In Beimo, the bandit suppression brigade that started from the Jin Kingdom has arrived at the village at the foot of the Perak Mountain.
But the strange thing is that, according to the information, in the early years, the mountain bandits raged and wiped out human nature. The surrounding villages were deeply affected, and they should have been completely abandoned.
But what they saw was a lively village, with two pregnant women enjoying the shade at the entrance of the village, and sporadic women working in the fields at the entrance of the village. The smoke from the cooking in the village was wafting up, the children froliced constantly, and the dried radish and meat were hanging in front of the house, not at all like there were bandits living next to them.
Seeing their group, the pregnant women at the entrance of the village came forward and learned that they were visiting relatives in Beimo Border Town from Jin Guolai, so they warmly greeted them to enter the village.
"We are still a long way from the border town, and we still have to take a five-hour mountain road. There are wild animals in the mountains, and it's very unsafe at night. If you don't mind, you can come to our village to rest for a night, and then get up early tomorrow and go on your way."
Are there only beasts in the mountains
Zelan and Sedum looked at each other and nodded to accept their invitation.
The women who were busy in the fields before also washed their hands one after another. The leading woman called herself Aunt Liu and was the wife of the village chief. The two pregnant women just now were her daughters-in-law.
As soon as Aunt Liu saw Zelan, she fell in love with her, and shouted from daughter to daughter, "My house has many rooms, daughter, please choose one first."
Zelan didn't shirk, and let her pull him away.
The rest of the women also invited the remaining few.
"Don't disturb everyone, we have to get up early tomorrow morning to travel, just a few of our brothers and sisters can live together." Sedum and others followed Zelan on guard.
Although they were rejected, several women kept their enthusiasm and escorted them into the village.
Aunt Liu introduced as she walked, "Our village is called Xueyu Village. You came by coincidence. There is a happy event in our village tonight."
Before the words were finished, the children playing in the village also rushed forward to surround everyone.
Seven or eight children who were only three or four years old innocently called out to them as sisters and brothers, making the wood happy.
"We haven't had guests in our village for a long time. The children's father and brother are out hunting all the year round, and we have to do farm work again. No one can play with them, but they have been suffocated." Aunt Liu lovingly touched the closest to her. the head of a child, said to several people.
Mutou is the youngest, and has an honest and naive look. He is most popular with children. He was grabbed by the corner of his clothes and asked if he could play together.
It was rare for someone to call his brother, and Mu Tou was so happy that he secretly glanced at Ning Hongzhao. Seeing that the young master didn't nod his head, he could only touch the heads of the children, and he didn't dare to really play with them.
Finding that the wood could not be pulled away, two children moved their target to Leng Mingyu, stepped forward to hug Leng Mingyu, and asked him if they could play together.
But Leng Mingyu only held the sword and stood icyly, no matter how wronged or pleading the children were, he would not be moved.
Seeing that the two of them were about to cry, Mu Tou quickly took out the fruit he picked on the road and distributed it to everyone. Only then did he coax them, which made the children like him even more, holding him and refusing to let go.
When other women in the village heard the movement, they also came out of their courtyards. Seeing Zelan and the others, they were all excited and enthusiastic to invite them to be guests at home.
This peaceful scene was interrupted by Sedum ruthlessly: "Aunt Liu, it's getting late, our brothers and sisters are a little tired from all the way, please take us to the resting place first."
"Oh, look at my memory, the children should stop making trouble. A few brothers and sisters need to rest first." Aunt Liu greeted everyone to pull the children away, and led Ze Lan and the others to the yard with her two daughters-in-law. The guest room, let them rest for a while, and call them out for dinner later.
Closing the door, footsteps leave.
Zelan told everyone: "Don't eat what they prepared."
Leng Mingyu nodded obediently, what my sister said was right, he just did as he did.
Mu Tou also nodded obediently. After all, he wanted to listen to the son, and the son wanted to listen to the Emperor Jingtian, and the Emperor Jingtian listened to the little princess Zelan, so he must listen to the little princess Zelan. But why can't you eat it? He really wanted to know, but he didn't dare to ask.
