1165 Night at the Stockade
The three of them followed Zhuoma into the village, and now it was getting late, Zhuoma said: "Don't go to other people's houses, just go to my house to rest for the night, tomorrow is dawn, you can take a look around with me?" ”
For Dolma's hospitality, the three did not refuse to follow Dolma all the way to her home. When the www.biquge.info arrived at Dolma's house, they found out that Dolma's father was the patriarch of the village.
Dolma's father was very hospitable, and judging from the patriarch's hospitality, the folk customs of this village would not be much worse.
Perhaps some valuable news can be learned from the mouths of these simple villagers.
The table was full of local specialties, and the two of them only ate a little bit, and they were vegetarians all year round. There wasn't much vegetarian food on the table, so I didn't eat a little bit of it.
As a killer, body odor is the most important, and if you eat meat often, you will have body odor, so a qualified killer never eats meat.
Liang Tiancheng didn't have any taboos, and drank a few big bowls of rice wine with the old patriarch. The rice wine here is very distinctive, and it has a sweet taste in your mouth.
"Drink. Even if you get drunk with this wine, you won't have a headache the next day! The old patriarch seemed to be a person who drank extravagantly, and kept persuading Liang Tiancheng to drink.
Liang Tiancheng was not pretentious, he drank with the old patriarch very boldly, and they chatted while drinking.
"I heard Zhuoma say that you have a certain interest in the unique Gu art and head lowering of the Miao Jiang generation, this time I came here to see if the tour is fake, and it is true that you want to see it, right?" The old patriarch was the first to mention these things.
"On the one hand, it is tourism, and on the other hand, if we can see it, it is also our honor, and we don't have to see anything!"
Liang Tiancheng said with a smile. I didn't deny it, nor did I show that I particularly wanted to see these things. Actually, they really didn't want to see these things, their purpose was to find someone who could crack the formation map.
"Haha. I've seen a lot of people like you. People often come over and want to learn Gu art or something. Their mental tricks are not right, how can Gu magic fall into the hands of these people. This is a treasure left to us by our ancestors! ”
After taking a big sip of rice wine, the old patriarch wiped the wine stains from the corners of his mouth and said, "But you are different, you didn't deliberately hide anything, and it's normal to have that kind of thought." Even if I came here, I would like to see it. ”
Liang Tiancheng didn't speak, and continued to listen to the old patriarch say: "Tomorrow, there will be an ancestor worship ceremony in the village, and you can also participate in it then!" ”
"Daddy. Outsiders are not allowed to participate in ancestor worship ceremonies. Dolma said on the side.
"Outsiders? What outsiders, they are my guests! The old patriarch glared and said, "Moreover, the old ancestor has never said that no one else is allowed to participate. It's just that no one from the village has ever participated in this ceremony! ”
"Daddy. I don't object, I'm afraid that the others in the village will not agree. Dolma spoke her mind.
"It's fine. Don't let them actually participate, just watch from the sidelines. ”
The old patriarch waved his hand and said, "Are you interested?" ”
"To be honest, we have interest. But Dolma also said it just now...... So we still don't participate, so as not to cause you unnecessary trouble. We'll go around early tomorrow morning, and don't disturb your ancestor worship ceremony, ancestor worship is a major event, and we won't follow this kind of excitement no matter how ignorant we are! ”
Liang Tiancheng said.
"Haha. I was right. In that case, then you can do whatever you want. ”
After listening to Liang Tiancheng's words, the old patriarch was very happy, nodded frequently, and drank tens of thousands of rice wine with Liang Tiancheng. However, he didn't ask directly, because Dolma was still around.
Liang Tiancheng has always felt that Zhuoma is not an ordinary girl, she is too wise.
"Old patriarch, can you tell us about the history of your village? I'm intrigued by these! Liang Tiancheng asked tentatively.
But what he asked made people think of what to do, and his attitude was sincere, like a person who was eager to learn.
"Okay."
The old patriarch didn't refuse, and Zhuoma on the side didn't show any signs of obstruction, obviously they didn't feel that there was anything wrong with this curiosity.
Through the introduction, Liang Tiancheng learned that this village was the birthplace of Gu art, and as for the head reduction, it was not local but imported from abroad.
However, it is proud that this village has also gone out of a group of people! The old patriarch of this group of people was about to talk specifically, and Zhuoma said, "Dad." Don't talk about these old things. Those people are no longer from the stockade, so why talk about them? ”
"yes. Oh, yes. Don't talk about them anymore. The old patriarch smiled and said, "In short, this village is a village with a history. You will definitely be able to gain a lot of knowledge when you come to this village. ”
"I didn't expect us to be in the right place. This is also the meeting of Dolma. Otherwise, we may have gone somewhere with our heads covered. ”
Liang Tiancheng said with a smile. The group of people that the old patriarch said just now attracted Liang Tiancheng's attention, but since Zhuoma stopped him from letting the old patriarch say it, he couldn't ask again.
But it is certain that this village has gone out with a group of people, but it is possible that that group of people is the one who established the Green Gang!
If this is the case, then it is certain that there are people in this stockade who will be able to crack the secret of opening the formation. Of course, Liang Tiancheng felt that even if someone could crack the formation diagram, it would only be rare. After all, not everyone is qualified to master such advanced things.
The old patriarch still had to drink, and it seemed that he was not having fun, and Zhuoma said: "There will be a sacrifice to the ancestors tomorrow, don't delay." ”
"Old patriarch, we're almost drunk today. I'll see that for now, right? After all, there are important events tomorrow? Since Zhuoma euphemistically said that he would not let the old patriarch drink it, then Liang Tiancheng also knew that he would stop here.
"That's good. So be it. Let's have a good drink tomorrow night. You must stay a few more days. It's rare for me to meet someone who is right-handed! ”
The old patriarch staggered to his feet and went to sleep.
"I've arranged your room. I'll take you there. Zhuoma got up and walked out, and Liang Tiancheng followed her out of the room.
There are few houses in the dark village that are lit up anymore, and the stars in the sky are particularly bright, as the lyrics say, sapphires fill the sky.
The room of Liang Tiancheng, Yini, and Huamian is next to the old patriarch's house, and on the other side is Zhuoma's room. That is, there is only one room to spare.
"Sister Yiyi, if you don't dislike it, you can sleep with me?" Dolma said.
"Dolma, I'm very satisfied that I can live in your house, what do I dislike." What conditions have you not lived in? But I really haven't lived with a girl. But now that she refused, where could she live?
"It's okay for the two of you to live in one room, right?" Dolma smiled, "If you don't like it, I can take you to my aunt's house to live." ”
"No hassle. We thought we were going to sleep in the open, but now it seems to be much better than we thought! Liang Tiancheng said with a smile.
"Well, it's not too early, you guys should go to bed early." Zhuoma took Yiyi's hand and said, "Sister, let's go to sleep too." Are you going to take a bath? I'll take you? ”
"Good!" Yi Yi nodded.
Hua Mian and Liang Tiancheng entered the room. This room doesn't look big, but the inside is much bigger than the outside. The furnishings in the room are simple, but they are very clean. The two beds were already covered with futons, and they looked brand new.
"Brother Liang, it seems that we have come to the right place." Hua Mian said as he lay on the bed.
"For the time being, that's the case. But it needs to be more specific. This matter cannot be made public. From the conversation I had with the old patriarch just now, I found out that they were very disgusted with people asking about them. Maybe there are a lot of people who don't want to learn Gu art or something, so they are on guard. ”
Liang Tiancheng sat on the bed, lit a cigarette, and smoked quietly.
"Hmm!" Hua Yan said, "However, I'm really skeptical about their Gu magic or something. Is it really that powerful? Even if there were, it was just poisoning people's food......"
"It's hard to say. After all, we haven't had personal contact! Liang Tiancheng shook his head and said. He didn't care much about any of that. The main thing he was concerned about was the matter of the formation map.
Now things are confusing, why the formation diagram was suddenly printed on his body from the wall like a tattoo, which made Liang Tiancheng think about it and couldn't think of a reason.
The bathroom in the village is very special, it is a specially built house, this house is closed on three sides, only one door can enter and exit, when the door is closed, the whole house is completely closed. But don't worry, the roof is not capped on all sides, and you can see the stars in the sky while lying in the barrel.
On the uncapped roof, there is a tool made of bamboo to make water, and the mountain spring water flows down continuously, not cold, but with some temperature. Dolma said that this is warm, and bathing in hot spring water all year round can drive away all kinds of diseases!
Yi Yi also felt the softness of the warm water, and the whole person felt in a strange place when soaked in the warmth, and that comfortable feeling made people lie in it and not come out.
"What is this spring called?"
"Our mountain is called Emerald Mountain, and this spring is also called Emerald Spring!"
"Why is it called Emerald Spring, and does it produce jadeite here?"
"I don't know much about that. That's what it's called anyway. That's right. If you go up the mountain tomorrow, it's best not to go near the source of the mountain spring, which is guarded by the mountain god, and if you alarm the mountain god, you will die inside! ”
"And such a thing?" Yi Yi asked with a frown.
"Of course!"
Dolma said with a smile. Some people in the village tried to enter the cave where the mountain spring water came out, but after entering, they never came out, and many people went in to look for it, and they never came out of the cave since. Therefore, the people in the village said that it was the place where the mountain god lived, and no one else was allowed to disturb it, and if they entered, they would be punished!
For this kind of absurd statement, Yi Yi will not believe it anyway. However, she didn't argue with Dolma about these things. What is so strange about this cave, then you will find out when you go!
