Chapter 129: The Village of the Deep Mountain (5)

"No, you can't say anything!

It's not that I, Ma Wuyan, don't believe it, it's because Ling Zun was kind to Ma back then, that I can't watch you die in the afterlife.

That gang, that gang of girls in the mountains...... They're man-eating goblins! ”

Yang Congxun never thought that when he and Hu Sanyi rushed to Ma Laoke's mansion in the south of the capital.

As soon as he mentioned to Ma Laoke that he was the son of the old man Yang Xindu, and this time he came to visit the place where his mother was born, Ma Wu, who was originally full of smiles, actually changed his expression at that moment, and then shook his head like a wave drum.

Seeing that the old guest of Nama was disrespectful to his mother, Yang Congxun was angry.

"Senior Ma, Xiao Dao respects you as an old friend of your father, and I didn't dare to be the slightest slack when I was interrogated before, but why did you say anything to slander my mother's innocence, how could she be a goblin who eats people?"

Seeing Yang Congxun jumping up directly from the chair, Ma Wu also realized that he had said the wrong thing for a while, and hurriedly apologized to Yang Congxun with an embarrassed face.

"Forgive me, nephew, Fang Cai Ma was excited for a while, and then he accidentally abruptly Ling Gaotang.

The virtuous and virtuous lady of the high hall, Ma is naturally admired.

It's just that you have to be considerate of Ma's good intentions, the 'Gege'ao' located in the depths of the mountains is definitely a Longtan tiger's den that no one can approach!

Ma said that he couldn't watch his nephew go to death! ”

When he heard Ma Laoke inadvertently mention the three words 'Gegeao', Yang Congxun was stunned for a moment.

"Ge Ge Ao? Could it be that there is a group of Gege living in that mountain col?

Master Wu, what are you kidding? Doesn't this guy live in the palace? ”

"Gegedu...... Do you all live in the palace? ”

Who knew that Ma Wuye, who was on the other side, was stunned for a while when he heard Yang Congxun's question, and then he hammered his chest with his hand and laughed.

"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding! Oh, Ma only then remembered that his nephew was not from our banner, no wonder there was such a question.

Virtuous nephew, we call those young girls Gege.

As for the heavenly nobles in the palace, we must add titles such as 'Heshuo and Gushan' before they are called.

A single Gege, that is the meaning of a young girl. ”

(Anyway, when we checked the living notes of the Qing Dynasty emperor for the first time that year, Leng Buding saw a record on it that 'Emperor Yongzheng recruited Su Gege on a certain day in a certain month'!)

At that time, we were so scared that we quickly closed the book to check the information, only to find out that 'Gege' is the meaning of a young girl in Manchu, as long as it is a young lady, then anyone can be Gege.

For example, those low-level female officials in the emperor's harem, because of the large number of people, it is easy to have the same surname, so the title 'Gege' will be introduced to distinguish each other.

If both of them have the surname Su, that one is called Su Promise, and the other is called Su Gege.

To reiterate, the Manchu word for 'Gege' means young girl, not just a princess. )

"The virtuous nephew doesn't know, this 'Gege Ao' is outside our pass, it is a tiger's den like a Longtan tiger's den.

Listening to those mountain walkers who inadvertently broke into the 'Gege' during the climb to the mountain, the strangest place in this 'Gege' is that there is only 'Gege'! ”

Ma Laoke told the ignorant Yang Congxun that this 'Gegeao' deep in the mountains is like the Xiliang Women's Country in "Journey to the West", and there are only women in the entire village!

Listening to Ma Laoke, he followed his master to walk the mountains outside the gate before, and met the brothers who walked together by chance.

At that time, because I admired each other's skills, they also exchanged names with each other.

However, the next year, Ma Laoke returned to the northeast to hunt for deer fetuses.

When he was talking to the owner of the Guanwai Mountain Goods Farm, he accidentally learned that the brothers who were outstanding in their skills had actually washed their hands and never left the mountain.

(The mountain pickers hunt deer fetuses as emperors, and they have to hand over a certain number of deer fetuses to the palace every year.)

This is an errand that should be shared, and the reward given by the palace is relatively thin.

However, when the mountain miners hunted deer fetuses, if they could get other rare mountain goods along the way, they could keep them for themselves.

Therefore, before going up the mountain, the mountain pickers will find the owner of the mountain goods village who specializes in collecting mountain goods, and inquire about the recent market of mountain goods. )

At that time, the pair of brothers who walked the mountain were in the prime of life, not only did their craftsmanship be good, but they were also called loudly.

Now it is time to hurry up and go to the mountains to find goods, so as to accumulate a coffin book for the elderly, why did you suddenly rush to retreat from the golden basin and wash your hands?

Therefore, that year, after hunting enough deer fetuses, Ma Laoke and the others went around to inquire about the whereabouts of the two brothers.

After a lot of effort, the group finally found the two brothers in a very remote mountain village...... Halfway.

Why is it half the story?

Because they only found the elder of the two brothers, and they were still crazy, sometimes understanding and sometimes confused.

In order to find out the reason why this man went crazy, the old guest entrusted a colleague to bring the deer fetus back to the capital.

After that, they simply stayed in the mountain village, waiting by the side of Fu Ying (the elder brother who walked the mountain) every day, and finally waited for the day when he would not go crazy.

According to Fu Ying's recollection, when he and his brother went up the mountain to hunt deer antlers, he accidentally alarmed a hungry bear who was out looking for food.

In order to escape the hungry bear's pursuit, the two brothers gritted their teeth and burrowed into a col they had never been to before.

In the end, the hungry bear was successfully thrown off by them, but they also lost their way, and walked around the mountains for four or five days in a row, and could not get out of the old woods.

By the early morning of the sixth day, the dry food and drinking water that the two men had brought with them when they entered the mountain had been exhausted.

However, just when the two thought that they were going to starve to death in the mountains and forests this time, so they were so depressed that they lay down under a towering tree and closed their eyes and waited for death, they suddenly heard a silver bell-like woman's laughter from behind the tree not far away.

Now the two brothers were even more frightened, thinking that since they shook off the mad bear, they had not seen any signs of activity in the forest for four or five days.

How could there be a young girl in such an inaccessible mountain?

Needless to say, the laughter of these women must have been made by the kind of spirit that can create hallucinations to confuse the mountain walkers.

Once these spirits have bewitched the minds of the other person, they will lead the person alive into a trap and kill them in order to feast on the flesh and blood of that person.

Although the two brothers knew that they were running out of food and water at the moment, and they were afraid that their days were really short, but this death of thirst and starvation and being torn and eaten by the spirits were by no means the same fate.

So the two brothers hurriedly exerted their last strength, put their hands together, and trembled and recited the Buddha's name.

As soon as they had just read two sentences, they heard a sudden "huh" from behind the tree, and the sound of laughter and frolic stopped.

Then I heard the sound of the bushes beside the trees, and out of them came several young girls dressed in fishskin jackets, wearing crowns of flower feathers, a pair of deerskin boots, and holding some clay pots and blue in their hands.

As soon as the girl at the head saw Fu Ying and Fu Xiong lying under the big tree, the brothers were stunned.

After frowning and thinking for a long time, the girl stammered and asked in Oroqen: "Outsiders? How did you get to our stockade? ”

(The Oroqen are a minority who prefer a safari life in the mountains and forests more than the Manchus, and live in immortal pillar tents in the mountains all year round.)

This Oroqen means hunter wandering in the mountains and forests.

Therefore, Oroqen is a common language used by mountain walkers to communicate with each other. )

It turned out that the two brothers had been wandering around the mountain for a few days, and finally they had accidentally stumbled into the 'Gege Ao' in the depths of the mountain!
