Chapter 148 Natural and man-made disasters
After hearing this, the old man's expression softened and his tone softened slightly: "In that case, you should leave here quickly."
Several people still stood still, waiting for Ye Tantai's decision.
"Can I ask why you are driving us away in such a hurry?" Ye Tantai asked politely.
The old grandfather was helpless. Most of the villagers behind him were elderly, but the group of people in front of him looked like they were no ordinary people.
"Our village just encountered a rockfall a few days ago. The gravel has been rolling down for several days. I don't know when the next one will come. If you don't want to be involved, you should leave quickly."
Although the old man's tone was cold, Su Qingcheng could tell that he still had no ill intentions toward them.
The reason why he was so anxious to drive them away was, on the one hand, he was really worried that as he just said, outsiders entering would anger the mountain god and bring disaster to the village.
On the other hand, he was also concerned that they would be implicated in the suffering the village was suffering.
"We'll leave in a moment. Grandpa, can you tell us what happened to you? Maybe we can help you."
The old man sneered and snorted coldly: "If you can't help us, you city dwellers can't bear any hardship."
The young man next to the old man who was looking around curiously looked at Su Qingcheng up and down, and then his eyes lit up.
Quietly whispering in the old man's ear: "Village chief, look at the clothes and fabrics they are wearing. One piece of clothing can replace one of our houses. Maybe it can really help us."
The village chief frowned. He had never left the village in his life, so naturally he couldn't tell the identities of the people.
"Seriously, did you look carefully?"
The young man nodded hastily, with excitement in his tone: "It's absolutely true. Although I grew up in the village, I have been to Qingshui City many times. The rich people there wear this kind of material. We can use their valuables to Grab everything, and then that beauty over there..."
The young man's eyes showed desire. He was an orphan in the village. He grew up eating food from hundreds of families. He always longed for the world outside the village. From time to time he would go to Qingshui City to pretend to be a beggar.
The moment he saw Su Qingcheng, he thought he had seen a fairy.
He originally thought that the beautiful girl Xiulian from Qingshui City was the most beautiful in the world, but compared with the beauty in front of him, she was simply in the sky and on earth.
On the opposite side, including the beauty, there were only five people, but there were more than a dozen people in the village.
The old man was so angry that he hit him on the head with a cane: "You actually have such a dirty idea in your mind! Did you learn these dirty tricks when you ran to Qingshui City?"
The young man changed from running to begging for mercy: "Village Chief, Village Chief, please spare my life, I just said it casually."
Su Qingcheng had excellent ears, and she vaguely heard the conversation between the two.
Seeing as how this village is in urgent need of money right now.
She smiled softly, seized the opportunity and said, "I must be the village chief here. We can really help you."
"What are you helping us with? Why are you helping us?"
Su Qingcheng pulled Gu Huoyan to the side: "He is the imperial doctor Gu in the palace and someone close to the Holy One. You see, he can save the injured villagers. I have a way to save the damaged houses within three days. It’s restored to its original shape, and it’s also resistant to falling rocks.”
The village chief looked at Gu Huoyan, who was fair and fair, with some surprise. He squinted his eyes and looked at him: "Is he an imperial doctor?"
Gu Huoyan took out his imperial doctor's token from his pocket and handed it to the village chief: "Yes, look at this token."
The village chief was illiterate and called the young man just now.
The young man bit and touched the token: "It's true."
The village chief returned the token to him and bowed deeply to several people: "I am an old man who cannot see the mountains. Please save us, doctor!"
"You tell us first what happened here, and I will help you." Gu Huoyan said calmly.
The village chief sighed and shook his head, and said solemnly: "Come with me."
A group of people followed the village chief to an old house.
"This is the house of our village chief. It is the only house in the village that has not been knocked down by falling rocks." The young man introduced it to them enthusiastically.
Su Qingcheng turned a blind eye and passed him directly. Ye Tantai followed closely behind. When passing by the young man, his whole body was filled with coldness.
After the village chief sat down, he said with some embarrassment: "In the past, I would have boiled a pot of tea for you. Now, after the rockfalls experienced here, there is no water left."
"It's okay, you can talk first." Su Qingcheng said gently.
"The thing is like this. A few days ago, a woman in red clothes came to us to ask about things on Qingshan. Our village has always been guarding the southernmost part of Qingshan, relying on the mountains to feed on the mountains and the streams flowing down from the mountains. It provides drinking water for our entire village, and some game on the mountain can also be used for our consumption.”
"Therefore, we have always believed that there is a mountain god on the mountain. The girl in red said she wanted to go up the mountain from behind us, but there is a taboo in our village that does not allow people outside the village to go up the mountain from the south, so as not to disturb the tranquility of the mountain god. But The woman in red said she could give us some money." At this point, the old man became even more angry and hit the young man next to him with a stick.
"It was because he was greedy for money that he told the woman in red clothes the way to the mountain without permission. This made the mountain god angry."
"Not long after the girl in red went up the mountain, there was heavy rain on the mountain, and the mud and rocks washed down. Our mountain temple was also washed down, and the falling stones hit the village. All our houses fell down, and this place was originally Most of them are elderly. When will the environment be restored to its original state..."
As he spoke, the village chief lowered his head and wiped away tears.
Now everyone also understood the whole story. The woman in bright red clothes should be Huo Mei.
She came to investigate things around Qingshan on Ye Tantai's order and found a small village here. So I came over to inquire.
I found that this village can lead to the inside of Qingshan, and there are very few mechanisms on the road, which is completely different from entering from the north.
So, she tried her best to get in from the village.
I just didn't expect that rocks would fall on the mountain.
That's why the village chief hates strangers like them so much.
Especially because they went there with the purpose of going up the mountain. He felt that this was blasphemy to the mountain god, so the mountain god punished them.
But Su Qingcheng didn't think so.
She looked out from the village chief's house and saw that the houses that had been broken by stones collapsed in too the same direction.
This shows that the directions of these falling stones are too consistent.
If it is a normal natural disaster, those mudslides usually come from all directions.
The terrain of the village she observed was surrounded by mountains. The possibility of a mudslide on only one side is very small.
