The road from Africa to Europe

Chapter 704 Huan Lang Wants to Grow Up

If you want to prevent the tomb robbers from disturbing the peace of the ancestors, you must first make the tombs safer, and prevent those tomb robbers from digging holes to get in.

In this regard, the tomb of a certain emperor is very powerful. Even if the attached sacrificial pit has been excavated, no one has yet entered the emperor's main tomb.

It is said that the big reason is that there is a large amount of heavy metal mercury in the mausoleum of the first emperor, which may lead to mercury poisoning if it is entered.

Later generations once checked the soil of the mausoleum, and it was true that the mercury exceeded the standard, and there are related records in the history books: the stars were specially imitated in the mausoleum, and there were rivers, lakes and seas, and mercury flowed in the rivers, lakes and seas.

This situation protected the tomb of the first emperor, and even later generations did not intend to enter the tomb for archaeology, because the situation in the tomb has been isolated from the air for many years, and many things are well preserved, but once opened, many things will be accelerated Oxidation.

Of course, like the first emperor, it is impossible for ordinary people to build the mausoleum into a place where tomb robbers cannot enter. As an ordinary person, in order not to attract the patronage of tomb robbers, it is better not to bring gold, silver and jewelry with him.

In addition to not letting priceless gold, silver and jewelry be buried as funeral objects, there is one more thing to pay attention to.Ling Xiao knew that the ancients liked to bury some utensils they used with them before they died.

Then the biggest hidden danger besides jewelry comes, not only jewelry will make people miss, but also some other things are also very popular among tomb robbers.

For example, after a famous copybook was buried with a certain emperor, people thought about digging the grave. In fact, the emperor's tomb was indeed robbed.

It can be seen that things that are too good to be buried with are not safe. Cao Mengde, who used tomb robbery to pay for the army, was afraid that his tomb after death would also be robbed before his death, so he created several tombs.

The corners of Ling Xiao's mouth twitched when he heard the news, cooperating with Cao Dada to have someone steal someone else's tomb, and he was afraid of being robbed before he died.For this reason, Ling Xiao specially reminded Huan Lang, telling him that some things should not be buried with him, and that treating his relatives well before his death is better than anything else.

Huan Lang was still young when he bid farewell to his biological parents, so he didn't understand the so-called parting between life and death.Although I was sad because I could no longer see my parents, but because of my young age, I quickly forgot my parents, and transferred more love to my grandfather and Ling Xiao.

It wasn't until Master Liu passed away that he had a deep feeling for the departure of his relatives. He was a little afraid that his sister would leave like this one day, and he was really, really scared.

During that time, he always liked to follow his sister, forcibly turning himself into her little tail, and followed her everywhere, for fear that her sister would disappear in the blink of an eye.

After Ling Xiao knew about it, he took Huanlang out one night, pointed to the stars in the sky and told him: "Huanlang, don't care about life and death, even if death prevents your loved ones from being with you, but because they all I love you, so I will become a star in the sky to watch you and show you the way in the dark."

At this moment, Huan Lang is not too old, and he was a little confused when he heard Ling Xiao's words, half understanding, but his sister's voice was very gentle, which made him unknowingly write down what his sister said. talk.

He raised his head and looked at the twinkling stars in the sky, feeling very cordial, twinkling, it must be his relatives blinking.

Ling Xiao looked at Huan Lang, he would grow up day by day.It can be seen that his temper belongs to the kind of relatively young child, and his temper is also relatively sensitive. He is still a bit spoiled, which is not good.

She tried hard to cultivate his independence. Fortunately, he had many good friends by his side. The child gradually had the idea of ​​spreading his wings and flying, and was just waiting for a suitable opportunity.

Now is the opportunity to cultivate Huan Lang's ability. This time she spent most of the day to see Yang Juan, and it was getting dark when she returned to Zhuangzi.

"Sister!" Huan Lang had a great time playing with his friends, but he felt that he would still pay attention to whether his sister came back at night. Now when he saw Ling Xiao coming back, he jumped up and down, he was anxious to see his sister .

He lived very happily in front of his sister, living like an ordinary child, trying to imitate his every move when he was outside.

In his heart, his elder sister's status is very detached. In many cases, he is both father and mother, and she gives him the safest guarantee. Even when his grandfather is still alive, his elder sister is responsible for taking care of him.

Ling Xiao watched him stop, raised his hands and said, "Huan Lang, how are you doing today? You are also a big boy, and you will have to take on more burdens in the future."

While talking, she lightly stroked Huanlang's soft hair. The two buns proved that he was still young, so the little man Huanlang always wanted to start to tie his hair early.

Because Ling Xiao accepted the task of escorting the food, he wanted to find someone to take charge of the affairs of the Zhuangzi, but basically no one with some skills in the Zhuangzi was in the Zhuangzi.

They all went to serve in the military, and most of the rest were honest people who didn't know what to do when they encountered problems. They could only be obedient and not be generals.

On the contrary, Huan Lang has made great progress in the past three years, his temper has become much more open, and he has a little more sense of responsibility.Ling Xiao felt that he could be held responsible and let him grow up quickly.

The world is really chaotic now, and there is not much time for him to grow up a little bit, which is why she saw Huan Lang say those words, and hoped that he could really do it.

Huan Lang's eyes widened. He always felt that he was not young, but everyone still regarded him as a child, so he always wanted to prove that he was a big child.

After hearing Ling Xiao's words today, Huan Lang's face was very excited at first, and finally someone admitted that he had grown up, but he didn't know why he felt that there was something more in his sister's smile.

This discovery made him a little tangled in his mind, his little face frowned slightly, he didn't know what to do, and his sister's attitude towards him also changed a little.

He somewhat liked how close his sister was to him.But I also feel that I belong to an older child, so I shouldn't be rubbed on the head by my sister. This seems to be treating a child.

But if he himself said that he would never let his sister rub his head, he was afraid that her sister would be unhappy, so his expression was a bit torn.

Ling Xiao laughed when she saw this, and she went on to say: "I may go out for a period of time the day after tomorrow, and I need you to bring someone to be responsible for the safety of the village. This is a very important thing, can you do it? ?”

She decided to arrange some things near the Zhuangzi early tomorrow morning to make the Zhuangzi more hidden, and the puppet who came to teach Huanlang just happened to be in the Zhuangzi, and if something happened, he would go out directly.

In this way, the safety of Zhuangzi can be guaranteed to the greatest extent. You must know that most of the people in Zhuangzi are old, weak, sick and disabled, and their combat effectiveness is not very strong, and she has already told people in Zhuangzi to reduce going out.

Fortunately, these people are still very obedient, because the disobedient people have long since died in going out again and again, which made Ling Xiao feel a little comforted, otherwise he would still worry that they would be very tired if they understood the situation.

"Sister! You want to go out?" Huan Lang only noticed this when he was obedient, his little face suddenly collapsed, and he felt that his own sky was darkening, which made him a little scared.

"What? Huanlang! You have always said that you are an older child before, why are you acting like a child now?" Ling Xiao mocked with kindness.

Huan Lang was a little blushing when his sister said it, because he had been protesting against his sister asking him to comb his buttocks, thinking that he should tie his hair when he grows up.

But today my sister said that she would go out for a while, so wouldn't she want to see her?He was a little scared, but he was bloody as a boy, so he raised his head a little dissatisfied.

It's just that his eye circles are still a little red. He never thought that one day his sister would leave him. He thought that his sister would always follow him, so why would he have something to do?
Ling Xiao smiled and said to him: "Huanlang, what you need to know: people grow up day by day, when you grow up, you have to face all known and unknown problems, and there are always some things that need to be done .”

Huan Lang almost blurted out a sentence when he heard this: Sister, I was still a child, but in the end I bit my lower lip with my white teeth.
Because he knew very well that once sister made a decision, she would definitely do it, and his stop was completely useless, so he didn't plan to say anything. The only thing he could do was to protect Zhuangzi's people.

Ling Xiao took Huanlang around the Zhuangzi. Fortunately, the thoughtful people were promoted and made a fortune during their military service, so they asked their family members to leave the Zhuangzi, and most of the people left were women and children.

Therefore, it is naturally impossible for her to let the people in Zhuangzi focus on the offensive. No one is a fighter, so how to fight?Defense is still the main thing, and even Zhuangzi's entrance has been disguised in the future.

Zhuangzi also made some preparations around Zhuangzi, such as building walls around Zhuangzi. This era is the era of cold weapons, and walls can block some refugees and give everyone some security.

Most of the people in Zhuangzi are women, and there are some children. They are really not suitable for going to the battlefield, and they need some security. Fortunately, outside Zhuangzi is at the foot of the mountain, and if something happens, they can go up the mountain together to escape.

In addition, Ling Xiao also set up several emergency shelters on the mountain, that is, caves. With the caves, you can escape up the mountain and live in them temporarily when the enemy invades.

Of course, we should pay attention not to be discovered by others. These places have specially asked people to write down the places, and have also specially provided relevant training to keep everyone alive as much as possible.

Ling Xiao has never wanted the girls in Zhuangzi to be female soldiers, but he still taught some self-defense knowledge, and there are also girls who are not very interested in fighting, and often fish for fish.

Because they think that if they practice these skills, their bodies will become thicker, and the whole person will become less feminine, and it may lead to blackening when practicing, which makes some women stay away.

There are also people who are not very willing to learn how to fight at all, probably thinking that others will protect her, and Ling Xiao doesn't care much about their thoughts. Such people who are not willing to work hard can't say anything, but fortunately, they moved away one after another.

And there are still a group of women in other Zhuangzi who have experienced enough hardships who are willing to learn fighting skills. Ling Xiao didn't let them learn how to fight the enemy, but taught them how to protect themselves.

Because Ling Xiao knows that women are generally weaker in various physical aspects, so let them in order to kill the enemy to the maximum extent when danger comes, which is also a kind of protection for themselves.

Since there are those kind of people who are talented but unwilling to practice, there are naturally women who obviously don't have that talent but still work hard to train themselves. This kind of person is even more admirable.

After experiencing one world after another, Ling Xiao wanted to say: Why do you keep counting on others to save you?If the rescuer can't come, or if there is no one who can rescue them at all, they can only save themselves.

But she didn't say it in the end, because she knew that it was difficult for a person to change her mind. There is a good saying: It is easy to change the country, but it is difficult to change the nature, and I didn't expect some people to be enlightened.

Some of those women who worked hard have been with Ling Xiao's sister and brother, and some have left Ling Xiao for various reasons. It is only when they start their own lives that they realize how good they have learned in later years.

At that time, they were either married or not, but most of them had their own goals to fight for, and only then did they realize how good Ling Xiao taught them.

At the beginning, Ling Xiao taught them the skills to make a living, and in the later years proved that they did not learn in vain, it was the skills they could really use to make a living.

Even though they never had the chance to see Mrs. He again in the years to come, they would always think of the one she used to be at the last moment of their lives.

Although the voice and smile of Mrs. He's family had become blurred due to the age, they still remembered her kindness to them.

Although I remember that the He family girl is not very beautiful, it does not mean that she is not beautiful. Even though she is a girl, she has an indescribable chic.

It makes them feel that the men they meet are far inferior to her in terms of appearance and temperament. If they can meet people who are comparable to her, there are not many people.

Most of them lived to the new dynasty, and they raised many children. The children they educated were very popular and famous.

Those women who left Ling Xiao and went their separate ways basically never saw Ling Xiao again. Because of the inconvenient transportation, they couldn't see each other after they parted, and she never came back.

I heard that after she went to a place, there was no news gradually, and her younger brother Huanlang became a famous person, and he would appear once in a while, but the dragon did not see the beginning and the end.

The reason for this is that some people are very dissatisfied with the siblings and want to find trouble. The biggest dissatisfaction in those people's mouths is that the siblings are not willing to pull the clansman surnamed He at all.

The ancients paid more attention to the concept of the clan, but because Ling Xiao came from modern times, he didn't have much idea about the clan, especially the He family who bullied the weak and feared the strong, it's no wonder she had a good impression.

Naturally, He Huanlang was influenced by Ling Xiao, and had no affection for the He family. It was entirely because his father's surname was He that he took the surname He, and he didn't want to continue the He family at all.

It made some people feel uncomfortable, and wanted to teach the He family siblings a lesson. In their view, the clan is the most important thing, so they are completely incompatible with Ling Xiao.

Naturally, Ling Xiao would not let others blindly criticize him, and everyone knew that the parents of He Huanlang's family died early, and they wanted two children to set up a mourning hall when they were very young.

Not only did the people in the Pianbian clan not help in Xiaozhong, but they also brought guests to the mourning hall, and when they were blocked, they fought violently, almost killing people.

The two siblings lived with the grandfather. After the death of the grandfather, the elder sister pulled the younger brother up. It can be said that there is basically no relationship between the He family and the He family siblings.

It is said that the reason why the elder sisters of the He family did not get married was because of some relationship with the He family. As a result, the eldest father of the two siblings brought two children from the He family, which was tantamount to tearing apart the face.

The most outrageous thing is that the He family's family tree does not have the names of the He family's siblings, so naturally there is no clan relationship, and everyone will not say anything after the news comes out.

Although the current social rules are proud of the family, some families are very concerned about the genealogy, so that some people think that there must be something wrong with the He family siblings being abandoned by the family. Some people have other ideas about this point.

But soon someone reminded them, and everyone calculated accordingly, and found out that the siblings were just children when they were abandoned by the family, so what crime could happen?It felt impossible.

If the two of them really made mistakes, they would not be accepted by the Yang family. From this, it can be seen that it is not the siblings who owe the He family, but the He family owes the siblings. Afterwards, no one cared about the He family.
