Chapter 2 Life is like a play
The climate in the mountains is changing, and soon heavy snow is flying and red clouds are pressing down on the top. The world is dim, as if night is coming early.
At this time, no one dared to sway in the mountains. Li Cangyu and Gao Zhen went down the mountain and returned to the village.
The village is located deep in the dense forest of the Qinling Mountains at the foot of Taibai Mountain, with cliffs and mountain streams. There are more than 30 families living in it, all of which are hunters. Like most Datang villages, there are men, women, young and old, fields, houses, ponds and chickens and dogs. The difference is that this "village" is not only not found on the map of the Tang Dynasty, but also there are "village officials" appointed by the government and Baojia, who carry out daily management. It does not even have a clear place name, and the hunter residents simply and clearly call it "hunting garden".
The villagers and hunters here were once ordinary people of the Tang Dynasty, but because of all the unscrupulous reasons, they left their hometown and hid in the mountains to hunt for a living. This is a group of people who have no "identity". They are self-sufficient and fled, and do not pay taxes or do corvee service, so they naturally cannot enjoy the glory of the prosperous Tang Dynasty.
Li Cangyu remembers that the book called these people "fledged households", which means black market population that is not under the control of the government. Fledged households are the targets of the government's investigation and capture. Once arrested, they will be fined at the least and forced to be condemned back to their hometowns, and at worst, they will be sentenced to exile and exile at the worst.
When the two brothers ran into the hunting garden under the heavy snow, they saw a group of people gathered in the large hut piled with firewood from afar, as if chatting. There were aunts, sisters, uncles, and uncles, and the atmosphere was very warm. One of them was tall and strong, with a very unrestrained voice, and he was truly outstanding in his flock.
He is Gao Bai's father, Li Cangyu's uncle, and the hunter Wang Gaoyu.
In the hunting garden, Gao Yu's title of "Hunter King" can explain everything. He is the supreme and undisputed leader here.
Someone shouted "That boy is back", and then everyone turned their attention to Li Cangyu. Gao Yu also walked towards them.
Li Cangyu's heart tightened, and Gao Ju even shouted, "No, I'm going to be beaten!"
The wind and snowy days do not enter the mountains. This is the iron rule written by the hunters in the mountains after paying the price of their lives. Gao Yu has always been an extremely majestic leader and is also a parent of the two brothers. I think there will be no good results today.
Gao Yu took a huge step, and with this tall and strong figure, he was like a galloping horse.
Li Cangyu almost felt a sense of oppression that was as solid as it was, and he came towards him. He had never seen anyone, as imposing as Gao Yu.
"Dad..." Gao Ju's voice was trembling.
"Uncle."
Li Cangyu felt a little nervous and furious. After all, he just got into other people's skin and impersonated others' lives. Such a situation inevitably made people feel guilty. The more familiar the person he is, the more mentally stressed he can bring. Especially his uncle Gao Yu, the light emitted from his sharp and bright eyes always makes Li Cangyu feel an ominous feeling like a ray of light on his back.
Gao Yu stopped in front of the two of them, with tall Kong Wu's serious face, and he was powerful without anger.
Surprisingly, he did not scold him angrily, but said: "Your brother caught a wild boar and was peeling it. Go and help."
This is obviously what Gao Zhen said. The "your eldest brother" he said is his eldest son Gao Feng, who has been married at the age of twentieth.
"Have you caught a wild boar?" Gao Ju, who was in a frightened state, immediately ran away, "Dad, I'll go right away!"
Gao Yu didn't say anything, and Li Cangyu was very conscious and didn't let go.
Alang has no father since he was born. It was Gao Yu who raised him and actually fulfilled his duties as a father. At the same time, he also had the majesty of being a father. Li Cangyu had no reason and did not give him the minimum respect.
"Come with me." Gao Yu didn't say much, but turned around and walked towards a small wood next to the hunting garden.
Li Cangyu followed him silently into the forest, and walked a mile or two away while walking along the snow. The two stopped in front of a lonely grave.
There is a simple wooden monument in front of the tomb, but the few words engraved on the monument are made of iron hooks and silver slashes flying and sharp.
——The Tomb of Gao Xiniang.
Gao Xiniang is Alang's biological mother.
Gao Yu reached out to stroke the wooden monument, with a serious expression that was cold and deep and complicated, "Tomorrow will be her day of suffering."
Almost subconsciously, Li Cangyu knelt down on his knees and kowtowed. Deep in his heart, countless nostalgia and sadness were pouring out, as if tears were about to fall down uncontrollably.
After kowtowing, Li Cangyu suddenly shivered, as if he had been "a ghost" at that moment. He couldn't help but feel scared, thinking that there must be many things that belong to "Alang" in his body. His thoughts, his memories, including his feelings, were fragmented, but they did not die!
Gao Yu stared at the words on the wooden monument with his hands cutting his back for a long time, silent as if he was a bitch.
Li Cangyu also knelt for a long time, calm on the surface, but his mind was in a state of turmoil. It seemed that at this moment, the souls of the two people were further fusion. Many memories of his mother Gao Xiniang were constantly reviving. He even felt that his muscles were swelling faintly, as if the strength of the "two people" was being superimposed.
This kind of thing has happened many times recently. Every time it makes Li Cangyu feel a little bit like a dramatic in the drama of the Chinese Studio.
"Get up!" Gao Yu finally spoke.
Li Cangyu stood up and saw a small blue cloth bag handed to her.
"According to your mother's last wish, this thing must be handed over to you when you become a child." Gao Yu said.
Li Cangyu reached out to take it with a little surprise. When he opened the cloth bag, he was shocked!
This is a piece of jade.
A piece of green jade slightly smaller than a cigarette box and carved with unicorn patterns!
Li Cangyu will never forget this piece of jade. That day, he was invited by his friend to visit his house, with the main purpose of tasting this ancient jade with extraordinary appearance. At that time, Li Cangyu felt very strange when he saw this ancient jade. Both his eyes and his mind seemed to be sucked tightly by it. All the mysterious ancient jade I saw in my dreams for several nights, so that my mind was as if I was obsessed with it.
Finally one day, Li Cangyu suddenly fell into a coma, and after waking up, he turned into a wolf of the Tang Dynasty!
Everything is illogical and nothing can be explained, but that's the truth!
"A piece of jade scares you like this?"
Gao Yu's voice was not angry, but Li Cangyu was shocked.
"I'm just wondering, how could my mother have such a valuable thing?" Li Cangyu tried to calm herself down and asked, "Does my uncle know its origin?"
Gao Yu shook his head, "I'm afraid only your mother will know about this."
Li Cangyu grabbed the jade and thoughts were filled with thoughts.
"Have you thought of your name?" Gao Yu asked suddenly.
"I heard from my uncle and used the national surname. I asked my uncle to give me Cangyu as the name of the name." Li Cangyu said, "From now on, I will use my name to be published in the world."
Asking elders to give their words is an important procedure for the ritual of a twentieth crown, and is generally carried out by respected elders. Li Cangyu was trying to please his uncle in a roundabout way.
"Li Cangyu... sounds pretty good." Gao Yu murmured in a low voice, but suddenly changed his subject, "After you become a dying person, you should get married immediately. The girls from the Deng Laoliu family are good, they are so smart, diligent and rich, so they must be able to have a good life."
"Ah?" Li Cangyu was caught off guard. He thought that just now, they were gathering in the firewood shed, and they should be discussing this matter. No wonder there were still three aunts and six wives pointing and laughing at me.
"Uncle, isn't this good?!"
"What's wrong?" Gao Yu's voice sank, "Marriage events have always been the words of the matchmakers of their parents. Since you have no father or mother, can't my uncle be your master?"
"My uncle raised me and treated me as my biological father. Of course, I am my master." Li Cangyu said, "I just feel that I am poor and ignorant, so don't delay other people's great girls."
"Nonsense, men should start a family as soon as possible before they can start a career. I thought I had given birth to your brother Feng at the age of seventeen." Gao Yu was obviously a little unhappy. "I just discussed with everyone, and the whole park unanimously believed that you were quite compatible with the Deng girl. But you are here to underestimate yourself, what kind of morality is it?"
"Uncle..." Li Cangyu gritted his teeth, "I don't want to live in this valley for the rest of my life!"
"What did you say?" Gao Yu's thick eyebrows frowned, and his voice became a little sober.
Li Cangyu took a deep breath, "Uncle, I always wanted to go out of the mountains and take a look. While I was young, I might be able to work hard and achieve something."
"This does not conflict with getting married." Gao Yu was patient, "After getting married, you just want to go out and manage your business, and your family has a virtuous wife to take care of you. The male lead is the outside and the female lead is the inside, and this has been the case for all ages!"
"Uncle, why worry about having no wife for a real man? I really don't want to get married at all now." Li Cangyu said, "I hope to be a Kunpeng flying thousands of miles, and not learn from the Swallow Crown's nest. I hope my uncle will understand and fulfill it!"
Gao Yu was stunned, "Where did you learn these nonsense?"
Li Cangyu said embarrassedly: "There are a few books at home, which my mother left behind..."
Only when Gao Yu believed him would there be a ghost. He widened his eyes and looked at Li Cangyu incredibly.
strangeness!
When did this nephew, who raised himself by himself, who has never been willing to study and only knows how to dance with swords and eat meat with big mouthfuls, and has no ink, learn to speak with a clever tongue?
...In addition, didn’t he even peek at the girl in the Deng family taking a bath?
Of course, Li Cangyu couldn't see his uncle's bizarre inner world at this moment. He just wanted to strike while the iron was hot and reject the marriage - the orders of his parents and matchmakers, it was a very evil old society!
"Uncle, how can the forced melon be sweet? The poem says: A beautiful lady is a gentleman. The so-called beauty is on the side of the water, and it is not far away to defeat Ke. My son, Satodou, is indeed a girl from the Deng family that is not what I want. If his son returns to his family, he must have no way to talk about it!"
At this time, in addition to eloquence, you also have to have acting skills.
Li Cangyu knelt in the snow with sincerity, "I hope my uncle, be considerate and fulfilled!"
"Don't call me uncle!" Gao Yu was so angry that he was tiring, "Now you have grown your skills, you are my uncle! You are my biological uncle! I'll be your nephew!"
Li Cangyu felt heartbroken, "Uncle, don't be angry first. There are rumors in ancient times..."
"Shut up! I don't want to listen to you recite the Book of Songs again!"
"Actually, I still have a copy of "Chu Ci" at home..."
"roll!"
"Uncle calms down, my son said..."
"...I'll get out!" Gao Yu walked away with big strode.
Oh!
We are from the Chinese department!
There are four teachers in the family!
