Traveling through the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, a story of survival in troubled tim

With someone leading the way, the journey became much faster.

Not to mention, we encountered several collapsed areas along the way. I heard that they were caused by landslides due to the rain a few days ago.

"This little girl is also your girl..."

Ever since I set foot in the Bashu area, I've noticed that the people here speak with an accent, which is completely different from the one they speak in Luoyang.

She was born and raised in Luoyang.

A few years ago, her eldest brother went out to travel and unconsciously spoke with an accent. She wondered where he learned this accent.

Come on, now we have found the source. This is the fragrance of my hometown.

"Yes, she's my sister..."

When in Rome, do as the Romans do. Wen Yao responded calmly and naturally using the local accent.

"Since she was born, my sister has never left home, let alone returned to the clan. I hope the clan members will take good care of her from now on."

The two of them started chatting naturally, talking to each other.

We chatted all the way and soon arrived at our destination.

Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar scenery in front of him, Wen Yao couldn't help but feel a lot of emotions in his heart.

This is his hometown and his roots.

Although I have been away for many years, the love and nostalgia for my hometown always linger in my heart.

Now that I am finally back, the joy in my heart is beyond words.

For my sister who has never been back to her hometown, everything here is so fresh and interesting.

She looked around curiously, her eyes full of longing and expectation for this land.

With the warm reception from the tribesmen, the brother and sister felt the strong family love and warmth.

They will spend a wonderful time here, feel the customs and culture of their hometown, and regain the long-lost family affection.

Wen Yao was more interested in finding out about the clan's affairs.

The one called Da Niu was more interested in finding out new things happening outside and was full of curiosity about the outside world.

"Brother, your accent is really good. There's not even a Luoyang accent at all..."

Wenshu teased.

"Xiang Yin, what is Xiang Yin?"

The kindhearted Big Ox leading the way suddenly raised his voice and said, "You kid, you really don't know how precious food is if you don't manage the household!"

A hint of dissatisfaction flashed in Da Niu's eyes, and there was a bit more blame in his look towards Wen Shu.

Wen Shu was a little overwhelmed. She didn't understand why what she had just said had caused such a strong reaction from Da Niu. Although Da Niu didn't show any obvious hostility, she could sense a sense of dissatisfaction with her from his tone.

Feeling very confused and aggrieved, Wen Shu turned to her eldest brother, Wen Yao, for help. However, Wen Yao also looked bewildered and didn't seem to know what had happened.

Da Niu continued, "You kid, you really don't know how precious food is if you don't manage the household. I don't know why, but food is being bought up everywhere this year. Those landless tenants can't afford to eat, so they have no choice but to sell their children..."

"Hmph, you can't do that." Da Niu looked at Wen Shu with a serious expression on his face, as if he was teaching an ignorant child a lesson.

"Xiang Yin?"

"A local accent?"

Liu Yun pondered the two words over and over in his mouth, shook his head, and a helpless look appeared on his face. He seemed to understand something, but he was not completely sure.

"Girl, this fellow has no ill intentions. He may have misunderstood you..."

After saying this, he raised his voice slightly so that everyone could hear.

"Daniu, you misheard. The girl from the Wen family said it was her hometown accent. The hometown accent doesn't mean what you think it means."

After saying this, Wen Yao suddenly realized.

He quickly explained to Wenshu.

It turns out that this accent is not the same as that accent.

Before I knew it, a thin mist was lingering in the jungle, and the morning light penetrated the mist, scattering stars to the world.

The village hidden in the mountains and forests adds a mysterious and hazy beauty.

The surrounding pine trees were lush and green, reaching into the sky, but the road ahead suddenly stopped and disappeared, as if it had been swallowed up by nature.

There was only a narrow path left, barely wide enough for three people to walk side by side, with steep cliffs on both sides, which was daunting.

"Everyone be careful, we're almost home.

The road ahead is narrower and more difficult to walk on. For safety, everyone must dismount and walk. As the voice rang out, everyone dismounted, holding the reins and moving forward cautiously.

Those who were originally sitting in the carriages had to get off and walk. Even the sleeping little Seventh and Eighth were carried out of the carriage and walked together.

"When you walk, you must pay attention to your feet. Even though the ground looks clean and tidy and there is not much mud, it is actually wet with dew since early in the morning.

There is abundant rainfall and fog here all year round, and a thin layer of moss forms on the ground.

If you are not careful, you may slip and fall off the cliff, so everyone must be extra careful! "

"Brother Daniel didn't say that..."

Liu Yun was walking in front at this time. He waved the sword behind him on the ground a few times, and dents half the size of a fingernail appeared on the stones on the ground, lying across the road in a random and crooked manner.

I don't know if Da Niu went to the village to report, because he had disappeared long ago.

"Sir, this road is narrow and slippery, and there are cliffs thousands of feet high around us. If you fall down without being careful, there will be no trace of your body left..."

When Wen Shu heard this, she tried hard to suppress her inner fear. She gripped the reins in her hands until they turned white. She took a small step to the side and stretched her neck to see the sea of ​​clouds.

Even so, Wen Shu kicked the stone under her feet away.

The stone was like falling into a deep pool; only the sound was heard but no trace was seen.

Wen Shu's heart tightened involuntarily, thinking that if he fell down, wouldn't he be broken into pieces?

She quickly retracted her outstretched foot.

"You! You..."

Wen Yao thought that everyone was bored on the way, and seeing that Wen Shu's actions were not dangerous, he did not stop her, but just shook his head helplessly.

"Sir, the luggage in the back has been unloaded, and the young master and the ladies have also gotten off the car..."

Wenshu heard the sound and turned around to see that little Laoba was being held by the wet nurse, while little Laoqi was being held in the arms of a strong old woman, yawning. After taking a look, Wenshu continued to curl up and sleep.

"First, send a few steady men to escort the young men and women through safely. I'll stay behind to hold the line."

Liu Yun moved quickly and as soon as he finished speaking, several people quickly stood in two rows on both sides of the road, forming a solid pedestrian guardrail.

Wen Yao stood aside, watching Junshu's gestures on the mountainside, and then gave the order, "Move out, enter the village."

A large group of people, led by Wen Yao, marched in orderly steps towards the mountains.

Wen Shu followed the team closely, secretly estimating that she had walked about thirty meters.

She muttered to herself, "This so-called entering the village should be different from what I imagined, right?

After all, this is the Wen family's territory. Their ancestors were famous, so how could they have fallen to the point of occupying the mountains and becoming bandits? "Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel full of anticipation for the place she was about to arrive at.

After all, for a literati, face and reputation are more important than anything else.

If any blind descendant dares to do something that goes against his ancestors, he will definitely be unacceptable to the family.

As a large family with a long history, the Wen family would naturally not do such a thing easily.
