By the time I was knocked unconscious, I was unconscious, and I don't know what happened after that.

I don't know how long later, I regained some consciousness in my mind, but I couldn't open my eyes, I felt cold all over my body, in the haze, I felt like I was lying in a warm and soft embrace, this embrace made me a little warmer, and a little more relieved, I reached out and hugged the people around me tightly.

I was half-asleep in this warm embrace, and after a long time, my hot face slowly cooled down and my body warmed up. Although I am still tired and sore, my spirit has improved a lot. When I opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was a pink dress, half of my body curled up in Xiao Jiuhong's arms. I could see her eyes, and her expression.

I sat up all at once, my face began to heat again, my mind was far from being open to a certain extent, in those days, men and women would blush each other for a long time when they held hands, let alone lie in the arms of a girl. I was a little overwhelmed for a while, and I wanted to say something, but I couldn't say it.

At this moment, my impression of Xiao Jiuhong in my heart began to change. She is still Xiao Jiuhong, an arrogant and arrogant Xiao Jiuhong, but looking at her at this moment, I feel that there are more things in her arrogance that I didn't expect before. She could have walked away while I was unconscious, or even killed me, but she didn't, so she held me until my body temperature returned to normal.

I want to say a few words of gratitude, gratitude is a rule that people should keep in mind, but how do I speak? When I wanted to speak, I suddenly remembered that my father died at the hands of the red lady.

"Are you better?" Xiao Jiuhong's skin was thicker than mine, so it was so unnatural, and then she returned to normal, straightened her clothes, and said: "Your eyes are really blind, I looked at your aunt before, and I felt that she had hanging eyes and thin lips, she was not a good bird, and you still called a kiss by an aunt." "

As soon as I mentioned this, my mind immediately retracted, Aunt Tang, what's the matter with her? I trust people so easily that it wasn't until this point that I realized that a lot of things were actually not normal. Those people from the Song family were driven here, can the aunt of the Tang family not see it? What does it mean that she sees it but doesn't say it? Or even, the Song family came here with her own hands?

I stood up and looked ahead, just like the aunt of the Tang family, walking through this section, the ground was full of large stone bricks one meter square, neatly paved. I still remember the words of the Tang family's aunt, in fact, this matter is very confusing to me, if she just wants my life, then just do it, don't tell me how to get out and knock me unconscious.

I took a closer look at the large stone bricks in front of me, and tentatively stepped out of the step, which meant that I could only step on the odd number of square bricks. The aunt of the Tang family did not lie, and the singular stone bricks under her feet were very strong and reliable, and they were stable. I led the way in front of me, and walked about a dozen square bricks in front and back.

At this moment, the Zhenhe mirror hanging around his neck suddenly rang by itself, and immediately after, it began to tremble, rising and falling in his chest. At the same time, I heard the sound of rushing water, which came from some direction, hazy but clear, and very strange.

I didn't dare to move all of a sudden, and looked around, and the crackling sound of the pine blossoms, and I couldn't see anything unusual under the firelight.

"What's going on?" Xiao Jiuhong was already scared by the things in front of her, and when she heard the sound that something was wrong, she immediately became nervous: "Is your aunt shaking us again?" "

"No, it won't." I look left and right, the floor tiles under my feet should be fine, if there is a problem, it can only mean that it is out of the Zhenhe mirror.

The mirror of Zhenhe beat faster and faster, as if it had life, and the light refracted by the mirror became brighter and brighter, and after a while, I heard the dome above me click a few times, and then several beams of light shone obliquely from above.

The tremor of the Zhenhe mirror suddenly reached its peak, and the light in the heart of the mirror suddenly flourished, shining out from my chest and merging with several beams of light on the ground.

"What is that! What is it! Xiao Jiuhong raised her head and looked at the dome, her mouth couldn't close, a kind of surprise and a kind of fear.

The dome cracked into a gap the size of seven fists, and behind each gap, there seemed to be a huge eye, and those few rays of light seemed to be refracted from several eyes. Xiao Jiuhong and I didn't even have a chance to be surprised, the seven beams of light merged with the light of the Zhenhe Mirror, and the four square bricks shrouded in light flipped down with a bang, and suddenly, the sound of flowing water that I heard before became clearer.

"Water is running down the bricks?"

I walked over slowly, stretched out my head and looked down, and when I looked at it, I immediately froze. Under the square bricks, there is a well, which looks very ancient, and the water in the well flows slowly, gradually distinguishing between the two yin and yang fish.

When I saw the well, my vision began to blur. The well water was as bright as a mirror, and in a blur, I saw groups of people walking through the mountains. Suddenly, from a long distance, a huge crack stretched across the earth, like a wrinkle in the vast earth, and then, the monstrous water, rolling and drowning the rift, rushed to the east.

"Don't go headlong into it!" Xiao Jiuhong was busy and pulled me.

I woke up suddenly, shook my head, and the scene in front of me disappeared into nothingness, and the well water was still like two yin and yang hugging each other, slowly flowing. The huge rifts, the monstrous water, rolling eastward, I suddenly remembered what the old ghost had told me before.

The Yellow River was opened by man.

I wanted to see something more, but the well was silent, and after about ten minutes, Xiao Jiuhong dragged me away. My mind is completely confused, I can't say that I don't believe the old ghost's words, but I can't figure it out in my heart, who is capable of forcibly carving out a great river that stretches for thousands of miles on the earth? The seven gates of the river, patrolling the river town for thousands of years, what mission is it shouldering?

The brick-paved road soon came to an end, and the air around me was a little drier, which made me feel that we had invisibly left the bottom of the river. The road after that was completely dug by man, simple and rough, but such a road was risk-free and went very smoothly.

Walking along the road dug by this person, I felt that the terrain was getting higher and higher, and the road was very long, and the people who walked it felt hairy in their hearts, as if they would never see the end. Xiao Jiuhong couldn't help but slowly hugged her arms, stretched out her head to look forward, and said, "Where does this road lead?" "

"I don't know."

"Wait a minute, you go out first." Xiao Jiuhong lowered her head and said, "I'm like this, how can I see people." "

I turned my head to look at her, Matsuakiko was fading, and her neck and arms were as white as snow. Xiao Jiuhong's cheeks flushed with a faint flush, and he frowned slightly.

For the first time, I felt that she looked better than I thought.

"Wait a minute, I'll go out first." I looked up and down, my gown was gone, I had nothing but a small bag tied around my waist, and I couldn't take my pants off for her.

As I spoke, the terrain was a little higher, and Songmingzi was about to burn to the end, and I secretly said in my heart, at this time, if there is no illuminated hole in the hole, my eyes are black, how can I go? Just when I felt that it was difficult, I saw that the road ahead seemed to be at the end, and there was a wooden ladder standing against the soil layer. I was in the mood for it, and there was no doubt that it was an exit from the terrain.

I went to the side of the ladder and looked at it, and at a glance I saw a hole in it, which was faintly bright, and it was very quiet, and I could not hear a sound. I stepped on the ladder and climbed slowly up until I reached the end of the ladder, and I was immediately surprised when I poked half of my body out of the hole above.

This exit is in a room, and such a room is the most common bedroom for ordinary people on the river beach. I couldn't see a single person, the tables and stools in the room and the floor were covered with a thick layer of ash, and it was estimated that no one had lived in it for a long time.

"Come on." I shouted to Xiao Jiuhong below, she climbed up on her feet, the light in the room was a little dim, but Xiao Jiuhong was not used to it immediately, and took off the sheet from the bed that she hadn't slept with for a long time and draped it on her body.

I don't know what this place is, I walked to the door of the house, and slowly pushed the door open, it was the middle of the morning, although the sky was a little gloomy, but when I walked from the door to the courtyard, I was stunned, and I felt an indescribable feeling in my heart.

Through the courtyard, I saw a familiar scene, where is this? This is Xiaopanhe Village! I have lived in a place where I have lived for more than ten years, every household and every corner of the village, I am familiar with it and I will never be mistaken.

I was completely confused, and I couldn't say a word for a long time, only the thick haze in my heart was constantly rolling. What especially surprised and confused me was that the courtyard where I was standing was the home of Grandma Seven. In other words, the large space at the bottom of the river where the lotus wood is stored leads directly to the bedroom of the seventh grandmother.

What's going on? Originally, I had forgotten Grandma Seven, but standing in the courtyard of her house, the old woman who looked kind and kind suddenly blurred a lot in my heart. It was impossible for her not to know the entrance in the bedroom, who was she? Could it be that she lives in Xiaopanhe Village with our Chen family, not an accident, not a coincidence, but an inevitability?

At this moment, I suddenly understood why the aunt of the Tang family took the first step. If the three of us come out from below together, I will definitely recognize Xiaopanhe Village, and I will recognize that the exit is at Grandma Qi's house, so the aunt of the Tang family will explain to me how she knows about this entrance.

Just because she couldn't explain clearly, or even couldn't explain it, she would leave me and Xiao Jiuhong and go first.

All this was completely unexpected by me, and I stood for a long time in the dead courtyard, and felt more and more that everyone except me seemed to have secrets.
