"Uncle Xiao, I heard Mr. Wu talk about Liang Yue's life experience. She said that she found her biological parents after she came back. So, her biological parents are..."
Lao Xiao nodded: "That's right. Liang Yue's parents are from the Goddess Village. And Liang Yue was identified as one of the five Goddess candidates just after she was born. Oh, by the way, there are still some candidates for this kind of Goddess among them. This name is Duo Nu. It means that these five are all budding flowers, but only one will finally bloom."
"Duo Nu? Liang Yue is Duo Nu?" Third Uncle asked in surprise.
Old Xiao kept his composure, and continued: "That's right, Yue girl is also a poor person. Since she was born, her life path has been doomed. At the beginning, she will be injected with drugs to carry out human transformation. After a successful human transformation, you have to fight with other Duo Nu. It’s okay to win, and you can become a Goddess, supreme. Although you can’t leave the Goddess Village for a lifetime, at least you still have your life. If you lose, this life will be lost. Gone. What is even more frightening is that most of the people in the Goddess Village agree with such a way of life. It has never changed for hundreds of years. Moreover, the children in their own family can be selected as Duo Nu. It's an extremely honorable thing. They don't even think about the fate of the child."
After listening to Lao Xiao's words, I deeply felt that there were too many unreasonable problems hidden in such a closed village.Such a custom, if placed in modern society, must be intolerable by law and morality.But Goddess Village has continued this custom for hundreds of years.
When the third uncle heard this, he nodded and said: "I see, it must be that Liang Yue's parents still have some conscience. They didn't want their daughter to become a flower girl, so they sent Liang Yue out of the Goddess Village and sent her to Liang Yue. The home of her adoptive parents, so that Liang Yue did not stay in Shennvzhai, and was able to live in the way of modern people."
Chapter 386
Old Xiao sighed, and said: "That's right, that's it. You know, sending Duo Nu out privately in Shennvzhai is extremely difficult, and it is a great crime. It seems that it has never happened since ancient times. This is why Liang Yue's parents were punished by the Goddess Village after sending Liang Yue out."
I asked again: "Liang Yue's parents were punished? How?"
Old Xiao shook his head: "I came back with Liang girl, and I came back for this matter. Until now, I don't know what punishment Liang Yue's biological parents have received. But what is certain is that this punishment will not be light. In addition, what method they used to send Liang Yue out of the Goddess Village is still a mystery. The Goddess Village has been investigating this matter, and there may be no results, so I guess Liang Yue's parents must still be alive now. Zhai wants to get something out of their mouths and won't let them die."
The third uncle thought for a while and said, "Old Xiao, we will go to the Goddess Village tomorrow. Have you thought about the action plan yet?"
Old Xiao smiled wryly: "To be honest, I didn't even think about it. Because when I went to the Goddess Village last time, I originally wanted to follow Liang Yueneng into the village, but I only walked around the edge of the village twice before being discovered. So I can only stay outside the Goddess Village for a few days. In the past few days, it was Yue girl who passed on the news to me. All the things I know were told by Yue girl. And the Duo girl in the cave, too Yue girl came out to let me save her. I wanted to know more about the situation, but Yue girl didn't come to meet me for a few days. I guess my whereabouts might be exposed, so I took that Duo Nu, I have left from the Goddess Village. I have been waiting here for you all this time. Therefore, I don't know anything about what is going on in the Goddess Village."
I questioned: "Uncle Xiao, Liang Yue was working in the Northwest at that time, how did he know about his biological parents? How did he get into the Goddess Village when he came here?"
Xiao Bo took another sip of his wine and said: "At that time, someone sent a letter to Miss Yue, and there was another thing. The letter stated Liang Yue's life experience and the fact that her parents were being punished. After her adoptive parents confirmed this, they decided to go north to Goddess Village."
The third uncle also asked: "There is one more thing? Is that a token for entering and leaving the Goddess Village?"
Xiao Bo nodded: "That's right. It's a piece of clothing. Wearing that clothing, you can freely enter and exit the Goddess Village. So at that time only Liang Yue could enter, but I could only wait outside for news."
The third uncle grinned after hearing this: "I said Lao Xiao, now I understand that if we want to rescue that girl Liang Yue, we must enter the Goddess Village. We found it, we don’t have the special clothes, we still can’t get in, it’s useless if you ask us to come.”
Xiao Bo smiled: "I've thought about this a long time ago. I can't find the Goddess Village, but we can find a guide."
I was stunned: "Looking for a guide? Where can I find it?"
Uncle Xiao glanced at my third uncle and me, and asked, "Since you know that Sister Hua is here, have you also discovered the secret of the paper figurine?"
I answered truthfully: "That's right. We have already questioned Sister Hua, and she said that the people from Shennvzhai bought the thing she grinded."
Xiao Bo nodded: "I know that Sister Hua's tricks will definitely be seen through by you, so I am not worried about your safety at all. The guides I am talking about are actually from the group of goddesses who came to collect Sister Hua's things People. They are definitely going back to the Goddess Village, as long as we follow them, we can find the Goddess Village smoothly. As for the Goddess Village, I have my own way to let us sneak in without being discovered. "
The third uncle scratched his head, and said, "This is a way. It's just that we are here, and Sister Hua may not dare to use that method to grind the medicine powder again."
When I mentioned Sister Hua and the powder she made with paper figurines, I suddenly remembered something, and asked Lao Xiao: "Uncle Xiao, you said that after Duo Nu is confirmed, a drug will be injected into their bodies. It's like the hormone in the cicada's body to control the sloughing. So this kind of medicine, could it be the kind that was grinded out from Sister Hua?"
The third uncle also said: "Yes, Sister Hua also said that the people from Shennvzhai come to buy that kind of medicinal powder regularly, and it must be used by Shennvzhai."
Old Xiao nodded: "I'm not sure, but I think it's about the same. It should be the case. I don't know anything about medicine, otherwise I can be sure after analyzing the ingredients of the medicine powder."
I waved my hand: "In my opinion, let's go to the Goddess Village as soon as possible. There are many problems, and maybe we can only find out there. The most urgent thing right now is to get Sister Hua to cooperate with us."
Old Xiao smiled cunningly: "That's not easy. I guess your third uncle must have used some means against Sister Hua, right? As long as Li Daochang asks her to cooperate with us, she will definitely do it."
As soon as I became interested, I hurriedly asked Old Xiao: "Uncle Xiao, how do you know that my third uncle used tricks on Sister Hua?"
Old Xiao smiled: "It's not easy? When I first entered the door, I saw that half of Sister Hua's face was swollen, and her eyes were wrong when she saw your third uncle. She was terrified, and the flesh on her face jumped up. That face The powder on the top is falling down...haha..."
What Lao Xiao made fun of Sister Hua made the three of us laugh out loud in the room.
The tension of the past few days has made our emotions very depressed.We are anxious because there is no news from Lao Xiao and the others, and Lao Xiao is because he is alone here, a little lonely and unable to think of a better way.So I was suffocating in my heart.
Now the three of us are gathered together, although we don't know what to do next, but the three cobblers are the best of Zhuge Liang, and we can discuss what happens.
So the three of us also took this opportunity to laugh, one to vent our inner depression, and the other to relieve our nervousness.
The third uncle smiled and scolded: "Damn, I just slapped her, and I didn't care about her. Why are you laughing like this?"
Lao Xiao smiled and burst into tears, pointing at the third uncle: "Then what do you want to do to her? Is it possible to take her home? That Daoist, you have a bit of a bad taste..."
The third uncle glared at Old Xiao: "I didn't expect that you, Old Xiao, look honest and honest, and you are also an old and dishonest person."
I looked at this topic, and I was about to get off the ground while I was talking, and quickly maintained order: "Okay, this topic is over. We are on business. By the way, Xiao Bo, I saw Liang Yue in the stone house behind The paper doll stand-in, how come there is no yours?"
Chapter 387
Lao Xiao nodded: "Actually, this sister Hua's shop is all under the supervision of the people in Shennvzhai. Liang Yue and I were also living here at the time, and I destroyed my double at that time. Otherwise, I would have been I can't hide my identity, and I will be discovered by the people in Shennvzhai soon. I have also destroyed the paper note for Liang Yue's paper doll. She only has this paper doll, which is harmless to her."
The third uncle said: "I knew that with you, Lao Xiao, I would definitely guarantee Liang Yue's safety."
Old Xiao smiled wryly and said, "Don't make fun of me, the old man. If I had the ability, I would have left with Yue girl."
I waved my hand: "Let's stop talking about this, let's go to Sister Hua now and let her continue to contact the people in Shennvzhai. I just don't know how we can follow them without being discovered."
The third uncle shook his head and smacked his lips: "Before I came, I thought about whether I should go to the old horse to bring the iron pillar, but we came by train and the road was not convenient, so I gave up this idea. If the iron pillar It’s good that Zhu is here, and I’m sure we can track down that group of people and find the Goddess Village.”
Old Xiao was taken aback: "Tie Zhu? Who is Tie Zhu?"
I explained to him: "Tie Zhu is one of my dogs, and his tracking skills are top-notch."
Speaking of Tie Zhu, Tie Zhu caused trouble everywhere at that time, so I handed him over to Ma Di, who sent Tie Zhu to a training ground, saying that he would help me train a god dog.After that, I just took the time to call Ma Su and asked about Tie Zhu, and he told me that Tie Zhu was fine and reassured me.In order to train it better, I absolutely cannot go to see it.
So even though I missed Tie Zhu very much, I had to resist not seeing it.As for how Tie Zhu has been trained now, I don't know.I didn't remember it until my third uncle mentioned it today, and I haven't seen it for half a year.
Old Xiao heard that Tie Zhu was a dog, but his eyes lit up, and he said, "This reminds me that there are forest farms everywhere here. As long as you go into the mountains, it's easy to get lost, so everyone here has dogs. The running dogs here are not bad at tracking, no matter how complicated the forest is, they can bring you out. As long as we are willing to pay and buy a good dog at a high price, it should not be difficult to do."
When the third uncle heard it, he said: "That's easy. I can ask Sister Hua to spread out some of the rouge she smeared when they came, and then let the dog smell the rouge and chase them. gone."
Old Xiao nodded: "That's a good idea, just the fragrance on Sister Hua's body, in fact, we don't need a dog, we can chase after it by smelling it."
Unexpectedly, Lao Xiao, who seemed calm and introverted, would often say such witty words, which once again aroused laughter in the room.
That night, we stayed there without further ado, and we started to split up early the next morning.
The third uncle gave Lao Xiao 2000 yuan to buy a dog, and the third uncle and I went to find Sister Hua.
Sister Hua was probably really scared of being slapped by the third uncle. After hearing that we let her continue to trade with the people in Shennvzhai, she hurriedly waved her hands and said that she would never do it again.
We talked about it to make her understand that she was doing us a favour.Only then did she agree, saying that she still had some goods in hand, and they could collect them.
We explained the other details to her again, and Sister Hua agreed, but she said that the group didn't come every day, and the next time they came, they would have to come early the next morning.
Although we were anxious and wished we could go to the Goddess Village immediately, we had no other choice but to wait another day in Sister Hua's shop.This is also good, and it can also give us more time to think about countermeasures comprehensively.
At noon, Lao Xiao really came back with a yellow dog.The dog looked very inconspicuous, it was a kind of local native dog, also called running mountain dog.It is said that a trained adult dog can run several hills a day.
Communication here is inconvenient. If you want to contact people who are separated by several hills, you can also use this kind of running dog to convey information.
On the same day, we met again to study, and prepared some things to be used in the mountains, and the rest of the time was to recharge our batteries.
In the early morning of the next day, I really heard the voice of Sister Hua talking below.She may have raised her voice on purpose, and we could hear it clearly when we opened the door on the second floor.
At the beginning, it was Sister Hua who handed over the money and delivered the goods to them.Later, I heard Sister Hua screaming in surprise, and heard the sound of several men sneezing, and then there was no movement.
We went downstairs and found that Sister Hua was the only one left in the front hall.Seeing us coming down, Sister Hua said, "Okay, I've finished what you told me. I deliberately knocked over a box of rouge powder and spilled all three of them."
The third uncle nodded in satisfaction, took out 500 yuan and handed it over: "Sister Hua, you did a good job. This is yours. Sell us the rest of your rouge powder."
After some excuses, Sister Hua readily accepted it.
The three of us packed up our things, led the running mountain dog, and immediately left Sister Hua's shop, tracking down the mountain.
The rouge powder that Sister Hua used had a strange fragrance, so fragrant that my head hurt after smelling it for a long time.So it is easier to track.
At intervals, we gave the coyote a smell of the rouge powder, and the dog kept rushing forward after smelling the smell.We had to hold it back, not daring to let it rush too hard, otherwise our target would be easily exposed.
After we left the salt water town, we plunged into the nearby mountains.
There are several large forest farms here, which are famous all over the country.Except for the planned forest farm, the rest is full of trees and jungles.It is no exaggeration to say that if no one leads the way, you will lose your way if you walk a few miles.
We also made all the preparations, brought enough dry food and things for camping, as well as compass and other supplies, just in case.
The three people from Goddess Village in front were not moving slowly.We tracked them down and didn't even see their shadow.I don't know if we can successfully find the Goddess Village with this method.
Fortunately, the running coyote we brought with us turned out surprisingly well.
It smelled of Sister Hua's rouge powder, and it didn't take much effort to track it all the way.My third uncle and I each carried a hatchet in our hands, and carved marks on the trees we passed.
But when we entered the deep mountains, the situation was not optimistic.First of all, the road under our feet has become rough and difficult, and many places are still covered with thorns.Such a road cannot be called a road at all, it is completely walking through the bushes in the mountains.
After entering the mountain, there are all kinds of trees all around, and those trees traverse the entire mountain area.There was a strong smell of tree oil in the air.
Chapter 388
The smell of tree oil came straight to the nose, and the third uncle muttered as he walked: "Old Xiao, there is no way at all. We put all our hopes on a dog, isn't it a little rash?"
Sure enough, as soon as the third uncle's words fell, the running mountain dog that had been running happily also slowed down in front, lowered its head and smelled the smell, and stagnated.
Lao Xiao shook his head and said, "Apart from this, is there any other way we can do it? I think the smell of tree oil here is too strong now. It may have diluted the smell of the rouge powder a lot, so the dog's The sense of smell has been affected. But this road should be fine, I walked a similar road when I came out of Shennvzhai. The wild Jianglong tree was found in this mountain."
After sniffing for a while, the coyote seemed to have determined its direction, and ran forward again.
The third uncle regained his energy at this moment, pulled Lao Xiao and asked, "Old Xiao, can you still find that Jianglongmu tree? go."
I complained to my third uncle angrily: "Li Dagang, what time is it, can you stop thinking about making money? Why don't you go find the Jianglong tree by yourself, and you won't need to go to the Goddess Village."
The third uncle said with a playful smile: "Nephew, what are you talking about? Is your third uncle a person who is greedy for money?"
I nodded: "Don't say it, you really are."
I chased after Lao Xiao who was leading the dog, and ran forward.The third uncle kept nagging behind me: "Nephew, how can you look at me like that? Is your third uncle such a person in your eyes... I wondered if it was just passing by, and it would not delay Let's go to the Goddess Village... Hey, stop for me, let's talk and talk..."
I ignored him angrily, and Lao Xiao had no choice but to turn around and say, "Master Li, I made a mark at the Jianglongmu tree. When we rescue girl Yue, I promise to take you to find that tree. Now is really not the time." what……"
The third uncle chuckled: "I didn't mean to look for it now, you two know how to arrange me. Let me tell you, nephew, that a wooden sword made of that dragon wood is a hundred times stronger than an ordinary peach wood sword. At that time, your third uncle and I will be at least three levels higher."
We teased the third uncle a few more words, and then ran forward with the running mountain dog.
Now he ran out on the mountain road for more than ten miles in one breath, and the surrounding environment became more and more complicated. Not only were the trees still there, but the surroundings were also surrounded by mountains.
The running coyote followed here, smelled it around, whimpered a few times, then lay down on the ground, saying nothing and not going any further.
Old Xiao stepped forward to pet the dog, and said, "It seems that the smell of rouge powder has almost dissipated here. The running mountain dog may have lost its target."
"Ah, what should I do then?" I looked around, a little anxious.
We came here by relying on that running mountain dog, and now it has lost its target, and the three of us have also lost our direction.
Old Xiao waved his hand: "Don't worry, I seem to have a little impression of this place. Don't move here, wait for me."
As he said that, Lao Xiao ran forward for a while, observed the surrounding environment left and right, and suddenly shouted: "I remembered, this is the place, I know how to get there."
Lao Xiao's shout lifted our spirits, and we ran over with the dog.
Lao Xiao pointed to a pine forest in front and said, "See, if I remember correctly, you should be able to reach the Goddess Village through the pine forest in front of you."
The third uncle nodded: "Then let's go over and have a look."
Under the leadership of Lao Xiao, we got into the pine forest.The pine forest is very extensive, and it took us nearly half an hour to walk through the forest.
As soon as we emerged from the forest, Lao Xiao excitedly pointed to the front and shouted: "Yes, yes, look, it's over there."
The third uncle and I looked in the direction of Lao Xiao's finger. After almost a day of driving, it was already close to dusk.The direction of Lao Xiao's finger should be the west.A round of setting sun hung in the sky, and under the rays of the sun, the sky seemed to be on fire.There were large chunks of white clouds floating in the sky, and they were as bright red as flames under the reflection of the setting sun.
Under the light of the setting sun, one can vaguely see the outlines of houses layered upon layer.
Lao Xiao pointed to the house and said: "See, that's the area of the Goddess Village. But Wangshan ran to death, I guess it should take more than an hour to walk from the Goddess Village. And if you want to enter the Goddess Village In the central area of the village, we still need to pass the most important pass, which is their mother-in-law temple."
"Mother-in-law Temple? What is that place?"
Lao Xiao explained: "How should I put it... Do you know Nantianmen? That is the gate of Tiangong. This mother-in-law temple is the gate of the Goddess Village. I couldn't enter the Goddess Village at that time because I was blocked in the Mother-in-law Temple."
"We've already arrived here, so we have to try anyway. Didn't you say that there is a way for us to sneak into the Goddess Village this time?" I asked.
Old Xiao didn't say yes or no, but just waved his hand: "Let's go, let's find the mother-in-law temple first."
When we get here, no matter what happens, we have to listen to Lao Xiao.Even the third uncle, who always went his own way, had to listen to Lao Xiao's command this time.Old Xiao led us to the west along the edge of the pine forest.
After turning over two more mounds, the coyote, which had been quiet all the time, suddenly became excited again.
The running mountain dog is very dedicated, and just lost the target of tracking, it looks very dull.Suddenly excited, he rushed straight ahead, if it wasn't for the dog leash in Lao Xiao's hand, he would have run over.But the dog had been trained not to bark despite spotting the target.
Apparently, the running coyote found the target again.And this time it is estimated that the distance to the target is very close, so the running coyote will smell their scent.
We hurriedly bent down and moved forward slowly.
After touching a distance of more than ten meters, a lonely small temple appeared in front of him.
In front of the small temple, there were three people standing with their backs to us, facing the small temple.They stood straight on the spot, motionless, like sculptures, and they didn't know how long they had been standing.
Old Xiao motioned us to squat down, and at the same time calmed down the running mountain dog.That dog has been trained, and Lao Xiao also bought it at a high price, and his performance is really different, he is very able to receive the owner's information, not as rash as Tie Zhu.
