Chapter 155 Peach Blossom Land

These animals actually don't hurt people and help people, which makes Chen Jie have a good experience. The strong curiosity in his heart makes Chen Jie want to get into the vast jungle and have a good look.
I remember that when he was very young, his grandfather took him into the mountain every three or five times. This best time as a child also made Chen Jie the mountain in front of him very familiar.
Although this is a small village, there are many high walls outside the village. Outside the village, there is a circle of walls more than two meters high, and there are many village names with knives, guns and sticks standing on it, which is a very tense look.
Seeing this situation, Chen Jie asked, "Master, is there something going on here? Why do you look so nervous?"
The old man sighed and said, "This matter can't be said in a word or two. The source of the matter is still what the national military base did. We are all villagers who moved from the surrounding area. It was a good day, and we were also happy and comfortable, but since the base was built there, they robbed women, grabbed food, and recruited people to build a base for them. We can't live this day. We have planted a little grain in total. After being robbed by them, we can only eat tree roots. There are few girls in the village, but now there are even fewer. Originally, when the villagers found that animal feces could prevent zombies from entering here, the villagers picked up animal feces in the jungle and sprinkled them on the surrounding mountains, but now only an old man like me dared to go out. Other people dared not go out, and women even went out to pick wild vegetables on the mountains. I dare not."
The old man said as he walked. When he reached the entrance of the village, he waved to the villagers above.
"Dad Chen is back. Open the door! Open the door!" With a few creaks, the huge wooden door under the high wall was slowly opened from the inside.
A group of people rushed out of it and surrounded Father Chen and Chen Jie like greeting distinguished guests.
"How's Father Chen outside today? What's new?"
"Yes, that's right! Dad Chen, are there any activities for those bastards?
"Dad Chen, tell us about it!"
•••••
A group of villagers held the guy in their hands and asked, even Chen Jie's head was about to blow up.
Dad Chen waved his hand, motioned the villagers to calm down, and then said, "There is nothing outside. They have been hunting in the jungle these days!" I don't think he will come to us these days.
Villagers are more worried about their own food and women. These people who grew up in such a small place are nothing more than these two things, their own women and their own food.
This is the most fundamental and the foundation of development.
can't be said to be discrimination against farmers, but this is a very common situation. In the case of people themselves, we are surrounded by these two things.
After everyone calmed down, everyone found that there was another person beside Father Chen, and everyone's faces became nervous in an instant.
Someone asked, "Dad Chen, who is this person?"
Father Chen smiled and said, "I'm Lao Chen. He is Xiao Chen, with mud legs. The house you live in is his ancestral house."
The person called mud legs by Father Chen is a man who looks almost 30 years old, with a bare head, wearing a thick cloth clothes and his eyes straight up.
When he heard his father call him, he hurriedly answered, "Yes, yes, what? My house? I don't have a house!" As soon as he opened his mouth, all the people around him laughed.
"You idiot! Dad said that the house you live in is their ancestral house. Someone laughed and scolded.
"Ancestral house! Oh, my family has an ancestral house, behind this mountain. With that, his hands with mud legs circled the sky, and he didn't know which mountain he pointed to.
It seems that there is something wrong with this person's mind, and there is no need for Chen Jie to fight with a person with mental problems. Just live in the ancestral house.
I haven't been back for so many years, and I basically have nothing to think about that place except childhood.
"Xiao Chen, come to my house later! Settling down at my house tonight." Father Chen said to Chen Jie.
"Oh, that's good! Dad." Chen Jie answered with a smile. Staying with such a group of people with a strong local atmosphere in this place made Chen Jie feel very relaxed. There were not many conspiracies, and the communication between people was also very simple.
Greetings when we meet. If it's customary, you're going out. Have you eaten yet? This is the national common greeting of the Chinese people. Everyone will greet each other when they meet anywhere, but this kind of greeting seems more cordial in this place.
Father Chen took Chen Jie to his house, which was relatively far away.
The village doesn't look big in the distance, but after actually walking inside, Chen Jie found that the village is not small.
I didn't expect that Chen Jie had left this place for almost 20 years. The change here would be so big. Now he can only rely on the impression in his memory to explore that place.
Father Chen's home is a yard, which, like all the houses in the countryside, is also very simple.
As soon as Chen Jie and Father Chen walked to the door, a girl in a light green cardigan came out and shouted as she walked out, "Dad, are you back?"
When she waited at the door, she suddenly looked up and saw that there was another person besides her father. Her face suddenly rose with a blush, and she lowered her head shyly.
Dad looked at the little girl with a smile and said, "I'm back!"
Then he introduced to the girl, "This is Xiao Chen, the original resident here before, the grandson of the old Chen family." Then he said to Chen Jie, "Xiao Chen! This is my granddaughter, Qiluo.
Qiluo, a beautiful name, is very suitable for this girl. Even wearing such a very simple light green dress, it can't hide her touching face at all.
is like a hibiscus flying out of the water, beautiful and free from vulgarity, more like a long but elegant daisy all over the mountains.
Seeing this woman involuntarily reminds Chen Jie of a person in the Dream of Red Mansions, whose description is not very similar to the woman in front of him.
"The lips are red, the eyebrows are not painted but green, the face is like silver and gold, and the eyes are like apricots." It's really just the right beauty. One point more is too much, and one less point is too much. It's so fresh and refined, as if it doesn't cause any vulgarity.
"Qiluo, is the meal ready?" After Chen's father introduced Chen Jie and Qiluo with a smile, he asked Qiluo.
"Meal? Oh, my meal!" Qiluo shouted in a panic and rushed into the room.
Father Chen shook his head, as if talking to himself, or as if to tell Chen Jie, and said, "Qiluo is a child with a hard life!" Just after birth, his parents all died because of a car accident, leaving me, an old man, to take care of Qiluo. Qiluo is sensible! I haven't had parents since I was a child, and my old man is not very useful. Basically, Qiluo is doing all the housework.
With a sigh, Chen's father patted Chen Jie on the back and said, "Let's go in!"
Think about it, how many difficulties a child who has lost his parents since childhood has to go through must be much earlier than that of an ordinary child.
This is a good thing for his growth, but it has made him miss a lot of things since he was a child, which are the best in life.
is equivalent to saying that Qiluo has not had a childhood since she was a child. When her peers were still coquettish in their parents' arms, she had already shouldered the burden of her family.
This is very difficult!
Entering the yard, a faint fragrance came from a very small house. Smell this fragrance, Chen Jie's throat knot moved, and he suddenly felt a strong sense of hunger.
He hasn't eaten much food for a long time. He, who has evolved to this point, basically doesn't need much food now.
Dad Chen sat down on the small bench in the yard, took out his own dry smoke, lit it again, took two sips, and asked, "Xiao Chen! I also forgot that you have anything to do here?"
The Chen family took a look at Father Chen, looked up at the sky, and said slowly, "When I was a child, Grandpa was very kind to me, but since Grandpa left, I haven't been here for a long time. This time, I came to see Grandpa. It's a troubled time, and I don't know if Grandpa is good or not!"
This is not Chen Jie's reason, but he really has to visit his grandfather for so many years.
"It's time to go and have a look. It's not easy for Mr. Chen! I'm also an old man Chen, but I can't compare with that old man Chen. Father Chen said, with a different light in his eyes.
Chen Jie was stunned for a moment. He knew that his grandfather was just an ordinary farmer. He served a small vegetable garden around the house and used it to make a living.
In his impression, it seems that your grandfather didn't do anything earth-shaking. Why did Father Chen look very respectful when he said it?
Is there anything unclear in it?
Chen Jie's head has not been enough for the past two days. He just felt it with his own feelings, which was very clear. He clearly felt that there must be something in it.
However, what is it? Even if Chen Jie's head is so smart, it is not so easy to imagine.
