Chapter 11: The Ancients
In fact, the curse spirit stone is not valuable, to put it bluntly, it is just an ordinary jade, its preciousness lies in being cursed, I also wonder why those maggots chase me desperately, it turns out that the big mouth snatched away other people's treasures.
"Big Mouth, you know what a curse stone is now, right? You just take it well, maybe one day you turn around and find that the maggots behind the butt are following a group, and they can form a reinforcement company."
I haven't finished my words yet, the big mouth's face changed color after a while, of course, I'm just talking nonsense, the curse spirit stone left the dungeon is an ordinary stone, has lost the object of the curse, maybe one day on the street can catch a fat turtle, after all, such a big piece of jade is not a joke.
"It's time for us to go, listen to your opinion, Comrade Yu Guangrong"
At this time, the big mouth looked worried, obviously because the baby who didn't get the value was sullen, in fact, it's almost the same, so many things that are satisfactory, it is inevitable to give the big mouth a political lesson for a while, what vision to take a long-term view, to save your life is the biggest gain, etc., I said that my mouth is dry, and I can finally see a little smile on the big mouth, so let's go.
This is the mountain of that dream that appeared in my mind, what is that place? Bayankala Mountains, according to legend, there was a glorious Charles Empire thousands of years ago, mythical rise, ghostly disappearance, Charles Empire witnessed the rise and fall of the Tangbo Ancient Road, and also became a part of the remains of civilization, but the Charles Empire did not enter the eyes of the world again, leaving too many ancient mysteries, worthy of future generations to solve, but the conditions of the Bayankala Mountains are too harsh, so that countless archaeologists and inverted masters have more than enough strength, so the fault line of that civilization has not been known to the world.
At this time, the big mouth seemed quite interested, and said that he looked like a traveler, I said that you don't want to gild yourself, at best it is a big word illiterate Faqiu general, from the shouting horse slope out of the road along the foot plus occasional means of transportation, our first stop arrived at Tianshui, the collection of Fuxi culture, Xuanyuan culture, Dadiwan culture, pre-Qin culture, Three Kingdoms culture, grotto culture, Yixue culture of a variety of cultures of the holy land, Tianshui, because of the legend for the Tianhe water place, the so-called Yi people, on the water side, Tianshui landscape Lingxiu, The forest is dense and the ancient charm is profound.
Tianshui short rest for a few days, we went directly to the Dahe family of Jishi Pass, in the ancient town of Jishi Xiongguan, the folk customs of the simple customs, we appreciated the Baoan people, the Salar ethnic customs, the source of the Shixiongguan when Dayu controlled the water, but also the Tangbo ancient road must pass through, I and Dazui for the first time in our lives to cross the Yellow River, board the boat and landing, the two of them were miserable, vomiting the sky dark.
Entering Qinghai, the terrain is higher, and the air has become much thinner, but fortunately, we have experienced in Xinjiang before, and our bodies are all made of iron and steel, and we can adapt quickly.
After another half a month of trekking, we finally arrived at Ngoling Lake and Zhaling Lake, the sister lakes at the source of the Yellow River, which are also our temporary foothold, our office is located in Maduo County, and then radiate to the surroundings to find the ancient spirit clan who have disappeared.
In a small town called Tsowagashi, I and Dazui casually found each other to stay, nearly a month of travel, already sleepy, Dazui lazily lying on a big bed, began to fantasize about those treasures.
I said to Dazui: "Back then, in Ngoling Lake and Zhaling Lake, our beautiful, generous and knowledgeable Princess Wencheng was married here" I was about to feel it, but Dazui interrupted me stiffly.
"The wind and horses and cows are not related, and I have a bird relationship, I don't know who Princess Wencheng is, and I am not a son-in-law, you tell me that this is a fart, Lao Tzu only cares about those unborn Ming weapons"
It's really speechless, it's terrible to be uneducated
I said to Big Mouth: "Let's take a good rest first, we will set off tomorrow, and I will also inquire about some news about the Gu Clan along the way, in fact, it is the Gu Ling Clan, it seems that things are not as difficult as imagined"
At the foot of the mountain are piles of stones hung with various colored bands, and I don't know what the name is, the big mouth is interested in buying two white hata, which are wrapped around the neck like a scarf, and can attract a lot of disdain whenever you go to a place, especially those in the original Tibetan concentration areas.
I said, "What are you calling this nondescript thing, wearing Mongolian leather boots, wearing Tibetan Hada around your neck, and speaking with an authentic Shaanxi accent, it's like a bird's song and a fragrance of flowers."
Big mouth said: "Lao Cui, you don't understand this, this is called following the local customs, and being familiar with the common people, which is conducive to our rooting and development here."
Just when Dazui was still poor, there were a few very dilapidated houses in front of him, which seemed to be dilapidated and could not be broken anymore, as if he had just passed through the smoke of gunpowder, I told Dazui to go over and see, the people who lived in the old houses were generally people with history, maybe from them we could know some clues about the ancient spirit clan.
The door to receive us was an old man who thought he was close to old age, and he shouted crappily, so that we could understand one or two, and the general meaning was that anyway, the ancient spirit clan may add up to less than a thousand people now, they have no fixed residence, they live with the water, and they can find their shadows where there is water.
Maybe? Only a thousand?
Farewell to the old man, we didn't go for half a day to find a local herdsman, under the persuasion of the mother-in-law, rented his big car, and hired a twelve or thirteen-year-old doll as a driver, this doll is called Brother Ga, a black and not slippery little baby, and the big mouth has not been to school, because the family has no money, when he was seven years old, he came out to help others, earn a little money or food and fur, Brother Ga said that he often deals with all kinds of people, so he can say several words, It was also very pleasant to communicate with us, and what made us excited was that he had been in contact with the ancient spirit people, and he also understood the living habits of the ancient spirit people, and said that he could help us find it.
Sitting on the trembling cart, the horse gallops at the foot of the mountain, occasionally the smoke rises, here is simply a paradise on earth, the white clouds are against the overhead, the green grass is boundless, and the twists and turns of a blue water belt in the distance make people feel refreshed.
Big Mouth said, "Brother Ga, are you sure that the Gu Ling Clan is on the hillside in front?" You won't be scolding us, will you? ”
Ga Ge, who was sitting behind the horse's buttocks, looked innocent and leisurely, and did not look back, only a look of isolation in his eyes.
Brother Ga said: "Brother Zui, why did you change my name, can I protest?" Let's talk about a little ancient spirit clan, little brother, I can smell it with my eyes closed, you underestimate our ability."
Anyway, I couldn't interject, so I quietly listened to the two of them talking, feeling that this was also a mood, it was rare that there was no shadow of those underground royal tombs in my head, I was at ease, holding a cowhide wine jug along the way, eating dried beef in a chic manner, it was simply a fairy life, if only I could go on like this for the rest of my life.
I only heard the big mouth say: "Your parents will really name you, you can take advantage of others wherever you go, Brother Ga, you said that you are a big child, and you are a brother everywhere, is it appropriate?" ”
Brother Ga said: "Okay, don't be poor with you, see it, the hillside with trees in front of you is now the largest village of the Guling Clan, little brother, I have successfully completed the task, ask for a reward."
Is it there? So fast? I haven't enjoyed enough yet, I feel like the car stopped in the blink of an eye, I raised my eyes and looked in the direction of Ga Ge's finger, straight into the clouds at the foot of the mountain, a green shade, three by two white yurt lying there quietly, it seems very peaceful and quiet.
"Brother Ga," I said to Big Mouth, jumped off the big cart and excitedly went up the stream.
"Two big brothers, take care all the way, don't let the sisters of the Guling clan leave you as sons-in-law, maybe your blood is very important to them"
Ga Ge's voice gradually faded away, and I thought about his words as I walked, why did the Ancients be interested in our blood? And are they short of men?
I pulled the tightly wrapped book out of my bosom and walked towards a tall yurt.
