But whatever the origins of this ancient and terrifying ritual, there is no doubt about its terminator.

In those days, the news was very locked. No matter what terrible things happen in this deep mountain, the outside world will not know.

It wasn't until 1964 that Lao Gu sang the song "A Wa People Sing New Songs" Tong Guò, and most people knew that there was a Wa ethnic group in China, and they began to understand Wa Mountain.

But until Chairman Mao led the people of the whole country to turn over and become the masters, the headhunting sacrifice has also continued. In October 1950, during the celebration of the first anniversary of the People's Republic of China, Chairman Mao asked the Wa people to change this custom. However, at that time, he was pulled by the head of the Wa tribe and refused without hesitation. Not only did they refuse to abolish the custom, but they also refused to replace it with other sacrifices.

There was no way, the chairman had to express his "good wishes", hoping that they could discuss it and replace this custom. To this day, China still respects the folk beliefs of ethnic minorities. It's just that the custom is terrible...... It had to be abolished.

How did this horrific custom finally be abolished? Thanks to the wisdom and experience of our predecessors!

In the Water Margin, what about the one hundred and eight generals in the heavens and the earth? The ingenious way of ultimatum guò 'Zhao'an' was defeated in one fell swoop, and it was defeated! Once upon a time, how many heroes and heroes stood up to the sky, how many ended well?

It can be seen that the trick of Zhao'an is not outdated no matter what era, and the effect is remarkable and immediate.

In this way, from the founding of New China in 49 to the end of this sacrificial custom in 59 with the treatment of Liangshan heroes. During this period, the dark cloud of 'wooden drums and human head sacrifices' permeated the body for another ten years.

Ten years before it was completely over. That kind of deep-rooted ancient folk customs, if you want to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, it is simply impossible.

According to Yudong's meaning, there must have been a large number of villagers who were dissatisfied with the way of changing the sacrificial customs, so they once again avoided the deep mountains.

Of course, it is unknown whether they avoided it first, or whether it was the demon lord who came in this mountain first. In short, looking at the countless human head piles here, you can roughly think that here, there are probably two kinds of folk customs that are gradually merging.

And Qin Zhen also understood the reason why Yudong stopped here at this time. If there are really descendants of the headhunter tribe here, then they are real 'people'! In conflict with them, ringing the bell will not work. And I don't know what their living customs are like here. Who would have thought that in addition to the Hundred Demons Demon Lord, there were also ancient clans that cut off their heads as sacrifices on the periphery.

This is really a wave of unsettled, and every step of the way is hard.

Just when everyone was at a loss and hesitating how to move on. In the distance, there was a crisp ringing sound!!

The four of them suddenly looked like students who had been caught sleeping by the teacher, and they instantly straightened their backs and sat straight! Listen to the ringing from far and near! Although he had never heard the ringing of the ghost bell, Qin Zhen faintly felt in his heart that the bell was the sound of the Demon Lord's ghost bell!

After listening for a while, Qin Zhen whispered a little helplessly, "Are we the ones who met the Demon Lord?" Yudong, hurry up and ring the bell! Sue him, we are our own people...... Ay! This can't communicate, it's really a desperate person! ”

Yudong didn't make any moves, just stared in the direction where the bell came from. Gu Jie stood up at this time, patted his chest and said proudly, "Brothers, this time let you see how powerful my old Gu is!" The scorpion lifted the curtain--- I want to show his little hand! Sensei! It's up to me! I'm going to go and talk to him. ”

"W-What is it?" Qin Zhen asked as if he didn't hear clearly.

"Ditch flow, ditch flow! Communication, exchange. Got it? Eh, big earthquake, buddy kind to remind you. It doesn't matter if your mind is empty, just don't get into the water. Gu Jie said with a serious face.

As soon as Qin Zhen was about to stand up and get angry, Yudong stood up first and stopped Gu Jie and said, "Don't be careless, this place is not a place to play." We don't know who's coming, you can't go up and talk to them! ”

Just when Yu Dong was very worried and persuaded Gu Jie, a figure with a hat appeared in their field of vision.

This man looks like a man in his mid-40s. He wears a hat on his head, a cloth coat, dark skin, and straw sandals under his feet. There is a bamboo basket for collecting medicine on his back, and the style is similar to that of Huzi before.

He shook a copper bell in his right hand, and hummed a small song that Qin Zhen and the others couldn't understand softly in his mouth. Unhurriedly, he walked towards them.

Gu Jie said to Yu Dong in a low voice at this time, "Dong Shao, have you seen it?" Mountain and wild medicine farmers, it's not the Gu seedlings you said! ”

"Then why does he have a bell?" Qin Zhen spoke for Yu Dong first.

Gu Jie glared at Qin Zhen and said, "People shuttle between these mountains all year round, and it's normal to have a pass!" And I don't think the Demon Lord is blindly inhumane. Huzi broke into this mountain when he was a child, didn't he not kill the killer? This at least proves that he still cares for the local people. ”

It is undeniable that what Lao Gu said is very reasonable. And it's really rare that he can analyze the Tao so much. Even Yu Dong began to hesitate about Lao Gu's mention.

By this moment, the mountain man had come to a place not far from the four of them and stood still. He stopped the brass bell shaking in his hand, and also paused the little song in his mouth, and looked at the four of them with a wary and suspicious expression.

Qin Zhenxin said, this is going to be bad! If you don't say anything, it will only make the other party more suspicious! Generate stronger hostility!

At this moment, Lao Gu grabbed the bell in Yudong's hand and shook it too! Not only did he walk towards the mountain people with a meteor rattling bell, but he also hummed as if he was singing something.

After listening carefully to two sentences, Qin Zhen finally heard what Lao Gu was humming--- "The king sent me to patrol the mountain, and after patrolling the South Mountain and the North Mountain...... "After hearing it, Qin Zhen didn't know what to say!" Just the two sentences that he hummed at him, there were not many deaths! It's a trick!

Yu Dong and Jiang Qi could only stare at Lao Gu and the mountain people's every move with a vigilant face at this time! Because at this time, they can no longer rush up to stop Lao Gu. After all, they are a few big men, and they all rushed over all at once, even if there is no malice, people will misunderstand that there is malice.

I saw Lao Gu shaking the copper bell in his hand, and walked in front of the mountain people. While pointing to the bell, his eyebrows fluttered and he said something that Qin Zhen and they couldn't understand.

Qin Zhen still wondered in his heart! Yo ho? When did this kid become so gifted with languages? It's only been a few days since you learned to speak Hmong? Did he memorize everything on that little note?

The most unexpected thing for them, and the most amazing thing, was that the mountain people even accosted him!

The mountain man seemed to be quite curious and looked at the copper bell in Gu Jie's hand, then at the copper bell in his hand, and then chattered a lot.

Lao Gu was not idle, as soon as the mountain man finished speaking, he continued to talk a lot! The two of them can be said to have a fun chat, quite lively! You have something to say, I have something to say!

This was originally a gratifying phenomenon, but gradually, Qin Zhen was a little unhappy.

Because the two of them have been chatting for a long time, it stands to reason that they should be quite 'familiar'. Why are the mountain people more anxious the more they talk?

Lao Gu's face didn't change, but the mountain people on the opposite side had come down! Love xù is also getting more and more excited and irritable!

Qin Zhen and Yu Dong glanced at each other, and their hearts were finished! Gu Jie, this gentleman, went to express his friendliness, but it didn't succeed! As a result, the talk collapsed!

Just when Yudong just wanted to step forward! The mountain man wiped the sweat from his head, sighed extremely tiredly, and said, "You better speak in the language you can speak, okay?" Let's talk in Chinese......"

After listening to the words of the mountain people, Qin Zhen almost vomited blood and died!! Dare to love the two of them just now, you and I said so lively, no one understood what anyone said?! The mountain people finally became like that, also because Gu Jie insisted on talking in 'Miao language'?!

Firmament...... Who took this monster......

Lao Gu was also stunned at this moment! He probably didn't expect that this mountain man could speak Chinese! He was quite embarrassed to say this, so he had to scratch his head and smile awkwardly. Then he pointed to the copper bell in his hand and said emotionally, "You drop, I drop, bell, family drop!" ”

Qin Zhen gritted his teeth and scolded in his heart! The heart said grandson, don't die soon! Reveal your 'imperial army' background in western Yunnan, and no one will care if you are buried alive! It's like singing Japanese songs in front of the mass grave in Nanjing.
