Chapter 173 Gu Yannian Sings
Angkui Country——
Angkui, this is a country forgotten by time. It seems to have stayed in a certain era in the past, with almost no development and progress.
This place is poor and backward, people live in hardship and the national economy is stagnant.
The population of Angkui country is only about 700,000, and it is sparsely populated.
The country's area is small, even smaller than the smallest province in China.
This land seems to be isolated from the world and forgotten in a corner.
The people here seem to still be living in the feudal era; their ideas and behaviors are incompatible with modern society.
They wore ancient costumes and followed traditional etiquette norms.
The city's architectural style also retains traces of ancient times, and the streets are narrow and crowded.
However, what is most surprising is that the Angkui Kingdom still adhered to the monarchical autocratic system.
The king has absolute power and rules the entire country.
This kind of political system is extremely rare in today's world, but it still exists here.
The country's military equipment also lags behind the times.
The weapons held by the soldiers are mostly outdated rifles, which have long failed to keep up with the needs of modern warfare.
What's worse is that most guns are still manufactured domestically, with varying quality and no guarantee of combat effectiveness.
The Angkui Kingdom was like an isolated island, having lost contact with the outside world.
The people here live a simple and hard life and are unaware of changes in the outside world.
Their culture, values and social systems seem to be frozen in the past, unable to adapt to the rapid development of modern society.
In a wild mountain village——
It is not uncommon for Pei Shan to establish his own base of power in this place.
After all, many countries would choose to set up bases in such places.
This is a back road, a hidden back road.
When Pei Shan came here, the land had already been deserted and turned into ruins.
The original residents had to migrate elsewhere because they suffered from long-term geological drought.
There are only dozens of dilapidated thatched houses left in the village. Due to years of disrepair and exposure to wind and rain, these houses have long been dilapidated and uninhabitable.
However, with the efforts of Pei Shan's men, they renovated and repaired these abandoned thatched houses, giving them new life and turning them into habitable places.
Gu Yannian was locked in a cage, and the scorching sun made him sweat all over.
He felt like an animal in a cage, with no dignity at all.
He wanted to resist, but he backed off when he thought that the other party had a gun.
What's more, he was still imprisoned.
At this time, Wu Fuhai and Wu Fuhe had just cooked a table full of dishes. They sat in the house, enjoying the happiness brought by the food.
The cage holding Gu Yannian was placed right in the middle of the yard, allowing him to see the scene clearly.
Gu Yannian's eyes were fixed on the table.
There were all kinds of delicious dishes there: fragrant fried meat, lush green vegetables, aromatic roast chicken and crystal clear white rice.
What made him salivate even more was that there were two bottles of ice-cold beer on the table.
Gu Yannian opened his eyes wide and his mouth moved unconsciously, as if he was tasting the delicious dishes on the table.
His throat rolled and he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, his heart filled with desire.
But he knew that these delicacies did not belong to him, they were just tools to torture him.
At this time, Wu Fuhe was gnawing on a chicken leg with relish.
When he raised his head, he glanced at Gu Yannian who was standing next to him.
When he saw the other person's greedy eyes, he couldn't help laughing out loud.
Then he pointed at Gu Yannian and said to his brother Wu Fuhai who was sitting next to him: "Brother, look at him, does he look like a dog?"
After saying this, he burst into laughter.
After hearing what his brother said, Wu Fuhai also raised his head and looked at Gu Yannian in the cage.
He looked around first, then took a big gulp of beer, took a long breath, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
Then, he picked up some more dishes, chewed the food, and said calmly: "Let's eat."
After saying that, he began to concentrate on enjoying the food.
Wu Fuhe grinned as he gnawed off the last piece of meat from the chicken leg, eating it neatly and efficiently.
Only a bare, shiny chicken bone was left, as if it had just undergone a perfect baptism.
Then, he threw the chicken bone without hesitation, and it flew straight to the front of the cage.
Gu Yannian was originally full of joy, thinking that something delicious was flying over.
But when he looked closely and found that it was just a bone that had been gnawed clean, anger suddenly surged in his heart.
He cursed inwardly: "These damn guys actually teased me like a dog!"
"At least throw something with meat over here."
I secretly swore in my heart, "If I have a chance to escape from this cage, I will make you pay the price."
"When the time comes, I'll find a cage to lock you two up, and I won't even leave you a bone."
Seeing Gu Yannian's eager look, Wu Fuhe said cheerfully: "Brother, he just wanted to pick up that bone."
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Liu Zhanghua walked into the yard and saw Gu Yannian staring at a bone in a daze.
He walked over and kicked the cage. As the cage shook, Gu Yannian inside was also startled.
"Which bastard kicked..."
Before he could finish his words, Gu Yannian saw Liu Zhanghua's face and was so scared that he immediately shut up.
Liu Zhanghua took off the AK on his shoulder and said to Gu Yannian, "You bastard, what did you just say?"
"Do you have the guts to try to scream again?"
Looking at this AK, Gu Yannian was almost scared to death.
He quickly waved his hands and said, "Brother Hua, I didn't say anything, I didn't say anything."
"Brother Hua, please forgive me"
At this time, the Wu Fuhai brothers noticed the situation in the yard and walked to the door with their bowls in their hands to see what was happening.
Liu Zhanghua said: "Okay, I'll give you a chance."
"Sing a happy song for me."
"Maybe I won't bother with you if I'm happy."
Gu Yannian was now being pointed at by a gun, and his mind was almost blank. He couldn't think of a festive song.
Liu Zhanghua became impatient and kicked the cage again.
"Will you sing?"
Gu Yannian said in surprise: "Brother Hua, I will sing"
"I'm sure you'll sing it. Please put your gun away and don't fire it."
"Then sing quickly," Liu Zhanghua urged.
Gu Yannian coughed twice.
"I wish you a long life and good health, and may you have this day every year."
