Chapter 2 He Bo Marrying a Wife

"Gozi, please make it clear. If you don't draw lots in two days, why did you draw today?"

Yunmu had a calm face. Yunmu's family of four, except for the old man Yun and his wife, the rest were Yunmu and his younger sister Yunyue. He was two years older than his younger sister and had a good relationship since childhood.

The dog who came towards him was dark and sturdy, and his dress was not much different from Yunmu. His clothes were a little dirty, his trousers were half wet, and his knees were muddy. At a glance, he knew that he had traveled through mountains and rivers along the way to report the news and came in a hurry.

"Huhuhuhuhuhuhuhu... Muzi, it's... the river god temporarily gave the divine decree, and the temple wished that the adults with daughters from each family would draw lots, but the result... it happened to win your little sister."

Speaking of this, the dog's face was full of bitterness, as if the journey had drained his strength, depressed and sad.

Yunmu knew that Gouzi had always admired his younger sister. If it were in the past, he would have glared at Gouzi with anger. Dogs were also trying to hit my younger sister's attention. Lazy toad wanted to eat swan meat!

But now... Yun Mu's face became gloomy. It would be better for anyone to marry his younger sister than He Bo!

"My little sister is less than fourteen years old this year, so she doesn't need to draw lots this year."

There are rules in Baiyun Village. A woman only starts drawing lots after she is fourteen years old, and she draws at least four times. She can only get married after she is eighteen years old.

"Who knows that it was the decree of the River God."

Yunmu was silent when he heard this.

In Baiyun Village, the Baixi River God is the sky, and there is no reason at all.

Thinking of this, Yunmu didn't say much and hurried back home with the old cow that was still gnawing on the grass.

Gouzi watched Yunmu leave and wanted to chase after him, but after thinking about it, he stopped his pace and stood there blankly, with red eyes.

......

Yunmu knew very well that since there were immortals and Buddhas, the legends of monsters, ghosts and gods that were circulating in the countryside were likely to exist.

And now, Yunmu happened to meet him by chance.

If Yao Yun had been searching for the fate of immortality in his previous life but could not get it, he would have been very happy when he encountered such a thing, but now he has no good mood.

Although ghosts, gods and monsters are strong and weak, the weakest martial arts masters can deal with them. For example, he had killed ghosts and monsters in his previous life, but he had just awakened Su Hui for a while and had a low cultivation level. It is undoubtedly a disaster or a blessing for him to encounter ghosts, gods and monsters at the beginning.

The most important thing is that this time it is related to my own girl.

Whether it is a blessing or a disaster, he cannot hide. He must face the Baixi River God directly, and may even face the entire Baiyun Village.

Baiyun Village is not just a village, but seven or eight villages of all sizes along the Baixi River, with a population of nearly 10,000, making it the largest settlement within a radius of fifty miles.

The local villagers mainly focus on the two major surnames "Bai" and "Yun". It is said that their ancestors were born in Green Forest heroes, but they settled here in order to avoid the encirclement of the government. They were very remote.

As the saying goes, relying on the mountains to eat the mountains and water to eat the water. The major villages in Baiyunzhai are built by the river, and they live a comfortable life. However, I don’t know when the Baixi River was "born" a river god.

According to legend, the Baixi River God has great magical powers and boundless magic power. In addition, the Baixi River is the mother river and the life river for the villagers. The villagers did not hesitate to build the Hebo Temple for the Baixi River God, and placed it on a shrine, worshiped day and night, and kept incense, praying for the Hebo blessing, good weather and good harvests every year.

It’s true that since the villagers of Baixizhai believe in and worship the Baixi River God, they will not only have good grains every year and the grain is full of food, but at least the villages in Baixizhai have never encountered floods and droughts again.

You should know that before, flooding is the norm.

Perhaps the river god was effective, the villagers of Baiyunzhai became more respectful and worshiped the Baixi River God, almost prostrating their bodies, and the incense in Hebo Temple became more and more prosperous.

However, the good times did not last long. The Baixi River God, who was protecting the people, quickly asked the Baiyunzhai villages to offer a young girl, which was called "He Bo married a wife."

At the beginning, the villagers who worship the Baixi River God were naturally happy to let their daughter serve Hebo and become relatives with Hebo. They would be proud of their face when they talked about it. The first year the villagers fought to marry their daughter to Hebo.

But who expected that He Bo would get married again the next year.

The simple people didn't care. The rich and noble families had many wives and concubines, not to mention the gods, so the people squeezed their heads and married their daughters.

In the third year, the Baixi River Gods got married again... and the people realized something was wrong.

The first lady He Bo went home to visit her relatives at first, but she never appeared since He Bo married the second wife and disappeared without a trace.

The same is true for the next few Lady Hebo. As long as she gets married, the former Lady Hebo will soon disappear.

The villagers are simple, but not stupid. They guessed where the disappearing "Madam He Bo" went, and they all understood that their daughter might be a disaster or a blessing for marrying the Baixi River God.

Whose daughter is not the flesh that falls from her parents? After working hard for more than ten years, the villagers naturally no longer want their daughter to serve the gods, and they are bullied and die young.

However, I am a fisherman, and the villagers of Baiyunzhai have no room for conditions in front of the Baixi River God.

Not to mention the magical powers of the River God, the consequences of anger will be unimaginable. The villagers themselves cannot get rid of their dependence on the protection of the River God.

So, Baiyun Village began to draw lots and draw lots to choose He Bo's wife.

Every year, "He Bo married a wife" has become a disaster in Baiyun Village, all kinds of small villages. Every villager with a daughter in his family prays not to draw his own daughter.

"Why did you win my little sister!"

Along the way, Yunmu was in a bad mood, especially after returning to the village, the villagers' gloating or pitying eyes made him feel even more frustrated. If he is not in this evil and barbaric world, he will never be able to understand what "darkness" is.

When he got home, Yunmu hurriedly drove the old cow into the cowshed and then headed straight to the main hall.

Before he entered the room, Yunmu heard Mica's deep crying sound. He heard his hoarse voice, he must have been crying for a long time.

As soon as he entered the room, Yunmu saw Old Man Yun sitting on the main seat with a calm face without saying a word, and could not see any emotion. Obviously, Old Man Yun, who had joined the army, was more calm than ordinary people.

Mica on the side cried into tears, and shed tears.

However, Yunyue, the little girl next to her, did not cry, but kept comforting Mica. She was so obedient and sensible that she felt a little distressing.

"Dalang, you are finally back, your little sister... wuwu..."

When Mica saw Yunmu come back, she looks even more excited and shed tears.

"Why are you crying? You have long hair and short knowledge. You will know how to cry every day!" Old Man Yun was a little impatient with Mica crying endlessly.

"Mom, I've heard from someone on the road, don't worry."

Yunmu hurriedly approached and comforted Mica, and then his eyes fell on his younger sister.

The little girl Yunyue wore a floral dress and simply tied a braid and naturally drooped. She looked pretty and charming. Although she was only fourteen years old, you can still see from her eyebrows that this girl is a beauty and she will never be as beautiful as ever. Not to mention that she is charming, there are at least few people in Baiyun Village. It’s no wonder that dogs and Tiezhu are thinking about them all day long.

"Brother, please comfort your mother quickly. It's not a big deal. Serve the River God is not a dead end. Many sisters have come back to visit their relatives before. As long as I am well-behaved and obedient enough to please the River God, I might be more delicious and spicy in the future..."

The little girl Yunyue looked not sad at all, but on the contrary, there seemed to be a little "longing" in her innocent eyes.

Old Man Yun and his family were silent. Everyone understood that this was deceiving themselves, but no one exposed it. Even Mica, who was crying endlessly, stopped crying.

Yunmu wanted to say something, but then the little sister spoke again.

"Brother, our family is rich. I heard that the Hebo Temple Fair gave our family a generous dowry. You can also ask for a beautiful sister-in-law at that time..."

"Hehehehe, people outside say that the elder brother sometimes has no brains and can't get a wife. Humph, they don't know Lingyunmu..."

"I know my elder brother is wise and stupid..."

......

Before awakening Su Hui, Yunmu's memories of the past and present life were intertwined and collided, and most of the time it was no different from normal people. However, occasionally his mind would be confused from time to time and fall into the eyes of others, Yunmu seemed a little stupid.

Even though Yunmu appears normal on weekdays and is even smarter than his peers, people in the countryside are often verbally sarcastic. Over time, Yunmu has become famous in the villages.

As the saying goes, people are afraid. For this reason, Yun’s father and Mica have both worried about whether Yunmu can win the wife he likes. Obviously, the younger sister also keeps it firmly in her heart.

"Brother, our family has money..."

My sister's thoughts came from my ears, awakening Su Hui, and the strong Yunmu in her heart broke her defense!

In the last life, Yunmu did not have a "family" in the traditional sense. In that era of "few births and aging", more and more people were unwilling to give birth to offspring. For this reason, countries and regions had to take corresponding measures to prevent a sharp decline in population...

Yunmu was born in this era.

He was born from an "embryo factory" and raised socially. To him, "parents" are just chromosome-providing people, and that's all.

Even the names of the previous life were randomly selected and meaningless. Compared with the earnest expectations contained in the "cloud trees" in this life, it was a thousand miles apart. It was not a pity to throw them into the garbage dump.

This is also why he, who was a human being for two lifetimes, accepted the name "Yunmu" and the family behind it.

Home, what a heartwarming word.

"Brother, our family is rich!"

Yunmu's head seemed to be hit by a giant object, and the little girl's voice echoed over and over again in his mind.
