Seeing this scene, it felt a bit like summer, and Chen Xiaobei felt that he could no longer wear his thin autumn clothes and trousers.
Liu Rumei obviously lost her original interest. She stopped and after taking a few sips of water, she looked around the woods, then turned to look at Chen Xiaobei, "Brother Xiaobei, how about we go back?" .”
Before Chen Xiaobei could speak, Liu Ziming next to him suddenly pricked up his ears and said, "Everyone, please stop moving and listen to what's going on."
Everyone immediately stopped talking and listened carefully.
Sure enough, there was a faint movement in the distance.
The sound sounded like human voices.
There was actually someone there, which surprised everyone. Liu Rumei looked around and pointed at the big tree next to her.
Liu Ziming and Liu Ziliang understood each other and jumped up to the tree. But when they looked down again, they felt helpless and jumped down again.
It turned out that under the tree, Chen Xiaobei and the two village protection team members were staring at the big tree that was almost as thick as two people hugging each other, and they were in a daze.
Liu Rumei rushed to the treetop and discovered the problem. Just as she was about to come down, she saw Liu Ziming waving his hand at her to signal her not to move.
Liu Ziming and Liu Ziliang asked several Liu family guards to jump down, two of them, and lifted Chen Xiaobei and the two village guards to the treetops.
As soon as everyone hid themselves, they saw three gray shadows flashing out from the depths of the woods in the distance. Sure enough, there was someone.
The three of them were still muttering something as they walked. The accent sounds like the Mandarin of Wannian City.
These three people were wearing hexagonal hats with very small brim, probably less than an inch, so they looked a bit awkward.
The clothes of the three people were obviously worn out. It looks like a robe. Although the clothes are worn out, it can be seen that they are very clean.
Looking at the faces of the three of them, they all have white hair and beard. They must be over sixty at this age.
What is a little surprising is that the faces of these three people are full of red. They should be well-maintained on weekdays.
Seeing the three people reaching their feet, everyone did not dare to express their anger and just hoped that they would pass by quickly, but the three people suddenly stopped in unison.
In the next moment, the three of them reached out and took off their hats at the same time, turned around and threw them towards the tree. On the tree were two village guards, Chen Daqiang and Chen Sanliang, plus several Liu family guards.
Apparently they were exposed.
Seeing the other party throwing a hat over, Liu Ziming, Liu Ziliang, the two brothers shouted loudly, flew out like birds, swung the long sword in their hands, and smashed the hat into pieces with a few clicks.
Seeing this, Liu Rumei put her little finger in her mouth and blew a quick whistle, then she rose into the air and leaped down.
Immediately afterwards, the rest of the people fell down from the trees one after another, surrounding the three people.
Obviously this was beyond the expectations of the men in gray, and they immediately formed a small circle back to back.
Seeing this scene, Liu Rumei nodded slightly. Yes, he was well-educated after all.
The man facing Liu Rumei had a stern look on his face, pointed his hand, and said sternly, "Who are you? Why are you here in this valley?"
Next to him, Liu Ziliang laughed, "Why can't we come to such a big Qingniu Mountain?"
The three of them were stunned for a moment at first, and then asked tentatively, "I saw that some ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum were harvested a few days ago, but what did you do?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Xiaobei quickly slid down from the tree and hugged the three of them. "I'm really sorry, you three old people. I'm a villager from Hetou Village at the foot of the mountain. I accidentally wandered in here a few days ago and found some people involved." Ganoderma lucidum, so I dug some up.”
The old man looked at him and then asked, "Why are you here now?"
Seeing that the other party didn't seem to have much malice, Chen Xiaobei once again accompanied him and said with a smile, "Old man, we were just curious and wanted to see what the Hulu Valley was like, so we kept walking in and didn't want to disturb the three of us. .”
Liu Rumei instantly understood what Chen Xiaobei meant, and quickly showed her kindness. She said hello, and the Liu family guards surrounding the three old men immediately lowered their posture and retreated behind Liu Rumei.
Liu Rumei also smiled and clasped her fists and said, "Yes, we entered this place by mistake and did not intend to offend. If we disturb the three of you, we will leave now."
These people looked at each other. The old man who just spoke looked at Liu Rumei and asked back, "This girl doesn't look like the people in the village."
Liu Ziming sneered from the side, "Assuming you have some discernment, this is Miss Liu Rumei, the daughter of Lord Protector Liu Houye."
Liu Rumei quickly raised her hand to signal Liu Ziming to shut up, "Ziming can't be so presumptuous."
The three old men looked at each other, "Is the Marquis Liu you are talking about Prince Liu Jingye? As far as I know, Liu Jingye has no daughter, only one son, Liu Xiangnan."
Upon hearing this Liu Rumei, she quickly clasped her fists and said, "Three seniors, the Liu Jingye you are talking about is my grandfather, and Liu Xiangnan is my father."
Look at me, these three people, and I see you laughing loudly at the end. The person who just spoke couldn’t help twirling his beard and said, "Yeah, after all, we have been in this valley for nearly fifty years. I'm afraid things have already changed outside." Human beings are wrong.”
After saying that, the man stepped forward to face the crowd and bowed slightly, "My name is Qin Gang, and I followed your grandfather Liu Jingye through life and death fifty years ago."
"Then by chance, I arrived in this Calabash Valley and never left again."
Hearing this, Chen Xiaobei understood the so-called coincidence. In fact, there are just a lot of things that are inconvenient to say.
Liu Rumei also smiled and hugged Qin Gang, "Old man, since you once fought with my grandfather, I have to call you grandfather."
This sentence made Qin Gang elated and laughed.
"God is open to me. Since an old friend is here, please come to our residence and sit for a while. It will also be considered as our kindness to the landlord."
Hearing this, Chen Xiaobei suddenly felt a little embarrassed. People were talking about their friendship as landlords, and now they had occupied the gourd bone. When he comes back in the future, he always feels a little unfair.
Thinking of this, he quickly stepped forward again, bowed to Qin Gang and said, "Old man, I'm really sorry. I also dug up some ginseng and Ganoderma lucidum. I didn't know it was you..."
After hearing this, Qin Gang laughed loudly again, "It doesn't matter, there are a lot of them here anyway, you can dig some and take them back if you want, just don't dig up the ones that are too small, just let them grow for a few years."
With Qin Gang's words, Chen Xiaobei finally breathed a long sigh of relief, so it would be justifiable to come in again in the future.
Qin Gang invited everyone to follow him and continue walking in. After walking for about half a mile, the weather had become very hot. Chen Xiaobei even wanted to take off his thin autumn clothes and go shirtless.
