"Our ancestors in Baziying were originally white tigers!"
Oga said seriously.
"Forehead..."
When all the police officers saw that Oga was talking nonsense again, they were speechless.
The leading police officer looked around with a flashlight and found that the four walls of Bazu Temple were covered with mottled murals.
Behind the white tiger statue, on the wall directly above the temple, there are two men and women with snake bodies and human faces painted...
They held things like rulers and compasses in their hands, and the snakes' tails were intertwined.
"Isn't this... a portrait of Fuxi and Nuwa?"
The leading police officer said in surprise.
"Yes, Fuxi and Nuwa are the ancestors of the Central Plains civilization. How could their portraits appear in the Bazu Temple deep in the mountains?"
The other policemen were also stunned.
They all recognized that the person holding the "rules" and "ju" on the mural was Fuxi and Nuwa, the founder of the Central Plains civilization.
"Fuxi and Nuwa are both demigods. After they led people to escape the great flood, they picked out the demigods among people and placed them in Bashan. They are the ancestors of our Ba people."
Oga pointed to the murals around the wall and said.
"this..."
Everyone used flashlights to look at the murals on the four walls, and sure enough they found that these murals were like comic strips, telling the origin of the Ba people.
In the early mural, a group of immortals flew down from the moon, a muscular man opened up the world with an ax, and a fit woman used clay to crush people...
Obviously, this is the story of the true God coming to the earth and universe in a lunar spaceship, creating the world, and creating humans from the ground...
In the next mural, there was a flood in the world. Fuxi and Nuwa, who had a snake body and a human head, worshiped and got married, gave birth to many children, defeated the flood, and multiplied...
In the next mural, Fuxi and Nuwa selected a group of people with big eyes and let them live on a continuous mountain...
In the later murals, two gangs were fighting, and one person turned into a white tiger and pounced on the enemy team...
Someone in the opponent's team also turned into a giant snake and fought with the white tiger in the clouds and mist...
In the last mural, a group of people with big eyes gathered in the temple and kowtowed to a statue of a white tiger.
"So... the Ba people are also descendants of Fuxi and Nuwa?"
The leading police officer rubbed his chin and thought.
"That's right... "The Classic of Mountains and Seas? Hai Nei Jing" says that there is a country of Ba in the southwest. Taihao gave birth to Xianniao, Xianniao gave birth to Chengli, Chengli gave birth to Houzhao, and Houzhao was the first Ba people..."
Jiang Chonglou couldn't help but said: "Taihao is Taihao, which is Fuxi. This means that the Ba people are the descendants of Fuxi and Nuwa!"
After coming out of the Undersea City, Jiang Zhonglou checked some information about the Ba people online.
So, he knows a lot about the Ba people.
"Then what's going on with this white tiger?"
The leading police officer found that Jiang Zhonglou was very knowledgeable about the Ba people, so he asked again.
"This...should be a branch of the Ba people."
In order to avoid the suspicion of the police officer, Jiang Zhonglou said: "I did my homework before traveling to Bashan and searched the Internet for some information about the Ba people...
I remember it was said on the Internet that the Ba people later split into two groups, one called the White Tiger Ba and the other called the Ba Snake Ba. The two tribes often fought...
These Ba people in Baziying should be the descendants of Ba from the White Tiger!"
"Forehead..."
"According to what you said, Oga is also a descendant of the white tiger?"
"How can a white tiger give birth to a human? Isn't this still feudal superstition?"
Several police officers did not take Jiang Zhonglou's words seriously.
"Of course a white tiger can't give birth to a human being. This is just totem worship..."
Jiang Zhonglou further explained: "It is said on the Internet that the soul of the Ba tribe leader of the White Tiger turned into a white tiger after death, so the Ba people of this tribe used the white tiger as a totem and carved a white tiger to worship him!"
"Yes, grandpa said that our ancestor from Baziying turned into a white tiger after his death, so everyone carved a white tiger to commemorate him."
Aoga nodded to Jiang Zhonglou.
He was full of resistance to the police officers, but he trusted Jiang Zhonglou more and more...
"Then the tragedy at Baziying, does it have anything to do with these legends about the origins of the Ba people?"
The leading police officer frowned and looked at Jiang Zhonglou, seeming to have some doubts about him...
"This...I don't know." Jiang Zhonglou said nothing more.
"This has been a fairy tale for a lifetime. Now that technology is so advanced, who cares about these gods and ghosts?" said a police officer.
"Who was that person who bloodbathed Bazi camp? What was his purpose?"
The leading police officer thought: "These mountain people in Baziying are isolated from the world and have neither money nor anything important. Who is going to do something evil to them?"
Is there really only one murderer? Is he really a big man wearing a black robe and a mask, as Oga said?"
"this..."
The other police officers were speechless.
"Forget it, let's wait until the autopsy results come out."
"Yes, let's get this drunkard back and revive him first. Maybe he will know some clues."
When the policemen saw that there were no more clues in the Bazu Temple, they carried the melon peel back to Oga's house, cooked ginger soup and fed it to the melon peel.
Everyone crowded into the two beds at Oga's house and slept.
I heard Guapi snoring and farting loudly...
The next morning, the rain stopped and Guapi's wine woke up.
Everyone sat around the firepit to have breakfast, and the police officer began to question Guapi.
"Who are you? Why are you here in the cemetery in Baziying? Are you still drunk?" the leading police officer asked Guapi with burning eyes.
"My mother was from Baziying. She died a few days ago...I came here..."
Guapi said sadly, like a piece of dry wood.
"What? Are you...really the child that Lian Xin lost?"
Although all the police officers had guessed that Guapi might be Lian Xin's child, they were still surprised when they heard him say it.
"Yes... I was trafficked by kidnappers to the southeast coast when I was a child. When I was a teenager, I escaped while the kidnapper wasn't paying attention. I have been wandering around the southeast coast picking up rags..."
Guapi seemed to no longer care about others knowing his true identity, and said with an expression of despair: "Later, I uploaded my DNA to the police station's family-hunting DNA library, hoping to find my relatives...
A few days ago, our police officer called me and said that a person died in Bazi camp, and his DNA was very similar to mine, so I rushed over...
When I got here, my mother... was already dead and buried in the valley behind Baziying...
The doctor compared our DNA again and said that I was the child my mother lost back then...
I bought wine and stayed with my mother at her grave every day..."
As he spoke, Guapi's red eyes were filled with tears.
"..."
Everyone felt Guapi's grief, and they were all saddened by Guapi's miserable life experience.
Lian Xin went crazy looking for melon skin...
Guapi was abducted by human traffickers and suffered a lot...
More than twenty years later, Lian Xin died, and the child was found through her DNA...
Although Guapi found his mother, he never even met her...
It's so tragic!
"Then...did you hear anything happening in the village last night?" the leading police officer asked.
