Chapter 243 Yaling Village
This Yaling Village is called a village to put it nicely, but in fact, it is estimated that there are only a few households now!
Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, some families from the surrounding villages fled to this dangerous place and lived in seclusion in order to escape the war.
As time went on, the number of refugees increased and gradually formed a small gathering area.
The terrain here is steep and very remote. Most people can't find it at all. These people hide here and are self-sufficient. It can be said that they have a safe place to live in the war-torn era!
After the war ended and the People's Republic of China was founded, when the household registration was counted, it was found that this nameless gathering area did not belong to any of the surrounding villages, so it simply established its own village.
Because there are cliffs everywhere, it is simply called Yaling Village.
When the village was first established, there were about thirty or forty households and a population of about one hundred.
Later, some people saw that the war outside had stopped, a new country had been established, and society had become stable again, so they gradually moved away from this remote place and went to other places.
After all, in this remote place, the living standards have always been very primitive and backward!
In fact, for the people here, this is how they have lived for thousands of years.
When war breaks out and society is unstable, they hide in the mountains; when a new ruling order is established, society stabilizes, and peace arrives, they come out of the mountains and continue their lives.
There are still several households in Shangouzi Village, which used to be from Yaling Village!
They fled here from Shangouzi Village during the war, and returned to Shangouzi Village after the war.
It’s just that they went back very early. If you count the time, it has been almost forty or fifty years since they left Yaling Village.
For thousands of years, such scenes have been constantly played out on this land.
Every time there is a war, the first to suffer are the people at the bottom of society!
……
When Gu Chang was young, he learned about Yaling Village from his father. He also ate the stone fungus that the people of Yaling Village gave to his father!
The wonderful taste, once tasted, will never be forgotten!
This time when he came to Zhumao Village, Gu Chang saw that it was not far from Yaling Village, and he had the time, so he wanted to come and take a look.
If there is a harvest and the stone ear can be developed, it will be a huge extra income!
This thing is so expensive!
Moreover, Gu Chang was really greedy!
This foodie has missed the taste of stone ear for many years!
……
We drove forward and arrived at a valley. There was a narrow cliff with a cave in the middle that was only wide enough for one person to pass through.
Go to the other side of the cave and you will find Yaling Village!
It was impossible to drive further ahead, so the three of them got out of the car and planned to walk over to take a look.
To be honest, Gu Chang had never been to Yaling Village. He had only heard of it from his father.
He is not sure now whether there are still villagers in Yaling Village or whether they have all moved to other places.
The three of them moved forward carefully, passing through a gap in the cliff that was only wide enough for one person.
After walking about eight or nine meters along the crevice of the cliff, the three of them suddenly felt that the view in front of them was opened.
What comes into view is a huge low-lying basin surrounded by cliffs. If you look down from the air, it looks like a huge crater, sunken!
To the east, a waterfall cascades down from the cliff like a silver thread, magnificent and beautiful!
Below the waterfall, there is a deep pool with a winding stream flowing in the pool.
There are some stone houses in the villages on both sides of the stream.
Although these houses looked clean and tidy, Gu Chang and the other two couldn't help but feel a little shocked.
It is difficult to find such a primitive way of building a house in this era.
The three of them seemed to have walked into history and came to the village of ancient people.
By the creek in front of the house, a woman was washing clothes, and next to her was a fat boy, about four or five years old, playing in the water.
Gu Chang and the other two looked at the scene in front of them. This place really looked like a paradise!
A group of villagers who don’t know what year it is now, hide in the depths of this remote mountain, and live and work in peace and contentment!
For a moment, Gu Chang felt a little envious of these people’s lives!
They must not be under any pressure!
No need to go to school or work; no mortgage or car loan.
Gu Chang felt a little regretful. He didn't know whether his trip here was a good thing or a bad thing for the villagers of Yaling Village!
