Someone on the bank shouted: "Pu Dafu, your river has a good harvest this year."
According to the information they checked, the Jiaopo River was contracted to raise fish by a man named Pu Dafu in the village.
It has been contracted for more than ten years, and every year is a bumper harvest.
Chapter 96
Yun Yu and the others stood on the shore and watched the return of the fishing boat full of aquatic products, and their hearts gradually filled with chills and anger.
Wu Xiaohuan said that Pei He was sent to sacrifice to the river god, and it should be here. They guessed that at least two lives would be thrown into the river every year for sacrifice. It was said that it was used to sacrifice to the river god, but who knows. What the hell is it about?
Yun Yu was furious, and some of her anger could not be suppressed. She couldn't help but take two steps forward. Long Qixiao held him back and whispered, "Don't be impulsive."
Yun Yu pursed her lower lip, lowered her eyes and said, "I see."
Qin Yusui held her hand and protected the person behind him.
In addition to the villagers of Jiaopo Village, the people around here are also fishmongers, who came to collect fish on purpose.
Someone noticed a few of them and said with a smile, "Are you here to travel nearby? That's really bad luck. If you came two days ago, you could see the fish king picked up by the rich family, and it was auctioned for 580,000. The price! This is the first time in years that I have seen such a large fish, which is a good sign."
Long Qixiao stepped forward and patted the brother on the shoulder, "Brother, are you here to buy fish?"
The man said excitedly: "No, although I can't take the fish king, but the fish raised by Dafu is delicious and the meat is fresh and tender. Every year we fishmongers come to buy fish from him. , he also gave it, today is almost the last day, a lot of people came, this is the last wave, you came at the wrong time."
"Isn't it just a few fish, how good can it taste? Can it be compared to shark's fin and bird's nest?" Long Qixiao said meaningfully.
"Why can't it be compared? I can tell you that the aquatic products we eat around here are all fished from the river in Dafu, and the aquatic products in the nearby restaurants are the best selling, and many people buy them back and make their own. to eat."
This fish didn't know what to eat to grow up, so Long Qixiao immediately decided not to order aquatic products when he went to a nearby town for dinner at night.
The fishing boat had docked, and everyone was busy, pushing Yunyu and the others to the back.
In the crowd, an old man in his 60s noticed a few people and walked over quietly and said, "Dolls, what are you doing here?"
Yunyu saw the old man Yintang with evil spirits, and there were lives on her body. She didn't want to speak, and quietly huddled in Qin Yusui's arms.
Long Qixiao glanced at the old man and said with a smile: "Old man, we are here for a tour. We heard that the scenery in the nearby mountains is beautiful, so we came here to play."
The old man relaxed a little and smiled, "Yes, yes, we are indeed beautiful here, but if you want to go to the mountains to play, it is best to go up in the morning, after a walk around, you can go to town for lunch at noon, now it's three or four o'clock. Now, it will be dark soon, and it is not safe to go up the mountain."
"It's alright, we'll go around at will, don't worry, old man."
The old man said: "That's fine, but we don't keep people in our village at night, and we don't keep any money, and there is no place to eat in the village. You'd better leave the village early."
Long Qixiao said yes, and then asked the old man, "I don't know who the old man is?"
The old man stroked his gray beard, "I'm the mayor of this village." As he was talking, he glanced at Yunyu who was shrunk behind him. Seeing her slightly bulging belly, his cloudy eyes instantly lit up. , just noticing the number of them, the old man's eyes faded.
"It's the village chief." Long Qixiao laughed and asked, "Village chief, I heard that there is a Taoist temple in your village. We want to go to pay homage, but I don't know if we can go?"
The old man became vigilant, "What are you doing at the Taoist temple?"
Long Qixiao sighed, "What else can I do, I've been unlucky recently. I heard from the people nearby that there are Taoist temples here, so I thought of saying goodbye when I went up the mountain to see the scenery, and I hope to bless us well."
The old man sighed, "That's right, but our Taoist temple here generally only allows people from our village to worship. For foreign guests, the Taoist temple's main character is very casual, not asking for pilgrims, just looking at fate, you will meet in the mountains if you have the fate. See you."
This is really perfunctory, it is the first time have seen a Taoist temple that does not seek pilgrims.
Long Qixiao sneered inwardly, without showing her face, thanked the village chief and left.
Leaving the river, several people wandered around the village.
Song Ziming said: "That village chief is eccentric, and there is a problem at first sight. Daoist Dongfu will definitely stay in that Taoist temple. As long as Daoist Dongfu is removed, the remaining villagers should not be afraid."
Long Wenyin nodded, "We are mainly dealing with the Daoists of Dongfu, and she should have made the sacrifice of living people. The line that my cousin found out, the Daoists of Dongfu seemed to disappear at that time, and then the village gradually became richer. stand up."
"Then when will we go up the mountain to find someone?" Long Qichen asked.
"Tomorrow morning." Long Qixiao walked slowly, looking very leisurely, "It's not convenient to go up the mountain now when it's dark, after all, it's the old witch's territory, it's safer during the day, we'll just go around the village. Let's go to the town to eat and rest in a while, and tomorrow morning we'll go hiking." He looked at Yunyu as he spoke, "Is there any problem with my brother and sister?"
Yunyu was pregnant, so he was quite worried.
Along the way, Yunyu didn't speak, and now she said softly, "It's alright."
Long Qichen and Long Wenyin were hesitant to say anything. They are both still in a trance now, and Yunyu is also their friend. Before the Imperial Capital Exchange Conference, they joined a group, and occasionally chatting in the group took off, but now their good friends are not. became a cousin.
Several people wandered around the village, which has a large ancestral hall.
