Chapter 15: The Lakeside Cultivator
1
The dawn broke in the east, the warm sun was still sprinkled on the sea, and also sprinkled on the faces of Tang Feng, Han Jiang, Makarov and Liang Yuan, the four of them all experienced a difficult night, Tang Feng woke up, and found that Liang Yuan next to him was still unconscious, and couldn't help but feel sad in his heart, Liang Yuan was already sick, and after such a toss, it seems that Liang Yuan is more than lucky, Tang Feng saw Han Jiang and Makarov also woke up, and shouted at them: "Do you have a way to get this rope open?" ”
There was no need for Tang Feng to ask, Han Jiang and Makarov were already there with force, trying to break free from the rope on their bodies, but the more they broke free, the tighter the rope on their bodies became, and their arms hurt.
"Don't try in vain, no matter how strong you are, you can't break free from this rope." A familiar voice came from the distance, and everyone looked at it, and the person who came was the elder who had tied them up yesterday, as well as those big men.
The elder continued: "This kind of rope is made of the bark of a kind of sacred tree on the nearby mountain, the production process is extremely complicated, completely by hand, first cut off the bark of the sacred tree, washed, remove impurities, and then dried, cut into thin strips, and then soaked in this seven-colored brocade sea, fished up, braided together, exposed to the sun for seven hundred and forty-nine days, after being made, it is also sprayed with potion, therefore, this kind of rope is extremely strong, even if it is cut with the sharpest knife, it may not be possible to cut it at once, so, no matter how hard you try, All in vain. ”
"The Sacred Tree? …… Let us go! Han Jiang glared angrily.
"You don't have to worry, I'll let you go, but you have to be patient for a while."
"You're going to let us go?" Tang Feng seemed to see hope.
The elder no longer answered Tang Feng's question, he walked to the four soil pits dug yesterday, and read something, Tang Feng stared at this scene with a pair of bloodshot eyes, what is this for? After reciting the sutra yesterday, I came back to recite it again today! He suddenly remembered the elder just now, will he let us go? Have you to endure a little longer? This...... What does that mean? Tang Feng's brain went blank, his ears were buzzing, he felt like he was about to collapse, his eyes widened suddenly, and his pupils dilated rapidly...... Because he thought of it - let us go? Patience for a moment? This - this is about to bury us alive! It seems that he was not eaten by a wolf last night, and this knife is still indispensable today, Tang Feng stared at the old man's mouth, that mouth was still chanting words, chattering, he felt that what came out of that mouth was Tang Seng's mantra, and he couldn't bear it anymore...... But Tang Feng listened and listened, and slowly heard something famous, he closed his eyes and listened carefully to the mantra recited by the elder, and suddenly, he realized something......
At this time, Han Jiangchong, who could no longer bear it, roared: "If we want to be buried alive, let's hurry up, don't read it anymore!" ”
The elder ignored Han Jiang and continued to go his own way, Tang Feng heard Han Jiang's roar, opened his eyes suddenly, and shouted at Han Jiang: "No! He didn't want to bury us alive. ”
"And what is he doing here?"
"In exorcism, if I heard me correctly, he recited several ancient Western Xia mantras "Seeing Shun Ghosts", "Demon Breaking Words" and "Hundred Character Mantras Reciting Shun Yao Words"! They treated us as ghosts, and according to the old customs of Western Xia, when they exorcised ghosts, they dug a pit in the ground and recited incantations on the edge of the pit, and the ghosts were sent into the pit, so that the disaster could be eliminated......"
When Tang Feng said this, the old man who was chanting something by the pit suddenly stopped, turned around and walked a few steps, rushed to Tang Feng, grabbed Tang Feng's chest, stared at him, and asked, "Who are you?" ”
"I have to ask you, who are you?" Tang Feng also stared at the elder without showing weakness.
The elder slowly let go of Tang Feng and asked sharply, "How do you know so much?" ”
"Looks like I'm right!" Tang Feng held his head high, and couldn't help but feel a little proud.
"Not bad! You're right, since yesterday when you broke into the Seven-Colored Sea, we have regarded you as devils, so we have dug a pit here and recited incantations to exorcise demons! How much more do you know? ”
"I still know...... If I'm not mistaken, yesterday's pair of men and women who committed suicide by jumping off the cliff were martyred and died, and instead of being sad, you danced and drank, which is also an old custom in Western Xia, in the history of Western Xia, party men and women eloped and died of martyrdom, and instead of crying, the party people had to beat drums, dance, and drink at the funeral of the deceased. ”
"I don't know what Xixia is, what party item, but you're right! Our people here have been like this since ancient times, the joy of men and women, there is no need to mourn, they have just ascended to heaven, what is there to cry about! Tell me what you know, young man, and I'll see what you know about us. ”
"I don't know much, although you arrested us yesterday, you didn't want our lives, but these pits you dug frightened us, hurry up and untie us, we still have a patient here." Tang Feng said.
The elder looked at Liang Yuan, who was unconscious, and sneered at Tang Feng twice, and said, "Young man, you know enough, but there is one thing you said wrong!" We're digging a pit here to exorcise demons, not to bury you alive, but that doesn't mean I don't want your lives! ”
2
"What? You still want to kill us? Tang Feng shuddered.
"Nope! No! No! You are wrong, I am not here to kill you, I will not kill you, I tied you up here last night, just to let the wolves here, and the eagles in the sky, taste your taste, if the four of you become wolves, or eagle food, then I have not dug these pits in vain. ”
"You're saying to bury our bones in these pits from wolves and eagles." Thinking of this, Tang Feng shuddered.
"Yes, I thought I would come early this morning and see the pile of bones left over from your wolf eating."
"And we've let you down?"
"You have disappointed me, you are still alive, what a devil who does not eat eagles and wolves! Even wolves and eagles don't dare come near you, so I just recited the exorcism spell again. ”
"What's the use of exorcism spells! What are you going to do with us? Tang Feng asked the elder.
"You are devils who neither wolves nor eagles dare to approach, I have no right to decide your fate, I will take you to meet a person, and your fate will be decided by this person!"
"Who?" Tang Feng and Han Jiang asked at the same time.
"Great Lama! We are the supreme wise man here. After speaking, the elder instructed the big men to untie the four of them off the tree and escort them towards the seven-colored Jinhai.
Everyone walked upstream along the seven-colored Jinhai, and they passed by the village next to the inlet, and the locals in the village looked at Tang Feng and them like monsters.
Tang Feng originally thought that the residence of the great lama should not be far from the village, but when he walked out of the village, he found that he continued to go upstream along the sea, all of which were rugged mountain roads, he and Han Jiang took turns carrying Liang Yuan on their backs, walking on this cliff, walking out for half an hour, everyone was already out of breath, and the old man was tired enough, so everyone stopped to rest, Tang Feng stood on the edge of the cliff, overlooking the seven-colored Jinhai at his feet, still quiet and beautiful, and the mountains in the distance were even more magnificent.
Tang Feng gasped and turned back to ask the elder, "How far do we have to go?" ”
"Don't ask, just follow me."
After resting for a while, everyone went on the road again, the road under their feet, gradually left the cliff by the sea, Tang Feng felt that they were walking towards the mountain, sure enough, after they crossed the two mountain beams, they could not see the beautiful seven-colored Jinhai at all, surrounded by layers of layers, boundless black forest, the elder reminded them: "You must follow closely, don't fall behind, and don't try to escape from here, for hundreds of years, almost all the people who strayed into this big forest were lost in it and never came out." ”
Tang Feng looked around from time to time, the primeval forest of Hesse made him shudder and run away? He didn't think about it at all! The elder walked in front and led everyone to turn another corner, Tang Feng was surprised to find that a gravel road appeared on the ground, and they also walked out of the forest, he saw Haizi again, this gravel road has been leading to the seven-colored brocade seaside, as far as the eye can see, at the end, on the cliff by the seven-colored brocade sea, a delicate wooden house appeared in front of everyone.
"What a quiet hut where the Great Lama is practicing?" Tang Feng asked the elder.
The elder didn't answer, but Han Jiang continued: "What a lakeside cultivator, practicing in such a beautiful and secluded place, he must be a master, I want to meet this worldly master." ”
"Hmmm! It's amazing indeed, have you noticed? Haizi seems to have made a turn here, standing here, you can no longer see Haizi downstream. After Makarov's reminder, Tang Feng and Han Jiang also walked to the edge of the cliff to watch, and sure enough, their location was the bend of Haizi, from here you can't see the downstream Haizi, and when you look upstream, you can't see where the upstream Haizi comes from, but there is a different scenery here.
They came to the front of the wooden house, the wooden house looks quite spacious, built on the cliff by the sea, however, the cliff here is not very high, more than 30 meters from the water, behind the wooden house, there are continuous mountains, standing on the platform in front of the wooden house and looking out, as far as the eye can see, it is all lush and green.
"It's so beautiful! - "Tang Feng felt that he had completely immersed himself in the ink painting, the mountains and water, at this moment, he was so close to him, and all the beautiful scenery was within reach.
"Shh The elder made a silent gesture to interrupt Tang Feng's exclamation, and then whispered to them: "When you see the Great Lama, you must be respectful, and you must completely obey and respect the opinion of the Great Lama, I repeat, your fate is in the hands of the Great Lama." ”
The Grand Lama, who holds our destiny in his hands? Practicing by the lake in this beautiful picture, what kind of great monk is he? Tang Feng thought to himself and walked into the wooden house.
3
In a Buddhist hall in the wooden house, the sun is abundant, a lama in a monk's robe, with his back to everyone, meditating cross-legged in front of the Buddhist shrine, a young girl standing on the side, Tang Feng saw the girl, and was stunned, this ...... Isn't this the girl who mysteriously disappeared from the cliff yesterday morning?
Tang Feng looked at this mysterious girl carefully, the girl was dressed in a white robe, wearing turquoise and red coral on her chest belt, with long black hair, a strange knot on her head, and then naturally hanging behind her, the girl noticed that Tang Feng was looking at her, but she was not the slightest shy, and her eyes flashed, staring at Tang Feng.
Tang Feng always thought that his eyes could penetrate the inner world of others, but at this moment, he was uncomfortable by the girl in front of him, so he had to avoid the girl's eyes.
The lama turned around, and Tang Feng was shocked again, what a big lama! I saw that the lama's face was like water, his hair was white, he was sitting on the couch, his eyes were slightly closed, and he was holding a string of terrifying human bone prayer beads in his hand, as if he was a wise man who had practiced for many years, and the elders who escorted Tang Feng and those few big men saw the lama, all kneeling down on both knees, prostrate on the ground, the lama did not open his eyes, nor did he speak, but gently raised his right hand holding the human bone rosary, and those people stood up, and the elder respectfully said a few words to the great lama in a language that Tang Feng did not understand. Including three pistols, they were placed in front of the great lama together, and then they leaned into the ear of the great lama and whispered a few words. After hearing this, the big lama still closed his eyes slightly, did not speak, did not check everyone's belongings, only nodded slightly, and then waved his hand, and the elder led the big men to retreat.
Inside the Buddha Hall, there was a terrible silence, Tang Feng looked at the big lama in front of him, and then looked back at the door of the Buddha Hall, he didn't know if those people were still outside the door? If it's just this big lama and that girl, maybe ...... Just when Tang Feng was thinking nonsense, the big lama suddenly opened his eyes and stared at the four uninvited guests in front of him, the eyes were not angry and arrogant, dignified and inviolable, Tang Feng secretly wondered in his heart, he couldn't imagine that the old lama who looked like he was dying old had such divine eyes!
The Grand Lama stared at it for a long time, lowered his eyes again, and slowly asked, "Why is that girl unconscious?" ”
The Grand Lama's Mandarin is very standard, with a slight northwest accent, which surprised both Tang Feng and Han Jiang, and Tang Feng hurriedly replied: "She is very sick and needs to be treated immediately, so I beg the Great Lama to let us go and show us the way......"
Tang Feng wanted to continue, but was interrupted by the big lama raising his hand, "Help her to me." ”
The Great Lama's words were short and clear, and there was no doubt about it, Tang Feng had to help Liang Yuan to the front of the Great Lama, the Great Lama looked at the words, rolled Liang Yuan's eyelids again, and instructed the girl standing aside: "Heiyun, bring the herbs I picked back from the mountains last time." ”
After waiting for a while, the girl named "Heiyun" walked in with a bowl of dark green medicinal soup, and a strange fragrance suddenly filled the Buddhist hall, Tang Feng looked at the bowl of dark green medicinal soup, and asked with some doubts: "Can this medicine work?" ”
The Grand Lama did not answer Tang Feng's question, but instructed Tang Feng: "Open her mouth." Tang Feng was busy pinching Liang Yuan's cheeks, trying to pry Liang Yuan's mouth open, but Liang Yuan's teeth were tightly closed, and no matter how hard Tang Feng tried, he couldn't pry Liang Yuan's mouth open. Seeing this, the big lama sighed softly, waved his hand, signaled Tang Feng to dodge, and then saw the big lama put down the string of human bone prayer beads, held the bowl with one hand, opened it lightly with the other, and put it on Liang Yuan's cheeks, and there were words in his mouth, as if he was chanting scriptures, and as if he was talking to someone, but Tang Feng couldn't hear what the big lama said at all, two minutes later, a miracle appeared, no one saw the big lama exert force, Liang Yuan's mouth opened by itself, and the big lama easily poured the bowl of herbs into Liang Yuan.

After feeding Liang Yuan the medicine, the Grand Lama instructed Heiyun again: "Help her to your room, she needs to recuperate." After arranging Liang Yuan, the Grand Lama glanced at Tang Feng, Han Jiang and Makarov again, and said, "You all come here, and I will take care of your injuries." ”
Makarov was the first to go over, and the Grand Lama checked the wound on Makarov's shoulder and gave him a black pill; Then there was Tang Feng, Tang Feng didn't know what force pushed him, he involuntarily walked over, Tang Feng was fine, only felt weak limbs, and there were many abrasions on his body, but because he was tied overnight, there was some bruise on his arm, and there was a faint pain, the big lama was on his arm, and he pushed back and forth twice, he felt a little numb, and then looked down, the bruising disappeared instantly, Tang Feng's eyes widened in surprise, just when he was stunned, the big lama also gave him a black pill, after he swallowed the pill suspiciously, I felt refreshed and full of energy.
In the end, only Han Jiang was left standing still, motionless, and the Grand Lama asked, "Young man, don't you need me to take a look?" ”
"Nope! I don't need to. ”
"And what do you need?"
"I need food, I haven't eaten for days and nights." Han Jiang's serious answer made the great lama let out a dry laugh: "Okay! Good! Black Cloud, hurry up and bring them something to eat. ”
Soon, a sumptuous table was put up, large pieces of yak meat, lamb chops, cured meat, potato glutinous rice, corn cake, gold-wrapped silver rice, barley wine, Han Jiang didn't know how many days he hadn't eaten, anyway, he and Tang Feng, as well as the three of Lao Ma, sat on the ground, a storm swept away, and the table was full of food in ten minutes, and finally, Heiyun served them a bowl of white soup, which tasted extremely delicious, Tang Feng drank it, and asked curiously: "What is this soup made of, it is so delicious?" ”
Heiyun smiled slightly: "There is only one kind of fish in the seven-colored brocade sea, this fish tastes abnormal, it is our specialty here, and this soup is made of that kind of fish." ”
Tang Feng nodded, and asked the girl again: "Are you called 'Black Cloud'?" ”
"Hmmm! Everyone calls me 'Black Cloud'. Black Cloud nodded.
"We saw you yesterday morning." Han Jiang suddenly interjected.
"Yesterday morning? Have you seen me? Black Cloud's sunny face suddenly dimmed.
"Yes, on the cliffs downstream." Han Jiang continued.
"That's right! …… That's me! Black Cloud lowered his head.
"The man and woman who jumped off the cliff must be your relatives, right?"
"How do you know?"
"If it weren't for your loved ones, you wouldn't be so heartbroken and screaming, desperate to run wild on the cliff." Han Jiang stared at the black cloud and said.
"Hmmm! The girl who jumped off the cliff was my sister. "The sound of the black cloud is getting lower and lower.
"Your sister! What a poor girl, ...... at such a young age Did she and the boy commit suicide in martyrdom? Tang Feng asked Heiyun.
Heiyun nodded, "Yes, the elders of our two families don't agree with them being together, so ......"
"What age is this, there is still such a thing!" Han Jiang said angrily.
Han Jiang's anger provoked a dry cough from the great lama, and everyone closed their mouths when they looked at the great lama, and the air in the Buddhist hall suddenly froze.
"Life is fragile!" Tang Feng's sigh broke the awkward atmosphere.
Han Jiang suddenly remembered something, and asked Heiyun again: "Later, we went up to look for you, but we didn't meet you, where did you hide?" ”
"I ......" Heiyun hesitated, and before he could answer, the loud voice of the great lama came: "Since you have all eaten and drunk enough, and there is nothing wrong with your health, now, it is time for me to get to know you." ”

"It's time to get acquainted." Tang Feng was still very vigilant, and without waiting for the big lama to speak, he preemptively said, "What kind of place is this?" Who are you? What right do you have to tie us up? ”
In the face of Tang Feng's series of questions, the Grand Lama was not angry, listened patiently, and then asked rhetorically: "It doesn't matter who we are, it doesn't matter, it was you who broke in and broke our peaceful life, so I have the right to know your situation." ”
The majesty of the Great Lama's words was inviolable, Tang Feng looked at the Great Lama in front of him, glanced at the black cloud next to him, and quickly analyzed the environment they were in, who was the Lama in front of him? Does it have anything to do with the gang that hunted us down? Tang Feng thought about it again, there are only two of them, one old and one young, we are fully capable of escaping now, but ...... I just don't know if those big men are still outside the house?
Tang Feng finally gave up this immature idea, or look at the situation, thinking of this, he replied: "We are just ordinary tourists, we strayed into a cave, and then we came here. ”
"Ordinary tourists? Ordinary tourists will carry guns? Moreover, I think these guns are very good! ”
"I'm a police officer......" Han Jiang hurriedly replied first.
Han Jiang still wanted to argue, but the big lama interrupted him sharply: "Let's be honest, I don't have much time, and you don't have much time!" ”
Tang Feng and Han Jiang glanced at each other, turned their hearts sideways, and decided to let go, so they believed the Great Lama once: "Okay! I'll tell you the truth, we're being hunted down! ”
"Oh! After? ......" The Grand Lama was silent for a long time, the room was surprisingly quiet, and Tang Feng, Han Jiang and Makarov's hearts were uneasy, and they didn't know what would happen next!
The Grand Lama pondered for a long time, and finally spoke, "All right! I have decided to let you go, and when the girl is well, I will send someone to see you out of here, and until then, you will stay with me, and you must not move around casually, but only near the wooden house, and again, after leaving here, do not tell outsiders about everything you see here, and you must remember, otherwise, whether it is you or us, there will be calamity! ”
After listening to the words of the Great Lama, Tang Feng, Han Jiang and Makarov's tense nerves finally relaxed, it seems that the Great Lama is not harmless, but the words of the Great Lama made the three of them a little disappointed, Tang Feng couldn't hold back and asked loudly: "Why don't you ask, why don't you ask why we are being hunted down?" Who is hunting down? ”
The Grand Lama closed his eyes, shook his head, and said, "Cultivators, you have already seen through the red world, why are you being hunted down?" Hunted down by whom? What do you have to do with me! ”
"Weren't you still interested in us?" Han Jiang asked rhetorically.
"I just need your truth, and since you tell the truth, I don't have to ask again." The Grand Lama explained calmly.
"Okay, you don't ask us, we still want to ask you, who are you?" Han Jiang continued to ask.
"I will not say a word about what you should not know; You know, I've already said that. After the Grand Lama finished speaking, he began to read the scriptures aloud, ignoring the three of them.
Tang Feng and the three of them stood in the Buddha hall in a daze, not knowing what to do, at this time, Heiyun came over and said to the three of them: "You come with me, I will arrange a room for you." ”
The three of them looked at the black clouds and then at the great lama, and had to reluctantly withdraw from the Buddhist hall, but when they reached the door, the great lama suddenly stopped them again.
6
"Wait a minute, I have one more thing to ask you." The summoning of the Great Lama made Tang Feng's hearts tremble, and what did the Great Lama remember? The three of them returned to the Buddha hall and anxiously awaited the Grand Lama's inquiry.
The Grand Lama still lowered his eyes and asked unhurriedly, "You are in the cave and have entered that pillar hall?" ”
The three of you, look at me, I look at you, I don't know what the great lama is asking, how to answer, no one knows what kind of punishment will come if they answer wrong! Han Jiang pushed Tang Feng and pushed Tang Feng in front of the great lama, Tang Feng was unsteady on his feet, almost slipped, provoked the black clouds behind him, covered his mouth and laughed secretly, Tang Feng had no choice but to muster up his courage and replied: "Yes, we saw that pillar hall." ”
"Are all the souls in there okay?"
"You mean those porcelain jars?"
"Nope! It is not an ordinary porcelain jar, it is a spirit box that stores the souls of our ancestors! ”
"That's right! Spirit boxes, those spirit boxes are very well preserved. Those are your ......"
Tang Feng wanted to ask something more, but was interrupted by the great lama: "That's good!" You can go out, you can take what belongs to you, and as for the guns, I will keep them for you for a few days. ”
The three of them shook their heads, took their respective backpacks and walked out of the Buddhist hall, Heiyun led the three of them to visit the entire wooden house, but they didn't expect that this seemingly ordinary wooden house, there is a hole in it, the whole wooden house in addition to the Buddhist hall, there are seven or eight rooms, kitchens, toilets are also available; In front of the gate, there is a large platform that can overlook the seven-colored Jinhai, Tang Feng stood on the big platform, bathed in the warm sunshine, and couldn't help sighing: "This is a holiday villa, and there is such a big viewing platform, the only regret is that there is no modern equipment here, everything is primitive and natural." ”
Tang Feng's emotion provoked Heiyun to "giggle" again, "What's so funny about you?" Tang Feng asked Heiyun puzzled.
"I'm laughing at the way you just looked!" Heiyun stared at Tang Feng and said.
"Hey! Heiyun, I want to ask you a question, your name is Heiyun, but what's your surname? Han Jiang suddenly asked.
Heiyun shook his head in confusion, "I don't know what my surname is, it is said that I was born, and it was the name 'Heiyun' given to me by the Great Lama, and for as long as I can remember, everyone has always called me Heiyun, and no one has ever called my surname." ”
"What? You don't even have a surname? What about your parents? Tang Feng exclaimed.
"I don't have parents, I was raised by the great lama."
"And what's your sister's name?"
"White clouds."
"Black clouds? White clouds? What a poetic name, but also a strange name! Tang Feng sighed.
Tang Feng looked at the black cloud in front of him, his eyes were clear and flawless, but he couldn't get the answer he wanted from these clear and flawless eyes, "Black cloud, can you tell us about you?" Who are you? Why do you live in this isolated mountain? ”
Black Cloud shook his head again, "No! I can't say that I've said enough just now that the Great Lama doesn't allow me to talk about us to outsiders. Heiyun lowered his head, was silent for a while, and then said, "Even if I want to tell you, I don't know much, Great Lama...... He seems to have a myriad of secrets in him, and I have a lot to know, such as who are my parents? But...... But the Great Lama never told me, and I don't know why he was so opposed to my sister's marriage......"
"Are you saying that your sister was martyred because the Grand Lama objected to her marrying the boy?" Tang Feng was surprised.
"Hmmm! Not only was the Grand Lama opposed, but the boy's family was also opposed to this family business. Black Cloud silently shed two lines of tears.
"In other words, in fact, your sister was forced to death by the Great Lama?" Tang Feng came to such a conclusion.
"Nope! No! You can't say that, the Great Lama raised us, he must be for our good, he must have his reasons for not agreeing with his sister's family affairs. "Heiyun couldn't accept Tang's conclusion at all.
"I think you have been brainwashed by the Great Lama, and you are still protecting him like this!" Tang Feng stared at the closed door of the Buddha hall and said, and began to rejudge in his heart - what kind of strange person is this great lama?
7
Heiyun returned to the house and prepared a room for the three of them, only Han Jiang, Tang Feng and Makarov were left on the platform, Tang Feng looked around and found that the group of people who had taken them here were gone, "It seems that those people are going back?" ”
Han Jiang glanced more carefully, the gang was indeed gone, he pulled Tang Feng aside and whispered, "Hmm! Now there are only the Great Lama and the Black Cloud here besides us, and if it weren't for the Great Lama agreeing to send us away, I would have thought ...... right now."
"Shhhh Do you want to escape? Tang Feng exclaimed.
"I don't want to think about it for the time being, let's stay here first and see the situation!"
"You think we can get out?"
"There must be a road leading to the outside here, I don't believe that these people can live in this paradise without leaning outside, whether they live in the Qin and Han dynasties, regardless of the Wei and Jin dynasties, don't you notice the tools they use?"
"Utensils?"
"For example, the porcelain bowls we eat in, and many of the furnishings in the wooden house, which are not produced here, which shows that this is not an isolated paradise, there must be a road to the outside."
"That makes sense, but maybe it's a difficult path?"
"No matter how difficult the road is, since they can walk, we can also walk!" Han Jiang said firmly.
"In my opinion, for now, let's not act rashly, see how the Grand Lama arranges for us to go out, and if he breaks his promise, we will make a decision."
"Hmmm! That's what I mean! …… What do you think of everything here? Especially these people? Han Jiang turned to ask Tang Feng's opinion.
Tang Feng thought for a moment and said his opinion: "I can't say it well, originally I heard the elder reciting the exorcism spell by the pit, judging that this was the old custom of Western Xia, and adding some other evidence, such as the discovery of the pillar hall, so I began to believe that these people were the people of the party who returned to the birthplace of the party after the fall of the Western Xia, but the elder said that he didn't know what the Western Xia was, what the party, when I passed by their village, I also carefully observed their village, and found no other abnormalities, Although the dress of the villagers is a little peculiar, there are still many similarities with the dress of the Tibetans in western Sichuan. ”
"You mean, it's possible that these people are part of the Tibetan tribe?"
"It's entirely possible, and it could be a branch of the Qiang people, because I observed their buildings, which are very similar to the Qiang villages we have seen, and they are also houses built with stones."
"Oh! Still that complicated? ”
"Yes! It is indeed difficult to determine, even if the Dangxiang people had been here, hundreds of years have passed, and they may have migrated to other places, such as Muya in the Hengduan Mountains in southwest Sichuan, many scholars believe that the Muya people there were Dangxiang people who moved back to their hometowns, or they may have been completely assimilated into the nearby Han, Tibetan, Qiang and many other ethnic groups. ”
"So the party members may have disappeared completely?"
"Well, the academic community has long concluded that the party members have disappeared, and even if the people here have the blood of the party members, they may not retain many party members' customs."
Han Jiang thought for a long time and said to Tang Feng: "It seems that there is only one person who can help us solve the mystery. ”
"You mean...... Grand Lama? Tang Feng quickly thought of this.
"That's right! Great Lama! From the moment I met the Great Lama, I felt that we could get what we wanted from the Great Lama! Han Jiang replied.
"Yes! I feel that way too. ”
After Tang Feng and Han Jiang finished chatting, they looked at Makarov, who hadn't spoken much, walked over, and asked, "Old Ma, what are you thinking?" ”
"I didn't think about anything."
"Didn't think anything? In such a mysterious place, you have encountered so many things, and you don't even think about anything, this is not like a veteran! ”
"Hehe, you don't know this, if you want to defeat your enemy, you need a smart brain, but when I served in the army, I developed a habit, when you can't figure out the difficult problems you face, you just don't think about anything, don't think about anything, just do what is in front of me step by step, this is also a way for me to survive!"
"It's a very practical way to survive."
"As you said, we have come this way, in addition to being hunted and killed, we have also encountered one puzzle after another, and now, all kinds of question marks have filled my brain, which has exceeded the limit of what I can bear, I am old, far less than when I was young, so, I don't think about anything now."
"Then you have to think about what to do next?"
"Don't think about it, the great lama has already shown us the way, live here in peace, eat well, rest well, and when the little girl recovers, he will send us out of here, which is not very good, we can just enjoy a rare vacation here."
"You can think about it!" Tang Feng was speechless by Makarov, he turned to look at the big snow mountain in the distance, the big snow mountain is still so quiet and majestic, just like when they first saw the snow mountain yesterday morning, the peak of the snow mountain is hidden in the clouds and mist, not showing its true face, looking at it, Tang Feng suddenly has a feeling of being in the clouds and mist.
The three of them enjoyed the rare sunshine in the afternoon on the platform, and when the sun set, Heiyun prepared a sumptuous dinner for them, and when they ate, they did not see the Great Lama, Tang Feng asked Heiyun: "Won't the Great Lama come to eat together?" ”
"The Great Lama has already eaten it."
"Have you eaten?" Tang Feng was suspicious again. After dinner, Heiyun led the three of them to their respective rooms, and then said to them, "That girl will stay in my room, and I will take care of her." In the end, Heiyun warned them: "You can go anywhere in this wooden house, but you can't enter that Buddhist hall, you must remember my words, and don't enter the Buddhist hall." The three of them glanced at the Buddha hall again, the mysterious Buddha hall, the mysterious lama!
Before Tang Feng went to bed, he went to Heiyun's room to look at Liang Yuan, although Liang Yuan had not woken up yet, but his face was bloody again, Tang Feng was a little relieved and returned to his room. In this mountain cabin, everything is like going back to ancient times, there is no electric light, no entertainment, what can you do at night? Lying on the bed and sleeping, his brain was entangled by countless puzzles, tossing and turning, tossing and turning for a long time, and Tang Feng fell asleep.
