Chapter 68: Footsteps

Ah Jin fell straight down, but she didn't go straight to the slate bridge, I and the jar roared heartbreakingly, we all thought Ah Jin would fall into the abyss!

But at the moment when Ah Jin was about to miss the slate bridge, she suddenly stretched out a hand and clasped it on the edge of the slate bridge, and she hung herself in the air with only one left hand!

Immediately afterwards, Ah Jin leaned down, grabbed my neck with his other hand mercilessly and lifted me up, and the cylinder also took the opportunity to adjust his posture to help Ah Jin pull me onto the slate bridge.

I lay on the slate bridge, clutching my neck and gasping for breath, shrunk into a ball in embarrassment, Ah Jin pulled his left hand and held his right hand and easily climbed onto the suspended slate bridge.

I cowered on the stone bridge in horror, Ah Jin looked down at me like a god, and there was a hint of relief on his face after the worry had dissipated.

"Thank you for saving your life..."I lay on the ground and clenched my fists.

Ah Jin nodded slightly and said, "Then do you want to make a promise?" ”

I didn't know how to answer, and the jar reprimanded the girl at the time, "You won't watch this kind of martial arts TV series in the future, the purpose of buying you a TV and a computer is to let you learn and let you understand the world, don't know to watch those unrealistic things." ”

After a short rest, I got up and looked left and right, but there was nothing to see, after all, there was no boundless darkness around me.

The one-meter-wide stone bridge beneath our feet sloped slightly downwards and was winding its way into the unknown.

I squatted down and touched the slate bridge, and found that there were carved patterns on it, which at first glance looked like waves, stretching forward in a line, layer by layer, and for a moment I couldn't guess what I wanted to say.

The jar also squatted down and looked at the stone bridge, and said in his mouth, "What is this, dragon scales?" ”

Hearing him say this, I also think that these wavy carvings are probably describing scales and other things, and the stone bridge is slender and long, winding, but there is really a bit of "dragon" artistic conception in it.

Seeing that I was squatting on the ground thinking, the jar asked me what was wrong, and I told the story of this dragon bridge.

A few years ago, I went to Chengdu on business, and I remember very well that there was a place called Longqiao Square in Chengdu's Xindu District, where there were many shops and shops, eating, drinking, wearing, and everything, and it was very lively.

In the north of Longqiao Square is the winding river, there is a north-south reinforced concrete bridge on the river, the bridge is not big or small to go to and from four lanes, but it has a heart-warming legend.

It is said that there was once a widow's daughter, one day in order to get medicine for her sick mother across the river, on the way home to grab medicine, suddenly a rainstorm, the center of the lake waves rolling, the water vapor, a look from a distance made the girl tremble.

Seeing this, the girl knew that she couldn't deliver medicine to her mother in time, so she cried loudly, but her filial piety seemed to alarm the one-horned oolong at the bottom of the river.

The torrential rain and the worry about her mother's condition caused the girl to faint after crying for a while, so the unicorn dragon appeared in its original form, and the head and tail were on the river, and the girl was awakened by the rain and suddenly saw that there was an extra bridge over the river, so she ran up.

After the girl went to the bridge, she felt that her feet were slippery and soft, and when she looked down at the dark blue scales as big as tiles under her feet, the girl was very scared, but in order to send medicine to her mother, she could only bite the bullet and run across the dragon bridge against the storm.

After the rainstorm, the villagers built a wooden bridge here for the convenience of access, and the wooden bridge is the predecessor of the current reinforced concrete bridge.

The jar listened with relish, and Ah Jin also stared straight and didn't know what he was thinking.

However, I don't tell this story casually, I always feel that in this so-called "dragon and phoenix" cave, there is a dragon bridge that should represent a special meaning, as for what it is, I just can't think of it for the time being.

The jar pondered for a moment, and there was some aftertaste: "Do you mean that we just like that little girl back then, stepping on the back of a dragon?" ”

"What I'm talking about is just a metaphor, but don't forget that this is the Burial Gu Hall, this stone bridge may have something to do with some evil Gu technique, don't take it lightly."

The jar laughed, "Yo, you're going to say it's going to be taken lightly?" It's quite cultured. ”

I went back at the time, "You think I'm as big and thick as you, but I don't know if it's a "one" when I fall down." ”

I am not as nervous as I was just now, although the future is unknown, but at least we have not encountered any danger for the time being, so let's take one step at a time, after all, we have all been here before.

Just before we pulled out, I struggled.

It was dark in front of us now, and since we wanted to go, we had to choose the right direction, and no one had to go down the slope, so I planned to go back and go up for a while.

Ah Jin was originally behind me, but as soon as he turned around, he became the team leader, and I didn't plan to let her walk first, so I squeezed face to face with her on the small narrow bridge that was one meter wide, and changed positions.

Ah Jin is really fragrant, even if we have just experienced crawling and rolling all over the mud and blood, she still has a faint floral fragrance, is it that girls are born with some taste?

I thought about it and walked cautiously up the slope, not daring to leave the ground for a moment, for fear that one would accidentally stumble and fall off the stone bridge.

There is no light underneath this, it is pitch black and deep, and now I believe that someone tells me that it leads to the eighteen layers of hell below.

After walking up for nearly ten minutes, I began to regret it a little, I had just planned to see what was on the slope so that I could determine which direction to go, but I didn't expect that this walk would be headless, and it made me a little difficult to ride a tiger.

The jar also saw my concerns, "What do you say brother?" Do you continue up or do you turn back and go down the slope? ”

I scratched my head a little embarrassed, "Actually, I just didn't want us to go the wrong way, so I went up, and as a result, I didn't go forward or backward now, it's really fucking embarrassing." ”

I looked back at the jar and saw that he was tilting his head sideways, as if listening intently.

I was just about to call him when I heard a series of very small "clicks" in my ears, very much like the sound of footsteps coming from far, far away, and it was a hard-soled shoe.

Seeing that I also realized it, the jar asked softly, "Someone is running in leather shoes?" ”

The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and it was not difficult to tell that the footsteps were coming towards us from the slope of the stone bridge.

Listen to the movement, and in a few seconds we will meet the owner of the string of footsteps.
