Chapter 69: The Lost Treasure (5k)

As the chief opened the leather, Zheng Jing saw that there was actually a mysterious pattern on the leather.

"What is this?"

Seeing Zheng Jing's puzzled look, the chief stroked the leather and said, "This leather is something that has been passed down from our tribe for many years.

As far as I know, it's been more than four hundred years. ”

More than 400 years?

Hearing the chief say that this leather has been passed down for more than 400 years, Zheng Jing was a little unconvinced.

"What's the pattern on this?"

The chief shook his head: "Except for the first chief who knew the secret of this pattern more than four hundred years ago, the other chiefs didn't know what this pattern recorded, and no one knew."

Only the first chieftain knew?

Hearing this, Zheng Jing was obviously curious about this leather with a mysterious pattern.

"Can you show me?"

"Of course."

Spread out the leather, and the pattern on it was completely exposed.

Zheng Jing carefully looked at the pattern and found that this pattern looked very much like a treasure map.

That's right, a treasure map.

On the outermost side of the pattern, there is a red dot, which is evident on the leather.

So, Zheng Jing saw it at once.

On the red point of light, there is a black line, this line is very long, crooked, and overlapping in some places, looking like a mysterious pattern.

But if you look closely, it's a road map.

It's just that the route is too long and the leather is too small, so at first glance I thought it was a certain pattern.

At the end of the route, there is also a red dot, and unlike the red dot on the outside, there is a line of letters next to this red dot.

The letters are very small, and if Zheng Jing hadn't looked at them carefully, he wouldn't have found them at all.

Islands in the sea

An island in the ocean?

Seeing these words, Zheng Jing already had some guesses in his heart.

The red dot on the outside should be the starting point, and if what the chief just said is true, then the location of this starting point is the village of Makmba, and then follow the route to the end point, which is an island in the ocean.

The nearest ocean is the Atlantic Ocean, a few hundred kilometers away.

Judging by the road map on the leather, this island is most likely in the Atlantic Ocean.

It's just that the Atlantic Ocean is so big, and I don't know where the island mentioned above is.

"Do you see anything?"

The chief saw Zheng Jing's brows furrowed, thinking that he had seen something.

Zheng Jing shook his head and said, "This pattern is very complicated, it looks like a road map, but it doesn't look like it."

The chief was not surprised when he heard Zheng Jing's words, nodded and said, "I can't see it, if this thing wasn't left by the first chief, we would have thrown it away."

"They should be ready, let's get out."

Seeing a bonfire rising outside, the chief said to Zheng Jing.

"Then I'll go outside first."

Seeing Zheng Jing's back, the chief looked at the leather in his hand, and his eyes were a little complicated.

Alas!

When he came outside, Zheng Jing saw that the villagers were busy.

Seeing this picture, Zheng Jing took out the camera and recorded it.

The children who were playing on the side couldn't help but be a little scared when they saw Zheng Jing holding an unfamiliar object at them.

Zheng Jing gave them a kind smile, and then took the camera to the campfire and pointed the camera at Todk, who was sorting out the ingredients.

When Todks saw what Zheng Jing was holding, he thought it was a gun, so frightened that he almost threw the knife in his hand.

Seeing Todek's frightened look, Zheng Jing had to tell him and the surrounding villagers what the things in his hands were for.

The surrounding villagers heard that this little thing could fit them in, and everyone looked at the camera with curious eyes.

They were curious about how this little thing had put them in.

Seeing that there were people around him, Zheng Jing took out his mobile phone, opened the video he had taken before, and put it on the table next to him for them to watch.

Because of the location, there are many people in the village who have never been out of the village, and for them, everything they have not seen will make them feel afraid.

For example, Zheng Jing, a yellow-skinned person, is ominous to some old people and can bring disaster to the village.

However, because the chief let Zheng Jing in, they didn't dare to say anything, and could only talk in private.

Todks looked at the table full of people, and he wanted to go over and have a look, but the thought of the ingredients in his hand made him give up.

Zheng Jing, who was filming the video, saw the expression on Todek's face and said, "Don't worry, I'll let you see it when you're done."

Hearing Zheng Jing's words, Todekes was a little embarrassed, knowing that his mind was seen by him.

He smiled at him and sped up the processing of the ingredients.

After filming the video of Todex handling the ingredients, Zheng Jing came to the women again, and they were processing ordinary ingredients.

Many of the ingredients they handled, Zheng Jing had never seen.

While shooting a video, Zheng Jing asked them what they were with something they didn't know.

From their mouths, Zheng Jing found that they didn't know what many ingredients were called, only that they could eat this thing.

For example, a hawthorn-like fruit, they heard them call this thing a red fruit, a kind of berry.

This was the first time Zheng Jing had seen such a thing. So he couldn't help but pick it up and eat one, it was sour and tasted a bit like an apple.

After shooting a ten-minute video, Zheng Jing turned off the camera.

The time to shoot has already been filmed, and he will wait until the bonfire party starts to shoot according to the situation.

Chief Duode came out of the room, and when he saw Zheng Jing, he happened to put the camera in his backpack.

Chief Dord came to the campfire with a stick and asked, "How is it, not very accustomed to it?"

Hearing the chief's voice, Zheng Jing stood up and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's good."

Duode patted Zheng Jing on the shoulder and said, "Sit down, I'll tell you about the situation in the rainforest."

"Since you have decided to go to the rainforest, then you should know the danger inside, because it is very dangerous inside, and I can't let someone take you in, only to take you to the edge of the forest.

Also, I was thinking a lot about it in my room just now

And more, decided to give this thing to you. ”

Seeing the road map handed over by the chief, Zheng Jing was a little confused.

"I can't ask for this."

Coming back to his senses, Zheng Jing hurriedly refused.

Who knows if he deliberately tested whether he had any thoughts on this leather.

"Many people have come to our tribe before, but none of them have made me want to give you this leather.

When you went out just now, I thought a lot about it, and since the idea of giving you this leather came to my heart, then I will give you this leather.

I hope you can crack the above pattern in the future. ”

Seeing the road map in his hand, Zheng Jing was a little overwhelmed.

How like a dream.

After looking at the chief, Zheng Jing wanted to open his mouth to refuse.

But Chief Duode knew what Zheng Jing wanted to say, and said to him with a smile, "Take it."

Seeing that the chief didn't seem to be joking, Zheng Jing looked at the road map in his hand and said, "Then I'll take it?"

"Take it." The chief said with a smile.

It wasn't until he put the roadmap in his backpack that Zheng Jing came back to his senses.

It's also magical.

A piece of leather depicting a mysterious route was given to him?

When did I get so lucky?

Zheng Jing couldn't figure it out.

As Todks finished his food, the chief called back the villagers who were gathered around the table looking at their phones.

Putting the phone on, Zheng Jing took out the camera, and he knew that the bonfire party had begun.

As the chief raised the cane in his hand, Zheng Jing noticed that the villagers below, men, women, and children, were not talking.

Zheng Jing was also because the chief wanted to speak, who knew that he actually waved his cane and danced with words in his mouth.

Seeing this scene, how could Zheng Jing miss it, find a place where he can see all the people clearly and put the camera down.

As the chief danced, Zheng Jing saw the villagers below holding their hands high, and their mouths were talking the same thing.

With a high-pitched voice from the chief, Zheng Jing found that the villagers below were kicking barefoot.

Stepping on the ground barefoot, it makes a neat snapping sound.

Zheng Jing took a look at the camera and found that this picture had been recorded.

Judging by their movements, this is supposed to be a ritual.

I just don't know what this ritual means.

The ceremony ended quickly, and with a shout from the crowd, the ceremony ended.

After the ceremony, Zheng Jing came to the chief's side with a video camera.

"Chief, was that a ceremony just now?"

The chief wiped his sweat and said, "Yes, that ritual just now was only done by our tribe's distinguished guests.

The name is Blessing Dance, and I wish the distinguished guests who come to us safe and smooth. ”

I see.

"Alright, it's not early, let's eat."

Taking a sip of water, the chief looked up at the moon in the sky and said.

Zheng Jing originally wanted to ask for information related to the ceremony, but he could only give up when he heard the chief say this.

As the food was distributed to everyone, everyone began to eat.

Looking at the food on the palm leaves, Zheng Jing took a bite and felt that the taste was very good, and the taste of the mixture of various ingredients made him feel a sense of brightness.

No wonder Todks knows how to cook, it turns out that his cooking tastes delicious.

The food was eaten quickly and everyone added the food twice.

When they had their fill, the place was cleaned, and then the men and women danced around the campfire.

Glancing at Todks watching the video next to him, Zheng Jing took the camera and filmed it.

After filming the villagers dancing, Zheng Jing put away the camera.

The dance should only be filmed for more than five minutes, and there is no need for it in the long run.

"After the video is filmed, do you want to go dancing?" The chieftain came from nowhere, came to him and said.

Zheng Jing shook his head and said embarrassedly, "I can't dance."

Dancing is a minority skill, and he only brags.

"It's okay if you don't know, it's easy to learn, how about it? Try? ”

"Okay, I'll try."

With that, Zheng Jing joined the dancing team.

His participation made the villagers cheer.

At this time, women who had some ideas about Zheng Jing came to him with various purposes and taught him how to dance.

Zheng Jing was a little embarrassed to see so many women around him.

Actually, it's because the smell of body odor is too strong.

Zheng Jing's brain has been systematically developed, and his memory has become very good, and he learned it after studying it once.

Seeing that Zheng Jing learned it so quickly, some women who didn't touch Zheng Jing were a little disappointed, and they learned it too quickly.

As Zheng Jing learned to dance, they were embarrassed to be by Zheng Jing's side anymore.

Seeing them leave, Zheng Jingchang took a breath.

Comfortable.

As the party ended, Zheng Jing followed the chief to his house.

Because there is no electricity in the village, they can only use animal fat for lighting.

Chief Mao wanted to take him inside, but Zheng Jing stopped and said, "Chief, I'll sleep outside."

"How embarrassing, after all, you are a guest, how can you let a guest sleep outside." Dod said.

"It's okay, I've been outside for a long time, and I'm used to sleeping outside, and I can't sleep inside."

"That's right, that's okay, you can sleep outside, I'm sleepy, you just clean up a place by yourself."

By the way, the mat is under this cabinet, and you can take it out later. ”

Dod yawned.

After all, I'm old and can't stay up late.

Seeing the chief return to the back room, Zheng Jing took out a flashlight and opened the cabinet.

From under the cupboard, he took out a blanket made of dead grass and animal hair.

Although November is the rainy season, the temperature is still very high, so there is no need to cover the quilt.

Spread the blanket closest to the door, and then Zheng Jing took out something from the space and arranged it around.

Then the whole person lay down on the blanket.

Zheng Jing lay on the blanket and waited for a while, and after seeing that there was no movement, he took out the road map given to him by the chieftain.

He wanted to give it a try and see if he could use the identification function to identify this mysterious roadmap.

In Zheng Jing's expectation, Zheng Jing clicked on the identification function.
