Chapter Eighty-Five: The Windproof Giant
The fat man's speech has always been effective, Cha Wenbin said that he was a crow's mouth, and he said what he said. At this time, the atmosphere is already extremely depressing, and with a crow's mouth, the result can be imagined.
"Stone, go and see if there is anything you can make a torch, this fire will not last a while." The burning time of a fire fold is very short, and there is only moss in this black place except for vines. After turning around, the fat man muttered: "Only moss doesn't need sunlight, hey, something is wrong, these vines have to die without light, at least some of them must see the light, I guess there is a play, let's follow these vines to find, if it doesn't work, just dig a hole along its rhizome, dig and dig out a way." โ
"Digging?" Ye Huan sneered: "You can see how deep the roots are when you look at their size, what do you use to dig them?" Rely on your hand or the knife in your hand, when the time comes, we will die of exhaustion and starvation, and we will wait to collect your body. โ
"If you want to collect the corpse, I will also collect it for you, thanks to our young and good physical strength," the mouth is not forgiving, but things still have to be done, with some dry vines quickly made into torches, the fuel is naturally clothes, take off this one, the fat man is only left with a sweatshirt. The dry food I brought with me had long been exhausted, so I grabbed a few insects and roasted them on the fire for a while, which was fragrant. The fat man handed it to Cha Wenbin while eating: "Taste it, the chicken tastes crunchy, and the protein content is too high." โ
Cha Wenbin stopped again and again and said: "If I want to eat you, I would rather starve to death." โ
Ye Huan was also sending it to his mouth, and he persuaded: "When there was a famine in 58, even the grasshoppers in the field were eaten up, and only when they were full could they have the strength to go on the road, and young people should look like young people." Don't worry, this place is full of ghosts, and you'll be busy later. โ
"Hell?" Cha Wenbin got up suddenly, and Ye Huan beckoned: "What are you nervous about, is it normal that there is no ghost in this kind of place?" For me, the taste is quite pleasant. Different from ordinary graves, the smell is low-level, and there is a high-level ghostly aura, which needs to be felt with your heart, and your heart is too chaotic to be aware of it now. With me here, you can eat with peace of mind, and when I ask you to help, don't have the strength to keep up. โ
With him saying this, Cha Wenbin thought that it was true, that Ye Huan was cultivating the ghost Dao and the like, and he knew this subtle difference the most. Cha Wenbin was also quietly preparing when he was ashamed, drawing talismans was a laborious and laborious effort, and some military talismans and magic weapons were all prepared, and he didn't dare to slack off.
After a few of them finished resting, Ye Huan got up and said: "I'm old, I have to rest after tossing for so long, if I want to change it before, I should do something at all, the smell is very strong at the position thirty steps away from us in the southeast direction, Boy Cha followed me over to take a look." โ
The fat man said, "What about us?" โ
"Sit," Ye Huan drew a circle with stones around them, and on the dead corner of the circle, three stones were piled up in a zigzag shape, and on the top stone, he drew a talisman that Cha Wenbin had never seen before, some like skeletons. "As long as you don't get out of this circle, you won't have anything to do, stay in it honestly, don't be deceived like Tang Sanzang."
The fat man still wanted to speak, but Cha Wenbin gave him a look and said, "If you let you rest, you can continue to rest, there is nothing wrong with the big thing." โ
got up, he also hung down his back, judging from his age, Ye Huan is also in his sixties this year, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is an old man in his twilight. Because he practiced the ghost path, his body was actually not as good as the righteous path, and his bones had been deformed. There are too many ghosts to collect, and it is inevitable that they will be punished by God, and quick success always pays a price, and one of them is that there is no queen, but whoever cultivates this, the root of life is said to shrink until it loses its fertility. And maintaining a virgin body is also one of the points, so there will be gains and losses, if there is no pure yang blood, he will be eaten by the ghost qi in the morning, Rao is like this, it is just that it is more glamorous to see on the surface.
One man has a torch in his hand, and the distance of thirty paces is neither long nor short. Cha Wenbin followed him like a child, if Ye Huan gave him the feeling of disgust and evil before, then today he actually has a little sense of security. There is no eternal enemy, only eternal interests, and when danger comes, he also needs to rely on it.
The torch can illuminate only three or four meters, and then it is dark, and when a silhouette is highlighted, Cha Wenbin still thinks it is a stone or a fallen tree trunk. A green thing appeared almost at waist level with him, and when he got closer, he realized that there was a pile of moss left on the surface of the thing, which was very long, cylindrical, and had a certain slope, and the height was uneven. Ye Huan gently peeled off some of the surface moss, and gradually revealed a yellow-brown calcified object with a slightly hollow appearance, and there was an echo when he gently clasped it with his hand, which showed that this thing was hollow inside.
Looking at Ye Huan's pale face, Cha Wenbin asked, "Senior, what is this, is it a legendary dragon bone?" "The keel is the fossil of the dinosaur, in 1977, a number of dinosaur fossils were found in the northwest of Zhejiang, the leg bone is more than one meter long, and the whole body is more than 15 meters, which was a sensation. In China, which worships the dragon totem, the keel has always been a very special thing, so Cha Wenbin first thought it was a keel.
"At first, I thought it might be a keel," Ye Huan touched the thing with his hand and said, "But it has a knee here, which is more like a human, let's go ahead and see." "Further on, there were many of these strange things scattered on the ground, some large and some small, and some had broken and buried in the earth, and the easiest way to distinguish a skeleton was to find the skull, and when the answer they wanted appeared, both of them were shocked!
I don't know how to describe it, but it was a complete and huge humanoid skeleton, most of which were well preserved, and its proportions and corresponding bone positions were almost the same as those of modern humans, especially the teeth and eye sockets could tell that it was indeed a humanoid skeleton. The eye sockets alone are the size of a football, and a tooth can be slightly larger than ordinary mahjong, although they have seen the strangeness here before, but they never imagined that there will be human bones!
"It's a giant!" Ye Huan said: "It turns out that the legend is true! โ
"What legend?"
Ye Huan said: "In the "Historical Records 61 Zhou Benji", it is said that Houji's mother, Jiang Yan, had seen the footprints of giants in the wild, and she gave birth to Houji because she trampled on the footprints of giants. The same content was first seen in the "Book of Songs 61 Daya 61 Shengmin Chapter", and it also happened that you have a Jiwang temple here. And another thing is recorded in the "Historical Records 61 Confucius Family":
It is said that Wu State crusaded against Yue State, and after capturing Huiji, he got the "Bone Joint Special Car".
The people of Wu had never seen such a long bone joint, so they sent envoys to ask Confucius for teaching. When the envoy saw Confucius, he did not directly explain his intentions, but first asked Confucius: "What has the greatest bones?" Confucius said: "When Dayu summoned the gods to gather in Huiji Mountain, the Fengfeng clan was late. Dayu killed him in a fit of rage. The thigh knuckles of the Feng clan are exactly as long as the car, and this is the largest of the bones. โ
The envoy also asked about the history of the Fangfeng tribe, and Confucius told him that the tribe of the Fangfeng clan was called Wang Fu in the Shun, Xia, and Shang periods, and Changzhai (dรญ) in the Zhou period, and now they are called Daren.
The messenger asked: "How high can a man be?" Confucius replied, "Jiฤoyรกo is three feet tall, the shortest of all human beings." The tallest person is only ten times their size, even if it is the limit of human height. When the envoy Wu heard these words of Confucius, he said with infinite admiration: "You are truly a great saint! โ
Northwest Zhejiang has been the territory of the Yue country since ancient times, and this Fengfeng clan is a branch of the Wang Gang tribe, which should be not far from Huiji, which is now Shaoxing. According to legend, from the Yu Shun to the Spring and Autumn Period, there has always been a giant tribe or giant race in China, but by the time of Confucius, many people did not know about it, which shows that the development of this race is becoming less and less prosperous.
After Qin Shi Huang unified China, he ordered to collect weapons from all over the country, gather them in Xianyang to destroy, and use these bronzes to recast twelve bronze figures weighing 340,000 jin each, which is something that many people know. However, why did Qin Shi Huang suddenly remember to cast twelve bronze figures?
According to the "Hanshu 61 Five Elements Chronicles": This is because in the twenty-sixth year of Qin Shi Huang, there were twelve "adults" who appeared in Lintao. These adults are "five feet long, six feet long, and all of them are uniform." Qin Shi Huang got inspiration from the sudden appearance of the twelve "adults", so he thought of casting twelve huge bronze figures to intimidate the Quartet. โ
Ye Huan continued: "In the "History of the Road 61 Country Names", "Wu Xing Ji" was quoted: "There is a wind mountain in the west of Wuxing, and the ancient wind country is also. Wuxing is now Huzhou, which is just located in the west of Huzhou, and there is one more thing you may not know. After the Banfeng clan was killed, the blood flowed down the hillside, "the blood stained the upper and lower red", the place where the blood flowed first was called Shanghong, and the place where the blood flowed through was called Xiahong, and in history people used to call these two villages Shanghong and Xiahong! It also belongs to the ancient mythological tribe, what is the connection between them and the Feng clan, judging from the words Fengfeng and Feng alone, there must be some origin in it! โ
