Chapter 1009

"I don't think so. When you came in, you saw that there are two rivers on both sides of our village. Our village is actually wrapped up by the whole river."

"At that time, when we moved here, we wanted to build a place isolated from the rest of the world, free from the harassment of outsiders, and make our village rich." Zhang Yan's father drank a glass of wine and continued.

"So the water for our farming comes from the river in this circle, but there are no boats in this river. After all, we have a road to go out, so we can't use boats at all."

"Wait a minute, uncle." Chu Yun suddenly felt as if he had heard something, "uncle, you just said that this village is wrapped by the whole river?"

"Yes, our village, including our fields, is built in the center of the river." Zhang Yan's father put down his glass and said triumphantly, "in those days, our ancestors found a lot of places before they finally found this place."

"Where did the ancestors find it?" Chu Yun's several people are even more puzzled. According to this, Yanjia village should have existed here a long time ago. Why is the address of Yanjia village not here?

"Of course, my daughter-in-law knows best." Zhang Yan's father patted the table happily, pointed to Zhang Yan's mother and said, "it should be said that her ancestors came here a long time ago."

Zhang Yan's mother laughed, swallowed the food in her mouth, put down the bowl and chopsticks, and said, "I also heard my grandparents talk about this. The Yanjia village was dozens of miles away from where we live now."

"About a hundred years ago, there was no mobile phone at all. It was only by roaring. Let alone cars, there were no bicycles. It took several days to walk dozens of miles."

"Later, the geographical environment of our original place was very bad. It was either a big flood, a drought or an insect disaster. Anyway, it was worse every year."

"I heard from my grandparents that a physiognomy came and told the patriarch that our village had to be moved. If we didn't move for a few years, the village would be gone."

"To tell you the truth, people at that time were very feudal. It was not easy for them to get their ideas through. The most stubborn one was the patriarch. He said that he had lived in this place for generations. To give up here was to kill them."

"However, later that Xiangshi stayed here for more than a year, and finally got through the patriarch's ideological work, so he took all the people to move south."

"In the past, people could walk ten miles a day at most. They didn't have much money. They just came here with their bags and their children, and they followed the patriarch and the prime minister all the way."

"It took the Xiangshi and the strong men in the village 30 years to build this dry river. Slowly, the place began to improve."

"In order to let everyone have land and rice to eat, the prime minister and the patriarch called together the strong men in the village to build a circle of rivers and encircle our whole village."

Zhang Yan's mother laughed. "I heard that the old man said that after he helped us make the river, he also taught us to open a hole in the mountain. A reservoir has been built in the mountain stream. "

"The purpose is to store water in the river when it rains heavily. If it is really dry, it will draw water from the mountains. This will solve the problem of water use in the fields and in our village. "

"In this way, our village has been here for nearly a hundred years. All the surrounding mountains and forests have not been destroyed by us, and the most primitive form of the past is still preserved."

"Because we didn't know that these mountains could bring us benefits, only because the prime minister mentioned that mountains and rivers could protect our Yanjia village. So we're not going to destroy it. "

"Later, after the scholar came here, about seventeen or eighteen years ago, he began to help us develop the tourism industry. In addition to the river, there are two hills and a waterfall behind our village."

"It's all because the people in our village keep a lot of natural scenery here, otherwise the scholars will not be able to help us develop tourism, so we attract a lot of tourists here every year."

Zhang Yan's mother's face is full of pride, because this place brings them not only a good home, but also such a good geographical environment, creating such a beautiful place.

In today's Shida, where the tourism industry is developed, it has become one of the most characteristic scenic spots around the town. "So that's why we have changed this place into Yanjiagou natural scenic spot."

"The former Yanjia village is no longer there, but the plaque at the gate of our village still says Yanjia village, and here has become the most characteristic Yanjiagou natural scenic spot."

"Is it possible for this tourist area to go elsewhere, or is there any abyss?" Chu Yun didn't know there was a mountain here before. What if Zhou Zhuo fell down the mountain.

Zhang Yan's father thought for a moment, and then said, "it's impossible, little brother. At that time, all the people in the village went there to look for it. Let alone the human shadow, even the shadow of the animal can't be seen.""The temperature of the mountain here is much lower than that here. It snows on the mountain in winter. Not to mention tourists, our villagers will not go up the mountain."

"On the day of Zhou Zhuo's accident, our people went up to the mountain and didn't find any footprints. That is to say, if no one went up the mountain, Zhou Zhuo would not be on the mountain. Because there was no snow at all that night. "

Zhang Yan's father is right. When Zhou Zhuo disappeared that night, there was no snow in the sky, and there was no footprints of Zhou Zhuo in the snow on the mountain. That is to say, Zhou Zhuo didn't go up the mountain at all.

"It seems that the scholar you are talking about really has a way. Make this place famous far and near. "

"Yes. The scholar is a great benefactor in our village. If there were no scholar, there would be no prosperity in Yanjia village. Now every family in Yanjia village has built high buildings and driven cars. "

"That's right. I still remember that when the scholar came, we lived in small tile roofed houses. Now they are all small western style houses on the third floor."

"Yes, more than ten years ago, swallows were still children at that time." Zhang Yan's father said happily again.

"At that time, the scholar joked with me that his son was about the same age as the swallow. He also said that when the two children grew up and brought them here, maybe we could form a family."
