her left eye is unusual

Chapter 1274
The old woman: "I don't know exactly when, I just remember hearing my grandfather tell me when I was very young, that in his grandfather's time, the land here could still produce a lot of grain, and there was still a lot of food on the mountain. Trees, birds and beasts, for some reason, became less and less, and gradually became barren..."

When Su Xin was chatting with the old woman here, the woman would tidy up the house and bring out a sewing basket, which was filled with the most torn linen. Fortunately, her patience and dexterity barely allowed the child to hide her shame.

The little girl stood beside her for a while, and then she carried a backpack about the same size as herself to collect firewood on the barren slope next to her, using any dead grass and leaves.

After all, what the old lady said just now is just a legend passed down by word of mouth, and I don’t know how many generations it has been passed down.

Chatting and chatting, almost the nearby farmers also surrounded.

The main reason is that Su Xin, an outsider, and just because he wanted to ask a little bit about these endless legends, he came up with so many good things, he was curious, and of course he was very jealous.

Seeing that everyone was very enthusiastic, Su Xin didn't want to dampen their enthusiasm, although the information she might get from them was similar.

So he said: "Everyone can tell me all the legends about the Thousand Mountains and all the relevant stories that you know. Of course, it happened here...As long as you think it is more bizarre, I will give corresponding rewards .”

Everyone heard that there is still food to get in the field of farming, which is simply a good thing that falls from the sky.

Ling'er looked at Su Xin and knew that this guy was just looking for an excuse.

Like a crazy raider before, she stuffed all kinds of food into the gourd space... Although she knew that she also had the habit of hiding food like mice, she didn't expect the other party to take them all out.

Su Xin knew that compared with the poor life here, this little thing she took out was nothing but a drop in the bucket, and it could only solve the urgent need.

But just like what the old woman said just now, if the environment continues to be bad, they have only two options, either to leave their homes, or to starve to death here.

In the later conversation, Su Xin also knew that the old woman was not patriarchal in the true sense.Of course, at that moment, she did intend to favor her grandson. The fundamental reason is that the man here is the main labor force of the family, and her son and wife only have this son. In other words, she still counts on her grandson to grow up to support the whole family. If the body is broken now, then... As for the granddaughter, although she has been treated harshly, she can still live in such an environment until now. Apart from being thin, there is no scar or disability on her body...

In general, life is not easy, as for the rest, don't expect too much.

Su Xin is just an outsider, who has never lived the lives of others, and cannot bear the lives of so many people, so she is not qualified to comment.

The girl she just entered the yard and said before is a person with blessings, which can be regarded as a kind of advice. If they can listen to it, it means that they really have "blessings"; In vain.

More and more people gathered in the yard, and it was even more lively than a meeting in Murakami.

Chatting and chatting until the evening, no matter what these people said, Su Xin temporarily stored it in the sea of ​​consciousness.

Su Xin thought about the huge temple, or grotto, that he saw two days ago, so he asked, "Who of you knew that there was a huge grotto over there, full of murals of various characters?"

In the originally lively and noisy courtyard, upon hearing Su Xin's words, it suddenly became quiet.

At this time, an old man said mysteriously: "Uh...you really saw that...the devil's lair?"

The cave?

Su Xin repeated.

The people around couldn't help but said: "Yes, I heard that anyone who saw the devil's lair would end badly..."

If the people next to him hurriedly restrained that person, they were short-handed after all. They just took so many good things from him just now, and now they say that he "doesn't end well", isn't he cursing him?

The old man took the words, "Girl, we country people speak more straightforwardly, so don't take it to heart. That place... is indeed very evil..."

Su Xin followed the words of the other party, following the words of the other party, and asked, "Then tell me, what is wrong with that place? Do you know when it was built?"

Everyone looked at each other, folded their hands, and shook their heads, "I don't know about this, it seems... it's always been here."

The old man: "...Actually, the one who knows our Qianshan Village best is Uncle Qiang, an old scholar who used to tell stories to the children in the village. Later, when he got older, his son took him to live in the town. Come back less."

This Qianshan Village used to be a very large village, and it was also the village closest to the border.

After asking the direction, Su Xin said goodbye and left.

At this time, everyone was holding the "remuneration" given by Suxin in their hands, smiling all over their faces, and they were very enthusiastic, saying what stories she would like to hear in the future, as long as they knew, they would know everything.

When we left, the sun was setting on Qianfeng, and layers of dark clouds rose up from the undulating peaks like waves, wrapping around, the peaks were like real surging water waves, like a dream.

Leading the horse from the small path at the head of the courtyard, I met the head of the family who had returned head-on, and walked tremblingly on his shoulders. The little girl sitting in the front frame was just going out to pick up firewood.

In the back, the back basket and the bamboo basket are put together, and there are only half of the basket of unknown leaves, grass roots and a little dead grass.

With a happy smile on her face, the little girl was saying, "...Father, what I said is true. I am full today. Mother has filled me with a lot of rice porridge."

The man just laughed, "Father was lucky today, and found two voles in the mountain over there. Later, I will get them out and stew them in wild vegetable soup..."

"Daddy is the best..."

The two talked and laughed all the way. If they hadn't seen their yellow and thin faces with their own eyes, they would never have imagined that their lives had reached the verge of life and death.

When they got very close, they noticed Su Xin.

Stunned for a moment, the girl turned her head to look at Su Xin, her eyes were shining brightly, like a jewel that had been dusted off.

Su Xin hurriedly led the horse aside and let the two of them pass.

When the last ray of the setting sun was shrinking into the Qianshan peak, Su Xin came to the town and found the old scholar named Qiangbo.

Su Xin said that he was a person who collected excerpt materials, and heard that the other party knew a lot of legends about Qianshan Peak, so he went to find it.

When she was introducing herself, she handed over the prepared "souvenir" naturally.
