Chapter Eighty-Three: The Road That Doesn't Exist

"No, no, no way? What does that mean? Qin Zhen looked at the boss with a puzzled expression. I don't know if the boss is not very good at Chinese, but I always feel that this sentence is very awkward to listen to and say.

The boss looked at the map and whispered: "The road that does not exist is the road that does not exist." ”

Qin Zhen and Yu Dong glanced at each other, they knew that Yu Dong had not only guessed correctly that the bar inn would have an unexpected gain, but also really found the right door!

The boss was between forty and forty-five years old, tall and thin, with dark skin. He doesn't have much hair, and he doesn't dress like the owner of an inn and bar in a scenic area. Instead, he is more like an ordinary citizen of Deqin County. I saw that he stretched out his hand and touched the ancient map at this time, and then said to Yudong: "Both of you call your friends here to sit here." With that, the boss began to clean up the table directly below the map.

Yu Dong beckoned to Juntian and the others, motioning to come and sit here. Juntian smiled deeply at that time, he knew that this must be a reward.

Jun Tian didn't wear a mask when he came out at night, he probably thought it was so dark, and if he stayed outside for a while, there would be no unusual changes. And his hair can completely block half of his face. So at this moment, he was sitting opposite the boss with a smile, without the slightest abnormality, just a rare beautiful man.

Yudong and Juntian attracted the attention of many petty bourgeoisie and literary young women in the lobby of the inn. From time to time, some hot eyes would fly towards them. Qin Zhen was uncomfortable by this kind of look, so he simply pushed Yudong to the innermost. He sat next to him, and then let Lao Gu sit on the outermost...... That's a complete peace of mind.

The boss smiled and said politely: "A few people with extraordinary appearances don't look like they have traveled here or hiked." ”

Well, the vision is really spicy. As far as they look, it really doesn't look like they're tourists. Not to mention anything else, Yudong's 10,000-year-old iceberg face doesn't look like a tourist. Visitors are generally excited or curious about new things and beautiful scenery. But he's good, even if the Queen Mother and the Seven Fairies come down to accompany the wine, I'm afraid he won't even look up.

About that. Juntian is much more 'acting' than Yudong. He smiled at the boss with that trademark smile. Then he said very politely and politely: "A few of us are authors and painters, and we are here to collect style." I want to write some articles urging people not to disturb the purity of Mount Kinabalu too much. ”

After listening to Juntian's profession, Qin Zhen subconsciously turned his head to look at Lao Gu and Jiang Qi...... Do these two have a little bit of a small cell in the art of youth?

But when the boss heard this, he immediately smiled and showed surprise. He looked at them excitedly and said, "Really?!" Are you really here for this?! Do you, what you write really work? ”

Yudong and Juntian nodded at the same time. Qin Zhen felt very stunned on the side. He thought the boss was weird. Obviously, he opened an inn to do business. Why are there fewer people who want to travel? Then if no one comes, there will be no money to make?

I saw Qin Zhen's surprised gaze. The boss sighed and said: "The mountain disasters not only did not scare those people, but also turned Meili Snow Mountain into a world-famous scenic spot. The icebergs melt and the snow line recedes. If it weren't for the wrath of the mountain. He couldn't have taken so many lives! But those children were not afraid, and they still violated the gods again and again. My family has lived in Yubeng Village for generations, and this map is the experience of the old people about Mount Kinabalu. I'm hanging here to prevent those children from going down the wrong path and being devoured by the sacred mountain. ”

After listening to the boss's words, several people couldn't help but feel ashamed. Shame on those who are ignorant and do not know how to revere them. They wishfully believe that this is driving the economy of the mountain people. Don't you know that the real people of the snow-capped mountains have never needed this kind of "drive" for them to worship the sacred mountains more than money. They are all people of faith.

Without waiting for Yu Dong to ask again, the boss pointed to the map and said, "These strange lines were drawn by the ancestors. However, it was later verified that it was a route where zài did not exist at all. I was afraid that the map would interfere with people looking at the route going the wrong way, but I didn't expect that over time, these lines would fade away. If it weren't for the bright eyes of a few of you, the average person wouldn't have noticed a few shallow marks on this old map. ”

Yu Dong thought for a moment and asked, "In addition to the biggest mountain disaster that year, can you help us provide some other examples to warn the world?" Qin Zhen laughed when he heard it, and said in his heart that Yudong's acting talent is not low! Deception is very good!

The boss smiled bitterly and said, "Do you know how many victims are pushed out of Meili Snow Mountain every year?" It's like being eaten by a snowy mountain and then spitting it out. There are so many of them...... Since the people who came have not been broken, the mountain disaster has not been broken either. I can clearly explain the mountains and mountains here, but I can't explain the mountains and disasters here. No, not long ago, there were a few foreign boys buried in the mountains. ”

"Foreign?" Yu Dong narrowed his eyes and asked.

"Well, there are a lot of foreign tourists coming here. But those lads are different, just like you, I can tell at a glance that you are not here for tourism. The boss said with a smile.

This sentence made several of them very concerned. If those foreigners are not here for tourism, then for what? Isn't the lesson of the year painful enough to sneak up on the top again?

Qin Zhen immediately followed and asked, "Then do you know where the mountain disaster happened to them?" ”

The boss thought for a while and said, "I don't know where they got up the mountain or what happened to them, but the place where they were spit out was the Mingyong Glacier." ”

It's Mingyong Glacier again. This world-famous glacier is amazing, it looks like a mouth of a snow-capped mountain. You can spit out everything you swallowed from there.

Yu Dong nodded silently at this time and said, "The glacier means 'holy palace' in Tibetan, and it is a very sacred area. And it is said that the glacier is alive. ”

Yudong looked at the boss, and the boss nodded and said, "Yes, the glacier is alive." You say it's a geographical change, but we think it's a mountain god with a spirit. If nothing else, let's just say 1971, which was the middle of the Cultural Revolution. At one point, the glacier retreated to the back of the Taizi Temple, and the glacier below was gone. At that time, the people in the mountains were very scared, but as soon as the Cultural Revolution ended, the glacier came down little by little! ”

Qin Zhen's eyes widened in shock, and he looked at the boss in disbelief. This kind of thing...... Is it really that effective? In that era when people and gods were angry and unjust, this, even the glacier also had some "expression"??

Seeing that Qin Zhen didn't believe it, the boss stood up and rummaged through a pile of photos next to the map. Eventually, he found a few photos of the glacier, all with the time and date underneath. He pointed to the photos of the glaciers with very different geographical appearances and said, "Look, do you see the pattern? But whenever the country is peaceful and peaceful, the glacier itself will come back. Instead, it will retreat to the top of itself! ”

The "above" mentioned by the boss is the so-called realm of gods and Buddhas, more than 5,000 meters. And after Qin Zhen and the others saw the photos, they were really surprised to find that whenever the glacier retreats to a high place, something big will happen in the country!

"It's amazing! Meili Snow Mountain really has gods! Gu Jie bit the drink straw on the side and shouted indistinctly.

The boss smiled kindly again and said, "The gods and Buddhas are in my heart, and the gods and Buddhas are also on the karma." Yes or no, we'll all see. While the boss was talking, there were two children in the lobby clapping their hands and singing, and they seemed to be talking about some kind of ballad, which sounded strange.

So Yudong asked, "Do you know what they are talking about?" ”

The boss nodded: "This is a ballad, probably more than a year ago, there was an old man who used to recite it in this area." Over time, it was learned by the children. ”

"What's the whole song?" Juntian seemed to care, too.

The boss thought about it carefully and said: "It should probably be ...... 'Heaven and heaven, underground trees, and snow-capped mountains are red and golden. Heaven and heaven, mountains and earth, see the lord of the snow-capped mountain on the 18th. Snow in the snow, mountains in the mountains, the mountain gods are in the middle of that. 'Probably that's all there is to it......"

A few people silently repeated the ballad, only to feel in the clouds. This seems to be a very ordinary nursery rhyme, but it always feels like it is not for children...... There is a sense of mystery between the lines.

At this moment, the door of the inn opened. A few more visitors entered. The boss stood up and said, "I'll go to entertain the guests first, please use them slowly." Tashi Delek. With that, it's time to greet the new guests.

The owner was really welcoming, and although he didn't provide any clues that were too useful for them, he was a nice person.

Lao Gu asked Yu Dong in a low voice at this time: "Dong Shao?" The last thing he said was, "Whoever is going to be stabbed to death?" ”

When several people heard Lao Gu's words, they all looked at the roof helplessly. In the end, Yudong explained softly: "He is talking about Tashi Delek, which means auspicious wishes." ”

"Oh!! That's what happened! Hehe, Dongshao, you still understand Tibetan? Then you can teach me two sentences! I wrote it down on a note, and it will be easy to communicate with Tibetans in the future......"

Without waiting for Lao Gu to finish speaking, Qin Zhen immediately interrupted him and said, "You're almost there!" Last time you learned Miao language, this time you learned Tibetan, last time you used Miao language to almost have a cerebral hemorrhage in Miao people, this time do you plan to kill two Tibetan compatriots in a hurry? You should rest honestly for a while, and try not to say anything if you can, if you have to...... In the words of the Miao people...... You might as well speak in your language, okay? ”

Thinking of that incident, Jiang Qi and Yu Dong also laughed. This smile made Lao Gu very embarrassed, and he said with a strong face: "That's because that mountain people's Miao language level is not very good!" In addition, I speak Miao with a little Mandarin accent, so he can't hear it! Huh? Don't go...... Eh, wait for me! (To be continued......)
