Chapter 130 The Mystery of the Fox and the Snake
Chapter 130 The mystery of fox and snake
Actually, I can probably understand the second half of what Lao Bai said.
If this tomb really involves a civilization that has perished and is its final burial place, then it is probably extremely dangerous because it involves the tragedy of a nation or even a country, whether it was destroyed by natural disasters or died.
In the flames of war, the result will inevitably be the bloodshed of countless creatures, the bones in the field, the roaring of the dead, and the resentment that cannot be eliminated.
Such a burial place is full of resentment and unwillingness, and the deceased cannot rest in peace. How can there be peace?
However, I really can’t think of any civilization that has perished in this place right now?
This is the NMG prairie. Countless nomadic peoples have thrived here. However, the only ones that have perished are the Xiongnu, Rouran, etc. However, these peoples are nothing compared to this place. This place is indeed
The place where they once galloped, but they definitely did not perish here.
I was racking my brain and couldn't think of anything, but Lao Bai was so deep in thought that he seemed to be trying to show off, which whetted people's appetites. In the end, Brother Yaozi gave him a kick directly, telling him not to hold it in.
Only then did Lao Bai slowly spit out two words: "Donghu!"
After saying this, he gestured to the bronze dagger on the ground and said that judging from the color and texture of the sword, it should be an alloy made of pure copper and lead. Such bronze appeared very late. At that time,
The Iron Age has basically begun. Calculating the time, the Central Plains should be the Qin and Han Dynasties.
During that period, the overlords of the northern grasslands were the Huns. However, the swords of the Huns combined the characteristics of Qin swords and Han swords and were mostly straight-edged. However, this bronze dagger had a double-sided curved blade, which was very distinctive and did not belong to the
The Xiongnu sword can only be from another nomadic people on the northern grasslands at that time - Donghu!
This was also a once very powerful nomadic nation. It existed for more than a thousand years. At its most powerful, it was said to have 200,000 Kongxian people. They went south to harass the Yan Kingdom, and the war continued, but they were finally driven back by thousands of people.
Yu Li, then turned around and began to extort the newly rising Xiongnu, demanding BMWs and countless beautiful women, which can be called a vertical and horizontal conspiracy.
If I remember correctly, this nation perished at the hands of the Xiongnu and was crushed by the Maodun Chanyu, which gave rise to the majestic name of the Maodun people.
Moreover, the Donghu people inherited the Fuhe culture from the upper class culture of Xiajiadian.
All this is basically consistent with the information revealed by many old objects we found in the pastoral area!
Lao Bai said that the ancestral land of the Donghu people is in the Xilamulun River area. After Maodun Chanyu defeated them, two groups of people fled to the Wuhuan Mountains and the Xianbei Mountains respectively, and evolved into what later generations called the Wuhuan people.
and the Xianbei people. He believes that the tombs in the Greater Khingan Mountains may be the remains of the Donghu people who never migrated after the defeat. They are the last loyal ministers of this extinct nation. Both the time and the temporarily fired pottery are enough to make such a picture.
speculation.
"These guesses of mine are all based on what we have discovered so far, and they are probably accurate. In other words, the old fox in the Noisy Pastoral Area... is most likely guarding this tomb!"
Lao Bai's eyes were very bright and he said softly: "The Donghu are very mysterious. There is very little information about them in history. One is that there was a more prominent Xiongnu on the grassland at that time, so the world only knows about the Xiongnu and not the Donghu. The other is
, it’s because of their faith!
As far as I know, this nation believes in primitive shamanism and has some weird and magical methods. I once read a handbook left by a Han Chinese who was doing horse business in the north at that time. It was mentioned in it that Donghu is the link between fox and snake.
In this country, the magic of witchcraft kills people invisible!"
Fox and snake, I think this may be the totem of the Donghu people.
They believe in snakes, which is understandable, because if we really want to trace it back to the root cause, Donghu is somewhat related to the Fuxi family of Taihao.
His totem is the snake.
According to legend, the image of Taihao Fuxi itself has a human face and a snake body!
We just believe in foxes, but we can't say anything about it. It may be related to the primitive shaman's emphasis on animism.
Anyway, whether it is a fox or a snake, they are all from the five great immortal families. The fox is the Hu family and the snake is the Liu family. In addition, this Donghu man is good at witchcraft and Gu. No matter how I hear it, I feel mysterious.
Brother Yaozi hesitated for a moment and then asked: "Are you suspicious... that because the Donghu people have these weird abilities, they will not stop even if they are destroyed, and are preparing to cause monsters?"
"That's right!"
Lao Bai slapped his thigh and sighed: "I heard about what happened here that day, and I kept murmuring in my heart. I always felt that this old fox behaved a bit abnormally, and a few of his offspring were killed. This is really nothing in the family of the Five Immortals.
It's a big deal. Many of their descendants are just beasts with a little bit of spiritual understanding. It's common for them to run away and be tortured to death by blind people. I've been around the world for so many years, and I've heard a lot of similar things.
Don't you think this old fox has made things too big?
They are trying to deceive the secrets of heaven, and they are trying to kill everyone in this pastoral area. What the heck, aren’t they seeking death? There are people like Mr. Zhang in the world who are not dead yet. If the trouble gets bigger, there will be many experts to calm it down.
Destroy it!
Moreover, don’t forget that the Hu family has also seduced dozens of mature men!
What do they want these people for?
It is true that foxes can seduce people, but as far as I know, foxes do not seduce people and use them as dry food. Foxes are passionate, especially mothers, who yearn for the world and are very interested in love and love.
When she turns into a human, she will always come out to hook up with one or two people to cultivate her sentiments, but they are the kind who talk about feelings and commit suicide after breaking up.
This old fox is very good, he took away dozens of people at once, what is he doing? He is a good match..."
He talked a lot intermittently, and finally said: "I don't know why, I always feel that this old fox seems to be using the subject as an excuse, and now I have some vague clues about it. It may be related to this Donghu ancient tomb. Donghu believes in foxes."
, the old fox just didn’t leave when it was time to give way. Do you think this is too much of a coincidence?
Let me tell you, if you want to deal with this matter, you must first figure out what this old fox wants to do, and I’m afraid the answer really lies in that ancient tomb in the mountain."
I felt dizzy for a while after hearing this, and thought that this trip would be inevitable in the end.
It's a pity that the Qiye and the others couldn't understand what we were talking about. They were talking about Donghu and Xiongnu. They were all confused. While a few of us were deep in thought, the Qiye asked directly if we could start rescuing people now.
Already.
The complexity of the matter is beyond our imagination, and it involves an extinct nation. There are so many clues to this kind of thing, we are just grasping the thread at the moment, relying on the few brains that are not very bright at the moment, just thinking.
It was useless, so after a short silence, we still focused on the present, saving those who could be saved first.
So, Brother Yaozi gave an order, and the fellow villagers burned the antiques piled together.
For a moment, black smoke billowed here.
At first, the flames were still red, but later, the flames simply turned into a miserable green, and the screams were endless. Those who didn’t know thought we were burning alive people, and I was covered in chicken skin when I heard it.
Damn, the fellow villagers around me also had pale faces.
After burning the old things, Brother Yaozi said that this was just to remove the root of the disease. The next step was to treat the disease. Let the person with the serious disease smoke mugwort at home every day, morning, afternoon and night, three times a day, and then wipe the whole body with realgar wine.
.
This method is really useful.
Within a day or two, the pustules on these people's bodies began to subside, and finally turned into patches of black and green dead skin. At first glance, they looked like fish scales growing on a living person, and they fell off as soon as they were picked by hand.
After they got down, Xiao Zhe and his wife woke up. The black dead skin that fell off the bed was quite oozing.
The eldest daughter-in-law who wanted money rather than her life eventually died. As Brother Yaozi said, the abscesses on her body began to fester the next day and were itchy and unbearable. Her screams of madness could be heard throughout the pastoral area.
She couldn't hold on for a day. When the whole pastoral area was full of joy and hope, she took her own life with a kitchen knife and refused to give up her property until she died. In the end, she lost all her personal property.
After she died, Brother Yaozi mixed white flour with realgar wine and smeared it on his hands. Then he picked up the bronze dagger and asked Lao Bai to use a compass to find the sandy area in this pastoral area, and asked Master Qi to
He organized people to set up Aobao there, and finally he stuck the bronze dagger on Aobao!
As the saying goes, Ding Shui, the owner of the mountain, is the owner of wealth. Now the sand is the sand of wealth. In the final analysis, the reason why the pastoral area got into this mess is not because of the word wealth? The world is bustling, everyone is for profit, and the world is bustling, everyone is for profit.
Li Go, now placed here with them, the word "Li" is the best reason for ghosts and gods to pass through. Brother Yaozi built an Obo and inserted a sharp sword at Xia Sha. This is to declare the territory and let those orphans who follow Xia Sha
The soulless ghosts should weigh it themselves.
I have to admit, this trick is really wonderful.
Even Lao Bai admired him from the bottom of his heart after seeing it. He said that Brother Yao Zi has been with my master. He has made so much progress in just a few months. This method hits the seven inches directly, cleanly, and will kill you if you use it.
, with my master’s three-point style.
As a result, Brother Yaozi was so suppressed that his face turned red, and he said that this was my master's method. Before coming, my master had given him instructions and asked him to find something extremely evil and nail it to the sand to protect this place from the intrusion of ghosts and gods.
, we can go into the mountains with confidence to solve the problem. The reason for building Obo is because it is safe and auspicious, and it is the mascot of the fellow villagers. It can dilute the evil spirits, lest the wealth in the pastoral area is really damaged, and the fellow villagers will have no way to survive in the future.
Originally, my master and Brother Yaozi were eyeing my Tianguan Blade. Unexpectedly, they found an object like a bronze dagger midway. Naturally, they had a replacement. Otherwise, without the Tianguan Blade, I would have really succeeded in going into the mountains.
It's a burden, and I don't have the strength to resist anything dirty.
We stayed in the pastoral area for a total of three or four days. The sky here was still gray, the wind was howling, and the secrets were obscured. But at least the fellow villagers had joy on their faces and saw hope. After three or four days of recuperation, we
After adjusting to the best condition, I took care of things, took the horse and prepared to go into the mountains.
Qi Ye and Xiao Zhe did not bring strong bows and crossbows, but insisted on going into the mountains with us, saying that we were not familiar with the situation and would not have any helpers when we went in.
Xiao Zhebie was also in high spirits now, but there was a ruthless look in his eyes. He guessed that this time he went to the mountain to help, but more importantly, he wanted to avenge his son.
We see all this in our eyes, but have no choice but to think that if something happens, we will restrain him when the time comes. We are not familiar with the place and we really need a helper.
However, when we arrived at the foothills of Daxinganling Mountains, we were intercepted by someone.
A bloated figure stood in front of him, wearing a sheepskin jacket, carrying a shotgun, and a saber hanging on his waist. His gray hair was disheveled. He looked like a savage. Who else could he be but an old man?
"You guys are planning to go into the mountains. Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to get out?"
Old Diao Ye was lying in front of me, smoking a dry cigarette, and a stream of unpleasant-smelling smoke was sprayed into my face. He spoke very rudely, pointed at Qi Ye and Xiao Zhe to say goodbye, and said lightly: "How many times?"
You two are ignorant, haven't you two suffered any losses? With your ability, you won't be able to make it even if you go in?"
Qi Ye and Xiao Zhe were blushing, but they couldn't say a word.
This is a respectable old man, and Brother Yaozi rarely lowered his attitude in front of him. He just sighed softly: "We don't want to go in, but we have no choice. Our lives are at stake."
"I know that these kids have good intentions. I heard that you saved people."
The old man smiled, his mouth was a little flat, he smoked a cigarette, and stuck his pipe in his waist: "Let's go, I can't afford to delay rescuing people, so the old man will go with you."
This was something we didn't expect. With such a person following us, it was of course a 10,000 insurance policy. Moreover, he had really seen the tomb back then, but after all, he was over a hundred years old.
It also makes us hesitate a bit.
The old man was very free and easy. He pulled his hair, patted the horse I was riding, and said with a smile: "Come down, my dear, riding this thing into the mountains is no different from seeking death."
