Chapter 497: Yeguna Village
82_82884 Fortunately, it is Wushuang and Lan Caidie, if it is a fierce man like Lu Haotian and Yun Qiang, he can't squeeze it at all. Perhaps this is the reason why the Yeguna people were able to completely annihilate the invading Japanese army. One husband is not a fool's dream.
After about two kilometers along this stream, the field of vision in front of it gradually widened, and it was no longer a piece of barren mountain woodland, this is a large village, the buildings of the village are very simple, some of the blue bricks and green tiles are like the relics of the previous dynasty, and some are simply made of ordinary mud and grass.
Don't look at the middle of the night, the outside world may be the time of sleep, but this mysterious village is very lively, every house is smoking in the roof chimney, the village people are also lively, sometimes there will be firecrackers and adults and children shouting, it looks very festive.
The entrance to the village is a checkpoint made of thorns and wood, which is specially used to prevent outsiders from breaking in. As soon as I walked out of the mountain pass, I saw that there were many fragments of white bones scattered on the ground, and it was clear that there were many outsiders who had strayed into the village of Yeguna, but none of them could bring this secret out alive.
If nothing else, I believe that in the early morning of tomorrow, there will be a new corpse here, which is Tang Wei's.
The people of Yaguna are dressed in interesting ways, including the green military uniform that was popular in the seventies, the tunic of the Republic of China, and the tunic of the Republic of China, and some people wear the robes of the old times. From this point of view, they are not completely closed to the outside world, or rather, they can enter and leave the village freely, but outsiders cannot enter.
Two guards with torches shouted at the checkpoint, and the old lady ordered Wushuang to put her off her back and say something to the guards. Shamans have a high status among these northeastern ethnic minorities, second only to Ezhen or patriarchs. The two guards respectfully greeted the old lady and did not forget to give an ancient salute to Wushuang and Lan Caidie.
Today is the big day of the Yaguna people, the annual worship of the Holy Spirit is being held, the beliefs of the Yaguna people are similar to those of the Manchus and most of the ethnic minorities in the mountainous areas of Northeast China, all of them belong to shamanism, but different ethnic groups, they also have differences in the doctrine of their beliefs. For example, the Yeguna people believe that the ferocious jackal in the Changbai Mountains is their ancestor and the holy spirit they revere, and the wolf is both ferocious and faithful, just like the simple Yaguna people.
The intrusion of the two outsiders has undoubtedly become an outlier in the eyes of the Yeguna people, and there are some people here who often go out and bring things from the outside world into the village, but Wushuang and Lan Caidie are people who are at the forefront of fashion in terms of current flowers, they dress up differently, a handsome man and a beautiful woman, but they have earned enough eyeballs here, and the return rate is absolutely 100%.
In the center of the village is a huge rotten tree, which is covered with delicacies offered by the villagers. There was an altar in front of the dead tree, and it was a small altar, a huge oval-shaped rock, and the top was polished and white.
Most of the people in the village knelt in front of the altar and prayed for blessings, and the god they bowed to was Jaknu, and the rotten wood was carved into a fierce jackal, and the jackal sat in front of the altar and looked down on the whole village, with a majestic expression that made people awe-inspiring, and the beast in the forest was almost like two wolves.
There are many sacrifices on the altar, the cattle and sheep are all alive, and they will be slaughtered in a while, of course, together with the cattle and sheep to be slaughtered, there is also Tang Wei, who was tied up and kneeled on the altar.
At this time, Tang Wei had no arrogance at all, like a deflated eggplant, his clothes were also scratched, his body was covered in muddy water, and his face was dirty like a beggar. He knelt on the altar with his head bowed, and seemed to be muttering something in his mouth, because the distance was too far for Wushuang to hear clearly.
"Master, is it Tang Wei? He's not dead! Hmph! Why wasn't he taken away by the wolf! It also saved us from tossing this night! Blame him!"
"Okay, don't talk, you have to abide by the rules of the Yeguna people here, let's see how this old shaman can negotiate for us!" Wushuang whispered to Lan Caidie.
"Look, what is he muttering?
"Hmph, it's good that this guy is crazy, so I won't be scared and guard against him along the way!"
The patriarch of the Yeguna people was an old man who was nearly eighty years old, and the old man had a majestic face, and the shaman negotiated with her, probably saying that if it weren't for these two children, she would probably lose their lives in the forest outside Tunzi, but she definitely didn't dare to say that Wushuang killed a yaknu.
The old patriarch didn't look at the shaman either, and kept turning to stare at Wushuang, as if Wushuang had "bad guys" written on his face. It's not embarrassing to stare at Wushuang.
"What the hell is a barbarian, why is he so rude, look at the wool? Could he be a fancy to you, master?"
"Shut up, don't joke on other people's territory, look at my eyes for a while, in case this old patriarch has any evil intentions towards us, we can withdraw safely if we are the first to restrain him!"
The old patriarch opened his big hand, which means that you don't have to speak for him. Then he walked over to Wushuang with a straight face. The circle of the altar immediately became silent, and no one dared to say a word, this old patriarch was the supreme authority in the hearts of the Yeguna people, and he held the power of life and death of the people. Frightened, even the old witch who was saved by Wushuang didn't dare to say much, and quickly lowered her head and retreated behind the patriarch.
Lan Caidie held her little hand behind her back, holding her folding fan with a sharp blade in her hand, and Wushuang's hand pressed on her shoulder to signal her not to act rashly for the time being.
"Young man, what's your name?" the old patriarch approached Wushuang step by step, his eyes shining with irresistible majesty. This is the excess that is in his hands, he is the ruler here, he is the emperor.
"Hello patriarch, my name is Wushuang, this is my companion Tang Wei on the altar, he may have a problem here, he didn't intrude into your territory on purpose, and we have no malicious intentions, please let him go." "Wushuang salutes first and then soldiers, no matter what ideas people have in their hearts, it will not hurt to be polite after all.
"Wushuang?" "I didn't expect that this old patriarch who lived in the ancient village of Shanlin could speak Chinese so well, he stared at Wushuang directly, and his eyes were not focused on Wushuang's face, but kept looking at the Kui charm hanging around Wushuang's neck.
"Shouldn't you be surnamed Wu?"
Wushuang's eyes rolled around and immediately reacted. Oh, this old patriarch knows Kui Fu, and may also recognize my grandfather Wu Gongyao, who still remembers Kui Fu's appearance after so many years, but seeing his expression so majestic, I don't know if my grandfather is his enemy or benefactor, if he says a word, he is only afraid that he will cause big trouble-513549+CQSQC+497->.
