Chapter 101: The Yongxia Tribe (2)
Monk Wuhua couldn't help but bow his head and laugh when he heard this, "I really don't know what to say about you, if I." ”
Ah Tao saw that the flowerless monk wanted to speak and stopped, and took the initiative to change the topic, she could probably guess what the other party wanted to say, but she was destined to disappoint the flowerless monk.
"Look at the wall over there, there are big birds painted on it. ”
The two of them came to the wall to study the pattern carefully.
There are four paintings in total, each of which tells a story.
The first depicts a tribe with human legs and a bird's beak, all of whom stretch their necks and open their mouths wide to look up at the sky, like a flock of chicks waiting to be fed
The second depicts the tribesmen drinking water around a vat, with their mouths normal and their legs not slender into bamboo poles.
In the third painting, a group of birds of different shapes are tied and thrown on the ground, just like killing chickens, first wiping their necks to let all the blood remain in the vat, in this one they are human legs and birds, but their hands are still there.
In the fourth painting, the people of the tribe worship the unknown bird god with a pointed beak and wings, and the things depicted on the edges of this painting are more interesting. There was a group of people gritting their teeth, clenching their hands into fists and stacking green tendons up and down, just seeing the same direction of force, and did not draw what was in their hands on the screen, but seeing the dynamics of pulling, there should be an extremely thin and tough line in their hands.
They use these threads to weave cobwebs and trap worshippers in them.
At this time, look at the group of worshippers in the middle, their dress is different from the other people in the paintings, they are decorated with gold and silver jewelry, but they are just a makeup box, these gold and silver jewelry are not for them to wear at all, more like they are placed on them to deliberately attract others to steal.
The most different thing in this painting is that the people in the tribe are completely human.
Ah Tao went to the back of the wall, "There are only these four paintings here, and I haven't even drawn an ending." The meaning of the first three expressions can still be connected, and the fourth one is too strange. Is this looking from right to left, or left to right?"
"I think looking from left to right is a better way to tie these four pictures together. Many birds like to decorate their nests with glittering knick-knacks, so the group of people who worship in the middle are covered with all kinds of jewelry, and others weave spider webs from thin threads that are not visible to the naked eye, which may be used to catch birds. ”
"If the wire is thin enough and the bird flies fast enough, it is indeed possible to hit the wire and be cut into several pieces. "Before, Ah Tao understood the meaning of these pictures from right to left according to his usual habits.
The offspring of a group of people and birds, after drinking the water in the vat, gradually fade the characteristics of the birds. But it was not connected to the third and fourth paintings.
On the other hand, it can form a complete story, people wear gold and silver jewelry as bait to catch big birds, put the bird's blood in the tank, and people drink the bird's blood and gradually become birdish.
"Maybe their culture is to worship something, and it has to be what it is. ”
Monk Wuhua nodded, "Although I don't know if they took the initiative to become birdmen, or if they became birdmen by mistake, in short, it is always right to look at the paintings on the wall from left to right, let's go to other places to see." ”
Ah Tao was put on a jade pendant by the flowerless monk, "I injected my consciousness into the jade pendant, even if we are separated here, I can find you." ”
"I'm sorry to get you in trouble by letting you come in with me. ”
"No hassle. "If he encounters this kind of scene alone, he will come in and take a look, even if he doesn't have the idea of vowing to become an immortal, but if he wants to spend his life here, he must improve his cultivation, otherwise he can only be bullied in his old age.
As we walked forward, the atmosphere of life in front of us became more and more intense, but the road stopped abruptly, and the front seemed to have experienced a landslide, and most of the buildings were buried.
The flowerless monk added a few more night pearls in the air, allowing the two of them to see the scene ahead more clearly.
The buildings are buried in hard rock, and even in the crevices of the rocks, there is not the slightest soft soil and silt.
"It's not a landslide, it's more like a stone falling from the sky. ”
In the five elements of the golden spell, there is the mountain moving technique, the mountain moving technique is the name given by A Tao, in the book introduction, this method can move the stone elsewhere to the designated position, this method is practiced to the extreme, there is the ability to move the mountain in the east directly to the west, it is really the art of moving mountains and reclamation.
The two of them went to look elsewhere again, and found that the place was already bare, not at all like the forest trees painted on the wall.
Returning to the vicinity of the rock, it was finally confirmed that there were people here who had fought fiercely.
Jin Kemu, wood makes fire and Kejin, there were really no tricks in the past, and it was easy to learn and understand, no wonder you can become an immortal in more than 20 years.
Ah Tao sat on a stone casually, playing with the sleeves of the flowerless monk, "It seems that the tribe here has been exterminated, we can take a look at it at will." ”
Wuhua nodded, still clutching Adola tightly.
"Don't take it lightly, I just saw something hidden by the rocks, do you want me to open it?"
"Yes," Tao smiled and nodded.
For people whose cultivation is much higher than his own, Ah Tao has no concept of their specific strength, and only simply and rudely classifies them into one category, the high priest, the sect master, and the uncles of the Bone Painting Sect all belong to this category.
As for Wuhua, Ah Tao has always felt that his cultivation is higher than him, but not to the point that she can't measure it, and now seeing that the rock is in his true fire, it won't take a while to fall apart, only to realize that Wuhua is the high priest's generation, and he doesn't even know the true strength of others and likes him, and he is really bold enough.
After the stones in the upper and middle layers were turned into powder by the flowers, several more pictures appeared in front of the two of them.
These pictures are a continuation of the pictures on the wall, "It turns out that the birdman is looking up to the sky to worship the sun." ”
The slender fingers of the flowerless monk dotted a few places on the painting, "There are a few horizontal lines drawn near the stomachs of these birdmen, which should express the changes in their stomachs."
Do you remember the picture we saw on the wall? The birdman in the middle is looking up to the sky with his mouth open, and the birdmen around him are sitting on the ground with something in their hands, probably making a birdcage. ”
The second painting is the most common scene of Ah Tao in the mortal village, where people who have hens in their homes always have shelves for eggs, and every time the hen lays eggs, the eggs are put into the egg rack.
The only difference is that the eggs laid by the birdman do not need to be incubated in the egg rack to break out of the shell by themselves, and the content in this painting is that the birdman in the egg rack breaks out of the shell.
The third picture shows the birdmen being kept in different birdcages, one of which is the most delicate and only one birdman, and the other birdhouses are ordinary and more than a dozen birdmen.
The food they fed to the birdman was exactly the same, but in the fourth picture, you can see that the food was exactly the same for the first few days when the birdman broke out of his shell, but after a few days, except for the birdman in the delicate birdcage, the other birdmen began to eat other things.
In the fifth picture, the bird-man in the delicate bird-cage has more brilliant feathers than the other birdmen, and is more slender and taller.
In the fifth picture, the birdman who eats alone grows up to become the king of the tribe.
The story doesn't end here, but the stone carvings that follow are hidden by the rocks.
"No flowers, move the rocks down there!"
"Don't you think the further down we go, the more we feel the coolness?"
Even if Ah Tao's divine sense is not as good as Wuhua, it is also the leader of her generation, and she has already felt the dark aura coming from her feet, but there are no flowers on the side, so she is not afraid at all.
"I've been curious since I was a child, but I'm not too bold and not very capable, so I can only satisfy my curiosity when I'm accompanied by someone."
"All right, but everything has to be left to me. ”
Wuhua was helpless, just holding Ah Tao with one hand and exerting real fire with the other, he knew that Ah Tao would slowly become stronger, and one day she would be able to go where she wanted to go without anyone else.
What kind of place this is, he is probably sure, even if he can find the treasure of the Yongxia tribe, the contents are most likely not suitable for them.
But Ah Tao's dependence gives him a sense of security, and he is satisfied if this taste stays for a second longer.
After the rock was cleared, a downward staircase appeared in front of the two, the staircase was wide and braved by the yin wind, like a road to the netherworld.
"Didn't you say you wanted to go down, why were you stunned?" asked Wuhua gently.
"I don't feel the danger, but I just feel fear, do you say it's the devil or the heavens?"
"I never believed in God's advice, even if there was real danger, I was there. ”
These words came out of Wuhua's mouth, which was very convincing, if you didn't think about the things that Monk Wuhua did, he was a person worth relying on.
"Sounds like you have a lot of ways to save your life. ”
"A person like me who stirs up trouble everywhere would have died long ago if he hadn't had some means to hide. "Wuhua passed some aura close to her body to help Ah Tao resist the cold.
The pattern is depicted on both sides of the staircase, and the two come to the painting and discuss it again.
"The birdman standing on the reef in the distance in the corner, the color is very complicated, but I don't know if it is because of the preservation of the mural or the original, the birdman's feathers are not luster, it can be seen that he is slender, and he should not be an ordinary birdman. ”
"Maybe it's another bird king who believes in the bird god tribe, maybe he's lost, maybe his tribe is destroyed. ”
In the next picture, the injured Bird King wants to come to the island to recuperate, but is attacked by the birds on the island, and the Bird King flees.
In the penultimate picture, the injured Bird King attacked the Bird King of the Yongxia tribe and threw the body of the Bird King of the Yongxia tribe, and finally the injured Bird King made his whole body wet.
In the penultimate picture, the birdmen saw that the wings of the bird king were wet and could not fly, so they stepped forward to comb the feathers of the bird king with his tongue.
In the last picture, after the feathers of the injured bird king are dried, he becomes the new bird king of the Yongxia tribe, and the birdmen of the Yongxia tribe are not aware of it at all.
After reading these pictures, Ah Tao felt the deepest, "Are the eyes of these birdmen bad?" ”
"They should be able to tell each other by their sense of smell. Wuhua shook her head in confusion, "People are much smarter than birdmen, I really don't know if they regret becoming birdmen?"
