"Uncle Xia, listen to your heart. You see, the stone steps that spiral down in the shade of the trees are exquisite! "I was worried that if they made a mistake, it would cause irreparable consequences, so I negotiated with them before going down the stone steps," I also heard from Uncle Zhang about the layout of this stone steps.

He said that the different colors of this stone step represent different hexagrams, three pieces of one order, and ten steps of one game.

"Therefore, we follow the locals and follow its layout, otherwise ......"

Hearing me say this, Ling Xin's face changed, and he asked me in a low voice, "What happens if you make a mistake?" ”

After listening to her words, I glanced at Professor Xia, who didn't say anything, just gave me a look and told me to continue.

"Ahem, listen. If we make the wrong move, we'll trigger the traps between the cliffs, and I think we'll be chopped into meat sauce with a guillotine, or shot into honeycomb coal by random arrows. I sighed.

"Ahh It's so dangerous, then I'd better not go! Ling Xin said and shrank his neck in fright, and his body trembled slightly.

At this time, Professor Xia patted her on the shoulder and said, "Lingxin, Sen is right, I just took a closer look, and it looks like this place is indeed a stone staircase built a long time ago, and there is indeed a mechanism.

"But don't be afraid, we have to trust Sen, do what he says, and it will be fine."

After hearing Professor Xia's words, Ling Xin's nervous expression eased slightly, and she looked at me and asked, "Sen, then how should we go?" ”

"As for my speculation just now, it is indeed unfounded. But we can't just take the risk of challenging authority – the wisdom of the ancients is difficult for us to fathom.

"Therefore, we must follow the pattern here, according to the 'Qianqiankan', 'Xunxun', 'Dui Duizhen', and 'Gen Genkun'...... This law is so on, along the stone steps corresponding to the hexagram arrangement.

"These stones seem to be the same color, but they are still slightly different, so you can just follow me." I explained them in detail.

At this time, Professor Xia looked at me and said, "In that case, Sen, you can lead the way for us, and we will follow your steps." ”

Lingxin was a little unhappy when I said it, so I stepped forward to comfort her: "Lingxin Woman, while we shoulder the heavy responsibility, we have the aura of the protagonist, don't worry, there is me!" ”

For this reason, she stretched out her sorrowful face and smiled: "Haha, Sen, you are off topic again." Lead the way, so that I can go down and see the scenery of the lower pool valley. ”

"Okay, let's go!" I shook the branch in my hand like a guide waving a small flag to lead visitors to the next attraction.

This spiral stone staircase winds down to the bottom of the valley, and the deep pool is named Gu Tan, and the valley is called Tan Valley due to the influence of the deep pool. The valley is full of trees, and the small round-leaved spotted trees in the bushes along the stone road are on average only a meter tall, but there are many large trees growing between the cliffs on one side of the valley, and the canopies are varied.

It may be that the small rainforest climate is unique to this area, and even the unknown vines grow thick, but there is a strange phenomenon here - no matter how much the vines spread, not a single one reaches the stone path.

In addition, there was not a single fallen leaf on the stone pavement, not even moss grown, and after years of washing, it was still as if it were newly paved.

I stopped them. After we stopped and took a closer look, Professor Xia's point of view made me feel very interesting, he said that these stone steps made of stones, because this kind of stone has a special magic, so these plants can sense it, so they dare not cross the thunder pond half a step.

When Professor Xia took out the chisel in his backpack and was about to take a small piece of it to study, I stopped him.

Perhaps also because of the magic of the stone, Professor Xia forgot that the slightest movement of the next piece of the stone road may cause great changes in the entire stone steps, and this ingenious stone steps can be regarded as a noble work of art.

When I told him my opinion, he was sorry for it, but after he was ashamed of what he had just done, his expression was full of awe for the art of building the stone steps.

"Uncle Xia, you don't have to regret this, we will reach the bottom of the valley in a while, we can collect some samples of the pool water, according to what I saw last time, the magic of the pool of water is not inferior to this." When I said that to him, his eyes lit up.

Then I continued to walk forward, leading the way for the two of them, and heard the reminder from behind me to Professor Xia: "Dad, look at it, Sen is walking in that piece, you be careful." "For this reason, I have to admit that I am far from being as attentive as I am to listen, but I will not tell her this.

The lower we go, the more light comes in, because the trees are so dense that the light doesn't come in, and only diffracted sunlight allows the plants to absorb the light, so the leaves of these trees are dark green, the dark green that has no luster, and the light here is getting worse and worse.

At the end of the road, the surrounding light seemed dim, and I could no longer distinguish the color of the slate, so I could only rely on the previous arrangement rules, so I thought that because the ancestors of the Zhang family lived here, they did not need to deliberately distinguish it, and a road map had already been formed in my heart.

"Look, Mori! What about fireflies! Lingxin had never seen such a beautiful firefly before, and was amazed like a child.

This firefly is different from the traditional ones, it is slightly larger, its belly is shiny, and when it flies, it is fragrant, and it smells like jasmine.

"Lingxin, this firefly is quite a sight to behold, so don't try to catch it, otherwise be careful that it bites you." I looked at her and explained.

"Oh." As soon as he stretched out his hand to touch the firefly, he withdrew his hand and pouted.

"That's right, Listen to the Heart. Mori is reasonable, the firefly that only came out at night may be due to the environment here, and the haunting time period is abnormal, which indicates that it is a new species that has evolved.

"When we do archaeology, we must be principled, and in the case of exploring nature, we must also be in awe of it, and the reason why secrets are secrets is ......." Professor Xia stopped halfway through his words, as if realizing that he had said the wrong thing.

"A secret is a secret because of its mystery. Right! "For this, I save the road.

"Yes, yes, yes!" Professor Xia agreed again and again, showing an embarrassed smile.

"Yes, yes, the next sentence of that sentence, I know!" Lingxin disdainfully said to the two of us.

Seeing that Lingxin's mind was still holding on to the fireflies, I considered that we should go down first, lest the bright appearance of the fireflies bewitch her after a long time.
