346, The Strange Customs of the Kuba Nationality (1)

As soon as Fan Shishi asked this, none of the people present could answer his words. He was left hanging there for a moment, and coughed lightly twice in embarrassment.

Wang Yang estimated that it was the first time he came here, so when he walked forward, he looked at each family's house curiously.

He was the first to go, and we all followed. The group walked to the center of the stockade, but still did not see a single person. Not to mention a single person, but not even a single fly. I walked all the way, and I also looked around, and found that even if the houses of these black seedling villages collapsed, the flowers and plants at the door were wilted, which was really weird.

The deeper I went, the more I was reminded of the picture where the old patriarch's family invited me and Fan Shou to dinner that day, although their family had no money, they lived happily. It's a shame if something happens.

"Qiqi, before you left, didn't anything unusual happen here?" After walking some distance, Fan Shou turned his head and glanced at Ma Qiqi and Zheng Yunkai.

As soon as he asked, everyone turned their attention to the two of them.

Ma Qiqi and Zheng Yunkai glanced at each other, and then they both seemed to be recalling, Ma Qiqi scratched his long curly hair, and said slowly: "It doesn't seem to be abnormal, when we left, the old patriarch's family personally sent us to the bottom of the mountain." ”

"That's true." Zheng Yunkai also nodded, and then suddenly asked Fan Shou as if he remembered something, "Brother, could it be that the local indigenous people are making trouble?" ”

The Black Miao people here have always been bullied by the local indigenous people, and Ma Qiqi lowered his head before, isn't it the reason why the local Black Miao people invited the Ruan Geqi brothers and sisters?

As soon as he said this, Fan Shou thoughtfully looked around his surroundings again and did not speak again.

Wang Yang walked to the door of a small wooden building that was half collapsed, looked around, and then seemed to suddenly find something, threw the trekking pole in his hand, squatted down, reached out and pulled out a glove from his pocket and put it on his hand, and touched the ground, and then, I saw that his gloves were stained with some light red slimy liquid, and he also leaned to the tip of his nose and sniffed it, after smelling, the heroic eyebrows were tightly twisted together, looking at him from my angle, it happened to be a side, even if it was a side, I also saw a look of surprise on his face.

When Fan Shou reached out and touched the slimy liquid, he walked to him in a few steps, and then squatted down to look at the ground, and then as if he had found something, he took out a dagger from his waist, picked up some slimy things and put them on the tip of his nose to smell them, and immediately opened his handsome eyes, "It's Zhu Xiu's mucus!" ”

Zhu Xiu?

I suddenly had a picture in my mind of being chased by Zhu Xiu in Pozhai, Zhu Xiu is the same as a loach, but the color is red, and it is many times larger than a loach, and the most disgusting thing is that it has crocodile-like teeth, and it eats whatever meat it eats, and it keeps growing up. And the baby worm has a fight.

Fan Shou said before that this is a mutated Gu worm, and Wang Yang has raised it before. However, it is not big.

"In this foreign country, how can there be Zhu Xiu? Moreover, looking at this destructive power, this Zhu Xiu is not small! When Ma Qiqi and Fan Shishi heard this, they also came over. Now it is Ma Qiqi who raises the question.

"What is Zhu Xiu?" Ruan Geqi's brother and sister didn't come closer, but Ruan Geqi couldn't help but ask.

Fan Shou and Wang Yang ignored them, but glanced at each other, and finally Fan Shou was the first to speak, "You have raised Zhu Xiu, you should know Zhu Xiu's habits best, do you think that the people in this village were killed by Zhu Xiu?" ”

As soon as I heard Fan Shou say that the people in this village might be killed by Zhu Xiu, my heart tightened and I felt extremely uncomfortable.

"I don't know if the people in this village were killed by Zhu Xiu, but I'm sure that Zhu Xiu must have haunted here, because there is slime left by Zhu Xiu everywhere." After Wang Yang said this lightly, he got up, pulled off the gloves in his hand and threw them on the ground, and looked at us, "Next, you should be careful, what Zhu Xi is best at is hiding himself and waiting for an opportunity." ”

When the Ruan Geqi brothers and sisters and Xiao Meng heard this, they naturally nodded, and then when they saw Wang Yang coming over, they all followed him and continued to walk.

But we still looked at Fan Shou, only to see that Fan Shou also took the dagger, looked up at the half-collapsed small wooden building, sighed deeply, and then turned around to leave here.

Originally, because of the call from that woman in the early morning, Fan Shou and I were arguing, and I ignored him all the way. But now, I was worried about the safety of the villagers in this village, so I couldn't help but ask Fan Shou: "Brother Shou, if we leave like this, will the villagers in this village not care?" ”

Seeing that I took the initiative to talk to him, Fan Shou's furrowed brows stretched a little, walked over to me, and said gently: "We don't know if they live or die, how do we care?" Let's go ahead and see. ”

Fan Shou's words are not unreasonable, there is no one here, even if we want to save people, we don't know where to save them, not to mention, we don't know whether they are alive or dead.

"Squeak" ......

Just as Fan Shou and I were talking, there was a sudden sound of wood breaking behind us, which made us startled and looked behind us.

I don't know if others have seen it, but when I turned my head to look over, I saw a red figure flash through the ruins of a house, and when I looked closely, there was nothing.

"Someone!" However, at this time, Ma Qiqi's voice suddenly sounded, and then her brown figure ran over there quickly to chase after her.

As soon as she went to chase, Ruan Yuduo also seemed to be unwilling to catch up, wanting to catch the man in red.

Originally, Ma Qiqi and Ruan Yuduo loved to be competitive along the way, one said that the Gu technique was high, and the other said that the head lowering technique was a stick, and the two of them often fought the method, of course, they were dissuaded by Wang Yang and Fan Shou in the end.

This will chase the man in red, and no one will let anyone, Ma Qiqi released a fire bat to chase, and Ruan Yuduo released a cloud of black mist that blocked the direction that the man in red ran over just now, wanting to block that person.

But the two of them chased for a long time, but they didn't catch anyone, and then they both came back dejected and shook their heads at us.

Fan Shou saw Ma Qiqi shaking his head, with a puzzled look on his face, "Who is this red shadow?" How did it end up here? Does he or she have anything to do with the disappearance of the villagers? ”

"Don't worry about this, we have limited time, so let's hurry first." Wang Yang didn't care about these things at all, but wanted to quickly find the headless road, and then find the tomb of the living Gu man, so this would urge us to go.

When he finished urging, he began to continue on his way. The Ruan Geqi siblings and Xiaomeng followed him. Seeing this, Fan Shou then took my hand and led us to follow. I would be guessing who the red shadow was, so I didn't break free from Fan Shou's big hand.

Led by him for a while, we walked out of the stockade, and passed by the brick bungalow where Ma Qiqi lived before, and the bungalow had nothing to do and did not collapse.

After leaving the Hei Miao village, we walked for another two or three hours on the mountain road, and after crossing a high mountain, Ruan Geqi suddenly stopped us, pointed at Ma Qiqi and Zheng Yunkai and said: "In front of the local indigenous people's village, this couple had better mask their faces, otherwise the indigenous people will recognize them as Gu masters who have taken the lead for the Black Miao people before, and it will be difficult for us to pass through their village." ”

Ma Qiqi and Zheng Yunkai were pointed out that they were not very happy at first, but after listening to his words, they felt that it made sense, but Ma Qiqi was embarrassed: "But we didn't bring a handkerchief or anything, how can we cover our faces?" ”

As soon as she said this, Ruan Geqi glanced at Xiaomeng beside her, and said a few words of Vietnamese, Xiaomeng put down the bag, opened the zipper, and took out a silk scarf that Vietnamese women usually wear from it, and then asked Fan Shou to borrow a dagger, cut the long scarf in half, and handed it to Ma Qiqi and Zheng Yunkai respectively.

The husband and wife helped each other after taking the scarf, covering their faces, revealing only a pair of eyes outside, except for those we are familiar with, who are not familiar with each other, generally do not recognize.

So, then we went down the hill and headed for a village at the bottom of the valley that was hidden in the thick jungle.

After entering this village, I found that the houses built in this village are very ingenious, they all choose a stout tree as a pillar, and then at a height of more than two meters above the ground, drive a few ground piles, the ground is nailed on some wooden strips, with banana leaves and other roofs, and the walls are made of a thin branch woven into a fishnet-like fabric, which can block some mosquitoes, rats and ants, but does not block the wind, and it should look very cool.

The climate here is humid and muggy, and if the house is not ventilated enough, it can really heat people to death.

As soon as we walked down from the mountains, into the villages of this valley, we felt no wind at all, only humidity and sweltering, and the weather became more and more irritating. I was led by Fan Shou, and I found that his palms were all sweaty, and I guess he was also hot enough. Our Gu keepers are okay, mosquitoes don't dare to approach, because they are afraid of being eaten by the Gu worms on our body. But the Ruan Geqi brothers and sisters and Xiaomeng suffered from them, mosquitoes bigger than flies, just around them, and from time to time some wild bees or something to make a scene, which annoyed them.

When Ma Qiqi saw them like this, she was ridiculing all the way, which made Ruan Yuduo scold her angrily.

This will enter the village of the indigenous people and keep cursing, "Ma Qiqi, don't be arrogant, wait for me to learn Gu art in the future, see if I don't pick your skin, let the poisonous insects bite you to death!" ”

She guessed that her voice was a little louder, and at once it alarmed the people of the village, and some sturdy men came out of the house, and some women who were washing wild animals by a stream behind the house also looked at us.

I found out that the clothes worn by the aborigines here are all sewn from rags, and I don't know if it's because they are poor and don't have fabric, or because it's because of this style of clothing. The man wears culottes sewn from rags, a small hat, a garland made of purple flower petals around his neck, and no shoes. The woman wore a rag bandeau and hip-hugging dress, a purple garland around her neck, her hair was mostly scattered, and on her right ear was a purple five-petal flower, which was very large, about the size and shape of a lily, but I did not recognize it. The woman wore a pair of slippers, which were the kind of flip-flops, but they were obviously not urban products, but handmade products. The soles are like clogs.

They looked at us with repulsive eyes, and some of the men were holding swords and bows and arrows in their hands.

Seeing this, Fan Shou pulled me into his arms, wrapped his arms around my waist, and protected me.

"Kugabaron!" As we walked on, a dark-skinned, short, concave and nostril-turned, local man jumped down from the house with a firewood knife in his hand, blocking our way, speaking in a native language I did not understand.

Originally, Fan Shou and I were at the forefront, so this man suddenly jumped down like a monkey, startled me, and hurriedly exclaimed and hugged Fan Shou tightly. Fan Shou also hugged me tightly, protecting me, and slowly moved his hand to his waist to take the dagger.

Fan Shiben was behind us, seeing this, he ran in front of us, stretched out his hand to block us, and made a protective gesture, "Master and sister be careful!" ”

As soon as Fan Shi spoke, the man squinted, and the firewood knife was aimed at Fan Shi, making an attack at any time and saying louder: "Kuga Balon! ”

As soon as he shouted, the men in the other rooms jumped down one by one and slowly gathered around us.

"What is he talking about?" At this time, Wang Yang asked Ruan Geqi beside him in a low voice.

Nguyen replied, "He's telling us to stop." ”

"Didn't they invite us before? Why don't they seem to give you face at all? Ma Qiqi glanced at the natives who came around and asked Ruan Geqi.

Ruan Geqi didn't answer her, Ruan Yuduo said impatiently: "We only met with their patriarch, and we are still in the woods outside, his people don't know us, but I know you, didn't you come here to teach them a lesson before?" ”

"At that time, I came to release Gu secretly, so it wasn't dangerous, but now, I did it openly, unless there were enough Gu worms, otherwise, so many people would really have to spend some time, and I didn't dare to guarantee that they wouldn't get hurt." When Ma Qiqi spoke, there was a little irritability in his voice.
