Banai is the village where Agui and his family live, and it is also a typical Yao village, but they have only lived for a few days and have no idea about the terrain of the village. When Yun Cai said this, Wu Xie was really a little surprised: "Banai? ”

"Where's the like?" The fat man took the picture, "Aren't all your villages here?" ”

But Yun Cai shook his head and said, "I'm not talking about the house, but about the whole stockade." The roads and fences here are exactly the same as our village. ”

Yun Cai didn't dare to say dead, handed the picture to Ah Gui, and said, "Daddy, take a look." ”

They also immediately rushed over.

Ah Gui looked at it, and didn't seem to understand it at first, Yun Cai changed the direction of the map, and then said a few words to him in the local dialect, he suddenly realized, scratched his head and said, "Huh! It's kind of like that. ”

They referred to the road near Agui's house and found that the road and trend were very close to the map, and sure enough, it was so.

"How can there be two identical stockades?" At this time, Wu Xie said in surprise.

A-Ning didn't think: "Why is it impossible? There are no wonders about the size of the world. "Besides, we've also encountered bloody corpses, forbidden women, and so on. She added in her mind.

This plan depicts a stockade sunk under the lake, which may have been hundreds or thousands of years ago, but now it is found that the stockade at the bottom of the lake has countless high similarities with a real village, Wu Xie felt creepy, and inevitably shivered, and his intuition told him that there might be a big problem here.

Wu Xie took a few breaths and pressed the goosebumps back, and then let the clouds point out all the similarities, and he had to determine which ones could not have been formed for some special and reasonable reason.

Wu Xie's face was a little frightened, and Yun Cai saw that he was so serious, he was scared and didn't dare to speak.

The fat man patted him and asked him not to scare the little sister, and he realized that he had lost his temper.

Wu Xie studied architecture, so he knew more about this kind of thing, and asked about the clouds, from the location of several decorative archways at the entrance of the village, to the large number of bluestone roads, fences, and the arrangement of houses, all of which are really very similar, and can also be said to be exactly the same.

There is only one possibility to create such a situation, and that is that the ancient village and Banai at the bottom of this lake were designed by the same designer.

But how could a village be designed by a designer? Villages are all naturally formed, and all the villagers have spontaneously deployed them over the millennium, looking for the most suitable places to build houses, looking for the most reasonable routes, so as to slowly form the layout of roads and houses.

What Wu Xie cares about the most is the similarity of the height of the road. Once a village is formed, especially in a mountain village, the road is something that is unlikely to change for a long time, hence the saying "the west wind of the ancient road". As for the road, the most the villagers have done is to repair it, and it is impossible to remove the entire road and reopen a new one.

Therefore, the ancient road in Banai Village is highly similar to the road in the ancient village at the bottom of the lake, which is extremely abnormal and can even be said to be weird.

For Wu Xie, a person who studies architecture, it is even more tormenting, all kinds of things that he has seen before are constantly tumbling in his mind, but he doesn't know what he is looking for.

The fat man hadn't realized how deeply Wu Xie was thinking, and he asked, "Naive, have you ever heard of this kind of thing before?" ”

Wu Xie shook his head and asked him not to ask, this is not just "heard of", there are two buildings with similar structures, in history, only one person has done this kind of thing, that is, Wang Zanghai. The city of Qujing, which he was responsible for designing, was exactly the same as the city of Macau, but it was a city-level category, the city could be planned, the village was completely different, and he had never heard of two villages that were exactly the same.

Moreover, if both villages existed, it could be said to be a spectacle, or the evil taste of some hidden master, but now, one exists, and the other actually sinks to the bottom of the lake.

No matter what Wu Xie told himself, don't think in a complicated direction, but his intuition always told him that what happened here was definitely not a single line. The fragment in his hand now is nothing more than the outermost layer of that "truth" onion.

The fat man saw that Wu Xie didn't react, so he asked the little brother again.

The little brother didn't answer him, he didn't seem to be interested in this, just looked at the picture in a daze.

"Hey! This one by one! The fat man looked at Mengli and A-Ning again, "Sister, what do you think?" ”

A-Ning shook his head: "I don't have a clue, I can't think of it." ”

Mengli pointed at Agui and said, "Let's listen to what he has to say first." ”

Ah Gui dodged and said: "We have a legend, and we all say that the village is not in that place, but in Sheephorn Mountain. Maybe it's like what the fat boss said, the village below is our ancient village, the village is not burned, it is flooded, and then our ancestors will go to a similar place outside, and then build a village according to the original pattern, anyway, the mountain here is similar to the mountain outside us! ”

Wu Xie said to him: "Unless your ancestors have a deep knowledge of Kanyu Xueyou, otherwise, even if you intend to imitate it, it will be difficult to imitate it to this extent. ”

To achieve this similarity, it was necessary to carry out accurate planning and surveying when the original village was not submerged, and the Yao people at that time were still in the uncivilized stage, so it was impossible to have such attainments.

Yun Cai pouted, "Boss, why do you look down on Yaomin?" Maybe there really is such a person! ”

Wu Xie smiled bitterly, not that he wanted to think so, but if this was the case, then the matter would be complicated, so he replied: "Even if there is such a person, it doesn't make sense, because there is no need." Yao culture is not harsh on the planning of buildings, so why do you have to make it the same as the previous village? The layout of this village itself does not have any special implication. ”

There are many villages in China that were built by high-ranking people, for example, there is a Yuyuan village in Zhejiang, which was built by Liu Bowen according to the astrological signs, and the whole village is a huge astrolabe. But now the floor plan of this ancient village at the bottom of the lake is very unplanned, and with Wu Xie's experience, there is no strangeness.

"And what do you think?" The fat man asked, "You must have something in mind." ”

Indeed, Wu Xie had some speculation, but speculation was actually useless, so he shook his head: "I can just say with certainty that this is deliberate, and it took a lot of effort, because ordinary people can't cultivate this similarity even if they want to." What he found most incomprehensible was that there was no local legend for such an obvious thing.

Gui has memories of several generations, and their village is very old. That is, this COPY behavior happened much earlier. But judging from some signs in Zhangjialou, the time for jade mining will not be too late. The backflow of the lake water should have been after the jade mining, otherwise the pit would not have been repaired.

The three things, COPY, the backfilling of the lake water, and the mining of the jade mine, are arranged in chronological order, and it should be COPY earlier than the jade mining, and the backfilling of the lake last.

In other words, before the jade mining, that lake did not exist. The village is not flooded, even if it is deserted, it is still there.

Well, the locals will know that there are two villages that are exactly the same. Even if one of them was later flooded, it would be so old that there would at least be a legend.

Moreover, the radiation range of this legend will be very wide, even in other villages dozens of miles away, it will inevitably be spread.

But Gui said that there was no legend that mentioned the village at the bottom of the lake. This hidden ancient village is like an accident, completely forgotten in the course of history.
