Episode 10 Chapter 546

Chapter 546

For a remote and isolated village, it is difficult to see outsiders, and Tang Yin and Yin Rou look too embarrassed, with unkempt hair and rags, like two savages***

Under the gaze of the villagers, Tang Yin and Yin Rou also felt awkward. Yin Rou whispered: "It seems that the people here don't seem to welcome us."

Tang Yin was amused and said with a smile: "We must be treated as unwanted guests." As he spoke, he walked up to an old man, bowed his hands very politely, and asked with a smile: "Old man, may I ask..."

As soon as he spoke, the old man backed away as if he was frightened, and ran back to his courtyard. With a bang, the courtyard door was slammed shut, and at the same time there was the sound of the door bolt being inserted.

The smile on Tang Yin's face froze. He turned around and looked at Yin Rou helplessly. Then he raised his eyes and looked at the other old people. As a result, everyone's reaction was similar to that of the old man. They all ran back to their homes as if they had seen a ghost and opened the door. Lock up tightly

This situation made Tang Yin and Yin Rou almost wonder if they had turned into monsters now.

At this time, a young man carrying a hoe came over.

The young man's legs and feet were a bit bad and he limped when he walked. When he saw Tang Yin and Yin Rou, his face showed surprise and astonishment, but he was not afraid to avoid them like the elders in the village. Less than

Finally seeing a normal person, Tang Yin quickened his pace, walked forward, raised his hands to the young man and said, "Little brother, please stay."

The young man stopped a long way away from Tang Yin. Although he did not hide, his eyes were still wary as he looked at Tang Yin. He asked solemnly: "You...are you..."

"Don't be afraid, little brother, we just happened to pass by here." Tang Yin smiled kindly.

When he heard that he was passing by, the young man was obviously relieved, and his guarded affection was relieved a lot. He walked up to Tang Yin, with a simple smile on his face, and said, "If you don't tell me, I thought you two were bandits."

While talking, he looked at Yin Rou behind Tang Yin. Yin Rou now looked similar to Tang Yin. Her face was streaked with black and white, and her hair was falling down. She couldn't tell whether she was a boy or a girl.

Tang Yin looked down at himself, shrugged helplessly, and asked, "Little brother, what is the name of this village?"

"Wujiazhuang" the young man said: "The people in this village are basically surnamed Wu. My name is Wu Shi, and everyone calls me Shitou." The young man is very talkative and straightforward. He doesn't need Tang Yin to ask questions, but first reports his family background.

Tang Yin was amused. This young man was really innocent. He thought for a moment and then asked: "Which country is this...in?"

"Ah?" The young man was dumbfounded by his question. He didn't even know which country he was in. The young man was stunned for a while, and then said with a smile: "This is the Jade Country."

Hehe. Tang Yin and Yin Rou were shocked. In the past month, the two of them actually walked from the Feng Kingdom to the Jade Kingdom. It was incredible. Looking at their surprised expressions, the young man smiled and asked, "Listen to the accent." , you don’t look like someone from the Jade Kingdom, where did you come from?”

"Wind Country"

"Feng Country?" The young man's eyes lit up, with a thick smile on his face, and he said excitedly: "It turns out that he is from the Feng Country." Feng and Yu are allies, and the monarchs of the two countries are still engaged, so the jade man has a strong relationship with Feng Country. People have a natural sense of closeness

"You two haven't eaten yet? Let's go and sit at my little brother's house," the young man greeted enthusiastically.

Tang Yin rubbed his hands and said, "Then why are you so embarrassed to bother me?"

A young man named Wu Shi said: "It's not easy to go out, so you're welcome. Besides, you two are both wind people. We are all one family."

As he spoke, he shouted loudly to the surroundings: "Don't be afraid, they are not bandits, they are just passers-by who happened to pass by our village, or they are from Feng Country."

Following his shout, the doors that had been closed tightly on both sides of the village road opened one after another. The old people who had been frightened back home all walked out of their homes again. People were whispering to each other, pointing at Tang Yin and Yin Rou, and they didn't know. They were discussing something, but the hostility on people's faces had been wiped away.

"There are very few outsiders in the village. Everyone may think you are bandits." Wu Shi smiled at Tang Yin and Yin Rou, and continued: "This eldest brother and this one..." He originally wanted to call Yin Rou little brother, It can be seen that her dirty clothes look like a skirt, and I don't know what to call her.

Tang Yin continued: "My name is Tang Chu, and this is my wife, Yin Qing." He casually thought of a pseudonym for Yin Rou. Yin Rou blushed, not because of the pseudonym Tang Yin gave her, but because of the pseudonym Tang Yin gave her. title

"It turns out to be Madam-in-law. Sorry, sorry, let's go quickly. My wife must have prepared the food now." Wu Shi waved to Tang Yin and Yin Rou.

Hearing that he spoke politely and politely, not unlike an ordinary village man, Tang Yin asked curiously: "Has Brother Wu always farmed in the village?"

Wu Shi waved his hand and said: "I studied for a few years and then joined the army. Then my leg was injured. I could no longer stay in the Chinese army and had no choice but to return to my hometown to farm." As he spoke, he also knocked on his lameness. the leg

He said it very easily, but Yin Rou felt sad for such a kind young man. Now he is lame. How will he live in the future? She whispered: "Soldiers who have been injured on the battlefield should receive good care."

Wu Shi couldn't see Yin Rou's appearance clearly, but when he heard her voice, he couldn't help but froze, and secretly said a beautiful sound, like a silver bell.

He scratched his hair and said with a silly smile: "The imperial court has taken good care of us wounded soldiers. Now not only the land tax is waived, but all taxes are also waived. Even if the land planted is less than others, the remaining harvest is greater than others. A lot more”

Tang Yin nodded in understanding. The Jade Kingdom's court has always implemented benevolent governance and implemented the policy of governing the country with gentleness. He heard Wu Shi mention bandits more than once and asked casually: "Brother Wu, are there many bandits in this area? Why?" Don’t report to the officials for encirclement and suppression?”

Wu Shi sighed and said: "I reported it to the officials, but it was useless. Longmen Mountain is too big and boundless. The bandits are hiding. Where can the officials and soldiers go to find them? As soon as the officials and soldiers leave, they will come back and rob more than They were still fierce before, but the government couldn't do anything about them."

It turns out that this is Longmen Mountain. Tang Yin didn't know until now that what he and Yin Rou passed through was Longmen Mountain. He had only seen this name on a map before. It was Longmen Mountain that separated the southern border between Jade Kingdom and Mo Di.

"What city is closest to here?"

Wu Shi said without thinking: "The nearest one is Daping City, but it's also a hundred or two hundred miles from our Wujiazhuang to Daping City."

Tang Yin responded, knowing that as long as he entered the city and found the official office of the Jade Kingdom, everything would be easy. Not only could he contact the Jade Kingdom's court, he could also contact the Sanshui Army and Feiying stationed in the Jade Kingdom. The army came to pick him up

While talking, Wu Shi took Tang Yin and Yin Rou back to his home

This is a small courtyard located at the edge of the village. The courtyard wall is a wooden fence about half a person high. Looking inside, there is a small adobe house in the courtyard. In the courtyard, there are also some chickens, ducks and other poultry.

"I'm back," Wu Shi opened the courtyard door, shouted, and let Tang Yin and Yin Rou into the courtyard.

As soon as they came in, a young woman walked out of the adobe house. She had an average appearance and was about the same age as Wu Shi. The clothes she was wearing were worn out, but she was very clean. She looked very neat.

Obviously, this was Wu Shi's wife. When she saw that Wu Shi had brought back two dirty beggars who looked like they were fleeing from poverty, the young woman was stunned and asked, "Who are these two..."

"It's Feng Ren," Wu Shi said: "These two elder brothers and sisters happened to pass by our village. Before they had dinner, I took them back to our home."

After a pause, he said again: "Xiujun, go and boil some water, let the eldest brother and sister-in-law clean themselves, and bring over two sets of clean clothes by the way."

The young woman was a little reluctant. After all, she was not a relative or a friend, and her family was not rich, so why did she give away clothes and invite people to eat? She took out a small cloth bag from her arms and opened it. It was full of sparkling gold and jade jewelry. She took out a gold hairpin and handed it to the young woman. She said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, I take the liberty to ask for mercy. This belongs to my husband and me." "A little thought." When she spoke, she glanced at Tang Yin beside her.

The jewelry on Yin Rou's body is not an ordinary object. Even a gold hairpin is carefully carved by skilled craftsmen. It not only has a unique and beautiful appearance, but is also inlaid with several crystal clear gems. It is worth a thousand gold to describe it. Too much

The young woman had never seen such an exquisite and beautiful hairpin in her life. Her eyes were almost straight, and she couldn't help but reach out to pick it up. At this time, Wu Shi stepped forward quickly, opened her outstretched hand, and looked at her. With an angry look on his face, he said in a deep voice: "The Feng Kingdom owes a debt of gratitude to the Jade Kingdom. The Feng people and the Jade people are one family. I just treated my elder brother and sister-in-law to some simple meals. You still want other people's things, and your conscience has been eaten by a dog?"

The young woman's face turned red after being scolded by him, with tears in her eyes. She rubbed the back of her hands that had been reddened by the beating, turned around angrily and ran into the house.

Wu Shi glared at her fiercely, then turned around and smiled apologetically at Tang Yin and Yin Rou, and said: "Brother and sister-in-law, I'm really sorry. My wife is ignorant and has never seen the world. I have offended something. Brother and sister-in-law, please don't take offense. "

When he said this, Tang Yin and Yin Rou felt embarrassed. Yin Rou looked at the gold hairpin in her hand and said, "I sincerely want to give this hairpin to my sister-in-law. Brother Wu misunderstood..."

"If it weren't for the Feng Kingdom, the Jade Kingdom would have been destroyed. My leg... was also crippled by Mo people at that time. The Feng Kingdom not only saved the Jade Kingdom, but also avenged me. Today, I can only It’s already embarrassing to treat two people with simple meals, so how can I still ask for something from my elder brother and sister-in-law?”

Yin Rou still wanted to speak, but was stopped by Tang Yin, who said with a smile: "Since Brother Wu has said so, let's not let down Brother Wu's kindness and put the things away."
