When Ma Jian saw me, he also wanted to walk towards me, but he just moved half a step, and his body shook and he almost fell. It looked like he didn't listen to his legs.

I hurriedly helped Liang Yue up and asked the old stall head: "Stall, what's the matter with them?" Isn't it saved? Why is the leg still bad? ”

The old stall said: "They have been controlled for a long time, and the body's essence and blood and body tendons need time to recover, rest assured, the activity can recover in three or five minutes." ”

Liang Yue frowned and asked me, "Li Yang, what the hell is going on?" Where is this? ”

Ma Tan was also puzzled, and recalled: "Didn't we enter Nanliu Village? Then it got foggy...... Later......"

I waved my hand: "Don't ask so much questions first, seize the time to move your body." I'll tell you slowly, let me ask you, after the fog lifted, did you have any communication with my third uncle? ”

Liang Yue thought for a while and said: "At that time, I followed Lao Ma, and I heard your third uncle shouting, let us all follow, don't get separated." But the fog is too big, and I can't see your third uncle after running for a while, so I can only follow closely behind the old horse. Later, the old horse stopped......"

Ma Jian continued: "Yes, I stopped because the compass in my hand failed, and the needle rotated rapidly, but it couldn't stop. ”

I nodded: "In that case, the compass is simply unreliable." And then ......"

"Later, Lao Ma and I looked for your third uncle again, and we couldn't see him. At this point, I felt dizzy, as if I saw a group of people in a neat line passing in front of me, and I followed before I knew it, and then I couldn't remember what happened......"

Lao Ma also nodded and said that it was similar to Liang Yue's situation. These are basically the same as I expected, it seems that the third uncle should be the same as Lao Ma and them at that time, but maybe the third uncle himself has some Taoism, and the soul attraction banner failed to completely confuse the third uncle, so he will be different from Lao Ma's situation.

Finding that my emotions were a little wrong, Ma Jian asked, "It seems that you saved me and Liang Yue, why is your third uncle not here?" ”

The old stall pointed to the cliff: "He, he jumped off the cliff with him." ”

Ma Jian and Liang Yue were both surprised and stared at me. I'm trying to keep my emotions in check, it's not the time to be sad, and the jury is still out on how things will end. I picked the main part and briefly told Liang Yue and Ma Jian what happened.

After listening to me, Ma Jian shook his head like a rattle, and waved his hand again and again: "Li Yang, don't be funny." If you want to say that others are in danger, I believe it. Your third uncle? Jumped from here? I don't even believe it. That stinky old man, goblin, and the fog came together, and it is estimated that he will know what is going on, and he must have prepared for it a long time ago. We're both fine, he's going to be okay? I'll put it here, and if something happens to him, I'll write it upside down. ”

Liang Yue also said: "I also believe in Master Dongbin, he is so high, he will be fine." ”

My heart was completely dead, but when I heard them both speak, hope rose again.

The old stall pouted and said, "I really don't cry when I don't see the coffin, this."

Well, seeing is believing, in order to make you die, I will take you down to pick up bones. Whether he is dead or alive will be known below. ”

The old stall walked ahead with the lantern and walked down an inconspicuous fork in the road beside the platform.

Ma Jian walked on the path, and whispered to me to look at the road, and I found that the grass on the small fork in the road was crooked. Ma Jian said: "See? The grass had been trampled off, but it hadn't died, apparently it had just been stepped on. If your third uncle really went to the top of this cliff, he must have gone down from here. This old miscellaneous hair, so scaring us, he looks good when we meet him. ”

I am happy in my heart, so the third uncle really has a great chance of living.

Unexpectedly, the old stall turned his head and said: "The flag bearer also left from here, this grass, he should have stepped on it." Your third uncle...... It's still more than lucky. ”

The old stall really didn't like what he said, and the little hope I had just ignited was poured down by him with a basin of cold water.

But he is our savior, and I don't dare to ask what he says.

Liang Yue didn't care about that, and after listening to the old stall head, he sneered at each other: "I said uncle, can't you say something auspicious?" Why don't you hear a good word from your mouth? ”

The old stall head snorted: "The old stall head, I, just did this depressing errand, and what I said was also depressing." This is called good medicine and bitter mouth, it is easy to say auspicious words, and when the time comes, don't be happy and sad. ”

I know that if I compare with this old stall, I might say something nasty. He is also straight-mouthed, has his own judgment, and says whatever comes to mind.

I motioned to Liang Yue not to say more, and followed the old stall all the way from the top of the cliff to the valley.

The trail down the hill is steep, with a 90-degree slope in some places. Fortunately, there is a lot of moonlight at this time, otherwise we would not be able to move an inch only by relying on the lighting of lanterns.

And the old stall is also very familiar with the path, and there are many forks in the middle of the path, and the old stall makes a judgment without thinking. This greatly shortened the time it took us to get to the bottom of the cliff.

It took us more than an hour to get from the top of the cliff to the bottom of the cliff.

The old stall looked up at the sky and said, "There are still less than two hours before dawn, and the front passes through the woods, which is the bottom of the cliff burial." Supposedly, I had to come three days after the burial to pick the bones. Today I'm going to make an exception and go first. If your third uncle is really inside, I will be able to find him soon. I also have a little responsibility for this, and I will give you an explanation whether he is dead or alive when the time comes. ”

I hurriedly said, "Master Tan, let's go in with you." ”

The old stall head said righteously: "No." The place of cliff burial is the forbidden land of Nanliu Village, and it is already taboo for me to bring you here. You can't go there, it's a place where corpses accumulate twice a year, yin qi is poured out, the yin wind roars all year round, and there are many mountain beasts and insects, I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of you if you go in. You wait here for me, and in less than an hour I'll be back. ”

As he spoke, the old stall asked for the two bright flags in my hand, carried his bone-seeking lamp, and strode forward

In the woods, after a while, the voice of him reciting the mantra came from afar: "Mountains and rocks, water and soil, looking for corpses and picking bones, dust to dust, soil to earth, Yin people to be buried, Yang people to find ancestors." The mountain spirit returns to the cave, and the worm enters the soil ......"

It turned out that there was still a long time behind his mantra, and he must have been afraid that I wouldn't be able to remember it, so he asked me to memorize the previous paragraph.

When he reached the back, the voice of the old stall gradually weakened, until he could no longer hear it.

I know that the old stall's words are not alarmist, at the bottom of the cliff, a large number of corpses jump from the top of the cliff every year, it is a pure place for corpses, and it is also a place where mountain dogs gnaw on the bones. Although there are old stalls to pick bones and clean up, this kind of place is indeed not suitable for ordinary people to stay for a long time.
