Chapter 427: The Truth of the Cover-up
The room fell silent,
Tashiqi knelt on one side in a proper manner, and although he did not believe in the myths, he was still moved by the legacy of his ancestors. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Li Jiani didn't know what was going on at all, but she sensed her husband's emotions, so she restrained her expression and waited quietly for the result.
Lotus looked at all the furnishings in the room, and there were broken rocks and stone slabs that were messy and filled with information about the life of the Dogon people. His gaze swept over the stone slabs left by the Dogon ancestors with dense patterns on both sides, and asked a little casually, "Hegon, I heard that the Dogon tribe has not recorded any information about Portoro in any form. Is it? ”
"That's right." Agon nodded, "The Dogon people only pass on their religious teachings orally. ”
Since the Dogon did not have a written language, knowledge of the calendar and astronomy was included in the religious teachings. But...
"That's weird." Lotus pretended to be puzzled and frowned, and hesitated: "I once overheard something, it seems that more than a hundred years ago, someone saw a team of Dogon people in the desert near Madama in the territory of Nirge. It is said that they held in their hands a tablet of Portoro and the Telli people. ”
There was a slight change in Hegong's expression, although it was fleeting, but it was also captured by the lotus.
"I didn't know about it." A smile erupted from Hegong's withered face like tree bark, "It's been too long, maybe I forgot." Guests from afar, maybe you can elaborate. ”
"Okay." The lotus face replied without any different colors, organized the language, and said: "My wife and I met an old man from Niger during our travels in Egypt, and since I myself was very interested in the historical changes of the African continent, he told me this story during the conversation. ”
"It was probably in the middle of the 19th century that the elder of the old man encountered a group of Dogons in the central desert of Jaddo and Madama."
"They seem to be escorting .." Lotus carefully observed the subtle changes in Hegong's face, and changed her words: "Or is it looking for... Looking for something. ”
"In the process of contact between the two sides, although it was very hidden, the elders of the old man still inadvertently saw a round cyan slate."
"There seem to be patterns painted on the slate." After saying this, Lotus looked at Hegong like a mirror, and after a few seconds, he smiled, "That's it." ”
"That's right." The smile on Hegon's face remained unchanged, but he waved at Zashiqi.
Zasic is not stupid at all, the conversation between the two and Hegon's current attitude all show that this matter is strange. But he was just a marginal clansman, and even if he was full of curiosity, he could only retreat unwillingly.
The High Priest's house was silent, and the dim candle flame cast a mysterious color.
Li Jiani didn't know what was going on, but she knew the fun was coming!
"That's probably Amma's instructions." The silence was broken by the voice of the elder Hegong, who trembled and stood up and bowed to the altar in the room, then turned to look at the two and said, "Have you seen or seen the slate?" ”
"Yes." Lotus's eyes flickered, and it was obvious that the story she had made up had been recognized. After all, he made up his brain, and people really knew about that action.
"So you got it? Or have you seen it? Not satisfied with this vague reply, Ghagon added: "It's important. ”
"Got it." Lotus said bluntly, he didn't think anyone could snatch Li Jiani's baby. The whole mountain has to be bulldozed for you!
Hegon's thin body trembled a little, and he looked at the man in front of him who had never taken off his turban and said, "It is important to the Dogons. ”
"Yes." Lotus nodded and agreed, "It's important to humans. ”
"Guests from afar, you don't know what it represents." Bagon said with some excitement, "It is the hope of the Dogon people. ”
What gives you hope is the dollar. Lotus smiled faintly, this is a treasure that they got in a way that ordinary people can't do at all, and they ran over to understand the situation. Is it just to send it back to others? Stop it.
Xu saw his attitude, and Hegong strengthened his tone, "The Dogon people will give everything for it. ”
"Nope." The smile on Lotus's face was still modest, "If you really knew what everything meant, then I don't think Hegong, as the High Priest, would say such a thing." ”
Hygon didn't care about the threats, he was hesitating, judging.
"And we didn't take the slate with us. Why can't we solve the problem in a civilized way? Lotus spread her hands and smiled. He really doesn't want to mess around with an old man, how boring it is.
"Husband, what's going on?" Li Jiani asked in a low voice. The woman's sixth sense made her tighten the suitcase in her hand.
"It's okay, it's okay, let's talk about it." Lotus hurriedly replied. If she knows that someone is going to rob her baby, then it is up to the old man in front of her to think about it...
"Oh, let's talk." Li Jiani sensitively sensed that something was wrong, but she didn't know what was going on. However, his expression was alerted by a relaxed state.
Hopgon's face flickered and darkened in the candlelight, and the Dogon were not a violent tribe, at least not in modern times. And he didn't know what the identities of the two men and women in front of him who looked unusual. But that slate...
"Hey." Contract sighed, raised his eyes to look at him and asked, "What do you want?" ”
"The origin of the slate and why did the Dogon go to Niger." Lotus paused and said with a smile: "And the disappearance of the Terry." ”
Hygon closed his eyes when he heard this, and the room fell silent again.
After a while, the old man's voice finally rang out.
"They didn't go to Niger, not a hundred years ago."
Lotus's eyes lit up, no wonder he could see through the lie in an instant.
"That was 800 years ago." Agon opened his eyes and looked at him deeply, "The Dogon people migrated to Bangjagara and met the Terri here, but Ghagon found that the Terry people actually have the same legend about the Mother Goddess as the Dogon people. And more detailed. ”
"The Terry people say that the goddess Nomu wanders the continent. The Terry people say that Mother Nom taught everyone. The Terry people say that the Mother Mother left something behind when she left. ”
"So the Dogons fought with the Terry over that thing." Lotus pinched her chin and added, "And that slate contains a legend about that thing." ”
"Yes." Agon nodded calmly, "The Terry people have failed, and the Dogon people have been given the slate and have added images of the Dogon people to it. Then he went to find the treasure left by the mother goddess to mankind. (To be continued.) )
