The great hero of the Silk Road, starting from a farm farmer

Chapter 36 This year, Kuiwa will take the lead when playing club fire in Zhuangli!
After everyone had left and it was almost dawn, the family tidied up and got ready to go to bed to refresh themselves.

It was at this time that Song Yingkui woke up from the state of excitement. This was the first time he had seriously injured someone in two lifetimes. Thinking about it, he was a little scared.

When chopping up the bandits, he was so angry that he didn't think about it. If he was sober, he wouldn't dare to chop it up if he wasn't sure!There was really no technical content in this battle, and the fight was all about the strength honed by months of sledgehammer hammering. If it weren't for luck, it might be me who suffered the loss.Then there are the bandits in Zuojiazhuang, they are not thugs, they just bully and bully the honest peasants nearby, and they are really scared when they encounter ruthless people.

"The family suffered a blood disaster, I'm done looking for an artist, don't come out!" During lunch, Grandpa Song Tianshun felt that he had an idea, and began to worry about the aftermath of the family.

"Grandpa, you can figure it out! I'll go to the shop later and go home in the evening! Or let the third father and the others come to the house in the evening, as there are more people in the family!" Song Yingkui didn't understand the superstition of Jimen, but he didn't stop it, so let grandpa fix it.

"Your three fathers come to the house, no one in the shop will see if it will work?"

"There is nothing valuable in the shop. Besides, there are Jia's family and people who come to grind noodles over there. The bandits dare not come." In winter, there are many people lining up to grind noodles by the water mill.

"How about it! When your third father comes up, the men in the house will have one more life. If the bandits want to attack our family again, you have to weigh it. By the way, do you have another long ax in your shop? If you have any, take another one at home. If there are more bandits, you and your third father will cut off a few more legs of the dogs." The grandson cut off the bandit's legs last night.

"I'll make another one and bring it to the house in the afternoon." Originally, Song Yingkui's plan was to make a few knives and other weapons for the family to defend himself, but judging from the effect of using a long ax to chop people last night, it seems better to use a long ax?Both myself and my third uncle are people who wield a sledgehammer, so it seems easier to make a long axe!If you really get a knife, you may not be able to do it!
Went to the shop in the afternoon, and the third father had already heard about the bandits at home last night from the people who went to grind the noodles in the village.Seeing Song Yingkui, he quickly asked about the specific situation.Hearing that his nephew had cut off a bandit's leg, Song Xueliang said that he was not at home, otherwise he could have cut off another bandit's leg.The Song family had an instinctive hatred for bandits!
Although the third uncle was slower to learn the craft, he was not inferior to Song Yingkui in terms of strength. Recently, he forged iron and swung a sledgehammer. The strength of the hammer was mainly done by the third uncle. Let him chop people with an axe, maybe he can really cut one more person.

Hit an ax and was busy doing work for a while.When it was getting dark, I carried an ax and rushed home with my third uncle and the two little ones.Speaking of which, the family seems to have to buy one or two more animals, so that when they walk home from the shop, they can have a car to sit in and save some effort.

When I got home, I found that my grandpa was also in the main room, smoking and chatting with my grandpa.The incident of the bandits breaking into the house last night seemed to ease the relationship between the two old brothers a lot.

"Kuiwa is here? I want to tell you something. Tomorrow night, you come back early and go directly to the Yangjiabaozi. The village wants to discuss about playing Shehuo during the Chinese New Year. You want to participate." After seeing Song Yingkui, the grandfather spoke to him.

"The Zhuangshang discussed playing Shehuo, why should I participate? Isn't it all discussed by the adults! My grandpa will do it!" Song Yingkui was a little puzzled when the grandpa invited himself to participate in the meeting of Zhuangshang playing Shehuo.In my memory, it seems that there are no opportunities for young people to speak, only participation.

"You have to go this year. I want to fight for a dragon player for our Song family. Seven of your parents and brothers in our family, plus your brother's additions, can just make up a handful of people who can play dragons. I look around, the leader of the dragon is worthy of you. Tomorrow night, when the Yangjiabao is discussing, our grandpa and grandson will have to fight for it!" The grandpa blew smoke rings, and said that he wanted Song Yingkui to attend the meeting!

The social fires in the northwest frontier mainly consist of drums, dragon dances, and lion dances, and then there are the spring officials, horse platoons, brush teams, lanterns, flags, donkeys, gongs, and dry boats.It's really fun for a family to control a dragon, but what's the point?Song Yingkui didn't feel anything about Zhuangshang's organization of the Shehuo team during the Spring Festival and playing Shehuo. He felt that this thing was full of food and nothing to do!

In the era of material abundance in the later generations, it is not a bad idea to have a lot of fun during the Spring Festival.In this day and age, eating a full meal is a strenuous task, and doing something that consumes a lot of energy and has no practical significance is really full.

"Grandpa, why don't we fight for a job of playing dragons? As usual, just do odd jobs with others? When I was playing Shehuo a few years ago, the one I played flags was good? This year I will play flags! Besides, I have never done the job of holding a dragon head, and I don't know how to play it."It's better to be a standard bearer and play soy sauce with the Shehuo team.

"You baby, you are seventeen this year, and you still want to play the flag? Either you hold the dragon, or carry the drum. The work of playing the flag is not done by dolls. You are not fighting for the leader, but follow the other person's back. You are also a famous person in the village now. If you don't want to find a way to get a leader who plays social fire, you can't do it? You can't hold the dragon. I will teach you. The most clever, there is nothing you can't learn!" The grandfather was a little angrily admonishing Song Yingkui, thinking of pushing his nephew and grandson to others, but this guy retreated by himself.

That's right, playing Shehuo in Zhuangshang usually takes three years and three years off. When I played Shehuo three years ago, I was still a half-child and could only do chores such as holding flags and lanterns. Now I am treated as an adult.

"I'll come back early tomorrow night, and follow Grandpa to Yangjiabaozi to compete for the job of being the leader!" Whether it's palming the dragon or carrying the drum, these two jobs are all labor-intensive jobs.You also need to work hard, and if you want to be the leader, you can still stand out, so let's fight for it.

"Okay, it's settled like this! When you arrive at Yangjiabao tomorrow night, look at me and do things with winks, and be tough when you have to speak! The matter of the village should be fought! Your grandfather and I have no reputation in the village all our lives. In your generation, our family is so popular, we can no longer be cowardly!"
