Hongmei nodded silently and frequently as she listened, as if she was very thoughtful. After my cousin finished talking about this, I couldn't help but ask Hongmei next to me: "But what is the connection between what my cousin said and the feng shui master's current illness?" ”

Hongmei looked at the feng shui master who was seriously ill on the bed, and explained to us softly: "What my cousin said, from the perspective of Western medicine, means that the tiger's liver, because of the special material composition, can cause human protein mutation after eating, so there are a series of symptoms such as molting of strict zhòng; However, from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, the liver of a tiger is a 'extreme yin thing' in animal organs, and the body of ordinary people is biased towards yang, as soon as they encounter this kind of 'extreme yin thing', of course, yin and yang will be strictly unbalanced, and yin and yang qi will be disordered in the body, and they will come out on the surface of the body."

But the more we listened, the more confused we became, and Sister Li couldn't help but ask: "I don't understand what Hongmei said, since eating tiger liver can cause the human body to molt strictly, but the feng shui master has already molted so strictly, if you take tiger liver, won't it make it worse, and the consequences will be even more unimaginable?" ”

Hongmei seemed to be a little tired of being asked by us laymen, she shook her head helplessly, smiled bitterly, and still patiently explained: "I just said that the tiger's liver is a 'extreme yin thing', according to Xiao Lei's experience with some feng shui masters who told me last night, it can be judged that his old man should belong to the extreme yin physique."

There are very few people with this kind of physique, and in this regard, there is a certain similarity between the physique of a feng shui master and a high blind man. The reason why Feng Shui masters have this symptom is because after the yin energy of the mountain is destroyed, his own yin energy is also greatly weakened, and the yang energy takes advantage of the void to enter, as I just said, he is an extreme yin physique, too much yang energy, will inevitably cause him severe damage, the reason why he chose to settle in this mountain is that he feels that the yin energy here can protect him, and the older he gets, the more he needs this protection.

Now that his body has been damaged by the yang energy, as long as the yin energy is strengthened, the yang energy can be forced out and the feng shui master can return to normal, so if he is given a tiger liver, his yin energy can be quickly increased and he will get better quickly. ”

I feel that Du Hongmei's speech is too complicated, and I don't seem to understand it, but I also roughly understand what she wants to express. As long as the cousin seemed to admire it, he looked at Hongmei and nodded his head fiercely as if he agreed very much.

After Hongmei explained this, she sighed very frustrated and sad: "But talking about this and discussing this now is useless for the current situation of the feng shui master." ”

We all fell silent, yes, how could we get the liver of a tiger in a short period of time?

Look at the Feng Shui master on the bed, he has closed his eyes tiredly, his throat squirming slightly, and letting out a subtle, painful moan.

The cousin looked at his master on the bed, his brows were also tightened, his face was sad, he closed his eyes from time to time, and pressed his temple with his hand, as if he was trying to think about something, and the atmosphere in the room was suffocating.

Suddenly, my cousin seemed to think of something suddenly, his eyes lit up, and he turned his head to Hongmei and asked: "Hongmei, since you can use medicine to control that crack and prevent it from closing according to your own cycle, can you also use medicine to make that crack close together?" ”

Hongmei nodded: "Yes, as long as I have a 'Extreme Yin Medicine', I can neutralize the effect of that 'Extreme Yang Medicine', and let the crack return to its original cycle."

The cousin slapped his thigh excitedly: "Alas, that's right, you hurry up and prepare it now, and then quickly pour it into that crack, let the crack immediately close according to its own cycle, so that the one qiē in the back mountain will return to normal, all the strange phenomena in the past few days are caused by the yin qi of the mountain being disturbed by that crack, and the master's illness is also related to this, therefore, only that crack is naturally closed, all the qi qi will be normal, and the yin qi of the mountain can be restored, and then the master will have a good hope." 。

Sister Li muttered in a small voice with a little regret: "But the blind man has not been caught yet, the purpose of our disturbance of the mountain yin qi is to force the blind man to come out of that cave, and it seems that he is about to succeed, if the crack is closed, all the efforts will be wasted."

The cousin also shook his head a little helplessly: "Alas, I understand all these truths, but now it is still important to save people, there is a glimmer of hope, we have to work hard."

Seeing that my cousin is so resolute, and we all want to make the feng shui master better, although I don't know if this method is useful, but a dead horse should be a live horse doctor, and I can't think of a better way anyway, so no one has any objections. My cousin said that he would just stay with the feng shui master to take care of it, and that there would be no help if there were too many people, so let's accompany Hongmei to prepare the medicine immediately, and then pour it into that crack as quickly as possible, the faster we can complete it, the greater the hope that the feng shui master will survive.

Of course, we dare not delay in the slightest moment, although this is in the mountains, and the road is not easy to walk, but after all, it is very close to the city, only a few kilometers. We said no more, and immediately said goodbye to our cousin, and hurried down the hill to the city.

When we arrived in the city, except for Xiao Lei, everyone was so tired that we didn't go anywhere else, but hurriedly drove to Sister Li's house and drove straight to the largest Chinese medicine store in the county.

In the Chinese medicine store, Hongmei bought more than ten medicines, used a small scale specially weighed the medicine, carefully weighed the dosage of each medicine, and then mixed and boiled together, and also took out a few pieces of black things from a red bag she brought and poured them into the medicine. The three of us were impressed by the red bag, in terms of shape, it is very similar to the kind seen in costume movies or TV series, but the color is very light, and it is also very old, and many places have been worn out, and you can see that it is an old object at a glance.

We are like this, boiled at the scene of the Chinese medicine store, about a full simmer for nearly an hour and a half, I, Xiao Lei, and Sister Li, all remember to look at the watch frequently, look at our anxious looks, Hongmei especially explained to us the importance of boiling this process, she said anything can be fast, but this boiling process, must use enough time, otherwise it will be wasted.

We finally survived the hour and a half in extreme anxiety, and then hurriedly helped Hongmei carefully pour the boiled medicine into a black clay pot. We didn't go home again, but held the jar of medicine, got into Sister Li's car, and went straight to the crack in the back mountain a hundred miles away.

Because she is familiar with the road, Sister Li drove the car very fast, and felt that it took much shorter time than usual. I parked the car at the foot of the mountain, hurriedly locked it up, took the necessary things and equipment—especially the jar of medicine—and walked briskly into the mountains.

Many things in the world are really coincidental when you think about it, but there is a famous saying that "many accidents are actually inevitable" - that is to say, many things seem to be coincidental, but when you look closely, there are still many inevitable reasons for their appearance.

Because my cousin is the most senior expert of our county cultural bureau, of course, he has the most complete collection of historical materials about our area. Among the historical materials collected, one of them is a military map left over from the Anti-Japanese War, and this map was framed and hung in my cousin's study.

But this military map happened to be seen by Xiao Lei, as a highly professionally trained soldier, he has a sensitivity and interest in this kind of military map that ordinary people can't reach, so he often stands in front of the map and admires it for a long time. And the day after we returned from the crack, Xiao Lei was in his cousin's study, and when he accidentally saw this map, he was shocked, and he suddenly found that this military map was actually the terrain of the area where the mysterious crack appeared.

This is not nothing, he actually discovered an astonishing secret on this military map with a scale of 1:10,000: there is a mountain path that leads to the crack.

The reason why it took us hours last time to get to that crack was because we didn't know the shortcut, and we had to go around a big circle in the rugged mountains to get there. If you take this path, according to Xiao Lei's estimate, judging from the distance alone, it will take you at most half an hour to reach the crack.

Today, due to the special circumstances, we decided to take this path.

But according to Xiao Lei's impression, when we arrived at the place where the path should be, we didn't find any "mountain trail", and we couldn't help but wonder: whether Xiao Lei remembered wrong, or the map was drawn wrong at all.

Xiao Lei seemed to see our doubts, he smiled and explained to us that one of the most important abilities of a qualified soldier is to read maps and memorize maps.

Therefore, his ability to read and memorize maps is absolutely reliable. In the relevant quiz, I never missed it. In addition, that map is even more unlikely to go wrong, because for a military map, a well, a road, a forest, etc., are all related to the victory or defeat of a battle, and determine the life and death of many people, so on the military map, there will never be a road that actually does not appear for no reason.

Listening to Xiao Lei say this, we all feel that it makes sense, if we don't take this shortcut, it may take several more hours, and if we delay for one more minute, the life of the feng shui master will be more dangerous.

Xiao Lei frowned, repeatedly gestured with his hands, measured with steps, took out paper and pen, calculated, and finally, he seemed to be very confident, pointed to a bush and said: "That path, it should be here."

We followed his hand and saw that there was no road, and it was obviously a dense bush. Xiao Lei didn't say anything more this time, but took out a half-foot-long knife from his bag, and then slashed at the bushes, and after looking five or six meters inside, sure enough, an extremely narrow and rugged path appeared in front of us.
