Chapter 186: Fu Xi, Gu God
It's an indescribable feeling, it's like stepping into another world all at once.
At this time, the few of us were no longer under the water, and there was not even a drop of water in the whole area, even under our feet.
Is it coming out? Is this shore? My first reaction was this. Turning around and looking back at the stone door behind him, it was still open, and he could even see the river flowing slowly outside the door, and there was a rattling sound.
It's still at the bottom of the river! I wondered to myself. But why did the surrounding environment suddenly change after taking these few steps and stepping through this door?
"Maybe this is the entrance to Dayu's tomb!"
Uncle Shi said slowly.
In fact, I should have thought that Dayu's tomb would definitely be in a special place, and it would be protected in a special way, otherwise wouldn't it have been discovered for thousands of years?
"Ahh Xiao Li suddenly exclaimed, and she realized that she could speak.
"What the hell was going on? We...... How could we ...... What is this place? ”
"Didn't I let you come along? Didn't hear what Uncle Shi said? This is the tomb of Dayu! ”
Zhang Kailong reprimanded a few words in a low voice.
Xiao Li has always been in awe of Zhang Kailong, and he calls him "Brother Long" like me, but Actual Mountain has always regarded him as half an elder.
I also learned later that Xiao Li's father was a military-level leader and Zhang Kailong's old chief, and he arranged Xiao Li by Zhang Kailong's side in order to train his girl and polish her squeamishness.
Xiao Li stuck out his tongue and barely squeezed out a few smiles.
I could tell that he was deliberately pretending to be calm, and his face had turned yellow, perhaps because he was nervous, or maybe he didn't know how to be watery.
It was only then that I noticed my surroundings, which must have been inside the small peak, which looked like it was in a temple. Right! It is a temple, which is somewhat similar to the broken temple in the western suburbs of the old temple village, but it is obviously wider here.
Although the traces of artificial transformation are very obvious, even Xiao Li can see that this is only the entrance to the cave, and theoretically the things that are serious are still in the depths of this cave.
If it comes, it will break through.
This is one of the mottos of my Chen Xiaozhen ten years later, and I have to say that there is this motto, which is related to the experience of this strange cave under the Yellow River that day.
"Captain Zhang, take out the things!"
Uncle Shi said while patting the water on the waterproof bag.
We were all carrying a large bag, only Zhang Kailong had two bags on him, he put the smaller one on the ground, and then pulled out several pieces of clothing from it.
Change of clothes? Looking at the wet clothes on several people, I wondered.
Although it is uncomfortable to wear wet clothes, in this environment, it is doing this kind of thing, and what are you so particular about!
Zhang Kailong threw us a piece of clothing by himself, and after I took it, I shook it and saw that it was a blue-gray robe, the same as the clothes he wore when I first met my senior brother.
This is a robe! It dawned on me.
Look at the clothes that Li Xiaobai and Chen Laosan got are all Taoist robes, the style is the same, but the color is different.
"If you want to enter the tomb of Dayu alive, you must change into this clothes, otherwise...... Hmph......"
Uncle Shi snorted coldly halfway through his words, his voice gloomy and powerful.
I couldn't help but feel numb in my scalp, realizing that the place we were about to arrive at must be very dangerous, no wonder before going down the river, Zhang Kailong persuaded Xiao Li to go back, saying that this time it was nine deaths!
Nine deaths and one life, I'm afraid it must not be an exaggeration!
"Put on this dress? Why ......"
Xiao Li seemed to be very resistant to the white clothes in her hand, and cautiously put them in front of her nose and sniffed them, and then frowned.
"You girl! I still specially prepared this white one for you, which is similar to the work clothes you usually wear! ”
Zhang Kailong reprimanded in a low voice.
"This style...... The key is that you smell it...... Smells bad! ”
I also smelled a strange smell on the robe, a little pungent.
"Humph!" Chen Laosan, who had not spoken, suddenly spoke, "Smelly? You know that for these clothes, my grandson and I haven't closed our eyes for three days and three nights, if you don't want to be eaten by the insects inside, just wear her obediently. ”
Chen Laosan's words are very casual, but they are very explosive!
Bugger? After hearing this, my whole body trembled, and I wanted to put on this robe quickly, but my uncle stretched out his hand and grabbed it.
Xiao Li was also frightened and stared at Chen Laosan blankly.
"These robes are smoked by us with special aromatherapy, this is the unique formula of our Yellow River Taoism, the clothes on your body are already wet, wearing them like this, it will affect the efficacy of the medicine!"
"What then?"
"There are two ways, either wait for the clothes on your body to dry out, or ...... Or take it off"
Uncle Shi said slowly.
I think anyone with an intelligence level over ten years old can understand that Uncle Shi's so-called two methods are actually just one, in this environment, how can it be possible to wait at least seven or eight hours, waiting for the clothes to be dried by body temperature!
No wonder Zhang Kailong has been trying to persuade Xiao Li to go back! I think there are other considerations in addition to security.
Because the roof of the cave can cast light, the light in the cave is only a little dim, and each other's facial features can still be clearly seen within ten meters and eight meters. We don't know the situation in this cave, maybe there is something dangerous hidden in some dark corner, so we don't dare to let Xiao Li stay away from a few gentlemen to change clothes.
What to do? Let's be realised!
The five of us men turned their backs to Xiao Li towards one side of the wall, and she also turned her back to us towards the other side of the wall, Uncle Shi, they had already changed into Taoist robes in less than a minute, and I deliberately slowed down, so as not to feel embarrassed when Xiao Li heard that we had all changed. I could hear the sound of Xiao Li undressing and getting dressed behind me.
No matter when and where, the sound of a woman undressing is always so loud in your ears, especially when you can only hear it, but you can't see it, your mind is inevitably mixed with infinite reverie.
"I'm alright!"
Xiao Li shouted shyly.
I looked back, and although I was ready, my eyes lit up.
Xiao Li is tall, with white skin and big eyes, such a very ordinary robe, wearing it on her, has a bit of fairy temperament, especially when he doesn't wear other clothes inside, the S-shaped perfect figure is undoubtedly displayed, but it's just ...... It's just that......
When I looked at it a second time, I instantly blushed with shame.
Maybe Xiao Li was stunned by Chen Laosan's words just now, although she is a forensic doctor, she is also extremely afraid of small insects, and heard Chen Laosan say that there is water on her clothes, so she took off all her clothes, and then put on this robe that is not enough to wrap herself tightly.
"Xiao Zhen, why is your face suddenly red?"
As soon as she asked, she seemed to understand something, let out an "ah", and then quickly wrapped her clothes.
The reason why I glanced at it was because of the conditioned reflex of a normal young man, and in the circumstances at that time, I knew that there was a lot of danger ahead, so how could I have the heart to think twice.
A few of us simply threw the wet clothes aside, perhaps Xiao Li felt embarrassed, especially his own personal belongings, so he stuffed his underwear into the backpack.
Unexpectedly, later, her underwear saved the lives of all of us. This is an afterword, so let's not talk about it for the time being.
After changing our clothes, we started walking towards the cave.
It stands to reason that this cave is located under the water of the Yellow River, and the sound of the river gushing can still be clearly heard on the top of the cave.
There were faintly recognizable dark lines on the walls of the cave, and I glanced at them casually, as if it was a description of a group of primitive people hunting.
Based on my previous experience, I thought that this time I would have to walk for a long time to see the main master, but just after a few corners, a hall the size of a football field appeared in front of us.
At a glance, I saw three statues standing on the opposite platform of the hall, about four or five meters high in the middle, and about three meters high on both sides.
As soon as he saw these three sculptures, Chen Laosan was amazed, and then quickly knelt down.
I recognize the huge sculpture in the middle!
This is the third time I have seen it, the first time is to sneak into Aunt Li's inner room with Wang Er, and see it under the water tank of pickled vegetables (there was only one metal head at the time), and the second time is in the cave in the cemetery in the western suburbs of Xiaohe Village (the broken clay sculpture), which is exactly what Chen Laosan has become a Gu God sculpture.
This strange face is enough to make people unforgettable!
Chen Laosan kowtowed three heads, slowly stood up, and said sharply: "Don't you think it's strange? This Gu god should be the god believed in by the old Miao people of Xiangxi, Yunnan, Qinghai, and Ningxia! How did it end up here...... This is the tomb of Dayu......"
We understood his words in a few seconds.
In ancient times, especially before the Han Dynasty, due to the influence of transportation, the beliefs of the people in this land of China varied, especially before Buddhism spread to Middle-earth.
At that time, people mostly believed in witchcraft, and the so-called gods were also different, among which the ancient Miao people believed in Gu gods, but other ethnic groups or tribes did not know what this so-called Gu God was.
The land of Hekou has been a legitimate Central Plains region since ancient times, how could such a huge statue of a Gu god stand?
Dayu has always been known as one of the ancestors of Chinese civilization, the so-called Chinese civilization actually refers to the Han people, not including the Miao people.
Looking at the decoration of these three gods, this Gu god is still the main owner of this hall.
Looking at the two statues on both sides, I am also very familiar with the one on the left, it is Nuwa. This statue of Nuwa is exactly the same as the one we saw in the big banyan tree before (maybe a little shorter).
Such a huge sculpture must not be mass-produced, how can there be two statues that are almost identical? I couldn't help but admire in my heart. It can only be said that the smelting level of this forger has reached the level of divine skill.
Looking at the other side of the Gu God statue, it was a big-headed man with eyes like copper bells and ears to attract wind. The nose is facing the sky, the mouth is a little exaggerated, and it looks weird, not like a Han people.
What surprised me even more was that this person, like Nuwa, was also a human with the upper body and a snake with the lower body.
"It's ...... This is...... Fuxi! ”
Uncle Shi exclaimed.
Uncle Shi said: Like Nuwa, Fuxi is also the ancestor of the Chinese nation, one of the three emperors, and the god of Fuyou Sheji. Legend has it that he and Nuwa were brother and sister, but later became husband and wife, and had children together, and he invented divination gossip and created writing according to the changes in heaven and earth......
"The third! Something is wrong! Nuwa and Fuxi are considered to be extremely high-level gods, but looking at the seat position, this is ...... This Gu God seems to be even more noble than them......"
In our country, even today, you can see the dignity of the young and the old from the seat, and when eating and gathering, the main guest, the deputy guest, the main escort, and even the "left is the top, the right is the bottom" has become one of the necessary common sense of people who often participate in the communicators.
In ancient times, this aspect was even more important.
A few years ago, I listened to the commentary "Water Margin" at the entrance of Laomiao Village, and the high and low seats were very clear, Song Jiang sat in the middle, his right hand side was the military advisor Wu Yong, and the left hand side was Sun Sheng, the dragon Gongsun Sheng, one hundred singles and eight generals had their own fixed seats, and they must not sit randomly.
According to this seating method, the Gu God in the center has the highest status, followed by Fu Xi.
I was looking at me in a trance, Xiao Li suddenly exclaimed, and then grabbed my arm with both hands.
"Xiao Zhen, look! Why is there still a you there! ”
What the? I was busy looking for prestige, and then I saw a dozen people standing on each side of the hall, these people had their own postures, some lowered their heads, some looked to one side, and some bent over, and one of them pinched his waist and looked exactly like me!
No way! I chuckled in my heart, and thought suspiciously, "Could it be that I, Chen Xiaozhen, still have a twin brother?" Impossible! If there was, Grandma would have told me a long time ago......
On second thought, no! This is the bottom of the river, which is dozens of meters below the surface of the river, how can there be people? And so much more!
