Chapter 17 Here is joy, not thinking

There were only two people left in the room, Fengyun and Li Xiaoyue, and the atmosphere was a little awkward.

Li Xiaoyue covered her ankles, her eyes dodged, and she stared at her fingers intently. Sensing the gaze of the wind and clouds sweeping overhead, she subconsciously pulled the sackcloth to cover her silver-like hair.

Fengyun coughed and took the initiative to ask, "How do you feel?"

A little cramped, Li Xiaoyue buried her head and said, "It's better." ”

Seeing her like this, Fengyun couldn't help but joke: "Isn't it quite fierce when you trick me on the mountain?"

Li Xiaoyue raised her head and glared at him angrily, Fengyun laughed and said, "Is this right!" After that, he got up and shook his clothes, walked out with his back hand, and said, "You can rest first! If it's too cold, just slow down for a while and then apply it." ”

"Hey, Fengyun!" Li Xiaoyue suddenly shouted, and when Fengyun looked back suspiciously, she bit her lip and said, "Thank you......"

With a wave of his hand, Fengyun opened the curtain and walked out.

The commotion caused by the wheals had subsided, and it was completely dark, and Jiang Xiang was talking to Li Yan outside.

Li Greed was still naked, and his lower body was wearing a skirt made of linen tiger skin, and a crown of horns on his head, which was full of power, and he was followed by two strong men, one tall and one short.

Seeing Fengyun coming, Li Yan stopped, looked Fengyun up and down, and smiled.

Walking in front of Li Greed, Fengyun stared at his eyes, and Zhengse said, "I owe you a life." ”

"My own brother, don't talk about this. Patting him on the shoulder, Li Greed turned back to Jiang Xiang and asked, "Grandma Wu, when will the sacrifice be held?"

Jiang Xiang smiled and said, "It's up to you. ”

Li Greed sighed slightly and said, "I understand, I will handle political affairs as soon as possible." ”

Turning his head, Li Greed said to Fengyun: "In the past few days, the leaders of the old Jiuyi tribe have been here to discuss state affairs, and they have no time to take care of you for the time being. ”

Fengyun looked behind him, and the shorter man nodded at him, counting it as a greeting, but the tall man looked at him stunned and didn't say anything.

Fengyun looked at Li Greed and asked, "Do you mean that you want me to live here with Grandma Wu first?"

Li Yan thought about it, turned back to the short man and said, "Li Wen, you take him to my house to find the pig's head to get something, Li Wu, you go back to the council hall with me." Grandma Wu, I'm going back first. ”

"Wait!" Grandma Jiang Xiang suddenly stopped Li Ran, walked over with a sacrificial staff, and she reached out to stroke the top of his head.

Li Cheng leaned down cooperatively, and let Jiang Xiang's palm stick to his forehead, Jiang Xiang's expression was complicated, and he said in a low voice: "Greedy, no matter what, you have to remember that we are from the same source, and no land between heaven and earth should be sprinkled with the blood of human brothers and sisters, and war will always bring only suffering." ”

Li Greed was obviously stunned when he heard Jiang Xiang shout Greedy, since he started to participate in hunting, Dawu had never called him Greedy Son again. However, when he heard the latter words, his face turned cold again. Lifting his forehead from Jiang Xiang's warm palm, he said in a deep voice: "From the moment Jiang Yu drove us out, he is no longer the brother of my Li people. ”

Jiang Xiang slowly lowered his hand, sighed and said: "Greedy, you are now the patriarch, and the clansmen must be the first in political and war decisions, and the old department of Jiuyi will not easily send troops to be the vanguard for you, so let's rest and recuperate first......!"

Li Greed shook his head, stood up straight, his eyes were firm, and said in a low voice: "I have made up my mind to ask for it, I don't need to say it anymore, I have my own plans." With that, he turned around and led Li Wu towards the center of the city, his steps dull.

As if a few years older in an instant, Grandma Jiang Xiang sighed softly and looked up at the dark and silent house. In order to save firewood, few families are willing to burn firewood at night, can such a tribe really withstand a big war?

Li Yan suddenly stopped, hesitated, and still turned back to Jiang Xiang and shouted, "Grandma Wu, don't worry! I won't bring my clansmen into the fire pit." ”

Grandma Jiang Xiang nodded lightly before he turned around and left.

"Grandma Wu, then I'll take Brother Liyun to pick up things first. Li Wen, who was left, said respectfully to Grandma Wu.

Jiang Xiang gently tapped his calf with the sacrificial staff, and said, "Don't scream until you return to your ancestors!" Li Wen stuck out his tongue, and walked in the other direction with his arms around the wind and clouds.

Li Wen is shorter than Li Greed, but he is also about the same height as Fengyun, so it is quite appropriate to hug him. However, Fengyun was not used to hugging and hugging, so he quietly got out of his body, provoked the conversation and asked, "Li Wen, right? Where are we going now?"

In fact, he asked knowingly, but Li Wen didn't care, and replied, "Go to the patriarch's house! ”

Fengyun looked at the messy and scattered grass huts on both sides, sighed secretly, and muttered, "Poor......"

"Hmm, what?" Li Wen didn't hear clearly, Fengyun hurriedly snorted and said, "I mean, our Chiyou City doesn't seem to be too prosperous?"

"What is prosperity?" Li Wen seemed to be very interested, Fengyun scratched his scalp and said: "It means lively and beautiful." ”

"Oh, that's it!" Li Wen muttered a few more words before looking around and saying, "I think it's very prosperous!"

Fengyun smacked his lips, I don't know what to say, modern people who are used to living in high-rise buildings naturally don't think how prosperous this small county is.

Li Wen said again: "But there are more thatched houses, and they are indeed not as beautiful as my Wencheng." ”

"Huh?" Fengyun asked suspiciously, "Do you still have a city?"

"Of course!" Li Wen said with a smile: "Since my Li clan is called the country of Jiuli, there are naturally nine cities, and my Wen City is five hundred miles to the south. ”

After a pause, Li Wen's pace slowed down a little, he looked at the grass huts around him, and said with some nostalgia: "However, the other eight cities are all separated from Chiyou City, this place is the mother city of my Li people, the city of the Great Witch, and the foundation of my Li people's country, you must not forget it in the future." ”

Fengyun didn't know what to expect, nodded and asked, "Which nine cities are the nine cities?"

Li Wen said: "In addition to Chiyou City, the rest are the eight cities of Wen, Wu, Ju, Guang, Lu, Po, Fu and Bi, which are located in the eight directions of Chiyou City, in the form of a river map, the formation is accommodating, easy to defend and difficult to attack. ”

Fengyun asked: "Why are you divided into so many cities? How good is it to live together, and how many people can develop?"

Li Wen said with a smile: "I, the Li people, are naturally willing to live together, but the old Jiuyi tribe is unwilling? Almost all of the prime-aged witch wars in the clan were taken away by the Eight Cities, and the Chiyou City was now full of the old, weak, sick and disabled who were unable to participate in the war. Logging and farming are acceptable to ordinary people, but opening mountains and building houses requires witch warfare. In the past few years, Chiyou City has been taken care of by almost the patriarch alone, and it is really hard, and there is no witch war to open the mountains and cracked stones, so naturally there is no beautiful house. ”

It turned out to be like this, Fengyun suddenly realized, and there was an indescribable feeling in his heart, no wonder he didn't find much witch war when he entered the city!

While speaking, Li Wen stopped in front of an ordinary stone house and said with a smile: "It's here." ”

Fengyun looked carefully outside the door, and he really couldn't figure out how such a person who could face the ghost lived in such a small dilapidated house.

After walking for half a day, they returned to the thatched hut area, where Li Ran's home was the only stone house in this area, but it was not prominent. There are many more spacious and beautiful stone houses in the stone house area, and the only special feature of it may be the fire lit up inside!

The light exposed through the cracks in the stone wall attracted the little children who couldn't sleep at night, giggling and playing with the stones on the ground, Fengyun leaned over to take a look, but they were confused.

They drew circles and dots on the ground, but they didn't look like blind paintings, they seemed to be inextricably linked with each other, and a pile of stones was placed in different positions, like arranging troops, like addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, very much like some kind of mathematical game, but Fengyun couldn't understand it.

The children were very fascinated, chanting the mantra of "One Six Gongzong, for the water to live in the north", and they didn't even notice that the wind and clouds were approaching.

Li Wenyi bowed his head and entered the house, shouting loudly: "Sister-in-law, I'm here!"

Sister-in-law, Li Greed is married! Hearing this, Fengyun also quickly followed, wanting to see what Lai Greed's wife looked like.

There was no surprise, but a little disappointed, Li Greed's wife was not good-looking, her skin was a little dark, and she was a little fat, but she smiled very plainly and honestly, and tiptoed off the jerky from the roof to invite Fengyun and Li Wen to eat.

There is a fire pit in the house, and there are neat dry firewood stacked next to it, and the ground is clean and tidy, making the house even brighter.

There was a fat boy sleeping on the couch in the animal skin, and he was sleeping sweetly with drooling at this moment.

Li Shi didn't speak much, and he didn't say much to each other, so Li Wen explained his intentions. Li Shi turned around and shouted at the crack in the wall, and after a while, Zhu Ganglie ran to the door with the climbing plow.

Li Wen still had to go back to the council room, and they were separated in front of Li Ran's house, and Zhu Ganglie was responsible for pulling Fengyun's things to Dawu.

On the way back, Fengyun grabbed the pig's strong ears and said angrily: "What are you doing to eat? I told you for a long time that you didn't see any movement, and I have to come to the door?"

Zhu Ganglie was still arrogant: "The master didn't speak, how can I give you something privately?"

Fengyun's eyes widened and he said, "Do you have a conscience? Who left you to save your life in the first place?"

"Master!"

"Hey, you're addicted to being a slave, aren't you? Do you want to go back to the Anointment?"

Zhu Ganglie shook his head and said: "There is a big witch and witch war shelter here, the master is very good to me, well-fed, warmly dressed, as long as I do a good job, I will never be beaten, what should I do when I go back?"

Fengyun was half angry and said angrily: "You say it again?"

"It's fun here, don't think about it!" said Pig Ganglie, stiffening his neck.

Fengyun kicked him and said angrily, "Go as your slave!

Pig Ganglie got up from the ground and shouted unconvinced: "I was a good patriarch when I was a patriarch, and I was a good slave when I was a slave, I am proud!"

"Get out!"
