The man who was a middle-aged aunt was naturally the male owner of this farmer's family. After hearing his wife's words, he, who had been immersed in eating, raised his head, looked at Lin Feng's Huaye Zhenxiang suspiciously, and asked: "Is there anything at the foot of the mountain?
cottage?"
"Yes, there is a thatched hut at the foot of the mountain." Lin Feng smiled and nodded, giving the male owner of the farmer a positive answer again.
The man shook his head slowly and said: "I don't know! This place is already relatively remote. Although it borders Binhai City, there is no road access. Who has time to build a hut at the foot of the mountain?"
Generally speaking, where one city borders another city, even if it is in the outer suburbs, people will not be too poor. Because although this kind of bordering place, on the surface, is a city of its own, in fact,
But most of them belong to the two-nothing type.
Therefore, in this kind of place, even in an inconspicuous village, the villagers may be quite wealthy. Because doing nothing means some gray ways to make a fortune.
However, this is not the case here. Because this mountain has no access roads, this place and the two places bordering the mountain have become extremely remote and desolate. Naturally, there are no villagers living in these two places.
That kind of gray way to make a fortune.
It is for this reason that the villagers in these two places still retain their simple folk customs. Otherwise, they would have been corrupted by money and modern life. This kind of simple folk customs will not be preserved at all.
It may have been saved.
After asking this question, Lin Feng stopped asking any more questions. After all, it was Hanano Moka who cared about this matter. The reason why he asked these questions for her was because Hanano Moka came from Japan. Lin Feng was worried about her asking.
Being too direct will just offend the villagers.
Hanano Moxiang asked at this time: "Uncle, could it be built by people from your village? Does this mountain produce something? After the villagers from your village built it, it was convenient for them to live at the foot of the mountain when it was too late to go down.
one night?"
"This mountain produces nothing!" The middle-aged man shook his head slowly and said, "If this mountain had any special products, the villagers in our village wouldn't all be facing the loess and turning their backs to the sky."
With their faces facing the loess and their backs turned to the sky, they are truly farmers. Apart from farming, they have no other source of income.
"Could it be that someone discovered that something was produced on this mountain?" Hanano Moka asked again: "I deliberately blocked the news and didn't let you know, so I sneaked up the mountain myself?"
Hearing Hanano Moka's words, the middle-aged man put down his rice bowl, laughed heartily, and said, "If that's the case, just let him go up the mountain. Girl, do you know what this mountain is called?"
The middle-aged aunt poured water into the water glass in front of her man and said, "Yes, do you know what this mountain is called?"
Hanano Moxiang nodded, pointed at Lin Feng, and said, "I know, I heard him say that this mountain is called Langshan."
The middle-aged man smiled and said: "Since you know this name, you must know the reason why this mountain is called this name?"
"I heard that there used to be wolves on this mountain, and the entire mountain was a wolf den, so it was called Wolf Mountain." Lin Feng nodded and said, "I wonder if this statement is accurate?"
"Exactly." The middle-aged man nodded, with a look of recollection on his face, and said: "This mountain is an authentic wolf mountain. There are many caves on the mountain, which are all wolf dens. When I was ten years old, I still
When I was a child, there were still wolves on this mountain! Later, the wolves were exterminated, and the wolf howls were no longer heard here! In the past, at night, the howls of wolves here were just one after another.
."
"Ah?" Hanano Moka looked surprised and asked: "Uncle, is this true? Then you are too bold, right? This place is only about ten kilometers away from the foot of the mountain, right? You won't be afraid if you live here.
Wolves?”
"Afraid!" The middle-aged uncle said with a smile: "Why are you not afraid? However, the formation of this village was only more than ten years ago. In the past, our village was more than ten kilometers away from here. The earthquake that year,
The village was destroyed by the earthquake. Later, we found a relatively flat place nearby and moved here. However, we are getting closer and closer to Langshan Mountain."
"So that's it." Hanano Moka looked like she suddenly understood, and then changed the topic and asked: "Uncle, just now you said that the wolves were wiped out?"
This seemed to be an irrelevant topic, but Hanano Moka quickly caught the middle-aged man's look of reminiscing with a hint of happiness when he talked about wolves.
If you want to listen to more people talk, you have to start with topics that interest people, so that you can slowly lead the topic to what you want to know.
If you ask something out of the blue as soon as you come up, it can easily arouse people's wariness.
Sure enough, when he heard Hanano Moka's words, the middle-aged man had a look of unbearability on his face. He sighed and said, "Yes, the government sent troops with guns back then. The gunshots rang out all night, and the screams of wolves were heard."
The sound resounded throughout the night. It was not a normal wolf howl, but a miserable scream."
After a pause, the middle-aged man sighed again and said: "Looking back now, I still think the screams were very scary! In fact, a few wolves on this kind of mountain where people don't often go up is nothing at all.
An unexpected thing. It's just that the wolves in Langshan have gathered in packs.
However, when I was in my teens, the wolf pack was not as big as it used to be. After all, society has been developing, and it has been more or less affected here. The wolf pack's living environment has been threatened, and they have moved there.
The wolves left. There were only a few wolves left that had not been moved away. Besides, they never went down the mountain into the village. The wolf suppression campaign that year was really too much.
Some people even say that the earthquake was the retribution for our village because of the extermination of the wolves. You don’t know, although other villages were also damaged by the earthquake, the damage was not that great. Only our village was affected.
All the houses in the village were destroyed, and most people were injured and killed. Hey, maybe this is really retribution."
"This has nothing to do with retribution." Lin Feng said: "Besides, even if it is retribution, it should not be retribution to the villagers. Didn't the government send troops to exterminate the wolves?"
"The villagers led us up the mountain," the middle-aged man said in a low voice, as if he didn't want to mention this.
The middle-aged aunt was hesitant to speak. She seemed to have something to say, but she didn't dare to say it, because when she looked at her man, her eyes were full of awe, as if she wanted to say something.
, she had to get her man's permission before she dared to say it.
In fact, most rural women are very talkative. To put it more clearly, they prefer to talk about topics that are trivial and right and wrong. Even if they involve other people, they will still talk about topics that should not be discussed.
, never tired of it...
"Auntie, what do you want to say?" Hanano Moka looked at Lin Feng, Lin Feng nodded silently, and Hanano Moka asked this question.
"Nothing, nothing." The middle-aged aunt replied immediately, but she looked at her man, as if she was afraid that he would be angry.
The middle-aged man looked at his wife with a smile and said, "You want to talk about those legendary things again? Rural women really have a lot of things to do! Say it, say it, it's not something that can't be said, it's like that anyway.
Over the years, the original site of the village has been destroyed by earthquakes."
"Oh!" The middle-aged aunt agreed as if she had received an amnesty order, and then said to Hanano Moka: "You don't know why our head doesn't want to mention this. It's because of ancient legends.
, the wolves are on this Wolf Mountain to guard the tomb of an ancient general!
According to legend, this general was so powerful that before he died, he used magic to attract wolves and imprisoned them on Wolf Mountain to guard his tomb."
All such legends are generally very unreliable, but Hanano Moka showed strong interest and asked: "This is quite a strange legend."
"Yes." The middle-aged aunt said: "This is also the legend why wolves never go down the mountain to harass nearby villages! Otherwise, what would the wolves have to eat in the mountains? But I have lived here for decades, and
When I was young, when the wolves on Langshan Mountain were still very large, I lived near Langshan Mountain. I could always hear wolves howling at night, but I never saw a pack of wolves coming down the mountain into the village."
"Uh..." Lin Feng asked in shock: "Auntie, uncle just said that the wolves in Langshan were wiped out when he was a teenager. You said you lived here very early. When did you and uncle get married?
Is there something wrong?"
The middle-aged man smiled and said: "The time of our marriage is very normal. Before your aunt married me, she lived nearby. Living here, it is impossible to marry a daughter-in-law from far away, haha!"
After talking about it, the middle-aged man burst out laughing.
Lin Feng touched the back of his head in embarrassment. He had misunderstood...
The middle-aged aunt also laughed and said: "No, before I married your uncle, I lived in a village not far from this village. I was young at that time, and at night, the wolves on Wolf Mountain howled.
The sound is really clear and clear."
"This is just a legend, something that cannot be confirmed." Lin Feng smiled and shook his head.
Hearing Lin Feng's words, the middle-aged aunt looked serious and said, "Then you are wrong. There was a heavy rain a few years ago, and things washed down from the mountain..."
"Cough cough cough!" The middle-aged man's cough sounded at this time. The middle-aged aunt's words stopped abruptly, and then she covered her mouth with an expression that said she was talking nonsense...
Seeing this scene, Lin Feng couldn't hold it back and burst out laughing. Then, Hanano Moka also laughed. This rural couple is so cute...
