In the early morning of the second day, they got up and started their journey at dawn. Xiong Lu had the eggs boiled by his sister-in-law for breakfast.

Continuing to move south, the road is no longer flat, but rugged and winding, and in some places there is even no road.Guan Fuxiu opened the way for everyone with his keen intuition and remaining impressions. After three hours, he finally arrived at a market.

Seeing the crowd, the expressions on their faces relaxed.Everyone is not familiar with the place of life, and it is common to go the wrong way. It seems that this time it is the right one.

Guan Fuxiu said in Xionglu's ear: "Today seems to be the day to go to the market. Most of the Miao people live on the mountain, and it is not convenient to exchange the goods they need for life, so they agreed to a market every five days, and brought their remaining items to the market. Go to the market to exchange. From here to the village where your mother lived, it takes two quarters of an hour."

Xiong Lu nodded and said to everyone: "It's not far away, everyone will be there after a while of hard work."

For him, this is a wonderful world, there are too many things he doesn't know.The people here are different from other places in Chu State in terms of dress, even the language.The elder sounds very powerful, will he know something that they don't know?Perhaps, this trip is enough for him to solve the mystery of time travel and find the way back.

After walking for a while, the horse couldn't move forward.Two soldiers were left to guard the horses, and everyone went up the mountain.After walking through a fog, there is a village behind.Guan Fuxiu was walking in front, the passing Miao people saw them and stopped curiously, but did not ask them why they came.

When he came to an attic, Guan Fuxiu stopped.The couple of bears looked forward, and saw that the attic was located on a cliff, with a waterfall underneath. This location is really strange, and the attic is magnificent against the backdrop of the waterfall.

"My wife, is this the place?" Douban asked.

The Xiong couple looked at Fuxiu, nodded like a fight, and said, "That's right, this is the place. I've been here a few times when I was young, so I won't remember it wrong."

Two Miao women came down from upstairs, saw Xiong Lu and Guan Fuxiu, and welcomed them in.Guan Fuxiu whispered a few words to them, one of the women left first, as if she was looking for someone.Dou Ban was a little puzzled when he saw it, and Xiong Lu said: "It's okay, Uncle Dou, they are all my mother's clansmen, they recognize me."

Guan Fuxiu and Xiong Lu stepped into the main hall, but the two young women stopped Dou Ban and the others, saying: "Guests, please go to the side hall to rest first."

Looking at Xiong Lu like a bucket, Xiong Lu gave him a reassuring look and said, "Uncle Dou, you can rest first, it's okay."

Douban listened to Xiong Lu's words, followed the girl with the others, and went to rest first.

Xiong Lu held Guan Fuxiu's hand, and asked, "What is this place? This attic is quite magnificent."

"Here, similar to the ancestral temple in the palace, it is the ancestral temple of the Miao people, a place for worshiping ancestors and gods."

The girl and Guan Fuxiu just said a few words in Miao language and went down, Xiong Lu didn't understand what they said, just followed Guan Fuxiu.

"where are we going?"

"Rest first, wash off the wind and dust, and have a meal."

When they came to the room, Xiong Lu quickly took a hot bath and changed into clean clothes.When he came out, he saw that Guan Fuxiu had finished bathing and changed his clothes, and was sitting in front of the table waiting for him.Guan Fuxiu was wearing a blue cloth dress that Miao people often wear, with an embroidered belt around his waist, making his waist look tight.Her long hair was wet and not yet dry.After washing his face, he was no longer a young man with a dark complexion, but his original fair and tender complexion.Xiong Lu is used to watching the ugly version of Fuxiu these days, suddenly, except for the decoration of disguise, he only feels that his eyes are bright.

He sat down beside him, and a few Miao girls served food. Xiong Lu saw that the dishes were also different from those in the palace.It happened that he was very hungry, so he started to gobble it up without saying a word.

"Eat slowly, it's just the two of us here, no one will grab you."

"Good...delicious..." Xiong Lu spoke inarticulately.

Guan Fuxiu picked up the bowl and chopsticks, and began to eat slowly, saying: "After eating, let's rest for a while, then go to the elder."

Xiong couple nodded while eating, wishing they could bury their heads in the bowl.He is really hungry, and the food here is really delicious.I haven't eaten pickles and kimchi for a long time, and they taste very good with rice.The rice here is made with millet, beans and rice.Xiong Lu knows in his heart that eating pure rice in this era is actually very luxurious, and only the nobles in the palace can afford it.It is precisely because I eat rice on weekdays that I occasionally eat this kind of mixed rice, which is very delicious.

After dinner, two teenagers came and talked with Guan Fuxiu, then Guan Fuxiu took his hand and led him to the main hall.When they arrived, several gray-haired old men sat there, as if they were waiting for them.The atmosphere in the hall was serious, Xiong Lu entered the hall cautiously, Guan Fuxiu tightened his hand, and the two sat down in front of the elders.

Then, Guan Fuxiu and the elders were talking about each other, but Xiong Lu couldn't understand at all.It seemed to him, however, that they were arguing.The elders spoke one sentence at a time, and Guan Fuxiu pushed back.Finally, the elder sitting in the middle sighed, shook his head, said something, and got up to leave.

"What's wrong?" Xiong Lu asked softly in Guan Fuxiu's ear.

Guan Fuxiu held his hand tightly and said: "It's nothing, the elder is willing to give me what I want to take."

"Ah?" Didn't he come here this time to ask why he traveled through, why he almost disappeared for no reason, and how to travel back?

The Xiong couple looked around, feeling that the atmosphere was extremely serious, so they didn't dare to say anything.Everyone was silent for a while, and the elder who had left came back with a box in his hands, and solemnly put it in the hands of the couple of bears.

"What... for me?" Xiong Lu asked in surprise.

The elder said in official words: "My lord, this treasure was kept by the queen first, and then by Xiaoguan. After he left, we kept it. This thing should not have left here, so it is now handed over to the king, and please keep it safe." .This is a little thought from our Miao people.”

Xiong Lu looked at Guan Fuxiu, not understanding what exactly he had said to them before asking the elders to hand over the treasure.Judging from the elder's tone, handing over the treasure to him seemed quite reluctant, a little bit of compromising.

Guan Fuxiu saw his doubts, and whispered in his ear: "This is what the elders want, you put it away first, go back to the room and wait for me, I will discuss your matter with the elders."

Xiong Lu was even more puzzled, was it necessary to send him away when discussing his affairs?

Guan Fuxiu seemed to understand his thoughts, said: "Anyway, you don't understand, right? You rest first, I will tell you after I finish talking with the elder."

It seems quite reasonable to say so, Xiong Lu nodded, stood up holding the box, said goodbye to the elders, and said in Guan Fuxiu's ear: "Then I will go back to my room and wait for you."

When I got to the room, I lay on the bed for a long time, but Guan Fuxiu didn't come back.Since the baby is for him, it's okay to take it out to see, right?He gently opened the box, and there was a bead lying in the box.The beads are translucent, like the texture of white jade, but there is a blue water-like substance inside.He held the bead in the palm of his hand, and the strange thing was that the bead shimmered and shimmered after being touched by him.

The Xiong couple stared at it for a long time, only thinking that it must be a good thing.Could it be that he could time travel back with this thing?

At this moment, he doubts that the ancient myths may be true, otherwise how to explain these unscientific phenomena?

Or, what he traveled to was not the real Spring and Autumn, but another parallel world similar to Spring and Autumn?

He explored the bead, thought about it in a mess, and fell asleep without knowing it.After an unknown amount of time, he woke up slowly, with the sound of pattering rain coming from his ears.

It's raining, this kind of weather is perfect for sleeping.As he was thinking, the door opened with a creak, and he opened his eyes to observe Fuxiu.At this moment, he looked a little tired, and sat down by the bed, lying beside him.

The couple of bears moved inside, leaving enough space for Guan Fuxiu to lie down.He asked, "How is it? Did you get any clues?"

Guan Fuxiu nodded, but had an expression on his face that he didn't want to say anything.He picked up the bead, put it in front of his eyes and looked at it again and again, as if to confirm the authenticity, and then put the bead in the hands of the couple with satisfaction.

"What is this bead for?" Xiong Lu asked.

"Soul-fixing bead. You have fire energy on your body, and this bead happens to be of water attribute, which can suppress the fire on your body." Guan Fuxiu held the bear's hand tightly, causing the bear's hand to hold the bead tightly , Said: "In this way, you will not disappear."
