In the middle of the night, a few of us finally arrived in Benxi and stayed in a local hotel. Plan to catch an early train to Benxi City tomorrow morning. From there, depart to Coffin Hill.

After resting for the night, the next morning I went all the way to the small city, bought a ticket at the bus station, and went to Coffin Mountain. Benxi, the most famous is the Benxi Water Cave, if you don't have a task this time, it's not bad to play, but now it's really not in the mood to race against time.

The location of the coffin mountain is opposite to the water cave, belonging to the north and south directions, this season is the off-season for tourism, and there are no people at all. Coffin Mountain belongs to a branch mountain range of Benxi Guanmen Mountain, and we have to pass through Guanmen Mountain. The whole mountain has now become a forest park, and a few of us bought tickets and walked through the gate.

The ticket sellers looked at us wrongly, our five big men really didn't look like tourists, Xie Ling's bald head, Xie Luo's white hair, Xiong Dahai's burly, and Li's blind obscenity, it was really hard to say.

On a cold day, there was not even a figure in the park, and some staff said that they could provide a battery car to pull us in. Xie Luo refused, and a few of us strode into the room. After entering the mountain, no longer take the main road, go around to a mountain, and go up the trail.

Xie Luo once went to Coffin Mountain, he was familiar with the way, and took us over the mountains and mountains.

After walking for more than an hour, the road was sparsely populated, the air was clear, I really couldn't walk, I sat on the ground and gasped, only Venus appeared in front of me.

The most important thing is that I felt a pain in my stomach, they all stopped and waited for me, Li Blind is a smoker, but he doesn't dare to smoke in such a mountain, the weather is dry, and it will be a big fire if he really wants to catch fire.

I touched my belly, snorted, and hurriedly unzipped it and lifted my clothes to see. On my belly, a not-so-obvious bump appeared, which was hard to the touch of my hand. Xie Ling squatted down to take a closer look, with a serious expression, "The demon has awakened, and the time to break the abdomen may be advanced." ”

I didn't dare to rest anymore, I don't know if it was a psychological effect, I felt that there was indeed a foreign body in my stomach, this feeling was really bad, and the mood that was originally good was darkened all of a sudden.

We walked for more than an hour, and Xie Luo pointed to the mountain in front of us and said, "That's the Coffin Mountain." ”

I looked at it from afar, the coffin mountain, as its name suggests, from a high point it does look like a huge irregular coffin, one big and the other small. It was a cold winter, and there was no vegetation on the mountain, so it was extremely desolate.

This mountain is indeed like the mountain I saw in the Ghost Gate, I asked Xie Luo if he still remembered the location of the cave, Xie Luo nodded: "I can still identify the terrain, you can come with me." ”

When everyone entered the mountain, Xie Luo walked and stopped, and I was completely disoriented, and everything was almost the same. In this way, everyone didn't even eat lunch until more than two o'clock in the afternoon.

I was exhausted and completely on my breath. At this moment, the road in front of me suddenly became familiar, and I carefully distinguished and recognized that this was indeed the mountain of the Ghost Gate Pass.

"This is it!" I said, my heart is beating violently, this feeling is amazing, the illusion of the ghost gate actually coincides with the reality in real life.

Xie Luo led the way in front, and as he walked along the mountain road, a small temple suddenly appeared. I didn't expect that there would be a mountain temple in such a remote mountain.

Li Blind said: "There is a temple, strange, can there be incense in such a remote area?" ”

The location of the temple is close to the cave, and there may be some correlation between the two, so we decided to go into the temple to have a look.

The area of the temple is not large, and it is a small courtyard, which is empty. There is a copper incense burner in the courtyard, which is full of incense ashes. Enter the Buddha hall, where a statue of a Bodhisattva is enshrined, and a white elephant is riding underneath. I still have a little knowledge of Buddhism, and there is only one Bodhisattva riding a white elephant, and that is Fuxian Bodhisattva.

When he arrived at the Buddha Hall, no one dared to make a mistake, not even Li Blind didn't dare to say some cheap words. Everyone looked around, found nothing, and was about to leave, when they saw Xie Luo standing in front of the divine seat, staring closely at the Bodhisattva statue and saying nothing.

"What's wrong?" Xiong Dahai asked.

Xie Luo said slowly: "I saw the image of the Bodhisattva in the cave of the demon, which is the Bodhisattva of Fuxian. It is exactly the same as the image of this statue. ”

Xie Ling was shocked: "You mean, the demonic illusion Bodhisattva is here to eat fireworks in the world?" ”

"Not bad." Xie Luo looked at the god table, on which were placed a lot of rotten fruit offerings, and a few unburned incense sticks were inserted in the small incense burner.

"There are people who often come here to offer incense," Xie Luo said, "and there are still believers here." ”

Xiong Dahai sneered: "These monsters are really bold, stealing the name of the Bodhisattva, gathering the power of the human mind with the help of cultivation, subduing demons and eliminating demons, what demons are descended, and that's it!" The more he spoke, the more excited he became: "If this kind of demon is really out of the horse fairy, it can be seen how far the chaos in the Northeast is out of the horse fairy!" What's wrong with Third Master Hu, don't come out to take care of it! ”

No one in the hall spoke.

Xie Ling sighed, walked out of the Buddhist hall, and we followed out of the small temple together. Bypassing a hill and looking over the high hillside, there is a huge cave in the cliff face opposite, and the Hessian forest is cold and cold, and the naked eye can see the bursts of white cold air emanating from it.

My teeth rattled: "That's it, this is it!" ”

I glanced towards the front of the cavern, "Strange, there should be a muddy pond and toads, how can it be so clean?" ”

Xie Luo was also puzzled: "After all, the mirror image in the Ghost Gate Pass is different from the real thing in the yang world, what is the mystery, I can't see it yet." ”

We came down from the hillside, slowly walked to the cave, the entrance of the cave is about three meters high, we did not rush in, but found a shelter at the entrance of the cave, ate something and drank hot water, and then rested quietly for a while, no one knows what will happen when we go in, but I have a hunch that it must be nine deaths.

At about four o'clock in the afternoon, it was dark in the mountains, the sun was no longer visible, and the valley seemed to be covered with a huge shadow. We flipped out our flashlights, one by one, and came to the cave.

When I got to the entrance of the cave, my heart pounded, and I saw that there was an iron fence gate, exactly like what I saw in the ghost gate.

This is the real scene, not a ghost gate, you can't go through the past like that, you have to open this door to get through. Xie Luo was prepared, took out the vise from his backpack, clamped the rusty iron lock, and broke it with a gaba sound, and everyone walked into the deep hole.

The flashlight shone past, and the place dozens of meters into the entrance of the cave was obviously cleaned, very clean, and the wind was dry and strong, and there was almost no floating ash on the ground. I followed the crowd and cautiously walked inside, several flashlights dangling on the walls of the cave.

As you walked on, you could hear the sound of water droplets, the ground was slimy, there was a lot of mud, the wind was strong, and the air was filled with a faint fishy smell.

Walking can be hundreds of meters, for the hole is already very deep and deep, the route is extremely tortuous, and in some places can only pass through one person narrowly.

At the end of the walk, a huge hole appeared in front of me, and in the darkness there was a continuous sound of water dripping, and the slimy mud stained the trouser legs.

"What's next?" Xiong Dahai asked Xie Luo.

Xie Luo was puzzled: "The cave in the Ghost Gate Pass is not as complicated as it is in front of you, it should have arrived a long time ago." ”

Jieling suggests that everyone look for it separately, and you can always find some clues.

We split up and looked for it, and after looking around, I didn't find anything, and Li Blind suddenly said, "You guys come and see." ”

We walked over, and saw a tattered altar in the dark corner, on which was a fallen incense burner, and the table was full of water, and the water on the top of the cave fell on it, and I don't know how many years it had accumulated, and it flowed down the table in a stream.

Xie Ling raised his flashlight and shone it on the wall of the cave behind the altar, on which there was graffiti, and someone carved a mural with something sharp. The lines of the figures on the mural are very simple, even simple, and you can still see what is drawn.

The content of the mural is Bang Hai playing with Jin Toad.

During the Chinese New Year, there are such New Year paintings sold in the market. The ancient character bangs, grinning, holding a golden toad in his hand. The so-called golden toad is a toad.

This mural is carved more than a meter high from the ground, and when you look at it, you need to look up, and the surrounding darkness is boundless, and such a painting suddenly appears in the light, which is indescribably weird.

Li Blind said: "Look at the gaze of the bangs. ”

The bangs in the painting do not look at the toad, but look beyond the palm of the hand and look diagonally downward. Blind Li shone a flashlight on it, and there was a small hole in the cave wall that only allowed one person to pass through, which looked extremely narrow.

When everyone came to the entrance of the cave, the flashlight shone into it, and the cave was extremely tortuous, and the light could only find the cave wall, and nothing could be seen.

Xie Luo said: "I'm advanced." He threw his backpack on the ground and got into it first.

Xiong Dahai laughed: "I'll come too, I don't know if my body can wear it." He followed behind Xie Luo, barely squeezing in.

We threw our backpacks in place, got into them one by one, and squeezed them in.

The hole was very long, and it was so tight that it was difficult to breathe, and it took a long time to pass through.

When they came out of the hole, there was a huge, empty space inside. Everyone couldn't wait to use the flashlight to illuminate it, and they were all stunned at this sight.

And I was just stupid, I couldn't believe what I was seeing.
