Chapter fifty-one, there is also a ritual
Zhou Maoyin entered the house and looked around first, although this behavior was not very polite, but Bai Zaha also felt that it didn't matter, after all, it was a guest from afar, and people were full of curiosity. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
To be honest, Bai Zaha is not particularly cold to this Zhou Maoyin, his face is full of meat, and he looks very uncomfortable, but out of politeness, he can't refuse people thousands of miles away.
A pot of hot wine was served first, and Bai Zaha first finished a bowl before saying,
"I heard that Mr. Xiao said that Mr. Zhou is an archaeologist, and the two of them were brought here by you, there is something in this forest that makes you so interested, please ask, it's okay!"
Zhou Maoyin also drank a big sip of liquor, this kind of wine is homemade, the degree is not good, a bowl of roar is sweet, not spicy, so it is not easy to get drunk, but it is easy to get drunk if you drink too much.
The reason why Zhou Maoyin drank such a big sip of wine just now was because Xiao An and they used archaeology as a reason, which made Zhou Maoyin feel a little inexplicable, and he paused to think about it before he planned to speak.
If the three people came to the forest because of the case, all this is nonsense, maybe the people in this village don't even know what the case is called, if it is explored by archaeology, people will believe more, because there are many ancient things in the forest, whether it is the primeval forest in the depths, or the prehistoric beasts in the forest, they are worth studying, so it makes sense.
However, Xiao An's kind words made him feel a little headache, so that all the actions of the village thought were around him, but because he knew something that ordinary people didn't understand, he naturally preferred to believe that he was leading the team.
Zhou Maoyin licked his mouth, tasted the sweetness of the wine, and then said,
"Don't hide it from the patriarch, it is indeed me who led the team here, because there is a large area of primeval forest here, whether it is prehistoric plants or prehistoric animal bones, it is very valuable for research, and it seems that I have heard that there have been earth-shattering battles in this forest, and it is also a restoration of history to come to investigate and collect evidence."
After saying this, Zhou Maoyin himself couldn't stand it, he didn't dare to be interested in this kind of historical problem, he was interested in it was said that there was a dragon's den in Z County, and the hole was hidden, which could be said to be known as heaven and earth, out of the metaphysics of yin and yang, he was very interested in this kind of theory, for his own academics, he could only say this.
It can't be said that they are here to investigate the case, and then he is here to explore the dragon vein, looking for some supernatural metaphysics that science cannot explain, and the people here say that they can't believe it, but they don't understand it at all.
Bai Zaha looked at Zhou Maoyin's eyes, although he didn't speak very well, but his face didn't change and his heart didn't beat, there shouldn't be any big problem, anyway, he lived in a village, even if there was any problem, it was nothing, so the emperor was far away, who could control him.
Bai Zaha's eyes showed a hint of pride, and then it dissipated and turned into soft,
"In that case, Mr. Xiao said last night that he invited us to go together, is this Mr. Zhou's own idea? Last night, Xiao and Huang have agreed that I will lead the way for you, if Mr. Zhou is unwilling, then I will not go, mainly depends on your opinion, if one person disagrees, I will not take this risk. ”
Zhou Maoyin took another sip of hot wine and smacked his mouth, this Xiao An, obviously it was his idea, it was he who handled the case, it was he who wanted the Bai patriarch to lead the way, this time it was almost pushed on his head, if it was his own idea, then everything was his own back, if it was not his own idea, it would cause Bai Zaha's suspicion, so it was difficult for him to do.
Zhou Maoyin really wants to slap himself twice now, why didn't he wake up when he drank last night, I don't know what they said and discussed, this has become his biggest mystery at present, whether he secretly discussed killing him halfway, it's hard to say, in short, it's quite scary.
Zhou Maoyin took another sip of wine, his movements were all in Bai Zaha's eyes, Zhou Maoyin paused for a while before saying,
"This is my idea, after all, this is winter, there are fewer beasts in the forest in winter, if it is summer, then the forest is more dangerous, choose this time, although it is not the best, but it is almost the best time, and we come for the first time, we don't know the mountain road in this forest, so it is also dangerous, since we meet you, then please let you take us for a ride, and then when you come back, I will thank you."
Bai Zaha squinted, what Xiao An mentioned last night was indeed to let them lead the team and then go into the depths of the forest, Zhou Maoyin was right, the forest is very dangerous, especially in summer, and in winter, as a person outside, it must be difficult to walk, so it is reasonable to make this decision, there is nothing to doubt, but at that time, Bai Zaha refused, because they still have a major ceremony that has not yet been held, and this ceremony must be held by his patriarch.
Zhou Maoyin was also forced to say this, Xiao An's decision he had to support, otherwise he couldn't stand the expenses along the way.
Bai Zaha took a sip of wine, and then said,
"In that case, I'll be happy to help you complete your research, and I'll get a few more people with us when the time comes, but this will take some time before we can go, and you will have to stay in the village for a few days."
Zhou Maoyin had some questions, bringing a few more people gave him a headache, and more about why he had to wait a few days.
"Why did Patriarch Bai wait a few more days? What did Mr. Xiao say? ”
Bai Zaha replied,
"Because there is still a grand ceremony in our village that has not been held, this ceremony must be attended by the whole village, and we can't get out of the way, so we can only ask you to wait a few more days, anyway, we have food and accommodation, and Mr. Xiao also agreed."
Zhou Maoyin nodded.
"In that case, then let it be, it's not too late to set off after your ceremony, safety first."
Bai Zaha smiled and said,
"Thank you for your understanding, let's have breakfast together!"
"Okay!"
The two had a simple breakfast together, Bai Zaha looked at Zhou Maoyin from time to time, and he felt in his heart that it was not Zhou Maoyin who was the main one, but the unfathomable Xiao An, because he would mention Mr. Xiao's opinion.
On the other side, Huang Bo had already woken up, he didn't see Zhou Maoyin, he had some questions, and after inquiry, he learned that Zhou Maoyin went to the Bai patriarch's house, and Xiao An didn't look worried, so he didn't have many doubts.
Xiao An asked him a sentence later,
"What did you say when you went out with Patriarch Bai last night?"
Huang Bomian replied without changing his color,
"It's nothing, it's just the same county town to talk about local characteristics, and then I'll be back soon, Patriarch Bai is really an enthusiastic person, it should be very comfortable these days."
Xiao An said meaningfully,
"Patriarch Bai is really an enthusiastic person, let's take a good rest these days, and set off when their ceremony is over."
Huang Bo nodded calmly, thinking that it was good that Xiao An didn't continue to ask deeply.
