A few days after the end of the year, Chu Wei's parents left because of work, and there were only two people left in the huge house, Chu Wei and Yansheng.

"It's so boring~" Yan Sheng slumped on the leather sofa in the living room, tossing an orange back and forth. Chu Wei sat on the other side, holding a kindle and reading.

Yan Sheng kept calling, and Chu Wei didn't look up.

"Yansheng, you take me for a walk in Xiang'an, I have nothing to do, I'm going to be idle. The past few days have passed, and there are people on the street, so it must be very lively! ”

"Well, where do you want to go?"

"Xiang'an is so big, I'm here for the first time, do you have any recommendations." Hearing Chu Wei speak, Yan Sheng suddenly came to his senses, and a carp sat up straight.

"Museums, parks, Xiang'an University, shopping plazas," Chu Wei said as he flipped the pages, "where do you want to go." ”

Yan Sheng put the orange in his hand back into the fruit bowl and thought about it in his mind for a while, "We still have a month to leave school, anyway, there is so much time, let's go shopping one a day." ”

"Yes, yes. And what about today? ”

"Today, well... Let's go to the nearest home today, it's going to be noon. Yan Sheng looked at his watch, it was almost twelve o'clock.

"The closest thing to home is the museum."

Chu Wei's home is in the villa area, far away from the city center, and there is only a museum in addition to a shopping mall that is a little closer, and you have to cross most of the city to go to Xiang'an University.

It's time to eat, Chu Wei warmed up a few meatballs made by his mother before leaving, fried two dishes casually, and Yan Sheng was full of praise for eating.

After the New Year, the weather is gradually getting warmer, and there are very few people wearing padded jackets and down jackets on the street. Chu Wei was wearing a dark brown tweed coat with a pair of leather boots of the same color, his hair was combed to reveal a white forehead, and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses hung on the bridge of his straight nose. didn't go out for a few days, Yan Sheng also changed into neat clothes, a turtleneck sweater under a black fleece denim jacket, and his pants were tied in black Martin boots to look thin and long, and he was full of vitality.

The two of them walked on the road, one article and one martial arts, and the movement was very eye-catching, attracting passers-by to look sideways, and a few little girls hesitated to ask for a contact information, but the two of them walked too fast with too long legs, and they didn't catch up, so they could only watch them go away and stomp their feet secretly.

There are many cultural relics in the Xiang'an City Museum that belong to the national first-class protection, so even after the New Year, there are a bunch of tourists inside. Yan Sheng followed behind Chu Wei and lined up to receive free tickets.

The museum is very large and rich in content, and Yan Sheng is dazzled by it, and from time to time he goes to make up for the explanation of the tour group next to him.

Yan Sheng watched one by one, moving slowly with the crowd, and Chu Wei walked side by side with him.

When he walked up to a row of stone figurines, a strangely shaped figurine inside caught his attention.

It was a female figurine lying on her side, her hair loose and not combed like the other figurines. The stone figurine's chest is bulging, and it can be seen that it is a very plump woman. She supported her head with one hand and put the other hand in front of her crotch casually, but when she looked down, what appeared under the skirt was not a pair of feet, but a tail, which was one foot long from the hem of the skirt.

"Hammer, look," Yan Sheng pulled Chu Wei over and pointed to this row of stone figurines, "You see if they look like they, well, how to say it, figures, yes, figures." ”

Chu Wei was speechless and said, "...... It's a relic. ”

"Hahahaha, I'm kidding you, my analogy is quite appropriate."

Chu Wei said coldly: "Boring."

"Oh, I really have a problem, really", Yan Sheng turned Chu Wei, who was about to leave, "Look at the female stone figurine in the middle, does it look very strange." ”

"Hmm," Chu Wei took a closer look.

"She looks different from other stone figurines, the stone figurines next to her are all in a half-kneeling position, she is in a semi-recumbent position, you see she has no feet, only a tail."

"Well, she's Nuwa."

"Are you sure? Nu wa? How do you know?" Yan Sheng looked at Chu Wei with a skeptical expression.

Chu Wei pointed to a small sign next to him with his chin, "Well, look at that." ”

Yan Sheng leaned over and looked, hey, really, no wonder that strange stone figurine had a tail.

The sign said that these stone figurines were unearthed in the tomb of a woman in the people, and the figurines in the middle were Nuwa, and next to them were believers who worshiped Nuwa very much. They aspire to have the high status of women in matrilineal societies and their strong reproductive abilities.

Reading the last sentence, a memory flashed through Yan Sheng's mind.

A human-like creature was in labor, and she writhed in exaggerating pain, sweat drenching her hair, and at last, a little baby's cry put an end to the memory.

Yan Sheng could not remember where this memory came from, nor was he sure if it was his dream. Chu Wei is too, there is such a picture in the depths of his memory, but he can't find the source, it's like he was inserted into it.

At this time, if you ask who Zhao Yi is, they will definitely have no sporadic memories. I don't know when their memories of Zhao Yi are fading without a little feeling, until they disappear. In their minds, some memories of what they experienced with Zhao Yi were erased, and only some abrupt and inexplicable fragments remained.

Yan Sheng took pictures of these figurines with his mobile phone, and continued to walk forward with Chu Wei to look at them.

"Then please look at the stone figurines here, these stone figurines are from the tomb of the Ming Dynasty, and the identity of the owner of the tomb has not yet been determined. You look at the figurine in the middle, the body of the human head and the snake, the pattern of the costume and the softness of the carved lines, all of which show that this woman has a very high status. ”

Behind him, a tour group walked in front of the row of stone figurines, and the tour guide was explaining to the tourists. Chu Wei and Yansheng walked very slowly, listening to the tour guide.

"Then many people must have guessed that in Chinese history, the woman with a human head and a snake body and worshiped by people is the mythical and legendary fairy Nuwa. The status of women in the Ming Dynasty was very low, and Nuwa had a high status in a matriarchal society and a powerful ability to reproduce, and the stone figurines half-kneeling next to her reflect the worship of these people. So there is also a speculation that the identity of the owner of the tomb may have been a woman with a little social status. Okay, everybody, let's move on. The tour guide waved a small flag, and some tourists were fascinated by the listen.

It was already four or five o'clock when the two of them finished visiting the museum, and it was about to close.

Yan Sheng's stomach screamed uncontrollably, "Hammer, let's eat something, we're hungry." ”

"Okay."

Chu Wei took Yansheng to a nearby inconspicuous restaurant and ordered a plate of mapo tofu and a fish-flavored shredded pork.

The shop was too small, with only five tables in total, all of them looking weathered and shabby, and the stools were wobbly when they sat up, and Yan Sheng suspected that the store might be closing down and he couldn't even afford new tables and chairs. However, after the dish is served, it is really fragrant, and the authentic Sichuan flavor must be known by the locals.

Yan Sheng was eating and pulling some photos he had just taken at the museum.

"Eat well and don't look at your phone.".

"Oh."
