On the first day of rebirth, the school beauty secretly teased me

Chapter 350
Chapter 480
Shen Xiluo waited until the sun had set before she dared to come out of the dense forest, and then carefully observed the surroundings, and after finding no one, she trotted towards her home.

The geographical location of the houses in Dulong Village is also very feudal. Their villages do not build houses on a flat land as usual, but choose places like terraced fields, and some are even built on cliffs.

This is also to prevent houses from being flooded by rain in such a rainy place, but more importantly, it is the lineage hierarchy. The higher the seniority and status of the family, the higher the place to live.

There are two types of houses for the Dulong people. The northern part of the Dulong River Basin is mostly wooden houses, and the southern part is mostly bamboo houses!Whether it is a wooden house or a bamboo house, it is rectangular, built on the back of the mountain and piled, usually two or three feet above the ground.

Since ancient times, due to geographical restrictions, the only Dulong people who live in the Dulong River Canyon have little contact with the outside world, and the entire Dulong Village is still in a state of poverty today.

They lived along the river and built their traditional wooden houses on a slightly open sloping land where people could stand!The houses are built into large and small villages by the mountains and rivers.

In this way, it can be ventilated and damp-proof. The walls around the wooden building are rafters arranged from bottom to top, covered with wooden boards chopped with machetes, and covered with wooden boards or woven bamboo strips.

The bamboo strip house is surrounded by woven bamboo strips as walls, covered with thatch, and covered with bamboo strips!Most of the wooden houses are divided into two floors. The upper floor is for people, and the lower floor is for livestock. There are wooden ladders to go up and down.

In the long historical development process before building villages and houses, Dulong people have experienced the transitional stages of nest-dwelling, cave-dwelling, and living in trees.

Shen Xiluo's family lives at the bottom of the entire Dulong Village, and someone from the village chief's house on the mountainside happened to see her 'sneaky' figure.

"Hey~ My sister is back..."

The village chief yelled, and the whole village came out of the house, and then looked towards the path at the bottom. When they saw Shen Xiluo, they all started yelling too.

The people in the village of Shen Xiluo's family are proficient in Chinese, but they seldom use Chinese when speaking among themselves.

When Shen Xiluo was seen by the village chief, her body froze immediately, and she quickened her pace to go home!One of her hearts has already reached her throat.

From last night to now, she hasn't even closed her eyes, she's already so sleepy!The purpose is not to be discovered by the villagers, and then sneak back home, have a simple coming-of-age ceremony, and the family will leave secretly.

As a result, now, all previous efforts have been wasted...

Shen Xiluo lowered her head and quickened her pace to return home. As soon as she entered the door, a middle-aged woman with a tattooed face just walked out of the house. When she saw that it was indeed her daughter, she smiled wryly, and then ran over tenderly. , and hugged Shen Xiluo in her arms distressedly.

"Honey, why are you coming back? I didn't mean you don't come back for the coming-of-age ceremony!"

The middle-aged woman's face was bruised and purple, but it was not an injury, but a lifelong imprint of Dulong Village.

Even though there are tattoos on the middle-aged woman's face, she can still clearly see that the outline is [-]% similar to Shen Xiluo's. If the tattoos are ignored, she was definitely a one-in-a-million beauty when she was young.

"Mom, I was studying in Chahar and found someone I like!"

When Shen Xiluo faced her close relatives, she didn't have the timidity when she was talking to others. In addition, she had been seen by the village chief when she came back, so she wanted to make a long story short. When she spoke, it sounded like she was not unfamiliar at all. .

"What are you talking about? Baby, your mother was almost thrown into the Nu River before, it was your father..."

The middle-aged woman was sobbing when she said this.

She was born and bred in Dulong. She went to the mountains to collect herbs and accidentally injured her leg. Then she was rescued by a young man from a foreign race.
The young man took good care of her for two months, until her leg injury had long since healed, but he still pretended not to be well, and got along with the young man for half a year, and then she was forced to return to Dulong Village in desperation.

After the two parted, she tried to escape from Dulong Village several times to find the young man, but every time she was caught by the village chief and locked up!

The young man was also anxious, after thinking twice, he decided to come to Dulong Village to find her, but as soon as he entered the village, he was surrounded by the village head and many people.

In the end, the young man was caught in a pig cage and then thrown into the Nu River...

She was willing to commit suicide by throwing herself into the river for the young man, only to find out that she was pregnant with a child!

In order to leave offspring for the young man, she endured the scolding of the villagers in Dulong Village, and willingly accepted the "punishment" at the coming-of-age ceremony!Then let their daughter be born smoothly!Hence, there is Shen Xiluo!
As for her grandma, it was actually her grandma. Grandma only had her mother as a daughter, and she raised her as a son since she was a child.

Another reason is that her mother felt that Shen Xiluo had no father since she was a child, and she didn't know how to answer if she asked where her father was when she grew up. So, from the time she first learned to speak, she asked her to call her grandma grandmother.

If she asked where her father had gone, her mother would send him to find grandma, and then her mother would find a place to wipe her tears alone...

Of course, what kind of lie is it that grandma is beautiful to tell, so what should I say? Tell her that Dad has gone fishing in the Nu River, and he won’t be back until a long time later!So the childhood Shen Xi believed it.

After Shen Xiluo grew up a little bit, she asked about her father again, but her mother still couldn't face the sad ending, so she left it to grandma to answer.

Grandma told her that Dad was swallowed by the Nu River!Maybe I won't be able to come back later.

At that time, Shen Xiluo would say, I want to go outside to learn knowledge, and I want to find out whether my father can come back!How could fishing be swallowed by the Nu River?And the Nu River is so fast-moving, how can you fish?

Back then, Shen Xiluo was like a girl with a hundred thousand whys. Ever since she discovered the mystery of writing, she became crazily obsessed with writing and culture.

Her outstanding talent has also attracted the attention of the people of Dulong Village. If Dulong Village wants to achieve substantial development, learning advanced culture is an imperative trend.

Relying on slash-and-burn farming, they will never be able to get out of the valley!Surrounded by mountains and rivers, you can rely on mountains to eat! Mountains rely on water to eat water!But after entering old age, they have a more cruel custom than facial tattoos.

That is, once a person reaches the age of 60, he will leave home and enter the virgin forest to fend for himself!
This is an even more inhumane, even utterly brutal vulgarity.

And Shen Xiluo's grandma is 56 years old this year, and she will leave home in three and a half years, and then...

Fortunately, in the previous life, Ling Yan appeared in time and took the old man to live in Chahar. Otherwise, Shen Xiluo might never have any relatives in this world.

The same tragedy happened to every family of the Dulong people, and some of them felt inhumanely that this was what it should have been.

And most people are reluctant to let their parents and grandparents leave home. Their so-called self-destruction will definitely not be like the wild survival programs that Ling Yan watched in his previous life, where they can hunt prey in the wild and continue to live.

Those who leave home, they will really fend for themselves, find a quiet place, and wait to die in place!
They think this is reincarnation, and the struggle is pointless...

"Mom, I won't retrace the path you walked on! You and grandma will celebrate my coming-of-age ceremony for me, and then the three of us will leave this village that has been corrupted by bad habits."

Shen Xiluo looked at her mother with firm eyes. At this time, grandma also came out of the house. Similarly, like her mother, grandma is also a face tattooed person in Dulong Village.

"Yaomeier..."

When grandma saw that Shen Xiluo had really returned, a gleam of light flashed in her cloudy eyes. She decided that no matter what this time, she couldn't watch her granddaughter get tattooed!Grandma had had her face tattooed back then, and knew how disgusting that hateful habit was, and then Shen Xiluo's mother had her face tattooed again, and grandma hated this village to the core.

"Grandma! Let's go home."

Shen Xiluo took her mother's hand, and the mother and daughter walked up to grandma. The three generations of grandparents and grandchildren entered the bamboo strip room, then bolted the door, put two bamboo sticks on the door, and then went up to the second floor.
