Jiang Li looked at the skull of the Queen Mother of the West and immediately found the direction, she said that walking in the direction of the Queen Mother of the West was to follow the flow of the river.

Although the fat brother and I were skeptical of the history in her mouth, we had no objection to the direction she was discerning, and walked in the direction where the skull was facing.

During the walk, the face of that skull still lingered in my mind, if she was really the Queen Mother of the West, then this face was really ugly before her death, it was not an exaggeration to say that it was a monster with a blue face and fangs, how could people follow this kind of monster and call it a god? Then it's up to Jiang Li to explain. I guess that the aesthetics of the ancients would not be so heavy, if it weren't for the special ability of this Queen Mother of the West, she would definitely not be commensurate with God.

The fat brother, who has always been good at mobilizing the atmosphere, bowed his head and remained silent along the way, not knowing what he was thinking, as if he was mindlessly appreciating the changes in the hedgehog group.

Jiang Li's expression was stern, and his eyes were blank and he followed us, as if he remembered some sad past, and he didn't say anything.

In order to alleviate the embarrassing atmosphere, I made up a limerick poem again: "Tiankeng met the Queen Mother of the West, and the hedgehog pointed out the way in the array, I don't know what the secret is, and I provoke Jiang Li's eyes." ”

When the fat brother heard this, he complained: "Can you speak human words?" What female hedgehog's? I didn't understand a word. ”

Jiang Li was pulled back from my distraction, looked at me and said with a faint smile: "Isn't it quite literate, it seems that going to my house to be a son-in-law is really a bit reliable." ”

How could the fat brother miss this good opportunity to ridicule me, and hurriedly followed Jiang Li and said: "Yes, yes, Uncle Lori Ai, you two are really a good match, Lu Shan and Zhou Tongtong are definitely not your opponents." ”

Jiang Li asked the fat brother suspiciously: "Who are Lu Shan and Zhou Tongtong?" ”

I couldn't bear to listen to the fat brother say it again, so I preemptively said: "Those are all our good friends, very nice girls, and I will introduce you to you when I go out." ”

Jiang Li was happy at once, and said happily: "Okay, okay, I didn't have any friends originally, just the two of you, it's best to have a few more." ”

Hearing her say this, I feel really comfortable, it seems that unconsciously, Jiang Li has regarded the two of us as friends. Indeed, in this place where no bird can fly in, the emotion of three people relying on each other is easy to quickly sublimate. Comrades-in-arms who share life and death, not to mention the feelings of ordinary friends, can be expressed clearly? Although we don't get along very well, we unconsciously rely on each other in the stumbling and stumbling. As a big brother, I secretly worked hard in my heart to bring Jiang Li out of here safely.

As the pace quickened, we quickly walked out of the hedgehog herd, and not far in front of the hedgehog herd, this flat high ground, also came to an end, and the sound of the river flowing was heard in front of us.

Jiang Li happily ran to the edge of the high ground, and when he saw that the river was flowing out again, he beckoned the two of us to hurry over while jumping.

When she jumped, I felt the ground under my feet tremble a little, and it seemed that this high ground we stepped on was indeed a huge stone slab that could be moved.

We sat on the edge of the highlands, resting cross-legged, while Jiang Li put his feet into the river and let the flowing river wash away.

I asked Jiang Li: "Why don't you wear shoes all the way, doesn't it hurt to walk barefoot?" ”

Jiang Li smiled and said: "It doesn't hurt, I have been running barefoot in the village since I was a child, and I am not used to wearing shoes. ”

I'm still very puzzled, Guangxi is not only a mountain and a river here, her parents are also relieved enough, so they let their daughter out like this, and came to such a strange place, what mysterious things to do, no matter how big the matter is, their daughter's life is important? If she was shorter, she would have to have the police send her back to buy a train ticket.

I didn't want to inquire directly about her family, so I asked her the question she just asked, hoping to get some information from it. I tapped Jiang Li on the shoulder and asked, "Didn't you say that it was the Queen Mother of the West?" Tell us about it. Let me hear what is the difference between your history and our legends. ”

Jiang Li, who was originally very happy, immediately lowered her head when she heard my question, and as if she didn't want to mention the painful memory, she told us the history she said.

The Queen Mother of the West in Jiang Li's mouth is a beautiful and intelligent girl who lives in the same tribe as Chi You. Because of their hard work, the gods favored them very much.

One day, a goddess came down from the sky, and her arrival shook the whole tribe, and the leaders of the tribe said that this goddess was the creator Nuwa Niangniang. Nuwa Niangniang taught the people of the Chiyou tribe how to plow the fields, how to spin and weave, and also taught them a lot of cultural knowledge.

On the 100th day of Nuwa's arrival, a few dishonest people quietly stole the medicine that Nuwa Niangniang put in the box and distributed it to the tribesmen, saying that they could go to heaven and earth and live forever. The Queen Mother of the West also got a grain and ate it. But it didn't take long for these clansmen to mutate and grow into all kinds of monsters, including the Queen Mother of the West, and from beautiful women to extremely ugly monsters. One of them became very powerful and became the new leader of the tribe, and he was Chiyou.

They thought that they had the same ability as gods, so they no longer respected Nuwa, and Chiyou also wanted to capture Nuwa as his wife, and Nuwa Niangniang used the divine stone in the sky to deter Chiyou, so that she escaped the pursuit of Chiyou's army and disappeared from it.

Because of their divine powers, the Chiyou army began to burn and loot other tribes, wanting to rule over all the human race.

The Queen Mother of the West was kind-hearted and unwilling to be with Chi You, so she escaped from the tribe and walked westward, until she finally came to a place where there were no people and rare birds and beasts everywhere. She used the knowledge taught to them by Nuwa, wanted to make a reductive medicine, turned herself back, and made those animals real, so she created a lot of strange monsters, and some people who fled were also made into strange appearances by her, these people and beasts were very obedient to the Queen Mother of the West, so she established her own kingdom and called herself the Queen Mother of the West.

Later, there was an army, a combined army of various tribes, and the Yellow Emperor was the leader of this army, and he led the people to resist the Chiyou army.

When the Queen Mother of the West heard that she also wanted to join them, she sent her subordinates to send the Yellow Emperor the elixir of cultivation, and the Yellow Emperor's army swallowed the medicine that the Queen Mother of the West had tried thousands of times, enhanced her ability, and did not become a monster, and successfully defeated Chiyou.

When she wanted to celebrate the victory with the Yellow Emperor, the Yellow Emperor's army regarded her team as the remnants of Chiyou, and without listening to her explanation, they tied it in the river with iron chains, as a sacrifice, so that the river would wash away the sins of the Chiyou army forever. After the Queen Mother of the West was angry, she was extremely powerful, and the Yellow Emperor was afraid that she would not be able to trap her, so he sent an army to dig a mountain to suppress it.

I looked back in the direction of the skull. The hedgehog had blocked our way and returned to its original position, continuing to lie belly up, I suspect this is the way the hedgehog hunts, but I don't know what they eat, maybe they are lying there, waiting for the occasional droplet of water from the top of the pit, as if they were practicing diligently.

The big stone under her feet is like an oversized plate, and in the middle of the plate is the head of the Queen Mother of the West, surrounded by countless hedgehogs, and those hedgehogs don't know whether they are accompanying her or guarding here, maybe they are similar in appearance, and they are attracted here by the Queen Mother of the West. I wish I was with her.
