"This fairy palace in the fog can only be seen in our village, and it can't be seen anywhere else. ”

"Is it a certain time to see this Asgard?"

As soon as the old village chief's voice fell, Weng Ping asked the old village chief a key question.

"What is a certain time? You people in the city talk strangely, don't you see this fog? As long as it rains and fogs in the mountains, you will definitely be able to see Asgard at this time the next morning. ”

The old village chief had a loud voice when he spoke, and when he answered Weng Ping's question, he even counted the people in the city.

After the old village chief said this to Weng Ping, I saw the old man take a bamboo basket from his back.

Bamboo basket? I didn't realize until now that this old man was carrying a bamboo basket.

It seems that this seventy-year-old man really wants to go with us.

Putting down the bamboo basket, the old man began to churn in the bamboo basket.

While tossing and turning, he asked us without raising his head: "I don't know what your names are, my surname is Qiu (qiu), you can call me Qiu Lao Jiu, and you can call me Qiu Lao Man." ”

This is obviously asking us, but this old man introduced himself first.

After the old man Qiu poured it in the bamboo basket for a while, he took out a bamboo tube about thirty centimeters long from the bamboo basket.

Stuffing the bamboo tube into Qin Yue's hand, the old man of Qiu reloaded his big bamboo basket.

"Put this thing here first, if I die in it, you can open it, if I don't die, you will return it to me when I return to the village." ”

After the old man Qiu dropped this sentence to us, he began to go down the mountain by himself.

Looking at the back of the old man Qiu, I don't know why, I always feel that this old man Qiu is the same as Sun Liansheng.

When the heart is dead, there is only a shell left.

Heaviness!

After Old Man Qiu dropped this sentence to us, I saw that Qin Yue's eyes were already full of heaviness.

"Brother Zhang. ”

Just when I was still immersed in the words that Old Man Qiu said, Sun Liansheng's voice suddenly sounded behind me.

When I turned to look at Sun Liansheng, Sun Liansheng had already put his hand in his coat.

I carefully took out a photo from my coat and placed it in my hand with a solemn face.

"Brother Zhang, this is a family photo of my family, you keep it for me first, if I can't get out of the fairy palace this time, you can find a place to bury this photo. ”

After Sun Liansheng dropped this sentence to me, he limped towards Old Man Qiu.

I subconsciously looked at the photo in my hand, this is a family photo of a family of three, the woman has a big belly, although she looks very ordinary, but her smile is very sweet, the man is holding a little boy in one hand, and the other hand is holding the woman's waist, smiling like a child.

The photo is also very light, but I feel heavy in my hand.

"Let's go!"

Qin Yue's voice sounded softly in my ears.

I raised my head and looked at Qin Yue, I don't know why, at this moment, I just wanted to take a look at Qin Yue, as if looking at Qin Yue, my heart would not be so heavy.

Carefully put this photo carrying all the memories of Sun Liansheng into the pocket of the windbreaker, and Qin Yue and I also began to walk down the mountain together.

Old man Qiu stood at the bottom of the mountain and waited for us, and after we all came down the mountain, this old man Qiu took the lead and went on the road alone.

Wengtou Village was closing the distance between us, and Old Man Qiu did not go to the mountain road at all, but led us around into a deep forest.

Entering the deep forest, I noticed a strange phenomenon.

This strange phenomenon is that the white mist in this deep forest is divided into two layers.

The thick fog gathered above our heads, and we were in a shallow mist.

Walking in this deep forest is like stepping into another world.

The world is serene and primitive.

And what we are stepping on under our feet is not the yellow mud that has been soaked by the rain, but the green wetland.

Unknown weeds and wildflowers cover the ground of this deep forest,

Looking up, there are clouds, down to grass and wildflowers, but in front of us is a hazy gray-white.

The white mist of light yarn flowed slowly in the gray, and on several occasions I almost couldn't help but touch them with my hands as I passed through these light gauze-like mist.

Wonderland! To be honest, it's really like a fairyland.

Pure air, pure mountain breeze, and pure faint forest fragrance.

In this fairyland away from the hustle and bustle, it seems that any troublesome things have been taken away by the fog in this fairyland.

Under the leadership of Old Man Qiu, we have walked very comfortably along the way.

On the other hand, this hated old man, don't look at the fact that he is already seventy years old, when he walks, his feet are like the wind, not only fast, but also very light. Even the breathing is even.

I don't know how long we've been walking in the mountains, but it's been at least three or four hours.

The scenery in front of us has not changed in any way, and the scenery around us has not changed in any way.

I have seen nothing but the white mist as soft as the light veil, the wild flowers and weeds beneath our feet, and the thick trunks of the trees.

"It's the thirteenth ditch. ”

Old Man Qiu's voice suddenly sounded in front, and when I heard Old Man Qiu's words, I couldn't help but feel a spirit.

Thirteen ditch, what kind of place is it, it will be given such a strange name.

Are there thirteen ravines in these thirteen ravines?

With this doubt in my heart, I also kept looking ahead.

The scenery ahead remained the same, and the pace of each of us began to speed up at this time.

And in the midst of this acceleration, I suddenly discovered-

We found that the weeds and wildflowers under our feet were gone.

No, not nothing, but withered!

Dead, all these wildflowers and weeds are dead?

"It's here!"

Just when I was still wondering how the weeds and wild flowers under our feet were dying, Old Man Qiu's voice sounded in front of us again.

At the same time as Old Man Qiu's voice sounded in front of us, I also heard a soft ding-dong sound.

With this soft ding-dong sound, I also heard a sound like a ghost crying wolf.

And at the same time that I heard these two sounds that suddenly sounded directly in front of me, I looked ahead of me.

A veil-like mist is flowing gently around us.

Through this veil-like mist, I saw one directly in front of me—a cave.

That's right, it's a cave.

The cave is only about one meter tall and about one meter wide.

Didn't you say you went to the Thirteenth Ditch?

Could it be that this cave is not the thirteen ditches?

"This is the Thirteen Ditch. We just put those bugs in the ditch every time. ”

When Old Man Qiu said this to us, Qin Yue and Gou Tang had already walked to the entrance of this cave.

The two women each put their hands into the so-called ditch.

Time seemed to freeze suddenly at this moment, and our eight pairs of eyes were all looking at Qin Yue and Gou Tang who were standing in front of the cave entrance.

"That's right, that's it. ”

A hoarse voice suddenly sounded at my feet.

Weng Ping!

It was Weng Ping who said this, and when I looked at Weng Ping, Weng Ping was crouching on the ground, staring closely at the dead wildflowers and weeds under our feet.

"Little Brother Zhang, look-"

Just when I was pondering what Weng Ping's words meant, Sun Liansheng's voice suddenly sounded behind me.

Hearing Sun Liansheng's words, I almost subconsciously looked at Sun Liansheng behind me.

However, when I looked at Sun Liansheng, the first thing that caught my eye was not Sun Liansheng, but a dead tree trunk next to Sun Liansheng.

The trunk of the dead tree was covered with pieces of dead bark that would never fall off.

And this piece of dead bark that will not fall off seems to be moving.

Was it my delusion? Or was it my dazzle?

I subconsciously took a step forward, and at the same time as I took this step-
