Walking all the way along the plank road on the cliff, everyone was cautious, not daring to go too fast, for fear of stepping on the leakage. In the morning when the fog is steaming, the entire plank road is wrapped in mist, which makes the future a little blurred, and only the black plank road can be seen disappearing from time to time.

I'm used to walking at the end, so that I can observe everyone to the fullest, and I've had too many experiences of being attacked by people behind me before. In about ten minutes, we walked to the center of the first bend, and from this position, we could already see the situation behind the bend, and there were cliffs on both sides that were difficult for apes to climb, and even after the bend, there was no way out.

This terrain is definitely a natural dead-end road, and the plank road under our feet winds along the cliff and becomes the only feasible road for us.

The further you go, the narrower the plank road becomes, which is probably due to the steep terrain of the cliff and the inconvenience caused by artificial inconvenience. We also have to be more cautious. The second half of the plank road, the widest part can only allow two people to pass side by side, but at the same time, its wooden piles are also tighter and stronger, the plank road of the manhole wood paved with two layers, there is no danger of stepping on the air, walking in it, there is a kind of foot on the river body floating clouds, the wind blows through the valley of the scene.

Kuroko amazed again and again, leaning to the side of the cliff, his eyes rolling around, as if he was dizzying.

At this moment, Lu Su in front of him suddenly accelerated his pace, as if he had found something, due to the straight line of sight, I didn't know what was in front of me for a while, and I could only speed up. After a while, he saw Lu Su stop, and at the plank road in front of him, a small pavilion suddenly appeared.

That's right, it's the kind of gazebo on the mountain road for pedestrians to rest. I saw that the pavilion was supported by the pile at the bottom, and the whole thing hung out in the air, the shape was about two people high, but the space was large, and there was no seat. ”

I said, "Maybe it's for the craftsman to rest." ”

Feng Ghost pointed to the top of the pavilion and said, "Look at the shape of this pavilion, there are Pixiu and Chaofeng on the top, and it has also been painted with bright lacquer, and the pavilion for craftsmen to rest their feet does not need to be built so exquisitely, and it has a different function." "When we all gathered at the pavilion, we found that a hole had been carved out of the cliff opposite the pavilion, and a stone tablet of one person high was inlaid with the mountain in the hollow. I saw that the stele was carried by a stele, and there was no text on the stele, but it was some Fulu-like patterns.

I couldn't read it, and Kuroko couldn't understand it even more, and he said, "Why is there a stone tablet embedded here, and there is a big turtle under this stone tablet." ”

Feng Ghost said: "What a big turtle, this is a sacred beast, like to carry heavy things, the stone tablets of temples have always had this thing. I look at the patterns on this stone tablet, it looks like runes. ”

It was still Lu Su who was well-informed, and he saw it at a glance, and said: "It is the 'Wuyue Town Talisman', which is a craftsman's talisman, and it can be guaranteed." It seems that this pavilion and stele are a ritual point, and it is estimated that they are used to pray for the construction of this plank road. He turned his gaze, and suddenly looked at the stump under the stele, and said, "This is not a stump, the stump is shaped like a turtle with the claws of a lin's head, but this one looks like a tortoise." ”

As soon as he said the turtle, I couldn't help but chuckle in my heart, remembering the dream that haunted me all night last night, and I felt a little uncomfortable when I saw the turtle turn into a turtle.

Hearing this, Feng Ghost squatted down to observe carefully, and said in surprise: "It's really a stone turtle, strange, there has always been only a turtle stele, but I haven't heard of a turtle stele." Could it be that the craftsman who carved it didn't know what it looked like, so he made a turtle to fill the number? As he spoke, he touched the stone turtle's head, but at this touch, the stone turtle actually moved!

This sudden scene, we were shocked, and we couldn't help but retreat, if it wasn't for a gazebo behind, maybe it would be planted along the plank road.

Kuroko yelled; "The turtle moves!"

Feng Ghost sat on the ground with his butt in his hand, and also took two steps back, and at this time, the stone glans was still moving slowly, slowly to the left, and then to the right, the scene of the stone moving, not to mention how weird it was.

Could it be that the stone turtle has become a sperm?

Could it be that it was the one who gave me my dream last night? Before I could figure it out, all of a sudden, I saw that the surface of the turtle began to peel off slowly, scattering some gray-white things, like large pieces of white powder falling off. As the limestone gray material on the surface peeled off, a green, wrinkled turtle head was revealed.

It wasn't until this time that we knew what the stone turtle was, and it was clearly a living old turtle!

The folk tradition of shaking the tortoise, that is, when building some large buildings, a tortoise will be suppressed under the foundation, the turtle shell is heavy, and it is a long-lived thing, so there is a blessing building standing, and the construction process is smooth and peaceful.

This old turtle, Bacheng was caught by Puzhen from the Nu River back then, and then it was suppressed here as a sacrifice, and after a long time, the dust scraped from afar fell on this old turtle, and it really turned it into a stone turtle.

I've heard that some old turtles will 'turtle breath', stay in a state of not eating, drinking, and not moving, and can live for thousands of years, but I didn't expect to see it today.

At this moment, the old turtle kept breaking free, and the dust accumulated around him fell in a stream.

The moment everyone saw this old turtle, they couldn't help but gasp, because this old turtle had a face that resembled a human, and it was exactly the same as what I saw in my dream. I was stunned for a moment, almost certain that it was the old turtle who was dreaming for me last night.

Could it be that this old turtle has really become a spirit, and knows that we are passing through this place today, so he asked us to save it from the dream? At this moment, the old turtle broke free from the lime on the surface, and remained motionless, as if he had become extremely weak, but looked at us with a pair of round eyes, from which we could clearly see a kind of affection, pleading and despair.

At this time, I found out that the entire stele was tied to the shell of the old turtle by an iron chain, and the other end of the iron chain was pierced into the mountain. The old turtle could not get rid of the iron chain, so naturally, he could only carry this Wuyue Town-shaped monument day after day.

Kuroko was a little scared and said, "This old turtle has a human face." ”

Feng Ghost said: "It turns out that the turtle's breath is true, but this poor old turtle is also a rare thing in old age, and it has been pressed under this stone tablet for thousands of years." ”

Now it seems that Yiqiē has already understood that last night's dream must be related to this old turtle, so I no longer doubt it, and I will tell everyone about last night's dream. Hearing this, Feng Ghost Hand said in surprise; "Old turtle dreams? This is weird, what are you going to do? ”

I glanced at the old turtle that seemed to be dying, these old things often can't be lazy, otherwise it will be easy to cause disaster, and besides, even if you don't consider it from this level, this old turtle has been pressed by the stone tablet for a thousand years, it is really pitiful. Thinking of this, I said, "I see that this iron chain only covers the turtle shell, and it is a matter of effort to rescue it, you wait for me for a while, and I will get it out." ”

I took a pry and was about to move, when Lu Su said, "Don't do it yet." ”

He raised his hand slightly, stopped me from holding the pry, and said: "The suppression of the sacrificial theory is not groundless, this wooden plank road has been preserved for more than 1,500 years, and it has a great relationship with this old turtle." Brother Chen, it's not that I don't pity it, it's just that we are all on the cliff now, what should we do if we release it and something goes wrong with the plank road? ”

The white chopping chicken was carried by Li Fatzi at this time, and he smiled strangely: "It's just an old turtle, what kind of kindness." ”

I hesitated for a moment, dissatisfied in my heart, and said, "The old turtle has a spirit, let's leave like this, and we are not afraid of any disasters in the future?" ”

Feng Ghost clasped his hands around his chest and said, "If it really has this ability, will it still be pressed here?" ”

I said: "One thing descends one thing, the person who caught it back then, the eight achievements are corpse immortals, the power of corpse immortals, others don't know, you should be clear, right?" I looked at Lu Su. He swallowed slightly, looked at the old turtle, and said, "It's not that I'm ruthless, this old turtle is dying, and he won't live long if he is afraid of it, so why take this risk for it." ”

Suddenly, I suddenly understood why this old turtle was just dreaming of me among the others, it seemed that it was really a spiritual thing, and I knew that the rest of the people could not save it. And at this moment, the dying old turtle moved, and this time, its gaze stayed directly on me, a turtle face full of deep folds, resembling a human shape, like an old man in the last years of the wind and candles, with dry eyes, pleading and despair prevailing.

I don't know why, looking at its face that resembles an old man, I suddenly remembered my grandfather, and I immediately said coldly: "I have made up my mind, can't you even tolerate an old turtle?" ”

Seeing this, Heizi played a round jerkily and said, "Brother Lu, this old turtle looks quite pitiful, or let's let it go." Saying that, he jumped twice on the spot, indicating that the plank road was very strong, and even if there was no old turtle, there would be no problem.

Seeing this, Lu Su sighed slightly and nodded in agreement.

Feng Ghost Hand and Bai Chopping Chicken were naturally reluctant to mix and sat in the pavilion to rest. Although Lu Su was reluctant to save him, he also followed to help at this time, and there was no dissatisfaction on his face, I glanced at him and felt that such a person was really unfathomable.

It's good for everyone, but you can never guess what's going on in his mind.

Sensing my gaze, Lu Su just smiled slightly and said, "Since you have decided to do something, you can do it well, there is nothing to regret." As soon as the words fell, the two of us joined forces, and the iron chain was immediately removed from the turtle shell.
