Chapter 162: Into the Mountain
84_84070 This kind of question, naturally for a while, is naturally incomprehensible, in fact, in this complicated situation, I can sort these things out, it is good.
And next to him, Li Dong was still talking.
"Later, the child really woke up slowly, Lu Feng's predecessor said, this is the tree fetus wants to occupy the child's soul, in fact, the child did not die at that time, but the soul was trapped by the tree fetus, including the old man Ma later fell into a coma in the coffin, but also because the tree fetus tasted the sweetness, thanks to the time when the burial, the coffin was not used, otherwise no one would find out about this matter, over time, even the child will be controlled by the tree fetus yin spirit, become a monster, and when the time comes, it will become a big disaster."
Li Dong's story is finished here, his tone is full of admiration, and he said to us: "At that time, Lu Feng's predecessors subdued the tree fetus, and used the Vajra Demon Seal technique, with the talisman, to wipe out the tree fetus, and later the seniors passed the Vajra Demon Seal to me, and asked me to wait for someone in a certain year, a certain month, and a certain place, isn't it, I just waited for you?" ”
I listened to a dark smacking of my tongue, my magical uncle is so amazing, he is like a god.
Ansari listened silently beside him, and his face showed a rare look of reverence, and I asked again: "Later, the remaining piece of black wood, I'm afraid it was that coffin, and what happened to it?" Where did the man you said go? ”
Li Dong said: "The tree fetus was naturally taken away by Lu Feng's seniors, as for where he went later, I don't know, I originally wanted to learn more from him, but the next day, he didn't say goodbye." ”
After Li Dong finished speaking, there was a look of regret on his face, and I thought about it and asked: "When did you say this time, a few years ago?" ”
"Three years ago, I remember it very well."
"That old man Ma, how is it now?"
"The old man was very pitiful, although his son came back to life, he died the following year, and then his son was taken away by distant relatives, and there was no more whereabouts and no news from him."
"Oh," I nodded, and I had wanted to go to the old man's house to inquire about the news, but it seemed hopeless.
Ansari suddenly looked up at the sky and said to us: "Since this is the case, there is nothing to say, everyone is their own people, it is not early now, let's hurry up and find the place where Jin Jian was born." ”
I also said: "Yes, this Songshan Mountain is so vast, even if you know the approximate location, it will definitely not be easy to find, let's hurry up." ”
Li Dong nodded and waved at us: "Let's go." ”
As he spoke, he turned and turned to a deserted place beside the mountain road.
Looking up, the cliffs in front of you are majestic and steep, but in the distance, there is a trail that curves and coils through the mountains.
We followed, and it was past three o'clock in the afternoon, so we had to hurry, or we would have to climb the mountain again tomorrow if we couldn't find it before dark.
After walking down the trail for a while, the head was cut off in front of us, and some tourists came here, and when they saw that there was no path, they turned their heads, but the three of us were, as always, and went headlong into the mountain while no one was paying attention.
This must be noted, because although Songshan is a tourist attraction, but some of the steep mountains and no protective facilities in the place, it is very dangerous, just like Mount Tai, the development of the place is actually only a small part, most areas are set up warning signs, visitors are not allowed to walk around.
Luckily, we weren't noticed by the management, and after walking a little further down the hill to the gentler slope ahead, we turned around a corner, but further on, I noticed that the mountain was steeper, and when I looked around, there was no sign of any tourists at all.
Li Dong straightened his clothes and said to us: "Come on, this is the north side of Junji Peak, don't look at the dangerous terrain here, it won't take long to walk down here, there will be a gentle slope, I estimate that most of the Jin Jian was found there." ”
He made sense, Jin Jian was thrown into the valley from a high altitude back then, and the landing point must have been a relatively gentle place, but the mountains here are indeed difficult to walk, we all carry backpacks, and I also hold a tightly wrapped Tiangang sword in my hand, which is not conducive to climbing.
In the end, it took a bit of effort to climb down the cliff, which was almost at a 90-degree angle, and when the ground below had calmed down, I finally landed on the ground with both feet, looked up at the cliff above, and couldn't believe that I could really do it.
The next road is easy to walk, although the surrounding road is still very dangerous, but there are already traces to follow, don't worry about falling down and dying at any time.
In front of me is the valley, the surrounding slopes are full of lush trees, all over the ground, large and small, I can't help but think of Qu Xihuai's story, they put stones on the mountain, planted trees, now it seems, it should be in this area.
Li Dong pointed around and said: "In the past, this was a barren mountain, and the stones did not grow trees, if you want to say that you really have to thank the past generation, otherwise where did you come from this mountain scenery, but as soon as there are many trees, if you want to find the place where Jin Jian was born, I am afraid it will be even more difficult, unless you can let Qu Xihuai lead the way." ”
Ansari suddenly said: "If I were Qu Xihuai, I would not have gone up the mountain to lead the way, and even if I were asked to find it, I might not be able to find the stone back then." ”
I glanced at him, and suddenly my heart was in my heart, what he said was also very reasonable, this mountain is full of stones, not to mention that it was discovered by accident back then, and it didn't make any marks, even if it was deliberately marked, so many years have passed, the mountains have already changed greatly, such as soil erosion, rocks rolling down, plant growth, this kind of situation, will lead to a trace of zhì was erased.
In other words, in fact, the idea of finding the place where Jin Jian was born was originally unrealistic.
I suddenly figured this out, and said speechlessly: "So, we're looking for a needle in a haystack this time?" ”
Li Dong didn't speak, just looked at us, and Ansari said: "If you want to find that stone, you must be looking for a needle in a haystack, but I think that although we were instructed to find the place where Jin Jian was found, it may not necessarily mean that we must find the stone." ”
He always said half and left half when he spoke, but I thought about it carefully and understood, what he meant was that the meaning of the place of discovery may be just a general reference, such as Songshan, which can be said to be the place where Jin Jian was discovered, so we just need to reach Songshan to be correct.
It may also refer to the extreme peak, the altar of Dengfeng, the valley on the north side, and a certain mountain cliff, which may be the reference to the place where it was found.
I breathed a sigh of relief, as long as we didn't look for the rock, it would be easy, but there was also a problem, if we didn't look for the rock, what else could we find?
Without a destination and a reference, wouldn't that be a blind cat scratching a mouse?
We were also a little dazed for a while, and finally I simply waved my hand and said: "Forget it, we can't guess anything here, it's better to walk along this hillside, anyway, it's not early, where we go, as long as the direction and location are roughly correct, maybe there will be some unexpected discoveries, if nothing happens, let's go back and wait for Lao Pan to come." ”
Now in fact, there is only one way to do it, so the three of us began to walk forward, this is purely aimless, but there is one thing, Li Dong is from the mountains, he always has the direction, as long as he does not deviate from the north side of the Junji Peak, it is our search range.
Along the way, the three of us walked forward, always paying attention to the surrounding grass and trees, trees and stones, and sometimes looking up at the location of the Dengfeng Altar, imagining where the golden slip would fall. In fact, this is all subconscious guessing, after thousands of years of time, the initial landing point of Jin Jian will inevitably change a lot, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is looking for a needle in a haystack.
In the process, we also unexpectedly met a few people, but they were far away to dodge, at a glance I knew that it was not a tourist, I remembered what the staff of Songshan Academy had said before, and asked, this must be a treasure hunt on the mountain.
If it's an ordinary treasure hunter, it doesn't matter, I thought to myself, as long as it's not from the Green Snake gang, then everything will be fine.
I just walked like this for nearly an hour, and I didn't find anything abnormal, the surrounding mountains were open, and the view was majestic, and at the same time, seeing that the time was close to five o'clock, the sky was a little dark.
I was a little deflated, so I said to them, if you go like this, I'm afraid it will be in vain, it will be dark early in this mountain, and the mountains are deep and dense, so it is better to go out of the mountain as much as possible, go back to rest, and then make plans, it really can't work, and it doesn't hurt to come back tomorrow to find a circle.
Both of them agreed with me, but if you want to return from here, you have to walk for a long time, Li Dong said, from here forward, and then over a hillside, there is a path that used to be a medicine picker into the mountain, although it has long been deserted, but it is a shortcut down the mountain, when he was young, he had walked with the old people several times.
Ansari and I naturally agreed, so we followed him as we turned around and walked down the hill.
It's just that this time the mountain road is getting narrower and narrower, and the more you go, the more rugged it is, but I know that all shortcuts must be narrow and rugged, otherwise they can't be called shortcuts.
After walking for more than 20 minutes, the front became more and more desolate, even the trees were getting fewer and fewer, and there were rocks everywhere, and we often had to climb the cliff to climb up, and the sun in the distance had gradually set on the other side of the mountain, and from our position, we could only see the sky full of red clouds.
I was a little anxious, and the road could only be more difficult to walk after dark, so I asked Li Dong where the trail was and how long it would take to reach it.
Li Dong looked up and looked around, and was looking in one direction to answer, when he suddenly glanced at his eyes and exclaimed, "Hey, how can there be a mountain road here?" ”
When I heard this, I followed his gaze, and saw that between the two cliffs in front of us, there was indeed a gentle upward mountain road, which appeared very abruptly, about dozens of meters long, but the light was dim, and I couldn't see too far.
Who built this endless road?
Ansari was the first to jump over and said, "Let's go, go over and have a look." ”。
