Chapter 289 Peach Blossom Spring
Before the village chief could speak, the middle-aged woman said, "Of course, that's OK. The three girls from last time looked bad and were too thin, so I didn't argue with Sister Li and the others. I looked good at these, you can choose first!"
Although the current situation is very unfavorable to the few of them, when Song Jiang heard the conversation between the mother and daughter, he couldn't help but ask with a smile, "Miss Cuicui, which one do you like?!"
When Cuicui heard Song Jiang say this, she quickly shook her head and said, "You must not be able to... I don't say that she is too short, but she is still so thin!"
After hearing this, Song Jiang was a little dissatisfied and said, "I am still short by 1.7 meters?"
Unexpectedly, Cui Cui looked at Meng Zhe and the other three and said something to kill people, "Which one of them is not higher than you..."
Song Jiang was choked and lost his temper. He said with a frustrated self-esteem, "What's the use of growing up? Is it important to have a brain?"
Cuicui became interested as soon as she heard this, "What do you mean is you are smart?"
"It's okay!" Song Jiang said guiltily.
"Forget it, the man I want cannot be too smart, otherwise I will not be able to keep it well..." Cui Cui refused decisively.
At this time, Cui Cui's mother pointed at Zhou Shiwu and said, "Just this, you will be good at first glance, and you will definitely be able to give birth! Don't send it to the peach forest in a while, just keep it at our home..."
Zhou Shi was almost so angry that he rolled his eyes when he heard this. He probably had never received such treatment in his life. Song Jiang said with a sympathy, "Fifth Brother, look at how good your market is!"
Cui Cui's mother saw that Song Jiang was talking sarcastically, and she advised him kindly, "Young man, don't think it's not good to stay in Taohuawu. The men here all live like the emperor. They can reach out and eat, and they all talk at home and outside, but the premise is that you must stay here steadily."
After hearing this, Song Jiang smiled and said, "What if we are not happy? What are you going to do?"
"What else can I do? Just keep it... until you are happy!" Cui Cui said naturally.
When Song Jiang heard this, he shook his head and said, "It's definitely not a solution to keep him in check. What if he doesn't like to be stubborn? You can't keep him in touch for the rest of his life!"
Cui Cui's mother laughed and said, "It won't last a lifetime. If he has been in charge of ten or eight years, he will naturally no longer think about leaving here."
"How can I have a baby after ten or eight years of imprisonment?" Song Jiang said in surprise.
Unexpectedly, Cui Cui's mother burst out laughing and said, "You can tell at first that you are still a young man. Can you not have a child if you are locked up? You can give birth to whatever you want."
Song Jiang couldn't stand such a bold aunt, and quickly turned the topic with a red face and said, "I didn't know why you wanted to steal a man back after talking for a long time. Can't you just do some normal love between men and women?"
At this time, Bai Shaofei said in a deep voice, "There has never been any normal love between men and women in Taohuawu. There is only the responsibility of making the race reproduce. You guys really shouldn't be driven by curiosity to come back..."
The village chief also agreed after hearing this, "Yes, I have really given you a chance. Why did you have to return after all the time?!"
"I can't understand why you do this?! I think the women in Taohuawu look normal, they are not bald or blind, so it should be easy to find a man normally!" Song Jiang said with a puzzled look on his face.
Cui Cui's mother sighed after hearing this, "It's okay to tell you now. You must know sooner or later... Have you heard of the Peach Blossom Land?"
Song Jiang nodded and said, "I heard that, what's wrong? Don't tell me that Taohuawu is the Peach Blossom Land?! This place is too different from Taohuayuan!?"
Cui Cui's mother sighed as soon as she heard this, "What you know is the Peach Blossom Land in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. More than a thousand years have passed since then. How can the things in this world remain unchanged? In order to avoid secular disputes, we migrate to sparsely populated places every few dozen generations, but now the space that can be left for us to survive is becoming more and more limited."
Song Jiang initially thought that Cui Cui's mother was an ordinary rural aunt. Now it seems that the women in Taohuawu should not be underestimated! Then Cui Cui's mother told Song Jiang and others about the origin of Taohuawu and the real reason why they had to tie men back for generations...
The ancestors of Taohuawu initially chose to live in seclusion in order to avoid the wars during the Qin Dynasty, but their real situation at that time was still very different from the description in the Taohuayuan.
Because the Qin Dynasty was too heavy, the men in the village either died in war or were arrested to build the Great Wall. Therefore, the villagers who ran into the mountains to escape were actually only the elderly, weak, women and children in the village.
In order to survive, they brought the few food rations into the vast mountains, trying to find a suitable place to settle down. Unfortunately, the group had eaten up all the food rations after walking in the mountains. Just when everyone was about to starve to death, two strange women appeared to save them...
The two women claimed to be alchemists living in seclusion in the mountains. Seeing that they were so pitiful, they appeared and gave some dry food... After everyone was saved, they naturally thanked them and told them that they were all ordinary villagers and came to the deep mountains to find a suitable place to live in seclusion.
Perhaps it was because everyone was a woman, and after hearing this, the two female priests took them to their place where they lived. It was a flat canyon with peach forests in the valley and a clear spring in the peach forest with water all year round. It should not be a problem for them to settle here.
The women in the village were all very happy after hearing this, so with the help of these two female priests, they rebuilt houses in the canyon and reclaimed fertile land. Life gradually got better...
This kind of life lasted for about ten years, until one day, the women in the village discovered a problem, that is, they were all getting older day by day, but the two female priests who rescued them did not change their faces.
Women all love beauty, so they asked the female wise men for the art of maintaining beauty. Unexpectedly, the other party told them that they did not know how to maintain beauty. The reason why they never grow old is probably related to the mermaids they caught in the spring...
When they passed by this place, they saw that there were awesome spiritual things here, so they speculated that there might be some amazing immortal things nearby... It turns out that what they pursued throughout their lives was nothing more than the art of immortality. If they could find a magical immortal object with spiritual energy to refine the elixir of immortality, wouldn’t they realize their lifelong wish?
