It rained all night, but it was a drizzling rain, and before dawn, there was a small shower. Luckily, there was no thunder.

The expedition continued along the river, and in the evening, they still could not get out of this oasis, but they finally saw a new hope—looking down from the hillside, there was a small village of forty or fifty families downstream.

"Oh my God!"

"Let's go!"

The expedition team suddenly became excited. "Rush Rush!"

Lin Feng was very surprised and stopped everyone, "You wait a minute." ”

The youngest little girl looked at Lin Feng puzzled, Lin Feng sighed leisurely, He Ping pulled the little girl back, "He Xian, can you stabilize the point?!"

He Xian was trained by his uncle, and his face was a little unbearable, and he couldn't help pouting aggrievedly. He Ping sighed in his heart, but his mouth was still cold and hard: "Take a good look, where does the architectural style of this village look like a tribe in the primeval forest?

It doesn't match at all.

The place where the village is located is still some distance away from the expedition team, but the reason why it can be seen is because of the difference in topography, going forward, the ground suddenly recess into a piece, and then continuing downward, looking around, there should be a basin in front of it, and the village is located in the basin.

By taking advantage of the height of the terrain, you can see the situation in the basin in front of you. The village built houses at random, most of them square, one next to the other, some with two floors, and most of them low. There are basins in Sichuan and Xinjiang in China, but it has nothing to do with the Bashu style and Xinjiang style, and the architecture here has a style similar to that of the buildings in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River, with balustrade and ground style as the mainstay, and there may also be a small number of semi-crypt types.

After the excitement passes, the brain returns to thinking and quickly realizes what the problem is.

If there is an obvious primitive tribal style, then Lin Feng and the others will not stand still, but the tribe in front of them obviously has a very Chinese architectural taste, so that the expedition team that has been puzzled and panicked since entering the "oasis" is completely stunned.

Just as the expedition team hesitated to go down, doubting the authenticity of everything in front of them, a child in the village came out of the house, looked up, saw the people on the hillside, and hurriedly ran into the house.

And in the second-floor building, the window on the second floor was open, and a figure appeared in the window, looking at the expedition.

Lin Feng picked up the telescope in his hand, adjusted it slightly, and aimed it at the window on the second floor.

It was an old man with gray hair, his eyes were sharp, when Lin Feng looked at him directly, the old man was also looking at him, and through the telescope, the two looked at each other.

Lin Feng saw the old man's lips close one by one, and Lin Feng held his breath: "...... Come on, come, friends, friends, ......"

"What?" Feng Qianshan has always been a good friend and good assistant by Lin Feng's side, but Feng Qianshan didn't say much, standing beside Lin Feng at this time, he was naturally very concerned about the movement of that window, seeing Lin Feng spit out such a few words without a head or a tail, Feng Qianshan was inexplicable, and took out his telescope to look at it, at this moment, the child who had just run in ran out again, carrying a pair of chopsticks and a big iron bowl, knocked it hard, and ran towards the entrance of the village, shouting loudly: "Someone is coming! There are outsiders!"

The people in the house walked out one after another, and soon a group of people gathered at the entrance of the village.

They looked up at Lin Feng and the others, and Lin Feng and the others looked down at them, but a chill rose in Lin Feng's heart.

"Captain...... We?"

"Oh my God......"

"They speak Chinese!"

"We're really not dreaming, aren't we in the Sahara?"

Lin Feng didn't hesitate, he didn't care about the discussion of the team members, and gave an order: "Go! Go down!" The other party had already sent out an invitation, and no matter what, the expedition team had no other choice but to go down.

Walking to the entrance of the village, you can see the entrance of the village, there is a low stone monument, less than knee high, which is randomly erected at the entrance of the village, and there is a sign of a double fish ring on it. Despise, except for Lin Feng who had seen this thing in his wife Wang Xiuzhu's hometown, everyone had never seen the Pisces Ring sign.

Thinking of his wife Wang Xiuzhu, Lin Feng's gaze on the stone tablet deepened.

Seeing Lin Feng's gaze fall on the Pisces ring, the child at first, only to find that it was not actually a child, but a dwarf who had not grown taller.

The man's heart moved, and he took the initiative to say to Lin Feng: "This mark, called the Pisces Ring, is the mark of our village. We all have it in each of us. ”

"Your village...... The imprint?"

"Yes. Our village is called 'Scale Village', the scales of fish scales. ”

Lin Feng didn't speak again, the man looked back at the two-story building, turned his head and said, "Let's go." The Great Elder will wait for you again. ”

Lin Feng was about to step forward when he heard the words: "Wait for 'us', or wait for 'me'?"

That person was not vain, he was frank and open, as if he didn't see the rest of the expedition team also looking at him, and said unswervingly to Lin Feng: "Wait for you." ”

Lin Feng had no choice but to lead everyone in the expedition team directly through the village and arrive at the innermost two-story building.

"What does that mean?"

At this time, a middle-aged man stood in front of the two-story building, and he made a gesture to stop him, and Lin Feng couldn't help but ask in a deep voice.

The little recorder also heard the words of the short man at the entrance of the village just now, and was about to open his mouth to persuade Lin Feng, but a voice suddenly came from upstairs: "It's okay, executor." Let them all come up. ”

"Great Elder?!" The middle-aged man known as the "Executor" was shocked. The Great Elder's voice came down again: "These people are different. Because it's not the same either. ”

"Yes. I know. The executor seemed to have thought of something and respectfully agreed. Turning sideways to make way out of the way, he said to everyone in the expedition: "Please!"

After going up, the space on the second floor was not large, the Great Elder was sitting, and there was no one else around. Lin Feng, Feng Qianshan, He Weidi, and He Ping, Yuan Zhong, and Lin Hailian all had seats, just like they were just right, one was not many, and one was not many. Cheng Pengju stood on the side with Yuan Zhanpeng and He Xian, and the little recorder with Luo Kasha and the other four students could only stand outside the door. After a while, the executor came up with a few servants with tea, served the tea, and the servants left, and the executor stood silently beside the Great Elder.

The Great Elder had white hair, but his spirit was very good, and his skin was also very good, smooth and fair, like an immortal with fairy wind bones. The executor, with black hair and blazing eyes, stood beside the Great Elder like a reliable mountain.

"I've been waiting for you guys for a while. The Great Elder said slowly, "I don't know if you believe in fate or not?"

Lin Feng and the others looked at each other, how could this great elder be like a magic stick when he opened his mouth?

"Actually, whether you believe it or not, fate is such a thing, one day you will believe it, everyone has everyone's life. The Great Elder glanced at Lin Feng meaningfully, and Lin Feng raised his eyebrows, "Then according to the Great Elder, what is my life?"

The Great Elder showed a shallow smile, "Your Lin Feng's fate is to take my place and become the Great Elder of this village." ”

For a while, everyone was surprised and speechless, and the surprised thing was that several members of the expedition team did not introduce themselves or speak after they came up, the captain of the expedition team did not speak, the members did not speak, and the students naturally did not speak, just silently waiting for this imposing elder to speak first. However, the Great Elder called out Lin Feng's name without mistake. Speechlessly, the Great Elder's speech was still Shinto.

If it were normal times, Lin Feng would definitely laugh and scold: "This is an era of science, what kind of feudal superstition, think about socialism and Marx!" Although those engaged in cultural relics work do not advocate science so much, the banner of science is always on their shoulders.

Lin Feng didn't know what to say for a while, but he didn't speak, and the rest of the expedition team couldn't speak, but the Great Elder waited quietly for Lin Feng to speak, as if waiting for him to respond, except for the two sentences that entered the door, the executor was like a mute, less than Sha Wujing's lines.

The corners of Lin Feng's mouth twitched, and he spit out two words dryly: "What?"

"Great Elder, there's no problem calling you that, right?" Feng Qianshan was a little breathless, "We are new here, we don't know anything, what exactly are you talking about? Feng Qianshan didn't know why he thought of the daughter country in "Journey to the West", and was worried that this great elder who looked like a fairy wind and bones actually had something to say that it was good to say that it was ugly or sick or crazy in the boudoir, and then just on the hillside paper, looking through the telescope, this old man fell in love with Lin Feng. Feng Qianshan thought about it and glanced at Lin Feng, after all, Lin Feng didn't look bad, a flower in the Forbidden City.

Lin Feng looked at his friend, and inexplicably felt that he might be thinking about something unreliable, Feng Qianshan looked reliable, in fact, he was rich in imagination, and sometimes he was very naïve, just look at his son Feng Jianfei, who was eighteen years old like his son Lin Hainan, and was still bouncing all day long, very lively and cute, like a child. For this reason, his wife Wang Xiuzhu complained to Lin Feng several times that his son Lin Hainan was too boring.

Thoughts drifted out and quickly drifted back, the Great Elder looked at Lin Feng, "I don't think Mr. Lin doesn't know anything, at least you know the sign of our village." ”

The Great Elder always had something to say, Lin Feng's heart tightened, and he said conservatively: "I've just seen that sign, and I really don't know anything." I didn't intend to be the Great Elder of this village, our expedition got lost, and happened to pass by here, and asked the Great Elder to tell us where this is, how to leave, and we will go back. ”

"It's not an easy place to leave. The Great Elder smiled, but the smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes: "This is China, the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, and I don't know the specific time." ”

I was too tired yesterday, so I didn't have time to update, and today I made up for the two more.
