Chapter 400 Forbidden Land
Zhou Yi saw Zhuangzi smile happily, and a smile appeared on his face. He whispered, "I told you a long time ago, and it won't hate you." Now it's all right. No need to cry every day. β
Zhuangzi nodded and said, "Don't cry anymore, I know it's still with me, I'm very happy." β
Zhou Yi smiled, then pointed at the three of us and said, "I'll send them off." β
Zhuangzi nodded and said softly, "I'll wait for you to come back." β
The four of us said goodbye to Zhuangzi and walked deeper into the mountains.
Zhou Yi was silent for a while, and then said to us, "Thank you." Zhuangzi has been feeling guilty all these years, and now she has finally put her mind at ease. β
Mr. Lu smiled: "You're welcome." It's just a matter of effort. You entertained us last night, and we haven't thanked you yet. β
Our group walked forward a little further. Zhou Yi suddenly pointed to a cave and said, "I was rescued here by a master back then. More than thirty years have passed. Sometimes I come here to check it out. β
I looked up at the cave, there were several big trees growing around it, and the thick snow blocked the entrance to the cave for most of it, if it wasn't for Zhou Yi pointing out the location in advance, it seemed that it would not be easy to find it. Big, die.
Mr. Lu asked: "You have been here for so long, have you found a cave with some murals painted in it, and a stone slab...... Mr. Lu described the cave that Zhang Bin found.
Zhou Yi shook his head and said, "I have already turned around the mountains here, and I haven't found the place you said." Unless ......"
Before he finished his words, Mr. Lu had already taken out the road map drawn by Zhang Bin.
Zhou Yi glanced at it twice, nodded, and said, "Sure enough, it's in that place." Come with me. β
Zhou Yi is very familiar with this place, and he walks like a fly in the mountains. We turned a hillside, and Zhou Yi stopped.
He pointed to the mountain wall not far away and said, "Do you see the tree up there?" "That hole is just under the roots of the tree, and you can easily find it by cutting through the snow.
Then he smiled at us: "This is a forbidden place for me. As soon as I get closer, my heart pounds. It's so uncomfortable that it looks like it's going to break down at any moment. It's the only place I haven't been. The cave you're looking for is the only place that can be. β
Mr. Lu thanked him and said, "Then we have to go." β
Zhou Yi agreed and said to us, "Take care, be careful." Then he turned and went back.
When Zhou Yi walked away, I said to Mr. Lu: "At the beginning, Zhang Bin told us that there was a corpse in the cave. You say this corpse, isn't it the one who is high? β
Mr. Lu nodded and said, "There seems to be no one else here, it should be his." Although he knew that we would come to him in thirty years, he finally lost time and died. β
We walked under the tree and began to clear the snow around us.
Xue Qian said: "I always feel that Zhuangzi is a little pitiful. Inexplicably living with a corpse for so many years. How sad? It seems that we should tell her the truth. β
I disagreed with him and retorted: "Zhuangzi is not at all adapted to worldly life, if we sue her the truth." Either she returned to the mountains and continued to live in pain, or she was in the mountains, cut off contact with Zhou Yi and starved herself to death. Or make compromises, knowing that it is a corpse and still live with Zhou Yi. It's painful all day. β
Mr. Lu had already cleared the snow, he looked at me and said, "Is there a possibility?" She knew that Zhou Yi was a corpse, and she still wanted to live happily with him? β
I was stunned for a moment and asked, "Are you going to go back and sue her?" β
Mr. Lu's body had already burrowed into the cave, and only his voice came out: "Do you still need me to sue SΓΉ?" Zhuangzi is indeed simple, but simplicity does not mean stupidity, she has long known that Zhou Yi is dead. β
Mr. Lu's words made me feel a little uncomfortable in my heart, as if something beautiful had been broken. But after thinking about it, Mr. Lu's analysis should not be wrong. Zhuangzi is not stupid, he must have found out.
I sighed, followed Mr. Lu into the cave, and then said: "Zhuangzi already knows that Zhou Yi is a corpse, and he still never abandons him, and he is by his side, this is true love." β
Mr. Lu laughed inside and said, "It may also be because of love." Or, she felt that the outside world was more terrible than corpses, so she refused to go back. β
I hurriedly interrupted him: "Okay, don't talk about it." Anything that is true, good, and beautiful in your mouth is terrible. If you listen too much, you don't have any hope for life. β
Mr. Lu smiled: "There is no hope, it's okay, just follow me to become a monk." β
By this time, all three of us had already gotten in. Except for the initial part of the cave, which is relatively narrow, the inside is very spacious, like a large room.
I shone it around with a flashlight and found that it was exactly what Zhang Bin described. Exactly where we were looking.
Xue Qian took out a few candles from her bag and lit them here. As the candles became more and more bright, I could see my surroundings clearly.
A few of us turned off our flashlights. Then start looking here.
I saw a lot of strokes painted on the walls, and the tone was dark, and it was indeed a scene of the underworld. It's creepy to see too many of these paintings, but I'm looking for news from the underworld this time, and I can't help but look at them.
I asked Mr. Lu, "Are these paintings true?" Did he depict a scene in the underworld, or did he imagine it according to legend? β
Mr. Lu actually said with great certainty: "It's true." β
I was surprised and asked, "How are you so sure?" Have you been to Hades? β
Mr. Lu smiled and said, "I really haven't been there. However, it can be seen from the paintings that the owner of these paintings should have been there. β
Then, he pointed to the mural on the wall and analyzed: "This row should be painted by people from the underworld. β
I stared at the row of paintings, and my mind gradually became confused. At first, the screen is a cloud of black smoke. Immediately after, there was an extra pair of eyes in the smoke. And then in the painting later. Some are monsters with seven or eight hands, and some are people with two heads. In short, all of them are different. Until the end, it became two legendary people, one with a bull's head and the other with a horse's face. It's just that all these monsters are shrouded in a black mist.
I said, "Do all the people of hell look different?" β
Mr. Lu shook his head: "Yin cha people all look similar. β
I pointed to the row of images and asked, "In that case, which one is the real one?" Mr. Lu, haven't you ever seen people from the underworld? β
Mr. Lu stared at the picture on the wall, and after a long while, he said, "These are people from the underworld. It's just that it's drawn from different angles. Truth be told, it's hard to depict people in Hades. Whether it is in words or pictures, it is not clear. β
I asked curiously, "Since the people of the underworld have no way to express it in pictures." What is he doing painting so much on the wall? β
Mr. Lu was silent for a while, and then said, "He is expressing his feelings after seeing the underworld." Don't you feel it? Every painting speaks of the same feeling: fear. β
Xue Qian suddenly said on the other side: "Is he afraid? I can't see it. β
The two of us walked over to another cave wall. I saw the people of Hades painted on it. But there was an extra Taoist priest next to them. He's drinking with these monsters with his glass. The appearance of the people in the underworld has not changed, but with this Taoist priest with a calm demeanor by his side, people feel very peaceful, safe, and it doesn't seem so scary.
Mr. Lu looked at the corpse sitting cross-legged in the center and said, "This person must have been to the underworld." Otherwise, it would be impossible to paint that feeling so expressively. β
I picked up a candle from the ground and said, "Let me see the face of this senior first." β
The candlelight approached the corpse's face, and when I looked at it, I shuddered with fright, and the candle fell to the ground.
Xue Qian saw that my face had changed drastically, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" β
I looked at Xue Qian, then at Mr. Lu, then smiled bitterly and said, "We know this person." β
