Ordinary people have to find a place to eat when they meet and talk about things. Xiao Nanzhu had already eaten lunch, but seeing the big man in front of him looking very hungry, he thought about whether to find a restaurant and sit down slowly. Said that he had a lot of questions about his life experience in his heart, so he thought about taking something out of the mouth of this self-proclaimed clan, but just as he opened his mouth, he wanted to ask this kid what he planned to eat, this big man Immediately, he said something familiar to him.
"Brother, oh please give me a spicy hot pot!"
With a strong local accent, it sounds kind of friendly. Ji Zai knew that he was from the southern region by hearing the accent. Xiao Nanzhu nodded and agreed. The hot and spicy hot shop, the smell of hot dishes accompanied by the stinging sound of swallowing complements this small shop. At this moment, Xiao Nanzhu and Ji Zai are sitting in front of this small greasy dining table, and when they see this kid, As if licking the bowl clean, Xiao Nanzhu smiled thoughtfully with a cigarette in his mouth,
"Yo, are you full?"
"Hey, full, full."
After ordering a large pot of Mala Tang, Ji Zai burped his face full of satisfaction after eating this meal, but seeing the boy's heartless appearance, Xiao Nanzhu moved closer to him and then lowered his pressure. The voice spoke slowly,
"Then let's talk about serious business now, I'm running out of patience, who are you, where did you come from, why do you think I'm the person you're looking for..."
When Xiao Nanzhu's voice fell, Ji Zai subconsciously stood tall. He felt that Xiao Nanzhu in front of him would not be easy to offend at first sight. Even though the two of them were fellow villagers, he did not dare to rashly offend him. He was tall and burly by nature, and when he was sitting, he also looked a lot taller for ordinary people. At this moment, when he sat upright, Xiao Nanzhu also pursed his lips and seriously prepared to listen to what he planned to say to him. , And just as he was waiting for Ji Zai to open his mouth full of doubts, he saw that the mysterious young man first folded his hands and chanted a spell that he didn't understand, and then fished it out of his neck. A copper lock that is almost identical to that of Xiao Nanzhu.
"Do you have this too?"
His voice was inevitably tinged with surprise. Xiao Nanzhu had been chasing the clue of the copper lock before, looking for clues of the ancient text. Now that he can make a new breakthrough, it is naturally a move in his heart, and he immediately took the lock. He checked it out in his hand, and when he saw his reaction, Ji Zai, who had always seemed stupid and lacking in IQ, smiled and nodded, slapped the copper lock on the table and said,
"Why don't I have it! If you have me, I will! Didn't I say earlier that we are brothers in the same clan!! Your name is A Xiao, and you are from my clan. When you were a child, you were kidnapped and sold by people outside the mountains. I've been looking for you for a long time. In our clan, all the eldest members of the family have this on their bodies. Inside is the record of our ancestors driving away the orc Chi You - a skeleton on their body. The Chiyou people are born with copper and iron bones. Things can not only deter beasts, protect our safety, but also exorcise evil spirits and bring blessings, so every household will pass this thing down when it welcomes its first child. This generation also symbolizes our family. The continuation of…”
Hearing Ji Zai say this, Xiao Nanzhu narrowed his eyes subconsciously. He is now convinced that this kid is telling the truth. After all, this lock is almost the same as the one he owns in terms of material and pattern. He is not surprised. It was his family who had been forcibly separated, and since the moment they met, he somehow felt that this kid was somewhat pleasing to the eye, but looking at the features of the two of them at this moment, Xiao Nanzhu really found some similarities. where to come.
Ji Zai has a typical appearance with wide eyelids and high cheekbones. His dark skin tone and strong and tall stature are indeed different from ordinary Han people. Originally, it was because of the mixed race that Asians had the common features of flat facial features like today. This is especially obvious in neighboring countries with more complex ethnic groups such as Japan and South Korea. However, in ancient times, the orthodox Huaxia people generally possessed It is precisely because of his height and protruding facial features that he is much taller than ordinary people today, and Xiao Nanzhu, who grew up in Y City since childhood, although he did not pay much attention to this aspect before, sitting in front of Ji Zai now feels unreasonable. A bit of intimacy, which has to convince him that he does have the same hometown as him. As for why he came to Y City after being abducted and sold, what is this ethnic group that is rarely known to outsiders? Ji Zai also gave him the answers he wanted one by one.
"Our clan is now among the surrounding Miao and Bai ethnic groups. In order to have a serious ID card, the great witches in the village have been heartbroken for four or five years, and there is no time for the usual sacrificial activities, so the Holy Maiden called everyone. I went out to work to earn money. I used to be self-sufficient in the past. Now I go out to earn more money and the quality of life is better. You were not in the clan since you were a child. I may not see you either. If you ask me who I am, then I will tell you that we are of the orthodox Han bloodline, descendants of the Huaxia family. , he is known as the ancestor of humanity, he created the calendar, knew the five grains, made the old yellow calendar, wrote the almanac, expelled Chiyou, and finally flew into the sky by the black dragon and became a saint..."
Word by word, he told these stories that are familiar to all Chinese people. Xiao Nanzhu did not speak for a while but frowned and listened thoughtfully. He had heard some of these stories from New Year's Eve. Listening to it again brings many things together. Regarding his own life experience, it seems that he has always been related to this mysterious famous family, but he raised his head as if remembering something, Xiao Nanzhu thought about it, or put the mysterious font with his fingers on the liquor at hand and give it to him on the table Wrote it again.
"Do you recognize this word?"
"What word, let me take a look... Hey, of course I know this word! This is the script in our clan, we have been learning this script since we were born, and at the age of three, we had to learn a hundred characters from the Xuanyuan Stele. , it's hard for you to remember after so many years, isn't that the word 'I'!"
When he heard Ji Zai say this, Xiao Nanzhu breathed a sigh of relief. He had been waiting for the old Yang for more than half a month, but the old boy could not find anyone. Before that, he had no other way. There are still a lot of things he can't understand. It would be better if Ji Zai could help him, but before he could open his mouth, Ji Zai's next words made him subconsciously raise his head.
"Our text, it is said that this is the text left to us by our ancestor Xuanyuan. In order to keep some secret treasures in our family from being leaked, we have continued the inheritance of this text, but our family's secret treasures have long been I lost it. I heard that in the late Qing Dynasty, a state official used twenty buckets of rice to deceive our people from the hands of the famine. At that time, it happened to be the birthday of Lafayette. This official was in a remote area. Silver jewelry, I went to the mountains to deceive the treasures. At that time, the clan could not afford to eat because of the famine. A great witch changed all these treasures for rations. After that, these things were transported all the way to Beijing as In order to celebrate the birthday gift of that old Buddha, the villagers in the clan now know some magic and medicine except the great witches, but nothing else..."
"Then what are these babies?"
The intuition seems to be remembering something. The origin of the keel and the calendar that he found in the underground palace seems to have a reasonable explanation. On the one hand, Xiao Nanzhu thinks this is a coincidence. On the other hand, he still can't bear it. Zhu asked this sentence with a bit of doubt, and Ji Zai's thoughtful answer made him sure of what he had been guessing all along.
"I heard that there are many treasures, including our family's calendar book and the old yellow calendar, which are ancient artifacts that can drive the gods and maintain the order of heaven and earth, and the dragon skeleton of the black dragon that our ancestors used to fly in the sky. It is said that The keel has the spirit of the Dragon God, and I heard that there is also a very old Tai Sui, but it is said that the old Buddha has not had time to eat, and the Qing Dynasty will be finished, so this Tai Sui also disappeared..."
Familiar nouns sounded in his ears, Xiao Nanzhu blinked slightly stiffly but raised his eyebrows in disbelief. He felt that since he returned from the army, everything had already begun. Sliding forward along a doomed Gutino trajectory, if it is a coincidence that he and Hua Chao entered the underground palace by mistake, then Tai Sui's return to his hands again is an inexplicable coincidence, perhaps because of doing these things. It was him, so everything went on so smoothly, but he found the three treasures of the mysterious family under such circumstances that he did not expect. Just thinking of this, he felt Couldn't help but chuckle.
"These three things are in my hands now."
When Xiao Nanzhu's voice fell, Ji Zai was at a loss for a moment, and after a while he shouted as if frightened,
"Really!! Ah Xiao!! No way!! My mom!!"
Ji Zai's shouting made Xiao Nanzhu irritably raise his foot and give him a kick. After repeatedly emphasizing that he did not lie to anyone, Ji Zai's mouth was so happy that his ears were so happy that he seemed to be born with self-confidence. Come to know, after three or two sentences and Xiao Nanzhu confirmed that they are really clansmen, they seem to regard him as a good buddy, Xiao Nanzhu has no opinion on this, after all, he has to discuss with him how to deal with this. The three things were returned to the people in the deep mountains to some extent, but just after he asked Ji Zai a question as if he suddenly remembered something, Ji Zai's answer made Xiao Nanzhu start to think carefully about his return. Feasibility of ancestry.
"Let me ask you something, your name is Ji Zai, so what was my original name?"
"Hey! You even forgot about this! Your name is Ji Dan! Your nickname is Axiao!! So everyone is called Xiaodan!! o(*≧▽≦)ツ"
"… "
