Although it was impossible to see the appearance of the figures, it was obvious that the 'ghost' was trying to take them somewhere.

Qin Zhenxin said that this is fresh, how can you meet the guiding god everywhere? When they encountered strange things in the Lop Nur Desert before, it was Binzi who led them the way, which was understandable.

But in the mountains of Yunling, which 'relatives and friends' want to lead the way?

Qin Zhen was thinking about it, but Yudong didn't hesitate at all, and said very simply, "Let's go, follow." ”

There's no way, Qin Zhen saw that even the leader said so, so just keep up. Regardless of whether the person in front of you is a human or a ghost, a demon or a god, you have to follow the past to have an answer.

In this way, after following the ghost shadow for a long time, Qin Zhen was so tired that he couldn't walk, he rested on the spot and gasped and said, "Hey, why do I think the four of us are like missing hearts?" Do you know what that is? Just run along? Maybe the road that the tiger finally led to understand was suddenly confused again! ”

Yudong didn't speak in a hurry, but took a few steps forward before saying, "No, the shadow just now is indeed a person." Not only did he not get confused, but he also took us to the junction of Ghost Gate Mountain and the Demon Lord's territory. ”

Yes?? As soon as Qin Zhen heard this, he couldn't care about getting tired, and immediately took a few steps forward to see what was going on in Yudong. He asked puzzledly, "Then if a person is like a ghost, how can he be fluttering?" Why didn't he just show up and take us there? ”

Yudong didn't pay much attention to this problem, but replied casually, "There must be a reason not to show up." Either way, it would have helped to bring us here. ”

At this time, everyone realized that the surrounding fog seemed to have gradually faded unconsciously, and the vision began to become clearer.

Qin Zhen stood beside Yudong and looked ahead. Not far away, there is a rugged mountain trail! There's a way here! That's great!

However, what is a little strange is that on the side of the road on their side, there are countless wooden stakes with unique shapes inserted densely. The number of these piles is so large that it is impossible to count.

And when you look along this winding and rugged path to the left and right, you can't see the end at a glance, and you don't know where it leads.

Qin Zhen looked at the group of wooden stakes that couldn't be seen at these two ends, and asked in surprise, "This is the boundary that Huzi said?" Why is it so weird? But don't really say it, it's really easy to recognize! What are these rows of wooden stakes for? Is it to draw a line? ”

And that's not all. They also found that in this area near the 'boundary', almost all the trees were covered with bull's heads and bones! Some of the cows still had strips of faded red cloth tied to their horns. The tattered strips of cloth swayed gently in the breeze, like hanging ropes hanging from the trunk of a tree.

In this primeval forest with towering ancient trees, the sun dappled through the dense leaves barely shone in a little light. In the quiet and mysterious atmosphere, looking at this large area of white bones hanging from the trees, Qin Zhen couldn't help but get goosebumps all over his body.

The breeze gradually rose, and the bull's head was hung alone on a stake or tree trunk, and its hollow eyes seemed to be perceiving a qiē in this quiet mountain forest. Looking around, you can feel an ancient and mysterious artistic conception.

Qin Zhen didn't want to look at these bull heads anymore, nor did he want to look at those weird wooden stakes anymore. He directly pulled up Yudong's sleeve and said, "Let's go, don't look at it!" They don't care about wildlife at all... Haven't they all heard of animal protection laws... When we go back, we must disclose the ugliness here...... But now we don't have to stop longer, after the road ahead, we will be on the territory of the Demon Lord. Victory is in sight, hurry up! ”

But no matter how Qin Zhen dragged it, Yudong just had no intention of leaving. He first looked at the bull's head hanging from the trunk of the tree, and then walked to the side of the path to look at the tall stake. After that, he simply sat down on the side of the road, as if thinking about something.

Qin Zhen was anxious when he saw it. The heart said that this gentleman doesn't know how to pick a place to rest? Even if you go to rest in the mountain of the Demon Lord! Do you have to be a maverick and rest in this pile of bones? Show off that you have the guts and courage to do so?

Just as Qin Zhen was about to step forward again and pull Yu Dong up and hurry away, Yu Dong suddenly raised his head, looked at Qin Zhen and asked, "Qin Zhen, have you heard of the legend of Wa Mountain's 'Headhunting Sacrifice Valley'?" ”

"Wa Mountain? Headhunter Sacrifice Valley? Qin Zhen was confused by Yudong's sudden jumping question.

But Gu Jie next to him came over as if he was stinking, and sang with a hippie smile, "Village and village, hey, beat the drums and gongs, Ah Wa sings a new song... What Chairman Mao said, how did the Wa people behave......"

"Shut up! You're still singing mountain songs in this place?? Aren't you afraid that the ghost will come back to you for a while? Qin Zhen impatiently stopped Gu Jie.

Gu Jie said with an aggrieved face, "The Wa Mountain that Dong Shao said is the place I sang!" ”

"Nonsense! I know this song! But he is talking about the story of the headhunter sacrifice valley! Does this have something to do with your folk songs? Ay? No, Yudong, aren't the Wa people in the Western League? It's in the southwest of Yunnan, right? Qin Zhen asked puzzled. In his impression, they have always walked on the road of northwest Yunnan. How can it be related to Wa Mountain?

Yudong seemed to have seen through Qin Zhen's thoughts, and at this time he glanced at Qin Zhen lightly, and said with disgust, "Lijiang is in the northwest of Yunnan." If we go all the way north, then we will go directly to Meili Snow Mountain. How else is it possible to be here?

We're going to the northwest of Yunnan, and the Demon Lord has to wait in the northwest? This is, of course, the Southwest! And I think there may be a lot of primitive tribes living here. ”

Qin Zhen pondered for a moment, but he also blamed himself for not distinguishing the direction. Otherwise, can he be so clearly disdainful of himself? But then again, what does that demon lord have to do with the primitive tribes of the southwest? What do the tribes have to do with these stakes?

Qin Zhen thought that one head was two big, and he simply sat next to Yudong. took a sip of water, lit a cigarette, and pulled Jiang Qi to sit down with Gu Jie. He felt that there must be a reason why Yudong stopped instead of moving forward. In this case, it is better to sit down and wait for instructions, and take a break by the way.

Yu Dong looked at the white bull heads around him and explained to them, "The so-called headhunting sacrifice is an ancient sacrificial ritual in the primitive tribe. In the tribe, the sacrificial ceremony is worshiped by the people because it can achieve the function of praying for good weather and abundant grains.

Even after entering a civilized society, there are still many ethnic groups that retain their ancient traditions. From the ancient Wuhu people and the Dian people, to the modern Wa people, the Li people, the Gaoshan people and the Lili people in Taiwan, there have been the custom of headhunting sacrifices. And these stakes are used for the head. ”

Qin Zhen listened to Yu Dong's explanation, raised his head and looked at a wooden stake beside him. The stake is very high, and below it is an ordinary wooden stake inserted deep into the ground, and at the top is a large funnel shaped made of bamboo, which is indeed very peculiar.

Qin Zhen looked at the wooden stake and asked Yu Dong, "You mean those funnel shapes on this side are used to put the head?" So why hang all the heads of the bulls on the trees? This stake is just for the sake of looking at it? It's too much of a waste of things! ”

Yu Dong chuckled meaninglessly, and then whispered, "It's not ......a waste at all," and then he turned around and pointed to the bull's head and said, "The cow's head should have been hung on the trunk of a tree." And the head that is placed in this pile...... It's a human head. Therefore, these piles are also called head piles. ”

Yu Dong finished saying this sentence slowly, but Qin Zhen almost didn't get up from the ground! He felt uncomfortable at the thought of the bloody human heads once upon a time in the funnel at the top of these wooden stakes around him! Something is wrong with the whole person! I also secretly scolded Yudong in my heart, this damn it! Can't you speak clearly in one breath? Headhunting sacrifice, just looking at this bull head full of trees, who can know what kind of head is hunting?! Of course, you will naturally think that it is a bull's head!

Gu Jie's expression also became a little unnatural, but he still pretended to be calm and said, "Dazhen, you sit down, sit down." Why are you so flustered...... What happened if you haven't seen a human head? Besides, now there's no one on it, it's just an old story...... Look at your shameful appearance......"

Qin Zhen didn't want to waste words with him, so he hurriedly asked Yu Dong what was going on.

Yu Dong turned his head sideways, looked at the wooden stakes on the side of the road that could not be seen at a glance, and said slowly, "This is a long story......
