tall and rhubarb

Gao Chang and Da Huang climbed over the wall and returned to the village, and then entered their house without a sound. They went to Suobo's room to say hello to Simba, and then fell asleep with one person and one dog. They slept until nearly night. At seven o'clock, when Bai Bao came to take pictures of the gate of their house, he was woken up.

"Why?" Gao Chang narrowed his eyes and yawned, and came out to open the door with a face of reluctance.

"Something happened at the elementary school." Those mutant people have always been a thorn in Bai Bao's heart, but now that the thorn has been pulled out, this guy doesn't seem very happy. "Come on, talk in the yard."

"Okay, I'll be there in a while." Gao Chang waved his hand, telling him to leave quickly like a fly.

"Tsk, it looks like your family slept well, and you didn't send Suobo to class." Bai Bao was not in a hurry to leave, and sent his brothers to notify those who should be notified.

"Isn't it raining? Baohua Temple puts these dolls on vacation for a few days." Gao Chang turned and went back to the house to get dressed, and pulled Rhubarb up from the bed. This guy is still sleeping soundly on the bed, Gao Chang I don't want him to sleep in a dog shape since he lost all the hair on the bed, and it's very troublesome to clean up.

"The rain has stopped long ago. I have never seen parents who don't care as much as you. Other people's children have just been sent to Baohua Temple..." Bai Bao was still standing at the door of his house, muttering, while Gao Chang was in the room. Li didn't care about it, what's wrong with missing a day of class, he used to skip classes a lot, and now he doesn't seem to be any worse than others.

When Gao Chang and the others arrived in the yard, other people in the village had also arrived, and the whole yard was packed to the brim.Everyone had already eaten, so Gao Chang took the hot food from the pot, found a corner, led his family to eat, and listened to them by the way.The villagers didn't care about Gao Chang's late waking up. His family didn't have to draw lots to work, so they often went to bed later than others. Others in the village also went to bed later when they didn't have to work. This was very common.

"Presumably everyone has heard some rumors that something happened at the elementary school. When our brothers arrived, the Zhuangzi had already been burned to the ground. It seems that most of the people in it were dead. I don't know what happened. Something happened, so in the recent period, everyone should be careful, and don't run outside if you have nothing to do." When everyone arrived, Bai Bao spoke first, and he was originally the one who gathered everyone together today of.

After hearing Bai Bao's words, the yard suddenly buzzed, and everyone in the whole village died. This was not a small matter for them, so someone asked, "What's the use of staying in the village? The mutants are all dead." dead, can we still hide?"

"Why, do the folks think that our brothers are not as good as those mutants? If that's true, can those mutants weave for us obediently? We've adjusted it a long time ago." When Bai Bao said this, the expression on his face suddenly became serious. stand up. "Speaking of weaving, I do have something on me, and everyone should follow suit."

Bai Bao took out half of a burnt yellow leaf from his breast pocket. Although it had been burnt badly, the villagers dealt with it every day, so how could they not recognize it.

"Mulberry leaves!" Someone immediately revealed its identity.Those with a little more quick brains have already guessed where Baibao got the mulberry leaf. They were shocked and angry for a moment, and the mulberry leaf appeared at the elementary school. What does this mean?

Bai Bao scanned everyone's expressions and said, "This is indeed a mulberry leaf, isn't it? When our brothers dug out the ruins of the elementary school just now, I thought I was wrong. If they didn't have silkworm chrysalis, What do you need mulberry leaves for? In this village, life is better than other villages because of this little thing. Every household has some cloth. Who can figure out how this thing got out of our village? of?"

"It's hard to say, and it's not necessarily that we villagers did it." It was Uncle Wu who spoke.

"That's right, it's also possible that someone under my command did it. There is no evidence for this matter. It's too early to draw conclusions. I will definitely investigate my own people. If I find out the white-eyed wolf who is eating inside and out, see I’m not skinning him and cramping him!” Although Bai Bao scolded a lot, his eyes flicked back and forth over the villagers in the yard, as if he was sure that the insider was among the group of people.

"People in our village, we will investigate by ourselves." At this time, Uncle Wu's attitude was also very tough.

"Okay, check it out yourself, check it out carefully, find out which moth is the moth, and dig it out early, so that we won't capsize the ship together one day." In Bai Bao's and his group's view, internal thieves and spies are the most heinous. It's too much, but after all, he doesn't have the final say on all the affairs in the village. There are a few capable people in the village, and Gao Chang's attitude is relatively subtle.What's more, they are now in a mutually beneficial relationship, which is really torn apart, and it's not good for anyone, just because of this, it's really unnecessary.

When Bai Bao and the others had gone far away, there was a commotion in the courtyard. Just now they were unanimous to the outside world, but now that the outsiders have left, it's time to settle the accounts.Although Uncle Wu said that the villagers did not necessarily do it, and Bai Bao didn't deny it, obviously, everyone still believed that the thief must be from the village.

Because Bai Bao’s yard doesn’t raise silkworms, if he wants to get silkworm chrysalis outside, he has to get them from the villagers. If he wants to steal them, it’s hard not to make noise, or someone will respond. In this way, there must still be villagers involved. .If you insist on saying that they raised them secretly and gave them to the people in the elementary school, it makes sense, but it’s too much. If you want to raise silkworms, you have to pick mulberry leaves every day. The village is not big, so it’s impossible to hide it from everyone. so easy.

Therefore, everyone believed that the inner thief came out of the two yards of Aoli and Xiwei. In addition, during this period of time, people from various villages would go to the beach to hang crabs, and there were many opportunities to contact each other. It's so easy to order something.

"If you want me to say, why are we still protecting him? Why don't we just let Bai Bao and the others investigate, and what to do if they find out." Zheng Zhanpeng groaned angrily. Weaving?Doesn't this mean that life is too good?

"Don't talk foolishly." Old Ninth Uncle scolded: "People in our village, when do we have to rely on others? If we want to kill or cut, we will do it ourselves."

"If you can do it, let you do it. Anyway, I can't do it." Zheng Chunhua bared disapprovingly.

"If you can't do it, just drive out of the village." Zheng Guohong, who had been silent all this time, said at this time: "In the future, if something like this happens in our village, everyone votes together, and more than half of the people agree. No matter who it is, everyone will give I'm getting out of the village. Old Ninth Uncle, Fifth Uncle, Guozhong, what do you say?"

"I think it's okay. If we don't set some rules, it seems that it won't work." Zheng Guozhong, the representative of the yard at the end of Yuanxi, first expressed his agreement.

"I have no objection." Fifth uncle also agreed, but the expression on his face was a little sad. None of the old people in the village would like to see the juniors being kicked out.

"Then it's settled. If anything happens in the future, the village is full, regardless of gender, and everyone will vote, anonymously." Old Ninth Uncle added.

"Then who decides what to vote for and what not to vote for?" The careful villagers soon discovered the problem. If no one initiates the proposal of the folks in this village, no one can say who to vote for. You must not offend people to death?

"There were originally three courtyards in our village, but now they have been merged into two, but when it comes to voting, they are still three. Everyone chooses one who is convinced. There are three courtyards and three people. If two people agree to vote, we Just vote." Zheng Guobang is quite familiar with these village affairs, and the suggestions he put forward are also very reasonable.

Soon, the representatives of the three courtyards were elected by secret ballot, but the result was still within everyone's expectations. The courtyard in Aoli was Old Ninth Uncle, and the courtyard in Shangkan was Fifth Uncle. The yard at Xiwei is Zheng Guozhong.

"Gao Chang, do you have any comments on what we're talking about tonight?" At the end, Old Ninth Uncle asked Gao Chang again.

"I have no opinion, but there is something that I need to inform everyone in advance." Gao Chang put down his chopsticks and wiped his mouth, still smiling hippie. "Some people are still taking chances at the moment, thinking that it's okay to be kicked out, as long as they bring silkworm chrysalis, they will still be offered food and drink. I just want to say, whoever wants to bring silkworm chrysalis out, We definitely have to take it back, if you don’t believe it, just try, but if there is a casualty or something, don’t blame me.”

As soon as Gao Chang said this, the hearts of the villagers thumped. Some people couldn't help thinking, those people in the elementary school were killed by Gao Chang, right?Just for a few silkworm chrysalis?Not at all, and no matter how powerful Gao Chang is, he might not be the opponent of those mutants. They still have guns, so there are so many people.Could it be that Gao Chang and Bai Bao did it together?It doesn't make sense, killing people for silkworm chrysalis...

All that needs to be said has been said, and the stomach is full. Gao Chang took his family's two-legged and four-legged winged ones, and wandered out of the village, regardless of what the villagers thought or discussed in private.With nothing to do, Gao Chang planned to go to Baohua Temple and send Suobo there, although it was a bit late.Of course, the main purpose is to observe those monks and see if all of them can see the blue sunlight as nothingness like their abbots.

Today, when Gao Chang was talking with the great monk during the day, he suddenly remembered what Wei Chengying had said to him back then. After being exposed to the sun, he lost control of his emotions and was so angry that people couldn’t help but want to destroy and vent. It's almost the process of dying.These monks eat fast and chant Buddha every day, presumably in terms of state of mind, they are much calmer and more open-minded than ordinary people. If they can control their emotions and not be controlled by anger, the process of mutation will definitely be smoother than ordinary people, and the death rate will be lower.

If things are really as Gao Chang imagined, then the nearby villages are really treasures, especially for these children who can read and write in the temple. It must be beneficial to receive the influence of Buddhism in the temple every day.And children who truly have Buddha nature, even if they become mutated in the future, will certainly not be as easily confused by authority as Lin Fang and the others.

As soon as Gao Chang arrived at Baohua Temple, he saw Bai Bao coming out of it.

"Hey, Gao Chang, I just talked about chartering a boat with the abbot, and I will go north to Shijiazhuang in a few days. I heard from the radio that there is a trading port there now. Would you like to go with us?"

"I said you acted very fast. You were showing your power in our yard just now, and you negotiated a deal with the great monk in a blink of an eye." Gao Chang said with a smile.

"I'm showing my power. You villagers don't let you move. What can we do? I said, what are your plans this time? Let me tell you, kill those evil spirits as soon as possible, or you will be stabbed sooner or later."

"This time it should stop for a while." Gao Chang shook his head. The voting system they proposed today is quite good. If they really want to implement a high-pressure policy, it will make everyone in the village feel insecure, which is meaningless. These things Gao Chang I have never been too lazy to care, as long as it is not too outrageous, let him go.

"Don't talk about it, Shijiazhuang, are you going or not?" The hidden danger of mutants is gone, and Bai Bao has accumulated a lot of things during this time, so he is anxious to explore the way, and he doesn't ask for any big things this time. Harvest, let's go over and see what is the best market, so they can have a goal in the future.

"Is there any benefit?"

"I don't charge you for the boat ticket even if you bring the goods, isn't this good enough? Do you know how much cloth the monks have earned for renting this boat this time?" Speaking of this, Bai Bao thought Still depressed. "There are so many cloths in your house, including the monk's, I don't have much space left. If it weren't for our friendship, I wouldn't be willing to give up the blood. By the way, how much cloth is there in your house now? "

"Hey, I'm not familiar." This is the truth, the pile of cloth at home is getting more and more, Gao Chang was very fresh and happy at the beginning, but after a long time, he didn't even bother to count.

"Come with us, so much cloth, if you entrust it to me, you will have to deduct a lot of hard work." Bai Bao continued to lobby.

"Let me think about it again. Once the sea is flooded, people who are unfamiliar with life will not capsize or run aground?" Safety comes first, and it's easy to earn hundreds of years of life, so don't just throw it into the sea, it's too bad worthy.

"What are you worrying about? After leaving our mountainous area, the north will be a flat river. Besides, sonar is installed on the boat. There are a few young monks in Baohua Temple who are good at sailing. This time, they will also bring goods with them."

"When are you leaving?" Gao Chang was a little moved. He has never been out to sea since he was so old.

"the day after tomorrow."

"So fast!"

"Hurry up, just go to Shijiazhuang. I have traveled all over the world, and have been to the other side of the world many times before. It's a ball to go around the country, so I can go as soon as I say."

"..." The person who had never been outside the border in two lifetimes fell silent.

Bai Bao invited Gao Chang this time, and he also had some other thoughts. Regarding the matter of the mutated person, Bai Bao still has some doubts in his heart. It has been raining for several days recently, and everywhere is very humid. It is impossible for the elementary school to be burned like that.This shows one thing, the mutants were killed collectively, and the elementary school was caught on fire, not a natural disaster.

Since it was made by humans, the scope is much smaller. The brothers under Bai Bao's subordinates run on this mountain every day, and it is difficult for them not to notice any outsiders.It's not outsiders. In this area, only Gao Chang's family was unknown to Bai Bao. Now a group of monks came. If one of them really did it, the mutants would die. Still very safe.

If it wasn't for one of them, then I invite Gao Chang to go out now. With the relationship between Gao Chang and those people in the village, I must be worried about their safety. If he really leaves with him at ease, it means that those people Even if Gao Chang didn't kill the mutant, he definitely knew something.

In short, Bai Bao's stomach was circling around, and he came to such a conclusion: as long as Gao Chang can go out at ease, he has nothing to worry about.If Gao Chang is worried about going out, then he has nothing to worry about. The brothers who stayed at home are still covered by Gao Chang.
