Chapter 325: The Bronze Tree

Although there were many questions in my mind, I didn't think too much about it; After all, the Chinese nation has been up and down for 5,000 years, and all kinds of strange things can happen? And we don't necessarily have to know everything.

After going down the steps, Hu Yifei and Gao Jing walked straight to the shadow wall, and then I saw a lot of words and patterns carved on the huge shadow wall in front of me! But because it's already dark, we can't see what is written on it? And what were you drawing?

We walked around one end of the shadow wall, and finally got a clear view of the tree behind it; And when I saw the tree as it was, I was stunned!

It never occurred to me that the tree in front of me was not actually a real tree, but a bronze tree made of bronze; The roots of the bronze tree are very thick, about two meters long, but there are only nine branches on it, and on each branch stands a bronze bird, and nothing else!

"Why is there a hibiscus tree here?" The moment I saw the tree, countless pictures floated through my mind, the picture of the Fusang tree on the bronze coffin in the unknown tomb behind the village, and the picture of the Fusang tree on the coffin of the Mother Earth in the tomb of the Xixia king, after coming here, we saw a bronze Fusang tree!

What's the connection between all this? Or is it a portend? What kind of secrets are hidden inside? What does it have to do with those weird bronze branches? From the northwest to the Central Plains to the south, why are there traces of bronze branches? I vaguely felt that there must be a big secret hidden here, but I couldn't figure out what this secret was.

"Someone's coming!" At this moment, there was a sudden sound of gongs and drums in the distance, which suddenly frightened me to quickly put away my troubled thoughts, and I didn't dare to think nonsense anymore.

"Hide and see what they're going to do?" I looked at the village not far away, and a large group of people came out, all of them holding torches, and they came straight to the direction of the forbidden land, so I hurriedly beckoned Hu Yifei and Gao Jing to hide behind the bronze tree.

It wasn't long before the group came to a halt in front of the bronze tree; I saw that most of the people in the crowd were dressed in Miao costumes, and only five people were dressed differently from them.

A man who looked to be about fifty or sixty years old was wearing a black robe, and the other three men who were not much different from him were wearing a gray robe, and the other person was a woman, who was about forty years old on the surface, and her skin was very well maintained, like a beautiful young woman, and she was wearing a pale blue dress.

When he reached the bronze tree, the black-robed man stood on it; The other three men in gray and the young woman in the pale blue skirt were on either side, while those in Miao costumes stood at the back, looking a little disheveled.

"It seems that the one in the black robe should be the wizard Zhu Yan of the Gelao Ancient Clan!" Judging from their position, I probably speculated like this, after all, Zhu Qing told us before that Wizard Zhuyan was the number two person of the Gelao Ancient Clan, and he was second only to the patriarch; And this Zhuyan wizard doesn't seem to deal with them very well. But how did it not deal with it? Zhuqing didn't tell us.

After each of them stood up, the tribesmen began to bring tables, chairs and benches, and placed grains and red paper candles on them; Looking at it like this, could it be that someone wants to get married? Sure enough, after setting up a set of things, the black-robed man on it began to speak:

"Ladies and gentlemen, since our clan's Zhuqing entered the Luohua Cave a month ago, they haven't come out again! It shows that the cave god has accepted her and is willing to take our Zhuqing as his wife; So today, we want to hold a wedding celebration for our Zhuqing to celebrate Zhuqing being chosen by the cave god and becoming the wife of the cave god! But the patriarch of my clan, Zhuling, has been in poor health recently, so the third elder Zhulan will take care of this family, do you have any objections? ”

Wizard Zhuyan didn't talk too much nonsense, and in a few words, he made it clear the purpose of coming here, but it also caught our attention; Because he said that the person who is going to marry the cave god today is called Zhuqing, could it be the Zhuqing we saw in the cave? But at that time, Zhu Qing told us that she was not a Falling Flower Cave Girl, but a person who was sent by the patriarch to protect the Immortal Gu, why did she have to hold a wedding now? Or is there a second bamboo green in the ancient tribe?

"I'm against it!" At this moment, the young woman in white suddenly spoke, and her face was ugly, and she didn't know what anger she was suffering from?

"Oh? Could it be that Elder Zhulan had other objections? "After hearing Zhulan's words, although Wizard Zhuyan turned his back to us, I still saw his hand behind his back tightened, and it seemed that he was a little angry at Zhulan for suddenly disrupting the ritual.

"Wizard Zhuyan, as far as I know, the reason why my clan's Zhuqing entered the Luohua Cave is not because she is bent on marrying the cave god, but because the patriarch has a task assigned to her! Besides, even if Zhu Qing wants to marry the cave god as his wife, then this family should be the patriarch who raised her since childhood! Therefore, I think it's not too late to wait for the patriarch to decide on this wedding ceremony! ”

Zhulan's words revealed a strong reluctance and anger, which also made me sure that the object of marrying the cave god today was Zhuqing, who was still in the Falling Flower Cave and had no idea. Moreover, listening to Zhulan's words, this Zhuqing was raised by Zhu Ling, the patriarch of the ancient clan, no wonder she was talking to us in the Luohua Cave.

"Elder Zhulan has to come up with a credential when he speaks! If, according to what you said, the patriarch gave Zhuqing the task, why didn't the three elders of Zhuhai Zhuyuan and Zhusheng know? Besides, now that the patriarch is terminally ill, he can't even speak clearly, is there such a thing, and it's not your side of the story? "Wizard Zhuyan seems to be very sure about the wedding ceremony, and there is a bit of aggressiveness in his words, which suddenly makes me feel that things are not simple.

"Why don't you speak? The patriarch has always treated you well! Do you just want to watch Zhuqing die trapped in the Falling Flower Cave? After listening to Zhu Yan's words, Zhu Lan did not refute on the spot, but stared at the other elder Zhu Yuan beside her and questioned.

"I ...... I respect everyone's meaning! The elder known as Zhuyuan was questioned by Zhulan, and he was a little embarrassed at first, but after looking at Zhuyan who was standing, he immediately kicked the ball out; Although it seemed that the two were not offended, it was obvious that he still leaned on Zhuyan's side.
