Thank you for the two monthly tickets from Bleeding Day!
When they arrived at the rocky area, everyone found a rock and sat down to rest while observing the place that the staff called the rocky area. It could be said that this place was actually a small hillside. For some reason, rocks of different sizes and shapes were irregularly located on the hillside. It was no wonder that it took so much time to cross this small hillside.
"This should be a mountain, right? How can it be land? The information is ridiculous!"
Zheng Xiyuan sat next to Xu Zhixuan and looked at the drawing on the map. He realized that the abstract drawing was really out of touch with reality. The rocky area in front of them was at least a few dozen meters high. It was comparable to some of the hills in Korea.
Jin Bingwan had just finished learning from the local expert and walked over. "This is actually a place where the ancient Maoris held a memorial ceremony. These rocks were brought here by the ancient Maoris. However, the security expert doesn't know the specific information. We still need to ask the local Maoris."
"What? This is a graveyard? No wonder I feel so gloomy. Let's hurry up and leave! " The timid Lu Zhenyu was sitting opposite Xu Zhixuan. When he heard Jing Bingwan's words, he stood up immediately and couldn't wait to pull Pu Zhengzhe away.
Pu Zhengzhe was speechless at Lu Zhenyu's fuss and explained, "This is a place where they hold a memorial ceremony. It's similar to the ones in Korea. It's not a tomb."
"Haha, don't be so surprised. Even if it was a tomb, it would have dissipated with time!" Xu Zhixuan comforted Lu Zhenyu. As for the effect, he could tell from Lu Zhenyu's expression that he had calmed down a lot. "This might be a place where the ancestors of the Maoris held a ceremony after winning a war!"
In fact, Xu Zhixuan wasn't very sure either. After all, everything he knew was found on the Internet. Combined with the information he had just received, this was a place where they held a memorial ceremony. Perhaps it was what he had guessed.
"Oh? Is that so? They have a ceremony? "
Pu Baoying, on the other hand, was not afraid at all when she heard Jin Bingwan's words. She looked around as if she was looking for something. When she heard Xu Zhixuan's guess, she asked with interest. After all, she was already very good at seeking knowledge.
Xu Zhixuan saw the curious look on Pu Baoying's face and instantly made a decision. He was prepared to scare her a little to see if she was really not afraid. He said, "Well, don't think that the Maori people's art and culture are so brilliant. You would never imagine that 200 years ago, the Maori people's ancestors were still living a primitive life. They would even eat the brains of the defeated."
Sure enough, whether it was the curious Pu Baoying or Jin Bingwan, who always had a tough image, they were all shocked by Xu Zhixuan's words. They really didn't expect that the ancestor of Uncle John, who was so friendly to them, would eat people.
"Haha, are you for real? Uncle, you must be joking!"
Pu Baoying, who came back to her senses, saw Xu Zhixuan's slightly raised lips and thought that he might be joking. The topic of eating people was too far away from them. They had never even heard of it before. After all, Korea was also a Confucian country. Although they had been stealing the culture of the Celestial Empire, they did not know that Confucius was from their country. They did not even think about the Warring States Period. They even said that China's Qu Yuan jumped into the Miluo River and said that Qu Yuan jumped into the Han River. What a shameless dog. Even more shameless was that they said that Changbai Mountain was their Paektu Mountain. In the future, because of a celebrity's advertisement, everyone knew about it.
"The Maoris of New Zealand are world-famous cannibals. This can be easily found on the Internet. Of course, they have not eaten people for more than 200 years, but the modern Maoris are still very proud of their ancestors' bravery." Xu Zhixuan said with a smile. After all, this was the truth.
Everyone saw that although Xu Zhixuan said it lightly, there was a certain tone in his voice. Moreover, as Xu Zhixuan said, they could find it on the Internet. There was no way that Xu Zhixuan would lie to them. However, no one was in a good mood. After all, eating people was already beyond their morals.
"Zhixuan, what else do you know? Let's take a break now and share it with everyone! " Seeing that everyone was in low spirits, the patriarch, Jin Bingwan, stood up and gave Xu Zhixuan a look. After all, even if the Maoris' ancestors ate people, it was none of their business. There was no need to make everyone depressed over this matter.
Xu Zhixuan received Jin Bingwan's look and knew what to do. He said, "Legend has it that the primitive Maoris of Resurrection Island lived in an environment with insufficient natural resources. They lived a life of mutual destruction. The island was always at war, and it was very chaotic. It was until a man came to Resurrection Island with two ships, two hundred people, and a lot of food. He was then crowned as the king of the island. Only then did life on Resurrection Island start to get a little more orderly. "
"Later on, the way the king was elected became quite special. There was a small island near Resurrection Island. There were many birds nesting on the island. Every year, some men would swim to the island to retrieve the birds' eggs. The first person to retrieve the eggs would be crowned king. "
"Are you serious? That works? "
"The country's election is too childish!"
"I can get elected just like that. It's too easy!"
"…"
Sure enough, everyone forgot about the idea of Maoris eating people. They were all attracted by Xu Zhixuan's strange king election ceremony. One by one, they sighed. Even Zheng Xiyuan felt that he could become king. Wasn't it just swimming to another island? He was from the navy. During his training, he often trained in the sea. Swimming a few miles was not a problem for him.
"You're all thinking too simply. The environment a few hundred years ago was not like what we have now. There were no tools. To swim to another island with your bare hands and bring back the eggs intact, the danger is beyond your imagination. Maybe even I can't do it!" Xu Zhixuan said with a hint of admiration. If it was just swimming between two islands, it would not be a problem for Xu Zhixuan. However, it was difficult to ensure that the eggs were intact. Just going ashore and being hit by the meter-high waves could easily lead to accidents. Even lives could be lost there, not to mention such fragile eggs.
Everyone imagined the scene that Xu Zhixuan described in their minds. A primitive man dressed in animal skin would swim across the sea from one island to another. In order to get to the island, they could only endure the waves that were a few meters high. Some candidates even lost their lives because of this. Just the thought of it gave them goosebumps. It was too cruel.
"Can't they be more civilized in the election?" After Pu Baoying said it, she regretted it. She was so embarrassed that she wanted to die. A few hundred years ago, the Maori people lived in primitive times, so they didn't know anything about elections. Her shy look made everyone laugh happily, and their worries were blown away by the wind.
After resting for ten minutes, Xu Zhixuan stood up and clapped his hands. "Okay, everyone get up. We should be on our way!"
Once again, Xu Zhixuan led the way. Jin Bingwan followed at the back. This time, they had to go around the rocky area. It could be said that even the staff had not been there before. The unknown was the most terrifying. Originally, the team's production team suggested that they let their people explore first, but Xu Zhixuan and the others rejected it. Survival in the wild. If they needed others to go first, they might as well go straight through the rocky area.
"Be careful under your feet. These stones are a little brittle!" Xu Zhixuan pulled Pu Baoying. Behind them, each person pulled another person. They walked carefully. Because they were walking around the edges of the rocky area, there were many stones in front of them. They were not very high, but they were a little slanted. If they were not careful, they could fall. Some of the stones had sharp edges. If they were not careful, they could get hurt. "Brother Bingwan, be careful behind!"
"Got it. Don't worry and lead the way!" Jin Bingwan demonstrated the responsibility of a patriarch. Every member of the tribe was taken care of by him. In fact, Xu Zhixuan was most worried about him. Jae-seok jumped around, afraid that he would get hurt accidentally.
Finally, after more than ten minutes, they walked through the rocky area. Everyone was very careful and no one got hurt. Xu Zhixuan sighed in relief. After bypassing the rocky area, they saw a wide open space. They could even see a mountain in the distance. Xu Zhixuan took out the map. Everyone ignored their tiredness and gathered around. They heard Xu Zhixuan say, "The mountain in front should be our destination."
"Well, it should be. According to the map, we can see a mountain after we pass through the rocky area. Although we have taken a detour, we only see one mountain here. It should be it." Jin Bingwan compared the map back and forth and looked around again before he said with certainty.
Xu Zhixuan nodded. Looking around, there was only one mountain that could be called a mountain. The others should be hillsides, similar to the rocky area. Seeing that everyone was a little tired, he asked, "Should we rest for a while before we set off? Or should we continue our journey and rest when we reach there?"
"Let's continue our journey!"
"Yeah, we should rest when we reach a water source. We can even drink water. I'm so thirsty!"
"Yes, I agree with Zhengzhe. I'm thirsty too!"
"…"
Seeing that everyone was in favor of continuing their journey, Xu Zhixuan didn't talk nonsense and directly started walking. Everyone silently followed behind him and walked towards the mountain with a water source in the distance. During this time, everyone didn't have the energy to appreciate the scenery on the road. They all walked in silence.
"We're finally here. I can even hear the sound of water!"
"I can hear it too. Could it be a waterfall?"
"There's a waterfall here? Let's go get some water first! "
"…"
Although they were at the foot of the mountain, they could still hear the sound of the waterfall. It must be quite large. The sound could even reach here. Xu Zhixuan saw that no one was prepared to go see the waterfall. It must be because of the accident last time that made everyone a little afraid of the waterfall.
"Yes, let's go. Let's get some water first and then go see the waterfall!" Anyway, as long as they didn't run to the bottom of the waterfall like last time, it was fine. Looking at it from afar was quite good. Besides, everyone missed the scenery on the road. Taking everyone to see the waterfall just to get some water could be considered as making up for it.
Just as everyone was walking up the mountain in high spirits, they seemed to have forgotten a very important reminder on the map. This reminder caused them to pay the price. They didn't even have the heart to admire the waterfall.
