Chapter 343: Talking to the Skull

After the defeat of the Chiyou tribe, the Dongyi tribe split into three parts, one part remained in the homeland, and the small state that was later established, that is, the Donglai Kingdom, strictly speaking, this part belonged to the tomb keepers - guarding the secrets in the cracks under the Yellow River.

The kingdom of Donglai is very hidden and has left few traces in history, but historians who study it have never underestimated it, because the bronze smelting technology of this small country was at least a thousand years ahead of its time.

In fact, their smelting and casting techniques have been lost.

One of the reasons why Dongnae is so mysterious is that no tombs in this country have been found so far.

As an important tool for understanding history, ancient tombs have played an important role in archaeology, and there are no ancient tombs, and there are no relevant written records, which leads to the fact that future generations' understanding of this small country is almost blank.

After the defeat, the other two parts of the Dongyi people, one part of which merged with the Huaxia tribe, and the other part may not be willing to "reluctantly" and moved to the southeast wilderness, including the later Miao people.

The Dongyi people who moved to the southeast are divided into at least several small tribes, such as Sanxingdui in Sichuan, which is actually a member of the Dongyi tribe.

This part of the people who moved to Sanxingdui inherited and developed the bronze smelting technology of the Dongyi people, so later excavated the bronze god tree and the bronze mask with big eyes that shocked China and foreign countries in the Sanxingdui cultural site, and the Sanxingdui site also unearthed the gold "scepter", which is another important symbol of power in the Sanxingdui period.

The most representative scepter of Sanxingdui, a scepter with a residual length of 143 cm and covered with gold leaf, is decorated with a human head with a crown and earrings, as well as ornaments of arrows shooting through fish and birds.

In addition, they worship the sun god, which is the same as the Dongyi people.

At that time, some of them moved to Zhangjiajie and found a mysterious valley in the 100,000 mountains, so they settled down.

Later, like their ancestors, they accidentally discovered a cave......

When I think of that bronze door, the shock in my heart is simply indescribable, it simply does not belong to the era at that time, who cast this bronze door, and what is the purpose?

Maybe one day the mystery will be revealed.

I'm more concerned about what's behind the bronze door – and what are the giant hands that are sticking out of the bronze door? And the roar coming from the bronze door.

After resting for more than ten minutes, Wu Yuhui and Xiao He regained their strength, and both of them took off their coats, and it seemed that in the face of life and death, they would not be restrained.

Leaving the valley without a hitch, I wanted to sing a song as we walked out of the cave and saw the bright sunshine and the gently flowing river outside.

Even Hao Minyuan burst out laughing.

Wu Yuhui shook his wet hair and grabbed my arm directly: "Handsome guy, please let me eat barbecue?" ”

Xiao He hurriedly grabbed my other arm: "You have to invite me too!" ”

Several people sat paralyzed by the lake, all trying to express something, but found that no matter what they said or said, they couldn't clearly express the feelings in their hearts at this time.

Hao Minyuan means that he will report all this to the institute after he goes back, he didn't want to make everything about the insect dish Miao Village public, in fact, I also think so, so I have already discussed with Hao Minyuan, everything about the bronze door in the cave should be kept secret forever!

Maybe that's the best option.

The rest of the journey was relatively easy, and when I was about to get out of the village, I saw a person coming in the distance.

When I looked closely, it was an old man, and I knew him - it turned out to be the old fortune teller who sat next to me on the plane before.

I subconsciously touched the black pendant in my pocket.

The old man also recognized us and waved his hand to greet: "What a coincidence! Let's meet again! ”

Just when it was time for us to rest, we sat down on the floor with the old man and chatted.

"How did you get out of the mountains! Don't you know that the 100,000 mountains are not the place where people should come? The old man lit a cigarette and said with a smile.

Hao Minyuan asked the old man for a cigarette, lit it, took a few deep breaths, and looked very relaxed: "Alas! It's hard to put into words! Didn't you also go into the mountains? Looks like we're going to keep going deeper! ”

The old man smiled: "I can't help it!" ”

"No way? Could it be that someone is still forcing you to come! I quickly interjected.

"Even if it's it! My daughter is sick, and in the past two years, I have taken her to almost all famous hospitals in the country, and I have seen hundreds of doctors, but I am helpless. ”

Ginseng dolls?

I couldn't hold back and burst into laughter on the spot!

When entering the mountain, the two men who wanted to rob money also said that they came to look for ginseng dolls, so they couldn't make up a reason to be a little new?

The old man smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I know you don't believe it, and it's normal to not believe it, but I believe it!" ”

Since he said so, and it was to treat his daughter, it was very touching, and we couldn't say anything more.

Wu Yuhui may have been moved by the old man's words, and his eyes were a little moist: "Uncle, seeing that the sky is dark, have you brought a tent!" ”

The old man shook his head with a smile and flicked the cigarette handle: "It's okay! My old bones are so hard that I can sleep anywhere! ”

Xiao He hurriedly interjected: "That's not good!" The humidity in the mountains is heavy, not to mention you, even we young people can't bear it. ”

After speaking, the two of them looked at Hao Minyuan together.

Hao Minyuan reacted quickly, and hurriedly smiled: "That's it!" We brought three tents, and now it is getting dark, and it is not safe in the wilderness, so let's get together here for the night! ”

"That's right! Tomorrow morning, we will be five or six hours away, and we should be able to get out of this mountain forest and leave the tent for you! "I also hurried to persuade the old man.

The old man didn't shirk it, and nodded with a smile. 520

A few people chose a clean and level high ground, set up three tents, and took out cooking utensils to prepare for cooking.

There were only a few compressed biscuits and beef jerky left before us, and my stomach was already rumbling with hunger because of the continuous travel, and this little thing was not enough for me to eat.

The atmosphere was suddenly a little awkward.

The old man glanced at the only food we had left, smiled, and then laid his big black pot in front of us: "Dinner will be mine!" ”

After saying that, he took out a net bag from his bag and walked towards the dense forest on one side.

"What is he going to do? It seems that we still don't worry about us! I don't put down the bag on my back either......"

When the people were far away, I asked Hao Minyuan in a whisper.

Hao Minyuan shook his head: "Who knows-maybe...... Maybe pick some wild fruits! ”

I have seen a lot of wild fruits along the way, but we are not ripe for wild fruits in the south, even if they look sweet and delicious, we dare not eat them.

After waiting for about half an hour, it was a little dark, and the old man came out of the dense forest.

Seeing what he had in his hand, several people were happy.

In his left hand he held two hares, a pheasant, and in his right hand the net pocket was full of wild vegetables, including mushrooms, turnips, and emerald green, like rape.

"Okay, brother!"

The old man smiled slightly: "Mountain Village Yefu, that's all he can do, as long as he enters the mountain, he will definitely not be hungry, otherwise I won't dare to enter the mountain alone!" ”

After a burst of laughter, Hao Minyuan and I took it, and a few people went to the river to operate, and the daggers that Wu Yuhui and Hao Minyuan carried for self-defense did not expect to play a role here.

Xiao He and Wu Yuhui were responsible for collecting firewood and boiling hot water. An hour later, a pot of fragrant wild vegetable mushroom broth was cooked.

Several people are eating straight hiccups, both meat and vegetables, and it is really the original ecological food that is delicious.

There was still a lot left in the pot, and Wu Yuhui wanted to pour it out, but was stopped by the old man.

"I'm hungry at night, so leave the rest of the meat to me!"

After speaking, he picked it up with a spoon and scooped the meat from the pot into his stainless steel bowl.

I just think it's strange, maybe the old man's family is poor, and he can't see a waste of food!

At night, Hao Minyuan and I had a tent, Xiao He and Wu Yuhui had a tent, and I was about to go into the tent to sleep, when I saw Xiao He blinking at me constantly, and his mouth was still tilted to the left.

Kindness? This is eating poisonous mushrooms!

Wrong! Everyone eats the same thing, everyone else is fine...... After two glances, it dawned on me that she was hinting at me and asked me to follow her to the left.

I secretly stretched out my hand to her and made an "ok" gesture, Xiao He nodded slightly, turned around and walked towards the side of the dense forest.

"Not good...... Uncle, Brother Minyuan...... Stomach hurts, need to fix it......"

"Go farther!"

"Okay!"

Hurriedly ran in the direction where Xiao He went, and two hundred meters away, he saw Xiao He leaning against a big tree.

"You...... You don't want me to be with you again, do you? ”

Seeing that she was okay, I made a joke.

Unexpectedly, Xiao He always kept a straight face: "I don't have time to mess around with you, you didn't find out, there is something wrong with that old man!" ”

"Oh? What's wrong with him! ”

"Do you know what's in the black bag he's carrying?"

"You're talking about the black bag that he barely leaves with? Possible...... Maybe it's something important! I replied casually.

"I wanted to bring him water just now, and I just wanted to call her, guess what I heard?"

"What?" I was so angry that I wanted to scold, why did Xiao He become so wordy.

"He's talking to his backpack! Say...... Said that there are outsiders today, and the meal is a little late, which makes you hungry......"

"Oh?" My scalp was numb, but I still found an explanation - maybe he had some kind of faith! Doesn't it mean that some believers have to make offerings before they eat every meal? ”

Xiao He's face was still pale, and she shook her head: "At that time, because I was curious, I looked in from the gap in the tent, and I ...... I saw him pull open the gap in his backpack......"

Seeing the bloodless expression on Xiao He's face, my heart instantly hung in my throat.

"You...... What exactly do you see? ”

"I see...... I saw a white skull in the black bag! He actually smiled at the skull, those words ...... Those words were also said to the skull! ”

I was so shocked that I almost fell.
