The strongman's wife who traveled through time and space and became a young general
Chapter 60: Nalan Village's Back Road
After a night's rest, Lin Qiuer got up refreshed, had a simple breakfast with her family, and enjoyed this rare reunion time.
After dinner, under the guidance of the second brother Lin Nanshan, Lin Nanye and I went to meet several uncles who were exploring the village. The group walked through a bush beside an uninhabited house at the innermost part of the village, and followed a small path at the back that was only wide enough for one person to pass, heading towards the depths of the Nalan Mountains.
Lin Qiuer's brows were tightly furrowed since she entered the path. When everyone arrived at the wooden house which was only fifty miles away from the village, she saw the smug looks on the faces of several uncles.
She asked, "Is this the escape route you have explored for so many days?"
"Qiu'er, what's wrong? Is this road bad?" a square-faced man asked in confusion.
He thought this road was very good. It was just behind the village and was easy to walk on, making it very suitable for the elderly, the weak, the sick and the disabled.
"Hey, don't blame you, blame me. I didn't explain it clearly." Lin Qiu'er said with a look of self-blame, and then changed the subject and pointed out the problem, "You think this road is good? The enemy is not stupid. Do you think they won't chase into the Nalan Mountains after they find that there is no one in the village?"
Several uncles and aunts of the same generation as the witch doctor felt embarrassed after being spoken to so mercilessly by Lin Qiuer, and couldn't help but get a little angry.
"Then what do you say we should do?" someone asked angrily.
“This road is like telling the enemy, I am going this way, come and catch me.
It is only a matter of time before the enemy catches up with us, and then everyone in the village will be killed." Lin Qiuer said seriously the seriousness of the matter, "You know this is a way to escape, not a way to go out and play in the Nalan Mountains."
Seeing that everyone still didn't understand, Lin Qiuer could only take them around again and found a secret path that was not easily discovered.
Even if the enemy racked their brains, they would never have thought that they would go down to the bottom of the cliff and hide there.
This is also due to the fact that the people of Nalan Village are naturally strong, so they can implement the practice of several people pulling a large basket and lowering men, women, old and young off the cliff.
In order to increase the difficulty for the enemy to find them, Lin Qiuer also found another way to confuse the vision.
Lin Qiuer led everyone to set up a bunch of traps on the road to confuse the vision, including poisonous barriers, pits buried with spikes, flying arrows blocking the road, mud pits, etc.
This made all the uncles and aunts who came along secretly smack their lips in amazement, saying that it was an eye-opener, and at the same time they felt a chill on their backs.
Later, Lin Nanye was asked to go back to the village and gather all the men. Lin Qiuer taught them how to climb on the cliff and made several rattan baskets woven with rattan strips as thick as a child's arm.
After learning the climbing techniques on the cliff, I started practicing lowering people to the bottom of the cliff.
The last few people slid down the cliff with the help of safety vines. Then they built a large wooden house at the bottom of the cliff, which was equipped with many wooden beds, wooden chairs, stone tables and fire pits.
Everyone was deeply impressed by Lin Qiuer's intelligence and talent. They shut their mouths and no longer raised any doubts.
Because of the escape route arrangements made earlier, when Lin Qiuer asked the entire village to conduct an escape drill, these people took the initiative to come forward and persuade their family members.
The drill began with a puff of green smoke rising from the entrance of the village, and the third brother led a few enemies to pretend to be an enemy invasion.
At the beginning, everyone was still relaxed, thinking it was just a game. But as the atmosphere of the drill deepened, they were gradually made nervous by Lin Qiuer and others, and they dared not stop for a moment to escape.
After the drill was over and everyone returned to the village, they truly experienced the horror of an attack by foreign enemies.
That night, many people had nightmares. In the dreams, the village was burned to ashes by a fire. They fled to the bottom of the cliff in a panic, and the enemy was behind them, grinning and hacking at them with knives.
This exercise also made Lin Youniang completely understand that in order to break the current predicament of Nalan Village, the only way to make changes is to take all the young people out to broaden their horizons, as Lin Qiuer said.
At the same time, these young people can also collect intelligence from all parties so that they don’t always remain blind.
So, Lin Youniang, as a witch doctor, convened a meeting of all members of Nalan Village.
She told everyone that Lin Qiuer wanted to open a shop in the county town and needed to bring unmarried men in the village down the mountain to help.
As soon as this was said, some people opposed it, while others agreed.
Lin Qiuer explained again that this was something that had to be done for the survival of the village.
If young people are not allowed to go out and see the world, learn various skills to enhance the strength of the village, and find their ideal partners to marry and have children, then Nalan Village will disappear sooner or later.
The old people who knew that it was becoming increasingly difficult for Nalan Village to have offspring knew in their hearts that Lin Qiuer was right, but at the same time they were reluctant to let their nephews and nephews leave home.
For a moment, the atmosphere at the scene was deadlocked.
"I am willing to go down the mountain with Qiu'er, and I also want to do my part for the survival of Nalan Village. Please help me, Grandpa." A young man who had just experienced life and death with Lin Qiu'er and was full of passion knelt down in front of his grandfather and begged.
As soon as these words were spoken, the sound of people kneeling on the ground was heard, followed by the uniform begging voices.
"Please help me, Grandpa and Grandma, Dad and Mom. I am willing to do my best for the survival of Nalan Village."
The elders present all had tears in their eyes. They were reluctant to let these remaining seedlings leave home, but seeing their firm determination, they felt extremely relieved and proud.
"Dear elders, please rest assured that Qiu'er will always put their safety first." Lin Qiu'er saw that the atmosphere at the scene had reached its climax, she took a deep breath and said.
At the insistence of the younger generation in the family, the elders bid farewell to the team that followed Lin Qiuer down the mountain with tears.
When their figures disappeared from sight, the old people at the scene began to beat their chests and stamp their feet, blaming each other for not stopping them and letting all the unmarried men leave the village.
"You're also silent. You said that my grandson has become successful. That's good." An old man complained.
"That's right. What are you talking about? You are the only one who has feelings for Nalan Village, don't we? Wuuuu, my little grandson~ Can grandma wait for you to come back~" An old lady with a head full of silver hair cried with full energy.
"You old woman, you are so mean. Why are you crying? You are the only one who loves your grandson, but don't I love my son? Wuuuu, my son~" Another old woman burst into tears.
For a moment, the scene was in chaos, with all kinds of crying and shouting intertwined.
Lin Youniang looked at this scene and shook her head. She was infected by the sad atmosphere and felt sad in her heart.
She quickly left the scene and walked back home. She needed to be alone and think carefully about the future of Nalan Village.
