"Grandma, can eating Gastrodia elata make people as smart as ancient humans?" I asked.
"No, I want to eat the wild Gastrodia elata from Shennongjia. Do you know where this Shennongjia came from?" said the old lady.
Chen Mo and I shook our heads at the same time.
"The flesh soaked in corpse paste gave birth to Deng Lin, and Deng Lin spread thousands of miles across." The old lady said slowly.
"You are saying that this land is actually transformed from the bones of your ancestors. The forest on Shennongjia grew out of the bones of the Kuafu people, so it has the effect of resisting the moonlight, right?
?" Chen Mo said.
"That's right. The ancestors of the Kuafu clan once obtained the secret that the sun never sets. However, the sun's rays resisted the moonlight and scorched the earth. However, most of the Kuafu clan died of hunger and thirst.
, so our ancestors would turn into such a forest to protect their descendants forever." said the old lady.
"So, eating wild Gastrodia elata from Shennongjia forest can actually resist the damage of moonlight, right?" I asked.
"No, children, the most important thing is to avoid the moon. That's why our tribe builds most of the house underground to avoid the moonlight at night," the old lady said.
In fact, I am still a little skeptical about what the old lady said. I just think it is the special belief of the people in this area.

"Children, do you want to eat anything else? Do you want some gastrodia elata, this is really good food." said the old lady.
"No, thank you, grandma." Chen Mo said.
"Then I will arrange your accommodation for tonight. Old lady, I am alone. I like to have guests from far away come. By the way, I can pass on our culture." The old lady said.
"Thank you, grandma." I said.
After the old lady finished speaking, she got up and left the room, leaving Chen Mo and I sitting there.
"Chen Mo, do you think what grandma said is credible?" I asked.
"It's hard to say yet. We can't draw a conclusion just based on what an old lady said." Chen Mo said.
Suddenly, I remembered what Uncle Wu said to me last night in front of the kitchen. He told me not to believe anyone's words, including my own eyes. Everything I can believe can only be obtained through my own precise thinking and reasoning.
conclusion.
"I've been fond of sunbathing since I was a child, and I don't necessarily think there's anything wrong with me. The old lady's claims that you can see the meridians on the human body are all illusory and I don't think they're credible.
." Chen Mo continued.
Hearing Chen Mo say this, I smiled unconsciously.

"Chen Mo, I've only heard of sunbathing, but I've never heard of moonlight. What's your hobby?" I said, "It's a pity, Chen Mo, I can't bask in the moonlight tonight.
"
Chen Mo looked at me and laughed out loud.
"Children, what are you talking about so happily?" At this time, the old lady floated in from behind us again.
The reason why I say she floated in is because every time she appeared, she was silent. I even doubted whether she knew teleportation and could come to us in an instant.
"Grandma, we were chatting about moonlight. Please tell me if I am smarter than this little classmate, because he has liked moonlight since he was a child, but I like to sunbathe." I said half-jokingly.
Unexpectedly, the old lady actually became serious and started to look at us carefully.
At this moment, I saw a scene that I will never forget in my life.
The old lady seemed to quickly become immersed in observing us. Slowly, I actually noticed that an overlapping shadow appeared on the old lady's body.
This shadow and the old lady's body formed a series of double shadows, and they continued to wander around the old lady's body.
Is that the soul of the old lady?

Is this what the old lady meant by the veins of the human body?
I was just about to ask Chen Mo if he had seen the double shadow on the old lady. The silver-white, fluorescent shadow suddenly disappeared.
"How's it going? Do you know the answer now?" the old lady said to me with a smile.
I looked at her and then at Chen Mo.
There was nothing unusual on Chen Mo's face.
Could it be that the novel sight that the old man had just seen was specifically shown to me?
"Zhou Cang, what riddle are you and grandma playing? Why don't I understand it at all?" Chen Mo asked.
I was about to say something, but unexpectedly the old lady smiled knowingly at me.
Therefore, I can only say: "I don't know what grandma is doing."
I don’t know if this kind of thing exists beyond our latitude.

If I need to keep a secret, I will definitely abide by the rules.
I said silently in my heart, I believe the old lady can understand it.
It seems that unconsciously, I have integrated into the way of doing things of the Kuafu tribe.
Suddenly, I remembered the masks I met in the ghost town when I first entered Shennongjia, so I hurriedly asked: "Grandma, do you know about shamans?"
"Shaman, child, why do you ask that? Have you encountered anything in the mountains?" The old lady's expression became serious instantly. Her look made me feel that the matter was very serious.
Look.
"We have entered a ghost town before." I don't know where to start, so I can only mention this famous place.
"What?" The two pillows that the old lady was holding fell to the ground in an instant.
"grandmother."
Chen Mo and I shouted out at the same time. No one expected that the old lady's reaction would be so loud.
"I really shouldn't have taken you in." The old lady suddenly said with a sad face.

"Grandma, what's going on? Will there be any serious consequences if we enter a ghost town? Why do you say that?" The old lady's sudden change in attitude made me feel a little scared.
Moreover, at this time, I also suddenly had a feeling that the reason why the Gu family took us into the valley in the first place seemed too simple, and there seemed to be many unreasonable factors behind the appearance of Guyu.
Could it be that what Uncle Wu emphasized to me before, not to believe what you see and hear, was referring to this matter?
For so many years, no one has been able to enter the ghost town. Why can we meet the Gu family after we have entered Shennongjia?
Could it be that they are waiting for us here specially?
Now that I think about it, it seems that after entering the ghost town, there was always a hand leading us forward in the darkness along the route we took, and this hand was Guyu.
"You can leave at first light tomorrow morning. There is no need to say goodbye to me. I won't see you again. When you leave the yard, you can follow Bing Linghua and you will be able to get out of Shennongjia." After the old lady said that, she turned and left.
This little room where we are.
Chen Mo and I were left standing there, at a loss.
The old lady's attitude changed too quickly after hearing about the ghost town.
Is there anything she is taboo about in the ghost town?

Are these things we can bring out?
If after we went to the ghost town, there was something on us that would threaten her or her tribe, then why would she keep us here overnight instead of just kicking us out? Wouldn't it be safer?
"Chen Mo, what should we do now?" In the end, it was me who calmed down first.
"Stay here first and wait until dawn. There must be a side to this ghost town that we haven't discovered yet, and this side happens to be something that the Kuafu clan avoids." Chen Mo said with a serious face.
After I listened, I bent down and silently picked up the two pillows on the ground.
