Chapter 137 Common Goal
The breeze blows on my face, and peach blossoms bloom overnight.
When the two people hugging each other woke up from their dreams, it was noon the next day.
Lu Xiaobai and Luo Chen looked at each other and seemed to be much less embarrassed than the previous day. The paradise environment also made people temporarily forget their original social relationships and there was no pressure brought by status.
The two walked out of the cabin in the backyard and saw Shi Jing and his wife preparing lunch. Mu Rong was washing vegetables in the basin, and Shi Jing was cooking in front of the iron pot. They saw that her husband was sweating, and his wife wiped his forehead in tacit agreement. , the fragrant smell wafted from the backyard, and it seemed that there was also the smell of fireworks.
When Luo Chen and Xiao Bai saw the scene of men farming and women weaving, they had strange fantasies in their minds. If they had not left and stayed in the mountains, they would have lived a secluded life like this, without being disturbed. , don’t care about your past identity, but live with a new identity.
This fantasy came out of nowhere, and the two quickly shook their heads, not daring to think about it.
Shi Jing saw the two people walking out of the wooden house and said with a smile: "You two young lovers in the city, why do you get up at noon every day? You city people don't have to get up early."
"It made you laugh."
Luo Chen responded with a smile, and said "young lovers in the city", which made Lu Xiaobai blush slightly.
Lunch was ready, and the two men and women sat together, and their relationship became more familiar than before. Shi Jing asked them about what the big city was like, and Luo Chen asked him, since he was driven out of the village, why didn't he go to the town? If you go to the city or live in the city, you should stay here and live in seclusion.
When Shi Jing heard this, he put down his chopsticks and said, "I have a heartfelt request that I have always wanted to tell you, but I didn't know how to say it."
Luo Chen and Lu Xiaobai also put down their chopsticks and said politely: "You are our savior, there is nothing you can't say."
"I want to take back Gumu Village."
"So that's it..."
The reason why Shi Jing lives in seclusion in the mountains is that he inherited his father's last wish and wanted to return to Gumu Village. His father and the current village chief Xiao Wu have two standard governance attitudes.
My father was a moderate who always kept in touch with the outside world and did business peacefully. Unfortunately, he encountered evil people with evil intentions and peeked at the treasures of Gumu Village. The tragedy happened fifteen years ago.
This led to the radical Xiao Wu's success in gaining everyone's support, and it became what it is today. Gumu Village no longer welcomes outsiders, and will even kill strangers who inquire about it.
"His methods are too cruel and will only put the village into greater danger."
"You want me to help?"
"Well, after seeing your skills yesterday, I think you are both experts and can help me, but there will be some risks."
Luo Chen agreed without even thinking, "I have no reason to refuse this life-saving grace. I will help you."
"Really? That's great."
Lu Xiaobai quietly pushed Luo Chen from the side, and Luo Chen understood, "However, I have a small request."
"you say."
"Is there any legend about the rebirth technique in Gumu Village?"
Shi Jing was stunned for a moment. It turned out that Luo Chen came to the village to inquire about this matter.
Luo Chen immediately explained: "I don't want to get this set of techniques, I just want to know if this thing really exists."
"Actually... I'm not sure. Gumu Village does have legends about immortality spells. But I left the village with my father when I was a child. I don't know about this. However, my father said that the secrets and history of the village are all recorded. It is in a village journal, and only each generation of village chiefs can read it, and the secret must be protected."
"If you go back and become the village chief, you can see it?"
"right."
They hit it off immediately and the two had a common goal.
After lunch, Shi Jing said that he wanted to observe Luo Chen and the two of them to see if there was any remaining centipede poison. In fact, the poison had been removed, and Shi Jing began to prepare to return to Gumu Village.
He said that the matter was not difficult to solve. What his father did was not wrong in the first place. No one hated him. It was just that Xiao Wu caught everyone's emotions and took the opportunity to take away the position of village chief.
Now fifteen years have passed, and the village is stable, but killing so many outsiders has also put many people under psychological pressure. Isn't it desecrating the treasured land left by our ancestors by throwing people who have nothing to do with it into the poisonous pool? ?
Therefore, Shi Jing, who lives in seclusion in the mountains, secretly has contact with the villagers. Knowing the changes in the village, some people hope that Shi Jing will go back and squeeze out Xiao Wu.
In these years of isolation, only a few familiar medicinal merchants did business. They found that there were no competitors, so they began to lower prices, causing the village's income to decrease year by year.
With less money, everyone is naturally more dissatisfied.
Shi Jing felt that the right time, place and people were in place, and now was the opportunity to take action. He wanted to go back and defeat Xiao Wu, because it was Xiao Wu who defeated his father back then.
The Insect Master Village has poisonous ponds and ancestral precepts left by ancestors. Each generation of village chief must be the most powerful insect master in the village in order to protect the poisonous pond.
"Are you confident?"
"Of course, Xiaowu's centipede must be more powerful than my scorpion? It's just that there are some people in the village who are Xiaowu's subordinates. I can't handle it alone, and I don't have the heart to attack them, so I need the help of you two. "
Shi Jing didn't say the last part of the sentence. He was also prepared to be defeated. He asked Luo Chen and Lu Xiaobai for help, just thinking that after losing, the two of them could protect him from being killed by Xiao Wu's ruthless tactics.
With Qingshan here, he can endure it for a few more years and find an opportunity to regain the position of village chief.
"When I go back, I will definitely make everyone live a good life."
"You know how to do business?"
Shi Jing smiled, "What do you think of Jin Yangye?"
Luo Chen and Lu Xiaobai were stunned together, too embarrassed to answer. Should they tell Xiao Wu that this thing was so powerful that they both woke up at noon for two days in a row.
"Are you going to sell this?"
"Yes, my father said that this thing is a treasure that no one has discovered in our Dieyun Mountain. People in the city will definitely like it."
"Your father is quite discerning..."
The sun has faded and the sky is getting dark.
Luo Chen and Luo Chen put on the spare clothes in their bags in the cabin. Lu Xiaobai turned back into a petite and cute JK girl. Luo Chen subconsciously took a few more glances, and Xiaobai asked naughtily: "Are you pretty?" "
"pretty."
Shi Jing knocked on their door and said, "Brother, it's time to go. People in the village have quietly contacted me."
At night, the ancient wooden village hidden in the mountains is more like a quiet paradise. The lights of several families light up in the mountains, allowing people in the distance to faintly see the direction.
On the mountain road, several figures stopped and looked into the distance.
The leading man sneered, "Hei Die, I'm going to your hometown soon, don't you have anything to say?"
"I didn't grow up in Gumu Village, so I don't have any psychological burden. Boss, just go ahead and do it."
