Chapter 5: The Guided Tour of Time and Space
It is said that during the Guanghe period of the Eastern Han Dynasty, at the foot of Mangjie Mountain, there was a dragon and tiger cottage, which was formed by the merger of several mountain villages in ten miles and eight townships.
The stockade was built in a large valley, surrounded by mountains, and the entrance was made of boulder loess to form a simple pass.
There is no way, bandits have been rampant in recent years, and the villagers have to take over the village to protect themselves.
This dragon and tiger village, because it is located on the edge of the mountain, there is not much farmland, so it has to rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, most of them make a living by hunting, and they are fierce with the folk customs.
Since repelling several mountain bandits, although everyone's life is still a little poor, they have finally passed a few years safely.
But in March of this year, two fierce beasts appeared in the mountains on which the villagers depended.
One is a thousand-year-old white tiger, and the other is a 10,000-year-old dragon.
One to ten, ten to hundred, the more mysterious.
At first, no one took it seriously.
Later, several people were bitten by white tigers in the mountains, and soon some people were eaten by dragons in the mountains and streams. After learning that there were indeed two harmful monsters, everyone panicked, there was no mountain to rely on, how to survive in the future!
Cao Xing is skilled in martial arts, superb in archery, and helps others on weekdays, so he is naturally regarded as the backbone of the cottage in times of crisis.
Without saying a word, Cao Xuan took more than a dozen of the best hunters from the cottage into the mountains to eliminate harm for the villagers!
Mangjie Mountain is high and deep, the mountains are vertical and horizontal, with a radius of nearly 1,000 miles, and the dense fog does not disperse all day long at this time, to find these two evils, even experienced hunters like Cao Xing are not sure.
After entering the mountain, follow the clues, carefully search all the way, sleep in the open for many days, find countless peaks in Fangyuan, wade through the surrounding rivers and streams, and there is still no trace of the white tiger and the dragon!
At noon that day, everyone was a little depressed, and after taking out the dry food and drinking some mountain spring grass and grass to eat, they were busy and busy, each tinkering with their own gadgets, and relaxing the tense emotions that had been in place for several days.
Cao Xing plays a good flute.
Woo, the flute is melodious, desolate and euphemistic, like a bird crying and an ape, echoing and flowing in the quiet valley, everyone unconsciously stopped their work and listened quietly...
snapped, a hand suddenly slapped on Cao Xing's shoulder, and the flute stopped abruptly.
Cao Xuan looked up and found that everyone was stunned and unwilling!
Just as he was puzzled, Dong He next to him said to him, removed his hand and quietly pointed behind him.
Cao Xuan turned his head and looked at it, and was also stunned: a monster that he had never seen before appeared in front of him, a bit like a strange big deer, but, have you ever seen a deer with a single horn on its head?! What's even more bizarre is that it has a white curly hair, which clings to its body in a circle, and it looks like it is covered in a fish-scale armor, and it is definitely not a deer!
The deer-like one-horned monster seemed to like to listen to music very much, and it looked at Cao Xing with a look of unfinished business, probably attracted by Cao Xing's flute.
"Don't be afraid, it should be a unicorn, quick, let's catch it!"
In his early years, Brother Xu Zhou served as the nursing home of a large merchant of the Mi family in Xuzhou, and often ran with the caravan all over the world, and was well-informed and deeply respected by everyone.
Seeing Brother Xu's reminder, everyone hurriedly pulled out the bowstring, lifted the fishing net, grabbed the iron spear and lined up in a fan-shaped circle to chase over.
The unicorn turned and leaped, and flew straight towards the cliff in front of him.
There is a large reservoir on the left side of the mountain road, and the jungle on the right, so as long as it gets into the jungle, it doesn't have to chase it.
Jumping into the water may also escape the hunters' arrows; But he went to a dead end: straight to the cliff! Does it want to die headlong?!
The cliff was not far away, and in just a few breaths, the unicorn rushed to the cliff and roared at the cliff, and between the rolling waves and the churning of dust and grass, the cliff actually cracked a big hole out of thin air!
The Kirin swooped in.
Cao Xing, Xu Zhou and Dong Hegang, who rushed in front, wanted to stop their steps, but there was a strong suction force that enveloped them, and in an instant, they were swept into the hole, and in an instant, several people spun around and lost consciousness.
The hole behind them was quickly and magically closed.
After waking up, several people were at a loss. Everything is so strange, I don't know where I am?
For three or four months, the three of them could not find their way out, and they were in fear in this strange mountain.
Fortunately, there is no shortage of wild beast food in the mountains, but it is also maddening to stay in the deep mountains and old forests all the time.
On a cloudy day, Dong He couldn't bear homesickness, he brought weapons and dry food and hurriedly explained a few words to the two, and didn't turn back to the east...
For seven or eight days, Dong and Xu had no news, and Cao Xu couldn't, so they had to hurriedly look for them.
Fortunately, Dong He left markers along the way, and they followed the prompts all the way east, and the more they went, the more wrong they became... At first, I just felt that my breathing was a little uncomfortable, and I couldn't care about it so much! The two of them fought their spirits and supported each other to continue to search...
The trip was extremely difficult, and after suffering for most of the day, the two couldn't support it anymore, and sat on the ground panting for breath... As long as you get up and move your heels slightly, it's like someone squeezing your neck!
The sky finally had eyes, and in a trance, not far ahead, under an ancient pine tree that was difficult for two or three people to embrace, they found Dong He.
Dong He was slumped on a big rock under the tree at this time, and he couldn't see it anymore.
The two endured their grief and fought for their lives to help Dong He go back, and when they returned to the cave, Dong He was no longer awake, but Cao He and Xu Zhou miraculously recovered as before? !
In the evening, Dong He woke up, his face flushed, and there was a hint of excitement in his hoarse voice, and he said to his brother and sister: "Fairyland, I saw Wonderland!" There's a big iron cart that's moving fast! There are iron birds flying in the sky that are bigger than houses, and those people in the fairyland live in buildings higher than mountains..."
Suddenly, he used his last strength to raise his voice: "Brother Xu, Brother Cao, the immortal world outside is not something that mortals like me can enter!" Don't go out of the woods, remember! ”
After returning to the light and explaining his words, Dong He's flushed face was dull, and his breath became weaker and weaker, and the vitality gradually dissipated in the painful eyes of Xu and Cao!
The two looked at each other tacitly, and suddenly realized!
At this point, the two of them gave up the idea of going out of the mountain, and stayed in the mountains to hunt and fish.
The stars are moving, and there are 3 cold and hot summers in a flash...
Not long ago, Xu Zhou found the traces of the unicorn while hunting, and traced the past...
By the time Cao Xing found him, he was already out of breath!
Beside him, he left four words crookedly: "Kirin, go home!" ”
Hurriedly buried Xu Zhou, Cao Xing walked back with a wooden-handled spear.
At this moment, what Cao Xuan didn't know was that a huge black bear was already blocking the intersection, waiting to enjoy today's lunch!
The alertness of the weakened hunter has dropped to zero.
When Cao Xuan found the danger, the beast had already pounced in front of him, and he hurriedly swung his spear to stab it, but the spear was slapped away by the giant palm of the black bear. When his life hung in the balance, Cao Xing was ruthless, tore off the thin rope on the jade pendant around his waist, used it as a weapon, and pierced the beast's eye socket as if he were dying!
The black bear was hit hard by this and fled, and Cao Xing mustered up his courage and shot an arrow at the beast, and after that, he didn't know anything...
"Did you use that wolf totem jade pendant?" Through some analogy, I described the shape of the jade pendant in Wang Dahai's hand.
Cao Xing nodded and talked about the origin of the jade pendant: "This is my ancestral heirloom, and it has been nearly a hundred years since the 5th generation. At that time, my ancestor rode with the general Dou Xian to defeat the Northern Xiongnu and broke the Xiongnu in Jiluoshan. My ancestors killed hundreds of enemies, beheaded the Hun Zuoxian King, and got this jade pendant. ”
After speaking, he sighed, not only looking forward to the achievements of his ancestors, but also blaming himself for the current downfall of his unfilial descendants!
It turns out that the origin of this jade pendant is not simple, it will be the ornament worn by King Zuoxian of the Huns!
That old expert at the museum really didn't have a good eye! The year 2000 is just a snap of a finger!
I gradually figured out some clues, and suddenly I was pleasantly surprised to find that they are likely to be the legendary traversers, and the mystery of the savages in Shennongjia is probably like this: the so-called savages are likely to be these traversers from ancient times!
There really is a unicorn in this world!
And this legendary beast may be born with a discerning eye and can easily find wormholes, which are also known as "time and space tunnels".
It is more likely that it is a new species created by some kind of advanced intelligent race using genetic technology, and its mission is to be born for wormholes, similar to the function of GPS, just imagine, a living wave of cute unicorn compared to a cold wormhole locator, is it more humane!
Unexpectedly, the tour guide of this time and space journey easily cracked the wormhole and brought Cao Xing and others from the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty to today's Shennongjia!
Compared with the modern society with serious environmental pollution, destruction of vegetation and endless emergence of various viruses, Shennongjia is indeed a pure land. Cao Xing and others can survive in the pristine environment of Shennongjia, once out of the primeval forest, these ancients have no resistance to the raging virus, strong ultraviolet rays, and polluted air! So the more Cao Xing walked out, the weaker his body became, and when I helped him into the depths of the forest, his body quickly recovered.
Lao Tzu is so talented!
I danced with my hands, excitedly took out my mobile phone, and a song of 'eyebrow flying' made me happy.
Suddenly, Cao Xing's mouth opened wide, and his eyes were staring at me deadly.
I turned my head curiously - it was a unicorn!
My mother, less than 10 meters behind him, the legendary unicorn with a single horn shook his head at the moment, and was having fun following the hot rhythm of 'Eyebrow Flying Color Dance'?!
The blood was surging, and I picked up my backpack with a hot head, grabbed the mountain knife, and ran towards it. Only 3 meters, 2 meters 1 meter... The unicorn disappeared all at once! What the hell is TMD.
For several days, I regretted it, and I longed to hit me to death with a piece of ice tofu.
We came back from hunting that night and never went back to the cave to rest. It's already more than 9 o'clock, I don't feel sleepy, and even Cao Xing doesn't want to rest. I was pacing back and forth in front of the cave, Cao Xing was standing not far from me, looking up at the night sky, the corners of his mouth were shaking slightly, was he homesick?
I'm bored flipping through my phone and having a little music at hand, is there a mistake? Two springs reflect the moon!
This sad erhu made me even more depressed.
Cao Xing came to my side at some point and listened quietly, I couldn't see his expression clearly, but I could obviously feel that he was a little depressed.
The music is like crying! Haunting in the empty valley... Suddenly, near the end of the mountain wall, two small flaming fireballs appeared in the air, jumping and jumping.
Cao Xing roared: "Qilin! ”
I immediately realized that these two little fireballs were the eyes of the unicorn in the night!
Cao Xuan desperately ran towards the pair of fireballs.
This is the second chance I have won the jackpot, and if I miss it, I will be struck by lightning!
I grabbed my backpack and rushed forward with all my strength!
Running to the mountain wall, the pair of fireballs disappeared at once, and a hole was inexplicably cracked in the mountain wall, Cao Xing crashed into it, and Xin Yiheng himself also broke into it.
Suddenly, I was enveloped by a strange feeling that I had never experienced before... I turned my head around in surprise, only to see that the hole behind me was closing unexpectedly quickly! In an instant, I had a splitting headache, I felt that the world was spinning, my feet couldn't help but weaken, I fell to the ground, and gradually lost consciousness...
