Immediately after, Xiao Laodao actually sneered, and said to my grandfather in a low voice: "Those beasts haven't left, that 'Moon Reflecting Stone' should still be in the small temple!" ”
When my grandfather heard this, he glanced at Xiao Laodao in puzzlement, but Xiao Laodao didn't explain to my grandfather, "If my brother doesn't believe it, let's follow Eleven and go forward, and we'll know at a glance." ”
The current tomb must be an illusion, but I don't know what else is ahead, Xiao Laodao beckoned Xiao Shiyi to continue walking.
After walking a short distance, I came to the end of the tomb, and there was a tomb in front of me, and the tomb was also made of stones, and the two heavy stone doors were tightly closed. ”
My grandfather nodded, "Transferring flowers and trees", he heard my ancestor say, the spiritual objects of cultivation can confuse people's minds and make people hallucinate, but in many illusions, the things or scenery that appear are real, but these things or scenery are not around the person concerned, they are phantoms that have been appropriated by those spiritual objects with mana, this is called transferring flowers and trees.
There is also a situation where the spiritual beings who practice have been to those places, and the memories of those places are left in their minds, and they use their mana (which can also be said to be their minds) to forcibly add the things or scenes in their memories into the minds of the people concerned, so that the people concerned have an illusion of being there. It is said that people who are high in the line will also move flowers and trees, and many of the scenes seen by the caster come from the caster, who use their own mana or mind to interfere with the normal judgment of the caster.
Xiao Shiyi's yin and yang eyes seemed to be undisturbed, he couldn't see the tomb in front of him, and he couldn't see the stone gate, he actually passed through the stone gate, my grandfather and Xiao Laodao glanced at each other again, Xiao Laodao nodded at my grandfather, and the two of them walked to the stone gate together, turned their hearts sideways, and drilled down towards the stone gate.
In an instant, the scenery in front of me changed, the tomb road was gone, the tomb was gone, and it was replaced by a mountain depression, and it was the mountain depression where the small temple was located.
Xiao Laodao laughed loudly, "The carving insect skills, how can you hide a pair of discerning eyes from the poor road!" ”
When my grandfather heard this, he couldn't help but glance at him, and said in his heart, this is not your credit.
Xiao Laodao asked my grandfather, "But the small temple in front?" ”
My grandfather nodded, and Xiao Laodao suddenly looked very excited, "Let's go, brother, the Moon Reflecting Stone should still be in the small temple!" ”
A few people soon came to the small temple, and the small temple was still the same dilapidated appearance that my grandfather had seen before, but when my grandfather looked into the small temple, his heart suddenly became cold.
Xiao Laodao also showed a stunned face, turned his head and asked my grandfather, "Brother, where are the stones?" ”
Seeing that the altar in the temple was empty, and the white stone was gone, my grandfather shook his head, "It seems that those beasts have really left, and the stone should be taken away by them." ”
Xiao Laodao suddenly looked disappointed, and muttered, "Since they have already left, why do they still want to create these illusions?" ”
The master ignored Xiao Laodao's words, walked to the incense burner and looked at it, and turned back to greet Xiao Laodao, "Brother Xiao, come and take a look at this incense burner, the white shadow of the inner dan before first shot on this incense burner, and then shot into the temple, is this incense burner also extraordinary?" ”
Xiao Laodao heard my grandfather say this, straightened his disappointed face, walked to the incense burner and looked at it, and finally, Xiao Laodao shook his head and said dejectedly: "It's just an ordinary incense burner, nothing rare, it's found in any temple." As he spoke, Xiao Laodao reached out and picked up a small handful of incense ashes from the incense burner, put it under his nose and smelled it, and said to himself: "It's strange, these incense ashes should have just been burned." ”
My grandfather said, "The last time I came here with Eleven, it seems that someone had just put on incense. ”
Xiao Laodao glanced at the master and said, "These beasts, is it possible that there are still people worshipping them?" ”
As soon as Xiao Laodao's voice fell, a bird flew up from the roof of the small temple, this bird could be as big as a pigeon, and it was red, and my grandfather was stunned when he saw it, and hurriedly said: "I saw this bird that night." As soon as the master finished speaking, the red bird rushed into the sky and disappeared.
At this time, Xiao Shiyi's clapping sound came from behind the two of them, and my grandfather and Xiao Laodao looked at him at the same time. Xiao Shiyi raised his hand and pointed to the sky, and gestured to the two people, my grandfather couldn't understand it, Xiao Laodao said: "Eleven said, the bird just now is a cultivating cardinal. ”
Hearing Xiao Laodao say this, my grandfather was stunned, recalling the situation that night, the grandfather couldn't help but say, "Could it be that this cardinal is the dwarf of that night?" ”
Xiao Laodao said: "They definitely haven't left yet, they just hid the Moon Reflecting Stone somewhere else." Saying that, Xiao Laodao looked around, looked at the entire mountain valley, and said: "The terrain here gathers aura and is grounded, like a cornucopia, a good place to practice, I'm afraid that those few things are reluctant to come here, just leave temporarily, they make these tricks, they just don't want people to come here again!" ”
My grandfather heard Xiao Laodao say this, and looked at the small temple, "Then let's demolish the temple for them." ”
Xiao Laodao hurriedly said: "Brother can't, there is a way that a strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, we still have something to do, not to get along with these beasts, for the sake of safety, it is best not to provoke them again, let's go, let's go back." ”
My grandfather is a little unwilling, a few beasts killed so many people, is it so easy to let them go? The master secretly made up his mind that after helping Xiao Laodao dig up the tombs, he would come back to clean them up.
Several people returned in vain, and by the time they returned to the village, it was already dark.
After dinner, Xiao Laodao took out the tomb structure map and put it under the oil lamp to look at it carefully, as if he was studying.
When my grandfather saw it, he walked over and sat down, looked at the sketch, and asked Xiao Laodao: "Brother Xiao, how can there be such a sketch in the hands of the surnamed Zhu?" ”
Xiao Laodao raised his head and glanced at my grandfather, and said, "This is the treasure that the wolf child's father got, otherwise, how could the female ghost take it out of the family surnamed Zhu." ”
When my grandfather heard this, he was immediately relieved, but he followed up and asked: "Could this ancient tomb on the picture have been taken by the surnamed Zhu, otherwise where did his family property come from?" ”
Xiao Laodao nodded, "There is such a possibility, but, judging from the map, this tomb is not so easy to dig, even if you have a sketch in your hand, you may not be able to find the real tomb, otherwise, who would be willing to sell the sketch?" ”
My grandfather heard Xiao Laodao say this, it seems that there is a bit of truth, you can only get a few dollars by selling the sketch, and if you find the tomb according to the map, then you will really make a fortune.
Xiao Laodao said to my grandfather again: "You rest first, I'll watch for a while, let's rest in the village for a few days, and then set off." ”
Three days later, the group took the donkey, took all the luggage, and headed for the ancient tomb deep in the mountains.
After walking in the mountains for a few hours, a deep ditch in the north-south direction appeared in front of them, at this time, the soil quality under everyone's feet also changed, it was no longer a rocky land, it became a loess earth, and the distance also became a mound-like soil mountain, cold, as if it had reached the loess plateau, the large and small mounds did not grow anything, bare, and full of desolation.
Xiao Laodao walked to the front of the deep ditch, looked down, it was dark, it was bottomless, he took out the sketch and looked at it, nodded, and then beckoned my grandfather and a few of them, the ancient tomb is in the deep ditch, find a place to go down.
It's easy to say, but it's hard to go down, this deep ditch is like a giant cut out with a knife and axe, straight and steep, and in the end there is no way, a few people can only follow the edge of the deep ditch, walking north, hoping to get to the end of the ditch, maybe there is a way to go down at the end.
At this time, it was already noon, and several people walked from noon to the dark sky, and the deep ditch still did not end, but the slope of the mountain was significantly lighter.
Further on, the terrain is actually getting higher and higher, increasing in the form of a slope, however, the deep ditch is getting shallower and shallower, and several people go from the dark to the middle of the night, at this time, the bottom of the ditch is basically level with the ground, although there are still dirt mountains around, but they have become piles of small dirt bags, and there is no insurmountable height.
Finally came to the end of the deep ditch, and this trip over, not in vain, several people were also tired at this time, stopped to find a place to eat and rest.
I originally planned to rest on the spot for a night, and then go down to the deep ditch early tomorrow morning to hurry, who would have thought, I don't know where a few wolf howls came, a few people heard it, will there be wolves in such a desolate place?
A few people were nothing, but after the wolf howl came, the wolf child actually followed the howl, he screamed and frightened the three donkeys, several donkeys were not tethered, mainly there was no place to tie, the ground was all bare yellow earth, not even a tree, one of the donkeys spread his hooves and jumped into the ditch, ran along the ditch, the other two donkeys looked at it, and then jumped into the ditch, all ran lifelessly.
My grandfather and a few of them looked at it, and they didn't rest, most of the luggage was still on the back of the donkey, so let's keep going, anyway, sooner or later they would have to go to the deep ditch, and a few people jumped into the deep ditch, and while hurrying, they chased the frightened donkey in front.
The ditch was dark and dark, and the sight was much worse than that above the ditch, but the ground was very flat, almost flat, and it was many times better than the high and low soil bags above the ditch.
A few people chased after the dark for an hour, and finally caught up with the donkey, at this time the three donkeys were crowded together, cowering, obviously tired of running, or maybe because it was too dark in the ditch, they didn't dare to run crazy anymore.
However, after such a toss, several people were not as sleepy as they were just now, and they all came to their senses again. Xiao Laodao took out two torches from the luggage on the donkey's back, lit the torches and took a picture around, and saw that the ditch was only two or three zhang wide, and the ground was flat, but both sides were full of loess cliffs, which were like knives and unattainable.
After taking a few breaths, Xiao Laodao beckoned everyone, since he has walked so far at the bottom of the ditch, let's continue walking, the bottom of the ditch is flat, and it is easier to walk than the high and low soil slopes above, at most one more hour, and you will reach the place where the ancient tomb is.
When a few people heard this, they took the donkey and continued to walk. An hour later, several people came to the place, before they were above the ditch, and now they were under the ditch.
Walking at the bottom of the ditch is not able to see the surrounding terrain, however, Xiao Laodao has the ability to measure the distance on foot, they used to walk along the ditch to the north, and after going down to the ditch, they turned around and walked back to the south. When Xiao Laodao walked north, he had already begun to measure the distance on foot, and after going down to the ditch, there was no reference around, so Xiao Laodao concluded that they had arrived at the place by virtue of the distance he had measured on his previous steps.
However, after a few people took a look at the surroundings with a fire, they were all a little dumbfounded, there were still unclimbable cliffs on both sides, and the yellow land under their feet was still bright, no different from other places, there were no tombs at all.
