Professor Sun frowned: "I'm also anxious, but there is information to check, only the hometown and address of Commander Feng who stayed in the army when he joined the army, and later finally found his file, but he has never been able to find his ancestral hometown." Whole \ Ben // Small \ Say // Net \"

Only then did I understand that it seemed that this matter was really not easy, the late Ming Dynasty and the war at the end of the Qing Dynasty led to the migration of displaced people, resulting in a large number of immigrants in Sichuan, Hunan, Hubei and other places, so the address of the place of origin left in the file is not the ancestral home of the head of the Feng regiment several generations ago, or if he finds someone close to him, I'm afraid no one can know the details.

I felt half cold in my heart, and asked Professor Sun again: "Then there is no hope of finding it?" ”

Professor Sun said: "I have been inquiring in many ways, and I just had some clue until noon today, but I ......" said and took out a Chinese atlas that he had just bought, opened it and pointed it out to me: "Only in this mountain, the clouds are deep and I don't know where to go." ”

I took a closer look at the location he pointed, it turned out to be Wushan in the area of the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River, since ancient times, it was said that Wushan was cloudy and twilight rain, and the goddess peak was hazy, and in ancient times it was the fief and mausoleum of Wuxian, so it was called "Wushan", which has been used to this day. This place is covered by clouds and fog all the year round, and the clouds and mist cover the trend of the mountains, so the word "hope" of touching the golden captain is not useful, and the specific location should be more precise, I asked Professor Sun: "Wushan belongs to the dragon branch, in the Qingwu feng shui has always had a group of dragons without a leader, the most unpredictable, this mountain is also within the scope of the influence of Wuchu culture, there are many ancient customs and legends, although now it has been found that the ancestor of the head of the Feng regiment is in Wushan County, but the scope of this area is still too large, Didn't you find out what town or village it was? Don't drag the text to me and say anything, Yun Shen doesn't know where to go, his hometown town must have a place name. ”

Professor Sun said with some embarrassment: "I inquired about the name of the town, called Qingxi Town, but this map is very detailed, there are all kinds of places in Wushan County, large and small, but I can't find a place called Qingxi Town, so I said that it is only in this mountain, and I don't know where it is." ”

I heard Sun Jiuye say that there is no "Qingxi Town" in the map of Wushan County, and I feel a little confused, is the source inaccurate? Or maybe it's because of the changes in history, and the ancient place names have not been used? Therefore, there is no mark in the newly published map, this town is still in existence in the Ming Dynasty, it must be an ancient town, and there should be ruins to be found if it is abandoned and abandoned, and it is impossible to not even have a tile left.

Professor Sun nodded in agreement: "At the beginning, I lied to Lao Chen and asked you to go to the South China Sea to salvage the ancient mirror, and I thought about it for a long time and decided to go with you, what is the plan?" ”

I thought for a while and said: "Ninth Master, you finally want to open, the matter of Qingxi Ancient Town, you can go to Wushan County to inquire again, we can't delay any longer, we will set off tomorrow, there should not be too many people." The fewer people who know, the better. Let's sum it up later. ”

When I came out of the study, I saw that the guests outside had dispersed, and Professor Chen was very drunk. I had already been helped back to the bedroom to rest, so I called Shirley Yang and the fat man into the study, locked the door, and plotted a plan to go to Wushan for a "field trip".

In the study of Professor Chen's house, there are cabinets full of books, naturally there are a lot of literary and historical materials such as local chronicles, Sun Jiuye rummaged through the cabinets and found a few books like big bricks, checked the historical evolution of Wushan County, but did not find any record of the "headless king", it seems that the head of the Feng regiment mentioned the "hint". It's not so easy to find the answer.

I said to Professor Sun: "I don't know if there is a headless king in Wushan, but it is said that Emperor Yongzheng of the Qing Dynasty was assassinated and cut off by Lu Siniang, so when Yongzheng was buried, his body was headless and received a golden head, which is headless, but he is the emperor, if you want to say that it is a king." Didn't you demote him? Besides, the age and geographical location do not coincide. ”

Sun Jiuye said: "This is a wild historical legend, not enough to believe, Wu Chu culture period, there was also a headless general, but he is not a prince, the ancient punishment of cutting off the head is very common, in the troubled times, there are many princes and generals, and even the emperor, in the end, they all ended up separated from their heads, to count them one by one, I am afraid that we will never find a clue, so our eyes should still focus on the land of Bashu." ”

After discussing for a long time, they couldn't think of a "headless king" near Wushan, Shirley Yang said: "I'm afraid this king is not a king, the local legend still has to be inquired about after arriving in Wushan County, in order to be confirmed, since tomorrow will set off into Sichuan, it should be a careful plan first." ”

Sun Jiuye said: "Do you have to find a way to open a letter of introduction or something?" It is also convenient to go to the local accommodation and walk, and you need to wait at least another month to open a letter of introduction. ”

I said that I don't need to open a letter of introduction, but it is really convenient to have a letter of introduction, so I can simply write one myself, and let the big gold tooth find a master who engraves the seal, and engrave a basket of seals overnight.

Sun Jiuye was speechless: "Or do you have a kind of letter of introduction that you dare to open by yourself?" ”

The fat man smiled and said: "In these years, I don't recognize people, and I am prepared for a set of basket seals, Sun Laojiu, you don't know, there are many craftsmen in Panjiayuan who make a living by carving basket seals." ”

Shirley Yang didn't know the use of the letter of introduction and asked me what gear I should bring? What is the natural geography of Wushan?

I said to Shirley Yang: "I have never been to Wushan, but when I was in the army before, there were a few Chongqing comrades-in-arms, according to them, Wushan is the gateway to the east of Sichuan, the county has many slopes and steps, the overall terrain is summed up in general, it is seven mountains and one place and two waters, the endless Yangtze River is rolling, the mountains are cloudy and rainy, we used to stay in Beijing There are not many tools and equipment, but I think it should be enough, although this time it is also into the mountains, but the local is not as good as the Xinjiang desert, explosives and guns can not be carried, In addition to the tools of Lieutenant Jin, it is enough to bring only first-aid medicines, sapper shovels, lighting and communication equipment, and simple mountaineering equipment. ”

The fat man said: "Bringing a gun is like a tiger with wings, no guy in his hand is not brave, I guess what kind of Guanshan Taibao is not a fuel-efficient lamp, most of them are experienced thieves, murderous robbers, and bring more explosives to be prepared." ”

I told him: "In recent years, the railways and highways have been extremely tightly checked, and flammable and explosive materials are not allowed on the road. But it has never been said that it is terrifying and dangerous, I see at most it is just some old malfunctioning machine bracket pin, we are into the mountains to investigate, and not to fight, want to come to the tomb of the earth immortal hidden in Wushan, but it is a large landowner's tomb in the Ming Dynasty, it is mainly hidden secret, can not be as strong as the emperor's tomb. So there is no need to bring a cannon to fight mosquitoes, this time we mainly have to rely on our means of touching gold. Sun Jiuye interjected and said: "Okay, you are Hu Bayi, you are so experienced, you have taught you to say that you are on the point, and you dare to say that you don't know the craft of tomb robbing?" However, if you want to find the ancient tomb of Dixian Village, you have to have someone like you to do it. ”

I said: "In terms of deciphering ancient symbols and riddles, your Sun Jiuye is Yuan Liang, but when it comes to searching mountains and looking for dragons, you are a layman, but as for what a good king." There are immortal words without a leader, you want to see the earth immortals, and you have to count on you to find a way to crack it, and when the time comes, we will take a two-pronged approach. Don't worry about not being able to do this. ”

Having said that, I did not make an optimistic estimate in my heart, perhaps in the end I had to face the result of nothing, the legend of Dixian Village is extremely mysterious, mostly not contained in the official history, the only more credible record is from the Qing Dynasty Sichuan people wrote a notebook "Bashu Miscellaneous Records", which mentions: At the end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, the Liukou entered the Sichuan and excavated the ancient tombs on a large scale. If I don't really can't think of any other tricks, I won't just rely on the record of a few words, I will go to Sichuan to find the ancient tomb of Dixian Village, and the legend of the late Ming Dynasty digging the cave did not occur in the Wushan area, but the "Bashu Miscellaneous Records" is not a wild rumor, and the book truly records many things in Sichuan. The content is still relatively credible.

At this time, the fat man remembered that there was still an important issue that had not been discussed, and immediately stood up and said: "What the old man said just now is very good, but the ideological work is not enough, the commander will add a few words to everyone, in the face of the crying and asking for help from the egg people in the South China Sea, they are all eaten by skill, we must not stand by and watch, listen to you, that Guanshan Taibao is a thief, the gold and jewelry he hid in the ancient tomb of Wushan, must be piled up, I think our expedition team, should be in line with the principle of not being corrupt and wasteful, When the time comes, it's time to put it in the pile, and it's time to pack it......"

Professor Sun immediately objected: "Absolutely not, just extend the keel pattern of the Zhou Tian hexagram, nothing else will be moved, I repeat, I am not here to get rich." ”

The fat man said that you are not deceiving yourself? Is it nobler to compete for fame than to pursue profit? I stopped the fat man and said: "Dealing with people and things, each has its own way, I can't force it, I don't care about other things, anyway, I have to pick out the ancient corpse pill, it's too early to argue about what to do, just wait until you find the ancient tomb of Wushan and then act on the camera." ”

The discussion has been completed, the four of us will tidy up and tidy up, set off early the next morning, indispensable "there is a road to ride, meet the water to board the boat", do not put those "hungry and thirsty, tired boat" suffering, Wushan County is the Yangtze River in the Three Gorges of the Wuxia section, the surging current of the Yangtze River swallows the mountains with the momentum of swallowing the mountains, open up the lofty mountains and mountains to the east, this section of the gorge is divided into "Zhaitang Gorge, Wu Gorge, Xiling Gorge" three sections, there are wide valleys between the gorges and the gorges, the total length is nearly 200 kilometers.

Huotang Gorge is known for its majestic and steep, Xiling Gorge is a beach with many water rapids, the origin of its name, can also be traced back to the Han Dynasty, just like Ruan Ling, Wuling these place names, are named because of the burial of ancient mounds or hidden hanging coffins, but now it has long been impossible to find the ruins of Qiulong Mausoleum, and no one can tell clearly which ancients are buried in these places named after "Mausoleum".

Wuxia is characterized by "deep and beautiful", with mountains stretching and clouds and fog barriers. Wushan County is through the winding mountain road, you can take a long-distance bus into the county seat, the mountain road is winding and rugged, the fog is thick on the day, the car is extremely slow, the dense forest around the dense green dye, and the slope of the strange stone protrusion, looming in the clouds and mist, it is difficult to see the beautiful scenery of the peaks.

Didn't go half the way, the driver parked the car, it is estimated that he may be afraid of not driving in the fog, afraid of accidents, want to wait until the clouds disperse before leaving, at that time there were few Chinese cars, there are fewer people with driver's licenses, so the driver who can drive is respected, who knows a driver who can drive, in front of others will feel that there is a light on the face.

This kind of atmosphere is heavier in the mountainous areas, and the girls with good appearance and good conditions are willing to marry the driver, and the one who marries the driver is both beautiful and spirited, and the one who is not married is in tears all day long. The driver is also angry, say no two, he doesn't want to go, no passenger dares to urge him, if the driver is happy to drink a few taels, and then sleep in the afternoon before willing to drive is not impossible, only this car every day, want to sit or not, we follow the customs, but also had to eat and rest in a small town on the side of the road, by the way to find out the news of Qingxi Town and the headless king.

This small town can not be smaller built by the mountain, the building is mostly red and white, most of them are old houses before the liberation, we found a local snack shop at the entrance of the town to enjoy lunch, the boss is a bald head, stupid, according to their local dialect is "melon", grinning when someone comes to eat, and does not know how to greet guests, but what you want to eat he will do for you, the craft is still to be obtained.

I ate two bowls of dragon copying hands, and the bottom of my stomach was there, and my braincase, which had been bumped all the way, was much clearer, so I gave Shirley Yang and Sun Jiuye a look, and asked them to continue eating. ”

The bald head boss was overjoyed when he heard this, and asked me where I came from? I said that we came here from Beijing to inspect historical sites, and I would like to ask you about the place to see if you know.

The bald old man nodded and said, "Yes, I don't know where you want to inquire?" ”

I asked him if he knew where Wushan Qingxi Town was? And in ancient times, is there a legend that the king was cut off from his head?

The bald old man shook his head and said, "I haven't heard of it, where is the king who has had his head cut off?" Before the liberation, there were many people who were cut off by bandits and warlords, and at that time I was still a half-grown baby, and I heard the old people say that the wooden stakes at the corner of the street are used for beheading......"
