Ruyi saw An Xiaojiu's shoulders shrugged up. "Sister, you are telling me what you saw!"
Ruyi said: "Yesterday when we were walking out after exploring the mansion, I felt a chill on my back, as if someone had patted me gently. Then I looked back and saw a man covered in white, wearing a red bellyband and with a bare buttocks.
The little baby disappeared at the end of the porch."
An Xiaojiu took a breath and covered her mouth: "Oh my god! I really found the wrong person. You can actually see the 'Holy Child'. That is something in legend. As far as I know, the four
No one in the village has ever seen it."
Ruyi deliberately looked sideways at An Xiaojiu: "Yesterday you said that the Tomb House is a secret belonging to your four villages. I am an outsider, so I shouldn't interfere with it. You should go back first."
An Xiaojiu refused and took Ruyi's hand: "Sister, please stop laughing at me. This matter is not what it used to be. Now that my sister has seen the Holy Child, it means that she has gone further than everyone in the four villages...
...Perhaps only relying on my sister can save the four villages. I...I am willing to tell you everything. If I am blamed by my ancestors because I have a heart to save people...I have no regrets!"
Qin Xiao asked: "Rescue people? What trouble did the four villages you mentioned encounter?"
An Xiaojiu nodded vigorously: "The four villages are a little bit unable to open the pot. In recent years, natural and man-made disasters have caused no crops to be harvested, and wars have occurred. Every household has to pay taxes. Famine broke out in the past few months, and some people want to
Those who survived left their homes and went to seek life elsewhere. Those who stayed here were the people of the four villages who wanted to do what their ancestors wanted... The four villages were self-sufficient and had no currency. We had no money to buy food outside. I was forced and had no choice.
Then I thought of the legendary treasure in Zhong Village. If I can find the treasure, I can exchange the treasure for money to save the villagers in the four villages."
An Xiaojiu was a little emotional as he spoke, with tears in his big eyes.
"Treasure?" Ruyi and Qin Xiao were both confused.
An Xiaojiu nodded and said: "Yes, sister, don't blame me for hiding it from you. The reason why I didn't tell anyone outside was because I was afraid that once the news was leaked, there would be people with ulterior motives coveting the treasures of Zhongcun..."
She let out a long sigh and explained everything:
Five hundred years ago, Zhongzhai was not called Zhongzhai, and there were no four villages. At that time, there was only one large village called "Zhongzhai".
Zhongzhai can be regarded as a secluded village, far away from the big towns. Few outsiders come here, and few people in the village go out.
There is a large family in Zhongzhai, which is the house that has now evolved into the "Zhongzhai". This family's surname is Zhong, and their ancestors have been here for generations. There is almost no room for the memorial tablets in the ancestral hall. The Zhong family can be said to be the core of Zhongzhai.
, all major matters must be handled by the house. The people in the village have no objection to this, because no matter what the matter is, the people of the Zhong family can always handle it quickly.
A strange thing happened five hundred years ago. At that time, there was a legitimate daughter in the mansion. This legitimate daughter should become the head of the Zhongzhai Village in the future. When the legitimate daughter reached the age of marriage, she could not choose the person she liked, and could only choose the one she liked.
The fathers and elders of the family go to her to make her choice. Usually, outstanding men from the village are chosen to marry into the house.
The daughter-in-law of the Zhong family is a rebellious person. She doesn't like all the men chosen by her family. It's not that those men are bad, it's just that she doesn't like any of them. This woman often takes her maid out with her because she is in a bad mood.
Playing outside. But after a few days, everyone noticed something was wrong. She went out early in the morning and came back very late. She even stopped taking her maid with her when traveling.
