Chapter 3: The village chief, the big thing is bad
Village Chief Guo is very efficient and will soon find a house for Tang Ye.
The earthen room is not big, but it is better to be clean and the tiles are neatly laid.
"Master Tang, what do you think of here? It's the house that my family uses to store miscellaneous items. It's a bit simpler..."
Tang Ye looked at it and was very satisfied: "What are the details of those who escape? Just have tiles to cover your head."
Village Chief Guo sighed: "This world is really not easy. Especially since May, those who have escaped from the north have been struggling to escape from the desert and fall from the north. At the beginning, the villagers saw that the refugees were pitiful and would give them some porridge, water and rice. However, as more and more people were unable to withstand it, they had to seal the village and not let outsiders come in."
Tang Ye understands this situation, and there is always a limit to helping people. So many refugees can't help.
Village Chief Guo continued: "These people have no food and have nowhere to go, so they can only go to the corners of the mountains. At night, the mountains are cold, hunger and cold, and those who can't stand it can only die. I looked pitiful and let the villagers encounter the wilderness of corpses, so I helped to restrain themselves and find a place to bury them. It was considered to be buried in peace. But many of the corpses were bitten by wild animals and eaten, which was very miserable..."
Hearing this, Tang Ye suddenly understood the bizarreness of last night. Those ghosts were most likely refugees.
It is said that after a person dies, his soul has not dissipated, and he will pass through Yinshan and escape into the deep mountains and forests.
He asked, "Village Chief, what's going on with the Qingyang Mountain bandit?"
Village Chief Guo replied: "It is a group of bandits who occupy the mountain and become king. There are more than a dozen horses, which are quite fierce. The villages in the area over there are all suffering, and their food and money are looted. Some young girls are also robbed up the mountain. Oh, it's a sin."
He sighed: "Fortunately, my Guojia Village is farther away, so I was able to save it. But there was a rumor that the bandits would come here after robbing the surroundings. So the villagers had seen Master Tang face to face and suspected that it was a spy sent by the bandits, and they had a misunderstanding."
"I see."
Tang Ye asked again: "The village chief, here is surrounded by mountains and rivers, so there should be hunters."
Village Chief Guo said: "Yes, there are mountains and forests behind them, including wild boars, bears, and tigers and leopards. However, the big wild beasts are fierce and cannot be captured by hunters. If they meet, they can only escape."
Ordinary hunters do not have very good equipment, and rely on homemade bows and arrows, it is difficult to fight against beasts.
Tang Ye nodded and thought secretly: With his appetite, he was not happy without meat, and it was difficult to bear the rice, porridge and water. If you really want to eat with your stomach, Guojiazhuang might be bankrupt and cannot afford it. So if you have the chance, you will go up the mountain to hunt.
Do it yourself and have enough food and clothing.
After another conversation, the village chief said goodbye and left. When he got outside, he was surrounded by several villagers. Someone asked in a low voice: "Guardian, why are you taking in an outsider? You are so young, you don't look like a boxer."
Village Chief Guo glared: "You don't see him as capable as he can fight?"
"I can fight, so it's dangerous to keep him in the village. I also booked him three meals a day, thanks."
"What do you know?"
Village Chief Guo sneered: "He is a powerful figure and is supporting him in the village. If one day the bandits from Qingyang Mountain come to us, we will not be afraid."
Hearing this, everyone suddenly said "Oh" and suddenly realized.
Someone asked, "Village Chief, then did you tell him? He is willing to help?"
Village Chief Guo had a confident expression: "How can this kind of thing be anxious? It's too early to say it, it makes people disgusted, and I think we are asking for repaid with kindness. We must have to offer delicious food and drink for a few days. Moreover, I think he is young and promising, and he is arrogant and righteous. When a bandit invades, he will never stand by."
Everyone agreed and praised the village chief's wisdom.
Village Chief Guo ordered: "Anyway, you all listen to me. Master Tang is a distinguished guest. You must treat him well and not offend him."
"yes."
The villagers had no objection. Recently, the one they were most worried about was the Qingyang Mountain bandits. I don’t know when the other party would kill the village. It was really irresistible to rely on the young and strong people in the village and the simple weapons.
But now it’s different to have Tang Ye in charge.
Those who can knock down more than a dozen young and strong people in a short while must be masters among the masters...
Tang Ye lived in Guojia Village. He was easy-going and had no airs. He got along with the villagers in less than a day. At the same time, he found out about this world.
Unfortunately, most villagers work from sunrise to rest from sunrise to sunrise. Few travelers go out far away, including the village chief, and not many have been studying and able to read and read.
The village chief is the most knowledgeable, but the farthest place he has been to in his life is Taiping County a hundred miles away.
The circulation of information is mostly heard and mixed. Among them, there are many strange things, which make people startled, as if they are listening to ghost stories.
Based on various aspects, Tang Ye roughly learned some of the situation:
The world is in chaos.
The army and the clans fought in chaos, competing for the Central Plains.
In the midst of chaos, life was devastated, and countless people became refugees. On the way to escape, there were countless casualties and injuries. Their bodies could not be buried with decent burials, and various mass graves were born in time.
Another charity village was established to accommodate the deceased who died in a foreign land, waiting for the relatives to claim it...
There are even strangers who master the method of driving corpses, hiking at night, and sending the dead back home...
All in all, this is not a normal world.
Tang Ye was very impressed. After having the first night of experience, he had already believed that the rumors were true.
The world of this place is actually not small, with Shencheng and Peiping. But Yanhuang will directly make him come here. It can be imagined that there should be clues to the event here. Even if there is not, it is within the scope of the event.
Just like the first world of Shencheng.
Speaking of Shencheng, Tang Ye wanted to find an opportunity to go back and take a look. But when he asked about the times, it was more than ten years ahead of the first world.
Both are not on the same timeline. Everything that happened in Shencheng in the past does not exist at all. It is the little mute who has not been born at this time.
Tang Ye secretly remembered the changes in the timeline. If there was a third world, it was likely that he would have come back to ancient times.
Guojia Village is under the jurisdiction of Taiping County, located in the southern border town, with a large river flowing.
Perhaps because of the remote geographical location, there was no war here and it was relatively stable.
To put it more, it is because the large influx of refugees caused a certain amount of unrest; even horse thieves and bandits appeared, gradually becoming less peaceful.
In the evening of the next day, with the attention of village chief Guo and several old men in the village, Tang Ye ate a large bucket of rice, five or six plates of vegetables and vegetables swept the clouds and ate them all.
Village Chief Guo's eyes were straightened and he complained: This is too edible, I can't afford it, I can't afford it...
I really want to give myself a big mouth, but yesterday I boasted that three meals a day are enough.
Tang Ye put down the bowls and chopsticks and said satisfied: "The dinner is good today, I can eat 70% or 80% full."
Village Chief Guo almost fell off the stool and continued like this. Before the bandits could come, Tang Ye would go bankrupt.
In today's world, food is not cheap.
Tang Ye looked at him and laughed: "Village Chief, I told you that I have eaten a lot. But don't worry, I will go up the mountain to hunt tomorrow morning."
Upon hearing this, Village Chief Guo breathed a little relieved.
There was a noise outside, and a man ran in panting: "Village Chief, something is wrong..."
