The flakes and stones clearly showed signs of being chiseled - some of them broke during the excavation, some of them broke their blades, and some of them were abandoned there.

Could this really be a tool of the savages? In this information age where you don't know what is going on without going out, are there really primitive tribes of the Stone Age in the Pamirs?

If it weren't a primitive tribe, could it be a unique species?

The current official name of humans is "Homo sapiens", and it is the only surviving species under the genus Homo. Fourteen species of the genus Homo existed throughout history, thirteen of which were eventually exterminated by Homo sapiens.

In other words, the history of human development is the history of the destruction of the same ancestry.

The last species that perished under the genus is called the Floris, a race of dwarves only about one meter in height, who perished 18,000 years ago.

Since then, there have been very few other genus groups in the world that have been discovered, documented, or recognized.

Unknown species found in remote areas are generally referred to as "savages". Whether the savages were barbaric Homo sapiens or some other unidentified human race remains a mystery to this day.

However, Lin Shan actually had some ideas in his heart for a long time.

The three words "Guangming Ding" on the stone on the top of the nameless mountain are very rough engraved. Although the "top" is a traditional Chinese character, according to the weathering situation, the age of the lettering is not very far away, it should be in the last few years.

Moreover, the reason why the wild man snatched the argali, it was most likely because the smell of the roasted meat after the thunderbolt struck the argali. But if they were really savages, they would probably still be in a state of drinking blood, and cooked meat would not be very attractive to them.

Therefore, Lin Shan suspected that the people in the valley were not savages, but isolated people, and most likely compatriots.

Savages are in danger of savages, they are muscular, full of physical energy, and have the upper hand in physical strength. But if it is a reclusive person, there are other dangers as well.

They are in the wild all year round, and their physical strength and explosiveness are naturally much stronger than ordinary people, and more importantly, their intelligence is on par with them. It may be possible to outwit the wildling, but it is not feasible to outwit or force the recluse.

The only way is to move people with emotion.

Because humans are sentient animals, feelings often move people the most.

So Lin Shan kept his eyes on Dahemina. He knew that Dahemina had a gun in his hand, but it could be a self-defense, or it could be a mistake. If those people think that they are a great threat to them, then they will most likely carry out a sneak attack in the shadows.

Three punches are hard to beat four hands, not to mention those people are more familiar with the terrain than them, know this place better, and just set a trap to kill them.

The two of them walked around the valley, and apart from the red willow bushes, they did not dare to step into the small forest of mixed trees next to them.

However, on the green grass, they found some foraging argali, hares and pheasants, as well as some suspected hunting traps.

Dahmina was apparently aware of the same problem, and she exchanged views with Lin Shan, agreeing with his emotionally appealing approach.

Still, she was a little disappointed.

"If only it were a wild man."

"It's really a wild man, I guess it's not so smart." Lin Shan said.

"You say, are they Chinese or Tajiks, why are they hiding in such inaccessible deep mountains and wild valleys?" She looked at Lin Shan and asked.

"I don't know, maybe they've been living here for years. Didn't you say that you had civil wars before? ”

"The civil war was fought on the border between the north and the south, and Goh was the stronghold of the opposition, but there was a massacre of Pamirs, perhaps Pamirs who fled here for refuge."

By Go, Dakhmina is referring to the Gorno-Badakhshan Autonomous Oblast in western Tajikistan.

Most of the state is on the Pamirs, and it is so large that it occupies almost half of Tajikistan's territory, but its population is very small, just over three percent of Tajikistan's total population.

In 1992, during the Tajik Civil War, Goh Oblast declared independence, causing war to erupt and many Pamiris were killed by other ethnic groups.

The Pamirs, also known as the Tajiks of the Plateau, are an ethnic group with the Tajiks of China. The main ethnic group of Tajikistan is called Plain Tajik, and the two Tajiks belong to the same ancestor, but the language is not the same, the beliefs are different, and the customs are also different.

During the civil war, the Pamiris left the hinterland cities and moved to the border areas. So there is some truth to Dakhmina's "Pamir refuge theory".

But Lin Shan still thinks they are Chinese, because there are simply too few Pamirs and Tajiks on the border of Xinjiang who know Chinese and can write Chinese characters.

It was impossible for them to climb to the top of the mountain and write the words "Bright Peak".

There are two most famous place names in Guangmingding, one in reality and the other in fiction.

In reality, Guangming Peak is in Anhui, it is one of the main peaks of Yellow Mountain, with an altitude of more than 2,000 meters. The fictional Guangming Peak is in Mr. Jin Yong's "Heaven and Dragon Slayer", which is located in the Kunlun Mountains in the west and is the location of the general rudder of Mingjiao.

The Kunlun Mountain said by the ancients is also called Kunlun Xu, Kunlun Hill, its scope is far larger than the current Kunlun Mountain Range, known as the ancestor of ten thousand mountains.

If that is the case, it is not inappropriate to think of the legendary Kunlun Hill as the Pamirs.

Could it be that this 3,200-meter peak is the bright top of the Mingjiao General Altar recorded in Jin Yong's book?

Seeing that it was getting late, Lin Shanshan and Dahemina did not dare to camp in the valley. Lin Shan suggested that he should not return to the old camping site on the slope of the 3023 Highlands, and should find a more secluded place.

The two men searched for a long time, and finally found a small hill not far from the two peaks and the bottom of the valley.

There is a flat clearing on the mountainside of this small hill, right in the direction of the wind, and the view is wide, and there are no steep slopes outside the blind spot. In this way, as long as there is a person on duty outside, he can find it in time when he encounters wind and grass.

In the evening, the two of them cooked instant noodles and ate compressed biscuits. Lin Shan also found two Snickers, one for each of them, and chewed it in their mouths.

This thing is very sweet, but it can replenish energy, and the temperature difference on the plateau is very large, and you need to consume heat at night to resist the cold.

Because the second half of the night is colder and more difficult, Dahmina is on duty in the first half of the night, and the forest cedar is changed in the second half of the night.

I don't know why, that night, Lin Shan lay in the tent and couldn't sleep. His mind was tossing and turning over and over with many things, but he couldn't be quiet.

He sat up quietly, pulled out a corner of the tent and looked out, only to see Dahemina, dressed in a thick warm suit, walking back and forth outside, holding her hands incessantly.

This Tajik girl is not easy. Lin Shan looked at her back, but quieted down, and he fell asleep unconsciously.

He was awakened by the sound of a gunshot that pierced the night.
