Chapter 39

Bai Yi's heart was a little excited, as soon as he thought that Fu Yu might be inside, his heart was about to burst out, and he stood up: "Okay, let's go in quickly, let's take it as the head of the official entrance to the cliff coffin." ()“

Tang Sancheng looked up, the protruding stone slabs on this mountain were clearly visible, and with such a rough sweep, he could see that there were more than a dozen, which was not counting the number outside the line of sight.

"It's really strange that some people don't want to settle down in the earth and place themselves on the cliff cave." Tang Sancheng pointed to the protruding stones, and he was not afraid of being disrespectful to the dead: "Look, there are so many, no wonder this mountain is a lonely peak, the yin qi is so heavy, of course it will break the feng shui." “

"You said that you have no support behind your back, so you will become a lonely peak?" Bai Yi immediately pierced Tang Sancheng's words: "Forget it, you have never been accurate in speaking, the cliff coffin is actually called a hanging coffin, which comes from the hanging coffin burial." It is a burial method in which the body is placed in a coffin and hung in the air on a cliff, or the body is placed in a natural cave in a high mountain cliff or on a natural platform or stone pin of a cliff, or in a cliff cave that is hewn out of the water.

"Most of the hanging coffins are the burial methods of ethnic minorities, and it is not surprising that the Miao people adopt them, in the relevant records, there are hanging coffins in Hunan, but ......" Bai Yi asked Tang Sancheng: "Have you heard the sound of water near here?" “

Tang Sancheng didn't listen to it, and shook his head directly: "Of course there is no, if this mountain relies on water, it will not become a lonely peak, and there is no one to rely on, this is the crux of the problem, the feng shui of Miao Village taught it to be broken, it is really a failure!" “

"That's weird. Bai Yi pondered: "As far as I know, the burial place of hanging coffins is generally selected on the cliff high rock facing the river, and the coffin is more than ten meters to dozens of meters above the water surface, and some are even hundreds of meters high. Other burial styles are also different, such as the stump wooden frame type, that is, one end of the coffin is placed in a natural cave or rock crevice, and the other end is erected on a wooden stake on a cliff; There are also natural cave types, that is, the natural cave on the cliff of the river is slightly renovated and the coffin is placed in the cave; There is a manual digging of the horizontal hole type, that is, on the wall of the river, the rectangular horizontal fiery is dug manually, and the side of the coffin is exposed; There is also a manual excavation of the square hole type, that is, the square hole is dug into a square hole by hand on the cliff wall of the Linjiang River, and the natural cave can also be processed into a square hole, and the coffin is placed in it; There is also a cliff stake type, that is, a small square hole is dug into the cliff cliff near the river, and the coffin is erected on the wooden stake after beating people. “

"What do you want to express after saying so much?" These various ways of hanging the coffin made Tang Sancheng's head dizzy: "Knowing that I'm stupid, can't you just say it?" “

Bai Yi stared at Tang Sancheng's eyes, his eyes were full of contempt: "Although these hanging coffins are buried in different ways, they all have a common feature, they are near the river, they must be on the water!" “

Tang Sancheng suddenly became enlightened: "I understand, you mean that the hanging coffin here is very strange, and it is not above the water, right?" If you follow the custom of hanging coffin burial, you can completely avoid hanging coffin burial on this mountain, there are so many mountains here, you can choose another mountain near the water as the location of hanging coffin burial. ()“

"All hit!" Bai Yi felt happy at this time: "That's what I meant, there must be something strange in this." “

"If it's weird or not, just go in and see if it's weird." Tang Sancheng walked forward as he spoke, he had already seen the cave, Bai Yi hurriedly followed, the two of them walked forward for about dozens of steps, and suddenly stopped, Tang Sancheng looked back at Bai Yi, his eyes were full of incredulity: "Do you feel it?" “

Bai Yi nodded: "Yes, we have been walking for so long, it feels ...... Not moving forward at all! “

This piece of open space is an insurmountable obstacle, Bai Yi does not give up: "Let's go another route!" "I just walked in a straight line, and this time I went back and forth zigzag...... The result is still the same! Obviously, his feet were constantly moving, but the distance did not shrink, and Bai Yi's face became snow-white: "Ghost hit the wall!" “

"Ghost hitting the wall?" This Tang San is mature, or when he was in the small place called Sanyan Village, he often heard the people in the village mention that who met a ghost hit the wall last night, and even more evilly said, as soon as the day dawns, the rooster crows, hey, it's good, and people can go out, but Tang Sancheng doesn't think it's the reason for the rooster's crow. ()

"Yes, I haven't encountered it, but I've heard about it." Bai Yi's head is like an encyclopedia, and the experience of the past 50 years and the knowledge accumulated from studying abroad have made Bai Yi what he is today: "I can't get out of a circle." This phenomenon is real in the first place. There are a lot of people who have experienced it. When the eyes are closed, or at night or in the countryside, there is a slight difference in the length of the two feet, and after that, people fall into a circle with a radius of about 3 km......

The sky has indeed darkened, and it can barely be called night, is it really a ghost hitting the wall? Tang Sancheng frowned, the sky was too dark, he couldn't see the surroundings clearly, if it was a formation, he would definitely be able to see it.

Tang Sancheng was a little reluctant: "Do you want to try again?" "It's really annoying that the mountain is right in front of you, but you can't get close!

"It's okay to try, but I'm telling you, I'm not optimistic about success." Bai Yi took a step, this time, the step was bigger, and at the same time counted the steps in his mouth: "One, two, three......"

Tang Sancheng also followed, striding away, counting with a gourd in his mouth: "One, two, three......"

The two of them stopped when they counted to thirty at the same time, Tang Sancheng was disappointed for a while, thirty steps vigorously forward, it was impossible to be in the step, this was common sense, but it was still so far! It's like not moving forward at all! Tang Sancheng muttered, "It's really evil! “

Bai Yi was very calm: "I said, we may have encountered a ghost hitting the wall." At this time, the sky has the meaning of completely overturning the black, and if you don't leave, the sky will be completely dark: "Tang Sancheng, let's go back first, and come back tomorrow when we are ready, is it a ghost hitting the wall, don't you know if you try again during the day tomorrow?" “

At this point, there is no way to go back, even if Tang Sancheng does not give up, he is helpless, and jumps his feet: "What can I do if I don't go back!" The Seven Evils are still waiting for us! “

The two of them were cut off by an invisible wall, and in desperation, they had no choice but to go home, and on the way back, there was a lot of tossing, and there were many more scratches on the free hand, which was itchy and painful, Bai Yi didn't think so, but a bad thought appeared in Tang Sancheng's heart: "Bai Yi, don't you feel more and more itchy?" “

"This is a normal reaction, I have ointment in my bag, I can go back and apply it, it is necessary to travel." Bai Yi quickened his pace: "Hurry up, it's going to be dark soon." “

Tang Sancheng only felt that the back of his hand was getting more and more itchy, although he didn't see blood, but it hurt very much, he was anxious to go back to the stilted building to apply the ointment, followed behind Bai Yi quickly, and unconsciously took big steps, the two of them returned to the mountainside before it was completely dark, and now as long as they follow the stone green slab road all the way up, they can return to the stilted building.

Tang Sancheng, who had spent a lot of effort, wiped the sweat from his forehead, untied the square scarf that wrapped his right hand, one hand was intact, and the other hand was a little miserable, Bai Yi's face also changed, he looked at his left hand: "It's strange, it's really getting more and more itchy." “

"Look, I've already found out, why are you so slow?" Tang Sancheng complained and said, "Hurry up and let me rub your elixir, I'm itching so much that I can't stand it, I really want to scratch it hard." “

"You can't catch it, be careful of infection."

"I know, or I would have been arrested." Tang Sancheng was so itchy that his snot was about to flow out, and his voice was already deformed: "Let's go." The two of them almost trotted all the way back to the stilted building, and the Seven Evils were standing on the side of the road anxiously looking at the way up the mountain, and when they saw the figures of the two people, they rushed over quickly: "Sancheng, are you okay?" “
