Chapter 20
My intuition is very accurate.
Next, we dug two pieces of white bones in the soil layer around the large millstone. Looking at the outline, it looked like part of the human skull, which was crushed.
This confirms my guess.
Back then, this big millstone crushed someone to death!
I don’t know what this guy is called, but Sun Wukong has only been suppressed for five hundred years, but he has been suppressed for seven hundred years. It’s so miserable.
At that time, the transporter might be in a hurry, so he hurriedly threw away two handfuls of lead money and left, but he still didn't come back.
There is no market for the Ming lead money in the collection circle, and no one wants it. The dozens of lead money found here are also of bad quality, so we didn't take it when we left.
"Uncle Fu, what are you doing?"
When I was about to leave, I suddenly saw Lao Fu standing in front of the big millstone. He covered his chest with his left hand, patted his forehead with his right hand, bent down slightly, and muttered a few unintelligible sounds in his mouth. The whole thing was moved, a bit like a lama in Tibetan areas salute.
"nothing."
Lao Fu stood up straight, carrying his big bamboo basket on his back and smiled, "This man is so pitiful. I will give him a gift with the etiquette here, which is considered a salvation."
"Oh, Brother Yu, aren't you good at saving power?"
"I can't do it."
Brother Yu's hair had grown a thin layer. He said, "I can't remember the Ksitigarbha Sutra and the Sutra of Rebirth. It's hard to save a cat, let alone save people."
Leaving here and continuing to go on the road, I asked curiously and asked me how much I gave Lao Fu to be the guide.
Putting your head out four fingers means 40,000 yuan.
This is a lot. I guess Lao Fu helped others as a guide in the past, but no one gave him so much.
Based on the average monthly income of Kangding Muya, 40,000 yuan is at least three years of salary for the people here.
We camped next to Dulong River in the evening, and we expected to walk to the mysterious basin mentioned by Lao Fukou tomorrow. A fire was set up by the river. I was eating dry food, but suddenly.
At a speed that was almost visible to the naked eye, the whole sky suddenly turned dark! It was gloomy.
Douyazi bit the dried baked cake in his mouth. He raised his head and stared at the sky wide. He said, "Hold the grass! Is this a dog eating the moon? No, it's a Tiangou eating the moon!"
Brother Yu also looked up and looked at the sky blankly and said, "Yes, this is a total lunar eclipse."
"Aowu...!"
Suddenly, a melodious wolf cries came from deep in the woods!
Then I heard the sound of riding a horse, and there seemed to be countless people screaming strangely.
Hearing this voice, Lao Fu's face changed drastically and he said sternly: "Professor Wang! Run away quickly! Don't take things! Turn off the fire! Run away quickly! The people who eat people are here!"
"No! It's too late to run now!"
Before I could react to what was going on, I saw Lao Fu carrying his bamboo basket.
A total lunar eclipse occurred, and the surroundings were dark, and only the small fire we had created illuminated the surroundings.
“Oh oh oh!”
Accompanied by strange screams, a group of black shadows appeared not far away. They held up torches and were riding horses, making strange noises in their mouths.
Lao Fu was frightened and sweated heavily. He gasped and said, "It's too late, I can't run away! It's Sherpa!"
"I know some simple Sherpa language, don't talk later!"
As soon as Lao Fu finished speaking, these people rushed over.
They formed a circle and surrounded us in an instant.
“Oh oh oh!”
These men were barefoot and barefoot, wearing only shorts, like savages. They had small braids on their heads, their eyes were cold and their expressions were fierce.
The crowd separated apart and two men came over to ride horses.
The man on the left was dressed strangely. He rode on the horse with a smile on his face. He was wearing a wide-breasted robe that ancient people wore. He was wearing a string of beads on his chest and his hair was flat. Compared with the group of people with braids around him, he looked a little out of place.
The man on the right is even more terrifying!
The man was shirtless, with a disheveled hair, and a seal-like thing was hung on his chest with a hemp rope. There was a scar on the upper part of his eyes, and the muscles on his upper body were bulging and arranged, and his body was as strong as an iron tower!
His braids naturally drooped, his head was raised proudly, and his eyes looked arrogant, giving people a feeling of wildness.
The man jumped off his horse, his height was almost 1.9 meters tall. He slowly raised his hand, and the strange screams of people around him stopped immediately.
Lao Fu swallowed his saliva, stepped forward and bowed to the man, and then tried politely to talk to the man in strange language that I couldn't understand.
This man replied, but I still couldn't understand.
Lao Fu ran back and said nervously: "We are in trouble! These people are indeed Sherpa tribes. Because of the total lunar eclipse, some kind of sacrifice will be held here in Dulong River tonight. He said that we have disturbed their sacrificial place and we have to pay the price!"
So far, three branches of the ancient Qiang people have been passed down, namely the Jiangba people, the Angren tribe and the Sherpa people.
In the Muyaxi Wu king Kao written by Mr. Deng Shaoqin in his early years, he mentioned the Sherpas many times. Mr. Deng believed that the Sherpas living in the deep mountains of Ganzi were close to the Dangxiang people. The number of people in this tribe was unknown. Some habits were similar to the primitive ancient Tangwutes, and it was difficult for ordinary Tibetans to integrate into them, let alone Han people.
In front of me, this strong man like a beast is the current leader of the Sherpa tribe. In their tribe, everyone called him "King of Thomas".
"Zhumi" means heaven and earth in Sherpa, meaning a man who can stand up to the sky.
In the outside world, some Tibetans also call him "Jiangdamo". Those who know Tibetan should know the meaning of this transliteration, which means "King of the Deep Mountains".
The small seal hanging on his chest with a hemp rope is the certificate of King Zhami. This pendant is made of jade, passed down from generation to generation by Sherpa tribe. Only the most pure and brave and fearless man in the tribe is qualified to bring this jade pendant and become King Zhami.
I have seen this seal with my own eyes, but unfortunately I can't get started. This thing should be from the early Yuan Dynasty, with four very ancient characters "Siba" engraved on it.
I didn't know what the meaning of the word was, but later I accidentally saw a colored rubbing of this small seal in the second half of the book (Ancient Shaanxi Seal) published by Sanqin Publishing House in 2001.
I wondered where this author got the rubbing of this seal. He marked it as "the jade seal of the early Yuan Dynasty", and also marked it as four Siba's meanings, which are "King of the North".
Strictly speaking, I think it should be marked, "Zhumi King Seal" is more suitable.
According to historical records, this thing was given to the Sherpa leader hundreds of years ago by Genghis Khan himself and belongs to the first-class object.
Having said that, after we were surrounded by these people, Lao Fu was in a panic and frustrated to explain.
Although I don’t understand, Lao Fu should mean: “Sorry, we don’t know that this is the territory for your Sherpas to conduct activities! We apologize and if necessary, we are willing to make compensation within our ability.”
King Mi seemed to understand Lao Fu's words. This person's figure is one size bigger than Brother Yu, and I feel it's almost the same as Red Eyes.
