But she didn't scold Ye Tian as soon as she came up. Instead, she smiled at Ye Tian and said, "Guests from afar, please put down my child."

Ouyang Tuo didn't think much, and directly handed the little boy back to his mother, and released the restraint on him.

"Mother, they trespassed into the Tujia village without listening to dissuasion."

The woman stroked the little boy's head and shook her head to signal him not to speak.

Ye Tian cupped his hands at the woman apologetically, and said, "I'm really sorry, we were also in a hurry, that's why we happened."

The woman nodded slowly, and said: "I heard that outsiders are going to come to the mountain gate this time, it should be you?"

Ye Tianxin said that this incident seemed to have spread throughout the Eighteen Villages. Judging from the clothes and strength of the women and boys, the Tujia Village should be the weakest of the Eighteen Villages.

If they knew about this kind of stockade, then everyone else must know about it too.

"That's right, it's us. We just want to take the opportunity to pass by, and we will definitely not disturb the people in your village."

A smile appeared on the corner of the woman's mouth again, but this smile was bitter, and she said, "It doesn't matter, as long as you are not from Shibazhai, you can come and go here as you like."

This sentence completely shocked Ye Tian, ​​he couldn't imagine what Tujiazhai had gone through to make a woman think like this.

As a xenophobic Miao Jiang, she didn't worry about outsiders at all, but was more worried about her own people.

At this time, Ouyang Tuo thought of another question and said, "Ye Tian, ​​didn't we come to break into the mountain gate? I thought the eighteen generations were all on the same mountain."

The woman sighed and explained: "That mountain only belongs to the Li people. Only the strong from the Eighteen Villages can go up that mountain. The difference in the number of strong people also leads to the difference in status. Only my man in the Tujia Village is on that mountain. "

On the contrary, she was much more magnanimous in the face of outsiders, as if she hadn't told anyone about these things for a long time, and she felt a sense of relief to confide in them.

Judging from your appearance, you should have suffered a lot here, and your life is very unsatisfactory. Why don't you leave here?
Ouyang Tuo didn't think much about it and said this directly. The woman took a deep look at Ouyang Tuo, then shook her head without getting angry.

Instead, he said: "Although there are not many people in Tujiazhai, there are more than 800 people. Do you know how difficult it is for so many people to migrate?"

"What's more, the Li people will never watch such a thing happen."

This sentence made Ye Tian smell something different, and asked: "The Li clan won't let you leave, and don't care about such things? The Lei clan is only maintaining the balance of the eighteen villages, and they have many things of their own."

Hearing this, Ouyang Tuo frowned, and couldn't help saying: "Then you ordinary people have been in a state of being slaughtered all the time, haven't you?"

"The Li nationality does not allow those practitioners to take action against us, but they never care about the affairs between ordinary people."

Ye Tian understood in an instant. To put it bluntly, the Li people's method is called freeing, and they don't participate in the fights between ordinary people.

"You mean that the people living in the village are ordinary people, that's why it happened?"

The woman didn't explain anymore, but just nodded.

Ouyang Tuo took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice, "It seems that Miaojiang is really not a good place."

Ye Tian smiled slightly, and said: "It can only show that the Li people's management ability is not very good, and there should be their difficulties." If there is no Li people, these people will only be more presumptuous.

Ouyang Tuo shrugged his shoulders. After all, he came to participate in the Litian Dajiao, not for charity, so naturally he couldn't interfere in such matters.

"Let's go."

"It's still two days away from the Eighteen Villages Mountain Gate. You can only wait outside when you arrive."

"Why?" Ye Tian asked.

The woman said naturally: "This is the rule established by the Li people. Even if you want to break into the mountain gate, you have to wait until the day before the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven."

"Miaojiang has enough rules." Ouyang Tuo couldn't help muttering.

At this moment, a person ran over in a hurry and said out of breath: "Ma'am, the people from Kejiazhai are here again." Zhuo Ya didn't panic, she said calmly, "I'll go first Look, you go to gather people."

"it is good."

"Guests from afar, I'll excuse you first. That's the direction leading to the mountain gate, but this road is not easy." After speaking, Zhuo Ya headed east, where there was already a faint voice of shouting .

Neither Ye Tian nor Ouyang Tuo moved, they just glanced at the direction Zhuo Ya was pointing at, and then looked at his back at the same time.

The two exchanged a glance with each other and followed at the same time.

"Zhuo Ya, it's time to hand in this month's offering." The leader said.

Immediately, he raised the wooden stick in his hand, and the people behind him began to chirp with ugly words.

Zhuo Ya turned a deaf ear to it, and said directly: "Sucha, don't you have to show your face, I warn you, my man will come back in a few days, and you will definitely be overwhelmed by then."

It can be seen from Sucha's still arrogant expression that he must have heard similar words more than once.

"Zhuo Ya, don't you have anything else to say? Every time the sacrifice to heaven is over, all the village masters will be allowed to come back for a month. Your man is the weakest among them. Could it be that you forgot?"

Of course Zhuo Ya didn't forget this kind of thing, the reason why she said that was just to delay the time until many people came out from behind.

But Ye Tian couldn't help shaking his head when he saw it. The Tujia village is really full of old, weak, sick and disabled people. Even if they have a slight advantage in numbers, it doesn't have any practical significance.

After all, the other party is all muscular men.

And this so-called enshrining, Ye Tian also understood, it is nothing more than a disguised form of blackmail, but it sounds nicer.

Thinking about it, if Zhuo Ya didn't give it, the other party would definitely do it.

"It's this group of people again, the last beating hasn't been enough, has it?"

Zhuo Ya's face sank like water, and said: "Sucha, I can tell you clearly that you can't take anything away today."

Sucha showed her big yellow teeth when she heard the words, and laughed sarcastically.

"Brothers, give it to me, today I not only want to rob things, I also want to rob people."

"Sucha, do you know what you're talking about?"

As long as they dare to rob people, the concept will change. Even if the Li people can't get away, they will still intervene in this matter.

This time Sucha was not worried at all, and said loudly: "Remember what I told you before?"

"Remember, as long as you ask questions, you will say that a person named Ye Tian did it."

Ye Tian in the distance was taken aback for a moment, thinking that there is still my business?
Ouyang Tuo shook his head and said, "Ye Tian, ​​the people from the Eighteen Villages really did everything they could to prevent you from going to the mountain gate."
