Chapter 914 Gossip About Longevity

"This lake can let the dead rest in peace. Hey, don't you just bury those dead people in the lake?" Lu Xiufeng asked.

"Really." Miao Qingfeng said after being silent for a while, but the smile on his face disappeared and was replaced by seriousness.

"But, I remember that there are still a large number of tombs on that mountain." After hearing this, Yang Guanfeng pointed to the mountain diagonally opposite. They saw it when they went up last time, and they saw it when they went up this time. Miao Qingfeng also As I said, it is the place where the dead in the village are buried.

"Well, one is to look at the wishes of the deceased, and the other is to look at his identity."

"This depends on the identity, how do you say this?"

"Women are mostly buried in the lake, and men are mostly buried in the mountains." Miao Qingfeng said.

"What kind of burial?"

"Make a bamboo raft, let the dead lie on it, and then float quietly on the lake."

"And then leave it alone?"

"right."

"Well, speaking of being disrespectful to the dead, did they all end up in the belly of a fish?" Lu Xiufeng asked.

After he finished speaking, the corner of Yang Guanfeng's mouth twitched.

"You really dare to say anything!"

"Hehe, there's nothing wrong with this understanding. This way is like being in Tibet. They still hold sky burials. In the end, those eagles will deal with it, right?" Miao Qingfeng said, "Besides, now this kind of The custom is basically abolished, unless someone specifically asks for it, we will all bury it." Miao Qingfeng said.

"yes?"

"right."

"Oh, who was the last person buried in the lake, and when?"

"My impression is an old man in the village, about four months ago." Miao Qingfeng said.

"Well, okay, thank you." Lu Xiufeng said.

"It doesn't matter."

Gulu Gulu, the fish float moved.

"The fish is hooked.

"Lu Xiufeng shouted happily, raised his rod, and caught a fish more than a foot long. Under his eyes, the scales were shining brightly.

"Well, not bad, not bad." He smiled.

"Hey, how old was that old man when he died?"

"one hundred and two."

"Wow, longevity!" Lu Xiufeng exclaimed. "Are there many old people in your village?"

"Many, the environment in our village is good and the pace of life is slow. Basically, every family knows some medical skills and pays attention to health preservation, so there are a lot of people who live long lives. I haven't done any statistics, but I think the average life expectancy of people in our village is estimated to be Over ninety, like that old man, is actually not considered old." Miao Qingfeng said.

"I'm going, is it so powerful? Is there any unique secret? Hey, in the deep mountains and old forests, is there that kind of fairy grass that is said to be immortal after eating, such as thousand-year-old ginseng and ganoderma? "

Miao Qingfeng froze immediately after hearing this.

"Ahaha, I think Captain Lu, you have read too many typical novels and movies. How can there be such a thing?"

"There's none?"

"I don't know if there are other places. We don't have them in our stockade. Thousand-year-old ginseng and fleece-flower root, not to mention thousands of years, are hundred years old. They are very rare panacea, which can be called natural treasures. It's gone." Miao Qingfeng said.

"Hey, then why is there any kind of elixir in this place, after eating, it can prolong life and prevent all diseases?"

"Elixir, hahaha." Miao Qingfeng laughed after hearing this.

"How can there be such a thing? If it really exists, I will be the first to find a way to get it and eat it."

"Oh, tsk, to be honest, I'm under a lot of pressure at work, and I feel that my health is getting worse and worse. I don't think I can live to be a hundred years old, but I am grateful to be able to live to be eighty years old." Lu Xiufeng said.

"In my opinion, Captain Lu is the appearance of longevity." Miao Qingfeng said.

"Really, do you still read pictures?"

"Know a little bit, self-taught."

"Then look at him." Lu Xiufeng pointed to Yang Guanfeng.

"Captain Yang is also a long-lived person." Miao Qingfeng said with a smile.

Yang Guanfeng just smiled after hearing this, but didn't take it to heart, nor did he take it seriously.

"Hey, there's another fish biting the hook." Lu Xiufeng raised his fishing rod, and it was another big fish.

"Hey, today's luck is really good!"

"Hey, is this fish delicious?"

"It's delicious. It tastes very delicious when steamed, fried, or boiled. The fish we had a few times ago is like this." Miao Qingfeng said with a smile.

"That's good, let you have a taste of my craft today."

"Captain Lu is still a culinary expert?"

"I can't talk about being an expert, but I have a way of making fish. I will treat guests at noon. No, I will borrow flowers to present Buddha." Lu Xiufeng said.

"Mr. Miao, please give me credit."

"Okay, sure, sure." Miao Qingfeng said with a smile.

All morning, the three of them chatted and laughed, and basically didn't ask anything related to the case, but they talked a lot.

"Unexpectedly, brother Miao, your knowledge is so extraordinary, you must have been to many places, right?" It's only been a morning, and through in-depth communication and heart-to-heart communication, the title has changed, and I called my brother directly. .

"Brother won the prize."

"According to your knowledge, you must have been to many places, right?"

"Well, in fact, I go out a few times every year." Miao Qingfeng said.

"Oh! So, it's not that this village really doesn't communicate with the outside world, it's just that it rarely communicates with the outside world, right?"

"Yes, in today's society, there is no possibility of being completely isolated from the world. We are not the kind of peach blossoms that Tao Yuanming wrote about." Miao Qingfeng said with a smile.

"Yes, yes, if such a good place is really isolated from the world and does not communicate at all, it would be a pity for him. Hey, the scenery here is so beautiful, why don't you start a tourism and vacation project? Now this is very It’s hot, there are plenty of rich people outside, such a place without pollution, such a paradise, is very attractive to them.”

"Brother Lu, as for us, we just want to live in such a peaceful way and don't want to be disturbed by outsiders. In fact, this is a living habit passed down from generation to generation, and it has been integrated into our bones. I have been outside and been in contact with people in big cities. It is rich and colorful. At the beginning, I felt very fresh and exciting. It was better than in the stockade, but after a long time, I felt that the life in the stockade was better. We are self-sufficient, we grow and raise our own food, and we have When we are sick, we can diagnose and treat ourselves, the environment here is good, and the interpersonal relationship in the village is also good, very harmonious, not as indifferent as outside, what are you going to do outside, what are you doing with so much money?"

"Is there no one who wants to go out?" Yang Guanfeng interjected.

"Yes, why not? Everyone has their own ideas, no. Some people have gone out, but there are rules in our village. You can go out, and you can come back to visit your parents, but you can't bring people from outside. People who go out can no longer marry girls in the village, nor can they marry men in the village, unless both of them go out, and they have to be removed from the family tree." Miao Qingfeng.

"This, isn't this a little bit over?"

"However." Miao Qingfeng said with certainty.

"In the past few years I have been out, I have visited many places. Those once pure lands have become secular since they were commercialized. They have lost their original peace and simplicity. Most of the people who originally lived there have followed suit. They have changed. In fact, their lives are not so happy. I talked to them. They want to go back to the old life, but they can’t go back. It’s like a very clean tank. Water, you put a few drops of ink into it, it’s easy when you drop them in, but if you want to separate them and restore them to their original cleanness, then it’s difficult, basically impossible .” Miao Qingfeng said.

"I love this village very much. This is my hometown. I hope it can continue to maintain this simplicity, this nostalgic feeling, and not be affected by the materialism outside." When he said these words, he was very serious and serious of.

"Well, I can understand your thoughts." Lu Xiufeng patted him on the shoulder.

In fact, he has also been to many places, such as Shangri-La, such as the ancient city of Fenghuang. What is it like now? There is no way to make it up again.

"The Miao patriarch thinks so too, right?"

"Yes, the patriarch thinks so and does so. He is a staunch enforcer and defender of the ancient rules." Miao Qingfeng said.

"Sometimes, even a little unreasonable."

"Really, if you really meet him when he is unreasonable, don't you hate him?"

"How is it possible? In fact, some people in the village left because of the patriarch." Miao Qingfeng said, "He will never be accommodating on some issues."

"Ah, never back down on matters of principle?"

"right."

"People who stick to principles are very rare anywhere," Lu Xiufeng said.

"Yes!"

"Okay, I'll stop here this morning, thank you."

"You're welcome."

"Don't forget to eat fish at noon, it would be even better if you can bring two bottles."

"must."

The two of them carried bamboo baskets, which contained a few fish caught this morning. After returning to their residence, Lu Xiufeng really got busy, packing up the fish and preparing to make lunch.

"You really can, entertain them with fish from others."

"Then what should I do? I can't invite them out for dinner, right? It's five hours away from the nearest restaurant, right?"

"Five and a half."

"That's right, borrowing flowers to offer Buddha, besides, my method is different from theirs, just look at it!"

Lu Xiufeng was busy tinkling the bell.

At noon, Miao Qingfeng came to their residence with a jar of wine, and saw several dishes on the table, two of which were fish, one was braised in soy sauce, and the other was boiled, exuding an attractive aroma , the other two dishes are fried green vegetables.
