Crossing to the Wild
Chapter 121:
After sleeping in the city lord’s mansion for two days, a light white light finally penetrated through the cracks of the stone.
There is no need to look out secretly, Tianyang used a clever effort to pull out a piece of the wall, and the morning sun after snow poured into the room.
As soon as the snow stopped, today was destined to be a busy day. The elders were busy with various affairs, and the issue of the descendants of the city lord made them feel devastated. They almost forgot that there were still two people locked up here.The city guard who was in charge of guarding them didn't receive a notice, and was lazily guarding outside.
Rong Yue was in a good mood, and after making some disguise, he sneaked out with Tianyang and walked on the street where people came and went.
They didn't get up early. The stalls on both sides of the main road were all set up. The residents of Courage City and the air-permeable people from the ground below almost crowded the snow-covered stone city.
Fortunately, the weather is still cold, and the snow on the ground is not so easy to melt. It is difficult to walk without muddy.
Courage City sells a wide variety of things, just like the annual snowmelt valley festival.There are more food stalls than Daji. Those with a little wealth will come out to make tooth sacrifices every other time. The road is full of the smell of food.
"Look at Tianyang," Rong Yue pointed at a distance in surprise, "Is that fried white tofu? I'm still watching egg pancakes!"
Tianyang went to leave him still, bought two portions of dried meat, and then handed the leaf packet to Rong Yue: "Try it."
These are the snacks invented by the Xingyue tribe over the years. They are not all copied recipes anymore. The wild people have made various improvements and innovations to them with other ingredients at hand.
For example, in the pancakes made with twisted seeds earlier, the dexterous grandmother of the Xingyue tribe added a special wild vegetable to create a new taste, which many people like.
Unexpectedly, the City of Courage had all been studied. As expected, the road was repaired, the transportation was convenient, and everything was convenient.
Rong Yue squeezed the tofu into her mouth. Even if there is no salty taste, the fried tofu squeezed out with peanuts is still fragrant. After proper treatment, the white beans can barely replace the soybeans. The tofu made is not fussy. In the eyes of wild people, it is already supremely delicious.
The most important thing is that because these raw materials are all plants, they can be grown on a large scale in a safe area, the yield is greatly increased, and it is not expensive to replace dried meat.
It is a pity that the tribes east of Hoshino are still hovering on the edge of hunger. People can only drool and pinch their noses when they smell the scent on the street. Usually there is not much left in their supplies, and they cannot afford to eat these fresh things.
Rong Yue sighed and comforted herself that next winter won't be anymore. When the time comes, she will also bring the tribes of the Snowmelt Valley Alliance to send them the food truck?
Seeing the excitement on both sides, suddenly a burst of discordant crying came from the bustling crowd ahead.
"Little one! Little two! Who saw it? Two little brats!" The man cried sadly, a woman, repeatedly calling the brat's name and asking passers-by.
"My grandmother was knocked out. Someone must have taken them away. One is still holding a three-year-old. Have you seen it? Please, have you seen it?"
"How could it be that I ran away, my grandmother was knocked out!" The woman raised her voice, whimpering and leaking: "Who the hell is it, who has seen it, please..."
Onlookers felt uncomfortable, but a few of them flickered, as if they saw something but were afraid to say it.
Rong Yue and Tian Yang squeezed into the crowd at this moment.
It was also a stall selling food, and there was a big pot in front of the shed built with animal skins, and hot water was boiling hot inside.
On the table next to them were dried noodles sold by the Xingyue tribe, as well as some side dishes and seasonings. The stall owner was a man sitting on the ground holding his crying wife.
He was silent, but his expression was a little hopeful and at a loss, he had not accepted the sudden bad news.
"What's the matter?" Rong Yue whispered to the onlookers next to her.
The man next door was dressed very thickly, wrapped tightly in a jacket made of large white hair. He watched living well in this city of courage. When someone asked, he suddenly came up and talked about it from beginning to end. Again.
"This noodle seller lives in the back. It has set up a stall for several years. It used to sell broth. In the past year, I bought a lot of fresh things called'noodles' from the merchants. Hey, it tastes really delicious... What happened? I don’t know when the bond was concluded. He gave birth to two cubs and his wife doesn’t like to show up. It seems that he has only come out to meet people recently."
Rong Yue said twice, and continued to listen to the person saying, "Both cubs are still young. The older one is playing nearby occasionally, and the younger one is still raising at home. Just now, I didn’t know who they were and broke into their house and beat the old man. Dizzy, the bastard snatched it...or the two disappeared together. See if this is not anxious."
As he said that, the man said to himself: "It's really weird, what do you do with the kidnapper? Hey..."
Rong Yue had a lot of dark associations in an instant, but he immediately realized that this place is wild, and it stands to reason that there have not been so many "professionals" developed.
So, what do you do for the bastard?
The nature of watching the excitement should not be underestimated, but after another moment or so, the place was completely blocked.
The city guard came for questioning, carrying a stone knife to drive the person out of a gap.
"Chengwei!" The woman's eyes glowed, and she stumbled up: "My bastard is gone! Someone broke into the house and took them away! Please, Chengwei, help us find it, okay?"
Cheng Wei relentlessly drew out the knife and waved it, shouting: "All scattered! This side is all blocked! Go away!"
The woman couldn't get a response, she pulled Chengwei and asked repeatedly. Chengwei finally got bored and cursed: "What to look for! Who would do such a thing if you broke into your house and snatched a bastard? What do you want to do if you grab it? "
What are you doing?The woman was speechless for a while and froze in place.
In everyone's eyes, the bastard is to be born on his own, and there is no point in raising others.Here the human life is short, and the concept of providing for the elderly has not been developed.It is mostly out of instinct and desire for blood continuity.
What can you do to rob someone else's ass?Bai Yang?Everyone is not a fool. Who will do the bad things?
When everyone was too late to think, another team of city guards came and finally cleared the way, and then the burly leader came and learned about the situation from the people around him, his eyes sinking and said: "How do you prove that you have an ass? "
"What?" The woman was stunned.
Leader: "I recognize you, you are Lancao, once the second wife of our city lord."
As soon as this word came out, everyone was in an uproar.
"The former wife of the city lord!?"
"Why did you still give birth to cubs with this stall? Didn't you say that you can't give birth..."
"Who knows if she was born? I have spoken to the stall owner. I have never said that it is his bonded wife. Hey, I said why this person always stayed in the house and couldn't come out before. It turns out that he is such an identity... …"
"Speaking of which, where did the previous twenty wives of the city lord go? It seems that he didn't say that he could not marry again."
"I really didn't say no, but it has been proven that I can't hold the cubs. Which man will marry? This stall owner's cubs are definitely not born from bluegrass, right? What about the cubs' grandmother?"
...
The crowd kept whispering, and Rong Yue frowned and listened to it, her fingertips scratching in Tianyang's palm.
They understood each other's meaning without saying anything. Liu Rongyue stayed in place to see the situation, while Tianyang disappeared in place.
The woman was stimulated one after another, and she forgot everything she was afraid of. She shouted hysterically: "What proof do you want!? That is my cub! I gave birth to it myself!"
Her throat is already dumb, which makes people unbearable.
"Why should I lie to you? If you don't believe me, if you don't believe me, ask, ask next door, many people have seen Xiaoyi! Xiaoyi often runs around in the stall!" She scanned the crowd eagerly, but no one dared to speak.
In the City of Valor, the lord holds the power, but the residents have no chance of contact.On the contrary, it is the city guard, because it represents the meaning of the city lord and the elders, and is worshiped and feared by ordinary people.
And the captain of the city guard was full of momentum, and when he scanned the crowd, there was a chill, and no one dared to speak out for a short time.
After the silence, the eagerness on the woman's face was gradually replaced by despair, she murmured: "You guys, you guys are talking... Xiaoyi was still there just now... so many people saw it, so many people..."
The captain of the city guard twirled the corners of his mouth, as he was about to say something, suddenly he heard a clear voice: "She's right."
Swish, Rong Yue became the focus of the attention ceremony, and the people around spontaneously backed away, leaving a small circle around him.
Later, they discovered that it was two people who gave up-Rong Yue still clasped the other's wrist tightly, with a sad and awkward expression.
Rong Yue took a few steps forward and walked into the center circle while dragging the white coat brother who had just given him the ins and outs of science.
"When I just came here, this brother told me that this stall owner had a bond for a few years and had two cubs. The older one often runs around, and the younger one keeps at home, everyone around knows."
After speaking, he looked at the white coat brother: "Brother, are you right?"
The passerby in a white jacket waved his hands, regretting his conversation a few minutes ago.
He was weird, but he was just a man who looked weak, his wrists were white and thin, and he couldn't get rid of how he clasped himself!?
Realizing that he couldn't get rid of it, he finally gave up and said, "I said, there are two cubs."
The corner of Rong Yue's eyes bends slightly, and she looks at Chengwei: "Look, there are some cubs, and they are indeed gone now. Instead of entangled in who gave birth, it's better to call someone to find out, okay?"
The passer-by was clear in his speech before gossip, with basic order, and the volume was moderate, without flinching.
In addition, he dressed very well, and Rong Yue judged that his family was good. Such a person had little chance of being afraid of the city guard, and generally dared to speak.
Sure enough, after realizing that he was involved, he did not hide, and answered frankly.
Hope rekindled in the woman's eyes, and Cheng Wei sank and said, "Did you see it today?"
The passerby was taken aback: "I just came here today, I didn't see it."
Chengwei: "That doesn't have to be robbed, maybe somewhere to play."
Is this what people say!?
No matter how stupid the onlookers were, they felt something was wrong at this moment.It's not a habitual deceiver, who would be joking with his own ass?There is no reason for others to snatch cubs, but do they have reasons to lie about losing cubs?
Even if the bluegrass is incapable of giving birth, it is also the owner's cub. The current attitude of Chengwei seems to be deliberate.
Reminiscent that Lancao was once the second wife of the city lord, there are those with bigger brains in the crowd, and the imaginary wings have flapped into flies.
Others can think of it, so can Brother Bai Coat naturally.
He frowned and said, "What are you hiding? Do you have a share in the thing that this kid lost?"
Cheng Wei's heart suddenly jumped, and he yelled, "Nonsense!"
After changing to others, he was so scared to say forgiveness, but the white coat brother didn't look worried, not afraid, but tired?
Rong Yue was going to help him speak, but now she found that she was lucky, so she watched silently.
"I'm talking nonsense," Brother Bai Yu stopped smiling, and became serious: "I heard that someone has lost a cub. As a city guard, you not only don't help, but you suspect that other people have no cubs. Would normal people think that way?"
The more he talked, the more suspicious he became: "There is also this sister called Lancao, right? The city lord has married 20 wives. Those may have been four or five years earlier? You still remember your looks and names. Call it out? Huh..." Brother Bai Coat rolled his eyes: "Even my own wife has changed a lot after five years. I might have to hesitate when I see it suddenly."
Everyone laughed.
The city lord accumulated a lot of power in the city of courage, and no one would dare to make a joke on him. At this moment, he was suddenly ridiculed. Everyone was very fresh and had a secret excitement.
Hey, so how did the captain of the city guard recognize the bluegrass?
The captain of the city guard's face changed from blue to red, and it was wonderful. After taking a deep breath for a while, he waved his hand: "You, disrespect the city lord, take it away and lock it up!"
Everyone didn't dare to laugh anymore, and they retracted one by one, for fear that the city guard would see that he was smiling just now, otherwise wouldn't it be as unlucky as this person...
But under the gaze of everyone, Brother Bai Coat saw no fear on his face, instead he laughed mockingly: "Dare you? My Abba is the Twenty Elder!"
Turning around, this good show turned upside down and suddenly turned into a power struggle in the City of Courage.
In principle, the city guard should not be afraid of a son of an elder, but the elder can control the city guard, if he offends a person, the day he takes the person back is the moment he fell from the city guard position...
The two were in a stalemate, and the honest stall owner and the dazed Lancao stood aside.
Lancao wanted to say several times, where is my cub, but the courage seemed to have been exhausted just now, her mouth opened and closed, she couldn't speak, only tears trickled down.
Her father's generation began to settle in City of Courage, and once had a happy family.
Lancao has grown well since she was a child, and because of her popularity, everyone said that she would marry a handsome and capable man with a good family background.
But the family situation is better, so she is scared, but she has no expectations for the conclusion.
The city owner’s wife has not been able to pick up the cubs in a year. Although the time is not long, the city owner can’t wait.Abandoned the old man, planning to marry a new man.At that time, bluegrass had a bad feeling.
Sure enough, after half a year, she didn't figure it out, she embarked on the old path of her last wife.
After returning home, she was sad for a long time. Before she could come out of the shadows, her not-so-old A-ba and A-ma fell ill and passed away in a hurry.
The bluegrass had no means of sustaining life, and when she had finished eating her food, she would have to go hungry. Suddenly she found that it was too difficult to live.And she can't give birth to cubs, she is destined to be unworried.
The saddest time was when the stall owner rescued her, took her back, gave her food and drink, and said that it doesn't matter if there is no cub.
Lancao had married the city owner, and it was reasonable to say that she could not remarry openly. She did not dare to go out to meet people, and the stall owner was also left to her.
Days became better day by day, and the most shocking thing happened to her-she was obviously barren, but she had a baby!
The city lord is still in any position, but Lancao is keenly aware of the truth.It is not that she has the problem at all, it is the city lord who has the problem.
Keeping this secret, I didn't intend to say that Lancao and the stall owner lived their own lives. Until the past two years, when no one paid attention to her and remembered her, she dared to help the stall owner cook noodles together.
But the bad news came so quickly, she almost desperately thought, where did her cub go, really want her to gain and lose?
"Bluegrass?" She suddenly heard someone calling her, which seemed to have called her several times.She recovered, and only felt that the voice was gentle and moist, as if it were the softest silk scarf, warmly baked.
"Don't worry," Rong Yue comforted her in a low voice, "Your cub will come back, and my companion has already gone looking for it."
"Really, really?" She let out a dry and dumb voice, and blushed again. It must be that she was dumb just now...
"Stop talking, watch it first." Rong Yue smiled at her and the stall owner.
Obviously they didn't say anything useful, but the two of them made a god.
The time to talk here, the other side was still wrangling, after about ten minutes, someone outside suddenly shouted: "The city, the city lord is here! And the elders!!!"
Oh, this battle.
The melon-eating crowd gave way spontaneously. The city lord and the elder had a bad expression. They both approached from a distance, and asked at the same time: "What's the matter!?"
After speaking, the city lord saw the bluegrass, pretending to be surprised: "Why are you!"
The city lord is Lancao's nightmare. Looking at him, Lancao's face turns pale.
But she remembered the words of the young people around her, and suddenly felt strength in her body, raised her head again, and said in the loudest voice: "I, my cub was snatched away!"
The city lord's head buzzed, never expected that Lancao would dare to speak up about this matter!
How can she?How dare she!
Thinking that one sentence was not enough, the blue grass continued: "Believe me, that is really my cub! After being driven out of the city lord’s mansion, I and Apeng are together. I originally thought that I could not give birth, but Apeng I said that I don’t care...but we were only together for one season, and I had a cub, gave birth to a primary one, and after two years I had a secondary secondary, and I had not been weaned yet..."
"Everyone has seen Little One and Little Two. They belong to me. I swear to God!" She said more and more loudly, flushing on her face: "The one who can't give birth is the city lord!"
When the elders arrived in a hurry, they just heard this loud and loud sentence, and they almost fainted collectively.
"Disperse! Disperse--"
The elders brought a large group of city guards to drive people, but what's the use?I should hear it, but I can't forget it if I want to. Everyone is just not good at thinking, and they are not really fools.The lord of the city has changed twenty wives, and if the wives change, there will be...
City Lord, it seems that it is really not good!
Everyone's eyes pricked the city lord's blood to his head.In his rage, his eyes turned black and shouted: "She lied! She has no cubs! She can't give birth at all! Otherwise, where are the cubs? If you can find out, there will be evidence!"
After the city lord shouted hysterically, he was convinced by himself.
He had people throw the two boys into the ravine outside the city today. They should be thrown down now. They are still young, and it is impossible for them to climb up in a short time or be found.
The city owner kept comforting himself in his heart, trying to calm himself down, but the bad premonition was always with him, and he took it when his voice fell.
"found it."
The three short words hit the city lord's head like a hammer.
A familiar man, who should be locked in the city lord's mansion, appeared in front of everyone with a cub in one hand.
How did he come out?
Bastard.
How did he find the bastard!?
"Hey, it's really a little one!"
"Oh, put it down quickly and see if the cub is crying..."
"Is this the cub of that couple? It looks very similar. The small one is not visible, but the big one looks like the bluegrass. Look at those eyes."
"I believe this was born by the bluegrass itself, otherwise it wouldn't be so precious..."
Tianyang put Xiao Yi down, and handed Xiao Er wrapped in a swaddle to the trembling stall owner.The little turnip head plunged into his grandmother's arms, crying so badly.
The warmer this scene is, the more ridiculous the city lord will be.
His horribly thin body couldn't support the sudden blow. He staggered two steps and fell onto the muddy snow.
It is known.
He is done.
****
Three days later, the city of Courage, after a farce, returned to tranquility.
As the temperature rises, the snow gradually melts, and in about five days, the outsiders in the city will be on their way home during the winter.
There was little snow again this night, but there was a brazier lively in the small noodle stall, and torches were inserted outside the tent, reflecting a piece of snow.
Rong Yue and Tian Yang opened the curtain and got in.
"Good fragrance!" Rong Yue sniffed, and was immediately pounced with a small carrot head: "Yue Sacrifice!"
"Good." He rubbed Xiao Yi and his head, and the enthusiastic stallholder greeted him: "Yue Sacrifice, Lord Tianyang, sit down!"
Eventually all the things that day broke up.
The city lord asked the city guard to help throw the boy into the ditch, and was finally asked by the wise elder. The evidence was shining brightly before his eyes, and the city lord's frantic behavior was shocking.
These days, the elders have been discussing how to deal with the issue of the city lord. Originally, the opinions of substitution and non-change were divided, but once this happened, the city lord not only had to step down, but even had to be punished.
Throwing the cub into the ravine is no different from killing. This is a word that makes people frighten even if they think of it, but the city lord actually did it.
Just because I don't want to be known that secret.
The more you want to bury it, the easier it will be exposed. If he didn't deliberately find trouble with the bluegrass, maybe everyone would not know it in his life.But now it is too late.
After the incident spread, the eight "ex-wives" of the city lord who were still in the city also stood up one after another. Five of them had reconciled in a low-key manner, and all had their own cubs.
This is the end of the matter, and the responsibility of the city lord is undoubted.
The lord is deposed, and there will be a new lord in Courage City.
The elders began to pull and engage in relationships, and Rong Yue quietly took the white coat brother to the corner to talk alone.
The specific agreement for bereavement and humiliation of the country, Bai Coat brother did not want to mention again, but it is true that he was lucky enough-because of the recommendation of the Xingyue tribe, as the youngest son of the twenty elders, he ascended as the lord of the city.
It was also at this time that the city lord and the elders knew that these two turned out to be the leaders and sacrifices of that magical Xingyue tribe.
The power center of Courage City had a frantic discussion with them, and the two at the center of the topic enjoyed the customs for a few days, and accepted the invitation of the bluegrass family to have dinner.
"Thank you Lord Tianyang, Moon Sacrifice. If it weren't for you, Xiaoyi and Xiaoer would be really..." Lancao stood up at the dinner table, blushing and bowed heavily.
After revealing their identities in the City of Courage, the two naturally changed their minds. They threw away the rags and clothes that covered their identities.Rong Yue's white hair was washed and then put on, and she was very graceful. After walking on the street for two days, the entire City of Courage was his legend.
"With a little effort, everyone is a compatriot." Rong Yue said with a smile: "We have discussed a lot of new plans with the new city owner. After the beginning of the spring, your city of courage will probably change drastically."
The stall owner said anxiously: "Then can I make noodles?"
"Yes," Rong Yue said: "There will be more varieties. Our alliance also has a variety of delicious foods, and you will slowly taste them."
Rong Yue brought a lot of delicious snacks from the space, ate Xiao Yi without raising her head.
The Lancao couple looked at them, only felt that Rong Yue and the others were no different from the gods.
Miraculous power, a new item that has never been seen before, the ability to easily renew a city, and... the redemption given to her in despair.
Although she didn't say anything, she silently regarded them as gods.
How happy Rong Yue and the others were when they ate, how uncomfortable the city lord was locked in the 20th cave.
Even if there are many fewer people, the scattered smell is still disgusting.The constant snoring noise throughout the day caused his head to explode, and he was guarded by the city guard, and there was no room to lie down.
This is the punishment that the elders discussed together.
"What's the noise!" The city lord finally couldn't stand it, and shouted: "You bitches! Poor little tribe! Can you shut your mouth when you sleep!? I'll slap you again!"
The men who had been awakened by his scolding stood up irritably, fisted and kicked him around.
"What the hell!?" "I thought you were the lord of the city..." "It's all this bad guy. He took our usual jerky and gave us such a hole!" "He's quite proud--"
The city owner was too thin to resist, and the city guard who guarded him looked at him coldly.
To be able to do such a vicious thing for self-interest, the city guards felt that the fight was light.
