Qionglong Stone Shadow Chapter 44 Parasitism
His expression was full of innocence, even a little schadenfreude, but I was completely stunned, and I didn't react for a moment, and it took a second to think of pulling my leg back to see what he had done.
At first glance, I only saw my wound, there was blood, but there was no blood vessel picked, I moved, except for the pain of the wound, there was no discomfort.
I looked at him suspiciously, and he looked at me quietly, but I didn't know what the situation was, which blood vessel was broken?
Looking, he suddenly smiled slowly, very subtlely, very helpless, I was even more inexplicable, he said: "It's a joke." ”
"Jokes?"
He smiled, patted me, handed me the kettle, asked me to wash my wounds, and said to me, "Your life must be boring." ”
I slowly understood what he meant, and I didn't get angry, but I just thought it was funny, and said in my heart, what qualifications do you kid have to teach me? It doesn't necessarily matter how happy you are.
However, this time it made me have a different opinion of him, although I didn't think there was a problem with this person at first, but because our two backgrounds are too similar, although I am sure that I am such a character, but I can understand what he is most likely to be under that kind of life experience, or what kind of person he will be forced to become.
This is also the only common denominator of all the people I have met so far, whether it is the fat man, the stuffy oil bottle, or Pan Zi, the third uncle, etc., they are extremely utilitarian in doing things, not to say completely utilitarian, but they do not have the kind of "do something that has nothing to do with real life and no one can understand me" of an artist.
But Xiaohua's joke is a bit nonsensical and meaningless, and this is also the reason why I can't react at once. It shouldn't be like this. This joke made me realize that he was different from them.
Maybe it's because he's singing. This reminds me of the interesting story of the old Jiumen and the second master back then. The second master, who is a top hero and a child, may be the cutest person in Lao Jiumen.
After treating the wound, I put on countless band-aids. The whole foot looked like a postmodern work of art, and then put on his socks, and when I saw him look into the depths of the cave, I asked me to look, and when I looked at it, I found that the hair began to spread towards the hole, apparently attracted by the blood of the little flower.
I asked him what to do next, and he was afraid that his virtue would not even be convenient to move. If I didn't know what we were doing here, I'd take it upon myself to send him down the cliff first.
"During this time, we won't go in for the time being." Xiaohua rubbed the location of the wound and said, "Mother-in-law, they should have news soon." Now there's no need for us to go in, we'll take it and wait for news. ”
The iron plate at the end of this hole, I can't tell what age it is, I don't know what it is, and I don't know what the "tricky thing" Xiaohua said, but. The situation inside the cave is already clear at a glance, and there is really no need to go in again.
I remembered what the old woman said that these two teams need to work together. I don't know what kind of cooperation method it is, and I always feel uneasy in my heart.
It took another two hours for his man to come up, barely human, and startled at the sight of blood all over the ground, we told the situation and, with his help, hoisted the little flower back to the top of the cliff. After that, he went down again to prepare more medicines and goods.
A few days afterward. Life is like a birdman, in a nest on a cliff. It is only an inch in size, and there is an abyss on all sides. It can be said that you are either inactive, and if you are active, it is the strongest physical activity in the world.
Xiaohua's concentration is very good, either playing mobile games, or staring blankly at the snow-capped mountains in the distance, looking at the fairyland-like scenery on the top of the cliff, while playing Tetris has a very confused beauty, which always makes me feel unreal.
And I didn't lose to him, leaning on the cliff, the wind blowing from the heights, the whole vision, including all the green dense canopies under my feet, and in the green waves, chatting with Xiaohua about the past, in a daze, I felt like two fools waiting for Godoli. The only pain is going to the toilet. It violently destroys all the beauty, and it is always life-threatening.
During this time, the men under the cliff had to go to the nearby village once a day to confirm the news with the phone there, and there was no news for the first few days, but on the third day, a huge envelope was hoisted from under the cliff.
We took it apart and found it all paper and photographs. The first one is a photo of the fat man and the clouds and the stuffy oil bottle, the fat man is wearing a pair of shorts, and he made a golden pose by the stream that we are familiar with, the stuffy oil bottle is sitting on the stone on the side, the cloud and the fat man pose a pose, she may be wearing the eland girl dress brought to her by the fat man, and the innocence also brings out a trace of sexiness, which is very in line with the bad taste of the fat man.
At the back of the photo, the fat man wrote three words: envy.
I scolded, looked at Xiaohua in a bloody vest on one side, and said to myself, "Fuck you're on the wrong line."
Many of the remaining photos were taken when they entered the mountain, Agui was also there, it seems that they still led the team into the mountain, I saw the old woman sitting on the Luan car, alive and well a Lafayette, I couldn't help but think of Chen Pi Ah Si, don't you say that the people who fight are miserable in their old age? If these people weren't so entangled, their quality of life in their later years would definitely be higher than that of the rich.
As I went all the way, I saw them come to the mouth of the rock that I had pulled them out of, it was at the foot of the mountain, there were bushes everywhere, and it was a shame that they could find it, and all their equipment was piled up near that mouth, and the stuffy oil bottle was dressed in the clothes of the cave explorer, and seemed to be preparing to enter.
After that, there were no pictures of people, all of them were inside the cave, and if they did, they were taken by chance.
Xiaohua looked impatient, so she quickly flipped through it, until she found a photo marked with a red pen and took it out.
We saw that it was a rocky passage, the kind I had climbed out of earlier, and the color of the walls of the passage was very bleak under the flash, but we could see that the stuffy oil bottle was at the front, and he got out of the way and let the people behind him shoot what he was blocking. It turned out to be a stone slab with a circular pattern resembling a astrolabe carved in relief.
The picture was taken very clearly, and I immediately noticed. That pattern must be the end of the hole we had in the hair before. The iron plate was seen. Around the iron plate, there are also a lot of small patterns carved, and the next few photos are all about the details of those patterns.
Xiaohua looked at it and took a breath of cold air, obviously didn't understand what it meant, I asked him to turn it over, and looked at the back of the photo, and sure enough, someone wrote a line.
I saw that picture. It is immediately clear that their actions are related to our actions, and their destinations are also related to our destinations.
The sentence at the end of the photo confirms my suspicions, but it doesn't give us any more hints.
Seven hundred meters from the entrance, the first obstacle is encountered, and the key to unlocking this obstacle should be in you, and I don't know where you are. Please do your best to analyze.
It is very clearly written.
From this it can be inferred that they were in Banai, after re-entering from the crack that I had come out of the rocky mountain. Maybe with his style, Lei found the road to the ancient building in the mountains that Mrs. Huo believed, but there was an obstacle in the road, and this obstacle should be what was taken in the photo.
I couldn't tell if it was a door, or a stone wall, or even just a section of a stone. However, there is no doubt that the pattern on this should be the pattern on the iron plate. There is an intrinsic connection between the two.
If it is really as the old woman said, the other floors of Zhangjialou are in the interior of one of the rocky mountains. Well, the people who built and hid this ancient building. and the style thunder that rebuilt the ancient building, and the master who installed the iron plate on the cliff thousands of miles away, must also be inextricably linked, and the story may be equally unimaginably complex.
We sandwiched the key photos one by one on the steel bars of our "nest" and carefully observed them one by one.
I am almost certain that the relief on the stone wall is carved with an iron plate, and the round relief should be the iron plate itself.
The pattern engraved around the iron plate is worth savoring. Judging from the carving method of the relief, the relief of the entire stone wall can not be regarded as a fine product, that is to say, it has little artistic value, many lines are not even completed, this relief must be just a blank, not finely polished.
In terms of style, there are very clear characteristics of the Qing Dynasty, which should be inseparable from the style. If it is a design presided over by Style Lei, but it is a bit perfunctory, it can be seen that the purpose of this design must be more functional than decorative, it seems that this stone wall blocking the road will not be so single. Let's arrange the photos in order, starting at 12 o'clock.
The first photo of the relief was taken with a relief that has always been a strange animal.
The animal in the traditional Chinese relief, I can almost recite it, what Pixiu lynx, but this animal, but it is very rare, although it is still relatively abstract, but I can still immediately recognize it, it is a "犼".
There are two different sayings about the "Qilin" kind of things, one is the grandfather of the Qilin, the Qilin is an ancient mythical beast, but it is generally believed that the low dragon is first-class, and the "Qilin" is the ancestor of the Qilin, which takes the dragon as food and belongs to the top of the food chain. The other is considered to be a kind of "魃", that is, a very special kind of zongzi.
The "犼" in the relief is bound by a strange thing, which is connected to the iron plate relief below.
The relief in the second photograph and the first one seem to be connected together, and the whole pattern is a whole, but I can see that it is a decorative need, and there are several people, but I can see that those people do not have a right hand.
There are nine people without a right hand, there are long and close views, all * upper body, lower body is tile pants, do run away, but do not panic.
I know this well, I saw good things, I couldn't help but show off, I pointed to those people: "There is no carving, there is no trace of repeated corner repair, these people are almost carved out in one go, although so, but the dynamic body of the figures, the front and back are staggered and jumped on the wall, and the top craftsmen are in charge." Although he doesn't pay attention to it, his years of technique allow him to carve his own charm with a few knives. ”
Xiaohua's attention was not here, but she asked, "Why don't you pay attention?" ”
I said: "Ancient craftsmen are divided into two kinds, one is skillful and proficient in various engineering techniques, called the case, but this kind of people generally only make delicate small things, this kind of ugly work of polishing stones should not be done by them, and the other is what we call skilled craftsmen of pure handicrafts, these people have unique skills, but work all day long, rely on physical strength and craftsmanship to eat, this kind of people are craftsmen rather than artists, so, they will not be strict with themselves, those who can be lazy will be lazy." ”
I have just judged that the relief on this stone wall is functional, and it is also based on this that there is only one way to get the craftsman to go all out, and that is to have a difficult owner to serve.
Xiaohua nodded, motioning for me to continue looking.
The next photo, at six o'clock, is a little hard to understand, it's still a group of people, but it's obviously not the group of people who just fled, because these people have sound hands, and they have obvious clothing features. I could recognize it at a glance, it was definitely not Han Chinese.
This group of people, all with long knives in their hands, wore strange crowns. There are a lot of people, and the craftsmen use overlapping compositions here, and it is impossible to count how many people there are, but looking at their posture, it seems that they are in ambush.
I find it difficult to understand that, according to the general convention, in terms of the overall composition, all the pictures are expressing a meaning independently, but the reliefs here, three of them are connected together, but they are also very natural. It's hard to say if there are two meanings.
So that the last relief is critical, and I immediately go to see the last picture.
The relief in the last photograph was unexpected, not because the thing on the relief was unbelievable, but because there was no relief at all, but three deep holes arranged in the shape of plum blossoms.
The four main motifs, all seamlessly linked together by a large number of decorative lines, are embossed to resemble a strange clock.
Seeing this, Xiaohua raised her eyebrows at me, not knowing if he had thought of something or wanted to express any objection. Then he asked me, "What do you think?" ”
I sighed, but I still couldn't let go of these patterns, are these patterns connected, or independent? If it's connected, then, I seem to have a little bit of a brow. (To be continued)
