Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Twins

"Wild Road? What is Wild Road? "I looked at the golden worm in Bu Jin's hand, although at this moment, the worm seemed to be dead, but its body still showed no signs of decay. My intuition told me that it should be a Gu.

Sure enough, Bu Jin held the golden worm in his hand and said to me: "This is Gu, the so-called wild way, which is also Gu, which means that those Gu makers have died, so there is no owner to become a wandering Gu worm, and now that it is dead, it should starve to death." ”

I looked at the golden bug, and although it looked golden, in fact, it still gave people an eerie and outrageous feeling. I couldn't help asking, "What kind of Gu is this?" ”

Bao Ye also came over at this time, looked at it and said: "Judging from the appearance, it looks like a golden silkworm Gu, but it is not like it at all. ”

Bu Jin nodded and said, "It's the Golden Silkworm Gu, but this Gu is not very successful." ”

I don't know what the Golden Silkworm Gu is, but listening to their tone, this should be a very powerful Gu worm, but this one Gu worm is not very successful.

Golden Silkworm Gu, as the name suggests, the Gu worm should be based on the silkworm, but the Gu worm in front of him is clearly the shape of a scorpion, if there is a shadow of a silkworm, it is at most that the insect's abdomen looks fat, and there are some silkworms.

At this time, Zhang Hefang also said: "In the ancient Shu Kingdom in ancient times, the golden silkworm Gu can be said to be a kind of Gu worm that everyone knows, but there are few people who can really make a real golden silkworm Gu, and the founding monarch of the ancient Shu country, Silkworm Cong, is one of them, some history books are sporadically recorded, saying that Silkworm Cong is good at cultivating silkworms, in fact, the so-called cultivation of silkworms here refers to the cultivation of golden silkworms. ”

"Huh?" I was surprised and said, "According to what you say, then the silkworm bush should also be a wizard?" ”

Zhang Hefang nodded and said: "Actually, in ancient times, there were many countries that were led by sorcerers at the beginning, such as Chiyou of Sanmiao Jiuli, and even Emperor Yu of the Xia Dynasty, they were all great witches of their respective tribes. And Xia Yu even invented a kind of footwork that is still thrown among wizards and circulated among wizards - Yu step. ”

I remembered a kind of zombie dance that Bu Jin would dance every time he practiced witchcraft before, could it be that the so-called Yu Bu?

Zhang Hefang continued: "Silkworm Cong is the founding monarch of the ancient Shu Kingdom, so he is likely to be a combination of secular power and divine power, just like the king of the Shang Dynasty, but, after the Silkworm Cong, the gradual separation of secular power and divine power can be said to be a historical inevitability, this situation has always been the upper hand of secular power in the Central Plains, however, in some remote countries, theocracy often occupies the mainstream, and the ancient Shu State is a special case, its secular power and divine power are almost equally important and have coexisted for thousands of years. ”

I looked at the bones of Bai Sensen on the ground, on one side were the soldiers of the secular power of the ancient Shu Kingdom, and on the other side were the priests of the ancient Shu Kingdom, and I couldn't help but look up and say to Zhang Hefang: "This is the so-called coexistence? ”

Zhang Hefang was stunned for a moment, smiled bitterly twice, and said, "At least it's evenly matched." ”

Speaking of this, I suddenly felt that something was wrong, and said: "Wait, something is wrong, didn't you say that this is the burial pit of the priests of the ancient Shu Kingdom, so how can there be secular power here?" ”

Zhang Hefang frowned and whispered, "Yes, this is also something that I have been puzzled by since just now. ”

For a moment, everyone fell silent, and no one could give a reasonable explanation. Although it is said that the people of the Nanwu Group have been guarding this place for nearly a thousand years, after all, this is the first time they have actually entered the priest's burial pit, and what is going on inside is clear to each of us.

Obviously, Bu Jin was not in the slightest interested in the discussion between us. She walked straight to the entrance of the two corridors in the stone room, where a stone statue was placed. Zhang Hefang made a silent gesture for everyone, pointed at Bu Jin, and asked us to follow.

If what Zhang Hefang said before was correct, Bu Jin was the earth imperial attendant among the six imperial attendants, and she belonged to the spirit immortal, because she was transferred from Azina's body to Long Bu Jin's body Gu, her mana was reduced a lot, and her memory also needed to be slowly restored little by little. In other words, it cannot be ruled out that Bu Jin is recovering his memory little by little when he looks at these stone statues.

Zhang Hefang walked up to Bu Jin and said, "Miss Long, what did you think of when you saw these stone statues?" ”

Bu Jin shook his head and said, "I have remembered many things, but I have never been to this place. ”

Zhang Hefang frowned, he had no choice in the face of such a situation. So, we went to look at the two statues, hoping to find some clues between the two statues to make a judgment about everything in front of us.

These two stone statues, at first glance, are human figures, but when you look closely, you don't feel like a person. Among them, the stone statue on the left, which is the side of the remains of the group of soldiers, has a small face, but the eyes are as big as the side of sunglasses, thick lips that seem to be smiling rather than smiling, no chin, and hands standing in front of the chest, in the shape of fists. The middle of the fist was empty, and it seemed that it had been grasping something in its hand before, and now, it was gone. What could it be? Is it a golden scepter? We didn't dare to speculate and turned to look at another stone statue. We couldn't help but be surprised.

If the first stone statue still looks like a human being, then the second stone statue on the right can be said to be not human at all. Although it is said that its standing posture and demeanor are no different from people, and there are facial features on its face, but when I stepped forward to take a closer look, I knew that there was only one person's appearance, and in terms of details, it was not related to people at all.

I saw that the eyes of the stone statue did not grow on the face, but protruded outward along the lower direction of the eyebrows like a crab, and protruded to about ten centimeters before two eyes grew. The nose of that thing was big and fat, and it had no nostrils, and I don't know why it was left for such a thing. On the other hand, the mouth of this thing is even more exaggerated, and when it grins, the corners of its mouth are near the root of the ear, showing a weird and exaggerated smile.

Everyone couldn't help but wonder how there was such a gap in artistic expression in the same country. Although the first stone statue looks very weird, at least it is not ostentatious, it looks a little restrained, and there is a bun on the head, which looks a little like a person from the Central Plains. On the other hand, the second stone statue, with its teeth and claws, is rough and heroic, and no matter how you look at it, it looks like an exotic culture or the culture of a minority group.

I looked at these two stone statues, and kept thinking about the history of the ancient Shu Kingdom that Professor Li Zhongkai told me before, and suddenly, a lightning bolt crossed my mind, and I seemed to understand something.

I said to everyone with sad faces, "Wait, I have a guess. ”

Zhang Hefang raised an eyebrow, obviously he was surprised that I was going to speak at this time, so he said to me: "What conjecture, tell me about it." ”

I looked at everyone's curious eyes, and I was really a little apprehensive in my heart, after all, the people in this stone room knew more than me, and I was afraid that if what I said was wrong, I would be ridiculed by everyone.

After thinking about it for a while, I thought about it and said, "You look at the two stone statues, one of them is reserved and introverted, and the other is wild and flamboyant, how can this not look like the same kind of people. I remember Professor Li Zhongkai once told me that the ancient Shu Kingdom was technically half a remnant country. At that time, there should have been some people in the interior of the ancient Chengdu Plain, although these people were not highly civilized, but after all, they were native-born aborigines, and they were likely to have their own culture and totem worship. The people who really established the ancient Shu country were not the aborigines, but the ancient Qiang people who came here from the mountains and rivers of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and they had their own beliefs and totem worship, and the later ancient Qiang people were strong and the population was sufficient, and soon assimilated the local aborigines. However, it is easy to assimilate a tribe, but it is difficult to assimilate a tribe's culture, so it is very likely that this is not a confrontation between theocracy and secular power, but between two theocracies. And these two kinds of theocracy have been indistinguishable for a long time, but there is one point, they both belong to the ancient Shu Kingdom, so after the death of the high priests of different theocracies, they will be sent here for burial, because this is the burial pit of the priests of the ancient Shu Kingdom, not the burial pit of a certain theocracy. ”
