"Hey, burn your ass to death. If he is burned to death, then... then... what is the thing that went into the Wushen Gorge?"
The old ghost's eyes were full of hatred, and he seemed to have hatred towards Yu Dongjin. Whether his words were true or false, they had attracted Yue Guanchao's attention. He decided to urge the old man to continue talking, so as to understand the situation back then.
"Back then, my family had been living in the hilly areas for generations, and we were still mountain people who had not been naturalized by Wang Zhi. After the military defeat in Dongjin, that woman had no choice but to hide in the mountains and old forests in order to protect herself. He knew that the mountain people had been dealing with mountains, forests and hills for generations. They used it as a guise to build a mausoleum for the Witch God Kingdom to capture us mountain people into the canyon and build a mountain fortress for them."
He paused, and then his tone was full of indignation: "If we are just building a cottage, we will be tired, and we will not be owed anything by letting us go back. This person who kills a thousand people is afraid that we will go out and inform all the craftsmen who built the cottage." They were all buried alive.”
"If I hadn't been lucky enough to be ripped open by wild wolves who were chasing corpses, I would have been suffocated to death, and among thousands of craftsmen, I was the only one who survived."
"Then what? Since you are a refugee from the hilly areas, wouldn't it be enough to escape and return to the hills? Why did you live in the canyon for so long?"
Song Siyuan was quite curious about this.
"Going back? It's a beautiful thought. It's not like I haven't gone back before. I really can't survive, so I can only return to the canyon the way I came."
"Why?"
Song Siyuan decided to break the casserole and ask the truth.
"Suppress the bandits."
While the old man was talking, he picked up the wooden lid of the pot, took a piece of roasted sweet potato from the basket inside, played the stuff, and talked about his experiences over the years.
Ever since the wild wolves dug up the soil, Old Man Mo had thought about returning to the hills. After returning, he discovered that the hilly areas had changed drastically.
After the defeat of Miyagi, the Imperial family led the remaining forces into the hilly areas, so that they could take advantage of the cover of hundreds of miles of hills and mountains to prepare for the subsequent restoration of the country. This plan of the Jiangwu Allied Forces completely wiped out the people in the hilly areas. The people who were poisoned were pushed to a desperate situation.
Over the past year, the remnant forces of the Pregnancy family have used the hills to resist the coalition forces in a stalemate. The two-year separatist garrison has completely deteriorated the livelihood of the people in the hills. These Gu people only know how to eat the weak and ignore good, evil and justice. They will help whoever gives them the most benefits. Who, in the end, actually took the initiative to help the pregnant family resist the coalition forces and search for information.
Even if these remnant forces failed, the Gu people could not change their folk customs, and their rejection of the coalition forces only intensified. Even the remnant forces of the Pregnancy clan disguised themselves as Gu people and sneaked into the mountains and rivers, and could launch a surprise attack on the incoming coalition forces at any time.
In this case, regardless of whether the Gu people are living people or remnants, they are all enemies of the new dynasty of the Wu Kingdom. The Jiang family and the Wu family realized the seriousness of the problem and began to think about countermeasures.
For thousands of years, these Gu people have not accepted the rule of the king and are not under the control of the Witch Kingdom. In addition, the remnants of the pregnant family have mixed in, which has added dangerous attributes and become extremely difficult to tame. They are also unwilling to obey the management of the Witch Kingdom. In order to put an end to the war as soon as possible, the Jiang family and the Wu family made a decision to promote naturalization and integrate the Gu people into the management of the Wu Kingdom.
For this purpose, the allied forces of the Wu Kingdom and the New Dynasty began to conduct carpet searches in the hilly and mountainous areas. If they found the remnants of the pregnant family, they would kill them on the spot. If they were unrelated Gu people, they would order their families to move to the plains.
This plan is indeed effective immediately. The weapons of these Gu people are not as good as the sharp weapons of the coalition forces. They have no choice but to surrender in the face of powerful weapons. If the Gu people are willing to naturalize, it means that they are still willing to serve as the new dynasty. People, then move to the hills and shallow mountains to live in peace.
If they resist tenaciously, it means they have a reason to stay in the mountainous area. If you break it down further, they are either unwilling to surrender to the new dynasty, or they are remnant forces. Either way is hostile to the new dynasty, and they can directly clear out the remnants. For the sake of his name, he will be killed on the spot without mercy.
Under this coercive policy, most of the Gu people were forced to naturalize and come to live in the area where the hills and plains meet. Those who were unwilling to naturalize simply went into the canyons and never came out. Even if they did come out, they would probably become Although the souls of the dead under the sword of the New Dynasty were bloody and cruel, the New Dynasty achieved the goal of quickly eliminating the war, completely sorting out the hilly and mountainous areas, and expelling all the remaining forces.
Seeing that the hills no longer belonged to them, these remnant forces began to move into the mountains and hid in the built castles. When Old Man Mo went out and returned to his cottage, the buildings were already deserted and there was no one in the area. Only after asking around did he find out about the new situation. The North Korean coalition forces implemented the strategy of strengthening the wall and clearing the country, and had already moved out all the residents. The corpses all over the ground told him what would happen to the residents who did not cooperate.
Old Man Mo thought about it carefully. Everyone knew that he was deceived by the Yi family to build a walled city. The New Dynasty Allied Forces had zero tolerance for the Gu people who had helped the remnants of the Yi family. If he went to the plain area, he would inevitably be stabbed. Thinking After much deliberation, since my family was gone, I no longer had the intention to continue walking out, so I simply returned to the canyon.
For the next twenty years, he has been living in the canyon, hiding under the cover of the jungle. Although his life is difficult, it is more comfortable than the new administration, and he gradually doesn't want to leave the canyon so much.
"How did you know he was dead?"
Umi Feng is particularly concerned about this issue.
"Back then, Yu Dongjin caused so much harm to the old man. I also thought about seeking revenge on him. But before I could take action, internal strife broke out in these cottages. After a fight between the gangs, they were robbed and killed by nearby Gu residents. , these poisonous people knew that it was Yudong Jin who harmed them, and after cleaning up these remnants, they made the remaining forces into a Jingguan, and set it up next to the walled city, where anyone can see it."
"What about the body of Yu Dongjin?" Umi Fengyou continued to ask.
"I also followed the trend and went to see the walled city. Ren Dongjin's body was buried next to Jingguan. I don't know who built an upside-down grave for him, telling him that he would never die again. It was really satisfying, hahahahahaha."
Everyone listened to Old Man Mo's laughter, which was both joking and sarcastic, as if a great revenge had been avenged, or gloating about misfortune. No matter what was in the laughter, one thing was certain - the old man's enemy was dead, and he was extremely happy.
"Come on, don't stop me from eating. Old man, it's so easy for me to grow potatoes and sweet potatoes that are not poisonous. Don't take them from me."
While the old man was eating, Yue Guanchao pulled them out of the fence gate and asked Wu Mifeng outside the door: "I think this old man has gone crazy. Are his words credible?"
Yue Guanchao and the others had just arrived and had limited knowledge of the history of the Wu Kingdom. The only information they had was relayed by Wu Xuanyu. They didn’t know whether it was true or false, or how much she had added fuel to the fire, so they had to continue to inquire with Wu Mifeng. , maybe there are differences.
Wu Mifeng looked at everyone and added to them the news that old man Qimo had not said: "What he said is basically true. Back then, the Jiang family and the Wu family did organize the New Dynasty allied forces to station in the hills to carry out land reform and naturalization, and briefly eliminated the The remaining forces resisted, but since the Gu people have been living in the hilly areas for thousands of years, they have long been accustomed to living by the water and living in settlements based on the mountains. It didn't take long for them to move back..."
During this process, the new dynasty issued restrictive rules in order to prevent Shengmin people from migrating inward. These rules were nothing compared to the thousands of years of tradition of Shengmin people. In the end, they failed to prevent the return migration, but instead aggravated the situation. Due to the conflict between the Wu Kingdom and the Shengmin, as long as there are armed guards to prevent the Shengmin from returning, conflicts will inevitably break out. Some villages will even cause chaos and will only return to their hometowns.
Seeing that more and more Gu people are about to move back, the Wu Kingdom's military guards are gradually being consumed in public security. Their mission was originally to protect the hills. It would be a bit frustrating to be used up like this. The Jiang family of the New Dynasty also knows this. It is better to clear up the situation than to block it, so we have to find another way.
At that time, they originally wanted to completely eliminate the remaining forces, so they moved these Gu people out of the hills. Now, several years have passed, and the hilly areas have been clear of wilderness for many years. There has long been no soil for participating forces to survive, and most of the remaining forces have been wiped out. Due to various factors, Later, the Wu Kingdom no longer insisted on land reform and naturalization, and began to allow the Gu people to move back. Those who were willing to move back would be given money for travel expenses, and those who were unwilling to move back could continue to stay in the naturalized village.
Under this policy, the Gu people ushered in a wave of migration back home. They were originally forced to move to the plains, and they had little recognition of the customs and people of the plains. They were closer to the primitive tribal system. After being allowed to move back, most of the Gu people began to Pack your things and prepare to move back to your ancestral home.
However, in just a few years, the Gu people once again occupied the hilly areas and resumed their previous lives. They knew that this time was different from the past, and they also made a compromise with the Wu Kingdom, that is, they called themselves their subjects by bathing in Wang Hua, and at the same time, they also acquiesced. The Wu Kingdom's military guards can station troops and towns throughout the hills to guard the hilly areas.
From now on, most people have basically moved back to their original towns and villages. If they have not moved away by now, they have basically agreed with the rule of the Wu Kingdom and have become naturalized citizens. They pay taxes and pay taxes according to the rules of the Wu Kingdom. Tribute, service.
This is already the best result!
"I didn't expect that there are so many forgotten people in the canyon?"
According to Old Man Mo, there are many living people in the canyon who have taken refuge in the canyon. If these people have not come out for more than 20 years, it is indeed a strategic disaster of the Wu Kingdom.
"If these people all entered the canyon, why hasn't anyone discovered them in the past 20 years or so?"
Song Siyuan became curious. If there were really so many people moving in the canyon, it would be impossible for them to disappear, and it was impossible for the guards to not notice them all. Could it be that their whereabouts were already mysterious? These many questions urged her to ask her doubts.
"Dead, all dead!"
The old man was eating, whimpering, and then raised the sweet potato: "All the plants in the canyon are poisonous, but the depth and intensity are different. People have been eating this kind of thing for 20 or 30 years, and the toxins in their bodies have been accumulating. He’s almost dead.”
"Those who survived like me have become invulnerable old monsters!"
Some people died, but not completely...
