Chapter 639 Leaving Maaopo
Chapter 639 Leaving Maaopo
Jiang Wenming saw many villagers hurriedly running to collect cotton and cloth. Just as they were about to leave, a clear and loud voice rang out in the air: "Welcome!"
The sudden sound made Zhang An stop in his tracks. He stood there blankly as if he was under a spell.
The villagers who were originally running towards the cotton and cloth excitedly were frightened by the strange sound and fled in panic.
Chen Meng was so frightened that his soul was about to be blown away. Like a frightened rabbit, he jumped onto Zhang An's back and hugged his neck tightly, muttering: "Ghost! There is a ghost!"
Jiang Wenming seemed quite calm. He gathered himself and then walked towards the village entrance where the "sizzling" sound came from.
Walking closer, he took a wooden stick from Zhang An's hand and carefully poked it in the soil on the ground, as if looking for something.
"What is that black thing?" Zhang An finally came back to his senses from his fear. He pushed Chen Meng, who was lying on him, away, then moved forward curiously and saw a black corner exposed in the soil turned over by the wooden stick.
Jiang Wenming quickly took out a handkerchief from his pocket and carefully wrapped the black horn. He pulled it gently, and the thing hidden in the soil was successfully taken out.
"welcome!"
At this moment, a clear and loud voice came from the small black box again.
Hearing this sound, several people looked at each other, and they all thought in their hearts: This must be the work of that little guy Jiang Jiyun again!
Jiang Wenming looked at it for a while and found a small switch next to it. He pushed it to the side with his finger, and the welcome voice disappeared. Then he wrapped the small black box with a handkerchief and put it in his pocket.
"Master... where is the ghost? Have you caught it?" The village chief hid tremblingly behind a big rock at the entrance of the village. He only dared to stick his head out and asked Jiang Wenming with a terrified face.
Jiang Wenming nodded calmly and said comfortingly, "We have dealt with all the ghosts in your village. There won't be any more in the future."
Hearing this, the village chief's body, which was originally shaking like a sieve, suddenly straightened up as if it had been injected with a shot of cardiotonic.
His voice trembled with excitement. "Thank you, thank you, Master! You are truly a great benefactor to our village!"
The matter at Yutoupo was finally dealt with, and Jiang Wenming and his party returned to Maaopo.
When they walked into the Yu family's courtyard, they saw several older children of the Yu family sitting around Jiang Jiyun, listening attentively to what she was saying.
Yu Heyu, Yu Hetong and other older children all followed Jiang Jiyun very seriously to learn how to make drugs and antidotes.
They knew very well that even if these things were not used to fight the Japanese, these prescriptions would be of great use in dealing with wild beasts.
Jiang Jiyun saw how hard they were studying. After they could recite the prescription fluently, they were ready to use the herbs Jiang Jiyun brought out to make the medicine.
After being charmed several times, they finally mastered the technique.
After Jiang Jiyun finally didn't have to clean up the mess, her face suddenly became serious, and she said to them solemnly, "You must not disclose this prescription, lest it be used by people with ulterior motives to commit illegal acts."
"This prescription can only rot in your minds. You must never let anyone else know. If you weren't my brothers, I would never tell you such an important prescription."
Yu Hetong knew the seriousness of this thing, and he assured her, "Don't worry, sister. We won't even tell our parents. If this thing gets out, it's really dangerous. People with bad intentions will use it to harm others."
Yu Heyu and the others nodded and promised not to tell anyone.
In the next few days, Jiang Jiyuan and his men taught the villagers how to use guns. They seized some guns and ammunition from bandits and Japanese devils.
In the blink of an eye, it was the day when Jiang Jiyun and his companions were about to leave.
Yu's mother hugged her little granddaughter tightly in her arms, her eyes full of reluctance.
"Grandma, don't be sad, I will write to you often." Jiang Jiyun looked at the old lady wiping her tears, feeling sad in his heart, and quickly comforted her gently.
Yu Tao also hurried to comfort the old lady: "Mom, the child still has to go to school. The educational resources in the big city are much better than our poor and remote place. She will live well there. When peace comes in the future, we can go see her again."
Yu's father silently took out a silver necklace and handed it to his wife.
The old lady took the silver collar with trembling hands, then hung it around Jiang Jiyun's neck, tears glistening in her eyes.
She said softly, "This is something every child in the family has. Your father has been away from home, so after this collar was made, we've been waiting for him to come back, get married, and have children. Now that you're back, it's time to put it on you."
Jiang Jiyun looked down at the silver collar around her neck, which had a safety lock on it. She looked up at the old lady and said, "Grandma, you must live well and wait for me to come back to see you next time."
During this period, she secretly gave Yu's father and mother spiritual water to regulate their bodies. She hoped that they could live a healthy life.
"Uncle Yu, Aunt Yu, take care of yourselves. We will bring Xiaoyun back to see you when we have the chance." Jiang Jiyuan walked over and said to the old couple.
Father Yu nodded and said, "Hurry up and get going. If you don't leave now, you won't be able to find a place to stay before dark."
After Yu's mother and several daughters-in-law handed them the prepared dry food, they stood where they were, following their figures as they walked away until they disappeared from their sight.
The old lady finally couldn't hold back her emotions anymore, tears flowed out of her eyes like a flood, and her voice became intermittent because of sobs.
Jiang Wenming, who was on the road, saw the little girl so sad and felt a little sorry for her. He whispered to her, "Don't cry anymore. They can't hear you anymore. It's useless to cry like this. Why don't you drink some water to moisten your throat first?"
Jiang Jiyun, who was lying on her brother's back and crying loudly, stopped crying when she heard Jiang Wenming's words.
She felt that her throat was indeed a little dry, so she stopped her dry howling and reached out to take out the kettle from her space.
Xiaotian, Xiaowei and others were originally tortured by Jiang Jiyun's shrill crying, but when they saw her suddenly stop, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
They never imagined that their uncle's words would have such a magical effect that the "magic sound" could disappear instantly.
Jiang Jiyun gulped down a few sips of water and was about to burst into tears again when Jiang Jiyuan suddenly interrupted, "Xiaoyun, you know what? Your brother Ma is so pitiful. His childhood sweetheart is already married!"
"Burp!" Jiang Jiyun was so stunned by the sudden news that he even forgot to cry.
She opened her eyes wide, staring straight at Jiang Jiyuan, and hiccups involuntarily began to form in her mouth.
After a long time, he finally spoke, "How could such a handsome guy like my brother Ma be abandoned like this?"
