Chapter 35: Ji'an Town (3)
In fact, I am not a local, and I have only heard of it from the local villagers, the reason why this place is called Wuzuka Ridge is that the legend is that in this mountain buried a tribal witch of the previous dynasty, the locals said that this great witch is extremely skilled, able to call wind and rain, summon ghosts and gods, and even move mountains and reclaim the sea. And this place is also the feng shui treasure place that Dawu chose for himself during his lifetime, so the place name is named after it. Murong Hui gave Liu Tiandong a brief explanation.
"Oh, no wonder I look at that hill is bare, it really looks like a big tomb from a distance, is there really a big witch buried in it?" Hearing this, Liu Tiandong responded in his mouth on the one hand, but muttered in his heart on the other hand, because this made him immediately imagine the half-human and half-stone thing in the cave under the hill.
"Could it be that the body of the so-called Great Witch in the legend? But how could the Great Witch be a young man? And after so long, the Facial Scripture is still vivid? Since it is the Great Witch Tomb, why is there no coffin that it should have? Why is his body petrified? And Cheng Feng, why is he ...... there?"
"However, after all, that was a long time ago, and it is impossible to verify whether it is true or not. Perhaps, it's just a story, looking at your troubled appearance, why take it seriously?" At this time, I heard Murong Hui say again.
Liu Tiandong naturally couldn't tell the reason for the accident, so he casually said a few words, saying that he was a foreigner, and he had long heard that the 100,000 mountains in Guidi were mysterious, and strange things were endless, and today he was attacked by an unknown beast and almost lost his life, and when he saw the mound-like hills he saw with his own eyes, he felt even more ghostly, so he asked Murong Hui about one or two.
They casually chatted about the customs and customs of southwest Guangxi, and after that, Liu Tiandong excused himself to be really tired, so he lay down with his back to Murong Hui and his clothes across the fire.
It's just that Liu Tiandong can sleep at this time, he closed his eyes and thought about his heart motionlessly, the intricate events, with the passage of time and space, it seems that it is not gradually organized, but on the contrary, it is becoming more and more confusing, he seems to be a small boat in the vast sea, there is no way forward, and he doesn't know where he is on the way back, so he can only follow the flow and resign himself to fate.
"Hey, what should I do next? Go to Luoyang, but what will happen when I get to Luoyang?" Liu Tiandong sighed secretly in his heart, and when the whole world was quiet, he couldn't help but feel sadness in his heart......
"38, 38, you must act according to the instructions of the mission, you must not change history, and you must not have any relationship with the people of your time that affect the course of history, otherwise you will never be able to return and be obliterated...... Find it, and bring back No. 37, repeat, find and bring back No. 37......" Just as Liu Tiandong was hazy and immersed in a state of sleep, he suddenly heard a burst of electronic sounds in his ears, the sound was familiar to him, but he thought he had gotten rid of it, but the facts were negative, he, they were still there, and they were always there!
Liu Tiandong sat up violently, opened his eyes wide and looked at the things around him in horror, and found that there was nothing in front of him except for the mountains that could not be seen.
At this time, the belly of the fish has been exposed on the horizon, and the sky is about to dawn. When the mountain breeze blew, Liu Tiandong couldn't help but shiver, and his brain was a lot clearer, and then he noticed that his face was covered with sweat.
"Hey, it seems like it was just a dream, but the voice, the voice is too real. ”
"Have you had a nightmare, haven't you? You've been muttering in your mouth, I don't know what you're talking about? It seems that you're not a little frightened!" Murong Hui's voice appeared on Liu Tiandong's side.
"Oh, yes? Maybe!" Liu Tiandong shook his head and said, his mind was still very messy, and the voice was still clear, but he couldn't say anything to Murong Hui.
"It's almost dawn, can we continue to hurry?" Then, Liu Tiandong stood up from the ground, moved his legs and feet and said to Murong Hui.
"Hmm!" Murong Hui still didn't ask, just hummed, then got up and sorted it out briefly, pointed to the mountains in the distance that were still very dark and blurry, and said: "Follow that road, and then cross two mountains, and we will be able to reach Ji'an Town at noon." With that, he walked down the hill along the rocky slope on one side
With Murong Hui leading the way, Liu Tiandong followed behind her and continued to march through the dense mountains and forests.
After a night's rest, although I couldn't tell what I had experienced in my dream, so that I couldn't distinguish the voice that seemed to be heard only by Liu Tiandong, whether it was real or illusory, and my mind was still a mess, but my body was a lot more comfortable, and the speed of walking was much smoother than yesterday. Murong Hui's estimate was right, if it was really at noon, a mountain town appeared in the field of vision of the two.
It is said to be a small town, but in Liu Tiandong's eyes, it is more like a naturally formed village, one or twenty wooden stilted buildings, seventy-seven eighty-eight make up the general outline of this town, a stream flows slowly, connecting those stilted buildings together, looking at it from a distance, it looks like a necklace that is not very eye-catching. A little more observation shows that the stream is one of the two water dragons that surround the Wuzuka Ridge, and I didn't expect that the current of the river would become so gentle and quiet as a virgin.
"Is that Ji'an Town?" Liu Tiandong asked.
Murong Hui, who was walking in front, turned around and nodded to him, and said, "Yes, this is Ji'an Town, this town is a Miao village, and more than 20 households and hundreds of families in the town are also Miao people, you should be extra careful when you speak at that time, understand?"
"Miao Village! Pay attention? Why?" Liu Tiandong wanted to ask Murong Hui, but finally arrived at a place where there were people, but she asked herself this, why? When Liu Tiandong heard Miao Village, his mind was the impression of a little girl from the Miao family, exquisite silver jewelry, and sweet and delicious Miao family rice wine......
pondering the meaning of Murong Hui's words in his mind, his footsteps followed her towards the town, and before he reached the entrance of the town, Liu Tiandong saw three or two women who were beating their clothes with something like a wooden stick by the stream. The costumes of these women also have obvious characteristics of a minority ethnic group, they seem to be very familiar with each other, talking and laughing while working, this kind of scene, especially for Liu Tiandong, who comes from the future, lives in the city, and has long been accustomed to the use of electronic products People are indeed rare, if you have a mobile phone in your hand, Liu Tiandong really wants to take a photo at this moment, and then send a circle of friends......
At this time, the women also noticed the two people who were approaching the town, and they all stopped what they were doing and looked at them. One of them stood up suddenly, ran away without looking back, and at the same time shouted loudly, and then saw that the other two women also threw down their clothes and mallets and ran away. Although it may be because of the dialect, Liu Tiandong couldn't understand what they were shouting. But the expressions on the faces of the women, and their unusual behavior, told him more directly, that they seemed to have seen something that made them feel terrified.
"Did they see the hell in broad daylight? Or did they forget something and hurry home? No, absolutely not...... That reaction must have been because of the presence of two of our uninvited guests!"
