I Can See Through All Information Chapter 33

Chapter 33 Rules for going out

“Brother Da'an, is brother Da'an at home?”

In front of an earthen house, Lu Qing shouted.

"Who, who is calling me?" A tall figure ran out of the house. When he saw Lu Qing, he was suddenly surprised, "It's you, Ah Qing, what do you want from me?"

“Da'an, who is it?”

Before Lu Qing could answer, an old voice came out. An old man grabbed a bamboo pipe and walked out of the house.

“Grandpa, it's Ah Qing who's here!” Wang Daan shouted directly.

“Grandpa Wang.” Lu Qing said hello to the old man.

“Then how to leave a mark on it?” Lu Qing asked.

He really didn't expect that the big tree that the original owner was afraid of in his memory had such an origin.

“Here?” Lu Qing looked at the big tree, a little confused.

Wang Da'an pulled Lu Qing and walked out.

“Here, let me tie it for you.”

Lu Qing thought the same thing.

Wang Daan stepped forward and lifted up a stone slab under the tree.

Not only do people usually smoke incense, but the children in the village are warned from an early age that they are strictly prohibited from playing nearby, and they are not allowed to climb.

“In this way, if someone does not return in time, the village can still know where he is going based on the mark he left.”

If anyone is caught violating the prohibition, he or she will be beaten and even more serious, he or she will be starved and kneeled in the ancestral hall.

“Brother Da'an, is the road to the city dangerous?” Lu Qing couldn't help but ask after hearing these rules.

He was very happy to be able to stop hunting hogweeds. The work was so boring.

Grandpa Wang took two puffs of cigarette and said: "In this case, Da'an, you should take Ah Qing for a trip. He is now the head of the family, so he should know the rules of going out."

Of course he knew about this big tree. It was not very tall, but it was very strong, with lush branches and leaves. The trunk was so thick that it would take several people to hug it.

“However, it is said that the group of bandits were later exterminated by the county lord and the city lord, so peace was restored on the road.”

Wang Da settled for a moment and then said: "I can't say it's dangerous. Fortunately, the road has been quite peaceful these years. But I heard from my grandfather that bandits appeared on the road before, and someone was arrested in the next village. It took several years to escape."

“That's it, what else could we do?” Wang Daan was a little confused.

When Lu Qing said this, he suddenly came to his senses.

He had forgotten that most of the people in the village were illiterate.

"Whenever you go out from now on, tie a red string around it, so that people in the village will know that someone has gone out." "When you come back, just take off the red string."

"No, Grandpa Wang, I have something to see Brother Da'an, so I won't come into the house to disturb you." Lu Qing declined quickly.

“That's it, I'm fine with that. It's just that Grandpa Gang wants to ask me to hunt pigweed.” Wang Daan scratched his head.

“But if you are going to the city or somewhere further away, at least two people should go out so that they can take care of each other.”

Lu Qing was shocked.

“If no one from our village wants to go to the city, you can call to the next village to see if anyone wants to go with you. The rules for going out in our villages are similar.”

However, Lu Qing did not ask in detail. The day was still long, so he could ask more slowly in the future.

“I want to go to Daji. Didn't Brother Daan say last time that if I went to Daji, I would come to see you. There are some rules that I need to know.”

“I'm not in a hurry to sell the fish, I want to go to the market first to have a look, understand the situation, and buy something on the way.”

“By the way, what do you want from me?” Wang Daan asked.

I think besides worshiping gods, what the villagers pray for more is the safety of those who go out.

“Hey, it's Ah Qing, come on, come on, come in and sit in the house.”

“Do you think we are all like you, Ah Qing? You know so many words, but who can write your own name?”

Similarly, the term "lord of the county" also made him somewhat concerned.

“It was also from that time that our villages gradually established the current rules for going out.”

“Don't you need to put up a sign or other sign? Otherwise, how will everyone know who has traveled far away?” Lu Qing asked.

And this big tree seems to be quite important.

93.145.174.22

“Let's go, Ah Qing, let's talk on the way.”

“You can write your name on the sign...”

“This big tree actually has such a use?” Lu Qing was surprised.

“Okay, Grandpa, don't worry, I will definitely teach Ah Qing!” Wang Daan said happily.

Sure enough, the world is not as peaceful as he thought.

Under such circumstances, in fact, not many people usually leave the village, so it really doesn't have to be that troublesome.

Some villagers may have never traveled far in their entire lives.

It looks a bit like the banyan tree from the previous life.

So the children in the village stayed away from this big tree and would rather play in the mud elsewhere than dare to play on it.

He thought it would be complicated, but he didn't expect it to be so simple.

Now from what Brother Da'an thinks, it seems that it has another purpose?

"Yes, this big tree is the sacred tree of our village, and it is also the tree of faith. Everyone in the village who goes out to do errands, whether they are going to the market or going to the city, must leave a mark here to indicate their whereabouts. "

He said: "Ah Qing, the first rule when going to the market is here."

I will not go out at will unless necessary.

Bandits!

Wang Daan handed one of the red ropes to Lu Qing, pointed at the tree and said:

However, Lu Qing also understood why everyone usually burned incense under this tree.

"it's here."

In fact, in an ancient world like this, villagers were very cautious about going out.

“Originally, everyone thought he had died outside. It was only after he escaped back that they found out he had been captured by bandits.”

"And there is no need to go to such trouble. The village is so big. If you see that the red rope has not been taken off, just ask in the village and you will know who has not come back."

“In addition, there is another rule in the village. The big market is not far from our village. If you want to go, you can go there alone, as long as you tie a red rope here.”

When I came back, I already had two red ropes in my hand.

Wang Daan tied two red ropes to the branches on the left.

"Have you seen that among the old branches on the sacred tree, the ones on the left represent the great gathering, the ones in the middle represent the city, and the ones on the right represent other distant gates."

However, in his memory, he could not find the real purpose of this big tree. He only thought that it was to worship gods and seek peace.

“Is that it?” Lu Qing was stunned.

“Ah Qing, what are you going to do in Daji? Selling fish?” Wang Daan asked.

“Going to the city is no better than going to a large gathering. Only when there are more people can we take care of each other.”

“Are you going to the market?” Wang Daan was stunned for a moment, and then he responded, “Yes, today is the day to go to the market.”

The market opens every five days, and today is exactly the fifth day since the last time we went to the market.

But he couldn't turn his head around for a while, thinking that this place was still the same as in his previous life, and he could go on a long trip casually.

The old man was also surprised when he saw Lu Qing and wanted to take him into the house to drink water.

Sure enough, Wang Daan grinned when he heard this.

Children are strictly prohibited from running outside.

At the entrance of the village, Wang Daan pointed to a big tree at the entrance of the village.

Let Lu Qing explain clearly the rules for leaving the village and tie the red rope.

Wang Daan then took Lu Qing in the direction of Daji.
