Hearing what Dafei said, I also felt that something was amiss. This Li Juan was originally Pan Laosan's subordinate. Why would she risk her life to save us?
Faced with our doubts, Li Juan quickly threw down the gun in her hand and explained the reason,
Mosquito's father was a businessman. Because he was born poor, he often did good deeds to give back to society after earning money.
When Mozzie was a teenager, Mozzie's father built a Hope Primary School for Li Juan's village. At the same time, he funded the living expenses of more than 20 students in the village. Li Juan was one of them.
That year, Li Juan and a few other students were admitted to university at the same time. Mosquito's father brought Mosquito to visit them. This was the first time Li Juan had seen her benefactor's child, so she remembered it in her heart.
Later, Li Juan graduated from university. In order to take care of her sick mother, she chose to return to her hometown to work. Because her mother's illness could not be cured for a long time, the anxious Li Juan went to any doctor she could find. She began to seek some folk prescriptions and came into contact with the witchcraft culture that was circulating in her hometown.
With the mentality of giving it a try, Li Juan found an old Gu Master in the depths of the mountain and actually let her learn some witchcraft left behind from ancient times.
At that time, Pan Laosan came to Guizhou and found her. He was willing to send Li Juan's mother abroad for treatment, but only if Li Juan worked for Pan Laosan.
At first, Li Juan didn't know what Pan Laosan did for a living, but it was too late by the time she learned his true colors. Under Pan Laosan's coercion and temptation, Li Juan had no choice but to go against her conscience and do some outrageous things.
In fact, when she first saw us in Guiyang, Li Juan recognized the mosquitoes at a glance and knew our identities through witchcraft. However, she thought that she had already let down the mosquito family's help and could not harm her benefactor's child no matter what, so she deliberately failed and said that she could not control the mosquitoes and me.
Li Juan wanted to help us complete the mission and get rid of Pan Laosan's evil claws at the same time, but she didn't expect that Dafei would find out our identities. Thus, Li Juan secretly reminded us so that we could escape in time.
From then on, I finally understood that the dream I had, including the uneasiness along the way, was all an illusion created by Li Juan using the witchcraft spell that had been left in my body. I also believed what Li Juan said because I knew Mozzie's family very well. There were some things that others couldn't investigate even if they wanted to.
Seeing that Dafei still had some doubts, Li Juan begged with tears in her eyes," Brother Da Fei, no, officer, I'm telling the truth. I did do a lot of bad things, but I don't want to."
I sighed, thinking that there were too many people in this world who could not help themselves, but it could not change the fact that Li Juan had committed a crime. At the same time, he lamented the cycle of karma. If it weren't for the good deeds of the mosquito family, it would be impossible for Li Juan to help us today, even though the one who saved us in the end was Dafei.
Eh? That's not right. Thinking of Dafei, I suddenly had a question. Dafei is also a spy, so why did he tell Pan Laosan our identities? Moreover, when Pan Laosan shot at the mosquito, the elite of the Special Case Investigation Unit could have stopped it. Could it be that Pan Laosan was not a spy?
"Comrade, I believe her words. You've known her for a longer time than me, so you should know the situation better than me.”The mosquito interrupted my thoughts and spoke weakly. I couldn't care less about it and quickly went to check on his injury.
Dafei put down the gun in his hand and walked over to take care of the mosquitoes with me. I tore open Mosquito's diving suit. Fortunately, the blood jade neutralized the power of the bullet, so I only suffered a superficial injury. Da Fei helped to dig out the bullet. Li Juan found that there were herbs in the hole that could promote blood circulation, so she picked some mashed herbs and applied them to the mosquitoes.
After about an hour, I saw that the mosquito's face had recovered some blood. I was more or less relieved. Then, I discussed with Dafei how to contact the outside world.
"We can't receive any signal here. It seems that we can only rely on ourselves to get out.”Dafei said solemnly.
I replied with an " oh ", thinking that I knew without you saying it. Looking at the key in Dafei's hand, I asked Li Juan, who was beside me, what exactly was this? What was with the Jiuli survivors? Li Juan looked at Da Fei with some concerns.
Dafei didn't stop him. He said," It's still unknown whether we can get out. It just so happens that I don't know much about this thing. If you know, tell me. Maybe you can find a clue to leave this place."
Since Dafei had said so, Li Juan glanced at the mosquito and said softly,"" I've heard from my master that the Shennong's Gall has actually existed here for thousands of years. Third Brother, no, Third Brother Pan didn't give a complete account of it either."
From Li Juan, we learned that in the ancient mythological era, there were three major forces that ruled the Central Plains: King Chiyou of Miao, Emperor Yan of Shennong, Emperor Xuanyuan. Among them, Chiyou was the most powerful and was known as the War God.
Chiyou was the leader of the Jiuli Race. It meant that there were nine tribes, and each tribe had nine clans. In other words, Chiyou had eighty-one generals under him. Back in the Stone Age, this was already an army that dominated the world.
Just like the title of the War God, Chiyou was not only brave and good at fighting, but he also used metal weapons to replace stone spears and hammers, creating a new era.
Because of their advanced weapons and large numbers of soldiers, the Jiuli tribe first defeated the Shennong Emperor, forcing the Emperor to ally with the Yellow Emperor. In the end, Chiyou was defeated by the Yan and Huang armies in the Battle of Zhulu. Since ancient times, the winner was the king and the loser was the bandit. Chiyou's status in history had plummeted and he was demoted to a barbarian who only knew how to kill and bring chaos to the world.
In fact, Chiyou was originally called Chi You (Chi, a pejra meaning of a small insect, a person who lost his reputation and reputation, it was really hard for this ancestor of civilization). He was not born in the Yellow River basin as mentioned in some documents, but from the distant north.
This person had a bronze head and an iron body. He could drive hundreds of beasts and unified Jiuli with his own strength. Legend had it that he represented the Devil Dao, but in the end, he was no match for the Yellow Emperor, who represented the Heavenly Dao.
After the Battle of Zhulu, Chiyou was beheaded. One of his treasures was obtained by Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang. This treasure could activate a powerful force. The Flame Emperor was worried that this power would once again cause chaos in the world, so he swallowed it into his stomach and sealed it.
As for the eighty-one generals under Chiyou, they were all killed after Chiyou died. Only a few survived. In the end, they moved several times before settling down in the southern border. Out of the 81 clans, only one or two remained. As history progressed, these clans eventually evolved into the present Miao, Dong, and other ethnic minorities.
Naturally, they were unwilling to give up. They fantasized that one day, they would be able to kill their way back to the Central Plains. The great shaman of the tribe said that if they wanted to make a comeback, they had to go to the place where Chiyou was born and open the "primitive door" that contained infinite power. Before that, they had to take back the key. Therefore, the Nine Li Tribe spent decades before a warrior finally took back the key that had turned into a bead from the tomb of Emperor Yan.
However, the leader at that time, Shao Hao, learned of this. In order to recover the key, Shao Hao sent an army to chase and intercept them. The warrior and the hundreds of other warriors who came to support him fought and retreated. Many of them died along the way. When they reached Huangguoshu Waterfall, there were only a hundred or so people left.
In the end, in order to avoid the pursuers, the warriors took the key into a maze and disappeared. Shao Hao's army could only give up.
In later history, each dynasty and generation had carried out destructive extermination of the Miao people more than once, triggering many wars, including the famous "Three Miao Rebellion". The reason was that they were afraid of Chiyou's power, and they were worried that this power would revive in the hands of the Miao people.
After listening to Li Juan's explanation, I felt that it was unbelievable. Regardless of whether it was true or not, it seemed that the ancient times were not called the Mythological Era for nothing.
I believe that the Mythological Era of thousands of years is not something that can be explained in a few words. Li Juan obviously knows more details. She can only sigh that the Yangtze River is flowing eastward. It's better not to mention some subversive historical truths.
Dafei didn't treat it as a story like I did. He said to Li Juan,"You said that those hundred warriors all entered a maze. Then may I ask, how did these things get passed down?”
" I heard from my master that the hundred warriors disappeared for more than ten years before they returned," Li Juan said softly." However, they received disappointing news from the Grand Warlock. The Grand Sorcerer had divined that the place where Chi You was born had turned into the Dead Sea, and the primitive door had disappeared. Only after thousands of years when the Dead Sea dried up and the fire storm appeared would the primitive door see the light of day again.”
" Later on, these hundred warriors returned to the cave with the key. They destroyed the tunnel in the cave along the way and sealed it together with the key, waiting for the fiery storm to appear thousands of years later. At that time, the descendants of the clan would naturally come back to take the key.”
The three of us listened silently and had the same question: "Since the entrance has been destroyed, how can we enter?”
After saying so much, Li Juan also relaxed a lot and continued,"Master said that even if the entrance is gone, the descendants of the warriors can still enter. This was the fate of a guardian. Everything was destined.”After saying that, Li Juan looked at the mosquito without blinking.
I followed Li Juan's gaze and looked at the mosquito. Although it was hard to believe, if what Li Juan said was true, and the mosquito was really the descendant of the Jiuli warrior as Pan Laosan said, then it was really fate that we could come here.
According to Li Juan's words, this should be the place where the hundred warriors were hiding. As the descendants of the warriors, Mozzie has also found the key, so we definitely have a chance to get out.
"It seems that your master is also a remnant of Jiuli. Did he say how to get out after finding the key?”Dafei asked seriously.
Li Juan shook her head." That's not true. Other than those brave warriors, no one knows the way in and out."”
After hearing Li Juan's words, Mosquito's expression was solemn. The corners of his mouth twitched from time to time. His heart must be very complicated.
" Under such circumstances, to suddenly find out that I'm a direct descendant of the Jiuli Race from the Mythological Era, and that my ancestor's ancestor died in this isolated underground world, if it were me, I would definitely find it hard to believe.
I patted Mosquito's shoulder and took a deep breath."Brother, calm down. Aren't they just survivors of the Jiuli Race? There's really nothing to show off. Maybe I also have a very powerful ancestor, but it's not like the country will give you a monthly subsidy of 1,800 yuan other than posting on Weibo to earn some attention. Moreover, if you're too awesome, you'll be easily bombarded. For example, you're covered in injuries from the explosions now."
I said it in a serious manner, laughing until the mosquitoes coughed. Li Juan also covered her mouth and laughed out loud. Even Dafei almost couldn't hold it in, and his expression was strange.
Mosquito patted his chest a few times, adjusted his breathing, and cursed,""Damned rat, I've never seen you be serious for more than three minutes. You can still fart a few times under such circumstances.”
I curled my lips and said,"I'm better off dead than alive. Why not be happy?" Besides, it's good that you won't die here."
Perhaps it was because of Dafei's personality, he didn't smile. After listening to Mosquito and I tease each other for a while, he interrupted us and said to Mosquito,"Zhang Wen can walk now, right? We should think of a way to leave this place as soon as possible. Don't forget that the things we have are very important to the investigation bureau.”
Mozzie and I nodded. Dafei was telling the truth. If we really died here, the investigation bureau would lose more than just three mysterious police officers. So we picked up everything useful on the ground, walked out of the cave, and began to look for a way out.
As for the gold, silver, and jewelry on the ground, I think some things are better buried forever. Although I really want to take a few out, if Dafei isn't here,
