Chapter 474 Approaching the truth

After listening to my question, Crazy Six paused for a moment, and then slowly said: "Because its feces can be used as explosives."

As soon as Crazy Six finished speaking, Kenya was the first to laugh. She thought Crazy Six was joking. How could animal feces be explosive?

Mr. Chen, his wife, and Mr. Ouyang also shook their heads and smiled bitterly. It can be seen that they, like Kenya, thought Crazy Six was just joking.

Although we have been with Crazy Six for the longest time, so we know him well and know that he seldom jokes, but his statement is still difficult for us to accept and understand. We find it a bit unbelievable.

Ah, how can animal feces become explosive?

But unexpectedly, my cousin nodded to Crazy Six's statement, as if he agreed. What's going on? Is what Crazy Six said true?

Seeing that we were both surprised and confused, my cousin smiled slightly and said, "The old man is right, that kind of 'human bird' excrement can indeed be used as explosives."

When he said this, everyone started to take it seriously. My cousin continued to explain: "Some of our local chronicles are dedicated to recording folklore, and these folklores contain information about this kind of 'bird man'.

The book records that in the late Tang Dynasty, some rebels of the Tang Dynasty were defeated and fled to the mountains in this area. In winter, due to continuous heavy snowfall, the environment became more humid and cold, and their flints used to make fires were completely ineffective.

So, they could only eat raw meat for the prey they hunted. The biggest problem with eating raw meat was that it would cause constipation. Many soldiers were suffocated to death because they couldn't poop. But outside, the Tang Dynasty army was also

They were surrounded layer by layer, so they did not dare to go out from the mountains, and they could not light a fire to keep warm. Therefore, these defeated soldiers began to die in large numbers, and the whole army was about to be annihilated.

At this critical moment of life and death, one of the rebels joined the army and found a way to make a fire - he used a black powder, sprinkled it on the wood, and then used a sword to lightly tap and hit the black powder.

It will burn and set the wood on fire.

This shocked the rebels. What was the black powder? They really couldn't figure it out, because the gunpowder at that time was yellow, and it could never be burned with a few hits with a sword.

After the fire, the last dozen or so rebels survived in the mountains. Later, due to changes in the situation, they came out of the mountains and got married and had children locally. The one who joined the army became a local

Famous gentry, so their experience was also recorded.

According to what the soldier later revealed, the black powder he used to make fire was the excrement of an animal, and that animal looked very weird, with the head of a bird and the body of a human. He called it a "man-bird."

As for how he discovered that 'human bird', there is no record in the book.

Since then, many Taoist priests in the past dynasties have come to this mountain to look for the excrement of the "human bird", because they believe that the excrement belongs to the "extreme sun" and is one of the best raw materials for alchemy.

Legend has it that the Ming Dynasty general Yuan Chonghuan also came here to find the feces of this kind of "human bird", but he did not do it to make elixirs, but to create more powerful explosives. It is said that he also secretly raised many of these "human birds"

, after specially collecting their feces, they add it to the gunpowder to greatly increase the power of the gunpowder.

Later, he defended the ancient city of Ningyuan alone, using 10,000 people to fight against several times the Houjin troops - that is, the troops of the Qing Dynasty - and drove back the Houjin troops. The reason why he was able to achieve this victory was because of his powerful force at the time.

The 'Red Cannon', and the gunpowder used by the 'Red Cannon' contains the feces of this 'human bird'."

After listening to what my cousin had said, everyone looked shocked. The female translator and Kenya both took out their notebooks and took notes. However, their purpose of recording was quite different - the female translator was for research, while Kenya was doing it for research.

Ya used this as writing material.

"That stone can also turn into explosives when it comes into contact with alcohol, and that stone is the vomit of the female monkey eagle. I didn't expect that the feces of this human bird can be used directly as explosives. These two

Is there any connection between them? I guess, whether it is 'Monkey Eagle' or

'Human Birds' are all related to this crater. Since the excrement in their bodies contains explosives, does it mean that there is a substance in this crater that is used by 'Monkey Eagle' and 'Human Bird'?

After eating it, it will be transformed into explosives in their bodies?"

After listening to Xiao Lei's speculation, Crazy Six and his cousin both nodded. I also think what Xiao Lei said makes sense - the secretions of two animals can form explosives. This is by no means a coincidence, but there should be an internal connection.

of.

I don't know if it was because of Xiao Lei's words that Madman Six suddenly thought of something. He stood up suddenly and said a little hastily: "Quick, let's go to the crater behind right away. There should be unexpected discoveries. Maybe, we can solve the problem."

The mystery of the disappearance of Kai Xiaolei and Hongmei."

This was too sudden, and the amount of information he said was a bit large. Before we could react, he had already picked up his umbrella and walked outside. We also stood up in confusion and followed him.

behind.

Everyone wanted to see what was going on with Crazy Six, but the cousin suddenly turned around and said: "Sister-in-law, and Brother Ouyang, you two and the two 'monkey eagles', please stay at home, lest the two

'Monkey Eagle', be tempted by that flute sound again."

It was still raining heavily outside. Some of us were holding umbrellas and some were wearing raincoats and walked towards the crater behind. What everyone didn't understand was, what did my cousin find? Xiaolei and Hongmei's

If he disappears, what connection will there be?

With all these mysteries, everyone followed closely behind Crazy Six.

In the misty rain and fog, the crater became more and more mysterious. When we walked to the crater, at first glance, we did not find anything unusual. However, when we looked carefully, we did find something strange about this crater -

-As Mr. Chen and his wife said before, it has rained so heavily, but there is not even a puddle of water in this crater. This is indeed strange.

Maybe it’s because Kenya works as a reporter, so her observation skills seem to be sharper than the rest of us. This time, she was the first to notice the anomaly: “Look, there’s a grass growing in the pit.”

We quickly looked in the direction she pointed, and sure enough, there was really a piece of grass growing next to a stone in the crater.

If there is grass growing in other craters, it would be normal, but the presence of grass in this crater is extraordinary - because this crater has always been grown by grass, how could a grass suddenly grow there?

Are you coming? We quickly went down to the pit and observed the grass carefully.

When we walked to the grass and looked carefully, all of us were shocked - that green 'grass' had no leaves, only a green stalk, which came out of the stone. If we looked carefully,

You can also see the 'grass' squirming slightly.

Madman Six held up his umbrella and murmured: "That's right." Then he leaned down and gently touched the grass with his hand. What was even more incredible was that the grass seemed to have feelings.

Yes, when Crazy Six strokes it, it will sway slightly, and at the same time, there seems to be a strange sound coming from under the stone.

After stroking it for a few times, Crazy Six held the 'grass' tightly, and then pulled it up suddenly. The grass "struggled" violently, but Crazy Six held on tightly and refused to let go.

At this time, the stones under the grass began to creak, and we were all stunned as we stood nearby - this scene was so weird and unbelievable.

In the past, whether I encountered an amphibious man or a half-man, half-goat monster, I was more afraid of it. And after seeing more monsters, I will feel that any strange creature appearing in this kind of mountain seems to be understandable.

But what we feel about the scene before us is not fear, but an unimaginable weirdness.

Along with the squeaking sound, a hole slowly appeared under the grass. When the hole became bigger and bigger, something came out of the hole. When they saw the strange thing clearly, everyone almost said in unison

He exclaimed: "It's a 'human bird'!".

The female translator, Hongmei, Sister Li, and two Japanese female assistants all screamed and turned their heads away, not daring to look again. Mr. Chen and I are men after all, so it was a little better, especially since this was already

This was the second time I saw it, so the fear was not as strong as the first time. I plucked up the courage and took a few more glances, but I was still so frightened that my heart skipped a beat and my legs weakened.

It turns out that the green thing is not grass at all, but the tentacles on the head of the 'human bird'! At this time, Crazy Six has pulled up the whole 'human bird' - a baby-like body covered with feathers

, coupled with a huge bird head, and looking at it so close, it is really weird and creepy.

Xiao Lei, Crazy Six, and their cousin remained calm and composed. Xiao Lei just wanted to go and help Crazy Six capture the 'human bird', but was stopped by Crazy Six.

That tentacle should be a very special part of the 'human bird'. After being caught, it seemed to be in great pain and screamed, but it did not dare to break free.

At this time, Crazy Six took out a silver needle from his body and stabbed the "human bird" in the neck. Suddenly, the "human bird" went limp and lay on the ground. After struggling for a few times, he became motionless.

.

"The small hole in the courtyard, as well as the four surrounding small holes, should be connected to the bottom of the crater. After I cracked the 'Feng Shui Gu', the aura under the crater should have completely changed.

The 'human birds' may rely on that kind of aura to survive, so the change in the environment inside made them very painful, so they couldn't help but crawl out one by one.

It can be seen from the meridians that the 'human bird' crawling out of the courtyard is male, while this one is female, so it has a green tentacle on its head. This distinction between male and female is actually

It’s similar to the male and female distinctions of the ‘Monkey Eagle’, but that’s no wonder, they are both related to this crater, so it’s normal to have similarities in some aspects.”

Because Crazy Six can see meridians, he has his own unique perspective on people and other animals, and can discover things that ordinary people cannot.

"When you went out just now, you said you could solve the mystery of Hongmei and I's disappearance. Could our disappearance be related to this 'human bird'? But it is so small, how could it catch the two of us in the air?
