We looked in the direction of the Lantern Festival's finger, and through the wind and snow, we found that in the somewhat gloomy sky, halfway up the mountainside in front of the path, there was a light flickering on and off. In this no-man's-land canyon, there are people living here?

We couldn't believe our eyes, maybe they were hallucinations in the snow and ice, but the dim light was there, looming in the wind and snow.

"Look! I'll just say take the path! Lantern Xiao was proud, "There must be someone with a lamp, let's go there and hide." ”

"Wait a minute!" Only then did Dorjee stop us, "How can anyone live here in this barren mountain range?" Maybe it's the legendary ghost fire that lures passers-by! ”

"Hell, uncle!" Lantern Xiao walked in the direction where he took care of himself, and said as he walked, "The ghost fire that also lured passers-by, you have seen too much about fasting!" ”

Although the sudden appearance of lights in this situation is indeed surprising, we cannot let this reason give up this chance to survive. I hurriedly followed the Lantern Festival in the direction of the lights. Kong Xue and Shi Tao hesitated for a moment, and then followed. In this way, Dorjee had no choice, sighed, and could only go with us.

As the saying goes, looking at the mountain runs a dead horse. This lantern can also be tiring to death, looking not very far away, we have walked for about two hours and have not arrived. Gu Wangmei quenched his thirst, but fortunately, with a beautiful vision of a warm house in our hearts, some of the fatigue was resolved. Just as the thought of giving up gradually rose in our hearts, we looked up and found that we were already under the light.

The warm-looking dim light was about a hundred meters above us, but there was a steep cliff in front of us. We stood below and looked up with a telescope, only to realize that this was not a private house, but a small Tibetan temple.

This Tibetan temple is built in the middle of the cliff alone, it should be very abrupt, but I don't know why, but in my opinion, it is very harmonious, the Tibetan temple hangs on the cliff wall and merges with heaven and earth. The protruding part of the cliff is the platform of this Tibetan temple, on which stands a flagpole. The rest of its rooms are supposed to have been carved out of the cliff, and they are not clear from this angle, except for two windows, through which the light shines.

Now this Tibetan temple is in front of us, but how to go up is the problem in front of us. We each put down our binoculars and began to look for a way up the mountain at the bottom of the cliff.

I inadvertently turned my head and saw that Kong Xue was still holding a telescope and continued to look at the Tibetan temple above, I was a little curious, so I stepped forward to ask her what was going on, but who knew that when I approached Kong Xue, I saw that Kong Xue's whole body was trembling uncontrollably.

I walked over quickly and patted Kong Xue on the shoulder, "How are you?" You okay? ”

Kong Xue put down the binoculars in her hand and handed it to me, and I realized that there were tears in her eyes, "Look at the top of the flagpole." ”

I took the binoculars and looked at the top of the flagpole, and I adjusted the focus for a moment, and then I saw that there was a string of red sandalwood bracelets hanging from the top of the flagpole. I turned my head and asked Kong Xue curiously, "Do you know that bracelet?" ”

Kong Xue looked at the direction of the Tibetan temple in a daze, and nodded, "That's my father's bracelet!" ”

"What!" I was amazed, Confucius was actually in this Tibetan temple? Hang a bracelet to tell us he's here?

I hurriedly beckoned Lantern Xiao and Shi Tao to come over and told them about the situation, Shi Tao hurriedly looked at it carefully with a telescope, nodded and said, "That's right, this is Confucius's bracelet, it seems that Confucius is really in this Tibetan temple, that's great!" Let's hurry up and find our way. ”

Lantern Xiao was also very happy when she heard it, "I'll go, I finally found Uncle Kong, this old man is too naughty." It's hard work to find him! I'm going to have to give him a good beating in a moment! ”

Finding Uncle Kong is also the biggest purpose of our trip, we are all very happy to see that the purpose is about to be realized, but there is only one person who is a little different, that is, Cai Rang Dorjee.

I noticed that from the moment he saw the bracelet hanging on the flagpole, he didn't look quite right, and there seemed to be a trace of sadness in his eyes, and he stopped talking to us.

What kind of medicine is sold in this kid's gourd, so I walked up to Cai Rang Dorjee and said, "Although you are employed by Kong Xue, but in such a situation, we are not just an employment relationship, I hope you have not hidden it from us." ”

Only then did Dorjee turn his head and stare at me for a while, "What do you mean by that?" ”

"Okay, I'll just get to the point. What do you see from this? I can see you're on your mind! I pointed to the hidden temple and said.

The other people heard the conversation and came over as well, "What's wrong?" Zhuo Ran? Lantern Xiao looked at me, then at Cai Rang Dorjee, and said to him, "What's the matter with Brother Rang?" Let's also share the tribulation, if you still hide your eyes, it won't be too righteous, right?! ”

Seeing that we were all looking at him, Dorjee sighed, "I didn't want to say it, because I was afraid that it would hit you, especially Miss Kong, and besides, if you enter the temple after a while, you will also know." ”

"Don't go around in circles, what the hell is going on? Say it! ”

Kong Xue also said: "You don't have to worry about me, you can say anything directly." ”

"Okay!" Only then did Dorjee nod, "Actually, the one in front of the temple is not a flagpole, we call it the Heaven of Death!" ”

"Afterlife?"

Only then did Dorjee continue: "Death means death. Kong Xue next to her understood what Dorjee meant, and couldn't help but stumble back two steps, and was hurriedly supported by Shi Tao. Legend has it that there is an entrance to hell in the depths of Qilian Mountain, and the souls of those who die in the mountains will be sucked into hell and cannot be born. Here, the things of the deceased before their lives will be hung in the heavens of the afterlife, so that the souls of the deceased will be closer to the heavens, so that the souls of the deceased will ascend to heaven as soon as possible. ”

When we heard this, we were all shocked, "You mean Uncle Kong has already ......" Lantern Xiao felt a little incredulous, "How is it possible?!" ”

Kong Xue was already crying beside her, and in an instant, the entire canyon was filled with a sad atmosphere. "You can really be sure that Kong Ye is dead! Don't talk nonsense! I stared at Dorjee and asked.

"I'm just talking about what the temple said when I went to Shengtian, and I don't know the actual situation!" Only then did Dorjee muttered helplessly, "I didn't want to say it, but you have to let me say it!" ”

"Your uncle!" Lantern Xiao scolded.

I waved my hand at Lantern Festival. Kong Xue next to her wiped her tears and said: "I believe that my father is still alive, he must be fine, there must be a clue from my father in the temple, maybe my father is waiting for me in the temple, let's hurry up and find a way to go up!" ”

A few of us searched along the cliff where the Tibetan temple is located, and soon we found that on the side of the small temple, there is a very inconspicuous stone step path, winding up along the cliff, extending in the direction of the Tibetan temple.

The stone steps were narrow, and we had to climb cautiously one by one. Although the snow made the stone steps a little slippery, the wind was much lighter here. With the increase in height, I inadvertently glanced down, the snow fluttering all around, and the snow under my feet melted into one, so that I had the illusion of floating in the air, this feeling was very wonderful, so I couldn't help but feel dizzy, my body shook and lost the center of gravity, seeing that I was about to fall, just at this moment, the Lantern Festival behind grabbed me, and said to me in a deep voice: "Are you okay!" Don't look down! This stone staircase is weird! ”
