Another World Baixin

Chapter 53 Chapter 53

The two and a half-year-old children went straight into the deep mountains, in the quiet and dark dense forest, with the long flowing water clinging to Bai Xin, holding a stick in their hands for self-defense.Bai Xin took the time to glance at his green eyes to see if they were shining.

Chang Liushui didn't know what it meant, but pretended to be calm and said: "It seems that other wild animals have also been scared away by the snakes. There is nothing to see. Let's go back."

Bai Xin originally wanted to take advantage of the two of them to go in and search inside, but in a blink of an eye, thinking that Qin Shi might be worried all day, if he went back later, he guessed that Ah Shui would be punished again, so he said to Ah Shui: "Why don't you go back first?" , I’ll take you down the mountain, and then come in to pick mushrooms. I’m fine with Ah Jin’s protection.”

How could Ah Shui agree, "If you want to go, you must go together! You are here alone, and I will be worried."

With a firm expression, he ignored Bai Xin's suggestion at all.Bai Xin also simply said: "In this case, then you go in with me, the snakes can't drive those people away every day, as much as they can get now." As for how the Qin family got angry after returning, he could It's just to help Ah Shui to stand up, anyway, he has rough skin and thick flesh, so he just hopes that he won't be punished for copying books.

Having been here several times last year, Bai Xin still remembered where the red mushrooms were more concentrated, so he found the nearest one, and rushed over with Ah Shui. Ah Shui had no time to pay attention to whether there were any wild animals around.

When a piece of red and tender russula appeared in front of their eyes, both of them ignored the similarities and differences, and took out a small bamboo stick—made by Baixin, which was shaped like a gourd, with thin upper part and thicker lower part. Bend down, shovel the soil with one hand and gently pull out the red mushroom with the other, and put it into the bamboo pole.After a while, the stalks are full, and the red mushrooms inside are poured into the big basket.

The temperature in the arbor forest gradually rises, and light shines through.The rising and evaporating rain brought a feeling of stuffiness, but Bai Xin didn't feel it yet, Ah Shui was tired first.He straightened up and took a breath, and threw away the red mushrooms that were almost piled up in the bamboo basket. He was in a very happy mood, but when he was about to lower his back again, he sat down on the ground.

Bai Xin was moved when he heard the sound, "What's the matter?!" He hurried over, met Ah Shui's dazed and out-of-focus eyes, and suddenly smiled sullenly.He took the coir raincoat and spread it on the ground, helped Ah Shui to sit on it, and Bai Xin touched Ah Shui's head softly and said, "Take a break, otherwise how can I carry you back when you're tired?"

Ah Shui sat docilely without moving, Bai Xin brought him water and dry food, and he himself took a few bites before continuing to work.

After resting, Ah Shui regained his strength, and was surprised to notice that there was no other sound except him, Bai Xin and the shaking branches.Looking at Bai Xin's busy back, he thought of another question, and raised his voice and asked, "Ah Xin, come over and rest for a while too! Continue after eating!"

If you say you're tired, Bai Xin doesn't feel it, but it's true that your stomach is empty. What you just ate didn't help at all, and instead made you hungrier.When he retreated, Ah Shui gave him an empty seat to serve him with water and food, and suddenly found that he didn't sweat a single drop from his forehead, and he didn't feel tired between his brows, any more than his own hair and back were all sweaty.Ah Shui asked him unconvinced: "Why haven't you sweated for so long?"

Bai Xin replied proudly: "Obviously, my body is much better than yours!"

Ah Shui knew this well, but she didn't want to admit that her physique was not as good as that of a human being. Instead, she said, "Is it because you sneak up and do some weird moves in the yard every morning?"

Bai Xin was surprised and said, "When did you find out? But I was exercising and keeping fit."

Hearing this, Ah Shui's eyes lit up, and Bai Xin said happily, "From now on, you can practice with me."

Ah Shui happily kissed Bai Xin, stood up and said happily, "I'm fine now, let's continue working!" Without waiting for Bai Xin's reaction, he rushed towards the red mushroom in a hurry.

Bai Xin: "..."

The summer sun is very hot. Farmers usually go to the fields before dawn and return home in the morning when the sun is slanting overhead, and then go to the fields until the sun is slanting to the west. During the two or three hours in between, few people dare to go to the fields to work, because it is very easy to expose people to the sun. fainted.Only Bai Xin and Ah Shui picked the red mushrooms all over the ground. By the time they went to the field in the afternoon, they had already picked two large baskets of red mushrooms.Bai Xin planned to think of ways to decorate it more, but seeing that Ah Shui was struggling to carry the bamboo basket at this time, he only made two rattan baskets for himself.The mountain road back is so long, the burden cannot be too heavy, Ah Shui is not as strong as himself.

Bai Xin simply disrupted the traces on the ground to prevent anyone from coming to find out, and then accompanied Ah Shui down the mountain.Ah Shui was very happy, and felt that his steps were much lighter. Bai Xin would ask him from time to time if he was tired or not.

It is easy to go up, but difficult to go down.The two walked into the village so clearly, something must happen.Ah Shui knew a lot more than Bai Xin, so he led him around a long way before he reached the backyard of Lin's house and knocked on the back door.

Mrs. Qin waited restlessly in the house for a whole day.Lin Daxian heard the commotion behind, and hurriedly said to her: "I'm afraid they are back! I'll go and see!"

A small door at the back of the hall leads to the back yard, where the carriages are parked.Bai Xin's voice came from outside the courtyard: "Uncle Ah! It's me!"

Lin Da opened the door, and sure enough, he saw two little guys who had been missing for a day. Qin Shi followed closely behind him. Seeing Chang Liushui, thousands of words turned into a sigh: "It's good to come back..."

Ah Shui was very sad, which made Bai Xin feel very sorry. He unloaded the things when he entered the door, and said with a smile: "Look, Ah Shui and I have an unexpected harvest!"

Lin Da and Qin Shi were shocked at the same time.Before the two of them could ask a question, Bai Xin said first: "Don't worry! Listen to me first, there is no danger at all!"

Close the back door and put away the red mushrooms.Several people turned to the inner hall, and Bai Xin repeated what he had said to Ah Shui.To put it simply, it is a story of the Little Golden Snake Repaying Gratitude.He made it clear that Lin Xun knew about this, which bluffed both Qin and Lin Da.The two also inspected Bai Xin's wound. Lin Da inspected it carefully and nodded: "It was indeed bitten by a snake."

Strange things have always been just legends, but once strange things happen around them and they are linked to this aspect, everyone will believe it, at least half-believe it, otherwise how could Bai Xin's theory of restraining relatives scare the Bai family.Qin's meeting was also persuaded by Bai Xin, and people like Lin Xun didn't respond when they found out, which made her feel relieved.

In contrast, Lin Da's thinking is simple and rude, no matter whether the snake repays his kindness is true or not, he will follow Bai Xin honestly from now on.

After finishing the two adults, Bai Xin and Ah Shui started to clean up the red mushrooms with great interest.Bai Xin heard Qin whisper to Lin Da: "Ah Xin is only ten years old and this happened to him, isn't Master Lin worried?"

Lin Da wrinkled his face, and said helplessly: "My master told me to listen to Ah Xin's words. Everything is up to him, and I just need to protect him." Then he comforted Qin and said, "My master is also in his teens. He intends to go to the barracks with the old man to hone his skills, seeing Ah Xin like this, he is probably as precocious as the old man."

Qin was speechless, and only hoped that the children would have less suffering.

Relying on A Jin's great power, Bai Xin and the others reaped a lot.But the villagers in the next few villages were frowning.No matter how they drove away the people from East and West Villages, a mountain full of snakes emerged.Fortunately, no one was sacrificed. None of the few who were bitten were poisoned.

The villagers of the three villages gathered to discuss what to do next.Now most of these people moved from Gutang Town together, and there are very few aborigines.For today's collection, they specially called the fellows from Meicun - Meishan was affected by the earthquake and the forest was destroyed. This year's red mushroom production is very scarce, so many people are willing to come here.However, after traveling for a long time, they got such a result, and many people even paid for their medical expenses!

Some people have bad thoughts.Several people in charge murmured together, and then said to the aborigines: "In order for you to pick red mushrooms smoothly, so many of us came to help, and we were injured in the end, so you should pay for the medical expenses!"

The aborigines first looked at each other in blank dismay, and then looked at the injured, all of them changed their expressions.

Shi Shi, who had met Bai Xin once, jumped out and sprayed: "Who told you to rush forward to grab the benefits! If you didn't get the benefits, and you were timid, you would hurt your feet if you ran all the way. Who is to blame? Blame yourselves!"

"What a brave boy!" Someone in the original Gutang Town team yelled: "If you hadn't begged us to come, we would not be willing to come here! This injury is for you! You owe us, of course you have to pay !"

Shitou was so angry that he wanted to beat him, but Shifu who was next to him quickly dragged him back, and the people in Gutang Town on the other side were quite disappointed.Shi's father's name is Shi Shanfeng, and there are few people on their side at the moment, but they can't beat the group on the opposite side.Shi Shanfeng asked: "How to calculate, how much?"

Those in charge looked at each other and smiled, and one of them, Tang Liu, said: "Looking at how poor you are, you don't seem to be able to afford the money. In this way, each of the [-] brothers with minor injuries will pay one or two; Five taels per person, not much. If you have no money, you can take the land as a mortgage~”

It was 55 taels of silver at the first opening!There are no more than fifty aboriginal households in the three villages, and each household has at least one tael of silver!

Shi Shanfeng said: "Now there are four to five hundred households in our three villages. It can be considered if each household pays one or two hundred dollars."

Tang Liu sneered and said, "Who is in the same village as you? Aren't there only forty or fifty households left in your three villages? Where did you get four or five hundred households. Hurry up and pay the money and finish the job, don't delay our brother to see the wound and take medicine."

When he said this, the people from the original Gutang town who had already moved here responded one after another—as long as it’s none of their own business, let others die!It seemed that the aborigines wished they could kill these people.However, they were few after all, how could forty people overwhelm the one or two hundred people from Plum Village and the four or five hundred newcomers who were onlookers and booing?The so-called exchange of land for money, and the people from Plum Village don’t live here, so it didn’t end up in the hands of their fellow villagers!It is vicious to persecute the aborigines for such a small profit!

After letting the aborigines go home to get the money, several people who went up the mountain to inquire about the situation came back and reported to Tang Liu and others: "From below, the snakes on the mountain have retreated, and there has been no movement for a long time. Some wild animals who were scared away at that time Things have returned to their original places.”

"Boss, what do you think?" Tang Liu asked a person beside him.Among this group of people, the people in charge are several sworn brothers, and Tang Liu is ranked sixth.The boss, surnamed Yan, looked in the direction of Shoushan and thought for a while, and then said: "Take a few more brothers to go up and explore. If it is safe, we will go up at dawn tomorrow morning! However, don't let them go there. The picking time has been shortened, and the number of people should be reduced appropriately."

When Shi Shanfeng and his son Shitou returned home, Shitou became more and more angry as he thought about it, and couldn't help saying to his father: "They are simply bandits! Let's back off this time, I'm afraid that in the future—" He opened his mouth wide and stared at Father Shi in a daze. He asked comprehensibly, "Father! What are you doing?"

Shi Shanfeng turned his hand and hammered him on the head, cursing: "You are blind and can't see?! You are so stupid, your father and I are packing up the house and preparing to move!"

Stone rubbed his head, "Why do you want to move? Aren't we here to withdraw money?"

"In the past, you were so clever, why are you so stupid today?" Shi Shanfeng glared at him, and kept packing valuables in his hands, because he replied: "Old Wu next door, you also know that his wife was injured by the earthquake last year. It’s not going well so far, how can there be any extra money to send to those strong people! I decided to take out the acre of wasteland from our house and pay him for the money. After that, we will move to Dongxi Village next door.”

Stone quit, "Let's just leave like this?!"
