Mountains and seas can be flat

Those women looked at Fang Zheng for a while as if they were watching a monster, and finally they all left. Only Ji Liu, who was asked to stay, stood in front of him dumbfounded and timid.

"First take Elder Wuxu's body out for disposal, clean up, and then pick up medicine." Fang Zheng didn't have time to explain to the primitive woman whose three views had been impacted. That night he slept on another stone bed in the commune. The stone bed of Elder Wu Xu.Those women had been arguing outside to choose a leader, and they had been arguing until it got dark. Fang Zheng heard that Ji Liu reported that the women outside had been arguing for a long time and decided to choose a leader through competitions. item.They have to prepare tonight and start the competition tomorrow.

Fang Zheng was satisfied, the longer they spent, the more time he had to heal his injuries.The night was getting dark, and Fang Zheng fell asleep amidst the disputes that sounded from time to time.I don't know if it was because of being surrounded by women who were courting me before, or maybe this sixteen or seventeen-year-old body is just at the age of exuberant energy. He had that kind of dream. It looks like a layer of moonlight has passed through the top, the shoulder blades that are about to fly, deep and soft...

Fang Zheng didn't dare to turn that person's face away, which was one of the few things that Fang Zheng "dare not".

The dream was very chaotic, except for intermittent pecking and kissing on a smooth back, it also interspersed with his childhood memories——

"Why do boys pee standing up?"

"Why am I still wetting the bed at such an age?"

"That's not bedwetting."

The adoptive father answered them very well, with the patience, gentleness and profoundness of an intellectual. He taught him appropriately and properly in terms of the physical problems in his childhood and adolescence, and did not make him have any troubles.

And then what?There is no one to teach, and Fang Zheng's 13-year-old adolescent restlessness and his deviant swayed in the dark alley, interspersed with hiding under the loose floorboard under the sealed house, and secretly hid pages of documents Back on the ground, the back is lifeless and exhausting.

Too tired and too bitter, he rarely dreams.But occasionally, the theme of his dreams during that time was a pale and fragile intellectual based on his adoptive father, who was gradually engulfed by the blackness of the surrounding background, until Fang Zheng merged into the blackness and began to dream about venting his pain and sorrow. desire.

Does he like his adoptive father?Not necessarily, he only has respect for his adoptive father.It is a virtual shadow that refers to the image of the adoptive father. That shadow is pale, delicate, fragile and bright, and his tenderness and regret are poured into it.It is all the good expectations he has stayed away from.

Fang Zheng woke up between half-awake and half-dream, it was still dark outside, he turned his head and saw Ji Liu dozing off on the stone table.Fang Zheng asked her to stand by, but she didn't even dare to lie down.Fang Zheng coughed a few times to wake her up, and Gogou called her to come over.Ji Liu was still so sleepy that his eyes were blank, and he walked in front of Fang Zheng in a daze.Fang Zheng asked, "How long does it take for the sun to come out?"

Ji Liu lifted the hemp curtain and looked outside: "The water is still half full."

Fang Zheng's heart was moved. The simple information he knew did not include the tribe's calendar and timekeeping, so he asked Ji Liu: "What is the water hour?"

Ji [-] explained that a day is divided into five elements of "gold, wood, water, fire, and earth" to time the time. It is cold at night, so it is water time, and the sun rises in the morning to make everything grow, so it is wood time. At noon, the sun is the hottest, so it is "fire time". , the afternoon and evening correspond to golden time and earth time.

After the explanation of Ji Liu, Fang Zheng sorted out the knowledge in his mind. The "Five Elements Timekeeping Method" is an ancient timekeeping method of ethnic minorities.The legend of the more common timekeeping method in ancient times was invented by the Yellow Emperor, and later formed the twelve hours in the Western Zhou Dynasty.From this point of view, from the ground, this small tribe should not be regarded as the "Central Plains" at that time.

Fang Zheng went back to sleep again. The next morning, he heard the horned rooster crowing outside, got up and walked around to recover, and went out to watch the sunrise in this world.

There is no difference in the sun, except that the visibility of the atmosphere seems to be higher, making the sun appear bigger and brighter.He carefully observed the direction of the sun, avoiding direct sunlight, and soon discovered the strangeness.

The sunlit air is very visible, and there is a particular tree in the east that initially looks like an eyelash on the distant horizon.But the halo emitted by the sun made the shadow more and more clear. At first, Fang Zheng thought it was a tree on the hilltop in that direction, but as the sun became brighter, he found that although it looked like an eyelash, it was seen from the perspective far away from the horizon. To compare the length, if it is really that far, the tree is too tall... Fang Zheng can't measure its height, and the ends of its branches are hidden in the clouds.

"What is that?" Fang Zheng pointed to the eyelash of the horizon and asked Ji Liu, but he didn't really hope that she would know.But the woman looked at it, and was very happy that she could tell Fang Zheng the landmarks he didn't know.

Ji Liu said two words, and was surprised to find that the face of this usually calm young man twisted. It was clear that he had killed Elder Wu Xu yesterday, but now he heard a common place name. stunned.

"Jianmu."

Fang Zheng asked tremblingly, "Where is Jianmu?"

Ji Liu pointed to the sun in the sky and said, "Under the sun." Ji Liu became more and more curious, did this boy come from the east, and actually asked this kind of common sense for children?

Fang Zheng raised his head suddenly, ignoring the glare of the sun, and stared straight at the sun. The golden light burned his eyes sorely, and he shed two lines of physiological tears.

Ji Liu hurriedly persuaded him: "Don't stare."

The young man was really hurt by the sunlight, but he stared stubbornly, as if he was desperately trying to remember something.Tears rolled down, his face was full of golden rivers, and he let out an ugly laugh.Melting like a golden statue bathed in radiance.

Ji Liu looked at Fang Zheng worriedly, and wanted to wipe his tears for him, but he suddenly went back to the commune stone bed and lay down, buried his head under the sackcloth, trembling all over.

This is the first time that Fang Zheng has intuitively seen the "myth" in "Shan Hai Jing".The previous herbs and beasts will also be introduced in proven reference books such as "Compendium of Materia Medica" and "Shui Jing".

But Jianmu belongs to the "mythical category" of "Shan Hai Jing", it is the place where the sun lives.

Although it is very absurd at first thought, it means to think about whether the sun of this world will one day turn into a crow?Is it true that there is a deep abyss of Cangwu, and is there really weak water that is not buoyant under Jianmu?It also means to dream about the myriad kingdoms in mythology, such as Xuanyuan, Qingqiu, Women's Kingdom, Deep Eyes, Intestines, Qihu, Jiexiong, Yanhuo, and Zhou Rao?Can you really see the mythical monsters Xingtian, Lushu, Xuangui, Bifang, and Fuzhu; the legendary gods, Dijiang, Xunchi, Yingzhao, Wuluo, Zhurong, Gonggong, Yinglong, Bingyi? ... and many other questions.

But anyway, the thing actually appeared.

What does this mean?

It means that whether he entered the world of the "Shan Hai Jing" book or the real ancient time and space, it proves one thing: the myth of Shan Hai Jing is not an illusion.

"Shan Hai Jing" is a complicated and confusing world, and scholars have many opinions on its assumptions and textual research.Thanks to his adoptive father, Fang Zheng can recite a lot.Although he doesn't understand it all.

Fang Zheng's father put forward the "Mountain and Sea Great Country Theory" which was relatively cutting-edge and radical at that time.In order to recite the documents for him later, Fang Zheng also memorized the gist mechanically——

"The Classic of Mountains and Seas, which has always been regarded as a myth by us, retains rich historical and cultural information. However, due to the wars in ancient times, classics were lost in circulation, such as the famous 'Three Graves' and 'Five Classics' have been lost." Many contents of Shan Hai Jing have become mysteries that we cannot decipher... We can only infer its production capacity from the material fragments excavated in field archaeology. But we don't know anything about its spiritual content... Is it a simple primitive society, or A small country with a certain social division of labor, hierarchy, and order, or even a big country..."

Before the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties, there existed a splendid and huge high-level civilization, which is the assumption of the "Mountain and Sea Great Country Theory".

In the 60s of the twentieth century, Fang Zheng’s adoptive father’s assumptions were met with a lot of doubts from the very beginning. In addition to the lack of field archaeology at that time, what’s even more chilling is that after wars, hunger, and famine... from top to bottom They didn't have time to regain their confidence in national culture, and blindly followed Western dogma as their standard.

Western scholars said that the Xia Dynasty did not exist, so it did not exist.It is said that Chinese civilization is only 3000 years old, so it is 3000 years.If oracle bone inscriptions are the earliest writing, then pottery inscriptions do not exist.So many facts and texts are considered fiction or "not authoritative".

As for the pre-Xia Dynasty, the ancient times recorded in the "Shan Hai Jing" were only primitive people who drank hair and blood.How can there be a country.

Some people say that the "Shan Hai Jing" traces the history of a great country from 2000 to 8000 years ago, which is ridiculed by those "authorities".

——How could you have culture 8000 years ago.

——How could we have culture 8000 years ago.

In such an atmosphere, the "Shan Hai Jing" is all false, just a myth, a fiction, and a delusion.

The reason why Fang Zheng's adoptive father was criticized was "feudal superstition" and "disrespect for science".

Fang Zheng bit his lower lip and smiled strangely. Now, he actually saw "Jian Mu".There was no doubt that it was a tree of extraordinary height.

Perhaps other absurd records, like "Jianmu", exist in this world as rare phenomena.

Even a truly civilized "mountain and sea country"?For example, the "sovereign country" that this tribe is attached to, or the east side?How big is it?

There seemed to be a force slowly rising in his chest, allowing him to find what he was looking for, what he was looking for.

Fang Zheng couldn't help feeling guilty. Like everyone else, he once felt that the things his adoptive father studied were all fake.Until just after crossing, I still made this speculation.

With this kind of thinking in mind, even if he memorized those classics, he never distracted himself, just like a typewriter, he didn't understand it carefully.

Fang Zheng made up his mind and knew where he was going after escaping from this tribe—he wanted to follow the direction of the rising sun to see Jianmu with his own eyes, to see with his own eyes how tall it was, what kind of tree it was, and why it was so far apart. can be seen from afar.Even if the distance may be very far.There are no airplanes in this era, so you can travel hundreds of thousands of miles.A long life can be spent like this.

Let's go, after recovering from the injury.Fang Zheng said to himself.

However, Fang Zheng is very clear about the thoughts of these women. The elected tribal leader still expects to "cooperate" with the "Oriental people", and will not let him go easily.

The elected leader was Teng Mao. Fang Zheng was not surprised by this result.She was selected by Elder Wu Xu as a person who made small moves, and she herself was thinking about how to retreat. After all, she had eaten a few more years and seen more things, so her brain was not rusty.In addition, her physical strength is not too bad. After several competitions, she defeated Man Mao who could only rely on brute force.

When Fang Zheng, who was still lying on the stone bed at that time, heard the news, he regretted that they didn't delay for a few more days, and his body had not fully recovered, but he had to fulfill the agreement and pretend to "negotiate".

Teng Mao was the first person to be bought by Fang Zheng, and he did not deny his lies afterwards.Although it is not reliable when things come to an end, Fang Zheng doesn't care about the internal affairs of this tribe at all, and he is about to run away.

"Are you sure everyone else admires you? Be more careful." When Fang Zheng chatted with Teng Mao alone, he fanned the flames and planted a seed of doubt, so as to create chaos at that time.

"I won't stir up anything for the time being, I can hold it down." Tengmao inspected Elder Xuansi's comatose body, "Why is he still awake? Have you treated him properly?"

Fang Zheng immediately said: "Of course, but what can I do if he doesn't wake me up."

Teng Mao looked at Fang Zheng with obvious doubts. She knew Fang Zheng's various ghost reasons for throwing the blame at the beginning, and said in a low voice: "You'd better pray that he wakes up early. Qiugong is only a few days away."

Next, Teng Mao gave Fang Zheng two options: one is to take them to kill Xiaoyang immediately, get the Rong Rong ointment, and let all the women take it before Qiu Gong.Make sure you don't get pregnant this year, and after the autumn tribute, they will have time to prepare to rebel and gain full combat power for the tribe.

The second is to immediately tell them how to hunt Xiaoyang, and he can stay here to recuperate.

Anyway, no matter what they choose, they must immediately obtain the method of subduing Xiaoyang and make a large amount of ointment.

With this promise, Fujimao won the support of most women.

Fang Zhengcai didn't care about their autumn tribute or rebellion plan, he simply didn't want to hand over this bargaining chip before he healed his wounds, whether it was taking them to kill or telling them.Once informed, he seemed to have lost a talisman.

But it seems that Tengmao came prepared, it doesn't look like he can compromise.

Fang Zheng has read all the medicinal materials of Wuxu and Elder Xuansi in the past few days. He didn't bother, so he thought of another way...

If you lose a chip, make another chip.

He kept his composure and said to Teng Mao: "Then let me tell you now, you go and take down the second one on the left from Elder Wu Xu's cabinet."

Tengmao took it down according to his words. The jar was made of stone with patterns on it. This kind of jar is usually expensive medicine.

Fang Zheng asked: "Which people want to kill Xiaoyang together, you call everyone who is going."

Teng Mao called in several tall female hunters, and Man Mao was among them. Although she was listless, she still obeyed.

Fang Zheng said: "One of you can take some of this medicine jar. This is the life-saving medicine to prevent being killed by Xiaoyang."

Tengmao opened the jar in surprise, and found that there were dead white insects inside. He couldn't help being a little puzzled, and whispered: "Why is this a bit like the poisonous insects used by elders?"

Fang Zheng held his breath: "It's just that one thing conquers another. You don't have to eat it. If you get wet with Xiaoyang's saliva, your body will rot."

Tengmao was skeptical, but the other female hunters couldn't help but ate it.In the end, Tengmao had no choice but to obey the white dead insect.

Fang Zheng said: "Okay, let them go out, I have a separate way to tell you."

Tengmao felt something was wrong from that moment, and her intuition was not wrong. After the female hunters left, Fang Zheng said calmly: "What I let you eat is poison. Medicine."

The author has something to say:

There is nothing between Fang Zheng and his adoptive father.The adoptive father is just a more important family role.But telling the meaning of his sexual enlightenment in Fang Zheng is a necessary piece of the puzzle for shaping characters and capturing emotional scenes, and it is over.

From a moral point of view, it is okay to criticize Fang Zheng for "evil", "scum" and "darkness". Don't learn from it, it is not allowed in modern times.
