Chapter Eighty-Seven: Retention
dragged Yang Fanhai all the way to the center of the village, and saw that a large amount of food had been prepared here, and even a bonfire had been set up, but it was not lit.
Many aunts and aunts were preparing food with a group of girls, and the center of the village was already steaming.
The head of the wolf king brought back was placed on a wooden frame, and many villagers watched from the side, amazed. The size of the black wolf is like a calf, and the wolf king is even more like a big scalper.
Such a big wolf, if you don't see it with your own eyes, it's really unbelievable.
Seeing Yang Fanhai, who was pulled over by the old village chief, all the villagers gathered around, with an excited face, and they could feel a burst of gratitude in their eyes.
Those who have not experienced it do not know how terrible the wolf plague really is. In recent years, the villagers who have died from the wolf's mouth in the village will not be less than the black snake that has swallowed it for so many years, and now Yang Fanhai has exterminated the wolves, which is equivalent to countless living people, how can you not thank you.
A group of people were babbling words of thanks, and they were so surrounded that Yang Fanhai didn't know how to look at Princess Jinglu who came over from outside the crowd, with a helpless face.
Princess Jinglu smiled slightly, and made a relieved expression, she had experienced too many such situations, and knew that she could only get through it slowly.
After talking for a long time, the old village chief finally announced the start of the celebration, and everyone sat down, drank their own rice wine, and began to eat.
It's just that Yang Fanhai's suffering is still not over, and people keep coming over to toast. Some young people are just that, the old people in those villages are very senior, and it is not good not to drink them, so they can only drink them cup by cup.
Princess Jinglu sat beside her, as if she was really like the little sister of the Yang family, and she didn't speak, but just poured wine and vegetables for her eldest brother Yang, with a smile on her face.
Between the banquets, some villagers stepped forward to perform their own unique skills, although it was not very amazing, let alone pleasing to the eye, but it was quite suitable for the current atmosphere.
The wolves were exterminated, and it was a great blessing that Kangjia Village did not do farm work for a day, and celebrated until the evening.
The bonfire was lit, and the firelight was reflected on the head of the wolf king not far away, and Yang Fanhai looked at it with inexplicable emotion.
Putting aside some natural disasters and beasts, Kangjia Village is indeed a good place, with simple people, abundant products, and can stay away from the war, no wonder these people don't want to leave.
Now that the snake has been killed and the wolf plague has been removed, the people here will naturally live and work in peace and contentment in the future. They are happy, but what about themselves, where are their roots?
Just as his thoughts were surging, the old village chief came over again: "Come, come, come, Da Lang, let's have a few more drinks." You're a good drinker!"
Although the degree of self-brewed rice wine in the village is not high, it has a lot of stamina, and it can be drunk for a day without pouring, just like the old village chief. Yang Fanhai drank more than him, but he was still awake at the moment, which naturally shocked him.
Yang Fanhai smiled and didn't say much. Naturally, he didn't drink as much as he could, and now he was not just a simple martial artist, but also a cultivator. As soon as the Xuan Gong in the body turns, it can easily dissolve most of the alcoholic strength.
The old village chief sat down, had a drink with Yang Fanhai, glanced at the bonfire and said, "The Yang family's sister seems to be almost in good health. ”
The villagers celebrated, singing and dancing around the bonfire, and pulled Princess Jinglu over. Princess Jinglu is already approachable, and she likes to have fun with the people, so she naturally won't refuse.
The royal disciples, although they have never really cultivated, must also have a way to strengthen their bodies. Princess Jinglu's physique is not bad, and in the past five or six days, she has recovered eighty percent.
Yang Fanhai also looked at Princess Jinglu by the bonfire, she changed into the villagers' clothes, she still couldn't hide her natural beauty, the bonfire was sparkling, reflecting her face like a flower, which was extraordinarily beautiful.
"Da Lang, where are you from?" the old village chief suddenly asked again.
"We ......" Yang Fanhai shook his head: "People who are wandering in the four seas!"
No matter how harmonious the atmosphere is at the moment, but the fact that Ji and Chang are enemy countries cannot be changed, and there are some things that are better to lie with good intentions.
"People who wander all over the world!" didn't think that the old village chief's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he hurriedly said: "Then you can be in my Kangjia village, although you are a foreign surname, our village is not exclusive, and it has long been like a family." ”
Generally, such a large surname village will reject people with foreign surnames, but Kangjia Village is different, to deal with wolf plague and snake plague, the more people the more beneficial. In the face of the danger of life and death, there are no careful thoughts at all, and they have long lived in peace.
Yang Fanhai shook his head, naturally refusing without hesitation: "I'm sorry, uncle, we can't stay, when my sister-in-law is well, we have to leave." ”
"Why! There are not a few people like you who come to my Kangjia Village!" The old village chief did not give up and continued to lobby: "You and the Yang family's sister are talented and beautiful, just a good pair, and it is not beautiful to stay here and become your own son!"
"Poof!" Yang Fanhai squirted out a mouthful of wine, and stammered: "Uncle, you're joking, that's my sister." ”
"Eh!" The old village chief waved his hand: "Don't tell me this, your uncle and I are also from here, how can I not see it." Although you and the Yang family's sister are both quite handsome, they are completely different at all, and you can tell at a glance that they are not brothers and sisters. ”
"And every time you finish serving, you are guarding outside the Yang family's sister, which is the appearance of the eldest brother, at first glance, it is the young man who is guarding his sweetheart. ”
"Besides, every time the sister of the Yang family calls you, you are 'Brother Yang', you are so old, and you haven't seen your sister call your brother with a surname, and at a glance, you know that Mo is talking about brothers and sisters, I'm afraid that cousins are not. ”
"Ahem, ahem!"
Yang Fanhai coughed heavily a few times, unable to refute. Speaking of cultivation, a thousand old village chiefs are not his opponents, but if you talk about this person's sophisticated eyesight, a thousand of them are not comparable to the old village chief.
"The girl of the Yang family is really smart, it's the first time I've seen such a handsome girl in my life, Da Lang, you really have a vision. The old village chief said to himself, thinking about how to persuade Yang Fanhai.
Yang Fanhai shook his head: "Uncle, you really misunderstood, me and her are definitely not what you think!"
"No!" the old village chief frowned, then thought of something and hurriedly said, "If not, it doesn't matter, I'll go and persuade the most beautiful girl in our village to marry you." ”
talked about how beautiful Princess Jinglu was, but the only one who really wanted to stay was Yang Fanhai.
"Uncle said it was funny, I really have something important to do, I really can't stay, I can only understand my kindness!"
At this time, Yang Fanhai was in a cold sweat, and it was definitely not drunk from drinking.
"But you said that you are not a couple, I really don't believe it!" The old village chief shook his head again and said: "If you are not your sweetheart, how can you protect her so desperately, the Yang family's sister looks at you obviously differently!"
"Uh!" Yang Fanhai looked in the direction of the bonfire for a moment, and at this time, Princess Jinglu also looked over, looked at each other, and showed a knowing smile, which made his heart tremble slightly, and hurriedly avoided it.
"I'll just say it!" said the old village chief.
As if sensing that the atmosphere here was a little weird, Princess Jinglu said something to a few people around her, and then walked over with a light lotus step.
The old village chief patted Yang Fanhai on the shoulder and walked away meaningfully.
Princess Jinglu came over and asked with a smile, "Brother Yang, what are you talking to the village chief?"
At this time, Yang Fanhai was a little afraid to look directly at Princess Jinglu, so he could only pretend not to care and look to the side and say, "He wants to keep us!"
Glancing at the villagers of Kangjia Village who were singing and dancing, Princess Jinglu's face suddenly appeared a little melancholy: "It's really good here, without these beasts, I'm afraid that the entire Changguo and Jiguo won't be able to find a second place like this." If I could, I would have liked to stay here, but unfortunately, I can't...... Brother Yang, you're ......"
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Yang Fanhai: "Don't think about it, even if you can do it, I can't! When you are healed, we will set off to go back, and Captain Huangfu should be looking for us everywhere." ”
It's not to comfort Princess Jinglu, but it's really impossible to stay here.
Princess Jinglu didn't know, and thought it was Yang Fanhai who wanted to escort her, so she smiled faintly to express her gratitude, and then shook her head and said, "No, we won't go back, go directly to the capital of Changguo!"
"Ah!" Yang Fanhai was stunned: "Why!"
Princess Jinglu sat down beside Yang Fanhai, looking at the starry sky in the distance, her face suddenly became full of sadness.
"I came to Changguo, not to play, but to meet with the king of Changguo and conclude an armistice alliance. Time is running out and I don't want to waste it. ”
"Covenant!"
Yang Fanhai was even more surprised, not to mention that the two countries are already on the same page now, and it is difficult to stop, just getting the lord of the Ji country to agree to a truce is an incredible thing.
"Don't think it's incredible!" Princess Jinglu sighed, and seemed to see what Yang Fanhai was thinking: "My father is a reckless man, he really doesn't want to stop the war, but the matter is beyond him. ”
"Why?" Yang Fanhai asked in astonishment.
Princess Jinglu didn't answer, but asked rhetorically, "I had already heard before I came, and you caught that scout with the bear country, right?"
Yang Fanhai nodded.
"Before the battle of Langkou Mountain, Changguo knew the movement of our ** team well, because there were scouts from Xiongguo who leaked all the information of our defense line to Changguo. ”
"It should be so!" Yang Fanhai nodded again: "Youxiong Country also directly lent people and horses to Changguo, and the two sides seem to be about to conclude an alliance." ”
"It's not that simple!" Princess Jinglu shook her head and said, "I have been to the border during that time, but this bear country did not tell Changguo the news. Obviously, they didn't want to help Changguo destroy our Ji country, but just wanted to intensify the war between the two countries. ”
"Exacerbate the war between the two countries!"
Yang Fanhai was even more puzzled, in his opinion, even if no one came to urge, the war between Changguo and Jiguo would become more and more intense.
Princess Jinglu took a breath and said with a heavy face.
"If my guess is correct, Youxiong Kingdom wants to capture Changguo and my Ji Kingdom in one fell swoop, and then bring the entire Yanzhou under his command. ”
