Volume 1 Wuling Qin Trail Chapter 49 The Willow Leaf Sword in the Silt
I've always been incomplete, so I hurriedly waved my hand and said, "Where can I sing any drama?" It's better for you to sing one. ”
Tuesday Mao said: "That's right! The second baby sings like a ghost, don't shout at him to sing, I haven't heard Miss Lin sing yet. Although Miss Lin is an American, in the final analysis, it is still our Tujia family, how can there be a Tujia girl who can't sing, you see another Lan girl, just open your mouth! ”
Lin Xia smiled: "Okay, then since you said that I am a Tujia girl, then it is still not okay not to sing today." But I'll say first, I'm a Tujia girl who can only sing English songs! ”
I said, "Isn't that better, I don't know how to sing in foreign languages!" ”
Lin Xia sang the song "Red River Valley" that I still listen to a lot now.
Lin Xia's voice is not as crisp and loud as Lan Meizai, but it is tactful, soft and has a unique flavor, although I didn't understand what Lin Xia sang at that time, but I was already intoxicated by Lin Xia's singing.
After a song, Mao said on Tuesday: "It's good, it's good, but it's a pity that I can't understand a word." ”
At this time, Lan Meizai had already roasted all the rabbits and sent them over, and Lan Meizai picked a hind leg and motioned for me to give it to Bo Dongha, saying that she didn't dare to go over.
I took the rabbit meat and walked to Bo Dong Ha, who was still by the river with his eyes closed, handed the meat to Bo Dong Ha and said, "Brothers, I am thanks to you today. ”
Podonha opened his eyes, took the rabbit meat, and said, "Take people's money and eliminate disasters for people." ”
I said, "Go over and have some wine!" ”
Bo Dongha chewed on the rabbit meat without raising his head and said, "If I understand it, I won't go." ”
I was bored, and went back to the fire.
Ermao said in a low voice: "This guy is a little strange. ”
Lan Meizai retorted: "Gongs and drums don't go out of the countryside, and they have their own tones. Others may just not like to talk, don't keep saying other weird. ”
On Tuesday, Mao Leng said: "Hey, Lan Meizai, I know which one is hiding behind me in Lei Gongdu, and I don't dare to look at the other." ”
Lan Meizai said: "When we first met, everyone was a little scared when I looked at him like that, but now I don't think he's a bad person, so don't talk about anything else." ”
I smiled and said, "See, Ermao, be kind-hearted in the future." ”
Tuesday Mao took a sip of wine, looked at Bo Dongha who was sitting by the river, and said: "Actually, I don't think he's bad, I just think he's more alternative and a little crazy." ”
Lin Xia looked at the small river channel with a little worry: "Where do you say this river will lead?" Now there are no mules and horses, so it's strange to climb the mountain with these equipment on your back and not die of exhaustion. ”
I said, "This river shouldn't be too short, it looks like a small ditch, and there will definitely be groundwater flowing in along the way." ”
There was nothing to say all night, and everyone slept well around the campfire.
Early the next morning, Lan Meizai took Bailong to check the set set yesterday.
At that time, there were a lot of wild things in the deep mountains and old forests, and it didn't take long for Lan Meizai to come back happily with two spoons of chicken, and the white dragon still had a porcupine in his mouth.
I praised happily: "Lan Meizai, it seems that it is the most correct choice to bring you out this time." ”
Lan Meizai heard me praise her, and raised her mouth and said, "Now I know Sa!" My Lan girl is not afraid of far, and she is not afraid of depreciation. ”
On this day, the boat was sailing in the small river, the river bends and turns, and the silt is quite thick, although I did not encounter anything unclean, but the road was very difficult, and the river was damp, which was the place with the most mosquitoes.
I took a closer look at Xia Bodongha, and found that this guy didn't even get close to him, I don't know if he rubbed any medicine, or if this guy was really like the ghost eight immortals said, the blood is full of poison.
Lin Xia went up and asked me, "Dongliang, I've been walking for two days, and I've entered the hinterland of this mountain, is the direction right or not?" ”
I said, "I've been observing for the past two days, and I set the direction the night before, which is basically the same as the direction of the river today. ”
That night, we found a stone col next to the river, buried the pot to make rice, and when everyone was still drinking and chatting, Bodongha by the river suddenly called me, "Erwa." ”。
Everyone knew that Bo Dongha usually didn't speak, but this speech was probably something, and the group picked up their guns in a panic.
I walked over to the river and asked, "What's the matter, brother?" ”
Podonha had a rusty bronze sword in his hand, and Bodongha turned the head of the sword, handed it to me, and said, "I just picked it up on the shore." ”
The high mountain roads in Wuling Mountain are narrow and dense, and they have always been unsuitable for vehicle combat, so in order to fight hand-to-hand, the Ba soldiers are all defended with short and thin bronze swords and wooden shields. The body of this sword is in the form of willow leaves, so it was called willow leaf sword by later generations.
I took this bronze sword to Lin Xia, and after Lin Xia wiped it carefully, he said excitedly: "Indeed, you can still faintly see tiger stripes, it is really the willow leaf sword of the Ba people." ”
We came to the place where the bronze sword was found in Bodongha just now, and took a closer look, and after a while, some bronze ge, willow leaf swords, copper spears and other weapons were turned out of the mud, but they were too old and almost all of them had rotted.
Lin Xia couldn't hold back his excitement and said, "Great! I didn't expect to hit it by mistake, and I lost a lot of twists and turns. It seems that this Nagaruyama should be around here. ”
I took Tong Ge and said a little puzzled: "It stands to reason that Fanjing Mountain is still far away from here, why are there Ba people's weapons here?" If you want a weapon, it should be the weapon of the Qin army. ”
Lin Xia also froze, and said, "Yes, I was only happy just now, could it be that this Changliu Mountain is also the garrison of the White Tiger Soldiers?" ”
I said, "No, Professor Wen said that when Qin destroyed the country of Ba, most of the White Tiger soldiers were killed in battle, where can Yu have so many people and still divide troops to garrison in multiple places?" ”
Lin Xia asked rhetorically: "Then how should these weapons be explained?" ”
I thought about it for a long time, and suddenly I remembered a person - Toppe.
I said, "Let's take a hypothetical." If you are Yu, Ge Zhang forced your sweetheart to death. What should you do? ”
Lin Xia woke up and said, "Naturally, you want to take revenge!" ”
I continued: "But you took people to the country of Yelang, lived in a corner, and became a general, what is the purpose?"
Lin Xia continued my words and said, "I know that I am not strong enough, so I will enrich my wings by returning to the Yelang Kingdom. Then bring people back again. ”
Lin Xia nodded again and again: "Yes, Dongliang, that means that later in Changliu Mountain, Yu and Ge Zhang may have had a large-scale battle!" ”
Lan Meizai said unhappily beside her: "You don't become Tianyu, Yu, Yu, that's our ancestor, all talking about our family's ugly things!" ”
Lin Xia was shocked: "What??" Lan Meizai, you... You turned out to be Yu's descendant?! ”
I just remembered that I forgot to tell Lin Xia about Lan Meizi for so long.
This Lin Xia was also so busy all day that he might not have time to think about the origin of Lan Meizai.
I then found the Eight Treasures Copper Bell in the back mountain of Fanjing Mountain, which was discovered by Lan Meizai's grandfather, and then tricked me into going to Tima, and then how he took him to the river to ask, how to be taken to their home. In the end, Lan Meizai's grandfather told me Lan Meizai's TOEFL on his deathbed.
The more Lin Xia listened, the more incredible he felt, in fact, this thing is not complicated for us who grew up in the Wuling Mountains, since the beginning of the centralization of power in the Han Dynasty, until the Qing Dynasty changed the land and returned to the stream, the Tujia, Miao people and some other ethnic minorities have been basically confined to the Wuling Mountains for generations, speaking of ancestors, although the age is long, but the descendants of these ancestors are basically ancestors living here, even if there is a small amount of migration, returning to the origin of Shuo is not as complicated as the Central Plains.
The next day, we continued along the river, because of the bronze weapons found last night, we kept a close eye on both sides of the river to see if there were any new discoveries.
But no useful clues were found along the way. I speculate that the weapons found in the mud may have been washed up in the river bay after one or several Ba soldiers were killed in battle, just one year when there was a big flood, and the bones were long gone, and only these bronze weapons remained.
