Li Yingchang, a teacher of Wa nationality in Siyong Primary School in Laimeng Town, is a smart middle-aged man with medium build and accurate marksmanship. He is a famous hunter. 1980 After the Spring Festival, he shot and killed a strange animal he had never seen before in the collective hunting in Daheishan behind Wenghei Village. Because he looks like a human being, he has been condemned by everyone, which puts great pressure on his mind and fears that the government will investigate his criminal responsibility. Therefore, he was full of worries and never wanted to say it. Only under the patient explanation of the secretary of the Party Committee of the commune did he realize that understanding this problem is an important contribution to national scientific research. He and his lover carefully recalled and described the process of hunting rare animals, and handed over the preserved left palm specimen and a small amount of brain marrow to the relevant departments.
That happened at the beginning of 1980. At that time, the northland was already in the dead of winter, but the subtropical Cangyuan mountain area was still beautiful and warm as spring. Around 65438120, Wenghei Murata always carried a water gun and went to the mountainous area at the southern foot of Daheishan behind the village to guard crops. He is also a famous hunter in the village, and has accumulated rich experience in hunting practice for many years. He set up a high lookout in the field, so that he could climb high and look far, protect crops and observe the movements of wild animals at any time. On this day, he sat on a high shack, smoking and observing, and saw nothing.
He climbed down and walked to the ground near the forest and found many fresh red deer footprints. According to his hunting experience for many years, he immediately judged that a group of red deer had just run here. So he took the gun, took the path, climbed the cliff and rushed to the fork in the road to wait. He believes that red deer will pass by. As expected, a group of red deer jumped in turn in a short time. He crouched under a big tree and hid with a gun in his hand. Just as he was about to shoot the first red deer, the second red deer followed. He was about to shoot the second one when the third one came again. At this time, a strange sight appeared. On the back of the fourth largest red deer, I saw a humanoid animal with long hair riding. At the same time, it let out a cry and grabbed the hair on its neck with its right hand. In an instant, the rest of the red deer jumped past the field one by one. He remembered clearly that the humanoid animal was as big as a child of eight or nine years old, but its face was like a boy of thirteen or fourteen years old, with long hair and red and yellow, as if wearing a military uniform. He was stunned by the strange sight he had never seen before, and it took him a long time to wake up.
After the Spring Festival, Tian organized seventy or eighty youths from the stockade to hunt in the virgin forest of Daheishan behind the village. He selected more than 10 people with good marksmanship, and ambushed them on the hill in the northwest at regular intervals, especially arranging battalion commander Li at the fork in the road where he personally met strange animals. The others rushed to the ambush area from the opposite direction, barking incessantly. With the gunshot, other companions killed a muntjac and a porcupine, but nothing happened in front of battalion commander Li, who was wondering. Suddenly, in the jungle in front of him, there was a noisy sound. Looking up, a strange animal is running in his direction along the slope, shaking his hair a few steps and then shaking his hair a few steps. Battalion commander Li was about to shoot when the guy found him and quickly turned and ran back, with great agility. When I was near the top of the slope, I saw the strange animal looking back at him. Just then, Li Yingchang aimed at his chest, knocked him to the ground with one shot, rolled down the hillside and died in the ravine, with blood spattered on the slope.
Hearing the gunshot, people gathered around battalion commander Li. A man asked him, "What did you hit?"
"What is it? Look! " Li yingchang pointed to the prey in front. People walked over and took a look, surprised, and blamed him for hitting this "big" (grandfather), because the deceased in front of them was not an ordinary savage, but a humanoid animal very similar to the old man, with long hair and gray-black hair all over his body. He was tall, about 1.5 meters, with a white face, forehead, big eyes and eyebrows. So the whole village broke the convention and didn't share this strange animal.
The village accountant helped battalion commander Li carry the prey home together, which is estimated to be about 40 pounds. Li yingchang gave his prey to his wife, relatives and friends to shave, wash and cook, and then went to another house to eat muntjac. His wife, Zhao Yuban, cut a piece of meat from every part of the prey and put it in a pot to cook, but it was too fishy, so she dumped it without eating it. Later, battalion commander Li had to dry the meat, and after a year or so, he gradually finished eating it, leaving only his chin and left palm as souvenirs and his brain as medicine. 1982, due to job transfer, he burned his mandible with other animal heads.
After 1984 1 month, the specimen of the left lower palm was identified by experts such as vertebrate paleontology Institute of Paleoanthropology, Shanghai Institute of Zoology of East China Normal University, Shanghai Natural Museum, etc., and it was an Ankylosing Ape of China Academy of Sciences. Professor Jia Lanpo, an academician of China Academy of Sciences, a famous archaeologist and paleoanthropologist, pointed out in the appraisal book: "There was no record of syndactyly gibbon in China in the past. The discovery of its feet this time is a great achievement and worthy of appreciation. "
Syndactylus is the largest anthropoid ape of all gibbons. It was first discovered in Sumatra and Malaysia, but it is not recorded in China. This is the first time in China. The main characteristics of this specimen are that the toe is rhombic, the toe is slender, the big toe is thick and developed, the toe ends of the palm and toenails are upturned, the second, third, fourth and fifth toes are shorter than gibbons, and the first joints of the second and third toes are connected by a layer of skin membrane. Because the individuals who refer to each other are quite tall, and their images are very similar to those of human beings, some locals mistake them for "savages". So, are there any other clues and traces? The answer is yes!
1In August, 1982, Boss Bao, a Wa nationality in Banlie, captured an "Gu" alive with an iron clip, kept him at home for more than two months, and died of his injuries in June, 1982. The master put it in an iron cage before he died. Out of curiosity, Xu Shouqing carefully observed it twice. This strange animal called "ancient" by the Wa people is different from ordinary monkeys and orangutans. He looks like an old man. His face, forehead and chin are all white, his brow bone, cheekbones and mouth are slightly protruding. He is tall, about 1.4 meters, with gray-black hair, shoulder-length, and basic division of labor between hands and feet. He looks like a human being, and he can't see his tail. He has only a hairless meatball of about one inch, which is like a form of tail degeneration. There are expressions of joy, anger, sadness, joy and shame. According to Tian Nikuai, a famous local hunter, he has captured three "ancients" in recent years, female, male, big and small, and made a detailed observation in the forest. In addition to the above characteristics, "Gu" can also catch fish and crabs in the river, move trunks to catch soil silkworms, live in groups of 70 or 80, basically live on the ground, climb trees occasionally, but can't jump. Have a strong sense of collective, take care of each other, and collectively help transfer if the companion is unfortunately injured. If they are killed, they will carry them to a hidden place, dig out the soil and bury them, and carry out "burial", so that the relationship between the two sexes will be fixed and hidden. All these show that "Gu" is an anthropoid animal that we don't know yet, and its image is very similar to the exotic animals captured by Li Yingchang. Is it the same kind or other unknown primate? Need further investigation by scientists.
There have been many cases of encountering "savage" in Gongsa area, and Wei Daoli's witness and encounter is one of the most typical cases.
Wei Daoli, male, Wa nationality, lost his father at an early age. Because he had no life, he took refuge in the villagers and was adopted by others. 1954 one morning in midsummer, he carried a sack on his back and went to the virgin forest to collect feed leaves. The sun has just come out of the mountain, and the forest is still gloomy. 16-year-old Wei Daoli stood under a feed tree and reached for the leaves. He had just put the first feed leaf into the bag when suddenly a guy snatched the thread cap he was wearing from behind. He reacted instinctively, jerked back, grabbed it from the guy and put it in a linen bag. He looked up and was shocked, because it was not a person standing in front of him, but a "savage" who was often talked about by others. See "savage" slightly taller than him, naked. Long hair is just a rag on the back. Hair is reddish brown, longer than shoulders. She is a woman with long breasts. Her face looks like a human, but her brow bone, cheekbones and mouth are slightly convex. Her face is dark red and her cheeks are bright, like an actor with makeup. What impressed him most and scared him most was the savage's eyes. According to Wei Daoli, its eyeball is blue and shiny, just like a cat's eye. In a flash, after seeing all this, he involuntarily turned and ran back, running six or seven kilometers at a time. When I got home, I fell into bed, scared unconscious, and didn't wake up until the evening. Only then did I tell my relatives and friends about the encounter with the "savage" in the morning.
Banhong, located in the west of Cangyuan County, is adjacent to the virgin forest of Daheishan in the north and Nangun River Nature Reserve in the south. The forest here is vast and covers an area of about 733.33 hectares. The territory is rich in animal and plant resources, and it is also a place where "savages" often haunt.
1September 1967, Hu Deren, 17 years old, worked at home after graduating from junior high school. One morning, the production team arranged for him and his uncle boss Zhang to go to Ma Company to guard the cornfield. Mabanbian is about 10 km away from Banhong Dazhai. Located in the southwest of Daheishan, there are forests in the north and hillsides in the south. In order to protect crops, they built two temporary shacks in the corn field, one by the ground and the other by the feet. The two shacks are not far away, and they can hear each other shouting, but they can't see each other because of the cover of mature corn.
This morning, around 10, Boss Zhang was cooking and making tea in the shack under his feet, and Hu Deren was stationed in the shack on the ground, sitting on the bed and resting. Suddenly, he saw a strange humanoid animal coming out of the forest at the door and approaching his shack. Seeing Hu Deren, he grinned. At that time, Hu Deren was terrified. First of all, "Savage" shook the shack vigorously. Then, the "savage" walked into the shack, touched Hu Deren's chest with both hands, fell sideways, and touched his lower body from time to time ... Hu Deren felt that his palm was warm and harmless. At this time, the Hooder saw clearly that "Savage" was a woman, taller than him, with breasts about a foot long, long naked hair, long disheveled hair and sparse black-red hair, revealing her yellow skin, narrow forehead, prominent brow ridge and big eyes, which were very similar to the human beings under the eyebrows. Really scared Hu Deren. He couldn't scream if he wanted to. He tried to resist, but his hands and feet wouldn't listen to him. It was not until Boss Zhang yelled at his nephew for being lazy that the "savage" left in a hurry. When the "savage" left, his back was slightly bent, his body swayed, and his posture was like a child who just learned to walk, and he walked leisurely up the mountain. When the "savage" went away, Hu Deren ran to his uncle and told all the stories about the "savage". After that, he never dared to go there to keep the valley.
Scholars believe that there may be two kinds of "savages" in Cangyuan, Yunnan. One is race, which is mainly characterized by its small size, generally around 1.5 ~ 1.8 meters, and its hair is mostly gray-black; The second is the big species of "savage", whose main feature is that he is generally large, with a height of about 2 meters, long brown hair and large female breasts. Savages, regardless of their species, have the same activity pattern, that is, they come out to look for food or a spouse from August to September in a year.
1at the end of August, 982, the "savage" broke into the bamboo house of Hu Deli's family in Banhong Dazhai several times in a row.
Hudley is a clever middle-aged Wa man, 44 years old, with great courage. His bamboo house lives in the village. Hu Deli's wife is a A Dai woman with two children, and her mother sometimes lives with them. Hu can speak Chinese, and he speaks it fluently.
1982 At the end of August, his wife returned to her parents' home with her eldest daughter, leaving only him and her youngest son at home. On the evening of 30th, he led his son to rest in the back room as usual. At about 5 o'clock in the morning, the sudden noise woke him up from his sleep. After he heard a few knocks on the latch, a guy hurried into the room and suddenly heard only the footsteps of the bamboo building. Hu Deli immediately turned over and got up, holding a flashlight in his left hand and drawing a dagger from under his pillow in his right hand, and quickly chased him out. I saw a tall naked woman with long hair running towards the door. Chased to the door, has escaped and disappeared. His watchdog is still lying sideways at the door. When Hu shone a flashlight, the dog was neither injured nor ran away. Why doesn't the dog bark or bite when someone comes into the room? He felt very strange.
After entering the room, Hu Deli closed the door and specially strengthened the bolt before going to bed. He tossed and turned in bed and couldn't sleep. In the past, he often heard that there were "savages" in the mountains, but he never saw them with his own eyes. Is it the "savage" who broke into the house tonight! Or something else? Why does it walk upright? Long hair? Thinking, thinking ... finally fell asleep. At dusk, he was awakened by a rush of footsteps. When Woodley sat up with a flashlight, I saw a tall female "savage" standing in the back room, grinning and holding out her hand to Woodley with open arms. With all his strength, Hu punched the savage in the stomach. When Hu drew a knife from under his pillow and prepared to fight with the savage, the savage ran away, and Hu didn't stop until he chased the door. According to his recollection, "Savage" was a woman with a big chest and a tall figure, and her head reached the top of the bamboo basket. After investigation, the height of the bamboo basket is 2.15m, which means that the "savage" is also about 2m. The hair is gray and black, reaching the arm, and the hair is sparse. When the "savage" grinned, Hu saw that his teeth were very big, about as wide as the fingers of ordinary people, his nose was very high, and his brow bones and cheekbones were prominent. Four early barbaric events
In the 1970s, the barbaric incident in Shennongjia attracted the attention of relevant departments. The relevant departments organized a savage scientific investigation team to enter Shennongjia for investigation and research. At the same time, they learned from local residents about four barbaric incidents that occurred during the Republic of China.
Yes 1942, it is said that it is "haunted" in Shennongjia mountain area of Fangxian county. Jia, the magistrate of Fangxian County, does not believe in ghosts and gods, and is determined to find this ghost. One day, he took the first and second squadrons of the public security team, * * * fifty or sixty people, and went up the mountain armed to the teeth.
It's sunny today, and there is still a little snow on the mountain. Jia and his party came to Huanglong Mountain, about 25 kilometers away from Shennongjia, which is said to be the location of the "monster". There is only one on Huanglong Mountain. Residents told Jia that monsters often called on the hillside behind their home, and the monsters called here for a long time that day. Jia ordered 30 soldiers to flank from the back with light machine guns. When he looked down, he saw two savages screaming there Jia looked carefully before he understood why the savage screamed. It turned out that a stump was split in half 200 meters away from him, and a wooden wedge was put in the middle to tie a bear. A male savage sat down to play, and the wooden wedge fell and caught his lower body, causing him to scream desperately. The female savage wants to pull it out, and it hurts even more when he pulls it out. The male savage was caught in the pain and fire, but he punched the female savage. The female savage is probably anxious and angry, spinning and screaming. Jia coughed and three machine guns "da, da, da" fired together. The male savage sitting fell to the ground, and suddenly there was a pool of blood. When the savage woman heard the gunshot, she ran away at an extraordinary speed. It runs on its feet and uses both hands and feet when going uphill.
The male savage who was killed was 2.2 meters tall, with brown hair, feet more than 30 centimeters long, hairless soles, thick white scorpions, pointed nails on his fingers and toes, fluffy hands, hairless palms and white scorpions. The face is fluffy, and the face shape is similar to that of a person, but the mouth is more prominent and the eyes are bigger.
1945, Fangxian killed another savage. A man named Cha Chengxian escaped from the Kuomintang army and came to Daping. Two families live here. Seeing several people on the threshing floor, the car squeezed in. It turned out that a female savage was killed on the ground, thin and long, about 2.5 meters high. The face is like a monkey, with round eyes, bigger ears, almost human arms and thin legs. The hair on the body is white and hemp, and the hair on the back is hemp red. Toes are slightly bent, fingers are longer than people, and hands and feet have claws one inch long. There is also a little savage lying next to the female savage, about 1 m long, with hair about 4 cm long and white hair. It is said that the savage mother and son ran to someone else's house to steal honey and were stung by bees. The savage woman chased the bees with both hands. Because her hands were covered with honey, she stuck her hair on her face and covered her eyes. As a result, Director Liu of UNPROFOR killed her with a rifle, and the little savage was killed by his dog.
There have also been incidents in Fangxian where savages were captured alive. Fangxian Public Security Brigade 1922 caught a red-haired savage in Nanshan. The savage was tied with thick chains and kept in a wooden cage half a man high, carried by four people. Height is about 1.8 meters, with whole body hair, brown hair and red hair roots. Hands and feet are longer than people, and fingers and toes are longer than people. Half bent, with a monkey face, eyes and nose like orangutans. Then the savage was tied to a big tree for people to watch. The barbarian was finally escorted to Xiangyang.
1942, the 75th Army of the Kuomintang took away two savages, a man and a woman, at the imperial border between Fangxian and Xingshan. The bodies, arms and feet of the two barbarians were bound by chains. Their heads are covered with red hair, their heads are bigger than their heads, their faces are long, their faces are hairy, their mouths are bigger than people, their hands are longer than people, and their hands and feet are hairy. Ears are bigger than people's. They are all 2 meters high. The male walks in front with tears, and the female is behind. They can do it in one step. When someone gave them corn to eat, they reached out and picked it up. It is said that the pair of savages were caught by a local farmer.
