Chapter 316: Jade Coffin of Bihu (I)
Rao is all the people living in the Gaoshan clan did not expect that such a mystery would be hidden in the unfathomable Bitan in the middle of the Lingshan Mountain, where they have lived for generations.
Over the years, the people of the Gaoshan tribe have fed many families by the fish in this lake, and all the people who do not have much cultivated land have made a living by fishing, the fish and shrimp in this lake have never decreased, and the people of the Gaoshan tribe are also very restrained, only catch enough fish and shrimp from it to eat, and now the coffin found is really incredible.
More than a dozen middle-aged men from the Gaoshan tribe, three fishing boats floated forward and tied the coffin with hemp ropes, and the people on the shore pulled the coffin up together. After a lot of effort, the beads of sweat on the faces of several middle-aged men seeped out like beans, and finally gritted their teeth and pulled the coffin ashore.
The patriarch motioned for the clansmen to leave the shore, after all, this coffin looked very ominous, originally like such a heavy jade, it would not rise to the surface at all, but I don't know why, even with such a weight, this coffin can still easily surface.
What people didn't expect was that the ornament carved in the center of the coffin turned out to be the pattern of the four divine beasts, the green dragon and the white tiger and the vermilion bird Xuanwu, and the patriarch's face suddenly turned pale.
Hurriedly turned sideways and invited a few elders over.
The first one is the white-bearded old man who just spoke, the old man's deep eyes looked at this coffin seriously, the coffin made of white jade is unheard of, and it appears in the lake between these two spiritual mountains, it is a big mystery, from the appearance of the coffin, the materials are carefully selected are all good jade, even in such a rainy weather, through the unclear light can still be seen the delicacy and luster of the jade, except for the corners because of the moss attached to the lake water soaked for a long time, The delicacy of this coffin is really amazing.
The fine carving like a gossamer, the fine texture will carve out the charm of the beast to the fullest, even the people standing aside are not a single person who is not shocked by the majestic gaze of the beast, which shows that this coffin is extraordinary.
"This coffin, don't let people approach, I'm afraid that these people can't easily touch it, I think the ornaments on this jade coffin are very likely to be left over from ancient times, before finding out the origin of this thing, send someone to take care of this jade coffin." The elder said with a serious expression to the patriarch and the bustling clansmen not far away.
So the coffin was moved to a wooden house by the patriarch and strictly guarded by the patriarch.
During the whole process, Dayu didn't blink his eyes, such a novel thing has always been a fascinating thing for teenagers. Seeing that the coffin was once again moved to the wooden house, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes that was not easy to be noticed.
One of them spoke, "Elder, do you think there should be dead people in this jade coffin?" The crowd didn't know who said it, which caused everyone to marvel.
"yes, there shouldn't be anything unlucky in there."
"I've heard that this place was haunted by demons and monsters a long time ago."
"This jade coffin looks like an unlucky thing, you said that if our clan is because of this thing, will it cause any disaster?"
"Bah, you crow's mouth, can you stop talking nonsense."
A bunch of people behind him, babbling, these words made people listen to strange and disturbing, there was a sharp gaze in the crowd unblinking to watch the movement of the people in front of them, it was still laborious and difficult, it took half an hour to move the jade coffin to the wooden house, locked it, and the patriarch dispersed everyone.
Several elders wanted to look at each other, and unanimously decided to go towards the ancestral hall.
And that keen gaze dissipated with the crowd, Da Yu was taken away by his mother, and while twisting Da Yu's ears, he scolded and shouted at him, "You bastard boy, you haven't seen anyone all day, tell me where you went again." ”
"Auntie, I didn't go anywhere, you, you can't let it go."
"I didn't go anywhere, I couldn't find you no matter how I looked."
"Don't, I'm so old, you still carry me to make people see jokes." Dayu begged for mercy.
"yes, you're still afraid that people will see the joke." Da Yu Niang didn't give Da Yu a chance to speak, and continued to grab Da Yu and walk forward.
That night, the people of the clan did not worry about this matter, but went about their own affairs.
From time to time, the grotto heard the sound of cooking and stir-frying, as if returning to the normal order of life.
However, all this is not a trivial matter for the patriarch and several elders of the clan. Everyone in the ancestral hall had serious faces, and the white-bearded elder was the oldest elder in the Gaoshan clan today, so all the big and small matters in the clan could only be resolved through his opinion.
"Great Elder, tell me how we should deal with this matter." The patriarch was a little anxious, this was the first time such a thing had happened, and he didn't know what to do.
"In my opinion, this is a matter that needs to wait for Ah Liang to come back. Ah Liang must know more outside than we do, and I think he should know what it is. One of the elders rushed in front of Elder Whitebeard and said his opinion.
"Eh, this is a matter of our clan, why do you always want outsiders to interfere." The Great Elder's tone was displeased, since that young man named Ah Liang came here, how could the people of the Gaoshan Clan have become people who only listen to him and do things according to his instructions.
For so many years, the people of the Gaoshan tribe have gotten along very well, if it weren't for such a thing that year, where would it be the turn of such a stranger of unknown origin to point fingers at them.
The person who was said by the Great Elder felt dissatisfied, "Great Elder, you are too unkind to say this about Ah Liang, if it wasn't for Ah Liang's help, I think our entire Gaoshan Clan would have been torn apart a long time ago." You don't want to think about how much Ah Liang has done for us, just take the daughter-in-law of Ah Fu's family who gave birth to a child last month and had a hemorrhage, if it weren't for Ah Liang's timely delivery of precious medicinal materials, not to mention the child, even adults are afraid that they can't keep it, you should think about what Ah Liang has done for the people in the clan. ”
What this elder said was the civil strife of the Gaoshan tribe many years ago, and the incident back then is still lingering, and the two mountains can still live in harmony as they were many years ago, all thanks to Ah Liang.
"We people of the Gaoshan tribe can't be ungrateful." The person who was upset with Ah Liang had a reproachful tone, after all, what he said was what he saw, and it was what Ah Liang had really done for them.
