arrived at Lanzhou safely, in fact, when you enter Lanzhou, you have already entered the interior of the Kunlun Mountains. The cities in the northwest are not as prosperous as the cities in the Central Plains or coastal areas, but they are a little more quiet. If I could, I would have liked to settle in the Northwest. The scenery along the way is infinite, even if we don't find the yin and yang fire, it is worth talking and laughing along the way.

Our first stop was Lanzhou, where we rested for two days. On the third day, my destination was the Xinglong Mountain Nature Reserve in the southeast of Lanzhou. Due to unfamiliar road conditions, we spared a lot of detours. Why did you choose here for the first stop, firstly, according to Ao Xiang's memory, when he and Liu Bowen were looking for yin and yang fire in Kunlun, they probably found it somewhere, and secondly, the scenery was also good, and they happened to travel.

When we arrived at the place of Yangzhai, it was already afternoon and we had something to eat in the town. Yangzhai, on the S101 provincial road, is already the closest town to the Xinglong Mountain Reserve. After checking the map, we packed our bags and headed out into the mountains the next day. Originally, we could have driven, but we came here mainly to find things, and we didn't think that the yin and yang fire could appear in front of our car, so here, our feet became the main means of transportation.

The altitude here is already high, but it's nothing for those of us who are a bit out of the ordinary. Of course, it is rare to meet individual visitors on the road, and when you enter the mountain, it is like a mud cow entering the sea, and it is difficult to find people, not to mention the yin and yang fire that you have never seen? When we entered the mountains, what did we rely on to find yin and yang fire in the vast mountains? What Ao Xiang has seen before, what he relies on is perception, and what he relies on is luck. There is absolutely no deliberate place to go, just follow the map to the depths of the mountain.

In the evening, we found a house in a col. In the middle of this deep mountain, I am really lucky to see people living there. However, his family's house was not very spacious, with only two old stone houses and one wooden house. When we arrived, we found a man and a woman collecting some vegetables inside the wooden fence. The man is very dark, about forty years old, and the woman is more special, very fair-skinned, and there is a bit of Jiangnan woman's delicate between the eyebrows, not like the local woman. He looks like he's only in his twenties. I thought to myself, "Is this his daughter?" ”

But from their actions and titles, we can all see that this is a couple. What an old couple and a young wife. The world is really so big, such a rough man, with such a delicate woman, there is still so much age difference. When we were about to go up to say hello, Ao Xiang suddenly grabbed me and whispered, "Something is wrong?" I wondered, "What's wrong?" Don't strain your nerves so much? ”

Ao Xiang sniffed his nose again and said, "I don't know, anyway, I feel that something is wrong with people, but I just can't say it." "Ao Xiang generally doesn't make a mistake in judgment, in this deep mountain, there is really something wrong with this couple. Aren't they human? Is it a demon or a ghost? So, I also took a look and opened the eye of the sky to see what was going on. To my disappointment, Ao Xiang seems to have misjudged this time, and the couple has no problems at all, and the righteous ones can't do it anymore.

I smiled and said, "Are you too suspicious?" I watched it just now, and there is no problem with this couple at all. Ao Xiang seemed to look left and right very cautiously, and said, "Yes, that's why I said something was wrong." I patted Ao Xiang on the shoulder and said, "Take one step at a time, since you can't see it, just go with the flow and keep an eye on it." ”

We told the couple that we were here for a tour and were passing through. We are actually the dress of tourists. They did not seem to be very hospitable, and did not invite us to sit in the house, but advised us to leave quickly, saying that it was not only very cold at night, but also infested with wild animals. We don't think so, not everyone is hospitable, is it? If it was hospitable, I wouldn't stay here anymore.

We set up camp in a small clearing not far from their house. We just told them that we were staying here for one night and would be leaving tomorrow morning. In the evening, we simply ate something and then went to bed. After all, everyone has walked for a day, and it is all mountain roads, so they rest relatively early. The night here is indeed very cold, and the wind is blowing, although not very strong, but it is noisy.

"Who?" It seemed that Ao Xiang's roar woke me up from my sleep. I subconsciously put on my clothes and came out with a long knife. At this time, Ao Xiang was already standing outside, and Dorjee and Ji Yuan also came out with weapons. I immediately asked, "What's wrong?" Ao Xiang looked in the direction of the couple's house and said, "I knew that something would definitely happen at night, who knew that someone would really come." Ji Yuan asked, "Do you see who it is?" Ao Xiang shook his head and said, "No." He was very fast, and when I spotted him, he seemed to spot me, so he ran. ”

Dorjee said: "It's that couple, within a radius of 100 miles, it's that family." I sighed and said, "Don't jump to conclusions, we don't have evidence yet, how can we say that it's someone else." Ji Yuan said hesitantly: "There are many people who kill people and oversell goods in this kind of deep mountains, and once we are solved, the property on our bodies will be theirs." The corpses were thrown here for the wolves. Dorjee echoed and said: "I think what Daoist Ji said makes sense, let's start first if you don't go, anyway, there is no one else here." ”

I shook my head and said, "Forget it, just have more eyes, we are out of the house, more things are better than less things." Ao Xiang seemed to be a little uneasy and said: "No, I just don't have a solid heart, you can sleep, I'll go and see for myself." I pulled Ao Xiang and said, "Don't be impulsive." Ao Xiang gave me a sweet smile and said, "I'm just going to see." I was still a little worried, so I said, "Then you wait, let's go together, and we can take care of it." ”

I got dressed, took my three knives and went with Ao Xiang as you headed towards the couple's house. This time, we were quite careful, and when we came outside the house, we didn't notice anything special. Ao Xiang also shook his head at me, and it seemed that he didn't notice anything. I also wondered for a while, this couple looks too ordinary, they are the kind of old and young, they don't seem to want to practice kung fu, and they have nothing to do with ghosts, what can be the problem? Could it be that there is something else in the mountains?

This is Kunlun Mountain, the ancestor of the Chinese dragon vein, if there is nothing to do, then I don't believe it. But whether it came to us for trouble, I don't know. Under normal circumstances, we don't provoke them, and they won't provoke us, unless there is some conflict of interest, they will show up, under normal circumstances, they will pass by, and they will not take the initiative to find trouble, after all, this world is still human.

I bumped into the guts and shouted into the house, "Is there anyone in there?" There was no response for a long time. Ao Xiang and I looked at each other and said, "Are you asleep?" Again, I shouted, "Is there anyone in there?" "There was still no response for a long time. Ao Xiang jumped over the fence, came to the window, looked sideways inside, and then said to me, "There seems to be no one inside." ”

I also climbed over the fence and came out into the yard. There was a knock on the door, and it was locked. I pushed hard, but nothing happened. I bumped into it, and who knew that with such a bang, the door would be slammed open. Ao Xiang and I went to the house and lit the lamp. It was our first time coming in, and there was nothing suspicious, it was all a farmhouse ornament. There is also a bed with a quilt on the bed. I reached out and touched it, and it was still a little warm.

I said suspiciously, "I'm still warm, it seems that I just left." Ao Xiang said hesitantly: "It seems that there is a ghost in the psyche, otherwise what are you going to do?" I thought to myself, "yes, we're not a vicious person, and if we were to kill people and sell goods, we wouldn't come to this place where two birds don't." Do they have to be afraid of being like this? ”

Ao Xiang sniffed his nose and said, "It seems that there are still people in this room, and the smell is coming from under this bed." I crouched down and looked under the bed, and I poked it with a knife, but there was nothing suspicious. Ao Xiangsuo's surname turned over the other person's bed, but he didn't expect this to turn it over and turn it out of the doorway.

Under this bed, there is a floor like a secret door. If you don't look closely, you really become one with the earth. I turned the floor open, and it was a dark tunnel. I smiled and said, "As for it? Still running through the tunnels? "I'm going to jump down, I really want to go and see, and when I meet them, I want to ask, why is that? Do we have murderers written on our faces?

Ao Xiang grabbed me and said, "The ground around here is full of stones, where can I build a dark passage?" I reckon it's a cellar-like sanctuary. After speaking, Ao Xiang shouted into the secret passage: "Come out, we have no malicious intentions, we just want to ask you what's wrong, why you came to our camp in the middle of the night." "There was still an echo coming from inside, and there was no response. I thought to myself: "Could it be that Ao Xiang is wrong, after all, people are locals, and it is not a problem to build a secret passage to run out, but here, in the depths of Kunlun Mountain, a family, build a secret passage, why is this?" Do they still have enemies? Afraid that the enemy will come to the door? ”

I tried to shout into the tunnel, "If we don't come out, we'll set it on fire." This trick really worked, and it didn't take long for a woman's voice to come from inside and say, "Let us live, we didn't think about harming you." I wondered in my heart, so I smelled, "Sister, do you think we are like the most vicious people?" The female voice said, "If not, why did you come to our house in the middle of the night?" ”

It's really hard to answer, yes, if we are all good people, why do we run to other people's houses in the middle of the night, as for whether people like to sleep in a hole in the ground or in a bed, what does it have to do with us? Ao Xiang snorted coldly and said, "Didn't you run to our camp? If it weren't for one of you coming to our camp, would we have followed? I thought they would quibble for a while, but who knew that the woman's voice said, "I went to your camp, but I just went to see it, and I didn't mean to harm you, I hope you will get out of here soon." ”

I said lightly: "I'm not telling you, we are tourists, passing by here, and leaving tomorrow morning." The woman said, "You said it yourself, and who knows what you want to do." I laughed and said, "Even if we are murderous and overkill, what is there in your family that is worth our robbery?" "Here it was the turn of silence inside. This woman is definitely not simple, she can run to our camp quietly, and she can retreat before Ao Xiang finds out, she is definitely a hidden master, but there is no need to hide it like this.

After a while, I said, "Sister, come up, if you have something to say, we are just passing through this place, and there is no malice, if we are really wicked, will we say so much to you?" Wasn't it burned down long ago? Ao Xiang snorted coldly and said, "If you don't come out again, don't blame us for being polite." "Not long after, a man crawled out of the dark passage, and when I saw it, it was the big brother I saw today. Grizzled and dirty, I smiled and said, "Big brother, is this necessary?" If you don't provoke us, will we find it? ”

The man didn't say a word, but knelt down with a puff and said with a dejected expression, "Please, let us go." "I brushed it in my heart, I don't know what kind of play is this singing, it's too subtle, why did it suddenly come to this important role? I immediately went to help him, how could he have my strength, after I pulled him up, I pressed him to the bed on the ground and said: "Big brother, we are really passing by here, you don't have to be like this, we are really not bad people, you let the eldest sister come out, we will leave immediately." ”

Unexpectedly, this man was even more exaggerated, and said with a nose and tears: "Please, let us husband and wife go, we are all hiding here, why don't you let us go." I thought to myself: "It seems that this couple is also a person with a story, after all, it has nothing to do with us, even if they used to kill people and set fires, and there are still police, right?" It has nothing to do with us. Ao Xiang saw that the woman didn't come out, so he said: "If you don't come out yet, if you don't come out, we will really set it on fire." The man jumped under Ao Xiang, grabbed his feet and said, "Big brother, let us go." This sudden surprise startled Ao Xiang. Unexpectedly, the woman inside said: "Don't cry, I've hid enough, let them burn it, it won't kill me." ”

This woman still has some backbone, and her mouth is quite hard. But they really seem to have found the wrong person, and we are not here to trouble them, but this couple is really strange.
