Chapter 416: Related Tricks

Li Muyu was bored, so he found the information and rummaged through it at random, in fact, the worship of eyeballs has existed since ancient times, and there is nothing to keep some information secret, but even so, Li Muyu still did not find a legend similar to this eyeball.

The eyeball was first worshipped as a totem as a giant eye figure drawn by Sanxingdui, and the worship of the ancestors of the "longitudinal eye" silkworm cong in the form of "eye" worship is expressed.

At a certain stage in the development of human society, about the beginning of the patrilineal clan society, the secret of self-reproduction was finally discovered, so the worship of the founding gods of the race was transferred from animal and plant totems to human beings themselves, and then transferred to the ancestors who made outstanding contributions to the origin and prosperity of the race, thus giving rise to a kind of "ancestor worship".

The main object of ancestor worship in the Sanxingdui period was a mask or idol of a big-eyed giant. It should represent a deity. The mask was large and majestic, and was hung and assembled on cylindrical pillars such as large trees and "totem poles", and became one of the main deities worshiped at the time.

At the same time, a large number of "eye" ornaments and eye-themed ornaments appeared, forming a special cult of "eyes". However, in later records, it was found that what they represented was the silkworm cong, the ancestor of the Shu people, characterized by "longitudinal eyes".

However, the organization involved in Li Muyu's investigation this time is obviously not this kind of simple ancestor worship, otherwise, this incident should not have happened here, but happened in Sichuan, and even Zhang Ye They should all be Sichuan people, so it is naturally a little funny but it seems to be the case.

However, Li Muyu still saw some problems in this, and even suspected that this kind of god worship was earlier, and it was the result of a kind of worship and exploration of human beings themselves before the ancestor worship began.

But if this is the case, this inheritance should have been broken a long time ago, but why is it appearing now? And if it is really such a legend so long, then Li Muyu naturally has a chilling feeling. The things that survived from that mythical era, Li Muyu really didn't know what else he would see.

……

The train didn't travel long to the town where Li Muyu and Hu Ze got off, the name of the town was Tangzhou, although the word state was used, but the size of the whole town had nothing to do with it.

Due to the remote location here, Li Muyu and Hu Ze attracted a lot of attention when they got off the bus, because this remote place called Tangzhou does not exist in the memory of ordinary travelers. Even if a person who often runs this line asks where Tangzhou is, this person will shake his head and say that he doesn't know.

But in such a remote and small place, there are people who are really willing to take the train, which has to attract some speculation and curiosity from others, but fortunately, at the small station, the train does not stop for a long time, and after Li Muyu and Hu Ze got off, the train left with a buzz.

Li Muyu and Hu Ze stood on the platform of Tangzhou Railway Station a little dazed, it was said to be a platform, but there was no trace of the train station that Li Muyu was familiar with. Even Li Muyu, the station staff, didn't see one, and the exit of the small station was not marked, but there was no protection around it, and if you want to leave the station, just go out by yourself.

Hu Ze didn't have any comments, and walked out of the platform by himself, Li Muyu shook his head and followed Hu Ze out.

……

The town is not big, in fact, it only relies on a road to feed the surroundings, so this road has also become the main road of the town, and the rest of the town's buildings are built on this road. The town is surrounded by vast barren mountains, which are not famous, except vaguely remembering which mountain range they are an extension of. But it is this kind of unfamous place that really hides something that is not known.

Li Muyu and Hu Ze found a hotel in this town to check in, Li Muyu and Hu Ze, two obvious outsiders, attracted a lot of curiosity after entering the hotel, but the store didn't seem to have too much inquirement, just looked at Li Muyu and Hu Ze twice, and then checked in for the two.

Li Muyu and Hu Ze put their luggage in the hotel and walked out, and when they walked out, Li Muyu looked at the shopkeeper again and couldn't help but smile in his heart. In such a place, Li Muyu knew what such a small hotel would do, and the shopkeeper from the initial curiosity to the later careful observation of Li Muyu and Hu Ze's purpose of travel, all showed that the shopkeeper seemed to be interested in the luggage of the two.

However, Li Muyu and Hu Ze didn't bring anything, so naturally it was not easy to break this matter, and when they went out, especially in such a place, it was better not to provoke anything.

Speaking of this, Li Muyu couldn't help but think of a story his grandfather told him when he was a child.

It had just been liberated, and the security in the area was not good, and Li Muyu's grandfather went out on business in the army, and the place he went to was a very remote township.

At that time, there were no hotels or other places, so Li Muyu's grandfather could only rely on the villager's home when they arrived at the place. This family is a cotton farmer, and they are naturally very enthusiastic when they see people coming, especially when Li Muyu's grandfather took out a lot of food stamps and money for his fellow villagers.

Li Muyu's grandfather has always been a cautious person, so today, when his comrades-in-arms took out too many food stamps and money, he frowned slightly, although the fellow looks simple, but the fact that wealth is not revealed is summed up many years ago, this point can't help but be cautious.

That night, when Li Muyu's grandfather was sleeping, he pressed the pistol under the pillow.

The house vacated by the villagers is a partial house in the yard, the house is not big, but it can accommodate three people, Li Muyu's grandfather sleeps on the outside, closest to the window. Due to his worries during the day, Li Muyu's grandfather never slept to death.

But people naturally can't resist the attack of sleepiness in the middle of the night, especially when they are lying in bed and everything is silent, so even Li Muyu's grandfather began to be confused, but at this time of confusion, Li Muyu's grandfather heard the footsteps of someone approaching.

The vigilance of the soldier's training made Li Muyu's grandfather suddenly wake up from his sleep, Li Muyu's grandfather subconsciously reached out to touch the pistol under his pillow, but the footsteps outside the window stopped at the window and did not enter the door.

Li Muyu's grandfather didn't want to attack directly, so he had to wait for a fake sleep. But after waiting all night, it wasn't until dawn that the figure outside the window slowly left, such a strange situation made Li Muyu's grandfather feel quite strange.
