Chapter 395: The Legend of the Savages
Li You is not interested in the black history of Qingliao Village. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info But for many things in the Holy Mountain, Ma Lin also knows what it is, and Li You doesn't know much useful information. But the only thing that was certain was that the location of the Holy Mountain and the tomb of Emperor Yan that he was looking for was almost identical. This can be judged. There should be some connection between Emperor Yan and the Holy Mountain.
However, when he heard that there were gods entrenched on the holy mountain, Li You's heart was also awe-inspiring. Li You didn't think it was possible for Emperor Yan to survive so far, so that god was probably the source creature in Chi You's mouth or a totem god like Chi You and Emperor Yan. In short, it's not a master to mess with. You have to be mentally minded and deal with it carefully.
Thinking of this, Li You began to miss Chiyou again. If Chi You is here, even if Emperor Yan is alive, he will have the courage to face it directly, but in the face of gods or source creatures, Li You does not have much confidence. At this time, the Yin Fu was in a dormant period, and it was very difficult to rely on his own strength and defeat the existence of the same level as Chi You. was able to fight a draw with Chi You at the beginning, but Chi You occupied Xu Fenghu's body and could not exert his original strength.
What surprised Li You was that there was not only one way into the mountain. Qingliaozhai has taken up a few shortcuts for me, and of course, shortcuts are often synonymous with danger. However, after fully assessing the danger, Li You still decided to choose a shortcut. Because by taking shortcuts, you can save at least half of your time, or even more.
The entrance to the shortcut is hidden in the belly of the mountain. Those ventilation openings that extend in all directions to the distance, several of which are the secret passages to leave the mountainside, these secret passages are prepared for the day when a strong enemy attacks Qingliao Village, and after the fall of the cottage, the villagers will escape the way. One of these escape routes was five or six miles long, which actually almost ran through the mountain range where they were, and when they got out, there was a winding river. The source of the river, Marin, is also unknown.
In fact, Qingliao Village has been camped here for many years, and it is not that it has not explored where the source of the river is. It's just that the efforts of several generations have been in vain. It is only clear that the river eventually divides into dozens of streams and flows into the Yangtze River. And the source is farther away from the holy mountain, and it seems to be a spring gushing from the ground.
After leaving the secret passage, Li You saw a few small sampans scattered by the river. This is the fishing boat of Qingliao Village, which is usually used for fishing. The fishing boats were too dilapidated and cramped to accommodate the expanded fleet. Just tracing upstream along the river beach to reach the vicinity of the holy mountain, this is the main purpose.
Li You sat comfortably on the sliding pole carried by the two villagers and moved forward. The river beach is not as steep as the mountains outside, and this treatment can still be enjoyed. Anyway, he extorted fifty sturdy villagers from Marin as coolies, so Li You tried his best to save his strength. It's just that when he wanted Tian Chun and the ink scholars to do the same, they were unanimously refused.
For the Mo scholars, if they can walk, they will not ride a car or horse, and if they can walk barefoot without wearing shoes, they will live an ascetic life, and Li You has tried his best to correct some of their concepts, but in terms of personal practice, the Mo scholars often listen to his teachings with the left ear, and the right ear leaks them. If it weren't for Li You's resolute enforcement, the ink master would even have stripped off the iron boots under his feet and walked barefoot to restore the ascetic nature of the ink master.
For something like the ink master that had long been ingrained, Li You also knew that it was extremely impossible for them to change immediately, so he went with them.
"This is the treatment that the master should get" Sun Buchang followed Li You's side and sighed Li You's previous hardships, while reprimanding the strong man with the sliding rod from time to time, asking them to be careful, and even showed an expression on his face, how do you all work, as if he wanted to change him to work by himself.
Li You suspected that Sun would not change his noise, and after enduring it for a while, he drove him to the back and asked him and Mo Fangyuan to supervise the strong men drawn from the Qingliao Village. With the addition of this group of people, the burden of the previously recruited migrant workers has been reduced a lot, and even some unimportant tools on the ink artists have been borne by them. More than a dozen livestock were taken from the village, and although they walked in the mountains, on the whole, no one felt much tiredness. Even the people who carried Li You and the injured Jiang Yan Zhuangding, who arranged the rotation in about two quarters of an hour, were relatively easy.
Without angering Li You, Li You is very normal, and even sees the people of this era with the mentality of a modern person. If it weren't for Qingliao Village touching his reverse scales, he wouldn't have suffered like this.
Marlin also sat on the pole. According to him, after becoming the owner of the village, he needs to pay attention to some pomp, otherwise he will be looked down upon by the villagers and the villages within the sphere of influence. Li You deeply agreed with his words, in this era, this kind of closed cottage is more hierarchical than the civilized areas outside. Moreover, Marin was also tossing his own villagers, so Li You didn't bother to pay attention to these.
According to Marin, dozens of miles up the river, there are two villages, these two villages are within the sphere of influence of Qingliao Village, and you can spend the night there. After these two villages, you will enter the depths of the real Bear Mountain, where the population is basically extinct, and there are only all kinds of strange beasts that haunt the mountains and forests. But around the holy mountain, there is also a village. The name is Nikozhai.
Nigu Village seems to be older than Qingliao Village, and they are the real guardians of the sacred mountain. Whenever outsiders approached, they would be expelled, and the means were more extreme than in Qingliao Village. However, the passage of Qingliao Village was tacitly approved by them, and in the long past, Qingliao Village and them were still neighbors, jointly guarding the safety of the holy mountain.
Later, after Qingliao Village moved out, it also had a certain connection with Nigu Village. Every year, Qingliao Village will transport some salt cloth into it and exchange some mountain medicinal materials with Nigu Village. In the vast primeval forest, many medicinal herbs or strange beasts can only be found by the people of Nigu Village. It can be said that if it were not for the behavior of Qingliao Village, it is still a question whether Nigu Village would have been able to survive in the harsh conditions of the Holy Mountain.
When it came to the matter of Nigu Village, Marin said a lot of things about Xiongshan by the way. And this place, which is called Shennongjia by Li You in his heart, Li You's greatest concern is naturally savages. Before graduating, Li You read in the newspaper that decades ago, scientists conducted a large-scale dragnet investigation in order to confirm whether there were wild people in Shennongjia, but the result was still no gain. However, according to the members of the expedition, they had a face-to-face encounter with the wild man from a distance, but there was no direct contact, let alone direct evidence.
