"That's true. The patriarch-like man struck the ground with a bone staff, "Aren't you?"
"Of course not. Xiao Luo spoke, "Your ancestors fled here, two thousand years have passed, the pre-Qin Dynasty has perished, how can I hunt you down, now it is the Great Hua Kingdom, the Great Hua Dynasty in the eighth year of Tianwu, the world is divided into seven countries, you can rest assured." ”
"Is that really the case?" said the old patriarch, skeptical.
In the past so many years of the pre-Qin period, the only thing that has not changed is that the pre-Qin characters have been handed down, at least the accents of these savages can be understood.
"If we were bad people, would we bury a person's body here?" Mu Xiaoluo continued.
The old patriarch nodded again and again, "Once when you buried the bones, our guards Ah Da and Ah Er both told me that this is a woman from our clan, Xue Xiaoxiao, I don't know when she escaped, and now she has come back as a corpse." ”
"Really?" Mu Xiaoluo's eyes became deep, like a deep hole, she had heard that there was another aunt living in the southern courtyard, and then she died, could it be this woman?
But how did this woman from the Xue Man clan have anything to do with Xiang's father, could it be that Xiang's father also discovered this place?
Impossible, Xiangguo's father should have never been to this place, if he passed by, he found that these Xue Man clansmen, who had survived for more than 2,000 years, according to Mu Zhanpeng's character, did not lead troops to exterminate them all, which was obviously unscientific, and did not conform to Xiang's father's methods.
That corpse is a woman, Xue Xiaoxiao? was Xiangguo's aunt, if it was really the woman that Xiangguo's father loved, how could he be willing to let Xue Xiaoxiao die in the corpse room?
"Dare to ask the old patriarch, how do you know that the owner of this nameless corpse is your Xue Barbarian clan?"
Mu Xiaoluo made it clear that she didn't believe it, how could she judge that she was a member of the Xue Man clan based on an ordinary corpse?
When asked about this, His Royal Highness Ye Xu Hua raised his sword eyebrows, and he also wanted to know how they judged it.
Immediately, the old patriarch coughed a few times, and said earnestly, "Since you buried the small bones here that day, after our Ah Da and Ah Er came back to tell us, we felt very strange, so I asked them to dig out the bones again, check the bones, I didn't expect that the right toes of this corpse bones are a total of two fingers, this is the unique credential of our Xue Man clan, our clan, no one has such characteristics, you see, my feet." ”
The old patriarch took off his straw sandals in response, Mu Xiaoluo and Ye Xuhua looked at it, and sure enough, in addition to the bare toes with a stench, the tail toe of the toe of the right foot suddenly grew a small toe, not only the old patriarch, but also the others, because they did not shy away from taking off the straw sandals, and asked Xiaoluo and the others to see that it was a real one!
"Sure enough!" Mu Xiaoluo nodded subconsciously, and glanced at His Royal Highness Ye Xu Hua II, which seemed to mean that what the patriarch said was true.
Unexpectedly, Ye Xuhua didn't quickly digest the hidden meaning of Xiao Luo's eyes, but the old patriarch saw through it, "Hmph! This is true and not false, don't you believe me?"
It seemed that the old patriarch was very angry, but Mu Xiaoluo said with a smile, "Old patriarch, there is no other meaning, we believe it, and one more thing, we want to know, how did your clansman Xue Xiaoxiao run out, and how long has it been?"
"According to this calculation, it is almost seven or eight star yuan!" the old patriarch raised his eyes and said to himself.
One of them was very large, and the person who called himself Ah Da said, "Old patriarch, to be precise, it should be seven and a half star yuan, and my cub will be seven and a half star yuan in two days." ”
Xingyuan, what Xingyuan? So weird?
"May I ask this Xingyuan reconciliation?" Mu Xiaoluo's eyes were full of light, this mysterious clan, since it has been isolated from the world for more than two thousand years, it already has its own concept of time, it must be like this.
Without waiting for the patriarch to answer, Mu Xiaoluo said again, "The Xingyuan you are talking about does it mean a cold summer, a spring and autumn, and a year." ”
"It stands to reason that we of the Xue Man clan fled from the pre-Qin riots and came to this situation, we use the stars of the sky to record the time, we have no time here, only the stars, and the flickering light and darkness of the stars in the sky are very regular......"
The old patriarch said a lot, he said that the ancestors of the Xue family clan brought them to such a mountain and wilderness, self-sufficient, and did not rely on the outside world at all, they have been here for two thousand star yuan, it has been two thousand years, and Xue Xiaoxiao left here seven years and half a year ago.
When speaking, the simple Xue Man clan was not as barbaric as Xiao Luo had met before, to put it bluntly, it was just a means of self-protection for them, it can be said that they were very simple and kind, if you don't have any malice towards them, then they don't have any ill will towards you.
Mu Xiaoluo thought that she still wanted to know more about that poor Xue Xiaoxiao, so she looked at His Royal Highness Ye Xu Hua with a confused face, and then looked at the old lady, at this time, a few naked children ran out of the Xue Man clan, bouncing around, as if they were very happy, and Xiaoluo's mood was completely relaxed, "By the way, since Xue Xiaoxiao is from your clan, how could she think about running out, and how did she run out, hasn't she come back?"
"That's a long story. "Everyone in the Xue Man clan stood up with a sister-in-law, with fair skin, and her body was still the silk brocade, which can be called rich and magnificent, and her lower body was wrapped in a piece of animal skin, which should be the fur of animals such as yellow leopards.
The sister-in-law said, "Seven and a half years ago, Xue Xiaoxiao ran out secretly, she said that she was too bored to live here since she was a child, one day she found that someone from the outside world had specially made a hole to this realm, Xue Xiaoxiao thief ran out, I remember that at that time, the old patriarch was very angry." ”
"But no, that day, we searched the entire valley and the sea but couldn't find Xue Xiaoxiao. Seeing that Xiao Luo and the others did not understand the environmental characteristics of this place, the old patriarch explained, "For two thousand stars, we have hunted and caught beasts in the valley, taken their skins, eaten their muscles, and drank their bones and blood, and our strong young people will go down to the sea at the bottom of the valley to catch fish, and in the early morning and evening, the sea and the valley are empty like a white mist like gods, which is magnificent. ”
It seems that this valley and the sea are their own set of ecological world, forming their own climate, so that the valley is like spring in all seasons, and there can be no fireflies in the cold winter in the outside world, but in this valley, there is still grass and warblers flying, and the scenery is extremely beautiful, Mu Xiaoluo thought, I must find a chance to stay here overnight, and wait until the next morning, to see the boundless sea of clouds, but it is really excellent.
"No, didn't you find the other two people just now?" When Ye Xuhua asked this sentence, he felt that his scalp was numb, Xiangguo Mu Zhanpeng and the eldest emperor brother Yue Tianyan must have been talking at the entrance of the cave just now, and the candle flame at the entrance of the cave still had lingering smoke, what the hell is going on.
After brushing away the dust on his body, the old patriarch sat down with a smooth rock, took out a dry cigarette from his arms, and said with a grin, "These things, Ah Da and Ah Er have reported these things to the old man, we found them, but they didn't find us. ”
As soon as the words fell, the old patriarch's face was full of smugness, "Even if they find us, as long as they pull the mountain and sea vines, it is enough to isolate the outside world!"
The old patriarch immediately stood up and guided a certain place, Mu Xiaoluo followed the direction of his old man's guidance, and sure enough, on the top of the mountain, a dense mountain vine with a thickness of more than 30 feet and a length of 100 zhang was hanged.
"Old patriarch, what I don't understand is, why do you choose to believe us, aren't you afraid of leaking the secret and bringing disaster to you?" Mu Xiaoluo also asked tentatively.
The old patriarch stroked the goat's whiskers, his eyes were shining, "Since you can bury Xue Xiaoxiao's bones for no reason, it means that you are a good person, if that day, you casually throw that corpse on the ground and leave like this, I think we will dedicate ourselves, it is impossible for your generation Haoche to find us, and the mountain and sea vine is a secret that everyone in our Xue Man clan does not know to outsiders, except for the Xue Man clan, people from the outside world cannot know, of course, you are a friend of our Xue Man clan, and we all regard you as a good person." ”
His words are very touching, Xiao Luo also knows that this is cause and effect, he has planted the fruit of kindness and reaped the fruit of kindness, it seems that this simple Xue Man clan who has been forgotten in the depths of history by the world is rooted in the depths of their bone marrow, which is kindness and innocence.
"By the way, you haven't told me yet, Xue Xiaoxiao escaped, have you ever come back?" Mu Xiaoluo still gathered the core of the problem at this level, which is very critical, because Xiaoluo knows that these Xue Man clansmen, each of them is actually dressed in silk brocade, and the lower body is not grass or animal skin, and the clothes are very strange, it must have something to do with Xue Xiaoxiao.
These, of course, are Mu Xiaoluo's ideas.
The old patriarch responded with great emotion, "Yes, Xue Xiaoxiao went out for the first time for the first time with half a Xingyuan, and she will come back for every half Xingyuan after that, and she also brought precious silkworms, the types of silkworms that we have not had for a long time here, so each of us can wear silk and satin from the outside world." ”
That's really the case. It seems that there is no problem with his guesses and assumptions, Xiao Luo is very satisfied, but strange, "Then how did your lower body look like this?"
"You don't know this little girl, the ground that grows the most in our valley and around the sea is gutter grass, and when gutter grass touches silk, it will melt. After the old patriarch finished speaking, he was afraid that Mu Xiaoluo and the others would not believe it, and the silk scarf that took off his head was still on the ground, and it was in tatters for a while.
Mu Xiaoluo and Ye Xu Hua looked at each other in surprise, it turned out that this was the case, it seemed that in their place, they couldn't wear silk and satin on their lower bodies, Xiao Luo was still rejoicing, fortunately, the silk skirt under her was not dissolved by the gutter grass.
"Ahh A sister-in-law no longer knows when a piece of animal skin appeared in her hands to wrap Xiaoluo's lower body.
Ye Xu Hua's noble skirt was melted away, he covered Bai Huahua's obscene pants with both hands, and his face flushed, "How can this be, how can I be?"
Waiting for the old patriarch to cover the crotch of the second highness, he smiled, "Once you stood outside the Chu Wai of the Tiangou Grass and didn't touch the Tiangou Grass, you see, now you have invaded the Chu Wai of the Tiangou Grass." ”
Following the instructions of the old patriarch, Mu Xiaoluo really saw the blue and faint turf, and his face was still glowing.
"This kind of gutter grass is not only found in the valley, but also under the sea, and although the silk and satin are beautiful, they can only be worn on the body, because when we are working, we inevitably have to squat, in order not to be melted and broken, we only have this dress. ”
The old patriarch's eyes were full of innocent looks, "Since the two of you are here, then you are the guests of our Xue Barbarian Clan, how about going to the valley with us......?
Mu Xiaoluo is looking forward to the appearance of them pulling down the mountains and sea vines, the old patriarch has already understood what Xiao Luo thinks, and immediately called the two young adults, Ah Da and Ah Er pulled a little, and suddenly there was a sharp and irresistible stone wall in front of them, the key is that the stone wall was instantly covered with tens of thousands of vines, as if they had fallen from the sky, so covered, a piece of green, everyone just saw the vigorous trees of the mountain from the surface, it turned out that the secret passage was completely covered, as long as the mountain and sea vines were opened, the secret passage was very conspicuous, it was a road that only allowed one person to pass, that was a plot of land connected by stone slabsThere is also a large gap between the two stone slabs.
After the introduction of the old patriarch, he said that there was an endless abyss-like sea below, and there were no bones left when he fell!
The old patriarch, as well as the sister-in-law, Ah Da and Ah Er, and people in similar costumes hugged with torches, and the torches illuminated the road ahead, if it weren't for the old patriarch to lead the way, I was afraid that Xiao Luo and Ye Xu Hua might step into the air at any time and fall into the deep sea, but fortunately, the stone slab was extremely strong, and the old patriarch said that this setting was to avoid the invasion of outside murderers, and a quarter of an hour passed.
Suddenly, at the end of the stone slab, everything suddenly became clear, several open houses, most of them were bamboo pavilion wooden houses, several children danced around the bonfire with bare buttocks and sang unknown nursery rhymes, several young men and women danced with their waists clasped around their waists, and some of their faces were also painted with some kind of paint, which looked strange and shocking, and Xiaoluo was speechless, but soon, Xiaoluo also got used to it.
