"Village Chief! I called them over! Come on, come on! I haven't eaten meat for two months, hehehe!"
Chen Yao excitedly led several people back.
"Brother, why are you in such a hurry! Father! Come on, come on! What prey did you catch? Take it out quickly! I want to eat barbecue!"
Xiaohu doesn't seem to be much better than Chen Yao.
It's no wonder that most of the villagers in Black Abyss Village are ordinary star citizens, that is, unawakened mortals.
There are very few people who can go out to hunt in the village. In addition, there are no ordinary beasts in the black abyss. It is very difficult to hunt mutated beasts. As a result, many people cannot eat meat regularly. They have rye for three meals a day, but it is still better than hunting. Starve to death.
"Son! You are the son of the village chief! You are here to take over Heiyuan Village! What a shame for you!"
Jiang Qingyan held Xiaohu's shoulders with a serious look on his face.
"But father, your son Cheng Daqi has not eaten meat for two months..." Xiaohu looked bitter.
"Yes, yes, Uncle Qingyan, if I don't have enough nutrition, I will be stunted~"
Qiu Yueli glanced at her small breasts with a sad expression, and then took a peek at her sister.
Qiu Yunxi said nothing, but there was still a hint of expectation in his eyes.
"Alas, it's useless for me to be the village chief! You little guys have suffered so much. Being born in the Black Abyss is your greatest misfortune! Qingyan, take it out quickly."
Jiang Qingshan's eyes were full of sadness.
"Grandpa Qingshan, that's not the case. Although the conditions in Heiyuan Village are difficult, everyone is happy. You don't need to blame yourself."
Qiu Yueli shook her head vigorously.
"Yes, old village chief, you don't have to worry. We will be able to leave the village starting tomorrow. Then we will bring back a lot of prey for everyone so that everyone can eat meat!"
Chen Yao patted his chest and vowed.
"Grandpa, brother, they are right! Why do you keep saying these things?" Xiaohu chuckled.
Qiu Yunxi was silent, but nodded.
"Okay! Okay! It's your misfortune to be born in Black Abyss Village, but you will definitely become the new hope of Black Abyss Village in the future!"
The old villager's face was full of pride.
"Qingyan, handle the hunt. Remember to salt the organs and dry them. Huzi, go make a fire."
"Okay." Jiang Qingyan and Xiaohu responded at the same time.
With a move of his right hand, Jiang Qingyan took out the two prey items and placed them on the ground.
"Wow! Iron-crowned rooster! And rock-skinned pig! Brother Yao, brother Yao, look, they are your kind!"
Qiu Yueli clapped her hands and said happily.
"What the same kind!"
Chen Yao's head was covered with black lines. He slightly bent his index finger and tapped Li Li's forehead.
"Hmm! That's right. Brother Yao was really like a rock-skinned pig before. Ah, ah, ah, Grandpa Qingshan~ Brother Chen Yao bullied me!"
Seeing that Chen Yao was about to have another attack, Qiu Yueli hurriedly hid behind Jiang Qingshan.
"Haha, Yue Li, go and ask your father and mother to come over and eat together." Jiang Qingshan smiled gently.
"Okay!"
Before leaving, she stuck out her pink tongue at Chen Yao and made a face.
This little goblin must find an opportunity to deal with her! Chen Yao said viciously in his heart.
Chen Yao shook his head and put away those distracting thoughts.
"Uncle Qingyan, where did you hunt these crested roosters and rock-skinned pigs?"
"Oh, the crested rooster. Just a mile out of the village, I saw this crested rooster eating the rye grown by the villagers. When I was about to go up and catch it, it..." Qing Yan looked puzzled while using simple tools to deal with it.
"It ate enough wheat, chirped for a long time, and then fainted..."
Chen Yao: (⊙-⊙)...
Jiang Hu: (〃'0'〃)...
Yunxi: (0.0)...
"As for this rock-skinned pig..."
Qingyan rubbed his beard stubble.
"When I found it, it was lying next to a stone and had been unconscious for a long time..."
Jiang Hu was so shocked that he almost lit his clothes on fire, and Chen Yao was also stunned.
"Hmm...Uncle Qingyan, are all the strange beasts outside so stupid?"
Chen Yao touched his nose.
"That's weird! They are all very smart, but there are always a few stupid ones. I'm just lucky."
Jiang Qingyan chuckled.
"That's it..."
--------------------------
"Oh~ Mom and Dad, hurry up! It's too late and all the delicious food has been eaten up by Brother Chenyao and Brother Xiaohu!"
Qiu Yueli turned back to urge the Qiu couple while trotting.
"No, your two brothers love you so much that they will keep it for you." Qiu Hongzhi didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"What's the rush, kid? Your Grandpa Qingshan won't let such a well-behaved Lili go hungry." Luo Pingshui smiled.
The village chief's house was only a few minutes' walk from the Qiu family, but Qiu Yueli felt that a century had passed and the people living under the black abyss were too miserable.
"Grandpa Qingshan! We are here! Wow! It smells so good! Father and mother, come here quickly!"
Qiu Yueli cheered.
"Haha, we're all here. Come and sit down quickly. The meat has just been grilled. Don't be in a hurry. I'll teach the little guys some knowledge first."
When the Qiu couple and Qiu Yueli arrived, everyone was already sitting around the fire and sitting on the ground. Heiyuan Village was not particular about things.
"Okay, okay!" Qiu Yueli pulled Qiu and his wife to sit down together.
Jiang Qingshan closed his eyes and meditated for a while.
"Then let's start with the history of Black Abyss Village!"
"I know, I know. My sister and I have read the books in Grandpa Qingshan's library. Heiyuan Village was founded by the ancestor village chief Jiang Zu!"
Qiu Yueli raised her hand and said.
"Li'er, don't interrupt the village chief! It's very rude!"
Qiu Hongzhi's face was stern, Luo Pingshui didn't say anything, but he had the same idea. This shows Jiang Qingshan's prestige in the village.
"Oh." Qiu Yueli's face fell and she covered her mouth with her hand.
"Haha, Yue Li is right. What I am going to say next is mainly for Xiaohu and Chenyao."
"Xiaohu likes to practice martial arts since he was a child, but doesn't like to read books. Although Chen Yao reads books, he only reads research books and has no knowledge of literature and history."
The old village chief waved his hand.
"Next, what I say should be heard well, and it's best to remember it!"
Jiang Qingshan said with a serious expression.
"Speak, old village chief, I'm listening."
Saying this, Chen Yao still stared at the barbecue.
"Grandpa, tell me! I will definitely..."
Obviously these two brothers are carved from the same mold....
"Huh, I'll ask you two questions later. If you can't answer them, don't eat!"
Jiang Qingyan was so angry that he blew his beard and stared.
"Okay. I really listened carefully this time."
The two brothers reluctantly took their eyes away from the barbecue.
The old village chief stroked his goatee and said calmly.
"Heiyuan Village was founded in the 105th year of the Ancient Desolate Era. The founder of the village, Jiang Taizu, was a mortal spirit without any desolate power, but he lived to be 139 years old."
"Huh? Old village chief, why is this?"
Chen Yao was puzzled, and Xiao Hu nodded.
"I don't know, but what's surprising is far more than just his lifespan. The lifeblood of Heiyuan Village, the rye that the villagers eat every day, was cultivated by Jiang Taigong."
"He traveled through most of the territory of Morning Star, found more than thirty kinds of cereals, and planted them all under the black abyss. The result..."
Speaking of this, the old village chief paused.
"Only one survived?" Chen Yao rubbed his chin.
"Yes, it is rye now, but rye was just ordinary oats at first, but after being eroded by the air of the black abyss, it transformed into rye. The taste and texture have also become worse, but at least it can fill your stomach. . It can be said that without Jiang Taizu, there would be no Heiyuan Village."
"Jiang Taizu is really a great man." Qiu Yueli whispered.
"That's of course, so as the ancestor, it's more important to lead the villagers to live a better life."
Having said this, Jiang Qingshan looked proud and stared at Jiang Qingyan again. This hint made Jiang Qingyan blush.
"Then does Jiang Taizu have a wife?"
Chen Yao suddenly interrupted.
"Yes, yes! Why haven't you heard from Grandpa Qingshan about the wife of Grandpa Qingshan?"
Qiu Yueli was also puzzled.
"Hey! The ancestor... he was alone all his life."
The old village chief's face was full of sadness at this moment.
"Then Grandpa Qingshan...how did everyone get here? Mom said that only when a man and a woman are together will they have children!"
Qiu Yueli shook the village chief's arm.
"Since you asked, let me tell you. This is a secret that is not told in Black Abyss Village, but today, I have to tell you."
Jiang Qingshan closed his eyes, a trace of pain flashed across his face.
"Actually, our ancestor of the Jiang family was a wandering orphan who had no father or mother and was brought back for adoption by the village chief from outside the Black Abyss. Later, he met and fell in love with an orphan girl who was also adopted, and that is how the Jiang family came to be. .”
"In the next ten years, Taigong Jiang brought back dozens of pairs of orphans and girls from outside the Yuan continent, and taught them farming, life, and literacy. Heiyuan Village gradually developed and grew. To this day, our Heiyuan Village has already There are thousands of people.”
This short list of a hundred words is the most secretive history of Heiyuan Village. The next village chief will only be informed when the previous village chief passes away. Today, Jiang Qingshan told it, but after saying this, Jiang Qingshan felt relieved.
"This..." Everyone present was shocked. Chen Yao didn't expect that this casual mouth would lead to a big trap!
"Old village chief, I didn't mean to..."
"Boy Chenyao, you asked a very good question. The fact that you can ask this question shows that you are good at observing and thinking, which is good."
The old village chief laughed.
"Hehehe, the village chief praised me."
Jiang Qingshan excused him, which made Chen Yao a little embarrassed.
"Next, let me ask you a question."
Jiang Qingshan suddenly said this.
"Village chief, you ask!"
Chen Yao straightened up and answered seriously. Xiaohu and the Qiu sisters also cheered up and listened.
"Have you ever complained that the environment in our Heiyuan Village is so bad? There is no clean water source, no decent vegetation, and not enough food."
"Of course not! The village chief, who was born in Heiyuan Village, how can he complain about Heiyuan Village? It's just that I'm a little confused as to why the ancestor village chief wanted to build a village here." Chen Yao said what Xiaohu and the others felt.
"This, um... I will tell you when you are strong enough. Just think of it as an incentive for you to move forward. Knowing it too early is not good for you."
Jiang Qingshan showed a mysterious smile.
"Well... why is Grandpa Qingshan like this..."
Li Xiaoxiao pursed her lips, obviously not satisfied with this answer.
Xiaohu was also confused.
"It's okay Lili, I believe we will become stronger soon, and the old village chief will definitely tell us then."
Chen Yao patted Lili's head gently.
"Haha." An incomprehensible smile appeared on Qiu Hongzhi's face.
"Good daughter, your brother Chenyao really loves you."
Luo Pingshui also had a narrow look on her face.
"Of course, father, why are you laughing!"
Qiu Yueli's cheeks bulged.
"Nothing, nothing, hahahahaha!"
Everyone started laughing. As for the reason, I'm afraid only the girl didn't know.
[The earlier chapters, how can I put it, are a little bit new, mainly because the author has just started coding, so it is inevitable. However, I will assure readers that the quality of the subsequent chapters will be wonderful! 】
