Chapter Seventy-One: Soaring to the Sky at Night
Old Man He sat in the co-pilot, Xin Yifan drove the car, and the other three sat in the back.
According to the road pointed out by Mr. He, after the car entered the Fanshan Mountains, the road began to narrow, and only one car could be accommodated.
The old man is an anxious man, after promising Xin Yifan and others, he immediately took Xin Yifan and others to the mountain, and after arriving at Xiangyangwa, the sun had just set, and the sky was dark.
When the road reached the edge near the sunny concave, there was no way to go further, and the old man He said that there were at least three or four miles away from the cliff with the hole, and everyone could only walk.
Ye Zilan helped Old Man He all the way, the old man's hands and feet were very sharp, but his eyes couldn't see clearly, and it was getting late, so if he fell, it would be troublesome.
Xin Yifan, Lu Xuran, and Zhou Shuwan needed to bring the prepared ropes and wooden wedges.
There is no road to the sun, everyone can only slowly grope up one foot deep and one foot shallow, about two hours away, a towering mountain looming in the dark, Xin Yifan scanned it with his consciousness, and found that the mountain wall is at least a hundred meters high, and there is a road at the top of the mountain wall, leading to a building.
Xin Yifan continued to extend his consciousness to the side of the building, and found that the figure here was Zhuozhuo, and the outline of the building soon entered Xin Yifan's mind, a typical Taoist architectural style.
The main building is built according to the mountain, from top to bottom is the main building in turn, built on the top of the mountain, the momentum is magnificent, the three Qing ancestors are enshrined inside, and then down is the bell tower and the drum tower that correspond to the building on both sides, there is a tablet corridor on the mountainside, and then below are two large halls, which are dedicated to this series of Taoist immortals.
There are also a series of murals such as Zhang Tianshi, the protector god of Taoism, in the gate hall below.
On both sides, there are back halls, warehouses, wing rooms, dining halls, kitchens, etc., and Xin Yifan's consciousness has been extended to the gatehouse and the dismount pavilion.
The entire Taoist temple came into view, and Xin Yifan focused on searching the back hall, warehouse, and wing room, and there was no trace of his parents at all.
Xin Yifan couldn't help but be a little puzzled, could it be that his parents were not on this cupola view, or was there any secret path in this cupola view?
Old man He saw that Xin Yifan had been stunned, and thought that Xin Yifan was a little scared, so he said: "Young man, if you are worried, you won't go up, after all, if you go up, you will enter the wolf's den!"
"Old man, I'm not worried and afraid, I don't know if my parents are on it, and I want everyone to accompany me on the adventure. Xin Yifan said hesitantly, after all, he didn't find any trace of his parents in his consciousness just now, and let Lu Xuran and Zhou Shuwan accompany him to go on an adventure, and his heart was a little uneasy.
"Sir, we have all arrived at the foot of the mountain, if we don't go up to see it, you can rest assured, we still have the ability to retreat. Lu Xuran patted his chest and said, how could such a smart person not understand Xin Yifan's worries.
"Yes, sir, it's not like I haven't taken risks with you, but we can't beat us and we can't run!" Zhou Shuwan also said optimistically.
Xin Yifan nodded, and then said to Ye Zilan: "Xiaolan, you will accompany the old man below, and we will go up in a while, you will drive the car to the outside of the mountain road at the main gate of the Rushing Sky Temple, and we will come out directly from the main gate when the time comes." ”
Ye Zilan also knew that following her would not play any role, but might become a burden to several people, so she reluctantly agreed to the driver's job arranged by Xin Yifan.
"Also, you must be careful when you drive down the mountain and drive slowly, you know?" Xin Yifan instructed again.
"I know, brother, you must be careful with Xuran and Shuwan. Ye Zilan also said worriedly.
"Sister Xiaolan, don't worry, the steel pipe is in your hand, I have it in the world!" Lu Xuran shook the steel pipe in his hand, and then inserted it into his waist.
"Old man, thank you very much, I'll let Xiaolan send you down the mountain first. Xin Yifan said that, and bowed deeply to Old Man He.
Old Man He waved his hand, and it was estimated that he couldn't see Xin Yifan's actions clearly, so he said lightly: "Don't talk about this, if you decide to go up, you will nail the wedge and hang the rope." ”
Xin Yifan, under the guidance of Mr. He, first found the chiseled hole, and then nailed the wooden wedge prepared before, for Xin Yifan, who has rich experience in field archaeology, this is nothing, but the cliff is more than 100 meters high, and it took nearly two hours for Xin Yifan to nail dozens of wooden wedges into the chiseled hole, he nailed the wooden wedge while tying the rope, and after he went up the mountain behind the cupola, he found a big stone, so Xin Yifan tied the rope to the big stone and threw the other rope down.
Speaking of preparing such a long rope, Mr. He really thought of a way, he personally went to the hardware store in the town and said that he was going to let his daughter build a chicken farm outside the town, and he wanted to use a nylon rope to surround the yard, and bought five or six hundred meters of nylon rope and dozens of meters of iron wire, and then everyone wrapped the three ropes into a thick one and fastened it with iron wire, so that it became a climbing rope of more than 200 meters.
Wooden wedges are easier to do, every household here burns firewood, there is no shortage of wood, and Mr. He remembers the approximate size of these chiseled holes.
The trunk of the off-road vehicle driven by Xin Yifan and others was also full.
Lu Xuran saw that he threw down the end of the rope above, and then raised his head to look at the top of the cliff, and after seeing the light signal that had been agreed in advance, Lu Xuran pulled up the rope vigorously, stepped on the wedge nailed by Xin Yifan and climbed up, Ye Zilan and Zhou Shuwan used mobile phones and flashlights to show him the way.
In about ten minutes, Lu Xuran climbed to the top of the cliff, and then Zhou Shuwan, and the whole process was very smooth.
Xin Yifan was also relieved to see that the two students had safely reached the top of the cliff, if they fell, the consequences would be unimaginable.
The three of them first lay on the top of the cliff and used a flashlight to signal Ye Zilan below, and after Ye Zilan saw it, she also shook the flashlight in her hand, which was the signal they had agreed.
Next, Ye Zilan had to help Old Man He back to the car, and then drive the car to the entrance of the Cupola Temple, and it would take at least an hour or two to make a circle from Xiangyang, and it should be slower at night.
Xin Yifan and the three of them saw that the main building of the cupola was dozens of meters away at the top of the cliff, and there was only a very faint light inside at this time, and the three of them cautiously approached the main hall of the main building.
Xin Yifan had searched just now, and there were only two people in the hall who were on duty at night, and they were also playing with their mobile phones at this time. The three of them went around to the main entrance of the main hall from behind, the main gate was half-hidden, Xin Yifan pushed the door open, and the door creaked.
"Who?" someone inside asked.
Xin Yifan and the three of them rushed in, and without waiting for the two people inside to make a second sound, they fell directly to the ground. Then they dragged them to the corner of the main hall and covered them with a curtain.
After the three of them walked out of the door of the main hall, they walked directly to the wing room, Xin Yifan's search just now found that there was a large wing room in the innermost, and there were a man and three women in the room.
Most of the rest of the people are still in the two halls in front, and there are twenty or thirty people sitting in each hall, as if they are doing evening classes, they are all wearing gray clothes, Xin Yifan can "hear" someone preaching, and the person who is preaching is wearing a navy blue wide Hanfu, and the content is the set of the three doors.
When he was about to approach the wing, Xin Yifan whispered to Zhou Shuwan: "Shuwan, you will keep a sentry for us outside for the time being, and I will go in with Xuran first, and then come out to call you later." ”
"Sir, didn't you say that there are four people, and the three of us should go in and control them as soon as possible. Zhou Shuwan asked puzzled.
Xin Yifan looked at Lu Xuran, and then at Zhou Shuwan, not knowing how to explain, so he said: "Shuwan, there are one man and three women inside, you may find it unsightly when you go in." ”
After hearing Xin Yifan's explanation, both of them understood, but Zhou Shuwan was not embarrassed, but said to Xin Yifan: "Mr. is too worried, Xuanmen is not a secular person, this kind of thing is the way of humanity, and the normal harmony of yin and yang is in line with the way of nature, sir, since you know that there are one man and three women inside, you must be practicing the way of adultery, how can I be alone because of worldly prejudice and put you and Xuran in danger." ”
Zhou Shuwan's great truth is righteous, Xin Yifan really can't find anything to refute her, and people are doing the right thing for the sky, so they can't help but let the family do the way, which will make her heart weak and burdened.
Lu Xuran pursed his lips with a noncommittal expression, as if he was blaming Xin Yifan for thinking too much.
"Alright, let's go in together. Xin Yifan nodded a little speechlessly.
As soon as the three of them approached the door of the side room, they could hear the heavy wheezing sound and the woman's ** voice, Xin Yifan only felt that his ears were red, and this scene made him a little embarrassed with his students.
Lu Xuran and Zhou Shuwan's faces did not change, the two of them just frowned, especially Zhou Shuwan showed a look of disgust, they both looked at Xin Yifan, waiting for his instructions and ready to break into the door at any time.
Xin Yifan whispered softly to the two, pointed out the general layout of the room, and then was about to start, when a woman's miserable screams came from inside, which seemed particularly infiltrating on this night!
Taking advantage of this scream, Xin Yifan kicked open the door of the wing, jumped into the room, and saw the man leap up, and the fist in his hand was pointed directly at the man's chest.
"Who?" the man shouted, and when he saw Xin Yifan flying over, he immediately grabbed a woman next to him and threw it at Xin Yifan, Xin Yifan could only change his fist when he saw this, and blocked the woman who was thrown over with his arm.
At this time, the man saw the situation and pulled out a short sword from under the pillow, just like Xin Yifan stabbed it. Seeing this, Lu Xuran pulled out the steel pipe on his waist and knocked it on the man's wrist, the man immediately pulled a sword flower to defuse the attack of Lu Xuran's steel pipe, and Xin Yifan also took the opportunity to pull out the steel pipe and attack the man's head.
The women in the room screamed, and Zhou Shuwan immediately shot at these women, stunted the three women to the ground one by one, and then joined the battle group of Xin Yifan and the three.
This man was covered in fine flesh, his whole body was **, and a short sword actually blocked the attack of the three people, and while he was defending, he asked in a deep voice: "Who are you, why are you attacking me?" ”
Xin Yifan didn't say a word, and took the steel pipe in his hand to attack the naked man from different directions.
