187. Fairy Rock hanging coffin
"Tan Hengheng, hum, it's like a pig barking, it's not good!"
Luo Kang listened to Tan Heng's words, almost laughed out of tears, and the loud voice attracted the curious eyes of many passers-by, and Zhang Xiwei, who wanted to put on a senior shelf, couldn't speak, because no matter whether it was Wudang or Quanzhen disciples, they all looked at Luo Kang without exception, and no one paid attention to the conversation between him and Cheng Hengyi.
"Alright! You restrain yourself a little, don't be ashamed of Quanzhen! Hearing Tan Heng's low reminder, Luo Kang noticed how much attention he was at the moment, and hurriedly collected his voice and hid behind Huang Tianba.
Seeing that the environment was quieter, Zhang Xiwei cleared his throat and said: "The Quanzhen sect is also a branch of Taoism, don't be willing to fall, you can do it yourself!" ”
After that, he led the Wudang disciples to leave.
Sending off these pretentious people, Luo Kang, Huang Tianba, Tan Heng and the other Quanzhen disciples continued to walk forward, and after a short time, they came to the Fairy Rock on the bank of the Luxi River.
The legend of Fairy Rock is named after the "fairy bathing", and the famous TV series has been filmed here, but what really makes it famous is the hanging coffins scattered on the cliffs with an inclination of more than 90 degrees.
On the flat river beach on the other side of the Fairy Rock Creek, nearly 1,000 tourists are already sitting on the ground, waiting for the upcoming hanging coffin performance.
Luo Kang and the others had just found a suitable place to sit down, only to hear a burst of bells and drums, Luo Kang looked up, and a few flat boats slowly drove on the Luxi River, and the larger one of them carried a wooden coffin.
An actor who looks like a Taoist, holding a peachwood sword, waving it indiscriminately and then picking a charm at the edge of the sword, seems to have words in his mouth.
In the eyes of insiders, this actor's performance was terrifying and clumsy, but just as Luo Kang and Tan Heng were sneering, the charm on the tip of the Taoist sword suddenly burned, and bursts of green smoke lingered above the coffin.
Luo Kang and Tan Heng didn't have time to be surprised, and saw that on the cliff, a man in yellow was slowly descending with a rope, hovering about twenty meters above the river.
Accompanied by the thunderous applause of the tourists, the man in yellow flipped and moved without protection, like a bird chasing, and like an ape playing.
After the stunt performance, he threw another rope end into the boat, and the staff on the boat skillfully fixed the coffin to the end of the rope, and as the crane at the top of the cliff wall moved, the wooden coffin was gradually raised to the front of the man in yellow.
The man in yellow made up his mind, then threw away his rope and jumped out, landing on the lid of the coffin with precision.
The man in yellow alternated his legs, and the coffin gradually swayed to his rhythm, and after a few minutes, the maximum distance of the coffin was very close to the cavern on the rock wall where the hanging coffin was placed.
"There must be counterweights in this wooden coffin, if it is an empty coffin, it is impossible to swing to such a large extent." Holmes analyzed matter-of-factly, and Luo Kang nodded his head frequently.
As they spoke, thunderous applause rang out on the river beach, and the two looked up to see that the man in yellow had finished placing the hanging coffin and was bowing to the audience at the entrance of the cave to thank him.
After the performance, the tourists on the river beach gradually dispersed, and Tan Heng said to Luo Kang: "This kind of performance, even it is difficult for me not to make mistakes." ”
Luo Kang responded: "This Dragon and Tiger Mountain is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger, it is worthy of being the birthplace of Taoism, and it took a lot of time to watch the performance, let's hurry up!" ”
"It doesn't matter, there is a ferry not far ahead, we can take a bamboo raft down the Luxi River, and we can reach the vicinity of Shangqing Ancient Town in about an hour."
As Tan Heng said, the ferry that the group soon saw, after charging 50 yuan per person, the staff arranged for them to board the two bamboo rafts, Luo Kang, Huang Tianba, Tan Heng, and Cheng Hengyi in the front, and the rest of the Quanzhen disciples in the back.
Longhu Mountain Scenic Area is a typical Danxia landform, the mountain rock layer has been weathered and eroded for tens of thousands of years, forming many mountain bags with the general shape of steamed buns, and the water of Luxi flows through these mountain bags, making this hour's water trip interesting.
Looking at the apes and wild cranes that were often seen on the mountain bag, Luo Kang avoided Tan Heng and Cheng Hengyi, who were chatting, and whispered to Huang Tianba: "Brother Huang, the dragons and tigers, mountains and rivers are beautiful, is it possible for these monkeys and cranes to achieve positive results here?" ”
Huang Tianba said: "Longhu Mountain is one of the blessed places of Taoist caves, the feng shui qi vein is extraordinary, but the first priority of wild immortal cultivation is to stay away from the world, there are too many people and tourists here, unless it is some extremely hidden, rarely visited deep mountains, otherwise there will never be wild immortals will choose to practice here." ”
An hour quickly passed in the lively conversation of several people, Tan Heng looked at the scenery on both sides of the Luxi River, gradually changing from mountains and rivers to buildings, and expected that the destination Shangqing Ancient Town was not far away, so he said to Luo Kang: "Brother Luo, after going ashore for a while, our senior brothers will not accompany you to visit, the ancient town is not far from the Heavenly Master's Mansion, we have to hurry up and meet with Master and Master." ”
"Heavenly Master's Mansion! Then we ......" Luo Kang was about to propose to go with Tan Heng and the others, but was stopped by Huang Tianba.
"Then we're going to take a stroll, a few please!"
After getting off the bamboo raft and bidding farewell to Tan Heng and the others, Luo Kang asked, "Brother Tianba, aren't we going to the Heavenly Master's Mansion?" Although Longhu Mountain was very fond of Luo Kang's intentions, the concern for Lin Zi in his heart still made him eager to complete the task as soon as possible and return to Jinmen.
"Now is the time when those Taoist priests gather in the Heavenly Master's Mansion, according to the information provided by the Ten Palaces, before dusk, they will conduct 'Jiao Jiao Discussion', and then there will only be tourists in the Heavenly Master's Mansion, so we can start investigating the Four Elephant Treasure Plate." Huang Tianba explained.
Luo Kang looked at his watch, there were still about two hours left, he shook his head helplessly, and had to enter the Shangqing Palace next to the ancient town of Shangqing with Huang Tianba, in fact, to pass the time.
Shangqing Palace was built in the Eastern Han Dynasty, since the Northern Song Dynasty opened the foundation to set up the altar, through the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, it is a religious place where the heavenly master expounds the law and subdues demons and destroys demons.
Luo Kang and Huang Tianba walked from south to north, visiting the Dragon and Tiger Gate, the Jade Emperor Palace, the Houtu Palace, the Sanqing Pavilion and the side halls on the east and west sides in turn.
Luo Kang couldn't help but sigh in his heart as he walked, the historical status of Longhu Mountain, in terms of the scale of the building alone, this Shangqing Palace is far from being comparable to the Taoist attractions in other places, thinking that the Heavenly Master's Mansion is the core of Longhu Mountain, Luo Kang can't help but have some expectations in his heart.
Walking to the back of the Shangqing Palace Scenic Area, a building smaller than other immortal halls caught Luo Kang's eye.
The decoration of this building is plain and inconspicuous, but what caught Luo Kang's attention is that his doors and windows are sealed with oversized charms.
Going around to the front of the building, Luo Kang looked up and saw a plaque hanging high on the front, with three big characters written on it: Fu Demon Palace.
"Could it be ...... here" Luo Kang looked at Huang Tianba in surprise.
"That's right," Celestial Master Zhang prayed for the plague. Captain Hong mistakenly walked away from the demon. This is where the first story is written! ”
