Chapter 64 Congratulations to the Groom (3)

The villages in the mountains must have lived a poor life on a daily basis, and it was rare to have such a lively time, so some young people of a similar age made a scene of joy, and there was a lot of people talking about changing cups and cups.I had some conversations with a few old people at the same table, and talked about some new things outside the mountain, and then I heard the voice over there getting louder, and someone shouted at the top of their lungs: "Bride, come out to toast!"

The other juniors laughed loudly, and followed suit, asking the bride to come out and toast.Yang Siyuan got dizzy from their quarrel, so he blushed and shouted: "What are you yelling, come at me if you have the ability!"

Not to be outdone, the younger generations responded, "What are you shouting for? If you have the ability, call the bride out!"

When the old people saw them messing around, they didn't stop them on the big day, they just watched with a smile.Everyone broke out, regardless of the many rules, they clamored for the bride to come out and toast.Yang Siyuan had nothing to do, and couldn't restrain them, and was begging for mercy. At this moment, the first person who yelled suddenly stopped, his eyes straightened, and he seemed to be stunned.

Seeing that he stopped shouting, everyone was a little surprised, and followed his eyes and turned their heads to look at the door.I saw the bride coming over with her head covered under a pair of big lanterns at the door.She took two steps with her head covered, and felt that something on her head was in the way, so she tore it off, revealing a handsome face, walked to the wine table wheezingly, and put her foot on the stool as soon as she lifted it, Immediately with a horizontal knife, he shouted pretty and lively: "Whoever wants a toast for the bride, I will toast you with a big bowl!"

The younger generations were all shocked, and I was also a little surprised when I saw it. Seeing the bride walk out of the bridal chamber, this is an unheard of miracle.Everyone felt that their faces were bright, so you started offering bowls to me, yelling to get the bride drunk, making Yang Siyuan anxious tonight, who told him to marry such a handsome daughter-in-law!

I listened to it and felt a little slandered, thinking that you would be punished for marrying a beautiful girl, but God blesses you to get rewards for the girls you marry in the future.At this time, when the old people saw the bride and the younger generation competing for wine, they all left the table and gathered around, and I also squeezed into the crowd to watch the fun.

The younger generation wanted to pour the bride down, but who knew that the bride poured bowl after bowl of wine into her mouth without getting drunk at all. Instead, the younger generation took turns to fight, and died one by one, drunk one by one. , slipped straight under the table.The crowd of onlookers couldn't help applauding when they saw it.

I was also dumbfounded when I saw her stepping on the stool with one foot, she was so heroic, I couldn't help but think of a heroine in "Water Margin", I suspected that she would clap her hands in the next moment, and pointed at a person under the table. The drunken man laughed and said, "Forgive you for being so wicked as a ghost, and drinking the old lady's foot-washing water!"

Just as he was lost in thought, the patriarch said with a smile on the side: "The bride's house runs a wine shop, and the first mouthful of wine when she lands is the wine. Well, there is finally someone who can clean up these boys."

It turns out that the bride's home is a wine shop, no wonder there are so many.The young man who was the first to make a fuss couldn't bear it anymore, but he still held onto the table and refused to fall down, and said with his tongue out, "Sister-in-law, Siweifu... I've convinced you, and I want to marry a woman like you." A daughter-in-law like you, would you... introduce me?"

The bride replied crisply: "Success! My sister-in-law is watching out for you outside the mountain." Only then did Yang Siwei collapse contentedly.

The drinking scene went on for quite a while, and it didn't dissipate until almost midnight.Every family helped the drunk man back. I stayed at the patriarch's house tonight, so I followed him back after the banquet.When I got home, the patriarch led me to an empty side room, brought me a new quilt and put it on, and told me that the night dew is heavier in the mountains, so I don’t want to catch cold.

After I thanked him, the patriarch closed the door and left.I blew out the lamp and went to bed, because I drank a few more bowls of wine just now, when I felt drunk, I relaxed for a while, and soon I was dragged into sleep with my hands tied.I don't know how long I slept, but all the wine I drank at night turned into urination, which woke me up again.

I got up from the bed and walked out the door. I couldn't help shivering as soon as I went out. It was indeed colder in the mountains than outside the mountains. The night wind blew on my face like a slap in the face, making my face tight.As soon as I was blown by the wind, I suddenly woke up a lot, and I just wanted to return to the embrace of the bed quickly after untying my hands.

The hut is in the courtyard, I walked over in the dark, and was about to go back to the room after untiing my hands, but suddenly I heard footsteps on the path outside the courtyard.The footsteps were very soft, as if they were made by cats or dogs, or someone was walking on tiptoe.I was surprised, so I looked back.

At this moment, the blood in my whole body froze almost instantly, and a chill went straight to the top of my head—a vague figure walked outside the courtyard in the darkness, it seemed to be a dog.This is not surprising, what is strange is that there is a person riding on the dog's back, wearing a red coat and a red hat, but only one foot tall, like a little baby under one year old.

But in the middle of the night, how could there be a baby riding a dog by here?My teeth were chattering constantly, and I suddenly remembered the cause of Hu Xiaotian's death that Yang Sizhao had said, and I almost fell to the ground with my legs limp.

The mountain god patrols the mountain!

I had some doubts about Hu Xiaotian's death before, and thought it might have something to do with the wolf's den, but now I saw the mountain god passing by under my nose, and I just felt that there was a little ghost lying on the back of his neck blowing the wind, his back was chilly, almost He was not scared to death, his whole body seemed to be wrapped in a dark wind, and he couldn't move.

It took me a while to catch my breath, and I moved my stiff legs with difficulty and turned around. Unexpectedly, as soon as I turned around, I found a person standing behind me, staring at me without saying a word.I was in the state of a bow and snake shadow at this time, and I was frightened by this person, and I almost jumped up on the spot. Seeing this, the person hurriedly said: "What's wrong, sir?"

This is the voice of the patriarch. After I heard it, I gasped in shock. Although it was only a short moment, my whole body became a little sore due to excessive tension, and I hurriedly told him what I saw just now.The patriarch was also horrified after hearing this, and immediately looked out of the courtyard, but saw nothing, so he couldn't help but look at me.

I was in a trance after the high tension, and the night was as dark as the bottom of deep water, which was depressing but had nowhere to escape.I looked at the dark courtyard outside for a while, but when I came back to my senses, I found that there was nothing outside the courtyard, and I suddenly felt a little self-doubt in my heart. Is it true that I saw the mountain god just now, or was it just a moment of vertigo?

Seeing that I didn't speak, the patriarch turned his head to look outside the courtyard, but for some reason his face became more serious, and his brows were also frowned.I was afraid that he would think that I was just talking nonsense, so I forced a smile and said: "Maybe because Yang Sizhao told me about Hu Xiaotian's death during the day, so my drunken eyes were blurred, and I was dazzled for a while, which made the patriarch laugh."

The patriarch did not agree, but frowned and asked: "What you saw just now, is the mountain god riding a dog?"

"It may also be a wolf. The night is too dark, so I can't see clearly. I just think the tail of the mount is upturned, so I think it's a dog."

Whether the tail is upturned is an important sign to distinguish wolves from dogs.The patriarch naturally knew this truth, he seemed to think of something when he heard the words, he looked thoughtful, but he didn't say anything, but asked me to go back to the house early, the night wind invades people, so don't suffer from the wind.I calmed down a bit, and went back to the house with him, thinking to myself, seeing the patriarch's expression, he was obviously touched by what I just saw, does he know something?
Thinking about it this way, my heart suddenly wavered again. If this is the case, why did the patriarch not say a word after hearing what I said? What is he hiding?But even if he concealed something from me, I have nothing to blame in the village.After the patriarch said a few words to me in my house, he asked me to have an early rest, and then he closed the door and went out.

I was lying under the blanket, and when I closed my eyes, I saw people in red clothes and hats. The eerie feeling disappeared and returned, and I couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat.Hu Xiaotian was taken away by the mountain god, and if it wasn't for my dizziness, the mountain god appeared in Xiaoyang Village tonight. Does this mean that the mountain god has some relationship with Xiaoyang Village?

That being the case, what about Hu Xiaotian's death?Until now, I still don't know why the mountain god took Hu Xiaotian away. Could the reason be related to Xiaoyang Village?
Hu Xiaotian was the only clue to find Gu Yin's whereabouts, but it was cut off like this. I was really unwilling to do so. I tossed and turned on the bed thinking about it for a long time, and I didn't know when I fell asleep.When it was dawn, I seemed to vaguely hear a burst of wolf howling in my sleep, from far to near, one after another, it seemed that the wolves all over the mountain were howling towards the sky.

Because I slept late, something like that happened again in the night, so I slept deeply and didn't wake up. I just thought about what Yang Sizhao said-the people in the mountains grew up listening to howling wolves.Didn't take it seriously either.

The next day I got up a little late, and when I opened my eyes, I saw that the sun was shining outside the window, and the sun was peeking in from outside the window, so I couldn't help being surprised.It's already so late, but I'm still sleeping soundly in someone's house, which is too rude.Thinking of this, she hurriedly got up, put on her clothes and went out.

The patriarch was already waiting for me in the main room. Seeing me walk in, he asked me with a smile if I slept well last night.I was a little embarrassed, and repeatedly reflected on my sleepiness and being rude in front of the patriarch, and took a peek at him again, seeing that his expression was normal, as if he had forgotten what happened last night.

The patriarch shook his head with a smile, and said, "Sir, he was frightened last night and didn't sleep well. We were rude."

I hastily said a few more polite words, and then went out for breakfast with him.The breakfast followed last night's wedding banquet, and it was still in the open space in front of Yang Siyuan's house. The women had already heated up the food and were inviting everyone to sit.The patriarch and I sat down at the banquet, but Yang Siyuan and the bride were not there.

Seeing this, the patriarch's expression darkened immediately, and he said, "Siyuan and his wife, why don't they come to entertain guests, they don't know how to entertain guests!"

An old man at the same table said: "Last night, the bitch came back and knocked on the door in the middle of the night, scaring the new daughter-in-law. Later, Siyuan came out and led the bitch into the house, and the man and the dog talked about the past for most of the night. They're talking about it in the house now."

"Oh, it's the bitch who came back." The patriarch calmed down, "No wonder I heard wolves howling all night last night. The bitch sent all the wolves from the mountain to congratulate the groom."

It turned out that this was how the wolf howled last night.I was surprised and surprised to hear that it was a bitch congratulating the groom!

But why do they use the word "come back" when talking about the bitch? Isn't the bitch not in the village?I remembered that when I heard about the strange thing about the bitch, I asked Yang Sizhao if the bitch was still in the village, but Yang Sizhao was vague and unwilling to talk about it, as if there was some taboo.

At this time, I heard about the bitch again, so I couldn't help it, so I asked the patriarch, "Why wasn't the bitch in the village before?"

Hearing my question, the patriarch hurriedly said, "Mister also knows about the bitch?"

I told him that on the way here Yang Sizhao told me about the Savior of the Bitch, but he didn't say anything about the follow-up, and now I heard them talking about it again, so I was a little curious for a while.

The patriarch smiled wryly when he heard the words, knocked his hands on the table and said, "Speaking of this, Xiaoyangcun is sorry for the bitch. Sizhao didn't tell you what happened next, it was to save face for Xiaoyangcun."

Since this matter involves Xiaoyang Village's face, I naturally don't want to ask again.Unexpectedly, I stopped asking, but the patriarch went on to talk about it himself. It turned out that the bitch summoned the wolf to rescue Yang Siyuan and others. After returning to the village from the mountains, the village held a family meeting to discuss the treatment of Yang Siyuan and the bitch. .

I was a little surprised when I heard that, didn't the bitch save someone, why did she have to hold a meeting to deal with it?
