Chapter 2 Miao Village
He Nai pulled Jasper out of the broken house, he sensed it seriously, pointed to the distance and said, "It seems to be there!
"Let's go and have a look!" Biyu said with the initiative to hug He Nai. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info He Nai nodded, and they immediately ran away.
"There!" He Nai pointed to a thin figure by the small river not far away, who was sitting on a large rock blowing reeds, and from his back it was an old man, judging from his dress, he should be a member of a small clan. He Nai was just about to walk over, but Biyu stopped him and said softly: "Listen carefully, this rhythm and melody are originally cheerful, but strangely I always feel a trace of sadness." ”
Well, the voice was deliberately lengthened, and the tail note seemed to have a bit of a whimpering and lamenting feeling. He Nai said, and when he finished speaking, he was surprised, thinking to himself when he knew so much about music?
After a while, the music stopped, and the man took the reed sheng in his bosom, thoughtfully smoked the dry tobacco pouch, and after exhaling the smoke one by one, it soon dispersed into the damp mountain mist. He Nai Biyu glanced at each other and slowly walked towards him.
"Are you listening to my asparagus?" the man asked a little stiffly as He Nai Jasper approached.
"Yes~" He Nai smiled.
"The asparagus of our predecessors is very skilled and has a very beautiful sound, so we can't help but stop and chew and admire it. If you are disturbed, please Haihan. Biyu was afraid that He Nai's words would be abrupt, so she hurriedly interrupted him and continued.
"Hahaha~" The old man laughed, then coughed, and he finally turned his face to look at Jasper and Henai. His face was full of vicissitudes, and he looked like an old man who had been through the wind and rain, but his eyes were still very bright, as if he had a spirit of not accepting old age. The old man continued: "Where am I a senior, just an ordinary woodcutter in the mountains. ”
"Old man, may I ask what sheet music you just played?" asked Jasper. But what was amazing was that the old man actually shook his head, and then sighed: "Decades are like a day, so soon it has passed." This is what I heard when I was younger, and it sounds good, and I changed it a little bit. ”
"Oh, it turns out that my predecessors have studied instrumental notation deeply. Jasper said.
"Don't be a senior, call me Buna, the young people in the village often teach me Uncle Buna. The old man showed a smile and said in a low voice, he continued to look at He Nai and Biyu, and then asked strangely: "There are very few outsiders visiting our Miao Village here, how did you get in?"
"We came to Shennongjia for a self-guided tour, accidentally got lost, and somehow got here. Jasper began to lie again, pretending to be hungry and thirsty.
"Oh, it's not easy to get here, if you don't dislike it, you can go back to the village with me to eat something and rest, and we will arrange for someone to send you out." The old man said kindly. Jasper's performance finally worked, and she secretly smiled at He Nai, as if to say: How about it, there is a place to eat and stay!
"Thank you so much to the old man~ Uncle Buna, by the way, is this Qinglongpo?" He Nai asked with a smile on his face with a smile on his face.
"It's not. The old man shook his head and said.
"Ahh
"Uncle Bu, we want to go to Qinglongpo, our friends are waiting there, can you show us the way later?" Biyu continued to lie.
"Of course, it's not far from here, only more than 20 miles of mountain roads. It's getting late, so let's go back together, and we'll arrange for a few young men to show you the way early tomorrow morning. The old man said.
He Nai was shocked when he heard this: "I'll rub, it's not far more than twenty miles, and it's still a mountain road, if they take it all the way over, wouldn't it be to break two legs?" But at least it's a little gratifying that it's finally not far from the destination." ”
"Thank you, Uncle Buna!" said Jasper, bowing.
"Are you Han?" asked the old man as he led them into the mountains.
"Hmm!" He Nai responded.
"Oh, it's been here!" said Buna to herself. He Nai Biyu was very strange when he heard it, and thought to himself, what's wrong, is it great to come here?
"Uncle Buna, after listening to your asparagus, I have always had a question in my heart that I don't know whether to ask or not. Jasper knocked on the side.
"Oh? "People who are still ethnic minorities are more cheerful and don't like to beat around the bush.
"Your music is cheerful and light, but why do I always feel a little sad in it?" asked Jasper tentatively, but she didn't care if it was sad or not, only where the score came from, and she had to go around in circles to ask in order to continue asking.
"Oh, hahaha, the little girl is really good, she can understand my mind at once. It was where my wife and I first met, and it was this tune that I was playing, and she came singing it. Buna was still very direct. Lusheng is an important medium for Miao people to talk about love, whenever the wind is clear and moonlit night, the young man holds the reed sheng and blows a tactful and melodious tune, the girls understand after hearing the sound, and the girl who has moved the heart will be opposite to each other with a crisp singing voice, and then the two can follow the sound to approach each other.
"Wow, it's so romantic!" Biyu couldn't help but admire, but after a while she became a little melancholy, since Buna said that it was the place where he first met his wife, and he was playing there with sadness, it could only mean that his beloved wife was no longer there, and he was missing his deceased lover!
"I heard this song in the mountains in my early years, and I thought it was very good, so I wrote it down, but I never saw anyone playing it, so I think I must be a master of the world. Biyu didn't continue to ask, Buna actually answered by himself, it should have opened the conversation box when talking about music, Buna's Mandarin has also become a little fluent, it seems that he is proficient in Chinese, maybe he hasn't spoken it for too long. For He Nai Biyu, Buna's words were tantamount to cutting off their clues, and the two of them suddenly became a little worried.
After walking for about half an hour, they rounded several hills and came to the village where Buna was. The scale of this Miao village is still relatively large, the village sits in the north and faces the south by the mountain and the river, looking from afar, a large piece of small wooden buildings with black tile roofs are stacked in the middle of the verdant green trees, it looks very imposing and has a lot of life. In the stockade, the most conspicuous is a wooden tower of fifteen or sixteen storeys, still with a black tile roof, and the bottom three floors are a wide square building, which suddenly becomes an octagonal building from the fourth floor, and the higher it goes, the smaller it becomes, forming a pyramid-like tower.
After entering the Miao village, Buna and the people spoke Miao language, and Biyu listened to it with a big head, but He Nai could understand a rough idea, and he himself couldn't figure out what was going on.
"When strangers come to the village, they must go to Dawu first, this is the rule, please understand. Buna said kindly, and then pointed to the tower not far away, where the Great Witch must have been. However, He Nai Biyu found that the other people in the village did not seem to be so friendly, and they were all dressed strangely in He Nai Biyu, even if they took the initiative to greet them, they should not take a look.
"Could it be that no outsiders have been here?" He Nai thought strangely. At this time, Biyu secretly pulled the corner of He Nai's clothes, He Nai immediately understood what she meant, and he immediately asked Biyu with his mind: "What's wrong, Yu'er?"
"My Taoism is not enough, you have to keep your mind transmitting, you have to be careful, in addition to the witchcraft and evil sects, Miao Wu is also the best in the world, our Taoists are very jealous of them, don't go to the Tao." Jasper replied with her thoughts.
"Well, if we don't have malicious intentions, there shouldn't be any big danger. He Nai replied.
"This is not necessarily, we have to cheer up now!" Biyu glanced at He Nai and replied with his mind.
"This way, please!" Nabu said politely, as he led He Nai Jade up the tower. They went all the way up to the third floor, where there were few windows and dim lighting, and there were all kinds of strange things inside, and at first glance they were all kinds of ritual and sacrificial vessels, and when they walked inside, they would immediately feel a strange sense of mystery permeating their bodies.
At the end of this level, a man dressed in a wizard's costume sits upright (a bit like a shaman's costume, but with a lot of gold and silver ornaments on his clothes, which looks very gorgeous), and a charcoal fire is burning in front of him, and three apprentice-like people sit on either side of the wizard. This wizard's face is painted with patterns, and he still wears a beard-like ornament underneath, and it is really difficult to see the specific face, anyway, it always feels weird.
When he was some distance away from the Great Witch, Nabu motioned for He Nai Jasper to stop and wait, and he himself continued to walk forward. After approaching, Nabu respectfully knelt down and saluted Da Wu, and then walked over and put his mouth to Da Wu's ear and whispered a few words, Da Wu looked at He Nai Jasper, and whispered back a few words. With his super spiritual sense, He Nai could clearly hear the conversation between the two of them, and He Nai himself was surprised that he could still understand their general intentions! Nabu's words were very simple, how he met He Nai Jasper, and how they came to tell Da Wu. But after the Great Witch looked at them for a while, he actually said that foreigners could not be trusted, especially women who were too beautiful!
", could it be that Jasper's lie has been seen through by the great witch?" He Nai chuckled in his heart.
Suddenly, Da Wu's two tight eyes stared at He Nai, and his eyes suddenly sharpened, as sharp and scary as an eagle staring at its prey. (To be continued.) )
