"It is better to lay down your life than to be unclean" is the creed of the women of Ganquan Village, and those who violate their virginity will be punished accordingly.

Shen Ling was frightened for a while, his face turned pale, and he straightened up and asked, "There won't be a death."

Li Xiulan shook her head and said: "Normally, no, but in the past few decades, there has been a bride who was afraid of the high cliff, and when she crossed the single-plank bridge, she failed to stabilize the sesame oil sprinkled on the bridge, and her feet slipped and fell into the abyss."

Shen Ling comforted himself: "However, it seems that I don't need it, if I don't have a wedding, I won't be considered a --- marriage."

Li Xiulan shook her head and smiled, and said: "According to the rules of the ancestors, only when marrying a wife is to welcome the door in a sedan chair and hold a banquet, but concubines are dispensable, as long as they live in their husband's house, they will be regarded as concubines, and the seal of the female seal at the mouth of the cliff in the sky must be implemented."

"Fifth brother, I'm ---I'm afraid of ---" Shen Ling was shocked, uneasy, dragging Huo Dao's arm, and squeamish.

But this is not what Huo Dao can say, this is the rule of the ancestors, and it is the creed of Ganquan Village, a wry smile, can only comfort: "It's okay, what about me?"

"Guapi, you are a" Huo Nanzhi said, but pointed to Liang Fengjiao, who was still commanding and busy on the field, and whispered: "Request, I can only ask her ---."

"Don't, it's in vain---" Li Xiulan glanced at her indignantly and sighed. Thinking about the situation when he married Huo two years ago and went to the cliff mouth for the first time to sacrifice, there were still some fears. Kneeling for a long time is already weak, hands full of blisters, but still have to twist a pot of sesame oil with a large opening on the roof, the oil can not be spilled, the feet should be more stable, the cold wind cracks, that is the heart is frightened.

After explaining, he didn't want a trace of coldness on his face, touched the ice flowers on his face, looked up, and clearly saw the patches of snow falling by the light of the fire---

"It's snowing--- it's snowing, it's snowing," I can't help but cheer, for the crops who watch the sky and eat, the heavy snow is falling, which indicates that there will be a good harvest in the coming year, how can we not be excited.

There was a shout, scrambling to walk to the big field outside the Zhongyi Hall, with his hands open, looking up to the sky and snowy sky, shouting, flying excitedly, it is estimated that this is another unpeaceful and excited night.

Huo Dao suddenly remembered the Guanshan Horse Farm, which is the place where Shaanxi and Gansu provinces meet, and it is also the last grassland in the northwest before entering the barren loess sand plain, which is the most proud industry of Ganquan Village, and the horses raised are all high-quality military horses, in addition to being used by the villagers in the village, most of them are also used for trading, earning a considerable amount of silver taels.

In the past, Huo Nian was in charge of leading people, but after Huo Dao took over, he handed it over to Tang Qiang and Niu Erdan. In the past few days, there have been disputes in the village, and there is no time to pay attention. But the snow is about to close the mountain, and the protection of the horse farm is the top priority.

Asked: "Gangzi, who is in the horse farm now".

Huo Gang replied without thinking: "Tang Ma idiot, his family has lived in the --- of the racecourse for three generations."

Tang Qiang was still very relieved to manage the racecourse, but he still asked: "Where have you been running in the past few days, since I saw it the day I came back, there was no trace."

Huo Gang shook his head again and again, and said: "That kid, he chattered all day long, and they drank together that day, and the next day he was seriously ill and went back to Niu Dung Mountain to have a look."

Cow dung mountain is more than ten miles away from this Ganquan village, there is a mountain pass in the port of the peach blossom forest, then enter the sheep intestine ditch, a few miles of sheep intestine trail between the mountains is a valley hinterland in the Guanshan Mountain, the gentle valley is in the middle is a small mountain bag, it looks like cow dung, it is called cow dung mountain, there are dozens of farmers living in the mountain, but they are all tenants and workers of Ganquan Village, guarding and cultivating these thousands of acres of land for Ganquan Village. There is a mountain beam in the north of the valley, which is Niubei Mountain, which is a quick way to enter the grassland of Guanshan for hundreds of miles. The grassland is scattered with clumps of wood, which is spectacular.

"Oh---" Huo Dao snorted lightly, but he was still worried about the racecourse, and said, "Let's go to the racecourse tomorrow to see ---."

"It's really ---" Huo Gangtu smiled, showing that excited expression, and said involuntarily: "Great, what a good snow, it should be a heavy snow covering the mountain, and the blind bear, the charming fox, the argali, and the badger are scurrying --- the snow."

"Melon coward, what do you want? still charming fox, you want to find death," Huo Nanzhi interjected urgently.

Huo Gang shrunk for a moment, and realized that he had leaked his mouth, in the territory of Longchuan, especially the Eight Aqueducts, the Mei Fox is a fox fairy, no matter what the history is, but the Mei Fox has an inextricable complex for the people of the Eight Aqueducts, and they are all respectful and far away, of course, there are also those who are not afraid of death, but the result is the same, bizarre and dead, not a good death, and even a death is unbearable, dare not think about it. But he also pouted in a low voice: "But the fox is worth the old money, and each skin is worth thirty yuan."

No, Huo Nanzhi kicked in and warned: "Is your life worth thirty?"

Huo Gang smiled and shook his head: "Just kidding--- we're going to the racecourse ---."

Huo Nanzhi looked at Huo Dao in a daze and said: "Xiao Wu, go to the horse farm to deal with it, and come back, don't think about going, hunting that charming fox, let alone going to that fox ditch."

Huo Dao may not really have that kind of thought, Didi smiled: "Sister, don't worry about that heart, I'm not interested in Meihuzi, Meihugou is a mass graveyard, I'm full and go there."

Huo Dao is right, the north of the fox ditch is the Guanshan mountain range, and then outside is the roof of China, the loess plateau, surrounded by the Huanghe River and the Guan River, and the south looks at Wu Mountain, it is a rare feng shui treasure land, it is rumored that the cemetery of the Shang Dynasty Jizhou Hou Su Hu is hidden in this mountain, and many generals and ministers of the Qin State chose this place. It's just that after several generations, this has become the territory of Meihuzi, and it has the name Meihugou.

This is not only the ravines criss-crossed, the terrain is steep, the forest is dense and the trees are dense and no one has ever set foot in the dangerous place, but also because the people of Longchuan are extremely awe-inspiring in their hearts The charming fox enters and exits here, and does not dare to set foot easily.

"Don't forget, Meihugou is the forbidden place of the Eight Aqueducts, you can't mess around," Huo Nanzhi didn't forget to advise.

It snowed heavily overnight, and everyone evacuated tightly to enjoy the time of the wife and children in the hot pit.

In the early morning, the sky is extraordinarily powerful, the cloudless sky instantly gives a smile look, a round of red sun hangs high in the sky, shining on the white earth buried by the heavy snow overnight, like a white quilt, flashing colorful light, ambiguous. The sky is blue, the ground is white, and in the ten miles and eight villages, there is smoke floating everywhere.

This kind of scenery has not been seen for many years, and everyone has already gotten up and stepped on the snow, full of smiles of hope. Huo Gang was even more like this, and he came early in the morning and knocked on the door of Huo Dao's East Courtyard.

When he went out, he saw that Huo Gang's horse was tied to a bunch of hunting tools, Huo Dao didn't know the little Jiujiu in Huo Gang's heart, he smiled and said no more, flew on his body, and Huo Gang drove out of the village towards the cow dung mountain one after another.

It snowed heavily overnight, the ground was white, the house was white, the trees were full of snowflakes and ice crystals, the light flashed in the sun, it was incomparably brilliant, and it was gratifying, especially the boundless peach blossom forest on both sides of the road, which was re-wrapped by the heavy snow, and the snowflakes were flying on the branches of the trees. Moistened by heavy snow, it must be extra red before spring comes.

But there was a deep chariot on the white road, and someone drove past here before them. Even after entering the mountain pass and entering the Yangguxia Road, the cart was still there, as if the purpose of their journey was the same.

Whip the chase, until the mouth of the valley, only to see a carriage, although it was a carriage, but it was dilapidated, not very fast, there were two people sitting at the front of the carriage, and there were several people outside the carriage with axes and ropes, following closely.

Approaching, Huo Dao knew at a glance who it was, the supporter of the Tao family's winery. In front of the car sat their brewing master Luo Kaishan, beside him was Kangping, and the gold ingots outside the car led a group of people to support the workers, laughing and laughing.

Huo Dao caught up and asked, "Master Luo--- where are you going?"

Luo Kaishan didn't speak, the curtain of the carriage door was lifted and a crisp voice came and said, "Fifth brother, why are you ---."

"Hongyu ---" Huo Dao was surprised, where was she going? It was not like visiting relatives, but it was like going into the mountains to work, but the heavy snow was too desperate to close the mountains, and asked: "Which one do you go into the mountains?"

"Hey--- the winery collapsed by heavy snow last night, and I need to cut down some wood and reinforce it," Tao Hong sighed.

However, before her words landed, the upright gold ingots rebuked angrily: "What--- I don't know where a group of thieves came from last night, and they smashed it when they entered the hospital, so that a large area of the wine shop collapsed, and it almost didn't crush people."

Huo Dao was stunned for a moment and asked, "Where did this thing that doesn't have long eyes come from---

Tao Hong forced a smile, waved his hand and said: "Forget it, it's just a few little thieves, it's okay if it collapses, you won't have trouble in the future."

"Forget it--- people are good at being bullied, horses are good at being ridden, my women dare to be bullied, and they eat the bear's heart and leopard's gall," Huo Dao blurted out.

Tao Hong smiled with relief, but scolded shyly: "Who is your woman, don't talk nonsense---."

Huo Dao looked directly at Luo Kaishan, he must be the one who knew the inside story, and asked: "Who do you say--- is so short-sighted."

Luo Kaishan was concerned and worried for a moment, but when he thought of who was in front of him, it was the fifth master of Ganquan Village, a character who could walk sideways in these eight aqueducts, and said: "Fifth master, in the eight aqueducts, there are only three famous wine workshops in the larger ones, one is the drunken spring breeze of your Ganquan Village, which was not exported for some reason a few years ago; You know, that is the Zhu family's Jiugou Daqu, which has been leading the wine market for the past few years---."

Huo Dao nodded, already knowing it in his heart, but still said: "You mean Zhu Dake ---."

Luo Kaishan said in fear: "Fifth master, I didn't say anything---."

Huo Dao thought for a while and said: "I will arrange this matter, and the drunken spring breeze should also be re-listed--- March 3rd Sacrifice Festival will let everyone relive its wine fragrance."

"Hehe--- do you have the final say?" Tao Hong couldn't help laughing, the drunken spring breeze shook the wine market, Huo Dao may not be able to do the master, as for why the export ban is banned, he still doesn't understand. But times change, and everything has to change with the situation.

Huo Dao threw the horse rope to Huo Gang but directly penetrated into the carriage, squeezed into the narrow carriage box with Tao Hong, giggled and laughed, and insisted on squeezing and hugging him, before asking: "Can the freshly cut wood build a house?"
