Chapter 90: The Zilai River and the Bridge of Light and Dark

"Big brother, what are you doing here?" The second pot covered half of the bright red finger prints on his face, and he was aggrieved and incomprehensible.

"Shut up if you want to shut up, why do you talk so much nonsense!" Guo Liang squinted at the second pot, looked at Xue Bufan, clasped his hands into fists, bowed his head, and said sincerely with awe: "This lord, I Guo Liang has eyes and does not know Mount Tai, I have offended you, I'm sorry!" ”

Erguo originally resented Guo Liang for letting him make a mess in front of a group of people, but when he saw Guo Liang's respectful attitude towards the people in the car, he immediately understood, and the people in the car were afraid that they couldn't even provoke Guo Liang, so he could only swallow his anger and dare not make another time.

"Get out of the way, we're busy going into the city to eat." Xue Bufan said.

"Okay, okay." Guo Liang nodded again and again in fear, and immediately ordered to his subordinates: "Don't go and reverse the car quickly." ”

Giving Pan a response, waving his hand, seven or eight junior brothers hurriedly ran to reverse the two giant trucks blocking the road, and made way for vehicles to drive.

Xue Bufan didn't say anything more, asked Ouyang Qianyu to close the car door, and drove straight down the hillside.

Erguo looked at the truck that had been drifting away and drove towards Feixia Pass, and said with concern: "Big brother, the little lady of the Ouyang family is still in the car, this ......"

"Needless to say, we can't stop it even if we want to, the other party is at least an intermediate and late-stage awakening master, just because we are not enough to stuff people's teeth." Guo Liang said flexibly. recalled his blindness and ignorance just now, but fortunately the other party didn't take it to heart, otherwise whether he could still stand here now is two words.

"Then when the people of the Huan family ask, what should we do?"

"It's going to be that time...... We can only tell the truth. Guo Liang pondered for a while, looked up at the endless sea of clouds that began to cover the blue sky, and said indifferently: "I'm afraid that the Huan family is too busy to take care of themselves now." The Hoba Yiliao family must have known about this. Let's get them to mess with each other. ”

Erguo's eyes rolled and flattered: "Big brother is wise!" ”

……

"Uncle Xue, how long will it take for us to arrive? My stomach was already hungry, and I was running out of strength. Zhuge Xiaoqiang said weakly. I was quite excited when I had a verbal fight with the second pot just now, but after that momentum, the whole person was deflated.

Originally, I was a little hungry before, but I was intercepted by the group of roadblocks and delayed for about ten minutes, and the hunger index directly increased in proportion.

"It's just that you kid talks a lot, aren't you very good when you were arguing with others just now?" Xue Bufan said.

"Hehe, isn't this to defend my beloved Uncle Xue."

"Sycophants." Bai Qi said with contempt.

"Brother, what do you say? I sincerely defend Uncle Xue, and I don't have any moisture at all. No, there is no adulteration at all. Zhuge Xiaoqiang said vigorously.

The more Zhuge Xiaoqiang expressed his intentions, the more Bai Qi felt that he was adding gold to his face.

"If you don't pretend to die, will you?" Bai Qi slapped Zhuge Xiaoqiang on the back of the head and said.

Before, Zhuge Xiaoqiang was so handsome that he was jealous and endured it, but now he is still in this set, he really can't stand it, he dares to pretend to be better than himself, how can he bear it?

Zhuge Xiaoqiang covered the back of his head and said dissatisfiedly to Bai Qi: "Brother, why are you beating me?" I'm acting in my true colors, where is it? ”

", you turned out to be a 'true color', it's really a heavy taste!" Bai Qi bites the word "true color" very hard, and the meaning is clear.

Zhuge Xiaoqiang, who is a veteran driver of the drag racing party, of course heard the intriguing in Bai Qi's amazement, and immediately retorted for himself: "Is my handle straight!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Lin and Ouyang Qianyu, who didn't know what was going on, both looked at Zhuge Xiaoqiang without squinting, and Zhuge Xiaoqiang felt strange with those eyes.

After all, judging from the relationship between the beginning and the end of the preamble, what Bai Qi said and Zhuge Xiaoqiang's words were not at all related, so Li Lin and Ouyang Qianyu both felt that Zhuge Xiaoqiang said something strange.

Fortunately, Li Lin and Ouyang Qianyu did not enter the Tao. After all, once you enter the rotten road, it is as deep as the sea, and from then on you are a passerby. And people like Zhuge Xiaoqiang, whose discipline has long been shattered, are only a little embarrassed to be seen.

Bai Qi, who is an understanding person, is funny on the side, telling you to pretend, pretend to be a ghost and a dead ghost (slang: cocoon self-restraint).

"Okay, after the Feixia Pass in front of you, you will have a place to eat." Xue Bufan interjected at the right time.

"Lord Bufan, when you enter the city, you can go to my house for dinner." Ouyang Qianyu took the opportunity to say, "First, I can thank you for saving your life, and second, my father often talks about you, I hope you can go to talk about it." ”

"Okay." Xue Bufan was not hypocritical, and agreed directly.

Feixia Pass, built with the steep cliff of Feixia Mountain as a barrier, becomes its own defense system to protect the water city. The pass is a culvert mouth dug artificially on the mountainside of Feixia.

The culvert entrance is connected by a suspension bridge. If there is a wartime guard, Feixia Pass will lift the suspension bridge road to isolate the bottom of the mountain. In this way, the alien beasts will have no way to invade.

When the truck drove to the Feixia Pass, a team of sergeants stood on the left and right of the cave entrance, but did not check the passing vehicles. Because the Feixia Pass is designed with a danger detector, you can clearly see the situation in the vehicles. As long as it is ensured that no foreign beasts are mixed, other conditions are basically not checked.

Hey?

"What's wrong?" Li Lin looked at Zhuge Xiaoqiang, who was suspicious, and said.

"When I was there on the hillside just now, there was such a big battle, why is there no one to 'welcome you' here now?" Zhuge Xiaoqiang was puzzled.

When Zhuge Xiaoqiang said this, Bai Qi and several people also felt a little strange.

How can a person who dares to block the road in such an open and honest way not have the protection of the military, that is to act arbitrarily under the noses of the city defense army!

Xue Bufan was also strange when he thought about it, originally he was ready for a big battle at the Feixia Pass, otherwise he would not have let go of the two of them easily, aiming to have more than one thing is better than less, but he didn't expect that nothing happened in the end. But that's fine, after all, you'll have to live here for a long time to come, and you can be more relaxed with less trouble.

Immediately, the truck passed through the long culvert of Feixia Pass unimpeded.

When you see the light, you will see a suspension bridge. It is estimated that the design intent of the suspension bridge is the same as that of the Seven Bridges City, if the Feixia Pass is unfortunately lost during the war, then this place can be used as an insurance for secondary barrier defense to isolate the invading alien beasts.

After driving on the suspension bridge, I looked to the left-hand side of the truck, and saw the turbulent water from west to east from the high ground to the low momentum, and its momentum was so great that the impact of the rock slapping on it could be clearly heard, which was urgent and violent.

"The river we see now is called Zilai River, which is of great significance to us Miao people. And this bridge is called the Light and Dark Bridge. Ouyang Qianyu played the role of a tour guide, explaining the environment and customs of the water city to the newcomers.

"Sister Qianyu, does this river and this bridge have any meaning?" Bai Qi said.

As soon as Dandan felt white, he was in good spirits, although he didn't know why, but he also became excited, jumping in Ouyang Qianyu's arms, looking like "babies also want to listen" and begged for explanation.

Ouyang Qianyu didn't think the balls were noisy, and stroked the balls with a smile, and then the balls quieted down. Then she explained, "Hmm. There is a legend in Zilaihe: there was once a couple, the man was called dirt bag, the woman was called Wu Bian, the couple was hardworking and loyal, and they did not worry about food and clothing, but they had no children and no daughters.

One day, a magpie landed on a tree in front of their house and cried. He asked the magpie, 'Magpie, magpie, you are so happy, do you know the sorrow of our husband and wife?' ’

The magpie replied, 'Dirty bag, O Mu Bian, just sew me a white short-sleeved jacket and put it on to block the sun, and I will tell you how to have a baby.' ’

He said: 'Magpie, as long as there are baby cubs, don't say sew a short-sleeved jacket, it is a hundred, and we are willing.' ’

So, Wu Bian found the homespun cloth he had woven and sewed a white short-sleeved jacket for the magpie. The magpie was very happy to put it on and never took it off again. In order to thank the couple of Dirt Bao and Wu Bian, the magpie said: 'The baby cub came from heaven to the mortal world, and on the way he often encountered a stream and a river, but he could not come because of his short legs. All you have to do is go to the river and build a bridge, and the baby will come to your house. ’

Dirt Bao and Wu Bian went to build a bridge according to what the magpie said, and sure enough, they gave birth to a son. After that, many couples followed the example of Jibao and Wubian, and also gave birth to babies. Over time, everyone called this river Zilai River. ”

"Sister Qianyu, why is this bridge called the Light and Dark Bridge instead of the Cub Bridge?" Zhuge Xiaoqiang, who was observing, said curiously.

Ouyang Qianyu smiled, probably every child who has heard this legend will have such a question, because there is a story behind.

Then she continued: "The bridge on the Zilai River was indeed similar to the bridge for receiving cubs at the beginning, and it was considered to be the bridge of life, and it was a place where childless people sacrificed to bless the heavens and sent their children. But with the development of the sacrificial activities, some families with children also began to come here to worship, praying that God would bless the children to eliminate diseases and disasters and grow up healthy. Over the years, the festival on this bridge has been formed.

And this kind of sacrificial activity is divided into two types: light and dark. The Ming is the sacrifice made by ordinary people, burning paper and incense on this bridge, and offering tribute. And the dark is done by the wizard 'Badaixiong', which is not clear to ordinary people at a glance, and it is unfathomable. Hence the name of the bridge between light and dark. ”

(PS: The sorcerer 'Mila' is different from 'Badaixiong', the former is generally sacrificed through dancing, and the latter is sacrificed by prayer and other sacrifices.) )
