Once I found the general direction, I changed to the leftmost lane and turned into the garage of Hongya Cave. The garage of Hongya Cave extends directly to the edge of the cliff near the river, which means that above our parking head, there is the viaduct and road that hangs on the side of the river. After parking the car, we went up to the fourth floor from the elevator, because there is a relatively large terrace on the fourth floor near the direction of Chaotianmen, and if we are lucky and there is no miscalculation, we should be able to see the hole in the cliff wall from the position of that terrace.

According to my habit, the first thing I did after getting off the elevator was to go straight to the major food areas, grilled large meat skewers, sprinkled with chili oil and cumin powder, and the mere thought of it would make my saliva secrete. I was impressed by the variety of yakiniku dishes, handmade chutney, sweet and spicy chicken wings, and Japanese food, especially the hand-rolled sushi with salmon fillet and crab roe sauce wrapped in seaweed and cheese on the outside, which I had to pack and take away every time I went there.

And that day, I didn't stop for these delicacies at all, not because I had something important to do, but because if I bought one, I would be embarrassed not to buy one for Fu Yunni and Hu Zongren, which means that I would spend three cents and I couldn't afford it.

After getting off the elevator, walk to the shopping street and walk in the direction of the theater. It's only a hundred meters away, and you can walk outside the theater. And the open space outside the theater is the terrace I am talking about. I walked as far as I could into the corner of the terrace, but was disappointed to find that there was nothing to be seen, and the location of the hole I had calculated was obscured by the buildings on top. I was a little unwilling, so I told Hu Zongren and Fu Yunni that I would go inside and ask the operators here to see if they knew anything about the entrance of the cave, and if anyone knew about the cave, I would ask where I could get close to the entrance of the cave. Hu Zongren said okay, then he and Fu Yunni continued to go up the building, because the restaurant still has a terrace. So we split up in threes, and I went back and forth between the various merchants on the fourth floor, and by the way, I could get rid of them and I could eat alone. But I inquired for a long time, but found nothing. The tenants here are all renting stalls from all over the world, and I think the reason why they chose to rent a shop here is simply because of the huge number of tourists here, so most people don't know the allusions or original appearance of the place itself. I finally asked an old man who was painting sugar paintings on the edge of the covered bridge, and he said that there was a hole here, but this place could not be seen, and I heard that he had to go to a certain office of the management of the nine-story Hongya Cave to see a small corner, and he had gone to this management office to pay the management fee before. The old man who painted the candy painting also said that the hole could not be reached, and it was estimated that there was nothing in it, only a small stream of sewage flowing out of it.

It's an answer, but it's better than asking nothing, at least it's the most valuable clue I've gotten after a long walk, even though it doesn't change anything. So I called Hu Zongren and asked him if he could see it from the top of the ninth floor, Hu Zongren said that he still couldn't see it, and the ninth floor was full of larger shops, as well as bars, etc., and the original location of the terrace on the fourth floor also built a house, and built a Japanese restaurant, all blocking everything and not being able to see anything. I had no choice but to let Hu Zongren and Fu Yunni wait for me on the ninth floor, and I took the elevator myself.

After meeting with Hu Zongren and them, I also carefully checked the terrain, this floor is the highest first floor of Hongya Cave, and then go up, it is Cangbai Road. I was at a loss for a moment, I knew that the hole was close to us, but we couldn't see it because it was blocked. I asked Hu Zongren, what should we do now, let alone entering the cave, we can't even see it. Hu Zongren said to me, let's go to the fort on Cangbai Road and take a look, maybe we can see it. At this time, Hu Zongren pointed to my mouth and said in surprise, why is your mouth so red? There is also chili noodles. I said to him, it's not early, you still care about the chili noodles, hurry up!

After walking from the passage to Cangbai Road, we lay on the row of antique city walls, stretched our necks to see the situation under the cliff, but we couldn't see anything, and there were security guards patrolling, and many people were taking photos with the ancient forts, so we didn't dare to rush to the city wall to see. At this time, Hu Zongren pointed to the next row of parking places from afar and said to me, do you know how to get to that place?

I followed the direction of his finger and saw the terrace on the fourth floor of Hongyadong in the distance, and between the terrace and the viaduct by the river, there was a corner lower than the viaduct, a small dam, and the dam was full of cars. I thought about it carefully, with my understanding of this area, the parking lot can be repaired to this position, in addition to the garage where we parked before, there is only the lower river in the other direction, and the location of the lower river channel obviously should not be here, so to speak, it should be the garage where we parked, I don't know if the road can go around from that direction, you can go to this small dam.

This was undoubtedly a major discovery, so I happily pointed to the viaduct and said to Hu Zongren, "Look there, we are parking there now, and then we can see the hole in the cliff wall through the telescope, since we can see the location of the previous parking at this angle where we are standing now, it means that the location of the hole should be not far from our feet at this moment." And the position where we stand is exactly the same as the small dam where we parked and where we parked on the viaduct in the first place, which means that if we find this small dam, we will definitely be able to see this hole there.

Hu Zongren also smiled happily, and took my words, if we can see the location of the cave clearly, we can calculate the height of the cave from the top of the cliff or how far away from those houses, we can find a way to get in, right? I nodded, Fu Yunni praised Hu Zongren on the side, I can't see that you are quite smart. Has she forgotten that I came up with all these theories? So we went back to the ninth floor of Hongya Cave again, and sat directly in the garage on the first floor with an elevator.

With specific goals in mind, it's much easier to find. When we parked the car, we didn't find that because the passenger flow was too large, the management side expanded the original garage on the basis of a circle, and this part of the expansion was not covered by the garage roof. I asked an old man who was listening to the radio at the toll place, and I asked him if the garage was open-air, and he said that he walked along the inside, and there was a bend to the next garage, but don't go down, walk aside, there is a place that looks like a garbage station, and you can see it when you walk out of it.

According to the direction of the old man's guidance, we quickly found the garbage station, the garage was originally dark, at best a little faint light, but after turning the garbage station, it was a bright hall, a fierce river wind came to the face, and what appeared in front of us was the Taotao Jialing River. Not far from the river, has erected several huge bridge piers, this is a new bridge in Chongqing, called Qianguomen Bridge, just started construction not much time, some days ago the news also broadcast a lot, said that with this bridge, Jiangbei City in the past Yuzhong District and the south bank of the traffic pressure will be relieved a lot, the speed is also a lot faster.

I told Hu Zongren the name of this bridge, and he smiled and said, is this bridge connecting Hongya Cave and Jiangbei City? How can it have anything to do with the car in the South Shore District, we people in the South Shore District don't have this blessing. I glanced at Hu Zongren and said that you have only been in the country for a long time, and you call yourself the people of Nan'an District, and it was also said in the news that it was built at the same time as this Qianguomen Bridge, and there is a bridge, which is on the Yangtze River, isn't this fast to Nan'an District? Another kind of bridge is called the East Watergate Bridge...

When I said this, I was suddenly stunned. Then I looked at Hu Zongren, and Hu Zongren seemed to have discovered something, but we looked at each other and didn't say anything. After a long while, Fu Yunni asked the two of us, what was written on the note in the coffin? I stammered and said, the hole of Hongya Cave, the gate of East Water Gate, the rock of Hutou Rock, and the city of Jiangbei City.

Hu Zongren said, this is too coincidence, right? As soon as these two bridges are repaired, the three places in this poem are directly connected, do you think it will have anything to do with this bridge? I frowned, for I really didn't know what to do. But to say that it was a pure coincidence between them, I also feel unwilling to believe it. I couldn't figure it out, so I secretly wrote down this matter for the time being, planning to go back and ask Situ. So I said to Hu Zongren, let's not guess, let's ask Master Situ again when we go back, and then let's find the hole first.

So we walked along the small lane all the way out, dozens of meters later, and finally came to a small dam, this dam has a feeling of about 500 square meters, at the end of the dam is a row of colored steel plate to build a prefabricated house, it is estimated that it is the workers' dormitory here. And the dam is full of cars parked head-to-head. We looked up and saw that above us was the Qianguomen Bridge, where the bridge was about to be built, and on the cliff wall at a forty-five degree angle to the upper right of us, the hole looked very clear, although some vines obscured a small part of the hole.

The entrance to the cave is not very large, and there are many water stains on the earthy yellow cliff wall because of the thin water flowing out of the hole. Judging from the distance, the location of the cave is about more than ten meters away from the position of the Cangbai Road city wall on the top of the cliff, if you want to enter the hole, then it will be a good choice to rappel down from the city wall, but you must avoid the eagle-like eyes of the patrol security guards, and you have to have enough guts, I personally definitely don't have such guts, because although I don't have a fear of heights, but I still don't dare to try this kind of careless thing, especially I know that if I go, it must be Hu Zongren who pulls the rope, Then I wouldn't dare even more.

In addition, the entrance to the cave can also be seen at the corner of the Japanese restaurant near the cliff wall, about 20 meters above the left. But there is definitely no way to pass this distance, but at this moment, we are sure that in that restaurant, as long as we find the right angle, we will definitely be able to observe this hole more clearly.

But the new problem came again, when we were on the ninth floor just now, the door of the restaurant has been closed, and the door is pasted with words like "please look forward to the decoration", but because it is a public place, we must not dare to open the door to let the gypsum dust fly, if the renovation workers are inside, then what kind of reason do we have to find to mix in, and then hide from the world to observe the hole?
