Volume 2: Dream of the Nu River Chapter 038 Hushu is not a beetle

The words of the ghost marquis can be regarded as boosting the morale of the team, after such a long time of travel and fatigue, the personnel are tired, and the mood is even worse when they come to fight for food.

Out of the dam, it is a land of poor mountains and bad waters, but this is not a primeval forest, the bottom of the mountain is a deciduous forest, planted with oak trees, after the conservation of this place does not produce timber, the mountain people who rely on the mountain to eat have also moved away.

The mountains in the distance are foggy and misty. Hundreds of miles of mountain ranges, reckless hazel and hazel are connected together, heavy mountains and mountains, lush, majestic, beautiful. I've used to hike this way, but this is the first time I've traversed such a large area of forest.

"Fellow, what's your name? This year, you are expensive? "I went up to say hello to the guide.

"Sixty-five, just call me Uncle Gen." The guide said, "I said, what are you doing here?" ”

Yu Fatzi didn't have any hair on his mouth, and he was about to say inverted when he opened his mouth, so I kicked him away and said, "It's nothing, this Miss Huai's family is a big boss and wants to come here to invest in the forest farm, so I came to the field for investigation." ”

"Oh, that's not a coincidence, this forest farm is now a conservation area, and it is not allowed to be logged."

"Uncle Gen, you don't understand this, as the so-called there are policies, there are countermeasures, what money can't be done in this world, a few years ago, Ningbo made a bay ecological reserve, saying that reclamation is not allowed, and it turned into a coastal development zone in a few years."

"Hey, who's to say it isn't!" Uncle Gen looked at Huai Rujin and saw that she was brightly dressed, and seemed to believe my words.

After walking for about ten minutes, I arrived at the warehouse where Uncle Gen was, which was basically deserted, and there were only a few tiled houses left in the so-called warehouse.

"The place you're going to is a long way, and we'll have to have enough dry food, and we'll have to walk for three or four days."

"Three or four days?" I was surprised, "That's only a day's walk on this map?" ”

"You are not from the mountains and don't know, according to your way, there will be a dam after we go down, and we will go over a mountain and then over a mountain, so it is not a three- or four-day journey, and we have to pay people to go." Uncle Gen said with a smile.

"I see." Since there was no contour line, I looked at the simple map in my hand, so I came up with such a foreign appearance.

This terrain is extremely inconvenient for transportation, and many times you have to take a detour to the original road, and it is very undulating, with many ravines. Due to the harsh winter, snow began to fall in the mountains and the temperature dropped sharply, which made it more difficult for the team to advance.

The mountains here are not very high, and there is basically no snow line, but there is already snow on the ground. The further you go, the thicker it gets. In the evening, the surroundings were white, and the snow was so thick that it was impossible to see the road on the ground.

The ghost marquis saw that it was not early, and it would only be more dangerous to go any further, and said, "Let's stop and rest, let's spend the night here today." ”

I looked at the empty mountains and felt strange. Looking at the mountains and reckless forests comparable to Guilin in the distance, I have no intention of watching. I looked at the top of my eyes and saw a very small dam below, and asked, "Master Gu, the leyline we are looking for now seems to be relatively real, but I always feel that there is something wrong."

"Little ghost, I didn't expect you to be quite knowledgeable." The ghost marquis drank a few sips of water, and didn't say much, "I can only look at it while walking, and find the faucet first, so that the point is a matter of course." Let it be high and deep, as long as you walk along the leylines, you will definitely find virtue. ”

I turned my head to look at Huai Rujin, she looked at the mountain in front of her, her brows furrowed slightly, as if she was worried about something, and said, "I'm afraid that someone will take the lead." ”

The ghost marquis also sighed as he spoke, and seemed to be anxious about this matter, and said: "They can find this place so quickly, there must be masters in the team." ”

In the evening, Uncle Gen came to discuss with the ghost marquis, saying that it was heavy snow blocking the mountain, and the original route might not work according to this situation, because it was originally to pass through a canyon, and there was a stream beach in that place, but now the snow covers the stream and beach, and it may be troublesome to continue walking, after all, Uncle Gen has always thought that we are here to investigate, and safety is the first.

"If you don't object, I can take you to the nearest Yi village to rest for a while, and when the snow stops, we're on our way."

The ghost marquis did not object, but in this case, it would be delayed for a long time, and the original three or four days of travel had increased by half. Yu Fatzi walked the mountain road, which was originally unhappy, and he had to say that Uncle Gen wanted to earn more money for the way, but people never mentioned adding money at all.

The Yi village mentioned by Uncle Gen has a lot to do with the destination that Huai Rujin is looking for, it may be the same family branch, and this part of the clan did not move away, but took root here. By the time I got there, it was late at night, and the doors were already closed for sleep, and if you wanted to find a place to stay, you might have to be cheeky and knock on the door.

The only family in the village was still lit and was about to go to spend the night, but Uncle Gen panicked, "It's strange, this family hasn't seen anyone live in it for a long time, how can there be anyone today?" ”

"Really? Maybe someone went out to do business and came back today? Yu Fatzi was in a hurry to go to sleep, and he didn't think about it much, so he knocked on the door when he went up.

It is a "Muluoluo", a traditional house inhabited by the Yi people in the forest area. The four walls of the house are staggered with logs to form a dry well, which is a composite pure wood structure building, which is commonly known as "Mu Luoluo". According to Uncle Gen, the owner of this house is called Ayita, who lost his wife at an early age, has a pair of twin sisters, and the tall Muloro in front of him is very conspicuous in the whole village, and he can be regarded as a rich man. However, even so, in Uncle Gen's eyes, this Muloro was still panicked, and he heard him say that the people in the village regarded this house as a ghost building, and the people in the village had never seen Ayita for a long time.

Yu Fatzi knocked on the door, and it was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl who came out to open the door, and Yu Fatzi told her that she wanted to spend the night, and as he spoke, he took out his wallet and stuffed a stack of banknotes into her hand, almost not frightening her.

"Abba, there's a guest!"

At this time, a middle-aged man came out of it, wearing traditional Yi costumes, and when he saw so many people coming, he was still a little hesitant, "I'm sorry, I don't have so many guest rooms at home, I'm afraid I can't live there." ”

When Uncle Gen saw him, he thought he was dreaming and said, "It's really Ayita." ”

"Big brother, you can do it, okay, fifty-six nationalities are one family, it's okay, let's just squeeze it."

Yu Fatzi didn't give up, Ayita had no choice, so she had to agree, "Okay, a few of you have worked hard all the way, please come in with me, Shiwei, you go to the kitchen to cook." ”

With that, the girl named Shiwei went to the backyard to cook. We have seen a lot of Yi girls in the Yi village in the Yunhe Gorge, and we forgot our tiredness when we saw two slender Yao girls appear in front of us.

The moment I entered the door, the ghost lord and I invariably looked down at the place where the door was connected to the door frame, and both of them seemed to have found some clues.

Muloro is generally a two-bay or three-bay house, and the house is about four meters high, which looks very imposing. Its structure is usually in the form of a courtyard or three squares and one wall, with a fence to form an independent courtyard. The walls are made of tree trunks more than two feet long and cut into squares and then lined horizontally, and the whole house does not need a single nail. Not only is it warm in winter and cool in summer, but the whole structure of this wedge is particularly shockproof.

The house facing the gate is called the Sutra Room, and the upstairs is a Buddhist hall where statues of Tibetan Buddhist gods are enshrined. Downstairs is the guest room, which is also where the adult man lives. Ayita led me and my party to the first floor of the scripture room, and specially instructed: "Ladies and gentlemen, that is the flower building on the left, which is for adult women to live in, and men are not allowed to enter the flower building without permission, Miss Huai and they live there." ”

"Big brother, don't worry, we are all decent and good citizens, and we won't do that kind of thing."

Ayita smiled mysteriously, as if she had already seen Yu Fatzi's character, and she didn't bother to pay attention to him, so she left.

It didn't take long for Shiwei and her sister to bring dinner to the yard, and they couldn't tell who was who from their appearance, and Yu Fatzi was overjoyed when he saw them.

However, there are four people who have never touched their chopsticks at this dinner, one is me, the other is the ghost marquis, and the other is Huai Rujin and Uncle Gen. The ghost marquis and I undoubtedly found something wrong, so be cautious, afraid that the food will be poisonous, Huai Rujin is a very careful person, even if she doesn't know what the situation is now, but she must have found the expressions of two important people, and it is reasonable for her not to move her chopsticks.

As for Uncle Gen, it was completely out of fear, and I saw him say in a trembling voice: "Several, the more I think about it, the more I feel that something is wrong, this Ayita ......"

"There is indeed a problem, I suspect that this Ayita is planning something wrong!.

Fat Yu thought I was drunk, "Li Rui, your brains are in the dark?" Brother Ayita is kind enough to take us in, how can you say such a thing! ”

The ghost marquis handed me a look, signaling me to be calm for a while, at this time the knife and Sister Meng were gone. Come to think of it, they have been instructed by the ghost marquis and have already acted.

It didn't take long for the knife to escort Ayita over, and Sister Meng brought the two sisters Shiwei over, still holding a paper bag in her hand.

"Master Gu, you're right, this family really has bad intentions." Said the knife.

"This is the poison that is put into our meals, mandala powder, commonly known as Menghan medicine." Sister Meng threw the paper bag on the table, and the three members of Ayita's family turned pale in an instant.

"I'll go!" Yu Fatzi was also frightened, and quickly ran out and vomited.

Huai Rujin looked at me and asked, "How did you see it?" ”

"The reason is very simple, 'the flowing water does not rot, and the hub does not beetle', which means that the water that often flows does not stink, and the door shaft that often rotates is not eaten by insects. When I came in just now, I paid special attention to the door shaft, and found that the door shaft was very smooth, obviously inhabited for a long time, but Uncle Gen said that this house has always been empty, which makes me have to pay more attention. ”

"Are they trying to kill people and sell goods?" Huai Rujin speculated.

I smiled and shook my head, my eyes staring at the two sisters, who had been keeping their heads down and silent, as a gentle breeze blew in the yard and blew a few leaves off the trees.
