Chapter 784

Little dongniang turned around and looked at the far away piece of red, and there was the mountain that had hindered them for thousands of years.

"Haven't you noticed that the food has become more and more tasteless recently?"

Shen Qingci sipped her red lips. Well, she tasted it, but she didn't think about it too much. She thought it was xiaodongniang who forgot to put salt. But every meal is like this. It's a little weird.

"No, because we have no salt."

Little Dong Niang sat down and her eyes became red again.

"Everything is good here, but there is only one thing. We don't have salt. Later, we found a salt field at the other end of the mountain. There is enough salt for us to eat for generations, and the salt can be regenerated."

"Isn't that good?" Shen Qingci looked back and looked at the place. In fact, there was nothing to see. Only a mountain shadow could be seen among the peach blossoms.

The mountain not only protected them, but also brought them salt.

"Salt is not so easy to take."

Little dongniang wiped her tears again. "If we want to get salt, we must climb the mountain. This may be the punishment given to us by heaven. Anyone who takes salt will die."

"And the salt they brought back can let us eat for a year, but every year, young men will go up the mountain to get salt, and they will have their own lives to exchange for the salt we live on."

"The salt they exchanged for their lives saved the whole village. It was because of their sacrifice that generations of Dongling people were born."

Shen Qing's speech is that he feels some discomfort in his stomach.

If so, she would rather not eat such salt.

The salt was bought with human life, which was equal to the salt and rice she had eaten. In fact, what she ate was human flesh and blood.

Xiao dongniang said a lot. Maybe all she can say is Shen Qingci, an outsider. Generations in the village have passed like this. They are used to it. Every year, they send in two young men.

Xu is their father and brother, Xu is their son and grandson, so they do not say, they have no way to say, every household is the same, everyone is the same.

In the past, they would send one person to fetch salt, but they found that there were many people who did not come back. At last, two people were sent to the village every time, one dead and one injured. In the end, they could bring back enough salt for the whole village for one year.

however, what kind of salt to eat? It is clear that what they eat is human blood and human flesh.

Shen Qing couldn't help covering his mouth, but also felt as if something in his stomach turned up.

She has never met with such a thing. Salt is very easy to get outside, and it is as cheap as cabbage. There are several large salt fields in the territory of Dazhou, even one in Qiyuan's hands. Now it is being mined again, which is enough for tens of thousands of people in Dazhou. Moreover, salt fields are inexhaustible.

She had eaten a lot of salt in her two life. She even forgot about salt sometimes, but she never thought that someone would lose her life because of these little salt.

Shen Qingci helped Xiaodong comb his hair. The hair of the boy and the girl was the same. However, after she learned how to comb her hair for her sister, she was more dexterous. She did not have the clumsy hands and feet as Zeng Jin did. She had to pull several hair.

And think of her sister, she can't help but think of the outside of that colorful world, no matter how bad the outside, or her home, home is always home.
