Chapter 86

The scenery along the way is extraordinary, and I also recalled some long-ago events, so I turned my head to ask my brother for confirmation. He pondered for a while and said, "The ancient Qilan Kingdom."

The fat man raised his eyelids and asked me, "Have you been here again?"

"When we came here, the name has been changed. It's called Cang County. I can't remember more. I just remember that it rains every day. I'm an old man with old arms and legs, and I hate rainy days..."

"Wu Xie," Poker Fing suddenly interjected, with a look of unbearable expression, "You drank the local wine, got drunk for three days and didn't wake up, don't you remember anything?"

Before I could speak, the blind man laughed and rolled away. "I..." After thinking and thinking, I really can't remember this one.The fat man was still asking what kind of wine it was, but Poker Bottle said that it was brewed by the locals themselves, and he didn't know what it was called.

I tugged at his sleeve and asked, "If you don't know what it is, let me drink it! Why don't you drink it yourself!"

He actually smiled.

The blind man clicked his tongue twice, "When did you two reconcile? It's really a fight at the head of the bed and at the end of the bed..." He turned over and gave me the back of my head.The fat man stood up and shook his whole body, saying that he was going to an event to find a girl to chat with, and when he opened his eyes and saw us every day, he almost doubted life.By the time I realized what he meant, he was already far away.

I lay down again and squeezed behind Poker Bottle, the arm under the table wrapped around his waist and strangled him, "Why do you remember?"

It took a long time to hear him say, "I'm afraid I'll forget."

Arriving in Kaili at 5:[-] in the morning, the train slowly drove into the platform with all the wind and dust. The sky suddenly dawned, but the rain stopped.We ate a bowl of beef noodles in the alley behind the station, hired a local van, and rushed to Jianhe County.

The place we are going this time is in the hinterland of Leigong Mountain.

Leigong Mountain is regarded as a mother by the local Miao people. It spans four counties, and we must first bypass the entire foothills of Leigong Mountain in the east, and then enter the mountain in the southwest direction. The village we are looking for is still hidden deep in the mountains. place.

The national road is in good condition, but after turning onto the county road, it becomes very bad. The driver is a local, and the experienced driver has a shovel and a pick in the car. From time to time, he has to get out of the car to shovel and fill the pit, which delays the road. After a long time, the eyes of the fat man and I were hungry, and we went straight to the restaurant as soon as we arrived in the village. The place is humid and rainy, and we eat a lot of hot and sour soup. After drinking the sour soup, we still feel a sense of familiarity.This taste seems to have remained unchanged for thousands of years.

This gave me a sense of peace of mind, as if the illusory hope had finally been grasped by me. Occasionally, for a moment, I could imagine the future.

After dinner, we paid the driver the bill - the road ahead was closed to traffic, we had to walk in by ourselves.The fat man packed a bunch of glutinous rice cakes and carried them on his back. The boss could speak Mandarin and looked lively. He curiously asked where we were going, and when he learned that it was Jijiu Village, the boss's face suddenly became solemn.

"Jijiu is divided into the upper village and the lower village, which one do you go to?"

The blind man said, "Of course it's going to the village."

The boss said seriously: "Where can you go to the Jijiu Shangzhai if you want? Just like our locals..." His hand drew a circle in the air, "You can only go to the Xiazhai, and you can't enter the Shangzhai at all. .”

I exchanged glances with the blind man, he nodded, and asked the boss, "But I heard that people with tattoos can enter the village, is it true?"

The boss said with a smile: "There is such a saying, but in what age, no one is willing to get such a big tattoo. After so many years, I have only seen a few people who really have tattoos."

The fat man interjected, "What treasures are there in this village? The security check is so strict, it's almost as good as the Olympics."

Unexpectedly, not only was the boss not annoyed, but he smiled and said, "What treasure is there? It's just that the village is built on a mountain, and the transportation is inconvenient. Moved here, that stockade is a branch point, it can be regarded as a long-standing lineage, and the rest is nothing."

He looked at us and said, "there have been a lot of tourists in the past two years. If you want to see some original style, you can go to Jijiu. But you should just go to Xiazhai. Don't go to Shangzhai. There were people last year. He didn’t listen to persuasion, and was tied up and carried down from the mountain.”

"Bound? Lift it down?"

"It was still in the middle of the night, so I threw it at the intersection in front of me, and my clothes were ripped off, and I was rescued after dawn." The boss shook his head and said, "It's not easy to mess with."

I stood up abruptly, leaned into Poker Fing's ear and whispered, "Quick, find a place where no one is around, and I'll check the tattoo carefully."
