Chapter 0048: Ancient Emperor Temple
In Yunnan, the difference in temperature change is not very large, for the climate of other provinces, it can be regarded as four seasons like spring, coupled with the magical power of the strange slope, we can not feel the slightest fatigue when we climb up the mountain road, and the more we climb, the more energetic.
We climbed from the beginning of the morning to noon, seeing the main peak of the camel mountain in sight, but we couldn't climb up, and we went farther and farther.
Sledgehammer saw Ah Gong stop, he was also depressed and leaned on a big tree, sighed sullenly, I have to say that this strange slope is really embarrassing, after a while, I heard Sledgehammer say for a while: "Ah Gong, did you say that we ran into a ghost hitting the wall?" I've got to figure out a way. ”
Ah Gong didn't speak, and the fat man scratched his head for a while, and after thinking of a reason, he finally linked his strange phenomenon with ghosts, although Ah Gong said it several times, there were no ghosts and ghosts within the range of the strange slope.
"If you two quarrel again, believe it or not, I'll throw you down the mountain," Ah Gong said irritably, then looked at me and said, "Do you have anything to say?" ”
After Ah Gong's question, I slowly withdrew my gaze looking at the bottom of the camel mountain, and after a while, I successively proposed possible factors such as "gravity anomaly", "staggered thinking", and "weightlessness", without linking them with "ghosts and ghosts" in the slightest.
After listening to my speculation, Ah Gong fell into deep thought, obviously the concept I put forward was much more normal than that of the two of them. However, this is a hard injury for the sledgehammer who doesn't know a few big words on the side, and it is also the most fatal, so I saw him waving his hand blindly, "What is this?" You intellectuals are useless. ”
I almost lost my breath, and I hurriedly looked at the fat man with a plea for help, hoping that he could stand up and say something for himself, but unfortunately he couldn't figure out what I was talking about. I heard him mutter, "Why don't you say that we all have eye problems." ”
Although the voice of the fat man was low, it still couldn't escape my ears, and I couldn't help but be shocked, and secretly said that I was reasonable, and a word flashed in my mind, "Parallax illusion?".
The subtle changes in my face and body could not escape the fiery eyes of my grandfather, and he saw that there seemed to be something wrong with me, so he hurriedly came to me and asked in a low voice, "What?" Do you have the answer? ”
I nodded lightly, but still a little uncertain, and said, "I thought of a possibility, but it wasn't necessarily right, and I couldn't tell until I tried it." ”
"What is possible? You should say it quickly," the fat man hurriedly said when he saw this, and the expression on his face was extremely urgent. The sledgehammer on the side was also full of anticipation, wanting to hear what I had to say.
I saw that everyone was so eager, although the ideas in my heart were still a little unfounded and could not be answered, but in the end, I couldn't stand the urging of the two fat men, so I had to say it in one go, regardless of whether they could digest it for a while, anyway, it was such a reason.
In my story, this means that the human eye will have visual errors due to the different references around it, in other words, there is an illusion in layman's terms.
For example, when a person is sitting in a car, when the car is stopping, if there is a car passing by, we will naturally use him as a reference, so that we feel that the car we are sitting in is moving in the opposite direction. And the mountain in front of us is the key to the strange slope, that is, the reference point for all of us now.
Because there is no reference to the horizon around us, except for a distant mountain and some green bushes, we habitually use the mountain in front of us as a reference. However, the mountain in front of us is getting lower and lower from west to east, and the distance from the mountain road is getting closer and closer, giving the illusion that the mountain road that is originally going down gives the illusion that it is getting more and more upward.
Sledgehammer was completely dumbfounded after listening to it, I don't know what kind of heavenly book I read? The fat man on the side smashed his mouth and fell silent for a while.
Seeing that none of them spoke, I said again: "Actually, to put it bluntly, we went in the opposite direction, and the way down the mountain was taken by us as the way up the mountain. ”
"So, what do you mean... Let's all go down? The sledgehammer finally turned the corner, and asked me in confusion, to which I could only nod my head, for I was already dry at this point.
At this time, Ah Gong spoke, and said in a deep voice: "I can only be a dead horse as a live horse doctor, so I will do what Yishou said and go down the mountain." ”
Ah Gong said, the peach sword in his hand began to go downhill with difficulty, and the sledgehammer finally followed with a sigh, I saw that the fat man was still stunned, and couldn't help patting him on the shoulder, and said, "If you don't leave, it's going to be dark." ”
Saying that, I went down the slope with difficulty, only to hear the dissatisfied voice of the fat man in the back, "Damn, just your bad idea, I can't climb the mountain when the time comes, I'm asking you..."
This time, the four of us did not climb the mountain as easily and fast as when we went up the mountain before, but endured all the hardships, which foot did not grind out a few bubbles, and finally climbed the main peak of this camel mountain before the sun set.
"Damn, I finally climbed up, his grandmother almost didn't take half of my sea fat man's life," on a turquoise grassy soil, the sea fat man lay on the ground and looked like he was going to die, muttering in his mouth.
At this time, the three of us are no better than the fat man of the sea, especially Ah Gong is even more prostration, he can't even sit up, obviously he is old, no matter how good he usually is, people can never disobey the old.
In the process of resting, Sledgehammer crawled to my side tiredly, looking me up and down for a while, I saw Sledgehammer mysteriously crawling beside me and lying down, I thought he had something? I didn't expect his words in the next moment, which really choked me up.
"Yishou, I really didn't see it, I was blinded by you."
I smiled bitterly, and I didn't bother to compete with his ignorance, and just wanted to lie down with my eyes closed for a while, when the fat man smashed me with his elbow again, and said with a smile: "Yishou, why do you say that there is a strange slope in this camel mountain?" ”
The feelings of these two people are on me, helpless I had to say weakly for a while: "This is very simple, the climate of Yunnan is more thunderstorm season, thunderstorms will lose the mountain of Camel Mountain, forming an irregular landslide, which will make people on the mountain have a parallax illusion, and strange slopes will naturally appear." ”
The four of us rested for a while, until the sun completely disappeared on the horizon, then we all stood up weakly, according to Ah Gong's words, there are more evils to go out for a walk at night, and find the ancient emperor temple that has disappeared in people's eyes for decades before dark.
Speaking of the Ancient Emperor Temple, I and Hai Fatzi only know a little bit in the mouth of Uncle Liang, only know that it was built on the main peak of this camel mountain very early, and it was very popular with the residents under the mountain when there was no strange slope before, and it also attracted a lot of Chinese and foreign tourists.
Since the incident of the strange slope, coupled with the frequent ghosts in the mountain, it has naturally declined and disappeared into the world of people.
As for Ah Gong and the mysterious organization Long Yao, why did they do everything possible to come here to find the ancient emperor temple that had long been abandoned? What is the secret behind this? Is it looking for treasure or something else? I don't know, either.
The peak of Camel Mountain is not very big, although the trees are dense, but it is still quite easy to find a desolate ancient temple, seeing that the ancient emperor temple is in front of him, Ah Gong suddenly grabbed us, and his face instantly gloomy.
"Ah Gong, what are you?" I looked suspicious, wondering why Ah Gong had suddenly become so weird. I only heard him say in a faint voice: "Someone has taken the lead." ”
As soon as the three of us heard this, our bodies shook suddenly, and looking through the hazy night under the dawn, there were indeed two people standing lazily in front of the gate of the ancient emperor's temple like a giant beast, both dressed in black, and it was difficult to see clearly in the hazy night.
"Ah Gong, who are they? How did you get up? The fat man was very surprised and asked the grandfather who was frowning, but at this time, the grandfather did not tower him, but directly snorted at the sledgehammer and motioned him to solve it.
The sledgehammer was already gearing up, and when he saw Ah Gong signaling to him, he nodded, and the cat bent into the grass on the side, causing a slight rustling sound, and then disappeared.
When the sledgehammer appeared again, it had already quietly touched the two people stationed in front of the ancient emperor temple not far away, with the help of the dim moonlight I could clearly see that his movements were so agile, like a spirit monkey without making a sound.
At this time, the fat man approached me quietly and said in a very low voice: "I really can't see that he is a practitioner, so I have to be careful in the future." ”
I nodded lightly and did not speak, and at that moment I saw the sledgehammer come up to the eaves at some point, and with a golden dagger in his mouth, he suddenly slammed an upside-down golden hook in front of the eyes of one of the lazy sentrymen, and even the sound did not make a single stab to him.
After a knife killed a person, the sledgehammer jumped and quietly fell to the stone ground in front of the ancient emperor's temple, at this time, the person who was slightly napping on the other side seemed to notice something, just wanted to squint and look at it, only to feel that it was dark in front of him, a huge figure clamped his entire head in the armpit, and then flew and twisted, and I could feel the crisp click sound from the person's neck from a long distance.
Seeing that the sledgehammer shot was quite clean, Ah Gong waved his hand at the stunned two of us and said, "Let's go." ”
When the two of us arrived at the temple gate of the Ancient Emperor Temple, Ah Gong and Sledgehammer were sneakily looking at the candlelight of the Ancient Emperor Temple, and I hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Ah Gong, who are these people?" What's going on inside? ”
Before Ah Gong could speak, he heard Sledgehammer say first: "These are Long Yao's people, only these two people have been found so far, and the others don't know where they went," Sledgehammer said, and stretched out his hand to point to the two corpses lying on the ground on the side, without any pity in his eyes.
When the fat man heard that Long Yao's people were here, he became a little unnatural, and said in a trembling whisper: "Since Long Yao's people are here, I think... Let's withdraw it to save some unnecessary trouble. ”
"What's wrong with Long Yao's people, I, Tao Yuangong, have never been afraid of anyone," Ah Gong said sharply, holding a peachwood sword in one hand and a yin-yang mirror in the other.
Seeing Ah Gong and Sledgehammer walking towards the temple gate, the fat man was obviously hesitant, and I couldn't help but say out loud: "You and I came to this camel mountain on a whim, there is no need to pay the price for this invisible benefit, it's too late to quit now." ”
The fat man was silent for a moment, as if he was making a choice, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "It's all here, if you can't even figure out what Ah Gong and the others want to get in every possible way, then it's better to die." ”
After listening to it, I felt that what the fat man said was not unreasonable, and in the end, I gritted my teeth ruthlessly and followed the fat man.
