According to legend, during the Yin Shang period, in order to please his concubine Daji, the king of Shang built Lutai in Qihewan, which took seven years.

At that time, the peaks around Qihe Bay stood tall and white clouds lingered.

The strange rocks are rugged and graceful. There are pines and cypresses towering to the sky, there are willows hanging together, peaches and plums compete for beauty, butterflies dance and birds sing.

Under the deer platform, there is a pool of spring water, which is unfathomable.

On a sunny morning, it will be a scene full of colorful clouds, purple air, and mist. The pavilions and pavilions of the entire Lutai will disappear from time to time in the clouds and mist, like a mirage.

Well, the above text is recorded in ancient books.

In the twentieth year of the Republic of China, on December 29, 1931 in the Western calendar, Su Wenxing accompanied a woman named Josie to come here, only to see the devastation, ruins and mess.

Lutai has long disappeared in the long river of history.

The pomp and circumstance of that year is only occasionally recorded in writing.

The vicissitudes of life, and there is a big mound left in Lutai today. And as the earth's crust changes, the large mound is divided into six pieces. The locals of Qi County call it 'Xiaolutai and Liulutai', which are arranged in an orderly manner from east to west.

The handlebar drove the car away, and only Su Wenxing was left in Lutai.

The wind blowing from the surface of the Qi River was chilling. Even if he was wearing a thick cotton coat, he couldn't resist it. Su Wenxing stood on the side of the road and watched Josie walk between the mounds. She suddenly stopped to check, and suddenly squatted on the ground, grabbed a handful of loess, and let it flow out between her fingers.

I don't know what to see about this desolate scene!

Today's Lutai, whether it was the Lutai of the year or not is still two words.

With only six large mounds, relying on the legends of the locals, it is believed to be the ruins of Lutai?

Su Wenxing always felt that it was a bit unreliable.

He took out a cigarette case from his pocket, took out a cigarette, and lit it with a fire.

He took a deep puff of his cigarette, followed by a violent cough. It's been a long time since I've smoked, but recently I've been smoking again. It's just that you'll still be choked, it's just a habit.

"What you smoke is not good for your health."

Josie walked over, snatched the cigarette, threw it on the ground, and extinguished it with her shoe.

"You're going to have a fistula, if you smoke it again, you'll lose your life sooner or later, don't smoke it again in the future."

Su Wenxing was stunned for a moment, but he was not angry.

He nodded, smiled innocently, and said nothing.

"Let's go, walk around here with me."

"Okay!"

Su Wenxing accompanied Josie into the ruins of Lutai.

Judging from the ruins exposed by the surrounding cliffs, there is a very obvious accumulation of cultural layers in the Lutai ruins.

"There are two layers of culture here.

The upper layer, as we see it now, belongs to the accumulation of Han and Han cultures; And underneath this, there is also the accumulation of Shang, Zhou, and even more ancient cultures. This is the cradle of Chinese civilization. ”

Josie said, suddenly taking two steps and bending down to pick up something from the ground.

"Look, what is this?"

"I don't know."

"Hehe, maybe this is the cultural relics left over from the Han Dynasty, there are treasures everywhere."

With that, Josie tossed her belongings aside.

Su Wenxing glanced at it, then smiled slightly, and did not speak again.

"Xiao Su, what do you do?"

"Me? Crop handles, rednecks. ”

"Redneck?" Josie shook her head with a smile and said, "I don't believe it, your handwriting is so good, your ancestors must have been a scholar." Your pavilion is really beautiful, and if you put it in the previous dynasty, the champion may not be able to compare with it. Perhaps, you are favored by Lafayette, even if you are not an official, you are also a celebrity. ”

"Hahaha, Miss Qiao, you really know how to tell jokes, write a few words, and you will be a celebrity?"

Su Wenxing held his hands and shook his head again and again.

Josie glanced at him, as if to say to herself, "Not necessarily, who can say for sure?" ”

"Miss Qiao, what are you talking about?"

"Ah, didn't say anything...... Xiao Su, what kind of scene would you see when you stand on the top of the deer platform? ”

"I don't know, but if you want to know the answer, go up and see."

"yes, let's go up."

"Now?"

"Yes, let's go to the top of Lutai and see what King Shang and Daji Niangniang were looking at back then."

Josie suddenly came to her senses, and regardless of whether Su Wenxing agreed or not, she climbed up the mound.

Su Wenxing didn't want to go up, but Josie climbed halfway and beckoned to him again and again: "Xiao Su, come up." ”

Looking at the slope height of Lutai, although Su Wenxing was reluctant, he still agreed.

He climbed up after Josie, coughing softly as he crawled.

After crawling a sweat, I finally got on the deer platform.

It's windier and colder......

Su Wenxing stood on the deer platform, almost shrunk into a ball.

Josie, however, didn't seem to feel the cold at all, and suddenly opened her arms and shouted at the empty wilderness.

The sound, echoing in the air, was quickly blown away by the wind.

"Xiao Su, I really want to see the legendary Lutai Chaoyun one day."

"Lutai Chaoyun? It's long gone! ”

"You're really boring."

Josie glanced at Su Wenxing, seemed to be a little angry, and turned her head to ignore him.

Originally, Lutai Chaoyun was a legend left over from the period of King Shang. Now this is no longer the city of songs, it has become a wilderness. Still 'Chaoyun'? That's all fooling people.

Thinking of this, Su Wenxing couldn't help but shake his head.

The wind on the deer platform is very strong.

The field of vision is also very broad, the mountains in the distance and the Qi River in the near distance are all in view.

The city of Qi County can be clearly seen standing on the deer platform. In the slanting sun, there is a breath of vicissitudes. Josie stood on the edge of the deer platform, staring blankly at the distant landscape, not knowing what to think.

"Xiao Su!"

"Huh?"

"You say, when the immortals came on a fox, where did they take Daji Niangniang?"

"How do I know this?"

"Guess what!"

Josie turned to look at him, her voice trembling a little.

For some reason, Su Wenxing felt as if there was a look of pleading in her eyes. What is she praying for? Su Wenxing felt a little strange in his heart. Perhaps, she is already crazy, so she is like this?

The fingers changed, and they calculated quickly according to the technique of Qimen Dunjia.

Su Wenxing looked at it for a long time, and pointed to the Guling Mountain on the other side of the river: "A mountain is like a tiger lying down, and no one is allowed to cross it." This is the yin and yang realm, and it is difficult to flow high water...... Daji Niangniang was already dead at that time, and the immortals took her away, presumably to bury her properly. If she is buried nearby, it will be in Guling Mountain. ”

"Are you sure?"

"This, I'm talking nonsense."

Su Wenxing saw that Josie was about to get angry, and hurriedly said: "However, Feng Shui has a saying, the cave person, the mountains and rivers intersect, the yin and yang melt, and the place of love is also." As far as the acupuncture method is concerned, the internal qi is generated, the external qi is formed, the internal and external qi are multiplied, and the feng shui is self-contained. As far as the Lutai site is concerned, the best acupuncture points are hidden in Guling Mountain.

You see, from here, the distance is too strong, and the Qi River flows nearby, which is in response to the saying of negative yin and yang. If I were that immortal, I would definitely bury Daji Niangniang in the mountains, and I would be buried near the water. ”

What Su Wenxing said is what he has learned from reading books in recent years.

Josie's eyes lit up, "Xiao Su, it's okay, I still know feng shui." ”

"I'm really just talking nonsense."

Su Wenxing smiled bitterly, looked at the sky, and said, "Miss Qiao, it's not early this day, should we go back?" The third master can explain that it is not peaceful outside the city now, so let's go back as soon as possible. ”

Josie answered, but didn't move.

She stood on the edge of the mound and looked at Gu Lingshan stupidly.

"Xiao Su, did you say that Daji Niangniang was really buried in the mountain?"

"Probably...... It's not clear. Thousands of years ago, the vicissitudes of life, a lot of changes, who can really know. If Feng Shui was really powerful, her tomb should have been found a long time ago. But until now, no one knows where she is buried...... So, I really can't say. ”

"Oh yes."

Josie nodded, looking a little lost.

She looked at the sky, turned and walked down, saying as she went, "But no matter what, I still want to thank you." ”

"Thank you, I'm talking nonsense."

"But maybe it's true?"

Josie said with a smile as she cautiously walked under the mound.

Her smile is really sweet and beautiful, very much like Youjun! Su Wenxing couldn't help but be stunned when he looked at it, and he forgot that he was still walking on the mound. One was careless, his feet slipped, he screamed, and rolled down in embarrassment.

"Xiao Su, are you okay?"

Josie was also taken aback when she saw it, and quickly sped up.

She ran down the mound and walked to Su Wenxing's side, "Xiao Su, don't scare me?" ”

"I'm fine, I'm fine, I just accidentally slipped just now."

Before, it didn't matter.

Not to mention rolling down from a mound of dirt of this magnitude, even if he really fell, Su Wenxing would not be injured at all. But now, with the spread of the virus, his body functions are constantly weakening, and rolling down from the mound for such a sudden is also a little unbearable for him. However, seeing that Josie's tears were about to flow out, no matter how painful it was, she had to endure it. Su Wenxing endured the pain, sat up and patted his chest and said, "Miss Qiao, you see, I have nothing to do...... Hehe, the country people have rough skin and thick meat, it's nothing. ”

"It's still pretending, it's all bleeding."

This time, the fall was really not light, the dogskin hat fell off, the head was broken, and the hands were bloody.

It's winter, and it's thick!

Su Wenxing felt that with his current physique, if it was in the summer, he was afraid that his body would not be much better.

It's just that he can't say it, and he has to force a nonchalant appearance.

"Miss Qiao, I'm really fine, let's go back early, so as not to worry about the third master at home."

"Good!"

Although Su Wenxing said that it was okay, Josie still helped him to stand up, and then helped him to walk to the side of the road.

She smells so good!

Avene, Avène soap.

That's right, it's this brand of soap, made in France, which is said to be almost 200 years old and rarely seen in China.

The reason why Su Wenxing can smell it is because Youjun liked this brand the most back then.

It's just that it's very expensive, and there aren't too many on the market. I still remember that on a young gentleman's birthday, he got some through his connections. Youjun was very happy after receiving the gift, and he was also very careful when using it, for fear of wasting it.

Josie should be from a large family, otherwise it would be impossible to use this brand of soap.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Sunset, oblique light.

It's getting dark, and the temperature is getting colder.

There are no people on the main road, let alone a vehicle on the road.

Josie helped Su Wenxing to wait for the car on the side of the road, but until sunset, he didn't see the shadow of the road car.

Walking back?

More than ten miles down, but not close.

As the night approaches, the wind grows stronger.

Josie stood beside Su Wenxing, although she didn't say anything, Su Wenxing could feel that her body was trembling slightly, and it was very close. Take off the dogskin hat and put it on Josie's head.

"What are you going to do?"

"I'm a big man, I'm still afraid of this, wear it."

Su Wenxing said, ready to take off the padded jacket. But Josie disagreed, saying that Su Wenxing's body and bones were not good, and if he took off the padded jacket, he might get sick, but it would be even more troublesome.

"I'm fine, Hangzhou is colder in winter than here."

Josie said with a smile: "When I was in college, it was cold in the dormitory, so I went out for a run and exercised. So, I'm fine, don't look at you as a man, but the body may not be able to compare to me. ”

Just as the two were arguing, a carriage drove from the end of the road.

"Xiao Su, look, there's a car!"

"yes, if it's fast, maybe we'll be able to get back before the door closes."

As Su Wenxing spoke, he jumped into the middle of the road and waved desperately at the carriage.

The carriage pulled up on the side of the road, and the handlebar was a man in his early thirties, dressed in a thick cotton coat and wearing a dogskin hat. He wore a pair of gloves, held a long whip tightly, shrunk in the car, he looked at Su Wenxing vigilantly and said, "Who are you?" What do you want to do? ”
