Live Beautification System

That afternoon, on a bumpy dirt road, Guo Pingfan drove a several-year-old Land Rover Defender, carrying Ding Mu and Xu Hening, and drove toward the primitive tribe in the center of the island. This road is a dirt road leading deep into the rainforest, built along a small river. This road is also the only road open to traffic in the interior of the country. It is far worse than the highway on the seaside. Basically, there are many sights along the way. There were no tourist cars and only a few local off-road vehicles passing through.

Ding Mu sat in the passenger seat, while Xu Hening sat in the back seat. Ding Mu and Guo Pingfan chatted and asked: "Uncle Pingfan, I think your identity is not that simple! As for your martial arts, you will never be able to achieve it without more than ten years of hard work."

"As people get older, they naturally have richer experiences. I also lived in the capital before. Who would want to leave their hometown and come to such a far place!" Guo Pingfan said slowly.

Ding Mu understood 70% to 80% of it as soon as he heard it. It seems that Uncle Guo may have caused some trouble in Dahua before? Then he fled to Airplane Country to do business. At his age, Dahua was not very stable in the era when he grew up. But judging from the many skills he knows, this guy is most likely an agent with professional military training. However, he didn't want to talk about this topic, and Ding Mu couldn't force him to ask.

Along the way, the scenery is very special. It feels a bit like a tropical rainforest, but not so hazy. There are special vegetation everywhere, which are basically not seen in Dahua. Xu Hening sat in the back seat, sitting on the left side for a while, and on the right side for a while, holding her mobile phone, taking pictures here and there, and the photo album on her mobile phone was full of novel scenes.

After walking for a while, Ding Mu also saw a lot of people walking along both sides of the road and along the path along the river bank. Many indigenous people carried wooden baskets and a lot of luggage, walking step by step deeper into the rain forest.

Ding Mu asked curiously: "Do these people walk to the middle of the island instead of taking a car?"

Guo Pingfan nodded and said: "Yes, the main island of the Airplane Country is actually not very big. Even if you walk from the seaside to the center, it is about 100 kilometers away. With their foot strength, it will take them two days at most. I can walk back to the tribe. This way, I can save a lot of money."

Ding Mu nodded to express that it was easy to understand, and then continued to ask: "How many tribes are you talking about?"

Guo Pingfan thought for a while and said: "There are about ten big ones and countless small ones. But there is only one largest one, which is the mother tribe of all tribes, called the Paradise Tribe. The other tribes are all branched off from this tribe. Yes, what we are going to is the largest paradise where sacrifices are most solemn."

Looking sideways to see Ding Mu listening carefully, Guo Pingfan continued: "These tribes all retain the most primitive way of life. There is no running water, no electricity, no Internet, and no mobile phone signal. They live the most primitive life. , hunting and gathering in the rainforest. However, it is because of the current road. Changes are also taking place in the tribe. Modern life is also affecting the tribe. It may take another three to five years. The truly authentic tribal life will be I can’t see it anymore!”

Ding Mu nodded. He knew that this kind of modern life was a subversive and fatal blow to primitive life. If the people in the tribe were assimilated into modern society, they would step from primitive society into modern society in minutes. Life. It may lead to the extinction of a primitive culture. However, these may be inevitable! One day, these primitive cultures living in the deep mountains and old forests will enter the museum and disappear in the long river of history.

After chatting for a while, the road felt increasingly difficult to walk. Although it can still be seen that it has been repaired, it is just full of potholes, which may have been soaked by rain, and some are rotten. The ruts are deep and difficult to walk. It is impossible for an off-road vehicle to pass through. With Guo Pingfan's skills, he can drive at a speed of about 15 kilometers per hour, which is not much faster than walking.

In the evening, the three of them went to the only slightly modern and dilapidated motel near the tribe to rest for a while. They couldn't sleep all night.

Early the next morning, at dawn, we could continue driving. Guo Pingfan took Ding Mu and Xu Hening and continued walking deep into the rain forest. Today was the day of sacrifice. In almost half an hour, the three of them arrived at the location of the Paradise Tribe. Guo Pingfan parked the car far away, and the three of them got out of the car with their luggage.

As soon as he got off the car, Ding Mu sighed: "It really feels like heaven, so beautiful. The air is good, and the oxygen content in it must be high." The place is very empty, with the sound of gurgling water around it. Except that the sky is blue, the clouds are white, and everything is green. Xu Hening was already taking pictures everywhere.

There are some wood carvings standing in the tribe, the styles are probably similar, and they are all very different from the fertility worship wood carvings that Xu Hening selected for Ding Mu. Obviously, this kind of wood carving is similar to the totem of this tribe.

The tribe has entered into a festive atmosphere of sacrifice. Many men, with their dark upper bodies naked and thick grass skirts on their lower bodies, lined up to dance together. The children were in groups of three and five, playing unknown games in a circle.

Ding Mu walked into the tribe. It feels like the people in the tribe are not as scary and exclusive as imagined. Some people saw them along the road, and they all cast curious glances, but no one came to ask, and no one came to stop them, allowing them to move around freely in the tribe. Anyway, there's nothing valuable here that makes people think about it.

Guo Pingfan directly led Ding Mu and Xu Hening through several huts and walked to the highest hut in the center of the tribe. The airplane man's hut is very unique. First, surround a circle of fence, and then use thatch to build a conical, or nearly conical, house. There are windows at half a person's height below, while the top is piled very high. This largest hut in the center of the tribe is where the tribal chief lives.

The three people walked to the chief's hut in a grand manner. Guo Pingfan walked in directly. He said BULA in the local dialect, then took out a wad of money and handed it over, and started chatting with the chief in English. "My guests are from Dahua. We want to take a look at the local sacrificial activities and hope to participate together."

The chief is a very educated man, at least he knows the US dollar. Guo Pingfan handed over five 100-dollar knives. He was immediately overjoyed and expressed a warm welcome to Ding Mu and Xu Hening. He wanted to receive guests from far away places with the highest courtesy. He asked someone to bring out a kind of wine, invited Ding Mu and Xu Hening to drink it, and introduced that the name of the wine was Kula.

It was hard to resist the hospitality. Ding Mu took a few sips and felt an earthy smell. The taste was really ordinary, but it was quite refreshing. Guo Pingfan smiled and said: "It is said that there are some prohibited ingredients in it! It is very rare."
