The next day, we packed up and stopped, and more than 20 of us in five cars began to search all the way along the east of Liye in accordance with the set plan, and on this day we entered the territory of Songtao, Guizhou. Guizhou is the only province in the country that does not have the support of the plains, and has been one of the most backward provinces in the last century, although it is close to the 21st century, there are still a small number of remote mountain villages that have not even been connected to electricity.

Professor Wen and Lin Xia are a little unprepared for this kind of mountainous pothole-ridden mountain road, I don't know how many times I vomited along the way, although we grew up in the mountains said that it was okay, but it was also shaken to the ground, because the place that needs to be walked is mostly high mountains, I took the compass to lead the way in front of the car, seeing that the mountains are getting steeper and steeper, the sky is gradually getting darker, and the surrounding is full of barren mountains and mountains, I stopped all the vehicles, and Lin Xia, Professor Wen discussed, it seems that I can only stay in the wilderness tonight.

Lin Xia had already had this intention, and the drive almost didn't stop today, and she and Professor Wen couldn't hold on a little for a long time. And the weather is still good today, so camping is not a crime. Unexpectedly, just stopped the car, in the distance came a head wrapped in Qingpa, hanging a sickle on the waist, leading the Miao people of the buffalo, it turned out that there was a Miao village not far in front of it, we were very happy, the Miao people were famous for their hospitality, and the people of that era were also simple, unlike some villages with Miao Village gimmicks now, all of them were inns and hotels opened by outsiders, and Miao people invited us to stay in Miao Village.

As soon as they heard that this place was not far from Miao Village, the group did not want to take the car anymore, and they all followed Miao Min's walk, leaving only a few drivers to slowly drive the car into the school playground in the village. At that time, there were very few cars in the village, and most of them drove to the county once a year and a half to inspect the work, and for a time the village was full of Miao people who came to see the excitement.

In Guizhou, Wu, Luo, Li, Yang, Pan, Wang, and Lei are almost all Han surnames, and almost all of the people in this village are surnamed Luo, and the Miao people who took us into the village are called Luo Kaichun, we walked across the wind and rain bridge together, only to see this Miao village by the mountain and water, built along the mountain, it looks spectacular from a distance, Luo Kaichun insisted on taking us to see the village chief.

What's interesting is the roadblock wine, just across the bridge, a few beautiful Miao girls stopped us, smiled and raised the horn glass to let us drink, this is actually similar to the current tourist attractions, but at that time the drink was Miao people's own wine, the degree is not high, Tuesday Mao drank and drank and wanted to lean on people, I hurriedly pulled this bastard, for fear of making a little mess.

The people in the mountains are hospitable, but they are fierce, I don't know if you have seen it or not, we often saw it when we were children, a village and another village fought and fought, usually the whole village men went into battle, the old and the young and the young and the water of the long ** gun, the waist hung a sharp sickle, the most awesome one, the earth cannon was carried out, this kind of thing, until the beginning of the world young people went out to work more and more, only to see less.

The village chief's name is Luo Erhua, and at first we thought it was a female village chief.

Luo Kaichun shouted twice at the door of the village chief's house, "Uncle cousin, Uncle cousin." There's a guest from outside the country. ”

After a while, the wooden door creaked open, and everyone didn't expect that this Comrade Erhua turned out to be a sturdy Miao man in his fifties.

The village chief of Erhua held a cigarette stick in his hand, pulled our hands with a smile on his face and said, "Rare guests, rare guests, everyone come in and sit." ”

At that time, the living conditions were very ordinary, and the Erhua village chief's family was not much stronger, but at that time, the rural houses and houses were large, and there were halls in the house, and more than 20 of us sat down and were not stuffed, and the Erhua village chief warmly greeted a few young men and girls below and began to prepare dinner for us, and the whole village came in the evening, and then it was to drink wine and eat meat.

The village chief of Erhua took out the good wine treasured at home and the wild boar meat that was turned into bacon from the kang. How many years have passed, and I still remember the scene when the village chief of Erhua drank wine and ate pork trotters. It is more appropriate to use Ermao's words, that day Ermao was drunk, and he fell on the cruise ship in the West Lake and said that, I was too impressed, I should say that I also empathize, Ermao said with drunken eyes that day: "Erwa, do you know, as long as you think of the appearance of the Erhua village chief in Tongren in 99 years who ate pig's trotters and drank wine, Lao Tzu was full of food, and he felt hungry in his belly." ”

At that time, the countryside was not rich, the pig was killed during the New Year, and the game was not eaten every day, and it was generally eaten by people and visitors, and at that time there was no refrigerator in the mountains, and fresh meat was bought only in the market, so Yunguichuan made the meat into bacon, hung it in front of the stove, smoked and roasted, and cut off a piece to fry a plate of delicious dishes when needed.

I don't know what time it was after dinner, anyway, I was drunk that day, and I didn't know who carried me and Ermao to the guest room of Erhua Village Chief's house. In the middle of the night, I woke up drunk, my mouth was dry, and I remembered to smoke a cigarette and find a glass of water. Staggered out of the room.

At this time, there was already silence outside the house, and the hall was empty, and it was estimated that they were all scattered to the homes of various villagers to rest. I lit a cigarette, the temperature difference between day and night in the mountains is large, at this time I was thinly dressed, I have felt a chill, but my head is swollen badly, I didn't turn over a water cup in the hall for a long time, so I ran to the water pipe in the yard to drink tap water, after drinking the water, I finally felt a little relieved, there was just a bamboo bed in the courtyard, I fell on the bamboo bed, although the cold bamboo bed was a little cold, but people were sober a lot, I smoked leisurely, looked at the starry sky, and was thinking about the life in the mountains and moisturizing, Suddenly, a meteor flashed in front of me, and I found that Tianshu, Tianxuan, Tianji, Tianquan, Yuheng, Kaiyang, and the Seven Stars of the Shaking Light Big Dipper were hanging high, swaggering as a fight, facing the Ziwei Zhonggong Tianji Star, which was transported in the center, and compared with the Mingtang map of "Di Jun Kanyu Jue": In the mid-autumn month, the Son of Heaven lived in the Zongzhang Temple. Based on the current month, could it be that near our location there is a mountain marked on the sheepskin map? ”

On the second day, I woke up the village chief of Erhua early in the morning, the village chief of Erhua drank a little too much yesterday, and at this time he was still half asleep, seeing that I was a little anxious, he led me to the fire pit in the hall and sat down, and asked: "What are you doing, say slowly, don't be in a hurry." ”

I said, "Village Chief, we are here to do some geological research, and when I entered the village yesterday, I found that the mountains on your side are strange, I don't know if there are any strange things in ancient times?" ”

The village chief of Erhua smiled "hey". Said: "You little baby, Lao Tzu thinks it's a big deal, do you want to hear me put the ancient things for you (talking about the ancient times), I will tell you about this matter, I know the things of the ten miles and eight towns very well." What do you want to hear? ”

I said, "I want to hear all the strange things of the old days." ”

The village chief of Erhua has a strong interest in local old things, so he asked his wife to make us a pot of tea, and I gave him a cigarette, and the two began to talk. Soon on Tuesday, Mao joined in.

The head of Erhua Village said: "Our village was not called Hongqi Village before, our ancestors were called "Ganu Village" for generations, and outsiders called us Gaopo Miao, which is what they outsiders said, "Gaopo Miao, Shui Dong family, and the guy live in Shiyi". Legend has it that the ancestors of the old man moved from the side of the Yellow River, I don't know about this, anyway, when I first came here, I ate some wild mushrooms and wild fruits, vegetable roots, "frogs, birds and beasts survived, and then slowly developed, the so-called "Si sow Tian Yang, two Guang Cen Huang", our side of the Tusi has been Tian at that time, managed for more than 800 years, and then the Han people under the mountain came, the Ming Dynasty Yongle fought a battle, put... ”

I was busy stopping the words of the village chief of Erhua, and this time I jumped to the Ming Dynasty, and I asked, "Is there any history about the Qin Dynasty?" ”

"You little baby, anxious JB, listen to me a little bit" Erhua Village Chief spit out the smoke ring dissatisfiedly and said: "When the Qing Dynasty...

I hurriedly said, it's not the Qing Dynasty, it's the Qin Dynasty.

The village chief of Erhua looked at me a little confused and said, "What kind of JB dynasty is the Qin Dynasty?"

I hurriedly said, "Qin Shi Huang, build the Great Wall." ”

The village chief of Erhua suddenly realized: "Oh! Qin Shi Huang, Lao Tzu knows, Qin Emperor Han Wu, slightly lost his literary talent. Isn't it? "The people of Erhua Village Chief's era had a deep understanding of Chairman Mao's poems, and they came as soon as they opened their mouths.

I smiled and nodded, "That's the dynasty." ”

The village chief of Erhua thought for a long time, shook his head helplessly, and said: "I really don't know what the matter of Qin Shihuang has to do with our side. ”
