Chapter 624: Dragon Bone Terraces
He Hong leaned over to the door and looked at it, then turned to me and said, "Someone has touched the door of the cellar!" ”
I also went over to take a look, and sure enough, I saw that the mold on the door panel was peeling off, and someone had indeed touched it not long ago.
But this is not like Liu Shangang's style, he is very careful, even if he enters the cellar, he will not leave such obvious marks on the door.
I handed over He Lao Ghost to Li Renfeng, and then opened the wooden door, because the wooden door panel had been highly inflated, there was a very harsh squeezing sound at the door shaft when I opened it.
If Liang Houzai and them were really inside, just hearing this sound, they should have taken action.
But until the wooden door was fully opened, there was no movement in the cellar.
The inside of the cellar was pitch black, and I had to take out my flashlight and light it in, and I saw a few empty shells scattered on the stairs leading to the depths, which were armor-piercing shells.
I was immediately excited, Liu Shangang, they should be inside!
I didn't think much about it at the time, and immediately went in, but when I came to the bottom of the stairs, I used a flashlight to sweep the cellar, which was only a dozen square meters, and there was no one here except for a backpack standing in the corner.
I picked up my flashlight and lit it on the backpack, which was exactly the same style as mine, it should have been left over from Luo Youfang or Liang Houzai, and near the backpack, there were some unfinished compressed biscuits and half a bottle of water scattered.
Seeing these things, I remembered that the bullet casings on the stairs had landed wrong, and I looked back at the stairs again.
Most of the bullet casings fell on the upper three sections of the stairs, indicating that Liu Shangang should have been prostrate at the door of the cellar when he fired, who he was fighting with at that time, and why there were no bullet casings outside the cellar.
I ran outside and looked at the wall opposite the cellar, where there were no bullet holes.
This is strange, Liu Shangang shot at the opposite side, if his opponent was a human, why use armor-piercing bullets? Why didn't the armor-piercing shell hit the opposite wall? Even if he hits with a gun, the armor-piercing bullet will fly to the side of the wall after penetrating the body, and there will be no blood on the ground.
Li Renfeng walked to the door of the cellar and asked me, "What's the matter, Brother Liang, aren't they inside?" ”
I didn't bother with him, but went back to the cellar and took a closer look at the surroundings.
In addition to the backpack and uneaten food, there was only a string of scattered footprints on the dusty ground, I tried to distinguish them, and soon identified the footprints of Liang Houzai, Liu Shangang, and Luo Youfang, but in addition to them, there were other people who had been here, and on the ground, there was also a sole print without any patterns, which looked like old cloth shoes with a thousand layers of soles from the shape.
At this time, Li Renfeng also ran in and asked me, "Brother Liang, are they not there?" ”
"They've been here," I replied simply, crouching down and looking at the footprints on the ground, "but left not long ago." ”
When I spoke, I deliberately kept my tone steady, but now my mind was actually a mess.
What did Liang Houzai encounter with them, why did Liu Shangang shoot, and why did they leave in a hurry?
I thought about it for a long time and didn't have any clue, so I had to leave the cellar for the time being and return to the surface.
He Hong probably saw that my face was not very good, and asked me, "What's wrong?" ”
I shook my head: "It's not certain yet. What time do the people in the village get up? ”
"It's usually around five o'clock in the morning." He Hong responded.
I took out my phone and looked at it, and I couldn't receive a signal in this place, but fortunately it didn't affect the display time.
It's half past three in the morning, and it's still some time before the villagers get up.
Put away my phone, I let He Hong lead the way, and said that I wanted to go to Jiang Jing to have a look.
Just like when I came in, I jumped on the wall first, and after preparing the steel cable, Li Renfeng climbed out of the yard, and the two of us worked together to pull He Hong and He Lao Ghost out.
Along the way, He Lao Ghost was very quiet, and now he is asleep, sleeping very deeply, and it is estimated that he will not wake up for a while.
He Hong led us to a small road on the west side of the village, and she said that from this road there was a very steep mountain road, and after the mountain road, it was farmland.
At first, I thought that the "farmland" in her mouth was the same as the fields on the plains, which were also large areas of cultivated land connected together, separated by a barrier in the middle, and different fields had different colors, one next to the other.
After walking five or six miles of mountain road, He Hong took me to a large valley, I then knew that the "field" in her mouth was actually a large terraced field, and the fields were scattered with plows and some white flax bags, He Hong said that every morning after the villagers came here, they would use the plow to cut a hole in the ground, take out the seeds sown yesterday, and then plant the new seeds in the sacks.
She raised her hand, pointed to a mound not far away, and said to me, "The top of the keel terraces is Jiang Jing, will your friends really come here?" ”
In fact, when I went up the mountain road just now, I already realized that this farmland was too far away from the village, and Liu Shangang probably wouldn't come here to check it out.
But with the mentality of a dead horse being a live horse doctor, I still nodded at He Hong: "Let's take a look first, they may be in Jiang Jing." ”
The wind was howling in the valley, and when He Hong led us to the mound, the wind lifted up the sand and gravel on the upper layer of the mound, and we could only cover our eyes with our hands and climb to the top of the mound with great difficulty.
It was also after getting closer that I learned why He Hong called this mound "keel terrace", Jiufeng Shanmen people dug a circle of deep ravines on the mound, and the soil on both sides of the ravines was high and raised, like a long and narrow keel.
Li Renfeng looked at the ditch on the mound and asked He Hong: "Is the wellhead on the top of the mound?" ”
He Hong nodded: "Yes, didn't I just say it?" ”
Li Renfeng asked her again: "This mound was artificially erected, right?" ”
He Hong still nodded: "In June of the previous year, the six elders said that they wanted to plant ginger, so they commanded the men to build such a mound. ”
"What kind of ginger to plant, he wants to destroy the feng shui of Jiufeng Mountain!" Li Renfeng said helplessly: "If it's just such a mound, it's okay, the key is that you still dig a well on the top." That wellhead is simply a birth gate, the feng shui of Jiufeng Mountain is in accordance with the eight gates of Dunjia, open, rest, life, injury, Du, Jing, death, shock, the position of the eight doors was originally fixed, he is here to make a life door, your nine Feng Shan Feng Shui bureau will be broken. As soon as the feng shui is broken, the luck will also be scattered. Isn't there a person who understands feng shui in Jiufeng Mountain, such a simple bureau, but anyone who knows a little bit of feng shui can see through it. ”
He Hong stood still, his face couldn't hide his consternation: "You mean, the sixth elder is a traitor?" That's right, why are the Jiufeng Mountain Gate people stationed in the back mountain all trapped in the village, but they didn't see him. ”
I can't raise the slightest interest in the internal affairs of Jiufeng Mountain now, so I reached out and patted Li Renfeng on the back: "Find someone first, and talk about other things later." ”
As I spoke, I had reached the top of the mound, where there was indeed a large manhole cover, and the words "Nine Sealed Mountain" were cast on it.
I lifted the manhole cover and shone it with a flashlight, the well was at least five or six meters deep, and there were many holes in the wall of the well that could be used as a ladder.
The beam of the flashlight shook a few times in the well, and I didn't notice any signs of someone coming in, and I was suddenly a little lost in my heart, and sighed helplessly, and said to myself: "It seems that Liang Houzai and they really haven't come." ”
But at this moment, a familiar voice suddenly came from the well: "Is it Brother Dao?" ”
I'm too familiar with this voice, who else could it be if it wasn't Liu Shangang?
Hearing him speak, my heart that had been hanging instantly fell, and then the joy of reunion swelled up in my heart, and I immediately shouted to the well: "It's me." Are all three of you there? ”
There was a rush of footsteps at the bottom of the well, and in a moment, Liu Shangang and Liang Houzai emerged from directly below the wellhead at the same time.
Seeing the two of them made me feel more at ease.
Liang Houzai tilted his head and shouted at me, "It's all here." But something went wrong with Luo Youfang. Brother Dao, come down and take a look, he is yin qi into the body, only you can save him. ”
I didn't talk nonsense either, and immediately went down the well.
This is the first time I have gone down to the ginger well, and I used to think that the well should be open to the end in one go, and the ginger should be directly below the wellhead.
After coming down, I realized that the vertical well was just a passage, and at the bottom of the well, a storage room was dug specifically for storing ginger. The method is to dig a hole close to the bottom of the well that is enough for one person to walk through the hole, and then dig and widen along the hole to dig out a small soil hole of five or six square meters.
When I came to the bottom of the well, I looked through Liu Shangang and Liang Houzai, and saw Luo Youfang lying in the innermost part of the ginger room, with a steel cable tied around his body, and his body was still trembling.
Liang Houzai said to me: "The yin energy in his body is out of control, and he needs yang energy to check and balance. ”
If it weren't for Luo Youfang's problem, I would definitely give Liang Houzai and Liu Shangang a bear hug now, but at the moment, we are not in such a mood.
I wondered: "Isn't Luo Youfang a ghost fetus, why is he still afraid of yin qi?" ”
"There's no way, that yin qi is too strong," Liang Houzai said, "And it seems to be coming straight at Luo Youfang, neither I nor Liu Shangang were affected." ”
I didn't have the heart to ask what was going on now, so I hurried up to Luo Youfang, holding his man with one hand and putting the other hand on his forehead.
I didn't dare to inject the yang energy directly into his body, because the yang energy in my body was too strong, and I was afraid that he would be harmed. He could only use the technique of carrying the corpse to condense the Qi field of a small wisp of black water corpse coffin on the tips of his fingers, helping him dissolve the yin qi little by little.
There were two Yin Qi in him, one was his own, pure, but very quiet. The other one was very irritable, and it was flowing rapidly in Luo Youfang's body at this time.
I carefully controlled the Qi field of the Black Water Corpse Coffin, and only dissipated the irritable Yin Qi.
As that yin qi gradually dissipated, Luo Youfang finally stopped trembling, and soon, his breathing also became stable, but he never opened his eyes.
I tried his soul, and although it was a little weak after being hit by that yin qi, it was fortunately very complete.
Liu Shangang asked me with some concern, "Is he okay?" ”
I nodded: "It's okay, it's just a temporary coma, I guess it won't take long to wake up." ”
As I spoke, I reached out and untied the steel rope on Luo Youfang's body to let him sleep more comfortably, and then I let out a sigh of relief and stood up straight.
Li Renfeng also came down, and he smiled as soon as he saw Liu Shangang and Liang Houzai: "Oh, I can be regarded as finding you." ”
Liang Houzai smiled politely at Li Renfeng, Liu Shangang ignored him directly, and asked me on the side: "How did you find here?" ”
"It's a long story," I replied, "I went to the cellar on the other side of the ancestral hall just now, and I found you here when I saw that you had already left." By the way, what happened to you at the ancestral hall? I saw that there were also shells of armor-piercing shells on the steps. ”
