Chapter 239: Woe and Blessing

readx;

When I woke up, I don't know how long it had been, but I didn't know when, a group of men and women came, about thirty or forty people, men, women and children were naked, and their lower bodies were either rattan grass, or tree bark, or animal skins, barefoot, surrounded by two "guests".

"What are you going to do?"

After shouting, it occurred to them that they might not understand what they were saying, and they wanted to stand up, feeling their limbs numb, and trying to gesture.

Someone laughed, but no one paid attention to her.

After a short time, the crowd flashed a hole, and an old woman with two eagle feathers on her head, also naked, came over with a strange-shaped wooden crutch, looked at the dream, and then looked at the Mu Mangzi who was also on the ground, laughed lightly, and then shouted, and everyone did not dare to come out.

After a while, a middle-aged woman came in from outside the circle, and she was holding a white flower in her hand, which was very strangely fragrant.

She walked to the old woman, said something, and then walked to Mu Mangzi's side, and sent the flowers to Mu Mangzi's nose, Mu Mangzi, who was lying on the ground and bent his body and raised his head, instantly lost consciousness and fell down, as if he was asleep.

"What are you going to do!" and stood up to see how he was doing, when two men rushed up and grabbed her.

At this time, a man took a thick rope, and another man stepped forward to cut the rope on Mu Mangzi's body with a stone knife and began to strip him of his clothes;

Yu Mengyu seemed to understand: they were going to hang Mu Mangzi to the tree, just like the four or five dried corpses hanging from the tree that they saw along the way.

The dream was extremely terrifying, desperately trying to break free, and the two men twisted tightly.

Suddenly, the man who was stripping off the clothes of the wood screamed, got up and turned to the old woman on crutches, knelt down with a "porphyry", and burst into tears, reporting something.

I didn't know what he was talking about, and I didn't know what was going on.

The crowd began to agitate. The old woman made a gesture, and the crowd fell silent. She walked up to Mu Mangzi and looked at the eagle pattern pendant around his neck.

Suddenly, the old woman made a "porphyry" sound and knelt beside Mu Mangzi.

When they saw this, they all knelt down.

The two men who twisted the dream also let her go and knelt on the ground.

This move was so unexpected, Yu Mengyu stood stupidly, neither daring to run, nor daring to see if Mu Mangzi had lost his breath.

In a short time the old woman got up, and so did the people.

The old woman pointed to the sky, and then to the mountain outside the peak, and let out a long shout, and the crowd followed suit, and then danced and sang around Mu Mangzi.

She wanted to see what Mu Mangzi was doing, but two young women pulled her into the group and danced along, but she became more and more confused, and she didn't dare to act indiscriminately, so she had to jump with them.

She was a natural dancer, and she quickly caught up with their rhythm and movements, feeling that this dance had both similarities and differences with the dance of Hu'an Mountain.

When she was almost exhausted, the old woman screamed, and everyone stopped.

The middle-aged woman who had been stunned just now took a green flower from nowhere and gave it to Mu Mangzi's nose, as if he had woken up from his sleep.

Mu Mangzi woke up from a big dream, looked at it, got up, and saw that the dream was holding hands with a woman, and the people around him were full of tears and looking at him with a smile, not knowing what happened.

The old woman came and said a few words to him. Mu Mangzi understood, and smiled at Yu Mengyu: "It's okay." ”

Only then did he relax his mind.

The old woman invited Mu Mangzi into her grass house, and the men and women dispersed.

She was asked away by several women, and it turned out that they invited her to pick wild vegetables and fruits together.

The sun was in the west, and the wild animals that the men had brought back, and the wild fruits and vegetables that the women had gathered, had been roasted, and a rich dinner had been prepared, and they were lined up on the dam where they danced, and everyone sat in a circle, but no one moved.

She sat between two young women who were pulling her to dance along.

She already understood from their sign language that the old woman, the leader of the tribe, was still talking and doing things to the fool of Mu Mangzi in the grass hut at this time.

After a long while, the old woman took Mu Mangzi's hand out of the grass house, and the people who were waiting outside to eat meat immediately knelt down.

The old woman made a gesture, and everyone was flattened and sat down again.

The old woman asked Mu Mangzi to sit first, and then sit cross-legged.

People began to use their hands as chopsticks to eat meat, fruits, and vegetables.

All this, the dream language is like in a dream, I don't know the reason.

After eating, someone arranged for Mengyu to stay and invited her to a simple, but clean grass hut.

Mu Mangzi was invited by the old female leader again.

Nothing happened that night.

On the second day, the old woman and a few men sent Mu Mangzi and Mengyu out of the mountain, and they did not say goodbye until five or six miles.

During the whole process, only Mu Mangzi and the old woman said a lot of words, and Yu Mengyu didn't understand a word.

After leaving this mysterious and backward tribe and walking for a few miles, Meng Mengyu asked Mu Mangzi: "What's going on?"

"They were going to make a dried corpse out of my leaves and hang them on a tree. ”

Yu Mengyu exclaimed: "So that's really the case. Why do they like to make people into dried corpses?"

"I asked clearly, the corpses were hanging on the trees, and it was their burial custom. This burial custom is called "tree burial".

"However, I don't understand, why did they suddenly go from a corpse to their guest when they were supposed to make you a dry corpse?"

Mu Mangzi took out the neck ornament on his chest and said, "This thing has almost cost me my life a few times." Several times, I almost threw it away, thinking of Hu'an Palace Yu Chang and Dongting Zhuang owner Mu Zisan, all said that it was a good thing; Dream Valley Mother and Longshui Gorge Cave Master, and they all put a lot of thought into this thing, it must be a treasure, maybe it is worth a lot of money, so I am not willing to lose it. This time, it was all this thing that saved my life. Fortunately, I didn't lose it!"

Hearing him talk about Hu'an Palace, Yu Mengyu didn't have a taste in his heart, so he stabilized and said:

"What kind of treasure are you hanging?"

"How do I understand, I only know this thing, and it cost me a life. ”

"Who the hell are you?" asked him this question directly for the first time.

"Hu'an Palace, Tiger Benmu Mangzi!" Mu Mangzi immediately said solemnly.

Yu Mengyu took a deep breath, knowing that he didn't want to say it, but what he said was to make it clear to himself: no matter who he is, he will conscientiously fulfill the obligations of Hu'an Palace.

Yu Mengyu was never too interested in other people's privacy, and no longer asked, but said: "I hope that this thing, from now on, will no longer bring you bad luck, but good luck!"

"Like the sachet around your neck?" Mu Mangzi said.

"How do I know. Meng Yu smiled.

Mu Mangzi also smiled and said, "But we were able to leave smoothly, but with divine help." Last night, I met a lady who helped me, and even more so you, so that you did not become a woman of all the men of that tribe. ”

"What ma'am?" asked Mengyu, secretly glad that he had escaped again.
