Chapter 326: Forbidden Land
Because Wang An wanted to follow them to see what the hell this group of people was doing?
Then Wang An said to Hearing Da Hei beside him: "See those two people? Don't bark anymore, don't let them know we are following behind."
After Wang An finished speaking, he patted Hearing Da Hei's head lightly.
Just at this moment, Wang An suddenly thought of Seeing Mu Xueli and Wang Li. If there were no accidents, these two might still be aiming with their guns.
Wang An patted his head, looked at the two people who had already disappeared in front, and his eyes rolled, so he took out the pencil and small notebook from his backpack.
Tearing off a page, Wang An wrote in a dragon-and-snake-like script: "You two continue working, tie Hearing Da Hei well, and after finishing work, make the meal. I'll be back soon — Wang An"
After writing, Wang An put the pencil and notebook into his pocket and looked at Hearing Da Hei's mouth.
Wang An felt that if this paper was held by Hearing Da Hei, it might soon be wet.
So, Wang An said to Hearing Da Hei: "You go back now and hand this to them. Don't lose it."
Then Wang An took out the telescope from the canvas bag in front of Hearing Da Hei, hung it around his neck, and stuffed this piece of paper into it.
After Wang An finished speaking, he tied a knot on the strap of the canvas bag to make the strap shorter, and then hung it on Hearing Da Hei's neck.
After hanging the canvas bag, Wang An said to Hearing Da Hei again: "Alright Hearing Da Hei, go back. After you go back, you don't need to chase over again."
Hearing Da Hei barked at Wang An and turned to run back.
Wang An watched Hearing Da Hei's disappearing figure and felt more and more that this Hearing Da Hei was really too destined with him.
Putting away his thoughts, Wang An turned and chased along the footprints again.
Wang An's speed was much faster than these two, so a few minutes later, Wang An discovered the backs of these two people again.
But in order not to be discovered by the other party, Wang An walked and stopped, occasionally having to hide behind a tree for a while.
And just when Wang An caught up with these two people again.
Seeing Mu Xueli and Wang Li discovered that Hearing Da Hei had returned alone, but they didn't see Wang An. The two looked at each other, their faces changed at the same time, and they put down their guns and greeted Hearing Da Hei.
After running to Hearing Da Hei, Seeing Mu Xueli asked in a panic: "Hearing Da Hei, where is my brother-in-law? Where did my brother-in-law run to?"
Hearing Da Hei heard this and barked "Wang Wang," while barking, he lowered his head to indicate under his neck.
At this time, Wang Li was actually confused, but he saw the canvas bag on Hearing Da Hei's neck, so he took it off Hearing Da Hei's neck.
Although Seeing Mu Xueli had changed a lot, his psychological quality was still worse than Wang Li's, so at this time he said to Hearing Da Hei again:
"Go, Hearing Da Hei, hurry up and take me to find my brother-in-law."
Hearing Da Hei ignored Seeing Mu Xueli but barked at the canvas bag in Wang Li's hand.
Wang Li saw Hearing Da Hei's action, opened the canvas bag, took out the note, and immediately relaxed.
Then Wang Li pulled Seeing Mu Xueli's sleeve and said to Seeing Mu Xueli, who was still anxious: "Brother Mu, it's fine, my Fourth Brother is fine."
Seeing Mu Xueli was about to get angry with Wang Li, but saw the note Wang Li handed over.
Taking it suspiciously and looking at it, he instantly laughed, but complained: "My brother-in-law is really something, scaring me, hahahahaha."
Wang Li said with disdain: "You were scared yourself, and you still talk about my Fourth Brother."
Seeing Mu Xueli didn't refute, but laughed "Hahahaha..." picked up the rope tying Hearing Da Hei, and turned to walk toward the sled.
After tying Hearing Da Hei, Seeing Mu Xueli and Wang Li continued to peel and butcher the wild boars, but their guns were always placed in a place they could reach.
And at this time, Wang An also followed these two into a mountain hollow.
Wang An originally thought these two would go toward JY County, but didn't expect them to stop halfway.
What Wang An didn't expect even more was that it wasn't a holiday, yet these two would come to this place.
This mountain hollow is surrounded by mountains on all sides, and there is a small stream passing through. People in the entire DJ County, or even the entire Heilongjiang Province, probably know this place.
But there is no mountain driver or mountain caller who would gather here when entering the mountains. Even animals don't gather here.
Because this place is considered a forbidden land; it is the place where the conscience-less little devils threw corpses back then! These devils who were not human studied many viruses and did many experiments back then, so there were quite a lot of corpses.
It's just that they were also afraid of being infected by viruses, so they disposed of all the corpses centrally.
Of course, such a mountain hollow was just one of them; there were many large pits, deep and large pits.
And these large pits were also used to hold corpses.
Wang An stood in the distance, watching these two walk into the mountain hollow, and had to stop his steps.
Because the surroundings of this mountain hollow were sprinkled with a large amount of lime back then, so after so many years, only sporadic small grass grew, and each one was withered and yellow.
Even tree species with very strong vitality like bushes were not seen in a cluster.
However, apart from this circle sprinkled with lime, there was grass and wood growing further inside, and the grass and wood in the center were much more lush than those outside.
Whether it's superstition or something else, every twelfth lunar month and Qingming Festival, many people travel over mountains and rivers to come here.
Then in this lime circle, they light a stick of incense and burn some yellow paper.
Strange to say, it has never been heard that any of these people who came to burn paper were attacked by wild beasts; everyone returned safely.
It must be said that this is a huge mystery!
Helpless Wang An stood behind a bush outside the circle, secretly looking inside.
Just because of the obstruction of trees, Wang An basically couldn't see anything.
So, Wang An gritted his teeth, hardened his heart, and quickly ran into the circle.
When running, Wang An muttered in his heart:
"Heroic predecessors, I came here to do serious business. If you feel unhappy, take them away. They were the ones who disturbed you first, it has nothing to do with me."
After Wang An finished muttering, he ran into the circle, and then Wang An walked inside cautiously.
Finding a suitable place, Wang An squatted down and looked inside with a telescope.
Only to see in front, there were several earth cellars built on the open space, and beside them were several sheds and "cuoluos."
Earth cellar,
An earth cellar is where all the walls or half of the walls are underground, with a triangular roof or a flat roof built on top.
Shed,
A shed, also called a "cuoluokuang," was the main residence of the Hezhe people in the early years, which is the kind Wang An and Seeing Mu Xueli built back then.
"Cuoluo" means "pointed," "kuang" means "shed," and together it means "pointed shed."
For the Han people, it is mainly built with wooden poles and grass curtains, while the Hezhe people would use wooden poles and animal skins to build it.
Cuoluozi,
Cuoluozi, also called "xieren-zhu," was the main residence of the Oroqen and Ewenki people in the early years.
"Xieren" means "wooden pole," "zhu" means "house," and together it means "house built with wooden poles slanted."
Building a cuoluozi mainly involves wooden poles and animal skins; basically, grass curtains are not used.
Comparing these three types of residences, the earth cellar is still the warmest.
So Wang An discovered that the chimneys of those four earth cellars were all emitting smoke.
And those sheds and cuoluozi, only the top of one cuoluozi was emitting smoke; the others seemed to be just used for storing things.
Wang An held the telescope and didn't dare to move around, because Wang An felt that there must be quite a few people in these earth cellars.
This is clearly coming to a thief's den!
Reward if you have tickets, thank you, I bow my hands.
