"Don't move here!" Zhang Guozhong waved his hand, signaling Zhang Yicheng to be optimistic about Sun Dapeng, don't do anything to cause trouble, and he took out a bottle of cinnabar, grabbed a handful of it with his hand and sprinkled it on the ground, stepped on it, and threw a handful of cinnabar on the ground and stepped back to the crack of the stone pillar (Qi Fu is a kind of "long worm", good at rushing the body or paralyzing the lower limbs and losing the ability to escape and then attack, scattering cinnabar on the ground and stepping on it, which can play the role of "blocking the earth's yin", which is very effective against livestock and body, but has little effect on evil ghosts. At this moment, Zhang Guozhong has no stakes in his hands, so he can only use this method for the time being), poked off the remaining mud in the crack with a branch, took out a flashlight and shone it in.

Under the flashlight, the shape of the space in the depths of the crack is similar to that of the shuttle used for weaving, the two ends are narrow and the middle is wide, and the "shuttle" has obviously been artificially chiseled around it, as if it is engraved with inscriptions, with only two fingers wide cracks can carve a circle of inscriptions inside the stone pillar, this bizarre process makes Zhang Guozhong have to think of the mysterious skill of "jade" that flourished in the Warring States period, but it is a pity that it is daytime at the moment, and it is difficult to see what the inscription is engraved under the interference of external light.

What puzzled Zhang Guozhong the most was that in the center of this spindle-shaped space, there was a waxy white strip object, about the thickness of an adult's arm and wrist, and in the middle of the strip, there seemed to be a few shiny silver nails, and there was a long * distance between each silver nail, and due to the light problem, it was impossible to see what the white object was.

"Sure enough, there is something strange..."Although I can't see the specific situation inside the stone pillar, but Zhang Guozhong guessed that it is not far from ten, this white strip is likely to be a surprisingly large stumble, if this is the case, then the size of this shackle can really apply for the Guinness Book of World Records, back then Li Cun and Wang Zihao's stumbling, compared to this hanging guy, at best it is a grandchild's, but how can this kind of thing be hung (or nailed by silver nails) in the stone pillar? How did you get in? Looking at the motionless white object inside, Zhang Guozhong had a question mark in his head,

"Dad, what's in there?" Zhang Yicheng saw his father squatting there and changing his posture in the crack with a flashlight, and a wave of curiosity suddenly surged in his heart.

"It's like... It's really that kind of play, but it's motionless, and I don't know if it's alive or dead..."Zhang Guozhong wants to use the branch in his hand to poke it and try it, but he can't reach it, he wants to pick up a longer branch, and he has to sprinkle cinnabar and walk over, which is also troublesome...

At this moment, the copper coins that had been standing on the ground suddenly fell down again, and the cinnabar was blown by an inexplicable breeze on Zhang Guozhong's face. "What does this mean...?" Zhang Guozhong frowned, looking at the situation just now, the thing in the stone seemed to be full of hostility to outsiders, but at this moment, I don't know whether to throw it or relax my vigilance, especially strange is that at the same time, Zhang Yicheng's harrier seems to have relaxed, the feathers that were originally erect have been smoothed down again, the wings are no longer fluttering, and the eyes are slightly closed as if they are going to sleep again.

"Huh? Dad, what are you doing? Slaughter that plaything? Looking at the harrier's emotional changes, Zhang Yicheng was also puzzled.

"I didn't do anything...!" Zhang Guozhong also wondered, it stands to reason that the animals that cultivate immortals are spiritual, and the higher their Taoism, the higher their spirituality, not only can they understand the "Death Text", but some can even speak human words and even understand human reason (similar to ancient mythological stories such as "Liao Zhai" are likely to be artistic descriptions of immortal animals, especially the "White Snake" in the mythological story "The Legend of the White Snake", according to Zhang Guozhong's understanding, it is likely to be the top humble). This kind of thing itself is the highest level of snake cultivation immortals, and if the thing hanging inside is really a scarf, it grows so huge, I am afraid it can be regarded as a "fairy among immortals", and it is not an exaggeration to have the IQ of the changing "copper coin face" expression, most of the actions of this animal are useful, and the change in the expression of the copper coin face at the beginning is likely to be a manifestation of the hostility of this thing to outsiders, but at this moment it dispelled the hostility and blew the cinnabar onto Zhang Guozhong's feet, but he didn't know what he wanted to do.

Pulling the crack in the rock with his hand, he couldn't move it at all, helplessly, Zhang Guozhong retreated to the inside of the "Split Yin Halberd" along the cinnabar seal on the ground, "Dapeng, you said that there are a lot of people in your village who open mountains and blow stones?" Although he was reluctant, he was an apprentice after all, and Zhang Guozhong subconsciously changed his name to this Sun Dapeng.

"That's right!" Sun Dapeng looked at Zhang Guozhong, "Master, you don't want to..." Sun Dapeng pointed to the stone pillar in front of him and gestured with his hand to dig.

"yes, can you find a way to get me some detonators? It's enough to blow that crack open, if you really can't get it, a pickaxe or a crowbar or something..."Zhang Guozhong frowned and looked at the stone pillar, and he was very good in his heart, in the past, he used to cut off his head with a decent guy, but now there is a decent guy, but that thing is in the stone, and if you want to cut the head, you have to find a way to get the stone open first...

"Master..."Sun Dapeng pouted with a sad face, "This stone pillar can't be moved..."

"What's there to move?" Zhang Guozhong frowned, "I also moved just now, aren't you alive and well now?" ”

"You're not groundbreaking!" Sun Dapeng pointed to the col next to him, "To the north of this side, there is a stone pillar, and the soil between these two stone pillars can't be moved. ”

As soon as he said this, Zhang Guozhong's heart was also moved, thinking yes, just now he was thinking about how to get rid of the stone and get rid of the sloppy inside, but he forgot that there are two stone pillars in this mountain, and there seems to be some kind of mysterious relationship between these two stone pillars. "Then you take us to the top of the mountain!" Thinking of this, Zhang Guozhong began to clean up the copper coins on the ground, "That thing seems to have been nailed inside, and it seems to have stopped, I guess it's nothing, don't be afraid, let's go..."

*Yamamoto is not a big mountain, the so-called peak, at best, is a mountain, and there is no exaggerated vegetation on the slopes, standing on the top of the mountain, the surrounding slopes can be seen at a glance.

"It seems that it's really not that simple..."Zhang Guozhong drew a sketch on the ground and roughly compared it with his hands, as expected, the place where the stone pillar was located just now was the Zhengyang position in the mountain. And the north pillar in Sun Dapeng's mouth is in the positive yin position in the mountain, "one is positive yang and one is positive yin...", a strange thought suddenly surged in Zhang Guozhong's heart, the pile of human bones found by the Public Security Bureau two days ago seemed to have been made into coiled keels, and these two stone pillars, are they also two coiled keels...? "Dapeng, do you have any ancient tombs in this mountain?" Thinking of this, Zhang Guozhong turned his head and asked Sun Dapeng.

"Tombs? I haven't heard of it..."Sun Dapeng shook his head, "There are people in the village every day, and I have never heard of someone digging an ancient tomb..."

"I mean, the section between these two stone pillars..."Zhang Guozhong pointed to the hillside not far away, "At the beginning, you said that the person who opened the mountain and had an accident was dug between these two stone pillars, did they dig anything?" ”

"It's... I don't know..."Sun Dapeng shook his head.

"Well, let's go to the pillar on the north side now..."

As the saying goes, Wangshan runs a dead horse, although it looks not far from the top of the mountain, but it takes a little effort to walk, and it takes more than an hour to walk before a few people climb to the place.

The stone pillar on the north side is very different from the one on the south side, the south side is short and thick, and the north side is slender, there is open space around the south side, and the north side is surrounded by slopes, the only thing the two stone pillars are the same, is that there is a crack, although the crack on the north pillar is also sealed by dry soil, but the soil in this crack is not like it is artificially filled, it is all fine soil, and it is not mixed with iron sand and other things at all. But it is extremely hard, and it seems that it cannot be opened without a tool such as a chisel.

"That's it, let's go back and get some tools first..."Zhang Guozhong stood up and patted his clothes, "Dapeng, do you have the tools for opening the mountain?" Hammer crowbar or something? ”

"Yes, yes... But..."Sun Dapeng looked embarrassed, "I have to go to eat at night, it's not appropriate not to go... If we go back to the village now, I'm afraid it's too late..."

"You give me the tools, I'll do it myself..."Zhang Guozhong looked at this newly recruited baby apprentice and had no temper, after all, he was thin-skinned, but he was not as good as his master Ma Zhenren.

"Master, why don't we come back tomorrow, I'm going to eat, please let you come alone, it's not appropriate..."

It was already afternoon when he returned to Sun Dapeng's house, and after Zhang Guozhong found out the tools for opening the mountain, Sun Dapeng went to the banquet full of contradictions, and when Zhang Guozhong drank saliva and wanted to go out with the tools, he found that his baby apprentice was too anxious, and he didn't explain where the chain head was, and he didn't know whether this person had always not locked the door, or did forget to explain. I searched in the house with Zhang Yicheng for more than half an hour, but I didn't find anything like a lock...

"This Ma Daha..."Zhang Guozhong glanced into the house, although there was nothing valuable, but it was not very appropriate to leave like this, helplessly, he could only temporarily let Zhang Yicheng stay and watch the house, "Yicheng, you are here to show him the house, I will go by myself..."
