Chapter Twenty-Nine: Rocky Hill

"Legend has it that a long time ago, there lived an old Taoist and his two little disciples on Kunlun Mountain, and they practiced in an immortal cave all day long."

"One day, Lao Dao said to two disciples: I want to go to a friend outside the world as a guest, this cauldron is boiling a python caught from the East China Sea, under the pot from time to time to put firewood to burn, from time to time to add water to the pot, don't forget! After saying that, he rode away with a crane. ”

"In this way, the two disciples put firewood off the pot every day, added water to the pot, and hundreds of years have passed, and the master has not come back, and the two little disciples are a little anxious."

One day, one said to the other, "The master will not come back until hundreds of years later, so why don't we go down the mountain and play?" The other also had this intention, so the two of them made the fire prosperous, filled the pot with water and went down the mountain, they had fun along the way, but they were always relieved of the master's explanation, so they bought some wine and meat at a restaurant and hurried back. ”

However, the fire had long been extinguished, and the water was drunk by the yellow python, and I saw that the yellow python was fleeing in the direction of the East China Sea, leaving a yellow water channel where it had passed, and they hurriedly chased along the yellow water channel, and the yellow python found them and hurriedly changed its route and ran to the north. They hurriedly took a shortcut to intercept, the python saw a chaotic turn for a while, and then ran to the East China Sea, the waterway left by the python bend, is today's Jiuqu Yellow River. ”

Besides, when the master returned to the fairy cave, he saw that the fire at the bottom of the pot had been extinguished for a long time, and the yellow python in the pot was gone. He didn't even call the little disciple, he understood everything, and shouted: The two little animals let go of the evil python, so that it is about to plague the world again, and immediately ride a crane to chase after it. ”

The two little disciples chased until dark, and saw the yellow python fleeing into the East China Sea, and were about to rest, when the old master arrived on a crane and shouted: Livestock! You two made the yellow python leave a disaster in the world, then you two will always guard this waterway! ”

After speaking, the two little disciples became two mountains, forever guarding both sides of this waterway, and people called the yellow waterway left by the yellow python the Yellow River, and the mountain that the two little disciples turned into was called Chasing Python Mountain. Later, the people on the south bank of the Yellow River felt that chasing the python mountain was not good, so they changed its name to Pishan, which has been used to this day. ”

"I didn't expect there to be such a legend!" Long Ziyan sighed.

"Hahaha!" The old man laughed and said, "These legends are just legends, and few will believe them, but this mountain is indeed a place of spiritual veins, including the rocky hill on the north side of the mountain." ”

"Ranshigang, is there anything special here?"

"It is said that there are many mausoleums in this mountain, there is one place that is unusual, not only the mausoleum is pitiful, even people rarely set foot in it, it is said that this is the stone hill, the hill is even bare, there are a few big trees scattered, the mountain is not only full of stones, the stones are also very sharp, I heard that there was a Shicheng Mountain here many years ago, it may be too old, Shicheng Mountain has become today's stone hill after wind and rain erosion."

"I'm afraid this rocky hill is not as simple as you say, right?" Brother Kan asked when he heard the clue.

"I asked Liu Yonghong to ask you to help me dig a tomb, and the one that was dug is the ancient tomb hidden under this rocky hill."

When Longgang heard this, he asked: "Listening to your unwavering tone, it seems that you have dug this tomb once." ”

"This little brother has sharp ears to tell you the truth, I did dig this grave with a friend when I was younger."

Long Ziyan asked: "Since you have already planed, why do you have to plane again, is there anything worth remembering here?" ”

"Souvenir? Of course, it is worth remembering, this tomb is the only good brother in my life, and it is worth missing me more than a memorial. ”

"I wonder what's strange and dangerous about this tomb?"

"Listening to the old man, I think that at the beginning, during the war, I dug trenches in this place of Ranshigang, and found the ancient tomb during the operation, so I stopped the operation in order to protect the ancient tomb, and closed the tomb, so I and a brother after a month of stepping on the spot, determined to rob the tomb in this place."

"Soon we chose the target, the two of them took turns to steal the hole, it took a lot of time to finally hit the tomb, just pushed a few bricks, a pungent smell rushed out, the smell pierced us so that we couldn't open our eyes, so we had to wait for the smell to dissipate before entering."

"The pungent smell has not dissipated, my brother is anxious to enter, I can't stop it, I have no choice but to go into the tomb with him, I remember when I got up to enter, my eyes were blurred suddenly, and my ears were buzzing."

"The two of us entered the tomb, the smell of smoked tears, faintly, I could hear the movement in the tomb, a small sound in the isolated tomb is also heard clearly, we had no experience at the time, scared and trembled, my brother raised a flashlight to find the sound of the source, and saw a tall man with long hair and shawl standing opposite, thinking of the sound just now, thinking of the sound just now, thinking that he had met the zongzi, he was so frightened that he ran out."

"In the darkness, my brother fell to the ground without knowing what he stepped on, only a chirping sound and my brother's screams, I also felt something sweep under my feet, I asked him what happened, I heard him tell me to run, hurry ......up, "Before I finished speaking, it was like something grabbed by the throat."

"I didn't listen to him, when I went to save him, I only felt a bone with flesh and blood, I was frightened and I didn't have time to think about it and ran away from the cave, and sealed the thief hole, poor my good brother has been sleeping here for a long time, I have been thinking about this matter, I want to know what happened down there, but as I get older and older, I can't do it, so I want to go to this tomb before I die."

"That's why you found Brother Liu, sold him a white jade vase at a low price, and asked him to help you find a few good hands at plowing the ground, so as to fulfill your long-term wish."

"As you say, that's the way it is."

Brother Kan rushed to say when he heard it: "This matter is wrapped up in me, Brother Kan, I like to make friends with people who value love and righteousness, don't worry about leaving it to me!" ”

"Love and righteousness?" The old man lit a cigarette, took two puffs and said, "I don't deserve these four words, if I could have stopped him at the beginning, I wouldn't have become like today, there is no one around me who can speak, I regret not being at the beginning!" ”

Long Zijing comforted the old man and said: "It's not your fault, but after so many years, your affection for this friend remains the same, which really makes the younger generation embarrassed." ”

"No matter how affectionate he is, he can't compare to the joy of being able to live in the world, and now I can only rely on this life and death to confess to him, young man, don't regret losing to me like this, these brothers who accompanied you from birth to death, you have to cherish it!"

Long Ziyan looked back at Longgang who was wiping the flying knife, "Yes, it will be, don't worry, I will definitely cherish it." ”

When the old man heard this, he smiled happily, "Hahaha! That's good, that's good. ”

I won't go down to the ground today, it's too late, the rocks on the mountain are sharp, the terrain is complicated, and few people will go to the rocky hill during the day, so don't worry about being found when you go down, I will go with you tomorrow.

In the middle of the night, a few people spent the night in the old man's house, and Longgang sat alone in the courtyard for a night, and when he was sleepy, he leaned against the wall and slept all night.

The next day, Long Zijing saw Longgang sleeping peacefully in the courtyard, walked over and didn't wake him up, took a thick coat and covered Longgang, got up and walked away.

Long Ziyan packed up the guy and went out, Longgang in the courtyard was gone, the clothes were placed on the chairs, Brother Kan and a few people were also ready, the old man only carried a hoe and got into the car, Longgang sat in the co-pilot on the car, and Long Ziyan and the old man were behind.

Brother Chen was driving the car, and Brother Kan saw that the old man was only carrying a hoe and asked curiously: "Old brother!" ”

Hearing Brother Kan call himself like this, the old man was really startled, "Brother? I can be your grandfather, and you call me a brother, hahaha! ”

"What are you laughing at, I handed over your brother yesterday, what's wrong with calling you an old brother?"

"Alright, alright, I've forgotten how long it's been since I've heard someone call me brother."

Brother Kan patted his chest and said: "From now on, we are brothers, if there is anything, tell my brother, I will cover you for this piece." ”
