Chapter 81 The Huns Journey South

When the second uncle said the word "Hun Nanshu", not only me, but also Lantern Xiao and Anaduo were also a little stunned.

Lantern Xiao thought for a while and said with a smile: "Second uncle, are you teasing me, why have I never heard of it, and there is such a thing as the Huns in the south!" ”

The second uncle opened his mouth and said: "About this matter, if you are not a person who has studied history, it is difficult to know, because it does not have an official version of the information. ”

Hearing what the second uncle said, I opened my mouth and asked, "Speaking of which, this is still a wild history?" ”

The second uncle frowned, thought for a while, and then said: "I did hear about the 'Xiongnu Nanshu' matter a long time ago, but from a lot of historical materials, I have never been able to find any conclusive explanation for it, so there are many people who think that the matter of 'Xiongnu Nanshu' has never existed. However, in some ancient books that have been discovered, it is occasionally possible to find a few words about this matter. ”

I nodded, "In that case, there is still a possibility that this incident will happen due to the mutual corroboration between different ancient books." ”

Lantern Xiao asked curiously: "What does this so-called Xiongnu Nanshu mean?" What does Nanshi mean? ”

Yuan An replied: "To go south is to set foot in the south, when we synthesized the records of some ancient books, we can conclude that the matter is roughly like this, the Xiongnu once sent a team, thousands of miles across most of China, to a place called Yizhou at that time. But as for their purpose, no one knows. However, the Xiongnu acted so secretively, and the truth behind the matter may not be trivial. ”

"And how did you know for sure?" I asked.

The second uncle sighed slightly, "Here's the thing, a few years ago, Lao Yuan and I found a tomb of the general of the Western Han Dynasty at the junction of Guizhou and Guangxi. It includes a report on the local military and political situation at that time, as well as a request for instructions on some emergencies. In one of the volumes, we find such an interesting thing. ”

When the second uncle talked about this, he talked about some inverted things, and I couldn't help but peek at Anaduo and found that she didn't seem to have a too surprised expression. I think she's guessed who we really are and what we mean, I just don't know what she thinks of that.

The second uncle then told us that what we saw on the scroll was actually equivalent to a work report, about the general at that time, and in the process of another inspection, he found a group of people with strange whereabouts, although these people were dressed in Hanfu, but they spoke with a very strange accent, because the general had been on the northern border, so it was immediately heard that they had some Xiongnu accents in their speeches.

This abnormal situation immediately attracted the attention of the general, but he did not act rashly, because at that time, the Xiongnu and the Han Dynasty were relatively peaceful, and trade between the two sides was also common. However, it was never heard of the merchants of the Huns coming so far away. Therefore, the general secretly observed, despite the changes.

After surveillance, he found that the Huns did not carry out any commercial activities, but only looked around, and often went into the mountains. The general sensed that something was not quite right, so he decided to send his troops to take them down.

The general thought that with a few dozen people, it would be enough to deal with it. But unexpectedly, these Huns were extremely brave, and between the battles, the general led his troops to kill several people, but they were still surrounded by three people.

When these men left the city, they fled directly to the west. The general led his men in pursuit for several days, capturing one alive on the way, while the remaining two fled into the mountains and could no longer be found.

The general had no choice but to report the matter to the Yizhou Assassin Mansion at that time, and then the Assassin Mansion played the imperial court. The Huns, who were captured alive by the general, kept silent no matter how severely they tortured. Later, the general also gave up.

A few days later, the imperial court sent people to take away the Huns who had been captured alive, and there was no follow-up from then on.

After the second uncle finished speaking, he looked up at us, "Because we found these records, combined with the incident of the Xiongnu's southward journey, we are sure that this matter exists, and the destination of their southward journey is in the area of what is now Guizhou, Guangxi." ”

I opened my mouth and asked, "That's why you came to Guizhou to investigate this matter?" ”

The second uncle pondered for a moment, "Actually, it's not entirely because of this. If it's just because of these discoveries, we're making such a big fuss, it's really a bit of a fuss," said the second uncle who looked at Yuan An and smiled, "We are inverted, not historians, and finding the truth of history is not our purpose." However," the second uncle paused and continued: "The Huns took such a painstaking effort back then, and there must have been very considerable benefits. That's what we're for! ”

I listened to what the second uncle said. The experience of the second uncle back then played a very important role in solving the doubts in my heart. So I asked, "What about then?" ”

The second uncle continued: "Later, I investigated this matter with Lao Yuan, because Lao Yuan is too familiar here, so it is inconvenient to come forward in many things, so it is clear that I will investigate, and Lao Yuan will assist behind the scenes." Speaking of which, we have too little information in our hands, so we are making very slow progress. Until a chance encounter, we found another trace of another person in the whole incident. ”

"Who is it?" We couldn't wait to ask.

Yuan An pretended to be mysterious next to him and said, "You also know this person. ”

Yuan An's words surprised us very much, and just when we looked at the second uncle in confusion, he said softly: "This person is Xu Fu!" ”

When the second uncle said this, I couldn't help but think of the stone tablets left by Xu Fu in the second uncle's factory.

The second uncle continued: "It is also because of this that we have found a new direction, and at the same time, we have also discovered some new situations, and this matter is related to the legendary Hades!" ”

"Hades?" I've heard Yuan An say it once just now, and now I hear the second uncle mention it again, and I can't wait to know what kind of race this so-called underworld is.

"Actually, the so-called ...... of the underworld" But the second uncle was just halfway through speaking, when suddenly a guy opened the curtain of the open hood and broke in.

We who were listening intently to the second uncle's explanation were taken aback, and even Yuan An's face darkened suddenly.
