The four-eared macaque overhead and under the canopy, in the small space, gave people invisible pressure, made me feel very heavy on my shoulders, and my chest was uncomfortable, so I wanted to do my best to take everyone away from this earth cave that seemed to hide danger.

Coincidentally, there was also a low hole in this earthen room that had been refilled, and everyone quickly dug through the passage with a Luoyang shovel and came to another earthen room.

The originally closed space is still full of a strong earthy smell.

However, the walls of the earthen chamber here are not decorated with inlaid stone totems, but in the center of the earthen chamber, there is a half-meter-high circular stone pier, about three feet in diameter, on which several black stone statues are placed.

Curious, I approached the stone pier and found that the bottom of the black stone pier was closely connected to the dirt below, as if it had grown on the ground. The nine black stone statues resting on the stone pier are connected to the stone pier, as if they grew out of the stone pier.

I looked closely at the stone statue on the stone pier, which was about two feet tall and looked very strange, like a monster made of trees, with slender pointed ears, bulging monkey gills, wide mouth and thick lips and fangs, a wide and high forehead, and two small sharp horns like stalagmites. The appearance is very ugly, giving people a very disgusting feeling.

The fat man walked up to me. Looking at the swarthy stone statue, he asked me, "What is this ugly thing?" Stone-made fine? After saying that, he poked it with his hand curiously.

I didn't expect the result. The fat man just touched his finger lightly, and the swarthy stone statue fell on the body of the other stone statues. I always thought that the black stone statue was connected to the black stone pier underneath, but I didn't expect that if I touched it, the stone statue would fall.

The fat man picked up the fallen black stone statue without any scruples, held it in both hands and looked at it closely, and then said to me, "This thing doesn't seem to be a stone." ”

The rest of the Western Expedition team also gathered around curiously, and I took the swarthy stone statue from the fat man's hand and looked at it repeatedly. Then he crouched down and took a closer look at the black stone pier. Originally, I thought that the stone pier and the stone statue were a piece of obsidian or other jade connected into one, and then I carved the top of the stone pillar pier into a strange shape.

But the spirit stone statue held by my finger is very light, not the weight of jade, and I feel that it should be "coal spirit".

"Coal Essence", also known as "Jet", is a high-grade coal stone with bright asphalt, metallic luster, and dark color. It can be used to make zuò arts and crafts, carving crafts and decorations, and "amber" is the same family, which is a very precious craft material. Coal essence is the essence of coal, and it is light in weight. It is a low-density, combustible organic rock that was formed three million years ago. It is very rare and rare in the world, and it is a specialty of our country.

Necklaces and bracelets made of coal. If you often play with it in your hand, it will become more and more shiny. Players call it a "plate", and the longer the disc is played, the more rounded and smooth it becomes.

I had the privilege of seeing a polyhedral ancient jet seal, on which each side was engraved with the Yin script of regular script, and the volume was the size of a fist. Jet sculptures are not uncommon, but because of the different times of entering the soil and the mouth of the pit, some will form a color of Qin and a transitional color, and this kind of coal essence is a high ancient coal essence.

The stone piers and spirit statues in the earthen room in front of you should be coal spirits, but the luster is colorful and dazzling, and the huge volume is really rare. What's even more strange is that I used a shovel to dig into the dirt around the coal mound, digging three feet deep, and found that I couldn't see the bottom of the coal spirit.

The fat man's curiosity was very strong, and he had to dig down to see, but he and the dude were sweating profusely, feeling that they were about to dig through the center of the earth, and still did not see the bottom of the coal spirit, as if the coal spirit stone pillar grew from the ground.

As we all know, the oil-rich hard trees in the ancient forests of the coal essence system, such as pine and cypress, birch and other trees, were washed to low-lying places by floods, and then passed through the earth's crustal changes, under the mud action of high temperature and underground pressure, making them become a kind of black crystals.

But the volume of the columnar coal essence at the moment is far beyond the height of a tree, as if it has grown from the depths of the earth.

The fat man was so tired and sweating profusely that he sat on the ground, looked at the stone pillar coal spirit in front of him and sighed: "This thing is a specialty in my hometown, but I have never seen such a large volume of coal essence." Lao Zheng, how about we cut off a section? This thing is made of a handle piece to play with, it will get brighter and brighter, and the luster is very beautiful. ”

I looked at the stone pillar in front of me, and then looked at the spirit statues on it, and suddenly understood why there were these strange sculptures on it, and the meaning may be that these black spirits are the image of coal spirits becoming immortals. When I heard that the fat man was going to chop some coal essence to make ornaments, I couldn't help but be a little tempted. I remember when I was a child, there was a landlord surnamed Chen who moved from other places in the village, because the story of the white-haired girl was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people at that time, and everyone didn't like the landlord surnamed Chen from outside, so they gave him a nickname "Huang Shiren", and over time, everyone forgot his original surname and first name.

I heard that Huang Shiren's family property was lost by his gambling, and the last remaining valuable object was only a coal spirit statue of Maitreya Buddha with a big belly, and he fled to our village to settle down in order to keep this coal spirit statue. Huang Shiren touched and wiped the statue of Maitreya Buddha every day, and chattered to the people in the village tirelessly said: In his family's ancestors, there were high-ranking officials, and several generations were rich merchants, all thanks to the blessing of this coal spirit statue, as long as this statue is still there, his family will be revitalized again in the future.

He also told everyone that the reason why his family prospered was because of the manifestation of the coal spirit Maitreya Buddha, and that he was a rough benzene long-term worker who helped rich families pick up dung in his great-great-great-grandfather's generation. One day, I saw a pheasant in the wilderness and thought about opening the meat. And he chased him into the woods. It turned out that the pheasant was flapping its wings and pecking at the head of a white snake with its sharp beak. The white snake's head was pecked through a large hole, and the blood flowed profusely.

Huang Shiren's great-grandfather saw the situation. So he killed the colorful feather pheasant with a dung pole, and then tied the pheasant's legs with hemp rope, hung upside down on the pole, and prepared to go home and have a full meal. But when he saw the white snake bleeding, he felt pity and found that there was a herb under his feet to stop bleeding, so he pulled it up, put it in his mouth and chewed it vigorously, and then smeared it on the head of the white snake. Then he took off the shoulder of the rag that was already unclothed, pulled it into strips of cloth, and bandaged the head of the white snake.

Huang Shiren's great ancestor's good deeds turned out to be rewarded, and the white snake, which had been tightly coiled around his body when he was attacked, suddenly slowly soothed his body, revealing a black statue of Maitreya Buddha under his body.

White arched the black coal spirit Maitreya Buddha statue with his head to the vicinity of Huang Shiren's great-grandfather, who thought he had saved the White Snake Immortal. The immortals know how to repay their kindness, so they will give him a god statue. He immediately knelt on the ground in gratitude, and prostrated that he would worship the idol of the god from generation to generation, and when he raised his head. The White Snake is gone. Huang Shiren's great-ancestor saw that the white snake was like a dragon, and he was more and more convinced that he had met a fairy and was shirtless. Happily hugging the coal spirit, it seems to be going home.

Not to mention, since Huang Shiren's great-ancestor got this black coal spirit statue. I really started to get lucky, I went out to pick up money. Ploughing the ground can also dig up gold, and soon he will marry and have children. The kind-hearted great-grandfather of Huang Shiren, when he went into the mountains to cut firewood, found a mine, and after entering, he found that it was a coal mine, so he gathered the people in the village to mine together, hoping to make the whole village rich.

The big family that hired Huang Shiren's great-grandfather as a long-term laborer was a county official, and when he knew about his coal mining, he came to grab the coal mine. However, he took the officials into the mountains many times, but he repeatedly couldn't find the mines, so he had to arrest Huang Shiren's great-ancestor to coerce and lure him, and forced him to take the county officials and officials to mine. As a result, the mine was found, but in the process of mining, the mine collapsed, and everyone was buried alive, and in the end, only Huang Shiren's great-grandfather survived, and the mine was able to continue mining. Huang Shiren's great-ancestor made a fortune by coal, he felt that he was in great trouble and immortal, and was blessed by the white snake fairy, so he never forgot the chance encounter in the woods, and often went to the woods to visit the white snake, but he could not see it again, so he had to worship the coal spirit statue of Maitreya Buddha very sincerely.

Some people believe that because coal essence is the essence of coal, it is the coal spirit statue of Maitreya Buddha, and blessed Huang Shiren's great-ancestor who discovered the coal mine. Therefore, Huang Shiren firmly believes that the black coal spirit Maitreya Buddha can make his family rise again.

Huang Shiren's ancestral experience of making a fortune sounds like a folk fairy story, although the people in the village are not convinced. But they are all very fond of the shining light, smiling pot-bellied Maitreya Buddha coal spirit statue, no matter how old the men, women and children in the village will often take advantage of Huang Shiren's inattention, sneak a handful of coal spirit statue, want to be blessed.

At that time, the fat man and I were only in our teens, and we went to steal the round belly of the big-bellied Maitreya Buddha every day, and several times we almost couldn't help but steal it home to decorate. At that time, we were convinced of the story told by Huang Shiren, and we were looking forward to being fed and clothed after our parents died, so we went to the coal spirit statue every day to get blessed.

Recalling the past, it's embarrassing! I also had an inexplicable impulse, so I nodded in agreement with the fat man's suggestion. But tell him not to destroy the statue, just smash a small piece from the stone pier below, and don't be greedy, too big and incapacitated.

When the fat man saw me nodding, he and the two of them immediately began to move, preparing to remove the spirit stone statue on the stone pier, so as not to get in the way and be damaged.

As a result, one of them hugged a black spirit stone statue, and with all their strength, they couldn't move the coal spirit stone statue down. The reason is not that the spirit stone statue has become heavier, but that the coal spirit stone statue suddenly seems to have taken root and grown on top of the stone pier.
