Savage Secret

() When Fengling saw us coming in, she immediately turned her head to one side, showing a look of indifference, I was the one who led the matter to Tian Yumin's house, the old cow lit the fire, it was the two of us who caused it Out of trouble, I hurried to her to apologize.Fengling looked melancholy and said to me: "It's the two of you, you only care about your own strength, and you insist on provoking those savages, what if they come back to revenge us?" At first I didn't put Fengling's savages in In his eyes, he thought it was just a nonsense made up by a group of mountain people who had never seen the world. Now that he has learned how powerful they are and suffered such a big loss, he naturally dare not speak big words again.

Fengling's whole family lives here, if a savage finds her one day, nibbles on the little girl Fengling's white and tender neck or scratches her little face, I will be guilty of a great crime, So, I hurriedly asked Fengling if she had any good solutions.

Feng Ling said sadly: "What else can we do now, the few of us have met the savages face to face, they must remember them, we can only wait for it to come back and kill us!"

I hurried forward and patted my chest to reassure Feng Ling: "A good man is a good man, and I will be smashed to pieces..."

Fengling stared at me bitterly and said: "It's fine if you are smashed to pieces, why do you have to implicate us?" Fengling's words made me unable to answer, which made me very embarrassed. The cow bandaged the wound and didn't have time to talk to me.

"Forget about Fengling, they didn't mean it, so don't blame them. Give them the medicine first, and then go to Zhiji Tima for advice. I think Tima must have a way to deal with these savages." I don't know. When, under the eaves in the distance, stood a Tujia woman wrapped in a green silk handkerchief, wearing an embroidered collarless full-fronted dress, a beautiful mother's skirt, and a half-foot silver chain inlaid with jade and auspicious clouds around her neck.I have seen Tujia people in Wushan, and I am not unfamiliar with them. Fengling said last night that she has a Tujia sister-in-law, so she should be this woman.She was carrying two large porcelain bowls, which were steaming hot, which should be the medicine she boiled for us.

Feng Lingcong took the medicine bowl in her hand with great reluctance, and said to the woman: "Sister-in-law, these people are blind and bold, forget it if they die, and you will decoct the medicine for them!" Lao Niu and I Immediately looked at each other, not knowing what to say.The woman looked at Fengling and smiled: "Don't be angry, it's getting late, and you have a long way to go!" Fengling then turned around and walked over, putting the two porcelain bowls on the stone table After the last release, he said to me: "This is a medicine for invigorating blood and transforming into Yu!"

I looked at the woman, and said to Fengling: "Your sister-in-law is so kind!" Fengling gave me a blank look, stepped forward to lean on the Tujia woman, and introduced to me: "This is my sister-in-law Tian Zhenhui, from now on you all will follow me." I'll just call her sister-in-law!" I sweated wildly, this woman might not be as old as me.

I remember that the surname Tian is a common surname of the Tujia family, and it is the descendant of the richest and most powerful chieftain in the Tujia family——Rongmei chieftain.However, I'm not interested in what this woman's name is. After all, I'm not from the Tujia family. I just wanted to know the meaning of what she said just now, so I walked up to her and said with a smile: "Can Tima subdue the savage? "

Tian Zhenhui said slowly: "Zhiji Tima is powerful and kind-hearted, I think he will definitely help us!"

Tima is a shaman of the Tujia nationality, generally held by the elders of the tribe. They are usually knowledgeable, proficient in witchcraft, medicine, astronomy and ethnic affairs, and are in charge of various things such as Tujia sacrifices. They belong to the Tujia nationality A powerful figure in the village.If we can get their help or advice, it will definitely benefit us a lot.These ethnic minorities have lived in Shennongjia for generations, and their understanding of the various strange creatures in Shennongjia is far beyond ours. What is important is that there may be many ancient legends preserved in their ethnic groups. Come out with something about Shennong Cave, then we will make a lot of money.Thinking of this, I quickly smiled at Tian Zhenhui and said, "Yes, yes!"

The wound on the old cow had been bandaged by Tian Yuan and Li Yongsheng. While drinking the herbal medicine Tian Zhenhui boiled, he asked me in a daze: "Old Du, are you related to that Jitima?"

Fengling and her sister-in-law Tian Zhenhui were stunned when they heard Lao Niu's words. I was thinking about something, but Lao Niu's words not only disturbed my thoughts, but also made me blush.This dead old cow, it’s not that I don’t know that I’m here for the first time. I don’t even know who Zhijitima is. If you talk nonsense again, be careful that I will take off your cowhide to make a cowhide drum, and beat you dozens of times all day long."

The old cow squinted at me, with a face full of dissatisfaction, as if telling me: If you really do it, you don’t know who skinned whom!The business is important, I was lazy to talk to the old cow, so I said to Tian Zhenhui: "Then where can we find Zhiji Tima?"

Tian Zhenhui took off the silver chain inlaid with jade and auspicious clouds hanging around her neck, and handed it to Fengling: "Fengling, I still want to take care of your elder brother, you go!"

We thanked Tian Zhenhui, and as soon as we turned around, Tian Yuan, who had been sitting on a stool smoking a smoky cigarette, immediately ran up to me: "Brother Du, Brother Niu, I'll go with you!" There was still a little bit in his voice She trembled, as if she hadn't recovered from the fright just now.I nodded and said with a smile to Li Yongsheng who was leaning against the wall: "Yongsheng will go with us too! Anyway, we are traveling, and having more knowledge may help us a little bit!" Yongsheng didn't answer, so I took it as his acquiescence up.

Fengling saw that we were all going, so she shouted to us: "That's not okay, you have to stay two people to protect my sister-in-law and my elder brother!"

Tian Zhenhui smiled and said: "The savage was taken aback just now, he must have hid in the ravine, he probably won't come today, don't worry!"

Only then did I think of the ancient popcorn machine that saved our lives. It was lying under the corner of the wall not far away at the moment. I didn't expect that this iron lump could still be used like this.I walked over to open it, and a smell of popcorn came to my face immediately, with some iron sand stuck on it, presumably Fengling and the others mixed popcorn and iron sand together, and took advantage of the huge pressure generated by the thing to heat them up. Blast out.Just the sound of this old-fashioned popcorn machine boiling can be earth-shattering. If iron sand is put in it, the power will be no less than a mine.

Feng Ling stood beside me, mocking me: "You don't mean to bring another pot of rice crackers!"

I involuntarily looked at my hands. Although the blisters on the back of my hands had been punctured, they were still in pain. I turned my head to Fengling and said, "Who came up with this idea?"

Feng Ling looked smug, and seemed to want me to praise her: "I thought, what's wrong?".

I smacked my lips, shook my head and said to the old cow: "Okay, how wicked!"
