Approaching this mountain range, the ears rumbled, and a huge stream of water poured down, and countless droplets of water seemed to freeze in the air. The vegetation here is dense, the tree cover covers the sky and the sun, and the mountain spring that comes down from the height is stirred at the bottom of the cliff, forming a misty water vapor, and the green mountains and fresh water and soil are yellow cliffs, forming a transcendent fairyland scene.

Everyone was amazed, and everyone walked and played with the surrounding scenery, completely amazed at how nature had created it.

Zhao said a word to me, because the waterfall was so loud that I couldn't hear it clearly. He said loudly again: "Rice, maybe there are really immortals living here." ”

When I got closer, I saw that the cliff seemed to be split from top to bottom by a celestial axe, and there was a deep road in the middle of the cliff that led to the end of the valley. To be sure, there are traces of people visiting here, as evidenced by the broken plank paths on the cliffs. Gan Jiu told us that there is abundant aura here, the feng shui is treacherous, and the Shuangxian Temple is very likely to be hidden in this place, and those plank roads should be built by ancient medicine pickers to facilitate cliff climbing.

Strange to say, walking along the mountain road sandwiched between the cliffs, the sound of the waterfall outside is immediately isolated from the eardrums. The road looks like a thin line from a distance, but it's actually quite wide when you walk in, and it's no problem to run two heavy trucks side by side. And we also found that there were traces of artificial stone paving on the ground, and everyone was full of interest, feeling that it was nothing to work hard for so many days and experience so many facts, and the destination was in sight.

Looking at these artificial traces, I suddenly had doubts and said, "Brother Jiu, did this Twin Immortal Temple build here a long time ago and has not been moved?" ”

Gan Jiu touched his chin: "To be honest, I don't know. The information in hand is basically false. The concept of double immortals has indeed been recorded in ancient books, but it is all specious in a few words. I knew that the environment here was indeed suitable for alchemy, and it was a dream place for people in the Dan Dao. Our aim is not to trace the history of the Twin Immortals, but to find it. ”

"Yes, don't delay, I've been in this mountain enough." Brother Dong licked his chapped lips, he was really embarrassed these days, he didn't have drugs to play with women, and he had mushrooms on his body.

We walked non-stop along the mountain road, and after most of the day's work, we finally reached the end, and everyone was surprised as soon as we came out of the mountain pass.

The valley is surrounded on all sides by tall cliffs, which enclose the place into a tube, forming a completely enclosed space. In the middle is a clearing full of weeds and shrubs, surrounded by high cliffs, this place is like a natural deep well, looking up at the sky, the sky is blue, the size of a basin.

Da Gang's sharp eyes told us to look at the cliffs.

I saw that on the west cliff wall, there is an artificial plank road, which is in tatters, winding up along the mountain cliff, leading to a height of more than ten meters, where the ghost branches are overgrown with weeds, as if there is a deep hole in the dark.

Gan Jiu beckoned us to rush over and stepped on the grass to come to the cliff. Looking at this plank road, I secretly complained in my heart. The plank road is staggered and attached to the cliff, it is old, it has long been damaged, and some of it has a slightly dangling wooden plank hanging on it, not to mention the five of us big men, even a child is estimated to be able to step on it with one foot.

Stepping on this thing, climbing all the way to the height of six or seven stories, it was really a joke with life.

Gan Jiu carried the corpse of Chen Daochang on his back, and asked us to turn out the climbing rope and hand it to him, and he walked first in the group. At every point, he would nail triangular buckles to the cliffs. Brother Dong watched Gan Jiu holding on to the cliff and slowly climbing up the plank road, and he whispered to us: "Things are getting more and more interesting, don't be busy killing him, I have a hunch that I may find something very rare in that Taoist temple." ”

We held on to the nailed rope and carefully stepped on the plank road to go up. I don't know who built these plank roads, they are unexpectedly strong, and they seem to be narrow and short planks, but they have great bearing capacity. Several people carried thick bags, and after stepping on them, they still did not move. Soon came to the end of the boardwalk.

When we climbed here, it was getting dark, and it was an open field on a high cliff, and there was a large platform with a neat order, as if someone had cleaned it. Behind the platform is the cave of the Hesse Forest.

We threw all our backpacks on the ground, and sat on our backpacks to watch the sunset on the horizon, the mountains towering in the dim light, and the misty white mist rising from the valley under the cliffs, like a peach blossom paradise.

Such a splendid scenery only lasted for a short time, and it was quickly getting dark, so Gan Jiu asked us to put our backpacks on our backs, take out our flashlights, and start to enter the cave.

Walking into the cave, the walls of the cave are full of traces of manual shoveling. I don't know how much manpower was spent on the construction of this place, but it was definitely chiseled out by force. After walking a short distance, strange words began to appear on the mountain wall. The font is written according to the ancient book, from the top at least from right to left to write, the glyph of each word is like flowing water, twisted and curved, and I can't understand the meaning at all.

We stood in front of the cave wall, shining back and forth with flashlights.

"This is the ancient book." Gan Jiu said. The pit is double dead.

"What is written?" Brother Dong asked.

Gan Jiu shone it with a flashlight and read slowly: "The beginning will be the golden tripod into three immortals, the water will moisturize the fire, the fire will be dawned, and the snow will be full of water...... There are more later, so it is not suitable for you to listen to. ”

"What do you mean?" Da Gang asked.

Gan Jiu said: "There are two categories of red and white in the pill, this is the alchemy process song of the white pill, which is about how to alchemy. We are not mistaken, this should be the Twin Immortals. ”

He beckoned us to continue walking. After walking for a short time, suddenly there was an open space in front of them, and several flashlights shone past, and everyone was shocked.

In the depths of the cave, there was a dusty ancient Taoist temple. This Taoist temple is like a cultural relic that has just been unearthed, it looks gray, and the building exposes a dark gray that has been precipitated by the years, and the style is strangely ancient. There is an ancient plaque on the gate of the Taoist temple, and from top to bottom there are three big characters written in Lishu: Shuangxian Temple.

We all looked stupid, I didn't blink my eyes, I really didn't expect that the legendary Twin Immortals Temple was actually hidden in a cave on the cliff.

Gan Jiu wiped his sweat, his eyes were fanatical, and he walked over slowly. This Taoist temple has been sealed for a long time, and it is still well preserved, like an old photo with years. The gate was tightly closed, giving people a strong feeling that the Taoist priests inside seemed to be in retreat and practicing, and the Taoist temple was not deserted.

Gan Jiu pushed the crescent gate open, vibrating and falling from the beam, and the sound of emptiness echoed faintly in the temple. This kind of environment makes me a little apprehensive and hairy.

Seeing him enter, the four of us were not idle, and hurried over. Inside the gate is a courtyard, and in the middle of the empty courtyard is a three-legged bronze tripod. This statue is one meter seven or eight tall, about the same height as an adult man, and the body is thick and big, which is really domineering.

As soon as I saw this statue, I was stupid and almost suffocated. Because of this tripod, I have seen it before!

Just a few days ago, I once entered the ashram space built by the Holy Aunt, and in the private rattan house, I saw her use this kind of Ding alchemy!

At this time, Gan Jiu circled around the bronze tripod twice, and sighed in admiration: "I can't see such a good thing now." ”

We asked what it was.

Gan Jiudao: "This thing is called Bagua Ding, which is a special instrument for alchemy, and it opens a hole in the body of the Ding in the style of Bagua Hexagram, and each Hexagram has a total of 36 holes. These holes enhance ventilation and maintain a balanced temperature. This kind of tripod generally cannot be used, and will only be used when refining special things. ”

"What's special?" Da Gang asked.

Gan Jiu crooked his mouth and smiled: "There will be a chance for you to see it." ”

Falling along the courtyard, it is the first dà hall. The light in the hall is very poor, very dim, the ground, the desk, the shrine is covered with thick dust, the middle of the hall enshrines a statue of a god, it is the Taishang Laojun. Lao Jun is dusty, white beard and beard, but no one has taken care of it for a long time, there is too much dust, and the primary color can hardly be seen.

There are a few books on the shrine, which are neatly organized. Gan Jiu asked us not to act rashly, he picked up the book and flipped through it. The pages of these ancient books are yellow, strung together by thin threads, and we use a flashlight to illuminate them, and we can vaguely see that the book is densely packed with flying brush characters, in fact, Gan Jiuda doesn't have to be so careful, even if he shows us can't understand it.

After Gan Jiu turned it over, he put Daochang Chen's body on the shrine. He didn't have a backpack, just a fanny pack that was always attached to the waistband of his trousers. He opened his fanny pack and swept away the ancient books and stuffed them all in.

None of us spoke, Brother Dong licked his lips, his eyes were a little unkind. This Gan Jiu is really a mallet when we are a mallet, and we didn't explain a word, and took everything away, so we also have a right to know.

There is also a clay pot on the shrine, Gan Jiu picked it up and blew the floating ash on it, the mouth of the jar was sealed with layers of yellow charms, he directly tore the charm open, and shone it in with a flashlight.

After a moment, he tilted the jar slightly to its side, and rolled out round white pills from it. Gan Jiu put the jar right, picked up a pill and carefully pinched it in his hand, looked at it carefully, didn't say a word, and looked at it repeatedly for a long time. Looking at it, his facial muscles suddenly twitched, and he laughed out loud.

Along the way, Gan Jiu is a person who is not smiling and has a very yin temperament, and I have never seen him lose his temper like now. The more he laughed, the louder it became, and his voice was sharp and eerie, echoing in the dark Taoist temple, and I had goosebumps all over my body when I heard it.

Da Gang said in horror: "Damn, he won't fall for evil, right?" ”

Gan Jiu suddenly stopped laughing, looked at me, and hooked his fingers: "Luo Dao, come here." ”

I didn't know what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd, so I walked over slowly. He pinched the pill and said, "Do you know what this is?" ”

I shook my head: "I don't know. ”

After saying this, I suddenly felt a chill in my heart. Damn, this kid won't let me take it just to test the medicinal properties, right?!

The thought of this makes me feel cold all over my body, and my teeth are fighting. This thing can't be eaten indiscriminately, how many years has it been sealed, it has already stinked fuckingly, who knows if it is poisonous.

Gan Jiu smiled: "I sue you what is this." The next second, his actions shocked everyone present.

He struck like lightning, and suddenly pulled out a short knife from his waist and stabbed it with a wave of his hand. The speed of the knife was so fast that I didn't have time to react, I saw a flash of cold light, and a knife pierced my chest! Straight through my chest, the tip of the knife poking out of my back.

I fell to my knees with weak legs and looked at him in disbelief. My throat was sweet, and I opened my mouth suddenly, spurting a large stream of blood at the ground.
