Chapter IV
"So to speak!" My grandfather's expression was a little serious, not like a joke, and he paused and continued: "Human life is at stake, this time a descendant of our Liujia Village strayed into Bagong Mountain and encountered unexpected dangers, this kind of strange thing happened not only once in Bagong Mountain, I guess it is very likely to be related to the hiding place where Liu An built that artifact back then." Therefore, I first asked Brother Wang to go out of the mountain to help me. ”
Wang Yuanshan stroked his white beard, gently exhaled a breath of white smoke, and asked lightly: "Your one-handed corpse bell is presumably also related to the "Nine Volumes of Reincarnation" obtained by Liu An, the ancestor of your Liu family!" ”
My grandfather did not speak, neither admitting nor denying it.
The feelings between Wang Yuanshan and my grandfather are not something that can be expressed in words, in the early years, they were looking for dragon points together, which can be described as life and death!
Out of trust and support for my grandfather, I finally decided to advance and retreat with my grandfather this time.
Wang Yuanshan is old, and for him, he still has the opportunity to show his skill of touching the golden captain again in this life, and he can be regarded as a death without regrets.
Just do it, and on the same day, my grandfather made careful preparations for this trip to Bagong Mountain.
After returning to the village together to contact Liu Fangping, the three of them went their separate ways to prepare the materials and equipment needed for this expedition.
However, because some of those expedition equipment are not commonly used, such as the King Kong umbrella.
The King Kong umbrella is a necessity for the inverted bucket.
Legend is the greatest invention of the mountain movers among the four major sects of inverted buckets.
This kind of vajra umbrella is mainly used to prevent the collapse of the tomb and some hidden weapons, which is a portable tool that concentrates defense and attack multi-functional, because the umbrella blades are forged from stainless steel, and can also be folded, so it is called the vajra umbrella.
And the technical drawings of making this kind of diamond umbrella have been lost in the Republic of China period, fortunately this kind of diamond umbrella Wang Yuanshan has two in his own home, he did a gold school captain in his early years, there have been many times of life and death moments, it is because of the protection of the diamond umbrella, it can be regarded as an escape.
In addition, tools such as Luoyang shovels, corpse ropes, black donkey hooves and other tools Liu Fangping has at home, and he is doing this business.
When he officially set off, most of the heavyweight duffel bags were handed over to Liu Fangping, and he didn't have any complaints, after all, in addition to my grandfather and Wang Yuanshan, there were only me and the fat man, two sixteen and a half years old, who couldn't lift their hands and shoulders.
Liu Fangping is eager to save people! We also did our best along the way, and when we were bored, we would hum a little song to encourage us to move forward.
Bagong Mountain is located on the bank of the Huai River, a section of the Huaishui, which is also an ancient battlefield, and the battle of the Huaishui in the Eastern Jin Dynasty took place in this area.
On the morning of the third day, we set off from Liu Fangping's house after getting ready, and in less than half an hour, we came to the foot of the Bagong Mountain in front of the door.
We followed the general direction pointed by Liu Fangping, walked through the deep mountains and jungles, climbed over one mountain after another, and finally walked to the bottom of the ravine where Liu Fangliang had an accident in the depths of Bagong Mountain at dusk.
The jungle road on this day was miserable, and the smell of sweat on my body was unstoppable.
The fat man and I were both young at the time, and when we saw a clear stream of air at the bottom of the ravine, we put down our luggage and rushed into the stream.
We plunged headlong into the stream, and as for Liu Fangping, my grandfather, and Wang Yuanshan, the three of them began to prepare to set up camp to cook and make a fire.
Lying in the clear water, the tiredness of the day was relieved, and while I was enjoying this rare leisure time, I only saw a bubble on the water in front of me, and the fat man came out of the water, ignored me, and ran to the shore in a panic.
I smiled and said, "Chubby? What kind of madness do you have? ”
"His uncle, there are water snakes in this stream. It's not that you don't know, fat man, I'm not afraid of being bitten by snakes! ”
I looked in the water in the direction pointed by the fat man, and sure enough, I saw a snake with a red circle pattern about half a meter long coming out of the water, swimming to a piece of bluestone, and constantly spitting snake letters at the fat man on the shore.
"Chubby, it seems that the little snake probably wants to talk to you, come over quickly......"
I half-jokingly teased the fat man for not paying attention to the expression on Liu Fangping's face, I didn't expect him to be more frightened than the fat man, and after seeing the snake with the red circle pattern, his face changed on the spot.
My grandfather also felt strange when he stared at the snake on the water, and muttered to himself, "Hmm! Red-tailed cobra? Not like! Could it be ......?"
At this moment, I saw Liu Fangping come back to his senses, and casually picked up a stone the size of a bowl and smashed it at the snake with the red circle pattern.
The strange snake with the red circle pattern couldn't dodge and was smashed squarely.
Wang Yuanshan, who was on the side, had already lit a fire at this time, saw Liu Fangping's abnormal behavior, looked at the snake again, and asked thoughtfully, "Have you ever seen that kind of snake?" ”
Liu Fangping was shocked, as if the red-circled snake had brought bad memories to him, and he sighed and said, "This snake is exactly the same as the one I saw in the mausoleum I dug up on the ravine. That mausoleum was more like a huge cave, densely packed with these things......"
Turning his head, he looked at my grandfather and said, "Old Liu, shall we go directly into that ravine to find the entrance to the mausoleum, or should we first find a place to rest at the bottom of the ravine outside for a night?" According to my idea, it is better to deal with it all night under the ravine first, and then talk about it tomorrow when it is white! Let's be careful before entering that mausoleum, and make more plans. ”
Liu Fangping's words were exactly what my grandfather meant.
"Okay! As you say, we'll spend the night by the brook below the ravine. Hearing that my grandfather agreed with his idea, Wang Yuanshan hurriedly beckoned me and the fat boy to his side and began to be responsible for setting up a sheepskin tent, going to pick up some dry firewood nearby and start preparing for the night.
The so-called sheepskin tent is to use sun-dried sheepskin as a tarpaulin, and then find some long logs to erect a shelf, and cover it on top to finish.
At that time, this kind of sheepskin tent was sturdy and durable, and it was one of the necessary materials for the captain to go out.
The night was getting deeper, and it was already raining outside.
After eating and tidying up, my grandfather told me and the fat man not to run around at night, so we lay down on the mats and prepared to sleep.
