Chapter 6 Nomura Guluo Old Locust Tree

The fat man walked to the village first, but at this moment, the two quiet dogs suddenly bared their teeth and howled, lowered their heads and made an attack to stop the fat man's direction.

"Your grandma's, even you see my fat man as kind and easy to bully, right?"

The fat man learned the movements of the two dogs, and his teeth were also fierce.

The two dogs were frightened by the fat man's movements, and their voices changed from low growls to barking, but they still did not dodge the way.

The fat man picked up a few stones from the ground and shot them at one of the dogs, and the dog immediately turned around and ran away when he was in pain, and the other dog saw that the fat man was aiming the slingshot at it and hurriedly barked twice and ran away.

Captain Jin stepped forward: "It seems that these two dogs do not welcome us to visit the village, everyone should be cautious." ”

I would also like to remind everyone that while several versions have proven that the village is not struck by lightning, we must not be careless.

Lin Xiyin is wearing tights to show her delicate figure, and she is heroic after curling her long hair.

I walked behind her, and the scent wafted in my heart.

The barren mountain village was dilapidated and disorganized, and the telephone poles were covered with vines and plants, forming a huge tent shape, and the fat man was bored, so he shot a slingshot into it, and nothing scared out.

"Chen Yuan, the silence here is a little special, have you two noticed it, there is not even a bird here!"

The fat man held a slingshot and aimed left and right, and really didn't find anything to fight.

"It's true, there are really no birds, you must know that the grain is ripe in this season, the melons and fruits are fragrant, and the sparrows should be chirping!"

The fat man said, "I miss those two dogs now, I don't know where I went?" What do you mean when you say the dog barks at us? ”

Lin Xiyin said: "Look at the shape that looks like the action of the protector, there is no one in this deserted village, I am afraid that this dog is a little couple, in order to protect their little dog." ”

"I can't see the footprints clearly, anyway, we're also blind, it's better to find these two dogs, in case we really give birth to a litter of puppies, let's take them back to raise."

The fat man looked down at the weeds and vines, looking for the footprints of the two dogs, but found nothing.

I said, "It's good that the dog family is the king in this village, so let's not mess with it." ”

The roads in the village are extremely uneven, paved with stone slabs in some places, muddy roads in others, and there is still a lot of water in the low places.

The fat man was sharp-eyed, and he was the first to find a few dog footprints in the wet mud in the pothole.

"You see, this must have been left by the dog to drink water, and we can find the baby puppy by following the direction of the footprints."

I wanted to stop the fat man, but he led the way, and besides, we didn't find any clues after a little wandering, so I followed the fat man's wishes.

Along the way, I carefully paid attention to the orientation pattern and architectural form of each household, and found that it was a commonly used yang house pattern, which is the most common building method in rural areas. If I had to find any difference, it would be that every household has a shadow wall, and there is nothing special about the shadow wall.

Lin Xiyin deliberately fell down and walked side by side with me, and her delicate appearance was even more beautiful against the backdrop of the deserted village.

I raised my hand to take a picture and said to her, "Hee Yin, it would be nice to have a DSLR camera with you, it would be better to shoot in the background of the primitive barrenness." ”

"I don't dare to bring a watch, let alone a camera, but this place is full of quiet beauty, and there is harmony in the desolation, if it weren't for these weird and terrifying thunders around it, this small village must be very poetic."

"Yes, I don't see the small bridge and flowing water, but the stone wall is stacked, scattered, simple and generous."

"You two follow closely, don't kiss me and me in public, be careful that countless eyes are looking at you!"

The fat man's words startled my spine, and I reflexively looked around the quiet surroundings, except for the hula sound of the wind scratching.

"Dead fatty, don't mess around with this joke, the good atmosphere has been ruined by you!"

"Isn't it okay if I'm wrong, let's change teams later, you two in a group!"

The fat man gave me a blank look and shot the small stone that he had been holding for a long time into the sky, but he didn't expect that a moment later there was the sound of a dog barking.

"I went, but I was worried that I couldn't find it, and this slingshot actually shocked the dog's kennel! You two follow closely, let's tease the puppy! ”

After the fat man finished speaking, he tiptoed in the direction of the dog's barking.

I took Lin Xiyin's hand, and the two of us looked at each other and smiled, and quickened our pace to chase the fat man.

Turning a corner, I saw the fat man avoiding the corner of the wall and aiming ahead, and that posture was only an assault rifle.

We walked cautiously, and the fat man motioned for us to take shelter in the corner.

I whispered to him what was wrong, and the fat man had a serious expression and beckoned me to come forward.

I stepped forward lightly to take a look, and instantly 10,000 Fei Fei exhaled in my heart, I thought the fat man had discovered something dangerous, but it turned out that the two dogs were snapping!

I gave the fat man a thumbs up: "Fat man, you are really a man of God!" ”

Lin Xiyin saw that there was no danger, so she hurriedly took a look, the fat man shouted that she didn't stop, and the scene of the dog snapping was still seen by Lin Xiyin.

"Dead fat!"

Lin Xiyin's throat was so frightened that the fat man trembled, and even the dog that was snapping was frightened and wanted to separate, but the organs were connected and could not be separated and squeaked.

"I'm innocent, it's all you who disturb people's love!"

Lin Xiyin was about to turn around and leave, but I inadvertently found that the gatehouse and courtyard where the dog snapped were obviously different from other households.

"You wait first, I'll go over and take a look, this courtyard is a little strange."

The dog was even more nervous when he saw me passing, and the thing tried to pull it out but couldn't pull it out, and the larger one dragged the smaller one aside.

The gatehouse is built into the corner of the look, the arc is a little big, it feels like it is not the traditional technique of the north, the mottled door under the gatehouse is pasted with two portraits of the door god, the portrait is not the point, but on these two heavy black doors, compared with the broken wood door of other courtyards, it is simply much better.

It may be that the head of the household left in a hurry, and the door was ajar.

I was about to push the door open when the two dogs barked in unison.

Lin Xiyin couldn't hold his breath anymore and walked to me with his head down, and the fat man gave up his standard assault move when he saw that Xiyin had stepped forward and walked over.

"Call something, call again and cut it for you!" The fat man shouted at the two dogs.

The two dogs were quite human, and after being called by the fat man, they lowered their heads and stopped barking.

"Chen Yuan, this gatehouse looks like a Hui style."

Lin Xiyin's words made me flash in an instant: "Where is Zhu Wen from?" ”

"Anhui Dangshan people."

"Eighty percent of this is the home hall of the villagers of Mushan, and it is called the ancestral hall in the south, let's go in and have a look."

When you open the door, the first thing that catches you is a shadow wall, on which are painted characters with a diameter of about one meter, which resemble a circle, but the surrounding area is round.

"Look at this word like me, round and upright belly."

Lin Xiyin explained: "Yuan, celestial body, round is round, flat circle is round. Yuan, the way of heaven also. The big circle is above, and the sky is also. Dry is the sky, and the sky is round. ”

I pondered for a while and said: "Fat sister, sister Jiao, I am more sure that this is Zhu Wen's royal tomb, Zhu Wen was born in Dangshan, Anhui Province, and the village chief on duty at the entrance of the village is surnamed Tang. Look at this word on behalf of the sky, the emperor called the Son of Heaven, the mausoleum into a mound is naturally round, together is... ”

The fat man glared at his little eyes and said, "Together, it is the mausoleum of the Son of Heaven!" ”

Lin Xiyin also said happily: "Chen Yuan, the royal tomb that has been hidden for more than a thousand years was found by you in a few words?" ”

'Discover details and be good at association' is a sentence that my professor who treated me very well in college specially instructed me, she told me not only to see the essence through the phenomenon, but also to associate from the essence, so I often extrapolate some things in reverse, maybe it is this habit that makes me handy in the field of dragon hunting.

"Let's go, let's go in and take a look, it would be better if we found the genealogy and could find the dynasty information, it didn't hurt if we couldn't find it, there must be a family name explanation in it."

Passing through the overgrown yard, I saw that the door of the hall was mottled and rotten, and although it was locked, the door panel was broken with a big hole, and the sound of a little milk dog 'wow' came from inside.

The fat man gently kicked the door open with his foot, and sure enough, there was a straw kennel under the offering table in the room, and four puppies were clustered together.

The fat man actually brought ham sausages on his body, he opened them and crushed them and sprinkled them next to the puppy's nest, and the little milk dog crawled out to lick and eat them when he smelled the smell.

At this time, the two dogs that were snapping outside the door actually separated, and the two dogs came into the house and relaxed after seeing that the three of us were not malicious.

The shorter yellow dog was obviously the mother dog, and after passing by the fat man, she rubbed the fat man's arm with her body, and then kept licking the four little milk dogs that crawled out.

"This is really human, she showed me favor just now!"

Lin Xiyin also squatted down and grabbed the fat man's ham and crushed it to feed the little milk dog, she smiled softly Yan Yan I really want to pick her up with the little milk dog.

The room was empty except for the offering table, and there must have been a lot of things hanging on the walls before, but now only the traces of the frame were left after they were removed. I found a layer of dust on the offering table, and under the dust there were several pages of yellow paper written with a brush, and when I opened it, it turned out to be a donation record registered by the ancestors of the ancestral hall in a certain year.

The first page is really surnamed Tang,

I kept turning the pages to the bottom and found that the people in this village were all surnamed Tang.

After looking around and finding nothing, I wanted to beckon the two of them out.

At this time, the little milk dog seemed to be familiar with the fat man and Lin Xiyin, and even the male dog squeezed over the sweet crumbs.

"This puppy family is quite pitiful, what do they eat in this deserted village, they are not herbivores, where can they find food?"

The fat man wanted to take the puppy away, but I stopped him.

"We still have big things, it's not too late to hold on later, let's survey the village today, and bring more food tomorrow."

Lin Xiyin is more rational than the fat man, she saw that I was busy, and hurriedly put the puppy back in the kennel, and several puppies flashed cute eyes and were reluctant to let us go.

Lin Xiyin and I went out of the house and stood in the yard waiting for the fat man, who actually pouted his ass and pushed the little milk dog back over and over again.

Lin Xiyin was infected by the desolate and dilapidated scene, and she said leisurely: "The people have moved away, and the village is deserted, but these two dogs still insist, and they all say that the dog's loyalty is really true." ”

The light fell on Lin Xiyin's delicate face through the leaves, and her three-dimensional facial features seemed to have crossed a layer of golden light.

"Xiyin, Wangwang!" I put my palms on my chest and barked at her.

She turned her face and smiled, and she also put her hands on her chest and repeated my movements.

Our eyes are intertwined, and the tenderness of our hearts makes the barren and prosperous.

A few yellowed leaves fell from the sky on Xiyin, and I flicked them off to observe the huge branch above her head.

The branches of the old locust tree are about two people thick, and this one alone covers the entire roof and half of the courtyard.

As August approaches, the temperature in the countryside has dropped significantly, and it is even cooler to stand under the shade of the trees.

I found an iron bell tied to a huge branch,

Seeing me in a daze, Xiyin also followed my gaze to stare at the iron bell the size of a human head,

"Although this iron bell is rusty, it looks thick and simple, not like a modern object."

I nodded: "I need to untie it down, I think I should be able to find information from this iron clock." ”

After the fat man came out, he looked at the fool with an expression: "What do I say, a tattered bell is not like a bell, and an iron bell is not like an iron bell, what is so good!" ”

After he finished speaking, he hit a stone with a slingshot at the iron bell, "Ding. . . The voice echoed,

Suddenly, two dogs in the house burst out and barked at the three of us, which was astonishingly fierce.

"Hey, just now I praised you two for being human, but now you turn your face and don't recognize people!"

The two dogs were aggressive, and the fat man had to pull off the fight.

Seeing this, I looked at the iron bell again, "Is there something strange about this thing?" ”

I beckoned the two out of the yard before the two dogs stopped barking.

When we came to the house, we found something different.

The old locust tree I saw was not encircled, but this old locust tree was sealed by a courtyard wall about two meters high, and the fat man looked for a circle but did not see the door.

He stood under the wall and told me to climb into the ladder, and he squatted cross-legged, and I stepped on his hand with a vertical step and used his strength to climb up the wall.

The fat man motioned for Lin Xiyin to continue, and Lin Xiyin smiled slightly and shook her head, only to see that she actually patted the fat man's shoulder with one hand and jumped onto the wall, with a beautiful posture and light as a fairy.

Lin Xiyin's light body kung fu is incomparable, and it is indeed true.

"Lighter than a cat, I can hold five like you, Xiyin, you can watch my Dapeng take off!"

The fat man ran up with arrows, and he wanted to push on the wall and then borrow his strength to go up, but the wall was probably in disrepair, or the fat man's pedals were too strong, so he only listened to "Boom!" "The wall was trampled on by the fat man and collapsed.

Lin Xiyin and I hurriedly jumped away.

"Grandma, so unscrupulous, I said I would just hit it away, and you two don't have to go up."

At this time, the two dogs in the house heard the movement and "Hula" came out and barked at the three of us.

The fat man was upset by the barking, and took out his slingshot to scare the two dogs away.

The fat man looked at the old locust tree and said, "I'm afraid the three of us won't be able to hold hands, and the two of us in the middle of the tree hole will be fine." ”

Lin Xiyin stepped forward to carefully inspect the trunk and hollow of the tree, and thought about it, and said: "Huaxia has a tradition of planting locust trees as the ancestor tree when the village was founded, but this tree is only about five or six hundred years old, which is inconsistent with your speculation and the age of the bell on it. ”

"I went up to untie the iron bell and studied it, and I decided that this village had existed for more than five or six hundred years."

I was good at climbing trees, and after the inhuman training of Hua Rong Lin Xiyin, my physical strength and agility were far better than before.

In a few clicks, I climbed up the thick bridge-like branches that stretched out to the ancestral hall, and made it effortlessly to the place where the iron bell was.

The bell was tied with wire, and the wire had already grown into the tree, and I tried a few times to untie it, but instead it touched the bell, and the two dogs roared in circles at the top of the tree.

Lin Xiyin saw that I didn't untie it, she also climbed the tree and came to me, only to see her open the buckle and twist the insulating bag in front of her and take out a black dagger, I knew that this was the Bhutanese blade that Captain Jin gave her.

The back of the dagger was jagged, and after a few twists at the junction of the tree and the wire, the matchstick-thick wire was broken.

"No wonder it's a tightrope,"

I can't help but look at Lin Xiyin's dagger.

The top is tinkling, the bottom is doggy, and after Lin Xiyin twisted a few more wires, this iron bell the size of a head and weighing nearly thirty pounds was lifted up by me.

When I went down the tree with the iron bell, the sound of 'jingling' was louder, and the two dogs jumped up and down in a hurry, but they did not dare to approach because of the strength of the fat bullet bow.

Lin Xiyin said: "What does this iron bell seem to have with the two dogs? From the moment we set our sights on the bell, the two dogs never stopped. ”

The fat man answered: "And the reaction is bigger, more fierce than robbing them children, let's see what difference this bell is." ”

The shape of this iron bell is simple, the cover is heavy, although the wind and rain are blown, but only a thin layer of rust is born, which does not affect the texture at all, and I am afraid that it will not be worn out if it is used for hundreds of years.

Lin Xiyin carefully observed the big bell, she said: "Judging from the texture on the surface of the iron bell, this kind of retrograde auspicious pattern process has continued from the Warring States period to the present, but the floating clouds and the moon in the left and right places are incredible, and the general iron bell is mostly the pattern of the rising sun or the dragon and tiger Chengxiang, I guess this should be called 'Yin Bell'!" Do you look like a group of looming armor soldiers? ”

The fat man and I looked at Lin Xiyin's fingers, probably because the bell had been struck too many times in the bell, and the pattern had been blurred, but it did look like a battle-armored soldier.

"This is too terrifying, is this bell to summon Yin soldiers?"

The fat man hurriedly looked back for the two dogs, but found nothing.

I was horrified, Lin Xiyin's words made my head "coax".

"You see the two flying dragons on this solid bell are flying and circling posture, the head is big and the body is extremely long, the movement is exaggerated and the mouth spits fire, the momentum is fierce like a dragon, it should be a mirage dragon that can transform thousands of scenes, according to legend, the mirage dragon is the true embodiment of the eternal existence of the heavenly way, when the world is in chaos and the sky is not over, they will turn into the guardians of the heavenly way."

Lin Xiyin glanced at me after speaking, and continued: "Zhu Wen overthrew the chaotic era at the end of the Tang Dynasty and established the Later Liang, isn't the mirage his symbol, and this vaguely recognizable circle character proves that this is Zhu Wen's burial place." ”

I stood up and looked at the mountain shape not far away, and my mind kept thinking, I have concluded that this is a royal tomb with the yin and yang magic method of the "Shushan Universal Sutra", and now several direct evidence has also made it clear that this tomb is the tomb of the Emperor of the Later Liang, but the yin bell that Lin Xiyin said just now and the reaction of the two dogs made me unable to stretch my heart, could it be that there is something terrible in this tomb? I thought of the tomb of the monarch of the Fat Kingdom in my hometown, could it be that this tomb is also full of evil and weirdness!

While I was thinking, three rapid whistles sounded!

The fat man shouted: "Northwest, they are in danger, hurry up and help." ”
