Leng Longling Chapter 12 Shuangmen Cliff
"Master"
Seeing that I had gone berserk, the mouse whispered to me.
I sat down slowly, sinking my anger, because I knew the power of Gu art, time waited for no one, and I was thinking in my heart that I should quickly set off to Lenglongling to find the Gu practitioner to solve the Gu.
I stretched out my left hand and played a game with Qimen Dunjia, wanting to see how much Yang Shou I still had, and after reading it, I frowned.
"Mouse, I still have about seven days of yang life, and from tomorrow, my body will change a lot, the degree and speed of deterioration I can't estimate it now, I also told you about the matter of Leng Longling before, this time I am going to this place to find a way to turn into Gu, this trip is too dangerous, I don't know what strange things will happen, if you don't want to, you can stay and watch the house, I won't blame you."
"Master!"
The mouse said with a little crying and aggrieved.
"What kind of words are you talking about, I am your apprentice, isn't it natural to go with you, your body is getting weaker and weaker, you can ...... without me to take care of you"
Hearing the words of the mouse, I was very moved, and I didn't teach him anything sincerely, without reservation, if he really didn't go, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to get to Leng Longling.
"Master, do you want to call him?"
I pondered for a long time and replied to him
"Da Huang won't call him, this time it's dangerous, one less person is less risky."
In fact, I still have some selfishness, and my brother who has been with Da Huang for so many years is not willing to let him take this risk with me.
"You like this, according to the usual things we bring when we do things, take more of them, in case you need them, after you pack up, let's leave for the airport immediately."
"Good!"
Because the matter was urgent, the mouse hand speed was also fast, and the things were quickly packed, and we rushed to the capital airport.
Sitting in the taxi to the airport, I thought in my heart, although I have a certain understanding of Lenglongling and the approximate direction, but if I was asked to find it myself, I am afraid that I would have died of poison before I found the mountain gate.
Suddenly, I thought of a person, Ye Laosi!
Ye Laosi, born Ye Zhisi, is also an ancestral gentleman at home, but his ancestors have always lived in the mountains, I don't know what the reason is, he only moved to Haidong City two years ago. Older than me, more than ten years older than me, I met a local gentleman two years ago when I was in Xining to exorcise evil spirits. Both of us belong to the same path, so when we first met, we contacted each other more often.
This time I went to Lenglongling in Qinghai Province, he should be more clear, he called him, and after telling me the basic situation here, he decided to pick us up at the airport and take us to Lenglongling as a guide, I was still very moved in my heart.
After arriving at the airport, I bought two tickets to Xining, three and a half hours later we got off the plane at Caojiabao Airport close to Xining City, it was about three o'clock in the afternoon, the airport was not big, and soon walked to the pick-up area.
The figure is very thin, belongs to the skinny kind, very tall, 1.85 meters, he has a round brain, a pointed chin, and Xie Ding, he looks like an upside-down gourd, and his skin is slightly blackened, as if he has been taking drugs for a long time. Wearing a dark blue short-sleeved shirt, obviously whitened by washing, it should have been worn for a long time, black trousers with pieces of yellow dust attached to them, a pair of black leather shoes with one foot, the horizontal leather folds on the upper have worn off.
We quickly walked to his side, because the matter was urgent, and it was not convenient to greet each other, the two looked at each other, he nodded at me, and led us to a taxi on the side of the road, which seemed to be the car he had made an appointment.
Once I got in the car and sat down, I asked him
"Fourth, how far is Lenglongling from here?"
The fourth replied in broken Mandarin
"That place is in the northwest of Haiyan County, this rental is my bag, can send us to the foot of the mountain, after getting off the car, we have to walk more than 30 miles of mountain roads, will go to Shuangmen Cliff, it is basically late at night, I will rest there tonight."
"Twin Door Cliffs?"
"That doesn't sound like a good place!"
The rat blurted out.
Although I know a little about the legend of Lenglongling, when it comes to the specific details, I have no way of knowing, but a mountain village gentleman like Ye Zhisi will be more clear.
We are all gentlemen, and we all make a living by helping people eliminate difficulties and resolve disasters, but due to the different sects of our ancestors, our methods have different branches, just like the relationship between the famous and decent families and cults in the TV series. Even more often than not, people like us who have come out of the main door will despise the methods of those mountain village gentlemen, their methods are not not not easy to use, but too evil and despicable. And the fourth child is so close to Lenglongling, he must know all aspects of this place better than me.
"Well, this Shuangmen Cliff is a village, and there is a stone archway at the entrance of the village, which is the archway. Different from other archways, this kind of archway has only two door openings, is a double number, I am afraid that the whole of China is only this one, a single stone gate is five meters high, three meters wide, the top of the stone gate has the eaves of Chinese architecture, because the two door openings are high on one side, so the eaves share one. At the bottom are three white marble stone piles, almost more than one person high, about one meter wide, and there are several paintings carved on it, which looks very exquisite. In the middle of each stone pile there is a red lacquered wooden stake with a diameter of more than 30 centimeters, and the wooden stake extends upwards to the eaves as the main support of this archway. ”
"It's very common to have this thing in the archway, the ancestors left a lot, Beijing Dashilar, the front door, that guy ......"
Suddenly, Ye Lao raised his eyebrows at the mouse sitting in the co-pilot and shouted!
"Different !!"
The sudden roar surprised me and the mouse, and even the driver was startled, obviously feeling the car shaking from side to side, and in an instant, the deathly silence in the car could be felt, and the atmosphere instantly dropped to the freezing point.
Although the mouse is not from Beijing, but has been living in Beijing, I wonder if the mouse is proudly introducing the big city, touching the self-esteem of the fourth child, after all, several generations have lived in the mountains. However, the next words of the fourth child made me realize that Shuangmen Cliff is not as simple as I imagined.
The fourth lowered his voice and continued.
"You don't know anything, you don't understand anything, you know a !!"
I looked at him and saw that his left hand was clenched into a fist, because the force was too great, and I could even hear the gurgling sound of friction between the joints, and the atmosphere was very solemn. And I also think rats are a bit rude.
"The reason why this stone archway only has two doorways is because people ~ ghosts ~ special ~ ways ~!"
The fourth slowed down, deliberately highlighted the four words, and turned his long thin head towards me as he spoke. This scene, this sound, and this kind of head, it's like watching a horror movie.
"Different paths? What different paths? ”
I asked curiously, and then he twisted his head out of the window, this scene really surprised me a little, although the fourth child has a strange temper, but it is too surprising.
"Above the two doorways of the stone archway, each carved an ancient mythical beast, the left carved is the Teng snake, the appearance is the combination of the turtle and the snake, lifelike, on the wooden beam using the technique of seal carving in the Yin carving, the lines and graphics are concave and chiseled on the wood, meaning to the yin to the extreme, the right carved is the Tianyi God General, a pivotal general in metaphysics, using the technique of yang carving, the shape of the pattern is raised, meaning to the yang to the prosperity. The two patterns are separated in the middle of the left and right doors, which are used to distinguish the purpose of the door. ”
The fourth man paused and continued.
"According to legend, at the end of the Tang Dynasty, this place in Lenglongling was famous for Gu art and Yin Evil Arts, the magicians and gentlemen here are organized and collective, the internal division of labor is very clear, the geographical division is very clear, there are Gu control and Gu altars, there are dojos for refining poisons and evil things, and there are some other places, and this Shuangmen Cliff is a village specially used to make and feed little ghosts."
Hearing this, my heart sank, and even more uncertain about my future. As a gentleman, I clearly know that such a thing as yin and evil will not have a lifespan, whether it is an evil thing or a small ghost, unless this kind of thing is blessed and resolved in a targeted and special way, otherwise the evil energy and evil thoughts of these things will always remain in the world, and with the growth of time, the mana and influence of evil things will become greater and greater, just like self-cultivation.
"I heard from my ancestors that the reason why the structure of the double gate was used as the entrance to the village was because people and ghosts had different paths, and the Tianyi Feng Shui Formation was used around the village for layout, which was a very special formation, and the evil things could not easily enter and exit the village, only the double gate could enter and exit. Coupled with the steep mountain, Shuangmen Cliff has become the only way to enter and exit Lenglongling. ”
Hearing the fourth brother talk about the Tianyi Feng Shui formation, I was secretly shocked in my heart, and just as I began to think about the action plan after the Shuangmen Cliff along this formation, I was interrupted by a cold word from the mouse.
"Hey, you know so well, have you been there?"
There was nothing wrong with him asking that, but with that kind of unbeaten tone and attitude, I felt the urge to smoke him. I hurriedly reminded him to stop talking, what would I do if Ye Laosi ran away angrily.
"Mouse! You shut my mouth! ”
I gave him a hard sentence, and after speaking, I turned my head to look at the fourth child, who glared at the mouse, and then did not continue.
"Kuizi, I know that your situation is very serious, and you also know that this place in Lenglongling is very evil, if we didn't still have a little friendship, I wouldn't have gone to that place if we killed me."
Hearing the fourth child say this, I suddenly felt that he was a hundred unhappy about going to Lenglongling this time.
"I'm going to get worse and worse now, and I don't have time to find any other way, seven days is my lifespan, and I have no choice!"
After hearing what I said, the fourth child nodded helplessly, and didn't say anything. He is a very strange person, he doesn't talk much, he is boring, although his experience is similar to mine, but because of the different regions he has developed, I am a few cuts above him in terms of income and popularity.
I didn't say anything all the way, I don't know if it was the attack of Gu worms or the high level of mental tension, my body felt extremely tired, and the car I was sitting in was very comfortable, so I fell asleep. I don't know how long it took for me to wake up to the inertia of the cab's brakes, and I opened my eyes and looked around, this is a very desolate territory, almost no road is feasible, the front of the car is facing north, I see that it is a big mountain, and I know that I have completed the section of the road that the car can drive.
"When we get to the place, let's get out of the car, and then we have to walk up the mountain, and there are still forty or fifty miles to go."
The fourth child said in that broken Mandarin.
I rubbed my eyes and got out of the car, glanced at my watch, it was about eight o'clock, and it was dark in twilight. My body felt weaker than before I went to bed, and although it was summer, standing in front of the mountain, I felt a chilling wind, and a cool breeze struck, and my whole body was full of goosebumps in an instant.
In the blink of an eye, the mouse had already taken out the two backpacks he had brought from Beijing, rented them out and turned away.
We repaired it on the spot, and then followed the fourth child towards the mountain.
Along the way, due to physical fatigue, the three of us did not communicate very often. There are many trees and grasses in the mountains, and there is no trace of any road, only relying on the leadership and guidance of the fourth child in front of the team. The alternating actions of wading through the grass, hugging the tree, crossing and ditching really lost a lot of my physical strength.
It was already dark, and the bright moon shone white, shining through every crevice in the mountains, and all around was the cooing of owls, undulating, and occasionally bats flapping their wings overhead.
originally thought that he could smoothly reach the Shuangmen Cliff mentioned by the old four, but was interrupted by a scream from the mouse.
