Chapter 005, Indigenous

At the end of the Qing Dynasty, there was discord within the imperial court, and there were frequent verbal fights between Prince Su and Prince Yan, so that two factions appeared in the court, Prince Su supported Emperor Guangxu's reform and reform, and was very dissatisfied with Prince Yan's so-called Hou Party. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info Prince Yan is ruthless. But Prince Su's official position was above him and he was helpless, and in desperation, Prince Yan decided to ally with the ambitious Yuan Shikai in order to bring down Prince Su. For a period of time, Prince Yan and Yuan Shikai often mentioned Prince Su's "reform and reform" in front of the Empress Dowager Longyu, and Prince Su had a fierce quarrel with Prince Yuan Shikai and Prince Yan after knowing about it.

Yuan Shikai and Japan, Taizuo Jiang Mujiro have been in correspondence, they violated the border several times, and Prince Su led troops to attack,

Yuan Shikai knew that Jiang Muci wolf hated Prince Su very much, so he wanted to kill Prince Su by the hand of Japan, until the revolution was suppressed in 1910, Sun Yat-sen secretly met with Yuan Shikai in order to overthrow the feudal imperial system, in 1911 the Xinhai Revolution broke out, Yuan Shikai became the president, Prince Su knew about it, and sent General Wang to return the letter overnight, but it was still a step too late, Prince Su was empty, General Wang raised his sword and asked the sky, why do you treat my prince like this When he was about to kill himself, there was a faint cry in the house. When General Wang heard this, he rushed in and found Jin Moyu Gege in a cabinet.

And the first thing Yuan Shikai did after becoming president was to arrest Prince Su's family and the courtiers who followed him, and used the lives of Fujin and Gege to coerce Prince Su to lead troops to surrender, Prince Su could only take it, Admiral Zhang Heng, Shaobao, Liu Yue, Dutong Zhang Hua and others surrendered.

Then in order to consolidate his position, Yuan Shikai wanted to win over the Japanese, so he secretly sent all the family members and subordinates of Prince Su to Japan in exchange for his own interests. When passing through the Dirty Forest, I strayed into the Lost Forest, and was trapped in the forest for more than half a month.

A group of people appeared in the forest, only more than one meter tall, barefoot, bare upper body, cyan complexion, long ears, holding a thin bamboo tube that would blow out poisonous gas, and walking extremely fast.

The general on horseback rode back and shouted: "It's not good, it's the natives who are fast.. Run...," he shouted, and fired a shot at the native, whether he hit it or not, and whipped the horse's ass a few times, turned around and ran.

In an instant, the field was in chaos, the natives moved extremely fast, and the air was filled with poison with a cup of tea, and even the horses were paralyzed and fell to the ground.

"Ahem...."Prince Su slowly woke up, pressed his temple, and found that he had been locked in a cave, the cave was in the shape of a gourd, and the cave was divided into three layers, the first floor was the sacrificial hall, and the sacrificial hall was about 900 meters wide. There are three large bronze sticks in the middle of the altar, which protrude directly out of the cave and through the woods, with no end in sight. There is a pool more than 30 meters wide next to the copper pillar, and a blood-red liquid appears in the pool, and one or two bubbles emerge from time to time, and a pinch of white smoke comes out after bursting.

There are four caves on the left side of the second layer guarded by indigenous guards, which are inhabited by patriarchs, wizards, and Gu masters, and on the right are lowly natives, with twenty or thirty holes of all sizes, each hole can accommodate forty people, and the third layer is a place where prey is kept, with dozens of holes large and small.

At this time, a man wearing a big black robe and a skull necklace around his neck came out, slowly ascended to the stone platform seven or eight meters high, looked at his clansmen, and then raised the half-curved battle in his hand, "This year, my Gu Master will hold a ceremony to worship the heavens, and I am honored to climb this stone platform - today is also our once every ten years Gu Worm Ceremony, we must always be vigilant, those alien races that are eyeing each other." ”

The natives below kept shouting, "Kill them, kill them." "Gu Master waved his hand to stop, now bring our prey up."

The prince stood behind Prince Su and asked suspiciously, "What are they doing here?" Prince Su looked at the Gu Master on the stone platform, "This should be some kind of heaven sacrifice ceremony, usually this kind of heaven sacrifice ceremony is to use living people to sacrifice ......." ”

Before he finished speaking, he saw that four natives dragged Admiral Zhang Heng and Shaobao Liu Yue tied to the copper house. Zhang Heng's body was covered with blood, he looked up at Prince Su and laughed, "Haha...... Prince Su, I will follow you in the next life - monkey, brother, I will go first. ”

Zhang Heng and Liu Yue glanced at each other and said in unison, "Don't seek to live together, but to die together, good brothers will see you in the next life." ”

The prince's worst fears had happened, and he hadn't seen them both since he woke up.

The monkey is the trumpet of the prince, and these two are the prince's playmates since childhood, like brothers, and it is also the prince who took them to join the army, and they have experienced many ups and downs along the way, but now they have to watch them on the road with their own eyes, and their hearts are sour.

Looking at Zhang Heng and Liu Yue, he couldn't suppress the anger in his heart anymore and shouted loudly, "Don't, you brutes, let them go, you have the ability to rush at me." As he spoke, he kicked the cell door twice, and the heart-rending howl and the powerless look intersected, as if everything was so fragile.

In the next cell was Yuan Shikai's people, huddled together in panic, but the reckless general sat in the center of the cell, his eyes slightly closed, and his form was calm.

The Gu Master stood on the stone platform and waved his hand, and said: "The ceremony of sacrificing to the heavens begins" All the indigenous people knelt down and bowed to the sky, the Gu Master raised the half-moon battle in his hand, chanting a spell in his mouth, the sky suddenly thundered and flashed, and the cave was suddenly pitch black, and then the deathly silence, the silence made people's hearts panic, and after half a sound, a lightning bolt struck on the copper pillar.

"Twitter....." a creepy sound, coming from the top of the copper pillar, under the illumination of lightning, you can see vaguely, the copper pillar is crawling with dense insects, looking like cockroaches, but unlike cockroaches, there are two sickle-like barbs in front of the mouth, which looks very hard and sharp.

Prince Su looked at these insects a little distracted, his hands tightly grasped the two wooden sticks in the middle of the prison door, his expression changed greatly, and he said the words "Gu sacrifice" in shock.

(Gu art originated from the Miao people in Xiangxi and spread among women, but the purpose of Miao women raising Gu was to use Gu to save people.)

However, after hundreds of years of transmission and evolution, Gu art has spread all over the country. And each place has a different understanding of Gu, and its use is naturally different. However, it is regarded as a holy object and a kind of heavenly art here by the aborigines, which is why there is a Gu sacrifice theory.

Gu sacrifice is the most cruel of all the sacrifices, and it is also a kind of Gu sacrifice that is rarely cast, this kind of Gu sacrifice method was first used in the south of Yunnan and the west of Xinjiang.

Gu worms devour people's internal organs and reproduce extremely quickly, and the time of one pillar of incense is enough to reproduce thousands of Gu worms in the body. )

A leading insect on the copper pillar, slightly larger, kept flapping its wings in front of it, "squeaking", and then those insects quickly climbed up to Zhang Heng and Liu Yue like crazy, burrowed into their nostrils, mouths, pupils, ears, and devoured their internal organs.

Zhang Heng and Liu Yue struggled desperately, letting out a tearing scream that echoed in the cave for a long time, irritating their eardrums.

Prince Su pulled the crying prince into it and shouted majestically: "We are all soldiers, and death is our most common, but our spirit must not be succumbed to death, because we are soldiers."

This voice was enough to lift the three armies, and these words also reached the ears of General Mang, who opened his eyes and looked at this stone wall, as if he could sense that the light of justice was so dazzling.

In fact, it is fate that plays tricks on people's hearts, and General Mang joined the army because he listened to the deeds of Prince Su, so he embarked on the road of joining the army, but the world made people, and he accidentally threw himself into Yuan Shikai's door, and this is why he escorted Prince Su.

The natives below were particularly excited when they heard this tearing cry, and let out a cry of "Oh oh..." I saw that Zhang Heng and Liu Yue's stomachs were rapidly distended.

Zhang Heng broke the chain, tore open his belly with his hands, and the dense Gu worms swarmed out. Staggered a few steps. Suddenly, an unknown monster jumped out of the pool, opened its blood basin and bit Zhang Heng and dragged it into the water, a stream of blood came up, and the pool returned to calm.

At this time, the cave slowly brightened, and only a pool of blood and Liu Yue's body was left under the copper pillar.

There were also a few bugs that fell to the ground and couldn't roll over.

The prince's scattered hair fell on the pale face, and his already tired body knelt motionless in the cell, but kept shouting, "I will kill you." The voice was so helpless, Prince Su saw this scene, and the corner of his eyes was wet.

And Yu'er, who was lying in Fu Jin's arms, woke up, rubbed her eyes, looked at this strange cage, hugged Fu Jin tightly, and was very scared, "Eniang, where is this, I'm so scared." ”

Fu Jin held Yu'er's hand, "Don't be afraid, with Eniang by your side and Ama by your side, our family is finally reunited, I don't have to worry about you Ama every day and night." ”

Prince Su looked back at Yu'er's fleshy little face with a melancholy face, and couldn't help but take a deep breath, and then turned his gaze to General Wang, estimating that he would not be able to slow down for a while.

The pale face of the Empress Dowager Longyu and the soul of 30,000 soldiers shouted in Prince Su's ear, "We died so unjustly, you must avenge me," has been pestering Prince Su, "Yes, I still have national revenge unavenged, don't wait to sit here and wait for death, I still have national revenge unavenged," Prince Su, who was leaning on the stone wall, opened his eyes suddenly.

Prince Su got up and stood by the prison door, looked up at the top of the cave entrance, the hanging moon, white as jade, and sighed: "Such a beautiful scenery, but there is no sound as a companion."

General Mang knocked on the stone wall, "The prince is really Yaxing!" But I heard that the prince had another meaning. ”

"Oh," Prince Su asked curiously, "I would like to ask for advice, you have an opinion."

"Longing for peace, the people live and work in peace and contentment, drink and talk, but the world is impermanent, and life is like chess! I only wish that there will be peace in the world, this is the wish of every soldier in our hearts. ”

After hearing this, Prince Su's tears quietly fell, and he saluted with his hands to the stone wall, "May I ask Your Excellency's honorific title." ”

General Mang hurriedly knelt down and replied: "The subordinates don't dare, the subordinates' surnames are Mang, and the single name is one autumn."

"Mangqiu, when I have the opportunity, I must sing with you about wine."
