Chapter 210: Pursuit
The third master saw that there was nothing wrong with the two of us, and continued to talk about the history of the Miao people. After the Miao people had a long history and the Han people fought in the Central Plains, after two tragic migrations, in addition to organizing their own people, they also had to organize brothers from other places who had recently fled to Hubei, Jiangxi, Guangdong, Guangxi and then to Guizhou, Sichuan and Yunnan. It is divided into five surnames: Wu, Long, Liao, Shi and Ma.
Liao Po is the ancestor of the Liao family. Moreover, after Tang Taizong ascended the throne, he learned the lessons of the Eastern Han Dynasty since the conquest of the Miao people by force, and changed to the strategy of "governing the Miao with Yi and Miao with Miao". And according to the number of people at that time, the size of the force.
The order of Wu, Long, Liao, Shi and Ma is stipulated to unify their tribes, so it is called "Miaotou" or "Toumiao". Although it is an allusion, it has been inherited to this day, and since then, the internal cohesion of the Miao people has collapsed. As for their original surnames, they were gradually forgotten.
But in the upper echelons of the Miao people, the origin and order of Wu, Long, Liao, Shi, and Ma are firmly engraved on the stone tablet. Among the three seedlings, the green and white seedlings each stand with two sexes, and the black seedlings have a unique surname that is the dragon. The surname Liao was originally the eldest surname among the green seedlings, and how he returned to the land of black seedlings and died, the third master also does not know.
After listening to the words of the third master, I couldn't help but admire the third master again, the nickname of these three eyes is really not covered. I complimented the third master, and the third master smiled at me vigorously. At this time, the crooked mouth and the big head are back. Crooked Mouth brings some mushrooms from the forest and food that can be baked.
And the big head doesn't know where to catch a raccoon. The taste of this raccoon dog is extremely delicious, a rare delicacy in the jungle. I asked the big head how he caught it, and the big head said that as soon as he went out, he saw this little guy stuck between two trees, and he couldn't move, so he went up and stabbed him.
I listened to it and called it cruel, who knew that the crooked mouth was indeed true: "This thing is a civet cat, when I used to dig the river, the delicacy in the water was white eel." At that time, I heard that civet cats are delicious in the mountains and white eels are delicious in the water. ”
After saying that, he picked up the raccoon with his crooked mouth and went out to disembowel. The big head lit a fire outside the hollow of the tree, and in a moment the scent of the civet cat wafted in. My compassionate heart was blown out of the sky by this fragrance. A few of us gathered around the fire, and in a moment the raccoon was eaten and only its skeleton remained.
By the time we finished eating, the sky had slowly come down. The big head and crooked mouth disposed of the leftovers we had eaten, and the third master and I continued to go back to the tree hole and continue to discuss how to act tonight.
I asked the third master, "Third master, do you think we can find that location?" ”
The third master said: "I feel that things are strange, I feel that according to a Miao woman, I don't tell you the truth. ”
Hearing this, Crooked Mouth and Big Head also walked in, and the three of us looked puzzled.
The third master continued: "I feel that there must be a way to enter the place where the Miao Village Immortal died, but it is definitely not recorded behind the boulder. If it is recorded behind some boulder, then the mysterious organization is going to hold that leader hostage, just come and take pictures. After going back to study, a group of people came and dragged the ancient corpse away overnight. ”
As soon as we heard that it was indeed reasonable, then the third master said: "That woman's goal should also be the dragon pattern knife, and she will crook her mouth if she follows your purpose." Later, he came back with a crooked mouth and said that the dragon knife was lost, and you had no value to that woman. "It does make sense for the third master to say this, and I agree with it very much.
But the big head would never listen to the third master's explanation, and sure enough, the big head said: "Third master, people's hearts can't always be so dark." ”
When the third master heard this, he smiled and said, "There is no darkness here, it is not dark, it is the relationship of exploitation." The big head was stunned when he heard this, and he didn't say anything more.
Crooked mouth, he hurriedly explained: "What we are talking about now is speculation, and there is no real evidence. Now our mission is not to find the woman, but to find the place where the immortal died. ”
I'm also going to play the round. Before I could speak, the big head suddenly said, "There's movement outside." One sentence mobilized all our nerves, and we did not speak, but listened quietly. Sure enough, there was some movement outside, but the sound was not loud, and there should not be many people. A few of us took out the guys, crooked our mouths and rushed out, and the big heads followed.
When I came out with the third master, the big head and the crooked mouth were lying behind a bush to watch, and while looking at me, I heard the big head muttering: "It's a refinement, it's really a refinement." "It looks like it's looking at something strange.
There were two people there, their eyes straight and indescribably weird. We also went over with the third master to take a look, and it turned out to be the blue-eyed white ape. It turned out that just now the big head and crooked mouth, afraid that our whereabouts would be seen, put out the fire. Bury the skeletons and debris we ate in the soil.
Now the white ape was digging it out of the dirt. What was even more surprising was that the white ape was also carrying a green one-shoulder military backpack crossbody. The brute gnawed on the bones we had eaten as he pulled out a silver flask from his military backpack. I also opened the lid of the pot decently and drank it.
In that way, the roots don't look like a white ape, and they are delicious drunkards. After the white ape finished drinking, he put the flask into the military backpack. Crooked his mouth and sharp eyes, he saw the dragon pattern knife in the backpack at a glance. A nameless fire immediately rose up, and the heart said: Sure enough, it was me, you beast, who was plotting against me.
The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, holding a knife in his hand, and rushing out with a flying body. The white ape reacted very quickly, in fact, the crooked mouth was not far from him at that time, and it should be able to cut it with the crooked mouth. But the white ape is a monkey after all, and that reaction speed is beyond the limit of humans.
It was still gnawing on the bones, turning its head to see that its crooked mouth had arrived, and its feet flew up three feet high. Crooked his mouth slashed into the air, and when he looked up, he saw that the white ape was still in mid-air, and threw the knife out with his hand. The knife flashed in the night, and the white ape quickly climbed the tree. It's all in the midst of electricity.
By the time I came out of the bushes, the white ape was gone. The big head opened his mouth and said, "I said crooked mouth, you actually delayed things, if I had made a move just now, that beast would have been able to run?" ”
Crooked Mouth ignored him and went straight to the knife. He picked it up and said to us, "Chase, I'll, cut it." I didn't pay attention to planting it in his hands last time, so I have to get the noodles back. "That knife is the relic of Elder Tuigu, and we all know the ability to bleed. And the dragon knife is quite important for us first. As the woman said, without that knife, even if we found the place where Liao Po Immortal died, we couldn't do anything.
A few of us chased after the bloodstain all the way. The white ape was indeed running in blocks, and we could only follow him by watching the swing of the branches as he weaved through the woods. Fortunately, the white ape's wound from its crooked mouth was bleeding all the time. We can follow the trail of blood all the way.
At this time, the sun had already set, and a few of us took advantage of the moonlight to chase all the way. Chasing and chasing, the crooked mouth suddenly stopped chasing, and motioned for us to stop silencing. A few of us quickly stopped and slowly rushed to the front. Before we knew it, we were chasing us to the col that surrounded the lake.
And we have the clear water of the lake under our eyes. The vibration of the white ape as it shuttled through the hillside is still in full sight of us. As soon as the big head sees it, he has to continue to step forward. The crooked mouth grabbed him and raised his hand to point downward. Only then did we see that there was a tent under the white ape's run, and outside the tent there were several heavily armed soldiers discussing something next to the campfire.
The men had also clearly heard the loud sound of the white ape weaving through the woods. Several people stood up in horror and pointed their guns at the woods. In a few moments, the white ape rushed out of the woods like crazy. Several people were stunned when they saw the white ape, and then gunshots rang out. The white ape was really sensitive, dodging left and right, and no bullet could hit it.
The six soldiers swarmed up and surrounded the white ape. At this time, behind the white ape was the lake, and in front of it were six soldiers, who seemed to be able to only be captured. It spun around the ground in a hurry, and finally suddenly jumped into the lake.
The six soldiers, as well as the four of us, were amazed. Staring at the lake. After ten minutes of waiting, the white ape did not float out of the lake.
A few of us felt so strange, and the third master suddenly said: "The place where the immortals died must be in this lake." A few of us turned our heads and looked at the third master. The third master asked a few of us to go back so as not to be discovered by the six soldiers.
The three of us went back the way we came, and stopped at a towering tree halfway down the hillside. By the moonlight, the third master continued: "That kind of white ape almost takes the tomb as its home. I was hurt by a crooked mouth just now, so I must have run home. "That brute, he didn't stop all the way, and came straight to the lake. The third master deduced from this that the place where the immortals died must be in the lake.
I said, "Third Master, what you said is right. But how can the tomb be at the bottom of the lake? The corpse must not be soaked badly? The third master also shook his head, and then thought carefully.
Crooked mouth suddenly spoke: "Those soldiers may know how to get to that tomb?" We looked at the crooked mouth together, and the crooked mouth said again: "The backpack that the white ape was carrying just now should be the same as those soldiers." But at a cursory glance just now, those military roots were not covered in shoulder bags. So it must have been someone who came before, and entered the tomb, maybe died in the tomb. ”
"So that edging fell into the hands of the white ape?" Big Head said
