The fat man used a shovel to bring out a piece of patina, and blew away the dust on it, which seemed to be a copper coin, that is, like a pendant.

Fat Man Road; "It's really the God of Wealth, do you know this thing, can it have research value?"

Take a closer look, the back is engraved with a picture of the head of the snake body, the patina snake scales are lifelike, but the basic face of the person is blurred, and it is impossible to distinguish whether it is a man or a woman, such cultural relics I have never heard of.

However, the archaeological community has the qualifications of famous literature, and found unearthed objects that have never been seen before, and gave them names, so they said to the fat man; This is called a snake with copper scales, a human head and a snake body seal. ”

"How much is that worth? Sounds like a lot of fun. The fat man asked.

I say; "It's a pity that it's just such a piece, if you take it to Beijing, you don't need to identify it, and you can take a few buses just by the weight of copper."

The fat man is disappointed; "Hmm... These seniors are too stingy, so they give such a little hard money.

At this time, the leather bags were shouting all over the mountains, looking for us everywhere, thinking that something had happened to us, but they didn't expect us to bury the dead here.

When we returned to the camp, we told us what had happened to us and the reason why we couldn't find food.

Rena said that there was no need to worry, that when she was looking for water, she had picked a lot of mushrooms, and now they were roasting on the coals, and that she would be able to come to the mountains in a while. Since it was too hot, Reyna baked the mushrooms she said aside, came over to wait under the tree.

I also smelled a fragrant aroma, it is the smell of wild mushrooms, I am most familiar with it, in my hometown, I can eat almost every day in the rainy days in summer, and I am always very appetizing. However, wild mushrooms cannot be eaten indiscriminately, because there are many types, it is difficult to distinguish which one is edible and which is poisonous mushroom. The reason why there is a drug test competition in Yunnan every year!

I hastened to ask Miss Reina; "Can you identify edible wild mushrooms?"

Reyna said she had only seen it in magazines!

I looked back and it was over! Professor Wan had already gobbled it up alone, and when I came to his side, it was like a whirlwind, sweeping all the fine on the coals, like a hungry wolf, and he couldn't get enough of it, even a bunch of unroasted ones had to be eaten! I quickly kicked the red mushroom away! Because this mushroom is notoriously 'not full'!

When Professor Wan saw that I had trampled on all the food, he stared at me with a resentful expression, and almost wanted to gnaw on my shoes, but I didn't care about explaining and knocked him unconscious with one punch! At the same time he foamed at the mouth and rolled his eyes!

The crowd didn't know what was going on.

Fat Man Road; "Comrade Xiao Feng, you are too ruthless! There are so many mushrooms in this mountain, not so bad! I'll just go back and pick your share again! ”

I said; "I'm not resentful of Professor Wan for eating alone, the main thing is that he eats poisonous mushrooms, this kind of mushroom is called insatiable!"

Again, I explain; "I can't eat enough, there is a wild mushroom that can paralyze the sense of taste, you see Professor Wan, he has eaten so much, he has to die if he is not poisoned!"

Hearing me say this, Reyna was particularly ashamed; "Professor Wan shouldn't be poisoned, how can this be good!"

I say; "Fortunately, he found it in time, but he just ate too much, and he will be fine when he finishes digesting it!"

Ma Pan and the others still feel that it is a pity that such a fragrant thing has been ruined by me like this.

I patted my chest; "Don't worry, I'm covered for dinner tonight."

Soon, I walked around, and there was actually a lot of edible game, so I picked up a few nests of the most familiar species, enough to fill my stomach.

After roasting again, everyone was not at ease, and they didn't roll their eyes when they saw that I tried some of them, so they enjoyed themselves!

The big cow was eating deliciously and asked me; "Yunnan people are really eighteen weird, you even have so much attention to eating mushrooms."

I say; "Yes, not only exquisite, let me tell you, wild mushrooms have many strange names, what are the hand green, milk pulp mushrooms, beef liver, matsutake mushrooms, chicken fir, horse skin blisters, cow feces mushrooms, etc......... Edible. What else is red ghost beating, cochineal, bitter horse liver, grave umbrella, purple brush handle, etc......... Poisonous mushrooms. ”

Talking and laughing, the sky is dark again, people are easy to get sleepy as soon as they are full, and before I know it, I slept until dawn, and it was a new day.

After Professor Wan woke up, he kept complaining that his stomach hurt, touching his bulging belly, and asked; "What's the matter, why is your stomach so swollen, don't you just eat a little mushroom?"

The fat man laughed; "You may be pregnant!"

Seeing that Professor Wan was fine, Reyna recounted everything that had happened.

Wan Tong sighed with emotion, remembered something and said; "No wonder, when I traveled to the island country, the food of those little Japanese devils was so popular, could it be that this dark cuisine was added?"

After all, we had to keep going, and it didn't take long for us to find a lot of weird buildings.

Similar to the houses built by primitive tribes, but the basic structure has collapsed due to disrepair, and part of the soil foundation and rubble have been weathered, overgrown with artemisia grass, and it looks as desolate as a mass grave at a glance!

Professor Wan said; These villages are at least thousands of years old, how did they break like this, and where did all these people go?

Fat Man Road; "These places are so remote, the whole village must have moved to the city to jump ropes."

Reyna said; "How is it possible, from the degree of weathering of these buildings, at least there are about a thousand, at that time, in the lower reaches of southern Yunnan, there are basically primitive tribes, and the buildings that can develop to such a scale are already considered advanced residences, unless something has happened here and they have to move away."

I say; "When we came yesterday, the zombies we met were probably also residents of the neighborhood, judging from the way they were dressed, they were not very primitive, and they still had copper things on them."

The fat man suddenly remembered something; "Yes, it seems that this village is not small, let's go around and see if there are any things left by them, how to determine the age just by looking at the broken tiles!" Who doesn't know the fat man's thoughts, how can picking up a snake and copper scales satisfy his greed!

When we walked into the tribe, we found many stone utensils and all kinds of earthenware pots and pans, but they had been exposed to the sun and rain for too long, and they would break at the slightest touch.

The big cow is the same as the fat man, looking east and west, rummaging around, but he can't find anything decent, or the same sentence, there are no antiques.

At this time, the bag shouted; "Yo ho! There's good stuff, there's a big nest of eggs here! ”

Everyone was curious, there was not even a ghost in sight here, how could there be a nest of eggs? Could it be that there are still people living in seclusion in these places, raising some chickens, ducks and geese, and living a life of ignorance of the world!

I saw the leather bag, and I really found a lot of green eggs from a crack in the wall, and handed it to Ma Pandao first; "Big brother, you can make up for it again!"

Ma Pan scolded; "You really think I'll eat everything, this is a snake egg, it's about to rot, be careful of the snake girl looking for trouble for you!"

I said in my heart, how can you see so many snake galls at will, it is possible that there are snake nests nearby.

"There's a picture here, what the hell is it?" Reyna said as she crouched in a corner.

When I looked at it, it turned out to be a human-headed snake body, which was almost exactly the same as the snake engraved in the copper scales, and it was a female snake with a cape, and her body was graceful and charming!

Professor Wan said; "I also saw it on the wall in front of me, what does this snake body symbolize?"

Big Bull Road; "Isn't this a mermaid who doesn't comb her hair?"

The fat man said; "The mermaid doesn't have such a long tail, I guess this is Nuwa Niangniang, but this painter is not good enough, if you draw a circle of light above her head, it looks like a god!"

Professor Wan said; "We do archaeological research, that is, we must dare to hypothesize, and in further research, the fat man's conjecture is not unreasonable, and the legendary Nuwa Niangniang is indeed the characteristic of a human body and a snake tail. It's just that this hairstyle is messy and lacks a goddess beauty! ”

Reyna Dao; "I don't think this woman has messy hair, but it is very abstract, as if every strand of this hair has life!"

I also feel that there is a weirdness in the messy hair, as if there are countless thin snakes coiled around each other! This reminds me of a myth about the ancient Dian Kingdom.

I said to the people; "Have you ever heard of the story of 'Snake Queen'?"

Everyone shook their heads, but they were expecting me to say it.

I remember that I once accidentally saw on a black website that someone found an ancient tomb in the Luxi area, and after digging it up, many relics left by the ancient Dian Kingdom were found, including murals such as human heads and snake bodies in the tomb walls. After some research, some people say that this is the legendary snake queen.

The fat man said impatiently; "Don't say where there is such a human snake, just say, which concubine is the snake queen, who is her favored king, and where is it buried? No, it's gone! ”

I said in my heart that the fat man is greedy more than desire, and he wants to dig graves at every turn, and how many mausoleums can he parry like him.

I continued; "The snake queen is not a concubine, but a slave princess, a goddess who has redeemed the slave kingdom and gained freedom, so that she can be worshiped by the majority of slave tribes, and it can even be said that she has reached a spiritual high faith. All in all, it's just a legend, but no one has confirmed whether Snake Ji ever existed. ”

Professor Wan gave me a thumbs up and added a few words; "The legend of the snake is also part of the mystery of the ancient Dian Kingdom, which can be traced back to the origin of the ancient Dian Kingdom, one of the convincing legends, I don't know what period the slave society was at that time, there is no definite statement."

We were gathered around and were concentrating on the discussion, when suddenly a rattlesnake came out of the grass, and everyone was frightened!

However, the snake did not have malicious intent, and looked directly at the painting of the snake body around us, spitting blood and staring at it for a while, as if it had seen its ancestors, and then turned its head back to the grass worm, making us have a false alarm!

In fact, we still didn't pay attention to the fact that there were snakes moving everywhere nearby, so we could only be cautious, or we could say that we were frightened every step of the way.

We did not waste too much time, continued to walk through the deserted village, and did not dare to relax our vigilance, every few steps we would see all kinds of poisonous snakes, for fear of being accidentally bitten, just like detecting a mine, every time we crossed the grass, we hit it, and we continued to hurry without moving.

Leather bag said; "You don't have to be so frightened, it will be time-consuming to walk like this, I will give each of you a cigarette, and walk while smoking, snakes hate the smell of smoke the most."

It was a good idea, but Miss Rena and Wan Tong didn't smoke, so they finally felt safe by smearing tobacco on their heels, so we walked much faster.

It turns out that this deserted village is not such a small village, in fact, it is quite a small ancient Dian village, occasionally you can see the triangular tile house that has not completely collapsed, it is very the style of ancient Dian architecture, but it is relatively short, we looked at it, and did not find anything usable, so we continued to move forward.

We walked for three hours, and finally left the deserted ancient town, and walked into the dense jungle, I don't know when, the wind blew, blowing the towering ancient trees creaking, mixed with all kinds of birds and beasts screaming, it was really unsettling!

Reyna and I walked to the front row, and saw that she really couldn't relax her vigilance, so I asked her how long she had been doing this business, how could a girl's family think of crawling around in the eight lines outside, it was not easy to take risks so upright, with her so beautiful as a flower, she could easily mix in any job.

Instead, I was told by Rena; "I'm not used to eating soft food, I see that Mr. Feng is a talent, he looks like a little white face, he can eat with his face, there is no need to trek through mountains and rivers, in case in the end, you must get what you want, will you regret it?"

I was speechless, but fortunately, Captain Wang was bored and interjected behind his back; "You two are talented and beautiful, what are you talking about! In fact, the fat man not only knows how to touch gold, but also has a specialty, who to tell the matchmaker is very smart, or I will give you ........."

I hurriedly blocked the fat man's mouth, for fear that he would want to make fun of me, and besides, marriage can not be a child's play, and it must not be casually talked about.

The fat man broke my hand and laughed; "What kind of face are you a big man blushing, I didn't name my surname, don't be amorous!"

I still advise the fat man to order it until now, otherwise give him gummies.

Walking in the depths of such an old forest, everyone is inevitably a little uneasy, and Ma Pan and others in the back also occasionally exchange a few words.

At this time, Rena in the front suddenly turned around and gave me a big hug, thinking that she was in love with me, but I didn't expect that there was a row of dead people in front of me, which scared me to fall on my heels!

Everyone broke out in a cold sweat, because there were a lot of zombies here that I met with the fat man before, all of them had shriveled skin, hideous faces, lying on the seat grinning, and the nightmare had never been so scary!

Professor Wan asked; "Is this the kind you buried yesterday? Why are there all over the mountains? ”

I nodded; "This time, there is a lack of heart and strength, so many corpses, when will we be buried, we still have to take a detour."

Ma Pan said lightly; "These dead people are not related to you, no matter what about their zombies, people like to breathe, why do you have to stuff others in the soil........."

Professor Wan said; "That's right, such a burial, there is a certain reason for him, let's leave it alone, it's important to hurry!"

Originally, we wanted to take a detour, but these shriveled corpses were everywhere, there were thousands of them, and we were afraid that there would still be corpses elsewhere in the detour, so we simply walked straight and moved the zombies blocking the way.

However, every time a corpse was moved, he could only take a few steps, and the big bull was impatient and stepped directly on it first; "What are you moving, hug them one by one, and then you will hold your feelings later, don't you feel disgusting, you hug slowly, I don't have this bodhisattva heart."

In fact, I can't stand the smell of corpses for a long time, although the smell of corpses has faded, but I still can't help but want to vomit, as soon as the big cow said this, let's just step on the corpse!

Rena is different from us, people can work lightly, and she has disappeared like Spider-Man.

When we came out of the pile of dead people, we saw Leather Bag and Reyna looking at us with a look of contempt, as if we were really clumsy.

We continued on our way, and after walking for another three hours, I saw some strange trees, so I took pictures with a digital camera, and then went back to make a travel album.

Before I knew it, my body lost too much water, and my thirst began to torment me, and my mouth was dry, and the mountain spring water we brought with us had already been drunk, and we didn't encounter a new water source along the way.

Everyone was hungry and thirsty, licking their lips, trying not to think about it, so that I could continue to move forward, thanks to the lack of too much sun, otherwise I would have suffered from heat stroke.

After another hour of perseverance, we finally left the dense forest, and a different landscape appeared before my eyes, and the place where we were was condescending, and at a glance the rolling mountains were not in the sky, and a familiar picture appeared in my mind.

Professor Wan said; "If we get closer to the rainforest, the altitude in front of us will be lower, and it will probably be hotter."

We rested for a while, I took this opportunity to take out the parchment map and compare, which made me full of joy, the nine mountains shrouded in clouds and mist were obvious, just 99% consistent with the nine mountains in the feng shui secret painting, just the sun was setting, like a copied picture scroll.

I stood up and addressed the people; "Comrades! Ninety thousand Yin Mountain has arrived! ”
