Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Mountain Trail
The fat brother was stunned by my question, didn't react, and asked me tentatively: "Someone climbs the iron chain?" How did I not know? Who? â
I glanced at the fat brother and said, "Do I ask you or do you ask me?" â
It seems that the behavior of the spirit can only express the thought activities at the time, and it does not mean that this is the case, and when the spirit returns to its place, the memory of the zĂ i in the form of the spirit cannot be recorded by the brain.
But I'm really curious, why does the fat brother's spirit climb the iron chain? And I didn't see the iron chain at that time, I just saw the movements of the fat brother's spirit, and he was pulling something up, and it was the fat brother's spirit who sued me by himself. Did he feel tired from climbing the mountain and needed a boost to reduce fatigue? It's all a state he imagined out of thin air?
I shook my head and said to the fat brother with a smile: "Forget it, it's nothing, as long as you live, I guess you are asleep and dreaming, talking about dreams." â
Su Rina immediately discovered the loophole in my words, and asked with a puzzled expression, "Why didn't I hear it?" The fat guy didn't talk in his dreams. After speaking, he looked at the crowd.
The others also nodded in confirmation, and Yan Qiu touched the door of my head and asked, "Are you too tired?" Hallucinations? â
I brushed Yan Qiu's hand away and pretended to be mysterious: "What do you understand?" I guess my spells are so strong that I can sense things you don't know. â
Yan Qiu said dissatisfiedly: "Say you're fat, you're still panting, can you stop blowing it?" I see that the fat brother woke up on his own, and you are just talking nonsense there, when we are so easy to fool? â
If you don't believe it, it just saves me from making up stories, and since she thinks that the fat brother woke up by herself, I am also happy and relaxed. So I made an expression that the lie was revealed, and I smiled embarrassedly and stuck out my tongue.
Easy to fool through the test is proud, the fat brother won't give me a long face, he frowned, scratched the back of his head, and looked at the sky as if he was thinking about something. After thinking for a while, the fat brother said, "Don't say it, I seem to be dreaming." â
Jiang Li asked: "Have you dreamed of climbing iron chains with others?" â
The fat brother thought about it again and said, "No, I remembered, when I fell asleep just now, I did have a dream." In my dream, I saw more than a dozen people along the way, all of whom were from the Qing Dynasty and wore big braids. They were very fast, and with the help of an iron chain fixed to the ground, they climbed to the top of the mountain, and the iron chain was long, and it was in that position. As he spoke, the fat brother pointed to the place where he said there was an iron chain.
We followed him forward, there was no clue, it was still a wood, it was still a hillside, there was nothing out of the ordinary.
I asked the fat guy, "Do you know who those people are?" What are the features? â
The fat brother said: "It's not very specialistic, it's just that it has braids." While chattering, I also recalled. Suddenly, the fat brother's eyes widened, looking at me, and he only opened his mouth and couldn't speak.
I knew that the fat guy must have remembered something, and it was enough to surprise him, maybe it had something to do with me, otherwise he wouldn't have looked at me with this expression. The last time he looked at me like this, it was because I quietly told him about me and Yan Qiu.
I hurriedly asked the fat brother: "If you have anything, just say it, don't play dumb riddles." â
The fat brother closed his eyes and settled down, and then said in a mysterious tone: "That group of Qing Dynasty people, you are the leader." â
I was in a hurry, such a strange thing, he did his best to me, I was not happy to say: "I'm starting to talk nonsense again, am I handsome with big braids?" â
The fat brother was a little confused, nodded seriously and said, "Really, the one who leads is you, I can't be mistaken." â
The unicorn immediately moved, and he grabbed my arm, and although it seemed natural on the surface, I could feel that his hand was tense and could be strained at any time. The unicorn was slightly tentative, and asked with a fake smile: "Zhanxiao, do you have any special identity?" â
I flicked my arm quickly, but I still didn't shake off the one-horned arm, but said, "I have a lot of identity, which one do you know?" Which one do you think is special? â
Yan Qiu saw that the atmosphere of the conversation between me and the unicorn was not right, so she immediately came over and persuaded her: "Isn't it just a dream?" Are you serious? The fat brother dreamed of Zhanxiao, it's normal. If he dreams of a woman, it is not normal, go back to his wife, clean him up. â
Only then did the others react, we had been discussing the fat brother's dream, and the unicorn also let go of the hand holding me, sorry to explain that he was too nervous.
I know that this is not just a dream, although others don't care, but I am haunted, why is it inconvenient to ask more now, more things are better than less things.
However, Jiang Li also seemed to be concerned about this matter, she looked at the surrounding environment carefully, and then said very seriously: "No, I'm afraid that this dream of fat brother has a future." â
I casually asked, "What's the matter?" His dreams are bizarre, and it is normal to dream of an old sow hanging. â
Jiang Li shook his head, followed the position we were, pointed in the direction of the top of the mountain, and said, "Didn't you notice? There's a way to this. â
I followed the direction she pointed out and took a closer look, not to mention, it seems that there really is a way. In the scattered wild forest, there is a path about one meter wide, although no one has stepped on it, but this row is straight, and no plants grow. This is obviously artificially developed, and it is impossible for all plants to be long around this straight line, only this meter wide and no grass grows.
We walked over and stood in the middle of the trail, with a clear view up and down the distance, leading to the top of the high mountain, with no end in sight.
The focus became on analyzing the origin of the trail, each with a set of explanations. Most of them believe that this is the path up the mountain opened up by the ancients, and when the fat brother fell asleep, he saw the use of the scene at that time due to some kind of natural energy residue.
Yan Qiu is unique, she thinks, because there is a straight vein under this mountain, and where there is a mine, plants cannot take root and sprout. But Yan Qiu's theory was quickly denied by us, how can there be such a straight vein in the world? Yes, it is also buried manually, it is impossible to do, and there are standard specifications for width and direction.
In order to prove that the truth is still in the hands of the majority, we begin to look for traces of artificiality on this path.
If it is really as shown in the fat brother's dream, then it will be difficult to find evidence, and the road opened by the Qing Dynasty is a bit difficult for us to prove. But what we never expected was that the unicorn actually found evidence.
It was a piece of iron buried in the soil, and when the unicorn stepped on the ground with his foot, he found that it was relatively hard, and he thought that there were stones buried in the soil, but he did not give up, and pushed aside the two-inch thick layer of soil, only to find that a piece of cast iron was exposed inside.
Is there really a chain here? Everyone waited with expectant eyes for the moment when the unicorn witnessed the miracle, staring at the unicorn, waiting for him to dig out the whole part of the iron little by little.
Yan Qiu also reminded vigorously: "You dig carefully, don't let you dig up the cultural relics." â
As soon as Yan Qiu said this, the unicorn became more serious, kneeling on the ground, without any tools, only digging to both sides with both hands.
I'm afraid that the only one here who doesn't care about the progress of the excavation is me, and I still keep thinking in my head, why can the spirit of the fat brother see the behavior of the ancients? Or is it that all people's spirits have this ability, but they are hidden in the brain and cannot really play their role? If this is the case, then the development of the human brain has entered a new milestone, if this part of the human ability can be activated, then it will be possible to reproduce history, and even predict the future?
The fat brother can see the past, and my explanation to myself is that when people are between life and death, they should be able to stimulate some of their potential, but after waking up, they will forget all about it. If it weren't for the reminder that I could see and just do, the fat brother would never have known about the past dreams.
But the fat brother said that I was the leader, and I was dressed in ancient times, just like the Qing court opera, with a big braid, so I couldn't find a basis for it anyway. I just hope that other people don't hold on to this, I won't say it if I don't kill it, it's buddy, I really don't know.
After grinding for a while, the unicorn dug up a rough idea, it was a large iron ring made of cast iron, the iron ring could reach into one arm and was still wide, and the iron ring was connected to other objects under it, buried deep under the earth.
The unicorn dragged the iron ring many times, but it had no effect at all, and the iron ring was still firmly fixed on the ground.
The unicorn was in a hurry, and continued to dig with his hands, but he had to dig it out to see what it was, but was stopped by Yan Qiu.
Yan Qiu explained: "There is no need to dig, there should be a long iron rod attached to the bottom, tied in the ground, used to fix the iron chain." The iron chain was removed, and only the iron ring remained, and there must still be one ahead. â
The unicorn still didn't stop, and turned to me and asked, "Is that so?" â
It seemed that he was already suspicious of me, and I said helplessly: "Walk up and see, won't it be clear?" â
