The coffin was opened by several soldiers.
Long Piaopiao and others stretched their heads to take a look.
To everyone's surprise, the coffin was filled with Zhang family babies with unicorn tattoos.
The skin on the baby's surface was extremely old and wrinkled. The strange plants that had grown outside the coffin were wrapping around the baby's body. Under the baby's body was a thick layer of bluish-gray soil, which was the same as Qi Tiezui asked Zhang Rishan to collect before. The soil is exactly the same, and the soil is still shaking irregularly, as if there is some strange creature living in it, and this strange plant grows out of the blue-grey soil.
The Zhang family's eyes turned red with anger when they saw the body of the Zhang family baby in a coffin.
Long Piaopiao also murmured to himself.
"Immortal grass, native girl."
Zhang Qishan asked when he heard Long Piaopiao's voice.
"What is immortality, native girl?"
Long Piaopiao looked solemn.
"Before I set off, I once asked Long Yi, the former chieftain of my tribe, about some legends about the past of Eighty-Two Villages."
Zhang Rishan also looked anxious when it came to the Zhang family's baby.
"What legend?"
"Legend has it that six hundred years ago, there was only one village in the Eighty-Two Villages called Shikong. At that time, they had a magical plant called corpse-changing grass, also called longevity grass. It is said that this grass has many effects and is very miraculous. One of them The effect is that eating this grass can change the gender of the baby in three months of pregnancy. There is also a saying that eating this grass can make the gender of the second baby completely opposite to the gender of the first baby. And this grass The second effect is that you can transfer the life span of others to yourself."
Zhang Qishan looked angry.
"So the top leaders of these eighty-two villages have been passing on the life span of the Zhang family's babies for hundreds of years?! Then what kind of local girl is that?"
"There are several legends about Tu girl. One is that there is a kind of magical soil called Qiqiao Linglong soil. A creature called Tu girl will be born in this soil. Tu girl is a kind of creature that looks the same as a human but has the same appearance as human beings. The man-eating creature, the earth girl, and the seven-orificed exquisite earth have a symbiotic relationship, just like fish and water. It is said that in the mountains outside the Eighty-two Village, there is a group of bandits. After killing people, they throw people into a sinkhole. , the corpses accumulated together. Later, they were chased by bandits and fled into the sinkhole. They saw that all the corpses they had left behind were dragged into the soil, and their flesh and blood were sucked clean. I know that this place has become the hometown of local girls."
"Second, it's the legend of the mountain god that you told me before, Lord Buddha. Long Yi told me that it is said that this young mountain god who came out of the mountains and fell in love with humans is the Tu girl."
"The third legend is about how the Eighty-Two Village was established. At that time, there was an extremely serious custom of favoring boys over girls. They would drown baby girls in soju and throw them in the mountains, because it is said that drowning in soju can relieve pain. Before, There was a gang of thirteen people. They found a dying baby girl smelling of alcohol in the legendary native girl's lair, and they rescued the baby girl."
“At first, they thought this baby girl was the larvae of a local girl who would eat people when she grew up, so they wanted to sell it in the city for money when she grew older. Unexpectedly, the more they raised the girl, the cuter it became, and eventually they developed feelings for her. "
"When the girl grew up, she was extremely beautiful and became a famous local flower bandit. She inherited all the skills of her adoptive fathers. She is extremely cruel, murderous, and innocent at the same time."
"Later, the bandits analyzed that this girl should be the body of a baby girl thrown into the mountains. The little girl was active since she was a child and had a large lung capacity. The soju did not drown her to death, but instead made her a good drinker."
"When girls grow up, they naturally want to find their biological parents, so they brought thirteen people from the gang to the Shikong Village. For some reason, they killed all the people in Shikong, and finally destroyed the entire village. Burned."
"No one knows what the girl saw in the village that made her do such an extreme thing. In the end, the girl started as a gang of thirteen people and built eighty-two villages, which is now the eighty-two village. And these ten The three people, that is, the original thirteen high priests, their descendants passed down the tradition, and the supreme leader of this generation is the old man, who is their descendant at that time."
"There are two conclusions about this legend. One is that wherever there are native girls, immortal grass will grow. The second is that the supreme leader of the Eighty-Two Villages has been passed down from generation to generation to enshrine something in the mountains. Only the supreme leader of the Eighty-two Villages is qualified to know this mysterious thing."
Zhang Qishan and others looked in disbelief.
"So is this the truth? The mountain god we killed was the native girl who was enshrined. The supreme leader offered sacrifices to the native girl, and the native girl used the longevity grass that grew with her to transfer the Zhang family's baby's lifespan to him!"
Qi Tiezui was stunned.
"I finally know why this old man is so old. Maybe he has lived for a long, long time.
Zhang Rishan said angrily.
"This old man is really greedy. He tricked our Zhang family into taking the Zhang family's baby into the mountains to help him seek the ultimate immortality. What's so good about immortality? Why does everyone want to live forever?"
Long Piaopiao sighed in her heart, yes, what is so good about immortality? But doesn’t the entire Tomb Raider Notes revolve around the topic of immortality? The greater a person's rights, the more he hopes that his rights will last forever.
Zhang Qishan gave orders to his soldiers with an expressionless face.
"Dig out all these seven-hole exquisite soil and pack them up, and burn all these immortal grasses for me."
The soldiers of the Zhang family climbed under the tree, took out a large empty wooden box that had previously contained food, and carried it to the tree. The coffin was filled with the exquisite seven orifices in the large box. The amazing thing is that this kind of soil seems to have its own thoughts. , motionless when the soldiers were loading it, and then started to twist strangely after putting it in the box, as if the soil was containing a new soil girl.
After loading the Qiqiao Linglong Earth, the soldiers cut off all the longevity grasses and burned them to ashes.
Looking at the ashes of the Everlasting Grass, everyone remained silent for a long time.
In the end, Zhang Qishan spoke up and led everyone back to find the old man to settle the score.
