C1434

For a remote and secluded village, it was hard to see outsiders, and Tang Yin and Yin Rou's appearance was too miserable. Their hair was messy, and their clothes were torn to shreds, they looked like two barbarians.

Under the villagers' watchful eyes, Tang Yin and Yin Rou felt extremely awkward. Yin Rou said softly: "It looks like the people here don't really welcome us here."

Tang Yin was amused, and laughed: "I guess we are treated as uninvited guests." As he spoke, he walked up to an old man and clasped his hands in a very polite manner. With a smile, he asked, "Elder, may I ask ?"

His words had just left his mouth when the old man retreated as if he was frightened by something. He ran back to his own yard like a wisp of smoke, and with a clang, the door was slammed shut, and at the same time the sound of the door being latched could be heard.

Tang Yin's smile froze, she turned and looked at Yin Rou, then turned and looked at the other elders. As a result, everyone reacted the same as the old man. They all ran back to their respective homes as if they had seen a ghost, closing the doors tightly behind them.

This scene made Tang Yin and Yin Rou almost want to suspect whether or not they had become demons.

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

When he saw Tang Yin and Yin Rou, his face revealed astonishment and astonishment, but he did not avoid them like the village elders did.

Finally seeing someone who was a little more normal, Tang Yin quickened his pace, walked up, and clasped his hands at the young man: "Little brother, please wait."

The young man stopped a good distance away from Tang Yin. Although he did not dodge, his gaze towards Tang Yin was still cautious. His face was solemn as he asked, "You ?" "You are ?"

"Don't be afraid little brother, we just happened to pass by." Tang Yin revealed a kind smile.

Upon hearing him say that he was just passing by, the young man obviously heaved a sigh of relief, and the deep feelings he had for Tang Yin loosened up a lot. He walked over to Tang Yin with a simple and honest smile, and said: "If you didn't say it, I would have thought you two were bandits!"

While speaking, he looked at Yin Rou who was behind Tang Yin. Yin Rou's current appearance was about the same as Tang Yin's. His face was streaked with black and his hair was scattered all over, it was hard to tell if he was a man or a woman.

Tang Yin looked down at himself and shrugged helplessly. He asked: "Little brother, what's the name of this village?"

"Wu Manor." The young man replied: "Basically, everyone in the village has the surname Wu. My name is Wu Shi, everyone calls me Shitou!" The young people were talkative, and straightforward. Tang Yin did not need to ask, for he would first report his background.

Tang Yin was amused, this young man was really simple! He thought for a moment, then asked, "This place is... Which country is it within? "

"Huh?" The young man was dumbfounded and tongue-tied by his question. He didn't even know which country he was in! The young man was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile: "This place is called Yu Country."

Heh! Tang Yin and Yin Rou were shocked. In the past month, the two of them actually went from the Feng Country to the level of Yu Country. Looking at their expressions of surprise, the young man laughed and asked: "Hearing your accent, you don't seem like a person from the Yu Country. Where did you come from?"

"Feng Country!"

"Feng Country?" The young man's eyes lit up, the smile on his face became even wider, and he said excitedly: "So it's someone from the Feng Country!" The two kingdoms of the two kingdoms were allied, the monarchs of the two kingdoms even had engagements with each other. Therefore, the Jade Dwellers had a natural affinity with Feng Zhenren.

"Have the two of you eaten yet? "Come, let's go to my house and have a seat!" The young man greeted him warmly.

Tang Yin rubbed his hands together, and said: "Then how can I be so embarrassed to disturb you!"

The young man called Wu Shi said: "It's not easy to go out, there's no need to be courteous, furthermore, you two are famous people, we are family!"

As he spoke, he looked around and shouted loudly, "Everyone, don't be afraid, the two of them are not bandits. Are they people who just happened to pass by our village, or are they from the Feng Country?"

Following his shout, the doors on both sides of the road that were tightly shut opened, the elders that were scared to go home all walked out, they whispered to each other and pointed at Tang Yin and the others, but no one knew what they were talking about, but the hostility on their faces had been wiped away.

"There are very few outsiders in the village. Everyone probably thinks of you as bandits." Wu Shi smiled at Tang Yin and, and continued to speak. "This big brother and this one ?" He had originally wanted to call Yin Rou his little brother, but seeing that her clothes were like a skirt filled with filth, he didn't know what to call her.

Tang Yin answered: "My name is Tang Chu, and this is my wife, Yin Qing." He casually gave Yin Rou a fake name. Yin Rou blushed, not because of the fake name Tang Yin gave her, but because he had given her a title.

"So it's sister-in-law. Please accept my apologies! Let's go, my wife must have finished cooking by now. " Wu Shi waved his hands towards Tang Yin and Yin Rou.

Listening to his gentle and understanding manner of speaking, Tang Yin felt that he did not seem like an ordinary mountain villager. He asked curiously, "Brother Wu, have you been farming in the village all this time?"

Wu Shi waved his hand and said, "I have read a few books, and then I became a soldier. After that my leg was injured, and I could not continue to stay in the Central Army, I could only return to my hometown to farm." As he spoke, he knocked on his crippled leg.

He spoke very easily, but Yin Rou felt sad listening to him. Such a kind-hearted young man, now that he was crippled, how would he live his life in the future? She said in a low voice, "The soldiers who were injured on the battlefield should have received even better care."1

Wu Shi could not see Yin Rou's appearance clearly, but hearing her words, he could not help but be startled, and secretly thought of a beautiful voice, that sounded like silver bells.

He scratched his head and laughed foolishly, "The imperial government has already taken care of us wounded soldiers. Now, not only are we exempt from Tian Fu, we are also exempt from taxes. Even if we grow less land, the remaining harvest is much more than the others!"

Tang Yin nodded in understanding. The Yu Country court had always been benevolent and followed the policy of using gentleness to rule the country. He heard Wu Shi mention bandits more than once, and casually asked, "Brother Wu, are there a lot of bandits here? "Why didn't you report it to the officials?"

Wu Shi sighed and said: "I have reported it to the officials, but it is of no use. The Longmen Mountain is too great, there is no end to it. Once the officials and soldiers leave, they will come back. They will rob even more fiercely than before, and the government will not be able to do anything about them. "

So this was Longmen Mountain. Only now did Tang Yin know that he and Yin Rou had passed through the Longmen Mountain. He had only seen this name before on a map; it was precisely the southern border where Longmen Mountain was separated from Mo Country.

"What city is the closest to here?"

Wu Shi replied without thinking, "The closest is Daping City, but from our Wu Jia Village to Daping City, is a distance of one hundred to two hundred Li!"

As long as he entered the city and found the officials with Yu Country, everything would be fine. Not only could he contact the Yu Country court, he could even get Sanshui Army and the Eagle Army to come and fetch him.

As they spoke, Wu Shi brought Tang Yin and back to his own home.

This was a small courtyard at the edge of the village. Its walls were a wooden fence that was about half the height of a person. Looking inside, there was a small adobe room with chickens, ducks, and other poultry.

"I'm back!" Wu Shi pushed open the gate and shouted, allowing Tang Yin and Yin Rou to enter the courtyard.

They had just entered, and a young woman walked out of the adobe room. Her appearance was average, and looking at her age, she looked similar to Wu Shi.

Obviously, this was Wu Shi's wife. Seeing that Wu Shi was still bringing back two filthy beggars who looked like refugees, the young woman was startled and asked: "These two are ?"

"It's the Windman!" Wu Shi said: "These two big brothers and sister-in-law just happened to pass by our village. Before I even had dinner, I had already brought big brother and sister-in-law back to our house."

Pausing for a moment, he continued, "Xiujun, go and boil some water for your elder brother and sister-in-law to clean their bodies. Also, bring them two sets of clean clothes as well."

The young woman was a little reluctant. After all, they were neither family nor friends, and their families were not wealthy. Why did they send clothes and invite people to dinner? Yin Rou was very clever. She saw the young woman's dissatisfaction and pondered for a moment. Then, she took out a small cloth bag from Tang Yin's bosom. She opened it, and inside it was sparkling with gold and jade jewelry. She took out a golden hairpin and handed it to the young woman. She said with a smile, "Eldest Sister-in-Law, please forgive me. This is a gift from my husband." As she spoke, she glanced at Tang Yin beside her.

How could the jewelry on Yin Rou's body be ordinary? Even a golden hairpin was carved meticulously and meticulously, not only was it uniquely beautiful, it was also embedded with several sparkling and translucent gems. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say it was worth thousands of gold.

He could not help but extend her hand to receive it. At this time, Wu Shi stepped forward quickly and opened her outstretched hand, revealing an angry look, he said: "With the grace from the Yu Country, Feng Ren and Yu Ren are family, I am only inviting big brother and sister-in-law to have some coarse tea and light rice, you still want my things, have your conscience been eaten by a dog?!"

The young woman's face was flushed from his rebuke. With tears in her eyes, she rubbed the back of her hand, which had turned red from the beating, and angrily ran into the house.

Wu Shi glared at her fiercely, then turned and smiled apologetically at Tang Yin and Yin Rou, and said: "Big brother, sister-in-law, I am truly sorry. I am ignorant, have never seen the world, and have offended you in any way.

When he said this, Tang Yin and Yin Rou felt even more embarrassed. Yin Rou looked at the golden hairpin in her hand and said: "I sincerely wanted to give this hairpin to sister-in-law. Brother Wu, you misunderstand ?"

"If not for Feng Country, then Yu Country would probably have been the end of the country. My leg ? Feng Country not only saved Yu Country, but also helped me take revenge. I can only use coarse tea and light rice to entertain the two of you and I am very sorry.

Yin Rou wanted to say something, but she was stopped by Tang Yin. The latter smiled and said, "Since Brother Wu has already said so, then we will not disappoint Brother Wu's good intentions, and put this thing away!"
