Chapter 223 Soul-Guiding Technique
Bai Yi was busy for a few days, and when he came to Liuxia Village again, he could hardly believe his eyes.
Where is the villagers' hair?
What about the hair?
Did they all get sick and die?
If you don’t know, you might think you have come to some wild and desolate place.
Nearly half of the people had lost their hair. Moreover, those without hair held their heads high, looked cheerful, and did not look like they were sick.
"What's wrong with you? Where's your hair?"
"Sir! We must cut off our hair to show our resolve and our irreconcilable vengeance against Western Liao!"
What does irreconcilable hatred have to do with hair?
"The adults' awareness is not good enough..." The villager turned his head and muttered this.
Ding San came back after asking around, his face dazed.
“Sir, I told you that you don’t need to worry about Sang Ning being laughed at, and you still want to defend her by praising her in public.
She really has the ability to turn things around.”
So, I told Bai Yi why all the villagers cut their hair.
“Those who haven’t cut their hair are simply afraid of the cold and are waiting to cut it after next spring!
Now people in the village look up to people with short hair.”
"Sangning also composed a little tune:
I cut my hair and I am proud of it. It is clean, healthy and saves water and soap.
Cut off the withered and yellow branches and put an end to three thousand worries.
No need to comb or braid your hair, use your time to dig coal.
Make Liangzhou rich, develop it, and the people will be strong and the army will be powerful, so we will not be afraid of anything.
Men, women, young and old, all join the battle, unite and drive the jackals back home!"
Bai Yi: “…”
Ding San sighed: "Sir, I haven't learned enough, far from enough..."
Sang Ning is such a talented person!
Not everyone can be a treacherous minister, and he now admires treacherous ministers immensely!
"Sir, shall we still give awards?"
"A commendation? Aren't you very good at speaking now? Just say a few nice words. Forget about the food and property. I need it more than they do!"
Ding San: "...Sir, aren't you going to visit your aunt?"
"Let me think about it."
What's there to think about? Ding San was confused.
Bai Yi turned and left.
Along the way, his mind was full of how to resolve the engagement he was carrying.
In the coal yard.
Zhu Fansheng stroked his short hair and said with a laugh, "Don't tell me, I wasn't used to it when I first cut it, but now I feel more and more comfortable. Xiaoyong, what do you think?"
"Yes, it is indeed very comfortable." Zhao Xiaoyong replied naively.
"I see Xiaolian has been coming to your house a lot lately. Are you planning to be together again?"
"Well... let's talk about it after we have enough food."
Zhu Fansheng stopped what he was doing, put his hands on the shovel, and said in the tone of an elder brother: "Xiaoyong, if you are determined, don't wait. Although Xiaolian was married before, it was out of necessity.
I've been taking care of your mother for the past two years, and I'm deeply loyal to you. If you want to marry, each of our brothers will contribute some money to you, and we'll pay you back slowly in the future."
"Okay, Brother Fansheng, I'll go home and discuss this with Mom."
Zhao Xiaoyong worked faster. After finishing the work at hand, he left early without shoveling the soil again.
He returned home and heard Xiaolian talking to his mother again.
He first went to the kitchen, poured out all the water in the water tank and took a bath, then picked up two buckets of water, hung them on a shoulder pole and carried them to the yard.
Xiaolian ran out when she heard the sound.
Seeing Zhao Xiaoyong who had just finished taking a shower, her face turned as red as an apple.
Brother Xiaoyong is stronger and more manly than in previous years.
"Xiao Lian, I'm sorry to trouble you to fetch water again." Zhao Xiaoyong felt very apologetic.
"I don't know what's going on, but my household registration is still on hold and I can't even get water."
At the Moon Well, there are yamen runners checking, and every person who draws water is recorded.
Zhao Xiaoyong’s previous household registration was destroyed and the new one was not obtained, so he couldn’t go.
Aunt Goose was very puzzled. In the past, she could draw enough water for half a month, but her son only used half a tank of water a day.
She is old and can't pick so many things, but she can't always trouble Xiaolian.
"Can't you be more frugal? Does a grown man really need to take a bath once a day?"
"Mom, the coal dust is dirty and makes me uncomfortable." Zhao Xiaoyong said apologetically, "I'll go to the government office again to urge the household registration."
Xiaolian quickly said, "It's okay, Auntie. I'll go pick it up. Brother Xiaoyong likes to be clean, it's a good habit."
Her face turned red again, and she lowered her head and picked up the shoulder pole.
After she left, Aunt Goose pointed at her son, feeling dissatisfied but reluctant to criticize him too harshly.
"You, you, when did you develop this problem? In Liangzhou, no one bathes every day!"
"Hurry up and find Xiaolian's father to set a date and marry Xiaolian. This will save her from coming here every day and being gossiped about."
"I understand, mother. Let's wait a few days until the government distributes grain. We can collect a bushel of grain as a betrothal gift."
"Okay, okay." Aunt Goose smiled happily.
Xiaolian, who had returned, heard this clearly.
She hid at the door, her heart pounding, and she covered her mouth in surprise.
I originally wanted to come back because I saw some gray powder on the wall of the barrel and found something to wipe it off, but now I feel embarrassed to go in.
…
In the middle of the night, Sang Ning was awakened from his sleep by a shrill voice.
"Danger, danger, Shiro is in danger! Shiro is in danger... danger..."
The noise made her head explode!
At the same time, his face turned pale.
Huo Changan is in danger!
Based on previous experience, it is a matter of life and death!
She could sense it from such a long distance, but she couldn't help!
Sang Ning was worried and kept his eyes open in the dark night, unable to fall asleep again.
The person you just thought you had forgotten has come back again in this form.
As soon as it was daybreak, she asked Qin Wangyuan to go and find out the news.
On this day, someone from the Huo family came again.
It’s the mind reader Langye.
A mind reader is actually a great psychologist.
Langya is also good at hypnosis.
They call it soul-calling.
Guide the soul, guide the soul, guide the soul out of the body, and watch everything that happened in the past as a bystander.
"My wife has been missing her lover a lot lately and needs more rest."
Langxie was in his forties and looked like an ordinary and amiable man. He smiled and spoke to Sang Ning first.
What? She is disturbed by the noise of the space!
The Huo family members all looked understood.
Sang Ning was not convinced, but was too lazy to refute.
Xinyuerong couldn't wait any longer.
"Langxie, can you elicit my daughter's memories from when she was three years old?"
"As long as there are sporadic memory points, they can be elicited."
"I don't want to!" Mo Cuiyu refused abruptly, extremely resistant.
She looked at Sang Ning with fear in her eyes.
