Chapter 382: A group of gods of wealth fell from the sky

  Chapter 382 A group of gods of wealth fell from the sky

  On the morning of the 17th day of the first lunar month, according to the custom, what is eaten is hand-rolled noodles.

  The eldest sister also specially hangs the longest noodle on the curtain pole, this one is for Xiaohuo.

  It is said that longevity noodles can tie children's legs to prevent them from being taken away, and they can live a long life.

  After eating the noodles, Liu Qingshan and his group left Jiapigou and embarked on a journey north.

  Because there are enough cars, it is more convenient to drive directly.

   Otherwise, if you take the train, you have to go to Chuncheng first, take the train to Harbin, and then go to Heihe.

   It is nearly two thousand miles away, and it is expected to take three or four days to arrive. After all, the road conditions are not familiar, and there is no expressway at this time, so you have to take the national road.

   There are five cars in total, two for Liu Qingshan's family, two for Fei Ge and the old squad leader, and one for Xiao Wu, which is enough to seat nearly twenty people.

  As for the driver, don’t worry about this, most people can drive, so just switch to driving.

   These days, everyone is scrambling to drive, unlike the later generations, who are all tired of driving crookedly.

   Along the way, the mighty convoy of five vehicles is still very eye-catching, because most of the people running on the road are trucks, and occasionally there are jeeps and cars.

   At night, I ran more than 300 kilometers and successfully arrived at the first stop: Harbin, the capital of Longjiang Province.

  Liu Qingshan was about to find a hostel to settle down first. Unexpectedly, after making two phone calls, Xiao Wu said that he had contacted the hostel.

  So everyone waited at the same place, and after a while, a military jeep drove them straight north, out of the urban area, and came to a nursing home by the river.

  This nursing home is mainly used for summer escape, so there are basically no people this month.

  The accommodation and food are relatively high-end, and they are all free. This also allows everyone to recognize the energy of Xiao Wu and the others again.

  Dinner, the stewed big river fish is the most popular. It is the beginning of spring and the river water has just thawed. The so-called Kaijiang fish lays eggs, which are very delicious.

  The next day, everyone went on the road and moved on.

  This section of the National Highway is Section 202, with an asphalt road. In the past few years, due to the tense relationship between China and the Soviet Union, this road was the main troop transport route, so the road condition is good at present.

  The further north you go, the fewer vehicles there are. Often, you can drive for tens of miles without seeing a single car.

   As a result, several cars ran wildly on the national road like wild horses that had run loose, and missed the scheduled rest stop as they ran.

  It was almost dark, and there was no way to go to the village or to the shop, but at this time the sky was snowing again.

  The snow melts on the lower side, and after dark, the temperature drops sharply, and a thin layer of ice forms on the road surface, like a mirror surface.

   At this time, there are no anti-skid tires. When driving on ice, the tires are always slipping.

  Here began to enter the mountainous road section again, all uphill and downhill.

  Most of the cars they drove were jeeps, and they couldn’t wear snow chains. Liu Qingshan immediately made a decisive decision: they can’t go any further. If they drive any further, they will definitely fall into a ditch.

   There was a fork in the road just ahead, and he didn't care where it led, leading the convoy down the road ahead.

  Following the small road, we walked for ten li and eight miles, and finally saw dots of lights in front of us.

  When I got to the front, it turned out to be a small mountain village with dozens of families. The place looked quite backward, and there was no electricity. The small dim windows of every house could see the light of candles or kerosene lamps.

  Even so, this little bit of light made Liu Qingshan and the others feel much more at ease.

He pressed the car horn a few times, and dogs barked everywhere immediately. As soon as Xiao Wu got out of the car with one foot, he saw a dozen dogs, big and small, rushing towards him under the light of the car lights. He was so frightened that he hurriedly Get back into the car again.

   Li Tieniu was not afraid at all, and stood firmly in front of the car, yelling: "Get out!"

   This voice reminded me of Zhang Fei's roar at Dangyang Bridge back then, and all the dogs in the village immediately tucked their tails and ran back.

   "It's amazing, even dogs are afraid of evil spirits." Xiao Wu was very envious.

  Liu Qingshan also got out of the car, and explained with a smile on his mouth: "Tie Niu wrestles with big bears every day, and he has a bear smell on his body. These are ordinary big stupid dogs, of course they are scared to pee."

   Scared to pee, everyone also laughed, thinking that this word is very appropriate.

  At this time, the beams of flashlights began to shake in the yards of several families.

   Then someone howled loudly: "Oh my god, the police are here to catch gambling!"

  During winter slack, rural people are free and have nothing to do, so they inevitably get together to play. At this time, mahjong has not been popularized, mainly because it is too expensive.

  A pair of mahjong costs more than one hundred yuan, which is beyond the reach of ordinary people.

  Mostly playing poker, there is also a kind of playing cards, which is similar to mahjong, and it is called "watching small cards" locally.

  These are all small games, purely for entertainment. The most deceitful thing is pushing Pai Gow. Often, after a year of hard work, they lose all their money in half the night.

   This is considered gambling, and it is strictly controlled. If anyone dares to let go of the game and draw a lottery, and is stopped by the police, it will be lively.

   To this kind of gambler, he is not polite at all. The glass in the house and the mirror in the house, anyway, everything that can be smashed will be smashed first, just like ransacking the house.

  As for the gamblers caught, they will all be stripped off for you regardless of the pros and cons. In the winter, all of them will stand outside for a clap.

   Then one by one pouted there, and saw a row of white butts shivering in the cold wind.

  As for human rights and so on, they were not discussed at that time.

   It is estimated that when people in the village saw large and small vehicles entering the village, they mistook them for gambling.

   "We are passing by, catching up with the snow, we are staying in our village."

   Liu Qingshan shouted hastily.

   Soon came an old man wearing a leather hat, speaking with a strong local accent: "I am the village chief Wang Dafu, where did you come from?"

  Looking at the light, the hat on the old man's head was actually made of roe deer skin, and the boots with half fur on his feet, from Liu Qingshan's point of view, they were made of An Dahan's fur.

  In heavy snow days, the boots don’t get any snow at all.

So he quickly handed over a cigarette: "Hello, Village Chief Wang, we are from Kyrgyzstan, if it is convenient, you can get us something to eat and a place to sleep, this snowy day , and can’t drive on the road.”

   "Okay, then go to my house for dinner first, but if you want to sleep, you have to go to several houses to find accommodation."

  Village Chief Wang readily agreed. People at this time are simple and simple. Although life is not rich, they all have a heart to help those in need.

   Everyone followed to Village Chief Wang's house. There were two small earthen houses in total, and the house was almost full immediately.

  Liu Qingshan looked at the room, there were a few simple and practical furniture, the situation was similar to that of the previous Jiapigou.

  The village head, Zhang Luo, borrowed bowls, chopsticks and benches from the neighbors, poured boiling water in a large bowl, drank a bowl of hot water, and then warmed up.

  In the field of the outhouse, there are a few helping women who clean up the meals.

   Serve the steaming sauerkraut soup first. It is estimated that the cooked pork belly left over from the New Year is cut into large thick slices and boiled in the sauerkraut soup.

   Then a large tea tray was brought up, and there were pieces of meat in it. Everyone didn't know what kind of meat it was, but the shredded meat was quite thick anyway.

  The staple food is corn stubble rice and sticky bean buns, which are hot.

   "Village chief, what kind of meat is this?"

  Xiao Wu looked at the big piece of meat and didn't dare to put down his chopsticks.

   "The day before yesterday, an An Dahan ran into the village and snatched grain and grass in the same trough as the cows and horses. We beat him to death."

  While speaking, Village Chief Wang took out a square plastic bucket and poured wine into the big bowl.

  Liu Qingshan knows that An Dahan is also a kind of deer, and its scientific name is moose.

  It is the largest deer animal, much taller than a cow and horse, and there is a towering big bulge on the back, just like a camel, so it is called a moose.

   Such a big guy, if he mixes with the cattle and horses and pretends to be a livestock, isn't that almost like standing out from the crowd, he can be seen at a glance, it is strange if he is not beaten to death.

   It's just a pity that there are fewer and fewer such large deer animals.

  They can’t raise them in Jiapigou, because moose mainly don’t live in forests, but in aquatic swamps, and they don’t have such terrain.

   Hearing that it was venison, everyone started to tear off a piece and chewed it in their mouths. The more they chewed, the more delicious it became.

  Eating meat in large pieces and drinking in large bowls, the folk customs here are really simple.

   But there is nothing wrong with being careful when going out, so there are only a few drinks that can be drunk, which means that everyone drank a bowl of wine, and the rest is full.

  It was already past eight o'clock in the evening after eating, and the rural areas were not used to lighting lamps to boil oil, so they scattered to sleep in each house.

  For these people, Village Chief Wang found a total of more than ten families to find accommodation, and then arranged to live in them. At this time, no one's housing is generous.

  Liu Qingshan lived in the house of Village Chief Wang. Before going to bed, he took out ten cards of Great Unity and handed them to the village chief's wife.

  But this simple rural woman rubbed her apron around her waist with both hands, and refused to accept anything.

  Village Chief Wang on the side was also anxious: "You young girl is unreasonable, who has no time to be embarrassed, if you give me money, don't live in my house as soon as possible!"

  No choice, Liu Qingshan could only take out a box of Bishui Daqu from the car, and took out two cigarettes, which Village Chief Wang happily accepted.

  Get up the next day, go outside first to have a look, there is a thick layer of snow on the ground, Liu Qingshan knows: this kind of road conditions must not be able to walk.

  If I knew this earlier, I might as well take the train.

   When it was time for breakfast, everyone got together again and discussed for a while, but they could only admit the reality helplessly: they are temporarily stuck here.

  As soon as I asked the village chief, this village is called Wangjiaweizi, and it also guards the continuous mountains.

   On their side, the contract system was implemented relatively late, and the land distribution was completed only last year, and because of the lack of arable land, life is tight.

   In this way, Liu Qingshan and the others are even more embarrassed to eat and drink for free here, and they don’t accept money, which is really worrying.

  Breakfast is sauerkraut soup with pancakes. After eating, Liu Qingshan walked around the village.

  The village is full of squat mud houses, and a group of little dolls are watching the car.

   Some naughty boys pretended to hold the steering wheel with both hands, turning it back and forth, making a beeping sound, which reminded Liu Qingshan of Ermengzi and his gang of brats.

  While watching, I saw fifteen or six strong men, carrying tools such as earth cannons, rope clips, etc., and their mouths were still open. According to the meaning, they wanted to go up the mountain to hunt roe deer.

  Liu Qingshan couldn't help but feel agitated, and hurried up to ask: "Are there a lot of roe deer on your side?"

  One of the burly men laughed and said, "Well, roe deer, sika deer and red deer all have old noses!"

  Liu Qingshan was overjoyed: "Wait a minute, we will follow you into the mountains."

   "Don't be kidding, you city folks won't hit."

  The big man shook his head and refused.

   "I also grew up in the mountains." Liu Qingshan explained and continued:

   "And we accept roe deer and sika deer. Roe deer is 100 yuan each, sika deer is 200 yuan, and big red deer is 250 yuan."

What!

  The group of people immediately stared wide-eyed. The money they get all year round is not worth a sika deer.

   This is a group of gods of wealth who fell from the sky!
