Zhong Tianhai's operation method seems to be a magnet-like thing, sucking two silver needles on my shoulders and moving in my arms. In this way, the place where the veins are sealed also moves with the silver needle.

This will gradually channel the blood from my body into my arms.

Sure enough, my arm, which was originally bloodless, gradually began to recover. In the end, Zhong Tianhai moved the dark green stone to the palm of his hand, and with a little force, I only felt that my palm was numb. On the stone were two silver needles that had been dyed blood-red.

Zhong Tianhai let out a sigh of relief and patted me on the shoulder: "Okay, your mission is over." Waiting for me here. ”

As he spoke, Zhong Tianhai put the three cups of blood on Zhong Xiaofeng's bed, and he pushed the bed to the cave room we had entered.

It is estimated that Zhong Tianhai is ready to help Zhong Xiaofeng with treatment, and Zhong Xiaofeng's situation is far more complicated than mine. Whether he can be saved successfully is still unknown.

Now there were only four of us left, except for the fat man, who was still asleep, and the three of us looked at each other, and we all let out a long breath.

Since I found the third uncle's robe in this area, I feel that Zhong Tianhai should have news of the third uncle. I just never had a chance to ask him.

At first, I was hostile to him, and he couldn't tell me if I asked. Later, the relationship eased, and he was wholeheartedly treating Zhong Xiaofeng, and I didn't have time to ask.

So no matter whether Zhong Tianhai asked me to wait for him here or not, I wouldn't leave right away.

And I and Ma Yan, Ouyang or they can be regarded as reunions, and there are too many things to say.

I looked at them and asked, "Old Ma, how did you find them?" ”

Ma Jian smiled bitterly: "I really let you say it." Ouyang may tell us to camp on the lake beach, and I blame me, and I have to go to a high place on my own initiative. When they came back, they really didn't find us on the beach. ”

I asked, "That's not right, there are iron pillars, we are not far from the shore of the lake, how can they not find us?" ”

Ouyang Or waved his hand and said, "Master doesn't know. On the shore of the lake, it is washed by the lake every day, which will isolate some of the smell. Although you are not far away, there is no way for the iron pillar to smell your whereabouts. ”

Ma Jian waved his hand: "You have a hard time talking, let me say it." ”

I smiled, in fact, Ouyang may have been with us and kept communicating. He has spoken as much as possible to get rid of the previous taste of too strong literary language, and now except for a few words, most of them are almost the same as what we say.

But as long as he speaks, it is easy to hear that he is different from us.

Ma Tan took over and said, "Actually, there is another way to get here. Ouyang or Tiezhu had also found another way to get here. But when he came back to look for us and disappeared, he continued to look for us around. When we went down to the beach, they were leaving. Later, after you got on the bridge, they came back. It just so happened that we were only half an hour apart. Each other missed each other. ”

I asked, "Then why don't you go up to the bridge and follow us right away?"

”

Ma Jian waved his hand: "No." Do you know what that stone bridge says? Originally, I also wanted Ouyang to take me to the bridge to chase you. But he said that it was a yin bridge, and that there were up to two living people crossing every night, and if there were any more, someone would have an accident. ”

"That stone bridge is a yin bridge?" I was amazed.

No wonder on that bridge, I see images of people who have died.

When Ma Jian couldn't express clearly, Ouyang might occasionally interject two sentences to explain to me the origin and function of this Yin Bridge.

This yin bridge was born from underwater.

Of course, when this stone bridge was built at that time, it would definitely not be built as a yin bridge. I don't know which dynasty built the stone bridge, but it's been at least a few hundred years since now.

The purpose of why such a bridge was built at that time is unknown. Because there is only one stagnant lake, and there is no river running through it. Most likely, it was for military purposes. Because there were many wars in ancient times, this Xiaozhou Mountain is steep and may be a military fortress. The bridge, which spans the backwater lake, will allow for easy advance and retreat, and will play an extremely important role in the supply of food, grass and provisions.

Ouyang may infer that when the bridge was built, something must have happened, and it should have been driven into a pile.

I'm really no stranger to driving piles. Of course, I have heard most of this knowledge from the third uncle, and the matter of driving piles is no exception.

The so-called piling is a mysterious architectural technique in ancient China, that is, before the construction project starts, people are buried alive in the construction site, the purpose of which is to ensure the smooth operation of the project. This kind of magic is recorded in the "Book of Luban", which records a large number of square arts. Lu Ban believes that when people start construction in a place, it will destroy the feng shui of the place, and it will also anger the ghosts and gods in the place, so that accidents often occur during the construction period, and the living people are buried on the construction site, which is equivalent to the sacrifice of ghosts and gods, similar to the custom of using living people to sacrifice to the river god and mountain god, hoping to reduce the accidents in the construction. The raw piles that were buried alive became the patron saint of the building, maintaining the stability of the building.

Ouyang may say that this bridge must have been staked. However, it is said that for a building, only one raw pile can be driven. But from his observations, I don't know what the purpose of this bridge is, and there is definitely more than one raw pile driven. Each of its piers should have been driven into a raw pile, which led to all kinds of unevenness in the bridge.

Speaking of which, it sounds scary to us as well. The bridge is also hundreds of meters long, and there are no less than a dozen piers, so there are more than a dozen people buried alive on the bridge.

In this way, it is not difficult to explain the accidents that Fat Dahai and I encountered on the bridge. With such a yin bridge, it is not easy for us to live on.

Saying that, I also told Ma Tan and Ouyang about the strange things I encountered when I crossed the bridge with Fat Dahai.

Ma Jian nodded: "This is all expected. Ouyang or he also said that when the bridge was first built, it was not a living person. ”

"Not a walking man? Didn't you say that it was used for military purposes? And what is this bridge......" I asked.

"Those who walk soldiers, those who walk in the shadows. He suspected that the military purpose of the bridge was that there might be a monk in the army who knew how to do magic, or a Taoist priest. They know how to lure the Yin soldiers into battle. So this bridge was built to transport the Yin soldiers across the water. ”
