Chapter 22: Shanna's Suicide Notice
The mural fascinated me deeply, yes, he did have a gun in his hand, but the type of gun was very different from the bird gun in my hand, it was more like an assault rifle, the short body was much shorter and more elaborate than the bird gun in my hand, but this was not the most surprising to me, in the next picture, the man was still the same person, but his head was replaced with the head of a beast, and he stood there straight with the gun in his hand as if he had become a god, in front of him, Many naked men, women, and children are bowing to him.
Countless thoughts were spinning in my head, and it seemed that someone had been to the island before, and it was a modern person like me. But now the island has become what I saw, and what kind of changes have happened in the process. It's something I don't know.
The old indigenous woman next to me looked at me quietly, without saying a word, until my eyes turned to the strokes of the beast-headed human body, he nodded slightly and pointed to the mural in front of me to signal me to look from the beginning, but I ignored him, just pointed to the mural of the beast-headed human body, and then spread my hands and signaled to him where this person is?
The old woman didn't seem to understand what I meant. He stood there and tilted his head and thought for a long time, and suddenly as if he understood something, he hurriedly pulled me out of the cave, pointed in the direction of the sun and shouted loudly to Shanna, seeing that I didn't seem to understand what he meant, and bowed down in the direction of the sun, his hands formed a circle at the center of his eyebrows, and his mouth was still reading Shanna aloud, I couldn't understand what Shanna was pronounced? But it seems to understand her intentions. The Shanna in her mouth should be referring to the sun in the sky, and then nodded like an old woman.
The old woman regained her smile and nodded to me, then slowly stood up and walked back to the cave with me in one step.
Stand where we were standing just now. He pointed to the mural of the beast-headed human body, and his mouth was still reading Sanna, Sanna? She repeated the name-like pronunciation repeatedly, and I understood his thoughts a little, the figure in the mural should be Shanna's deity, like her god, and the sun she refers to should be Shanna's incarnation.
If it is really like the mural, then it means that there was once a modern person like me who visited this place, which means that this small island is quite close to the civilized continent that I am familiar with. In fact, the most important thing I need to figure out now is where this Shanna in the mural is now.
Unfortunately, I pointed to the mural and said "Shanna" and "Shanna" like an indigenous old woman, and asked, "Where?" "Where?" But she looked dazed, as if she didn't understand what I was saying, just shook her head, and as a last resort, I pulled her out of the cave again, and drew various patterns on the ground with branches to express my thoughts, until I couldn't count how many patterns I had drawn, and the old native woman understood what I meant, but it seemed that she was once again lost in thought, tilting her head and looking at me motionlessly.
It took a long time for the old native woman to lean down. It was also painted with branches.
He first drew a large human figure, and then, like a child, drew a row of circles on the ground, and there were so many circles that they were densely packed and innumerable. It wasn't until finally that she drew a smaller figure and pointed to her as her. And the biggest humanoid she called Shanna.
The old woman seemed to be quite pleased with the masterpiece she had left on the ground, but I was bewildered by her, and shook my head at her blankly, and the old woman looked disappointed, and in that faint look felt that a basin of cold water had been poured on her face, so she did another thing that puzzled me even more.
He led me back to the cave, pointed at Shanna again, and then closed his eyes and put his hands on his side as if he were asleep. Suddenly, she opened her eyes, only to find that his eyes were rolling upwards, and he was rolling his eyes, and then he was referring to the sun in the sky, muttering a bunch of strange words.
Shanna is dead?
When I saw her make this move, my first impression was that this person named Shanna had passed away. This disappointed me a lot. I thought I had got a key back to civilization. But now that hope has been dashed again.
The old woman seemed to be very excited when she saw that I understood her, but she did not know the loss in my heart, and she pointed to the fire, and said "Shanna" with a trembling mouth; Then he hurriedly leaned down and pointed to the bone tip of the spear javelin I held in my hand, and muttered "Shanna"; He even pretended to have food in his hand and roasted it on the fire and then chewed it, and then continued to mutter about Shanna! As if to tell me that all of this was brought to her or them by this person named Shanna.
Her movements became more and more rapid, more and more like she was telling me about the greatness of Shanna in her heart, until she coughed up from exhaustion, and this action stopped.
But when she finally took a deep breath and slowly stood up again, her eyes radiated an astonishing look at me, and she pointed at my bird and then at me, and said, "Shanna." Looking at her demeanor, it seemed to tell me that now I came here with a weapon that can smoke and hit people in the same way as the one on the mural, so when I was also Shanna, the feeling of confusion in my mind can be imagined, so I pointed to myself in a questioning tone and asked, "Me?" Shanna? She didn't answer, just nodded.
I hurriedly shook my head at her, this is not reliable, if this matter is done, if they also pretend to be a beast head for me and let me marry a few indigenous girls, I will go crazy in a few days, that's for sure.
When she saw me shaking her head, she pulled me to the beginning of the mural, looking at it one by one, until the beast head and human body, which was similar to my conjecture just now, and roughly described that these people originally drank blood and lived the miserable life of the eldest and their second child, and could only live by holding animal bones as weapons to round up prey, and even there would be many disputes within or between tribes, until the man named Shanna appeared, they put down the animal bones and improved the spear, and created a fire source for turning raw meat into cooked food, They even had some words of their own, and when they looked at the mural behind the beast-headed man, they realized that the so-called Shanna was not a name, but from the English SUN, and the three letters of the bean were engraved on the rock wall, but because they were away from the fire, I didn't see it at first sight, but these are not the most important things in my opinion, the most important painting is at the innermost end of the rock wall, hidden in the corner where the flames are difficult to reach.
A string of very familiar English words lay quietly, and the walls were a little wet due to the heat of the flames, making it difficult to spot.
