Chapter 17 17. Mountain Residence
deep mountains
Song Cheng stood up, and Tong Jia was naturally brought awake.
When she heard her man yelling, her sleepy eyes slowly regained their clarity and she realized what had happened.
So, she looked around, only to see fog rising on Cangshan Mountain, and the icy wind howling.
It was a day like this, and it was in the deep mountains and forests, so it was impossible for a girl named Yun'e to run far away.
Tong Jia suddenly said in shock: "Sister-in-law Yun'e can't think about it, can't she?"
She knows the truth, and naturally also knows Yun'e's pain.
For Yun'e, this Tanghe Village is a complete hell.
But what puzzled her was why the villagers hated Yun'e so much. She was even more frightened when she recalled the scene of being immersed in a pig cage. She just felt that the villagers were crazy.
Song Cheng grabbed the thin knife and tapped the ground gently. The ripples spread out and revealed the cold branches on the ground.
He bent down to pick up cold branches and piled them into the embers of the extinguished campfire.
Tong Jia quickly stood up.
If you sleep in a cave, you should sleep with your clothes on.
She dug out the fire folder that she had carefully stored and went to light a fire.
After several attempts, the bonfire started to rise.
Light brings warmth, forming a soft and fragile light field that resists the coldness and desolation of the mountains and plains.
The two came close and sat together.
Tong Jia took out another pancake and prepared to bake it and eat it, and said, "Brother Cheng, didn't you notice it last night? Also, you should tell me now why we fled to the mountains, right?"
Song Cheng naturally did not hide these things from his own women, so he talked about the "principle of the formation of taboos" and "Sanlang Ding's collusion with bandits", and then concluded: "I guess we have just left the village, and the village is already there." After being robbed by bandits, Yun'e's wife has become a taboo, or a terrifying dirty thing. "
Tong Jia's delicate body was trembling, but she was as smart as snow. She suddenly said: "The reason why the villagers seem to be crazy is also the influence of the taboo? I remember that although they are xenophobic, they are by no means that crazy. It is like they have completely lost their minds."
Song Cheng nodded and said: "Those are the seeds of evil that bloomed in the forbidden soil."
Tong Jiadao: "Then us"
Song Chengdao: "The core of the taboo is Yun'e's wife. Think about it, at that time, how many people in the whole village were good to Yun'e's wife?"
Tong Jia suddenly became enlightened.
At that time, she and Song Cheng were the only ones who were kind to Yun'e.
Perhaps it was Yun'e's power that subtly protected her and him.
However, just hearing this kind of thing made her feel cold all over.
Song Cheng put his arm around her shoulders and hugged her into his arms. Suddenly he felt an inexplicable itching sensation in his eye sockets. Some kind of extremely cold current was protruding from his head, and then wrapped around the eyeballs that filled his eye sockets. .
He rubbed his eyes.
The itching sensation was added to the feeling of fullness.
"What's wrong, Brother Cheng?" Tong Jia noticed something strange.
Song Cheng's eyes suddenly widened, revealing his eyes that were like turbid white jade, and wisps of cold black tadpoles suddenly emerged from the depths of his eyes. These tadpoles quickly condensed toward the center of his eyes, forming two black eyeballs.
The blazing red flames, the gray-black branches dancing in the flames, the pale caves, the gray mountains, the ghostly mist, and the petite lady wrapped in cotton clothes beside her.
Everything appears, everything becomes clear.
"I, I, I can see."
Song Cheng couldn't believe it.
He kept looking around. Although he had looked around every day in his previous life, when he opened his eyes now, it was indescribably new.
Tong Jiadao: "It must be Yun'e's sister-in-law who helped, we have to thank her.
Didn't she become an evil ghost? We can set up a place for her and burn incense to worship her on weekdays.
If I have money in the future, I can build a temple for her. "
Song Cheng sighed softly and nodded.
For breakfast, the two ate cakes and then began to discuss a way out.
Tong Jia drew a map on the ground. She often visited the mountains and forests, so she was naturally familiar with the environment here.
“Here, here, and then we can reach Shanghe County.
But if we don't go to Shanghe County, but go around from the north, we will reach Six Towns, but this road is very long.
If you want to go to Fucheng instead of the north, you have to turn south. This road is not only long, but also has no mountain road, and it should be untraveled. "
Three routes, this is obvious.
If you go to Shanghe County, you may encounter bandits.
One way to go to Six Towns is a long way.
The road to Fucheng is long and difficult.
Among them, Shanghe County is the "county town" among the villagers of Tanghe Village.
Fucheng is the superior city under the jurisdiction of Tanghe Village, Shanghe County, etc.
As for Six Towns, this is a rather special place. It is a "military town" in nature. The folk customs are fierce, there are many martial arts practitioners, and it is rumored that there are many gangs.
This place was originally the Great Wall against foreign thieves, but something strange seems to have happened recently. Before, a general came to Tanghe Village to recruit young men, and he took them to the Sixth Town.
"Brother Cheng, where are we going?" asked the hostess.
Song Cheng looked at the route map on the ground and felt that every route was full of danger. After a while, he suddenly said: "Why not live in seclusion?"
"Seclusion?"
The hostess clasped her fingers and said, "Well, what are we going to eat in this winter?"
Song Cheng stood up and said, "Now that I have recovered my eyesight, I can definitely try to hunt in the mountains."
He can "see data through walls", and those hibernating animals are "living targets" for him. In theory, he doesn't have to worry about food.
He can become stronger if he and the young lady of the Dong family have sex.
He can deduce the skills, even if the success rate is only 10%, then the worst thing is to try a few more times.
He already has "White Snake Blade" as the first pot of gold.
The only worry is that this deep mountain forest will nurture taboos again.
Without popularity, it is difficult to fill the yin, and taboos will definitely arise.
But if he sees the budding of taboos, he will take the young lady of the Dong family away in advance.
In his previous life, he often saw some novels with things like "the protagonist can't wait to rush to the next place after one thing is over, and then get involved in all kinds of shitty events, which are thrilling."
At that time, he often thought, "My friend, do you have ADHD? Can't you stay in a stable place with peace of mind, use all the resources you can use first, wait until you are fully stronger, wait until your resources are not enough to support your improvement, and then go to the next place? Why are you in such a hurry?"
Since there is room for improvement, Song Cheng doesn't plan to leave.
His eyes are better.
He wants to practice in this deep mountain.
Song Cheng did what he said, saying, "My lady, we have to find a place with water, so that we can live conveniently."
The young lady of the Dong family blinked and looked at him, and said hesitantly, "Do we really want to live here?"
After that, she said to herself, "Okay, okay, you are my man, who else should I listen to if I don't listen to you?"
She packed her luggage again.
The luggage piled up into a small mountain.
She was about to carry it on her back, but Song Cheng grabbed it easily and put it on his shoulder. He looked at how light it was.
The two walked for a while, and Song Cheng suddenly saw a data emerging from the soil not far away:
[Strength: 0~0].
He hurried forward, poured his strength into his arm, and stabbed down with his knife.
Puff!
The knife broke through the soil, as if it had pierced something.
The black [Strength: 0~0] became gray and then disappeared.
Tong Jia shouted from behind: "Boss, what are you doing? What can you poke through the dirt?"
Song Cheng kicked the dirt and made a hole. He picked out a fat rabbit with his knife.
He smiled and said: "We have meat to eat today. By the way, what did you call me?"
Tong Jia:.
She suddenly looked at Song Cheng dimly and said: "I called you Boss."
After that, she said: "Boss, you merged with that lonely ghost, you are not an ordinary disciple of the gang, right?"
Song Cheng was shocked.
Tong Jia said: "At least he must be an elite disciple of the gang."
