Boss Du concluded: "In short, there is less water in the mountains, not as much as you said. ”

"There isn't much water, why is the grass so luxuriant?" Bao Longtu was not convinced, and argued: "If there is no water, it is estimated that all the mountains here are barren, how can it be full of life?" ”

"Besides, just because there's no water on the surface doesn't mean there's no water underground."

Bao Longtu had a keen mind, and instantly thought of a possibility: "There must be many underground rivers in the mountains, and the underground river water nourishes the plants and trees in the mountains, and then the sun evaporates the grass and trees in the mountains to form clouds and mist ......."

"Well, that's right, it's the truth."

Bao Longtu's tone was categorical, no matter whether others believed it or not, he believed it himself anyway.

“…… You're all done, what else do we have to say. Fang Yuan shrugged his shoulders and smiled helplessly: "Okay, let's ignore these clouds and mountains and fog for now, let's go to Boss Du's ancestral house to take a look." ”

"It's long overdue." Bao Longtu nodded hurriedly.

At that moment, under the guidance of Boss Du, everyone shuttled through the village. Sure enough, there were no people in the village, and most of the houses were empty, with a lot of dust and cobwebs.

Fang Yuan took a closer look and found that most of the houses in the village were made of mud bricks, and the stones were pasted with mud, and after careful assembly, they formed solid walls. As for the roof, it is gray-black tiles.

The stone walls and black tiles are unpretentious and unpretentious, full of the vicissitudes of time. Fang Yuan's eyes were sharp, and when he looked closely, he found that some stone walls seemed to have been repaired repeatedly, leaving many traces of the old and the new.

Finding such a situation, Fang Yuan couldn't help but ask, "Boss Du." How long has your village been in zài? ”

"Uh......" Boss Du hesitated: "It should have been a long time, I heard the old man in the village say that it seems to be more than a thousand years ago." Our ancestors lived in the mountains. ”

"More than a thousand years ago?" Fang Yuan thought for a moment and asked again, "What is the reason?"

"What is the reason?" Boss Du was a little puzzled.

"Generally speaking, people prefer to settle in groups at the foot of the mountain." Fang Yuan analyzed: "And the villages located in the deep mountains and old forests are either forced to migrate in order to avoid the turmoil of the sword soldiers; Either it is a naturalized ethnic minority, and after being educated from generation to generation, it has become a completely Sinicized village. Boss Du, what do you think. What kind of village does your village belong to? ”

"This ......," Boss Du said uncertainly, "It should be the first category." ”

"I also think the first category is more likely." Fang Yuan gestured: "Just look at the houses in the village, all of them are fortress stone houses with iron walls, and the houses are well distributed. It's like an ancient military camp tent. ”

"So I don't think your village has been militarized for a long time, or it has simply been garrisoned by the army, so that it has left such a distinct layout style."

Fang Yuan sighed: "No matter what the reason is. It also fully illustrates how difficult the people's livelihood was at that time. I had to go through all the hardships to carve out my own home in the mountains. ”

"Barracks?" Bao Longtu was a little confused: "Good and dignified, why are you stationing troops in the mountains?" ”

"Who knows wow." Fang Yuan shook his head and said, "This needs to be examined by experts." ”

While talking, several people also walked to Boss Du's ancestral house, which was a relatively tall and spacious mansion. The house was wider than the rest of the village, and it was fortified. Sturdy and sturdy.

After a glance, Bao Longtu was a little surprised: "Boss Du." Your family is so big, and your ancestors are also big families, right? ”

"This ......" Boss Du said with a reserved smile: "It's not a big family, but it is said that my ancestors have been village leaders for generations, and they can be regarded as having a small amount of money. ”

"Of course, at the time, it must have been a good house. But now, it's not enough. Boss Du smiled bitterly: "It's okay to stay for one or two nights once in a while, but after staying for a long time, it's all kinds of uncomfortable, very uncomfortable." ”

Fang Yuan also understood what Boss Du meant, after all, he was used to living in a modern building with bright windows and a very bright hall, and then looked at the ancient mansion door, although he felt that the ancient mansion door was very simple and elegant, and it was very meaningful.

But when you really live in it, you will feel that the door of the ancient mansion is inconvenient everywhere, there is no electricity, no lights, no modern facilities, no Internet access, no mobile phone hotspot signal......

For modern people, I am afraid that it is almost the same as going to prison, which is a kind of torment.

To be honest, some of the retro buildings now are all improved, a combination of Chinese and Western. It not only retains the aesthetic taste of ancient Chinese architecture, but also brings many modern facilities, which is in line with the living habits of modern people, which makes people yearn for it.

And Boss Du's ancestral house is purely an ancient house.

Under the guidance of Boss Du, everyone strode into the gate and walked into this dark ancient mansion.

It is a little different from the common ancient houses, Boss Du's ancestral house is a fortress-like structure, a bit similar to the urn city, with stone walls, the windows are very small, the lighting is insufficient, and it is naturally dark.

Because Boss Du asked people to take care of the cleaning, the ancient house was very clean and tidy, without any dust, cobwebs, and no suffocating atmosphere. Moreover, the thick stone is insulated, and everyone walks in it, and they also feel that the air is very cool and comfortable.

After visiting, everyone found that the ancestral house is a large mansion gate composed of five or six courtyards, each courtyard is scattered around the central circular patio, which is somewhat similar to the pattern of stars holding the moon.

In addition, on the periphery of the house, there are several watchtower-like secret whistles, as well as air holes......

Fang Yuan and Bao Longtu thought it was a blowhole, but Boss Du explained that they used to have guns at home, not only ancient red tassel wood guns, but also modern muskets. No matter what kind of gun it is, the head or muzzle of the gun can be poked out through the guò air hole.

Imagine if someone had bad intentions and climbed the wall outside, then just stick a gun out of the head, or shoot a gusset machine......

"Yin damage." Bao Longtu looked outside through the air holes, and couldn't help but be speechless.

"In the past, there were more bandits, and everyone was forced to ...... helplessly" Boss Du explained a few sentences, then turned around and said: "Master Fang, do you think there is anything strange about this house?" ”

Everyone spent more than ten minutes, under the leadership of Boss Du, carefully looked at every corner of the house. Walking down in a circle, Fang Yuan also had a little surprise in his eyes.

"How can I say it......" Fang Yuan scratched his head and said, "The house is actually quite ordinary, the structure is quite ancient, but there is nothing special about it. ”

"That's right." Boss Du was not disappointed, but nodded and said: "I have looked at many experts, and after careful study, they have come to the same conclusion." The house is really ordinary, and if there is any difference, it is found that after research, the ancestral house seems to be in the shape of more than a thousand years ago, and it has not changed to this day......"

"The shape of a thousand years ago?" Bao Longtu was surprised: "Really fake? ”

"That's what the experts say, anyway." Boss Du explained: "They found that most of the structure of the house was the most popular form of house in Wenzhou more than 1,000 years ago. Among them, there is a slight difference, and it is estimated that it was added by later generations in the process of repair......"

"However, the overall layout and structure of the house is still based on ancient shapes, which can be called a model work of ancient architecture, which is of great representative significance and research value, which is equivalent to a living fossil in the history of architecture!"

Boss Du said with a smile: "After the expert commented, he asked me if I would like to declare the provincial inheritance or something, and he promised that it could definitely be approved." How can I have such spare time, so I naturally declined politely. ”

"A thousand-year-old building!"

At this time, Fang Yuan frowned and pondered, and asked again: "Boss Du, think about it carefully, did Immortal Xiao just walk around here back then, and didn't do anything else?" ”

"Nope." Boss Du said categorically: "I have been next to him all the time, and I can see it very clearly." He just walked around and left directly, without any other action at all. And the route he traveled is the same as the route I took you just now, no different......"

"That's right." Fang Yuan pondered and meditated, only to feel that there were a thousand things to worry about, but he couldn't sort out the reason.

At this moment, Bao Longtu reminded: "Don't you know how to look at each other, you can take a look." ”

A word woke up the person in the dream, Fang Yuan reacted at this time, and quickly nodded: "That's right, then go outside and take a look." ”

In the game, you must not be angry, only when you go outside the house and start from scratch, can you look at the house. After all, it is more exquisite, and it is impossible to know the good and evil at a casual glance, so it must be carefully examined.

Hearing that Fang Yuan was going to live together, Boss Du was also very happy, and hurriedly led everyone outside.

After going out, Fang Yuan deliberately walked away for a distance before looking back, and commented on the scene: "The house stands by the mountain, sitting ......" For a moment, he suddenly lost his voice, and his voice stopped abruptly, but he couldn't go on.

After waiting for half a sound and didn't hear any movement, Bao Longtu couldn't help but ask, "What's the matter, why don't you say it?" ”

“…… I can't go on! Fang Yuan's expression changed slightly, and his heart was beating wildly inexplicably: "I can't even determine what direction the house is facing, how can I go on?" ”

"The direction is not simple, it is just the four directions of southeast, northwest and north. At the door of this house, it is clearly a ......," Bao Longtu said, and suddenly fell silent.

At this time, the others realized that they were surrounded by a thick sea of clouds, and even the sun was obscured, and there was no specific reference, so it was really difficult to discern the direction.

Bao Longtu looked left and right, and naturally muttered: "It's evil, I knew to carry a compass or compass with me......"

"The compass is useless." Boss Du suddenly said: "A feng shui master has tried it before, probably because there are zài magnetite ore and the like in the mountains, anyway, as soon as you come here, the compass floating needle will turn around, and it will not be useful at all." ”

"What?" Fang Yuan's heart suddenly burst into shock, and he exclaimed, "Boss Du, are you sure that the compass has no effect?" ”

"Sure." Boss Du asked confusedly, "Master Fang, is there anything wrong with this?" ”

Fang Yuan didn't speak for a long time, just looked around, and a thought flashed in his heart: "Blinding the Heavenly Machine......" (to be continued......
