And the most precipitous, is located in the back ravine of the flying bat rock, because every evening, a large number of bats will fly out of the cave, hence the name. The entrance to this bat rock is located on a steep cliff face, and the cave is also a near-vertical cave that must be climbed with the help of ropes. Because of the steep terrain, the Flying Bat Rock also has an alias, called the Immortal Cave, which means that mortals don't want to go in, Bai Xiaowu was curious, but he once tried to climb into it once, but not long after he entered, he saw a pair of things that emitted a faint light, and they were still moving slowly, like two ghostly fires, he was frightened at the time, and quickly retreated. So he didn't know exactly what was going on inside the cave.

As for the ** rock, it is a karst cave full of mystery, its entrance is located in a bottomless pool, flooded by water all the year round, you have to dive to be able to enter, Bai Xiaowu has also dived in, he said that there is a cave in the cave, there is a turbulent underground river in it.

Unconsciously, we chatted with Bai Xiaowu for two or three hours, and had a general understanding of the situation in several karst caves around Qiping Village. When Bai Xiaowu was leaving, Wen Qingshan asked him to take us to inspect the cave the next day. At first, Bai Xiaowu was extremely reluctant, and it was not until Wen Qingshan promised to give him five hundred yuan a day as a reward that he agreed.

That night, we had dinner at Qi Erye's house, originally Qi Erye planned to let us live in his house, but because we had five people, he couldn't live in his house, so we had to find another way. It happened that the village committee had a few empty houses, and the beds in the houses were also ready-made, and they were originally intended to have a place to stay when the township leaders came to the village to inspect, but because Qiping Village was too remote, few people came all year round, and since the highway was opened, cars could drive directly to the village entrance, and even if the township leaders came, they would rarely live in the village, and no matter how late they had to rush back. As a result, those houses are largely vacant all year round. Second Master Qi discussed with several cadres in the village, and then arranged for us to live in temporarily.

After settling us, the villagers went home, and we gathered together to discuss the treasures of Dashun.

Wen Qingshan believes that the treasure is most likely hidden in the Hukou Rock, because according to Bai Xiaowu, the entrance of the ** rock has been submerged in the waterhole for a long time, and it is not convenient to transport a large amount of treasure into it, and it is very humid inside, which is not conducive to long-term storage of treasures. The terrain of Flying Bat Rock is steep, and it is not easy for people to climb into it, let alone transport so many gold and silver treasures into it.

His analysis is not unreasonable, but Huang Yixian has a different opinion, he feels that ** rock is more likely to be the location of the treasure hidden, because the entrance of ** rock has been flooded by the stream for a long time, which is relatively hidden and not easy to find.

After some discussion, an agreement was finally reached: first explore the Hukou Rock, and if it is not found, then explore the ** Rock and the Flying Bat Rock.

Early the next morning, I followed Huang Yixian to the master's grave to worship, and when I returned to the village committee after the worship, Bai Xiaowu also happened to arrive.

We brought all the equipment for caving, and under the guidance of Bai Xiaowu, we went to Hukou Rock.

The entrance to Hukou Rock is located in a small col a few miles away from the village, and we actually had to pass through that area on our way to Qiping Village, but we didn't know it at the time.

We walked along a sheep intestine path for half an hour, and came to a huge cave mouth, Bai Xiaowu pointed his hand towards the mouth of the cave, and said, "This is Hukou Rock." "I took a closer look, and the boulder above the mouth of the cave was sharply protruding, and at first glance, it really looked like a bloody mouth.

Huang Yixian looked around, nodded and praised: "This place has beautiful mountains and clear waters, and the tiger is on the dragon plate, which is really a good place for feng shui. ”

Wen Qingshan said with a smile: "Master Huang is worthy of being a feng shui master, wherever he goes, he doesn't forget to take a look at the local feng shui first." ”

"Haha, Boss Wen is smiling!"

Laughing, we walked into the cave, and everyone turned on the miner's lamp on their heads, and when they looked at it, they were all shocked. In front of me is a cave hall, and the volume is not ordinarily large, from the ground to the top of the cave, about ten meters high, the area is as big as two basketball courts.

There are many stone pillars growing on the ground, and above the top of the cave, there are countless large and small stalagmites hanging upside down, which looks as if they will fall down at any time. Some of the stone pillars are connected with the stalagmites hanging down from the roof of the cave, forming a "giant pillar supporting the sky" in the shape of an hourglass, which looks quite imposing.

But when we took a closer look, we found that many stone pillars and stalagmites had been broken by people, and needless to say, they must have been committed by the villagers who knocked on the stalagmites. Zhongru stone and stalagmites are natural works of art, the stone is covered with dense fine holes, it can be planted in a clay pot, and flowers and grass are planted on it, forming a landscape bonsai, which looks elegant and delicate. Therefore, there are often outsiders who come to collect it, and a complete stalagmite can be sold for dozens to hundreds of pieces. It's just that the bell stone can only grow about one millimeter per year, and it often takes tens of thousands of years or hundreds of thousands of years longer to form a complete bell stone. Once destroyed, it is difficult to recover, and it is not only its ornamental value that has been destroyed, but more importantly, its scientific value.

Wen Qingshan couldn't help but sigh: "But for the sake of a little profit, it is a pity to destroy all the precious natural strange stones in this cave!" ”

Bai Xiaowu disagreed: "This cave is full of stone pillars and stalagmites, what is there to pity." ”

Wen Qingshan glanced at Bai Xiaowu and said very seriously: "If the Zhongru stone resources in this cave are destroyed, then the cave will lose its development and utilization value!" He looked like he was really an expert who had come to inspect the cave.

"If you lose it, you lose it, anyway, it doesn't matter to me whether you open it or not!" Bai Xiaowu still had an indifferent attitude.

Wen Qingshan couldn't help but be stunned, and wanted to say something more, Huang Yixian saw that he seemed to be more serious, and hurriedly persuaded on the side: "Boss Wen, it's useless to tell Xiao Wu about this, let's talk to Second Master Qi after we go back." ”

Wen Qingshan thought about it, so he didn't say anything more.

Bai Xiaowu didn't bother to pay attention to us, he walked a few steps forward alone, turned his head and said coldly: "The terrain in this cave is very complicated, and there are forks in the cave everywhere, you have to follow closely, don't get lost." After saying that, he strode forward without looking back, and everyone hurried to follow.

Under the leadership of Bai Xiaowu, we walked all the way forward, and as we gradually deepened, the tunnel narrowed a lot, but it was still five or six meters wide and four or five meters high. Since the cave is full of stone pillars protruding from the ground, and there are stalagmites of different lengths above our heads, we can only walk around the stone pillars and stalagmites.

After walking not far, a three-point fork in the road appeared in front of him, Bai Xiaowu stopped, thought for a while, raised his leg and walked towards the fork on the right, Wen Qingshan hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Brother Xiaowu, why do you want to take this road?" ”

Bai Xiaowu said: "This road is easier to walk, and I am more familiar with it, of course I take this road!" ”

Everyone was a little helpless, so they had to follow Bai Xiaowu to continue walking, but Wen Qingshan still kept an eye on it, he took out a highlighter that could reflect the light, and quietly drew a line on the cave wall, so that if you pass by this cave next time, you will know that you have already come, and avoid taking the same path.

Along the way, we encountered many forks in the holes, and each time Bai Xiaowu chose one of them according to his familiarity or so-called intuition, and we had to follow him.

I don't know how long I wandered around, but I didn't find the slightest clue related to the treasure, the fat man was too tired, he found a slightly flat place, sat down, panted and said, "This ...... Where is this going to go? ”

The cheap blurted out: "If the treasure is so easy to discover, it won't be our turn!" ”

As soon as his words fell, Bai Xiaowu, who was walking in the front, suddenly turned around: "What treasure are you talking about!?" ”

Only then did he realize that he had slipped out, and he didn't know how to defend himself for a while, Wen Qingshan hurriedly took over and said: "What he means is that the cave is a huge natural treasure house, and the purpose of our coming here is to ...... this natural treasure house."

Before he finished speaking, Bai Xiaowu waved his hand and interrupted him: "Don't fool me anymore, let's be honest, are you here to find treasure?" ”

Everyone was taken aback, everyone never thought that Bai Xiaowu actually knew about the treasure of Dashun!

After being stunned for a moment, Wen Qingshan opened his mouth and asked, "How did you know about the treasure?" ”

Bai Xiaowu snorted lightly: "Hmph! I have long thought that you are not here to inspect the cave, but indeed for the treasure! ”

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a moment. After a while, Bai Xiaowu said, "I'm not afraid to tell you that our Bai family is only to protect this treasure that we will take root in the Chessboard Valley!" ”

"What did you say!?" Everyone was shocked again, according to what Bai Xiaowu said, the people of Qiping Village knew about the treasure of Dashun, but if this was the case, how could they agree with us to explore the cave? Could it be that the treasure is not in the cave?

We were puzzled, and Bai Xiaowu said again: "But don't worry, although the Bai family guards this treasure, they don't know the existence of this treasure!" ”

Everyone heard it in a fog, since they didn't know the existence of this treasure, how could they protect it?

Bai Xiaowu saw everyone's doubts and explained: "What our Bai family is guarding is just a myth, and we don't know that this myth is related to the treasure of Dashun. ”
