At noon the next day, a group of people came to Jiuding Mountain.
Ren Baqian got off the carriage, and while instructing the guards to look for the Luo Weng Cape, he looked up at the mountains in front of him. The peaks and peaks overlapped, and he didn't know how big they were, but it looked extremely vast, with tall trees and dense primitive The forest filled the front with a wild atmosphere.
The nine tallest peaks in the distance seem to reach to the sky. I think this is the origin of the name Jiuding Mountain.
There are pleasant birdsong in the forest, and a few birds are seen flying from the forest from time to time.
"Teacher? What are we doing here?" Shi Gan approached Ren Baqian not far away and asked, while the other students got off their mounts and moved their bodies.
Tonglan stood on the back of the horned ox and looked into the distance, her skirt was blown by the wind and she looked like a fairy.
It's a pity that it's a short leg.
"You will know soon." Ren Baqian turned his head and said.
Later history records: In the 71st year of the Dayao calendar, Ren Baqian, a great pioneer, scientist, and educator, went to Jiuding Mountain with 24 idle disciples and successfully developed well salt, which solved the problem that the people of Dayao couldn’t eat salt. …
The picture in Ren Baqian's mind should be like the one above.
However, in order to prevent being slapped in the face, Ren Baqian felt that it was better not to say too much.
Luowengjiao was found soon, and a few hundred meters away, there was a wooden stake with a bowl mouth that was 1.5 meters thick and a height of 1.5 meters. The whole is brown, with a ring of red patterns on it, which divides the Luo Weng corner into sections.
"This horn is a good thing." Shi Hu picked up the horn and stroked it.
"How to say?" Ren Baqian asked curiously.
"The horn of Luo Weng is eight years old, and there are sixteen rings on this horn, which means that this Luo Weng has lived to be at least 100 years old." Shi Hu said.
Ren Baqian nodded, the same as the growth rings of trees.
Multiplying sixteen by eight, Ren Baqian was surprised that Shi Hu could get a number over one hundred so quickly. Shi Hu is very talented in mathematics.
Then Shihu put the end into his mouth and blew hard.
The sound is not as thick as the horns, but very sharp, like the long chirping of birds and falcons, straight into the sky.
Ren Baqian covered his ears, the sound of this thing was indeed quite loud, especially the sound was sharp, piercing straight into his head.
After the horn sounded, after a long time, there was a long howling sound in the distance, which was the sound of people.
"It means I heard that they are coming down the mountain to pick up their friends." Shi Hu said to Ren Baqian.
"What if it's an enemy?" Ren Baqian asked curiously.
"The words of the enemy will play a different tone. There is a special skill in blowing this. Foreigners don't know how to blow it. Ancient people would not do things like enemies pretending to be friends." Shi Hu explained.
Ren Baqian has always felt that people's hearts are unpredictable, just like soldiers never tire of cheating, anything can happen.
However, it seems that such things rarely happen in the ancient race.
Maybe it has something to do with most people being careless.
Of course, this is just a joke. In fact, the ancient people have their own set of etiquette and code of conduct, which everyone has to abide by for many years.
And the character of the ancient people is relatively simple, so there are very few people who violate it.
This is also related to the fact that it was not easy for the ancient people to live in the mountains. If the reputation is bad, other villages around will reject it, and when encountering some difficulties, the village will not even have a helper, and it will gradually disappear into history.
Over time, some rules have become iron rules, and everyone must abide by them.
Even after going down the mountain.
After waiting for more than half an hour, there was another long howl from the forest ahead. This time the distance was too close, only a few hundred meters.
"This is to confirm the identity of the visitor." Shi Hu explained.
Then there was a long howl.
After another quarter of an hour, the sound of swaying vegetation began to be heard in the forest, and then two figures gradually emerged from it.
"Are you His Majesty's people?" One of them shouted.
The two looked to be in their thirties or forties, wearing animal skin pants, with bronzed muscles on their upper bodies, a necklace of animal teeth around their necks, and a longbow on their backs.
"This is Lord Ren, the head of Zizhu Academy, and his disciples. This is a fourth-rank palace guard. This is a token." Shi Hu showed a token in his hand.
The two walked out of the woods directly, and instead of looking at Shi Hu's token, they looked around in the crowd.
"Isn't he from my ancient tribe?" One of the big men asked Ren Baqian.
"Master Ren is the husband-in-law chosen by His Majesty, the head of Zizhu Academy. You are not far from Lancheng, so you should have heard of it." Shi Hu replied.
"Oh, so it's him!" The man scratched his head. "I heard them say it, but I didn't believe it before."
Then he looked at Ren Baqian again and shook his head: "Too thin."
Obviously wondering why His Majesty chose such a weak chicken as his husband.
In fact, Ren Baqian is now 1.75 meters tall and weighs almost 180 kilograms. In the past few months, he has practiced martial arts and been beaten every day, and his body has also bulged up a lot of strong muscles.
Even on the earth, he can be regarded as a relatively strong man.
But in the eyes of these ancient people, it is still too thin, like a woman, which does not conform to their aesthetic view of men at all.
At least half of the width is needed, which is considered normal in the eyes of these men who can run horses on their arms.
"I've seen a girl named Nagu in your village before." Ren Baqian thought for a long time before he remembered the girl's name. "I said at the time that I would come to visit."
"What's the matter?" The big man continued to scratch his head.
"What is the purpose of your coming here?" Another big man looked around and asked. There were more than seventy people in the group, except for Ren Baqian, all of them were of the ancient clan, and they were wearing leather armor and carrying long knives.
Those who can carry this kind of long knife in Dayao are either rich people or people from the government.
Ordinary people can have a dagger that can be regarded as a family heirloom.
But there is not much fear. Just like the ancient people Ren Baqian met on the way to Damo Mountain, he has no fear of the government. You can't even see much respect, just like seeing someone from another village.
Most people in the mountains are like this.
After all, the first emperor also walked out of the mountains decades ago.
Only in the city, when exposed to more knowledge from the outside world, will there be some respect.
"I heard that you have a black water pool here, I'm going to have a look." Ren Baqian said.
"What's the point of that poison pool..." The big man muttered, and then said to everyone: "Then you come with me, but you can't bring that thing up."
He pointed to the carriageway.
"Just throw it down the mountain." Ren Baqian said indifferently.
Then the big man led the crowd to the side, and explained: "The road just now is convenient for going down, and the other way up the mountain is easier."
After walking a few hundred meters to the side, the big man got into the woods and let Baqian let people move the radio station, solar panels and other things, and just leave two people in the carriage to watch.
Then he started to walk into the woods with one deep foot and one shallow foot. The students behind him jumped up and down like a group of monkeys when they entered the woods.
Even though they were all born and raised in Lancheng, they have an instinctive closeness to the forest.
Tonglan stepped on the trunk and climbed up the branches, and then performed a performance of Tarzan for Ren Baqian.
"Come and chase me!" Tonglan ran straight to another tree, turned her head and smiled at the students behind her.
The body leaped forward, one hand propped up on the branch below him, the whole person rolled continuously in the air and landed on another tree, and then jumped again, not forgetting to take a deep kick and a shallow kick towards the bottom Ren Baqian, who was walking forward, grimaced.
Ren Baqian looked up at her making funny faces, picked up the video camera hanging around her neck, and watched her getting closer to the big tree, watching her stick directly to the tree trunk...
"Boom!"
The trunk that was about to be hugged by two people trembled, and a leaf fell off, and two unlucky snakes fell from the trunk.
"Hmm!" Copper Orchid slapped down on the trunk and landed on another branch, covering her nose with one hand, with tears in her eyes, trying not to fall down.
She is a genius, how can she cry
Ren Baqian put down the camera with a satisfied face, and captured the black history again.
After walking a hundred meters in the woods, a small path appeared in front of him. I don't know if it was stepped on by people or the path of animals.
From time to time, there was the sound of small animals being alarmed and running away in the nearby grass, which always attracted a few students to run after them. After a while, I saw Du Laoliu coming back carrying an animal that looked like a deer. In the light of the water, she looks very pitiful.
Tonglan immediately jumped down from the tree: "It's so cute!"
"It's quite cute." Ren Baqian nodded: "I'll eat it tonight."
"Okay, okay!" Lin Qiaole, who was still sleepwalking, almost drooled when she heard about eating.
After walking for more than two hours, the group walked out of the woods, only to see a wooden fence in the distance and an open wooden gate.
Inside the wooden fence, you can still see two tall turrets.
In front of everyone, there is a small stream that is not too wide. The clear and transparent water makes everyone feel a little cool.
Many students excitedly ran over to wash their faces and drink water as soon as they saw the stream. They were thirsty after walking in the woods for so long, especially jumping up and down like monkeys for a long time.
"Ah!" Before they were overjoyed, they saw a student shaking his hand, biting a fish bigger than his finger.
"Fingerfish tastes good, but it's too small." The big man of the ancient clan who led the way looked at the small fish in the student's hand and smiled.
"It tastes good?" Ren Baqian rubbed his chin, he had never eaten fish in Dayao.
"Is there a lot? Is it easy to catch?" Ren Baqian asked.
"A lot. If you catch them, put your fingers in the stream, and they will not let go. When the harvest is not good, the children in the village will come here to catch fingerfish."
Ren Baqian looked at the students around him, and felt that he would soon be able to taste the taste of this fingerfish, which is said to be delicious.
He has always been very satisfied with the ingredients in this world, which have a deliciousness that cannot be found on earth.
