Fantastic scenery

Jiang Minzheng was trained to kneel on the ground, he clutched his knees with both hands, the burly man was a little at a loss.

Seeing that the village chief had no intention of stopping, Fang Shu stepped forward and coughed lightly twice, and the village chief realized his gaffe, adjusted his expression, and said with a smile: "You guys are laughing! Please come in and drink Get some water!"

You yelled at the kneeling second son, he quickly got up, glanced at Fang Shu, picked up the ax and backed away.

The construction of houses in North Korea is very different from that in the Central Plains. In the Central Plains, it is called a switch door. Fang Shu thought it should be called a "lahe door". The door is opened to open and closed to close.The doors and walls on the ground were paved with wooden boards. The village chief took off his shoes when entering the house, and entered the door barefoot. He did as the Romans did. The housekeeper and the others also took off their shoes and socks and entered the house.

Some curtains were hung in the room, and there was a low black wooden tea table in the middle of the room. The village chief sat cross-legged and extended his hand to greet the three of them. They all look alike!"

As soon as he sat down, Fang Shu didn't forget the purpose of coming, and was about to ask, a few more female relatives came, served them food and water, and brought them a wine bottle with a strong aroma of wine, Fang Shu Frowning, Ye Jingzhou is a teetotaler, his disgust is undisguised.

Huo Tailing felt strange, so he turned his head to observe.

The village head introduced that two of them were his eldest wife and second concubine. Gloomy, even the wrinkles on his face were mixed with sadness.

Fang Shu was also not interested in his family affairs, so he asked directly: "A few days ago, I heard that Japanese pirates attacked the village and killed several families. Is this true?"

The village chief sighed and did not answer directly. He took an empty cup and poured wine for them, saying, "Try it, our village's unique shochu "Qu'eryou"."

Ye Jingzhou was impatient, watching him pour the wine, he secretly thought that there was going to be a slow donkey, he asked Fang Shu: "This old man! Are you talking about something serious?!"

Huo Tailing picked up the wine glass, sniffed it carefully, drank a glass, and it was hotter than Han Nuoshan, and said: "This wine...is it for us to talk about business?!"

Fang Shu stopped welcoming the village chief, and asked directly, "Is anyone in the village injured?"

The village head saw their vigilance, and told Fang Shu, not talking about the accident two days ago, but recalling the past, more than 100 years ago, when their great fathers were persecuted by local officials and squires and left their homeland, the whole village was destroyed. After rushing to this deep mountain and old forest, the group of people who were originally in a desperate situation, in the dream, an old and crooked earth Bodhisattva, guided the ancestors of the village chief to this mountain nest. After a year, they lived and worked in peace and contentment. The ancestors dreamed that the Bodhisattva in ragged clothes said to him: "If you want to live and work in peace and contentment for a long time, you must sacrifice to him every year."

Speaking of this, the village head stopped talking again. Fang Shu didn't believe in these sacrifices and offering gods, but he was also aroused and asked: "What kind of sacrifice method?!"

The village chief shook his head and did not answer, but said: "It must be because there was no sacrifice today that the evil gods of hell were brought in. It must have been a warning two days ago, and the gods are angry!"

Fang Shu was speechless. It seemed that the village had lost contact with the outside world long ago. They didn't even know about the war that opened up half of North Korea's land. They even regarded the Japanese invaders as evil spirits for punishment.

"Then... how many families are there?"

"Hey... All six members of one family had their throats cut by the evil spirits, and all the cattle and sheep in the family disappeared. In another family, only two siblings are left, and they are still guarding the spirit at home... Hey"

As he spoke, the village head's smile had long since disappeared.

"Can you hear anything?"

"My little one, heard the movement, lifted the ax and came out, but saw a few black shadows rushing into the deep forest."

"How many shadows?!" Fang Shu focused on how many.Yesterday, I also heard Liu Dadao say that the number of Japanese invaders should be no more than a dozen, but Liu Dadao didn't dare to pat his chest to guarantee.

"A few evil spirits are also very scary!"

It seems that there is nothing to say from the village chief.

At the request of Fang Shu, the village head promised to take them to the deceased's house.

As soon as he left the door, he ran into a woman coming out of Jiang Minzhong's side courtyard. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be one of the women who had surrounded and discussed Ye Jingzhou just now. Both Ye Jingzhou and the woman were taken aback, and the woman ran away in embarrassment After they went, Jiang Minzhong leaned against the door of the room and looked at them with a half-smile, with his chest open and his white hair band on his forehead.

Jiang Min was getting dressed by the courtyard, and when he saw them coming out, he quickly surrounded him. The village chief seemed to dislike seeing the second son, so he said something harsh to him, and took him to go with him. , would be slapped on the head by his father every time.

On the way, Huo Tailing followed Fang Shu closely, and the two whispered closely.

Huo Tailing seemed to get closer on purpose, his breath tickled Fang Shu's ears, and his deep voice penetrated into his ears, "Little concubine, have you noticed anything special about this village?"

Well, being called a concubine is an addiction, so it's not good to scold him here, besides, besides the title, what he said is also serious.

"From entering the village to now, I can see that they are all old and weak women and children. Except for the two sons of the village chief's family, there are no other young and strong men... My brother also finds it strange."

In the end, Fang Shu wanted to be quick with his tongue, and he didn't want him to talk about brother and brother, but he chose to say it.

Huo Tailing: "Also...these people nodded and bowed to the village chief along the way, I don't think...this village chief looks like the emperor of Taoyuan? But it is the biggest, look, many of these other houses are leaky thatched huts..."

This point makes sense to Fang Shu, "No matter how small this village is, it can be considered a group. Naturally, it has its own rules of operation. Even animal groups are divided into different groups. What's the problem?"

Huo Tailing noticed that Jiang Min was looking back at Fang Shu, seized this moment, put his arms around Fang Shu's waist, moved closer to Fang Shu's ear, and said: "Whatever my concubine says is whatever..."

Fang Shu was also very cooperative, trying to push him away with his elbow, but he caught him, looking like flirting.

Sure enough, Jiang Minzheng reacted as Huo Tailing expected, he was a little angry, and was beaten and scolded by the village chief again.

"What on earth are you going to do?!" Fang Shu growled at him, although he didn't let Erliang and the others follow, but there were villagers all around him, so what did the simple villagers say when they saw it? !

Huo Tailing withdrew his hand and said, "Aren't you a good brother..."

This good brother really made Fang Shu lose his temper, he gave him an angry look, and walked to Ye Jingzhou's side.

Fang Shu thought that he had also had a brain twitch, and he dug a hole for himself if he wanted to say something about his brother.

The village head and Jiang Minzheng opened the door first and entered a thatched courtyard. There were faint cries inside. Before Fang Shu entered the house, a slightly rough female voice said: "My lord...it's not the end yet...how are you doing?" Are you coming?", accompanied by two sobs.

Before the village chief had time to say anything, the woman in the hemp mourning circle noticed the three strangely dressed strangers, with red eyes and lowered heads. Beside her was a man who was not as weak as the crown, wearing a hemp mourning collar. In the mourning hat, the facial features of the two have eight points alike, like dragon and phoenix twins, the sister and brother gave birth to a good embryo, but the skin is a little sallow, and even the hair is a little yellow, which is probably caused by malnutrition.

Inside the house, two corpses were covered with a white cloth on the seven-star board. There was no coffin and coffin, and the heads of the corpses were facing outside the house.

Ye Jingzhou said: "The corpse should face west."

The mountain is shrouded in white mist. I only know that it is daytime, but I can't see the sun. I don't know what time it is, and I can't tell the east from the west.

Only after hearing what Ye Jingzhou said did he know the direction of the West.

The two siblings hid behind the village head, who said: "They have never seen outsiders, and they have lost their parents, so they are afraid."

Fang Shu smiled at his siblings, thanking him for his good skin. Although his face was injured, the tender red scar didn't seem to affect it, but it added a kind of bloody charm, and this smile was a little captivating.

The elder sister was not so scared, and returned the gift to Fang Shu.

Some unnamed wild fruits were placed at the lobby door, and Fang Shu kowtowed three times to the corpses.

Ye Jingzhou followed suit.

Huo Tailing stood motionless, the dead body had no feelings for him, he didn't bother to pretend to mourn.

It is a big event for outsiders to come to this village. The village head decided to hold a party around the fire for everyone. This is only held by villagers during festivals.

Fang Shu has been refusing, but the village head insisted on insisting, the hospitality is hard to turn down, Fang Shu led 50 soldiers to participate in this activity.

In a large open space by the stream, villagers and soldiers sat scattered around the big fire.

That Jiang Min was looking at Fang Shu shyly trying to get close to him, but was pushed away by Huo Tailing. When Fang Shu saw him, he smiled back apologetically at Jiang Minzheng, and then asked Huo Tailing viciously: "What are you doing?" What is this for? Does it have to offend everyone?"

Huo Tailing was a little aggrieved, and after thinking about it, his stomach became angry: "Are you a pig brain! Don't even know if you are slaughtered!"

Fang Shu turned his head and chatted with the village aunt beside him, which seemed to choke Huo Tailing, and Huo Tailing simply drank wine with the woman beside him. Fang Shu was very worried that the Japanese invaders would make a surprise attack now, So he greeted the soldiers before the party started, and he never let down his vigilance.

The village head killed and roasted two sheep in the family, and each household brought their own home-brewed wine and some snacks such as kimchi.

It's just that most of the villagers are women, and they treat the soldiers very warmly.

Fang Shu was very enthusiastic towards the aunt, saying: "You guys are so lively!"

There were many grandpas and aunts dancing on the side, it was really lively.

The aunt looked at the handsome young man smiling at her like a spring breeze, and she was a little complacent, so she talked about the customs and customs of their village. Unfortunately, the aunt's teeth were sparse, and her words were a bit leaky. Mongolian.

It turns out that the so-called festivals in this village are very different from the festivals outside. There is no Spring Festival, Lantern Festival, or even the family festival Huijia Festival. There was a three-day festival to send off the gods, and there would be singing and dancing by the river like this, and then there was the sacrificial festival in winter, but there was only one day, and he sighed, saying that there was no sacrifice this year.

Fang Shu listened to the sacrificial ceremony twice today, and when he wanted to ask the aunt what happened to the sacrificial ceremony, the mother-in-law faltered and began to gossip about him.

Moreover, what kind of god-walking festival and god-giving festival are set by the village chief, saying that only by respecting the gods can there be a bumper harvest and self-sufficiency and endless life.

The aunt suddenly asked: "Are there many monsters outside?" Fang Shu was feeling strange and wanted to answer, but was interrupted by Jiang Minzhong, who was behind her mother-in-law and said, "Grandma Park, what are you talking about? Why don't you go get some sweet potatoes and bake them?"

Jiang Minzhong's superficial smile was not smiling, a bit pervasive, Granny Park got up quickly, and bowed several times to Jiang Minzhong, looking terrified, stooped and walked away.

Jiang Minzhong glanced at Fang Shu, Fang Shu just smiled at him, but he ignored him and walked away.

Huo Tailing at the side drank the song, and hugged the girl beside him while drinking, and the girl kept pouring the wine. The girl was slightly fat, but she was fair and clean, her eyes were big and round, and she looked very She's cute, and doesn't reject Huo Tailing's closeness, on the contrary, she has the meaning of throwing herself into her arms.

Fang Shu pulled Huo Tailing over and said, "Drink less! What has become of you?!"

I don't know how much Huo Tailing drank, he broke free from Fang Shu's hand, his face was a little red, he was drunk, and said: "Take care of yourself!"

Then he put the girl's shoulders on her shoulders again, looking very dazzling, before Fang Shu's second wave of harassing Huo Tailing, Jiang Min was resisting a big pottery vat and walked to the fire, the villagers were all excited, The village head said: "This is the tonic wine of the village, specially for the strong men!"

The girls were also excited.

It's just that the soldiers couldn't understand what he said, let alone the sudden excitement of the villagers. Beside Ye Jingzhou was the woman who came out of Jiang Minzhong's room during the day. Her name was Pu Zhuoer. depend on each other.

Ye Jingzhou was on the other side of the room, and asked, "What did this old fellow say?"

"It is said that the tank is tonic wine... By the way, where is Erliang?"

"Just now I said to go to the hut, the girls here... are more enthusiastic than Sister Yao... It's weird!"

Fang Shu sighed, glanced at Huo Tailing and the girl in his arms, and said: "Maybe the folk customs here are like this, and it's not rigid, just don't let the brothers indulge, it's a bad thing!"

Ye Jingzhou nodded, "Don't worry about Fuyan, I don't drink alcohol, I will watch over my brothers."

"Take care of Orleans by the way."

"Don't worry! I see him avoiding women like a snake and a scorpion... He was so scared that he couldn't come out in the toilet..."

Fang Shu felt a little depressed.

Jiang Min scooped the first bowl to Huo Tailing, looked at the girl in his arms, and said, "Enjoy yourself tonight!" This sentence was understood by only Fang Shu besides the villagers.

To Fang Shu's surprise, they actually cheered... It's not like the Yaozi, but it's just too weird...

Huo Tailing blocked his hand, and Jiang Min froze in mid-air with his hand.

Huo Tailing stood up tremblingly, Fang Shu stepped forward to help him, but he also blocked his hand, saying: "Go and put some water!", and walked towards the direction of the hut.

Jiang Min forgot the embarrassment just now, and added a bowl for each of the soldiers. Fang Shu looked at the red wine in the brown-yellow ceramic bowl. The aroma of the wine was not enough, and the fishy smell was even worse...

He couldn't drink it, but Jiang Minzheng just looked at him straight, and in order to prove that it was harmless, he also drank two bowls. In this case, if Fang Shu didn't drink any more, it would seem a bit unreasonable, and he swallowed it in two gulps. I took a bowl, fortunately, the wine is not strong, but I can't tell it's weird.

But Erliang ran over in a hurry, his face was pale, and there was fine sweat on his forehead. Fang Shu saw that he was not in the right state, no one had noticed, got up and dragged Erliang to a slightly deserted corner.

Erliang's expression was painful, and he didn't know what to say, "It's just... oh... he... he saw it!"

Fang Shu comforted him, but he also panicked, his limbs were frightened by Erliang, "Speak slowly!"

Erliang took two deep breaths, pointed to the pinch mark on his neck, it was still fresh, Fang Shu was shocked, there were very few people who could beat Erliang, "Who did it?! What's going on?! "Could it be that there are some extraterrestrial masters hidden in this village? !

Erlian's answer was beyond his expectation.

"It's Huo Tailing!"

"?!"

Erliang was very frightened and said, "I was going to the latrine, and the door was broken...he saw it...know it."

"It's...it's okay! Don't worry, you can't know anything after seeing it?!" Fang Shu comforted himself.

"Young master...let's kill him...he almost strangled me just now", these words came from Erliang, which shocked Fang Shu even more.

Erliang knew that Fang Shu was in a dilemma, "Find an opportunity to hit it! It doesn't matter if I die, but I can't drag the young master down!" Erliang's stubborn killing intent made Fang Shu lose his usual reason.

"What time is it now?! This Japanese pirate has no information yet, it's just nonsense!!"

Erliang was so yelled at by Fang Shu that he lowered his head, "Master... make sure everything is safe... Isn't that what you often say?"

Erliang's voice was weeping, Fang Shu realized that he might have hurt him, and said: "Let's see the situation first, if you act rashly, you will be even more suspicious!"

"Young master... sacrificed so much, you can't put it on him..."

"Okay! I know! Properly!"

His mind was so heavy that Fang Shu's legs felt like lead, and when he returned to the place where he was sitting just now, Huo Tailing had already returned, he bent his back and remained motionless, and the girl beside him shook him several times without moving.He muttered something in his mouth, the voice was too low, like a mosquito, Fang Shu bent down to listen closely, and there was only one word repeated: "little concubine".

Fang Shu's heart was originally in a mess, but when he heard it, he felt a bit of stomachache.

The village chief took a look, walked over, and said, "This lord is probably drunk...how about sending him to the side yard of my house to rest?"

Erliang lowered his head and sat between Ye Jingzhou and Fang Shu, quietly watching the burning fire.

Ye Jingzhou blushed because of the restless harassment of the woman beside him, and he didn't notice Erliang.

Fang Shu nodded, and then prepared to set him up. The girl next to him was obviously very disappointed, like a cat that caught a mouse and ran away.

Huo Tailing pushed him away and wanted to beg for a drink. Jiang Minzai added a bowl of so-called tonic wine for him, but Fang Shu snatched it away. The fishy smell wafting from the wine became even stronger. The smell made Fang Shu's brows furrowed into a ball.

Fang Shu pushed back the wine, ignoring Huo Tailing's resistance, and forced him to take him back to the village chief's house to settle down.

Before leaving, he looked at the soldiers who were fainted from drinking, and said to Ye Jingzhou: "Tell them not to drink!"

Looking at the gloomy Erliang again, Fang Shu remembered what he said just now, and he was a little worried that something would happen to Erliang at this time.

Jiang Minzai was always very enthusiastic about Fang Shu, the young man offered to help Fang Shu support Huo Tailing, but Huo Tailing refused to follow him, and only wanted to rely on Fang Shu, Jiang Minzai had no choice but to walk ahead and open the way, looking back from time to time two people.

After walking through the courtyard, Fang Shu realized that the village chief's house was really big, and he just wandered around the front yard for a while during the day, only to find that there was a courtyard behind the courtyard when he came in.

Jiang Min pointed to the room on the far left, and said: "That is...my room...if your lord doesn't mind...you can share the bed with me. This lord can sleep in that room, but it's a little small. , Ping... usually no one... people use it."

Stutters when nervous.

Before Fang Shu had time to refuse, the Huo Tailing hanging on him tightened his grip, almost out of breath.

"For your kindness, my brother needs my care."

His first reaction was a surprise attack by Perlian or Japanese pirates.

Jiang Minzai was a little disappointed, but also a little lucky, "So it's my younger brother, hehe, I'll go and prepare bedding for you."

After sleeping in the shed for several months, I can finally rest in the wooden house. Just after Huo Tailing was put down, Fang Shu was also lying on the ground tired. After getting off the bed, it was still soft, the cold bed boards in this barracks were much better.

Looking at Huo Tailing's slightly trembling eyelashes, he remembered Erliang's words, if he really saw it, it would indeed be a matter of losing his head.

kill him?Fang Shu asked himself repeatedly in his heart, grasping the scenery at his waist tightly, killing him at this time, and saying that it was the Japanese pirates, he could justify himself.

He was still muttering, "Little concubine... little concubine... good brother..."

Fang Shu took the opportunity to slap him, not hard but with a crisp voice, "Nonsense!"

What if he didn't see it, he was so drunk that he was unconscious, and he might forget it when he saw it, he was full of nonsense, and he was also a lifesaver, and he also made great contributions to resisting the Japanese...

Take a step and watch one step at a time..., hey, I also take a step and watch one step at a time.

Fang Shu took down the scenery and put it on top of his head, and lay down next to Huo Tailing, an arm suddenly came across his waist.

Fang Shu pushed him with his elbow and said, "Stinky boy! Are you awake?"

He didn't respond, and let him hang on.

Fang Shu was really tired after a day of running around, but he couldn't sleep. The pirates were like beasts, secretly waiting for an opportunity.

He lay down for a while, wanting to pick up his sword and go out to patrol, but suddenly he smelled a strange fragrance, his heart was not good, his limbs were weak, he couldn't even open his mouth, only his eyes could move.

The door opened with a creak, and someone approached, the veins on Fang Shu's forehead popped up, but he couldn't even lift his fingertips.

"Min Zai, tell me, there are so many women in the village, you don't want to do it, you just like men. But this adult looks really handsome..."

"Brother...don't tell father..."

Fang Shu stared angrily, looking at the two black figures beside him.

Fang Shu's quilt was lifted by them.

"You said they were brothers... Brothers sleeping with their arms around each other like this? Evil or not?"

When Jiang Min heard this, he picked up the ax and was about to chop Huo Tailing aside.

Jiang Minzhong held him back, "Are you crazy?! Damn it! You're going to die sooner or later, this is the best product for a sacrifice!"

Jiang Min reluctantly put down the axe.

"You brat! I don't think you just want to mess with this lord, it's love at first sight!!"

Jiang Min was silent.

"I can warn you, if you want to raise it in captivity, I will tell father right away!"

"Brother... You were the one who told my father the secret back then, and gave him my Yangfengchun painting collection... Don't think I don't know!"

"I still need to inform you?! When those women didn't work to seduce you, my father probably knew!"

"Then... you took advantage of the trend and won your father's appreciation again?!"

"Usually you can't fart, but today you are sharp-tongued! Brat!"

With a slap, Jiang Minzhong slapped Jiang Minzai.

"Don't even think about me helping you, I'll tell my father right away! This adult has to be on the altar too!!"

As soon as he heard the sound of two steps, there was a sudden blow. Jiang Minzhong was hit on the head and fell to the ground.

"Don't think I don't know! You will tell me anyway!! Isn't it because you are afraid that the position of village chief will be lost?"

Fang Shu heard the two brothers yelling at each other and killed each other, and when he was in shock, Fang Shu was already held on the shoulder by Jiang Min, and was led into the night by him.
