Seven days later, several people came to the border of Pizhou.

Pizhou belongs to Zhili Prefecture, about two or three hundred miles away from Tongguan Sanshi Mountain, Sanqin Fudi, jurisdiction: Sanshui, Chunhua, Changwu three counties, six miles of households, respectively: Nanyangli, Yongjili, Jiyili, Xianghuali, Antuli, Huaidri. I guess the meaning of "li" is probably the town.

Because they had wolf children, they did not dare to walk during the day, they could only stop and walk at night, and they did not dare to walk on the main road, so they could only walk on the small road in the dark. Because the place they are going to is in the fold belt of the Ordos platform, they left Sanshi Mountain for two days, the terrain began to become high and low, and there was a deep ditch in front of them, and it was not far from the opposite side of the ditch, but if they wanted to go to the opposite side, they had to go far away, if they were lucky, they could go around in the middle of the night, and if they were unlucky, they couldn't go around for two days and two nights.

Reckless Taibai Mountain, 800 miles of Qinchuan, walking on foot, is not for fun. Fortunately, Xiao Laodao had foresight, and before setting off, he used the three plain horses to replace three Guanzhong donkeys. The donkey in this pass is bigger than the plain donkey, strong and healthy, good at walking mountain roads, not only helped a few people carry luggage, but also carried a lot of water and food, no matter how far away, a few people will not go hungry.

Pizhou, Yongjili.

In a small village on the mountain, Xiao Laodao found a family and gave them a few taels of silver, and a few people stayed at that family's house, of course, the little ghost monkey and the wolf child were hiding in the ravine outside the village, if the two of them followed, no one dared to stay with my grandfather.

That night, Xiao Laodao, my grandfather, and the two of them went to the ravine to deliver food to the ghost monkeys and wolf children. On the way, Xiao Laodao discussed with my grandfather, originally, coming here was not on his itinerary, after digging out the Three Stone Mountain, there was a bigger tomb, but the big tomb was too far from here. The big tomb marked on the construction map is in this mountain, quite close, so I will dig it out here by the way, and then go to the place where the big tomb is located.

My grandfather doesn't care, he originally wanted to follow Xiao Laodao to make a windfall and return to his hometown, at this time, he felt that compared with Xiao Laodao, his experience was like that of a child, so it was better to follow their master and apprentice to go back.

Xiao Laodao said this to my grandfather, he wanted my grandfather to rest in the village for a few days, and he wanted to take Xiao Chujiu to Xi'an City, if he hurriedly, it was estimated that it would only take half a month to go back and forth.

My grandfather asked him why he was going, and Xiao Laodao said that the objects taken out from Sanshi Mountain can't be kept with him all the time, and he has to find someone to help, if it weren't for the inconvenience of taking the wolf child, several people could go to Xi'an City together. My grandfather didn't say anything, nodded in agreement.

Early the next morning, Xiao Laodao left with Xiao Chujiu, my grandfather, after living in the village with Xiao Shiyi for a few days, I felt very bored, this afternoon, my grandfather was too idle to do anything, and led Xiao Shiyi to go back and forth on the mountain.

In the hot summer, the mountains were extremely cool, and the two of them walked around and turned into a mountain depression. The valley is surrounded by mountains, and the inside is quite flat, and the whole looks like a basin.

Originally, there was nothing, but in the middle of the mountain depression, there was a small temple made of stone, and in front of the small temple, there was a stone incense burner.

In this barren mountain range, there can be a small temple, both of them are very curious, walk into the mountain depression, take a look at the small temple closely, and see that the incense ash in the incense burner is quite new, as if someone has just come to burn incense, and there seems to be no residual sandalwood smell in the air.

My grandfather turned his head to look around, but there was no one, and he looked at the small temple again, and saw that there was still a plaque hanging at the door of the small temple, and there were three words written on the plaque from right to left: Baixian Temple.

What kind of immortal is Bai Xian? My grandfather didn't understand, but he didn't think about it, and led Xiao Shiyi into the small temple. The small temple was originally not big, but after my grandfather and Xiao Shiyi entered, it became even more cramped and cramped. There is basically nothing in the small temple, and on the small altar, there is only a white stone the size of a millstone.

My grandfather looked at the white stone, and there was nothing unusual, it was an ordinary time, and my grandfather said in his heart, there is no statue of the god in the temple, how can a stone be offered, is it ...... Is this the White Immortal?

At this moment, Xiao Shiyi pulled the corner of my grandfather's clothes, and my grandfather glanced down at him, and saw Xiao Shiyi's expression flustered, as if something terrible had happened.

"What's wrong Eleven?" As soon as my grandfather asked this, he immediately realized that Xiao Shiyi had a pair of yin and yang eyes that could see gods during the day and ghosts at night, so he couldn't tell what he saw.

Xiao Shiyi hurriedly gestured to my grandfather, and after so many days of getting along, my grandfather could barely understand some gestures.

My grandfather asked, "You say there is something wrong with this stone?" ”

Xiao Shiyi nodded, and gestured to my grandfather again, this time the gesture was fast and complicated, my grandfather couldn't understand it, and tried to ask, "You say...... Is this a refined stone? ”

Xiao Shiyi hurriedly waved his hand and gestured to my grandfather again, but my grandfather still couldn't understand it, and guessed again: "You say, this stone ...... Does it have anything to do with the thing that has become a refinement? ”

Xiao Shiyi waved his hand again, and gestured to my grandfather again with a anxious face, Xiao Shiyi was anxious, my grandfather was even more anxious than him, and finally, my grandfather pulled him up, "Forget it, it doesn't matter what it is, it's not early, we should go back." ”

The two of them left the small temple and returned to the village, Xiao Shiyi walked and turned back, my grandfather looked at him, and he didn't care, and soon, the two of them returned to the village.

The master who left my grandfather and them to stay in the house was a little old man, in his early fifties, because the family was poor, and he was not able to marry his mother-in-law at this time, his parents died a few years ago, but he had several sisters, but he was sent out of the house by his parents very early, some were sold, and some were child daughters-in-law, and there was no news at this time, and he was left with only an old bachelor in the family.

In the evening, after dinner, the little old man solemnly told my grandfather and Xiao Shiyi, the little old man said, I see that you go out every night, and I haven't asked you what you are doing, but tonight, you must not go out again.

My grandfather asked him why, the little old man looked at my grandfather, did not explain to my grandfather, and told him again in a matter-of-fact manner, don't go out, otherwise you will get into trouble. My grandfather smiled when he heard this, and said in his heart that if he didn't go to deliver food to the monkey and wolf child at night, the two of them would have to come to the village to make trouble, and then it would be troublesome.

That night, the grandfather looked through the window to the room where the old man slept, it was dark, and it was estimated that the old man was already asleep, my grandfather turned around and walked to the table in the room, picked up the food left for the ghost monkey and the wolf child, pushed the door and was about to go out, but the corner of the clothes was pulled by someone.

My grandfather looked down and saw that it was Xiao Shiyi, and Xiao Shiyi gestured to my grandfather, meaning that he also wanted to see the monkey.

The two of them opened the door and came to the courtyard, and suddenly felt that the moon outside was as cold as water, and when they looked up, a full moon hung high in the air, my grandfather was stunned, and hurriedly pinched his fingers to calculate, and muttered in his heart after calculating: Today is only the tenth day of the first month, why is the moon round? When I looked up, it was indeed round, even rounder and bigger than the fifteenth moon!

My grandfather subconsciously glanced at the room where the little old man was, and said in his heart, this uncle won't let us go out today, does it have anything to do with this full moon?

At this moment, there was a lame long moo in the distance, which sounded like a wolf howling and like a human voice, my grandfather immediately "groaned" in his heart, not good, this is the cry of a wolf child, the wolf is an animal, on the night of the full moon, it will be extremely excited, although the wolf child is not a wolf, but he was raised by a wolf, and over time, he has also developed this habit of mooing the moon. On the other hand, it may also be because they haven't been given food by this time, maybe they are hungry.

The wolf child's long moo fell, followed by countless howls of different lengths from the distance of the mountains, one after another, my grandfather heard it, this is the real wolf howl, and there is more than one.

Xiao Shiyi seemed to be a little frightened when he heard the wolf howling, and hurriedly grabbed the corner of my grandfather's clothes, my grandfather looked down at him, and saw that his face was pale, after all, he was still a child. My grandfather reached out and grabbed his wrist, and the two of them left the old man's house together, and walked towards the hiding place of the ghost monkey and the wolf child.

After arriving at the hiding place of the ghost monkey and the wolf child, my grandfather breathed a sigh of relief, nothing happened, the wolf child shrank behind a rock, the ghost monkey stood next to him, and the female ghost squatted in front of the wolf child, and was stroking the wolf child's head with her hand, as if comforting him.

My grandfather glanced at the wolf child a few more times, and the wolf child was staring at the moon in the sky at this time, trembling all over, as if he was fighting against the wolf nature in his body.

The little ghost monkey was obviously very happy to see my grandfather and Xiao Shiyi coming, and ran to my grandfather's side with a jump, and my grandfather hurriedly handed it a copy of the food, and it picked it up and ate it with relish.

My grandfather walked up to the wolf child again, and before he could hand the food to the wolf child, the female ghost shook her head at my grandfather, and said softly: "There is something wrong today, I can't control my ......."

My grandfather looked up at the moon in the sky and asked, "Does it have anything to do with this strange moon in the sky?" ”

The female ghost didn't answer, glanced at my grandfather, stood up from the wolf child, raised her hand and pointed in a distant direction, "It seems that something is not right there......"

My grandfather glanced into the distance in the direction pointed by the female ghost, and then he was stunned, the female ghost seemed to be pointing to the small temple, and my grandfather asked: "Is today's full moon related to that small temple?" ”

The female ghost replied: "I don't know what a small temple is, I just think that direction is ...... I can't tell, but if it weren't for my children, I wouldn't be able to resist going there. ”

My grandfather didn't quite understand what the female ghost meant, but at this time, he concluded that the problem should lie in the small temple, and it was strange enough for a small temple to appear in a barren mountain and inaccessible place.

My grandfather is not only nosy, but sometimes he has nothing to do, mainly he is young and vigorous, and my curiosity is not as heavy as he is when I am twenty.

The master left Xiao Shiyi, relying on the courage of the artist, and went to the small temple in the mountains alone.

When he just walked into the mountain valley, he was stunned, as if he had changed the world, and when he looked up, the moon in the sky was no longer round, and the light was not so bright, and the strangest thing was that even the position had changed, and the previous full moon was in the middle of the sky, at this time, it was much westerly.

My grandfather feels a little incredible, what the hell is going on? At this moment, a blue light shot out from the mountain depression, straight into the sky, and in an instant, the full moon hung in the middle of the sky again, my grandfather was stunned, is this a dream? The master turned his heart sideways, and at this time, he had to figure this matter out with an iron heart.

Judging from the blue light shot out just now, it is the direction of the small temple, at this time, my grandfather is only a few steps away, I have to figure it out, however, my grandfather is not a reckless person, it must be abnormal for such a strange thing to happen in the small temple, which must be more careful.

The master slowed down, and did not go directly to the small temple, detoured and climbed on a mountain beam next to the mountain depression, and found a good sight on the mountain beam, and a place to hide, the cat went in and looked down into the mountain valley, the location was just right, and the small temple was clearly seen by my grandfather, and it was unobstructed.
