it?"
Yao Lao replied:
"It's all about the same as us!"
Du Yi did not forget to pull Xian'er and said:
"Let's go!"
Then he said goodbye to the Yao people, and went to the county seat of Zhiyishan County, Qingyuan Mansion.
On the way, Xian'er asked:
"Brother Du, where do you want to go?"
Du did not forget to reply:
"Qi doesn't return to Yishan County!"
Xian'er said:
"Well, whatever you want!"
Du did not forget to ask:
"Did you bring any poison this time?"
Xian'er replied:
"I haven't used poison for years, I only brought a little poison powder!"
Du did not forget to ask again:
"Can you poison people?"
Duan Xian'er replied:
"It seems that you can't be poisoned in an instant, but if you want to poison people, I can take you to find some poisonous herbs or catch some poisonous snakes!"
Du Cheng said:
"It's okay, the more poisonous, the better!"
Duan Xian'er replied:
"I see!"
Then the two of them walked for a while, and then they came to a dense forest, and Xian'er took Du Buyi and began to look for poison.
The two of them searched for a long time and didn't see anything highly poisonous, but there were a lot of herbs, and Du Cheng was a little anxious, so he asked Xian'er:
"There are life-saving herbs everywhere, why don't you see poisons?"
Xian'er replied:
"Brother Du, don't be anxious, there are life-saving herbs, and you will definitely be able to find highly poisonous things!"
At this time, Du did not pay attention to it, hit a tree, and kicked it twice angrily, only to find that the bark had white juice flowing out, and he was a little curious, so he wanted to touch the juice, but he didn't expect to be seen by Xian'er, and immediately came over excitedly to stop Du Forget.
Du Yi asked curiously:
"What the hell is this white liquid, you are so nervous that I am afraid that I will touch it, is it highly poisonous?"
Xian'er pointed to the white liquid and said:
"Don't you know that this kind of thing is called seeing blood and sealing the throat?"
Du was shocked for a moment and said:
"Seeing the blood sealing the throat, it turned out to be the white liquid in this tree, but fortunately you reminded me!"
Then he also said excitedly:
"That's it, let's get some more!"
Duan Xian'er took out a bottle from her arms, poured out some of the things inside, and then began to pick up the blood and seal her throat, and after a while, she took most of the bottle.
Then he asked Du Bu not to forget:
"Brother Du, do you want to use this to poison Qi Bugui?"
Du did not forget to reply:
"Yes?"
Duan Xian'er asked again:
"Have you figured out how to poison it?"
Du did not forget to think about it and said:
"Let's go to Yishan County first!"
Xian'er replied:
"Good!"
Then the two of them found the horses, and when it was dark, they finally arrived in Yishan County.
Although Yishan County is located in a remote place in the southwest, because it is the place where Qingyuan Mansion and the Lord of Sizhai do not return, the city is lively and extraordinary, and there is no trace of war at all.
As soon as they entered the room, the two of them put their luggage away, and went out to find food by the way to inquire about the location where Qi Bugui lived.
After finding a restaurant, the two of them ordered some wine and food and ate them.
At this time, there were three government catchers coming next to him, and they came up and asked for a few big fat chickens, a few roast geese and a few pots of wine.
Du did not forget and said to Duan Xian'er:
"Look, the head catcher in the southwest is really rich, and he actually eats such good things!"
Duan Xian'er smiled and said:
"Don't underestimate the head catcher, people have a lot of oil and water!"
Du Buzhi also smiled and said:
"Then I'll just come here to be a head catcher!"
Xian'er whispered back:
"You can save it, eat more, I'm waiting for you to compensate me at night, we haven't been together for several days!"
Du did not forget, so he smiled evilly and said:
"It seems that Xian'er, you can't bear to be lonely, huh?"
Xian'er replied:
"Xian'er, I'm just this kind of character, if you don't accompany me, I'll find someone else!"
Du did not forget to be a little angry and said:
"I'll ignore you if you're looking for someone else!"
Xian'er replied:
"Ignore it!"
Then he deliberately kicked Du under the table with his foot.
At this time, he heard that someone was talking again at the head-catching table, so Du Buyi whispered to Xian'er:
"Let's stop arguing, let's listen to what they say, after all, they must be here to catch the head for Qi Bugui!"
Xian'er naturally stopped.
I only heard the leader of the catcher quickly say to the others:
"We have to find a few good-looking women for the master of Qizhai this time, it's really difficult!"
At this time, the other older catcher sighed and replied:
"I've been doing head hunting for so long, and it's the first time I've been ordered to arrest a woman, so where can I put my old face!"
Another catcher on the side smiled and said:
"That's not simple, let's go to Yihong Courtyard at night and call a few to the master of Qizhai!"
The one at the head hurriedly replied:
"This can't be done, if the owner of Qi Zhai knows, our little life will be lost!"
Then he said:
"The lord of Qi Zhai is not thin on us, since ruling the entire Qingyuan Mansion, those of us who take refuge in him are big fish and meat almost every day, when did you neglect us, now let's find a few women to play, even if we are hard-headed, we have to find the best!"
At this time, the two replied together:
"Yes, the Lord of Qi Zhai is really good to us, much stronger than the previous prefect. ”
The head catcher at the head took a sip of wine, laughed and said to the two:
"Don't mention the prefect of the door, he is now licking the Qi Zhai Lord like a dog all day long, but unfortunately the Qi Zhai Lord is too lazy to take care of him!"
Then the old man said:
"Yes, I saw that Xu Zhifu came yesterday and wanted to invite the owner of the village to drink, but the owner of the village ignored him!"
The other head catcher also smiled and said:
"Yes, every time we invite the owner of Qi Zhai to drink, the master of Qi Zhai has never refused!"
At this time, the head catcher also laughed and said:
"This is all because we know the hero with our eyes and take refuge in the Qi Zhai Lord early!"
At this time, the other head catcher continued:
"It seems that I think the prefect should come and stammer, we are!"
Then the elder catcher said:
"Xiao Mu, you're right, why didn't we think of going to the prefect of the door to ask for a woman!"
The head catcher then got up and laughed, and said:
"Then let's hurry up and find the prefect of Xu, and then come to eat after the woman is finished!"
Then he said to Xiao Er:
"Help the uncles put these away, we'll come to eat later!"
And then left.
Du Buyi looked at Xian'er, and then the two of them got up and settled the bill, and quietly followed.
