Between the contemplation, the sound of Gu worms colliding with the Gu altar became more and more violent, the bigger the Gu altar collided, the louder the sound of the Gu altar colliding, it sounded like there were at least hundreds of Gu worms inside, and with the sound of collision, the lid of the Gu altar continued to rise and fall, it seemed that if Su Dingqin continued to move forward just now, these Gu worms would inevitably break out of the altar, and it was still unknown whether he would survive at that time.

But fortunately, after a minute or two, the sound of Gu worm impact gradually dissipated, it seemed that these Gu worms had calmed down, and after seeing the dead silence around him, Su Dingqin turned around and looked at the wooden bridge, raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead, and said in a deep voice: "What happened just now, why did these Gu worms chase here and stop chasing, could it be that there is something to restrain Gu worms here?" ”

As he spoke, Su Dingqin walked to the place where the Gu worm stopped just now, squatted down and carefully observed the ground for a moment, then took out a sharp dagger from his waist, and then began to dig on the ground, after digging about one or twenty centimeters, a blue-gray jar appeared under the ground, this altar was about the size of a palm, and it was sealed with a lid, and the altar body was stained with a lot of soil, and the altar wall had been slightly yellowed, and the color of the soil was immersed in it, and it seemed that this blue-gray altar had been buried here for at least several decades.

Seeing that after Su Dingqin dug out the Gu altar from the ground, several of us stepped forward, and at this time, Chen Xianglin, who was standing on the side, said: "It seems that the reason why the Gu worms stopped moving forward just now is this altar, could it be that the things in this jar can restrain these Gu worms?" ”

"Brother Ding Qin, otherwise, let's open this Gu altar and take a look, if the things inside can really restrain the Gu worms, maybe they can help us cross the eagle's beak stream." Shen Nanxiao looked at the Gu altar in Su Dingqin's hand and said.

Su Dingqin didn't respond when he heard this, but shook the Gu altar twice in the air, judging from the sound, there was indeed something inside, and with the shaking, there was a faint collision sound inside, it seemed that it was indeed a living thing, and it should also be a Gu worm.

Su Dingqin's color sank after hearing the sound of collision in the Gu altar, and he said coldly: "No, what is contained in this Gu altar should also be Gu worms, if it is opened and let this Gu worm fly out, there may be unexpected consequences, for the sake of safety, this Gu altar cannot be opened." ”

"Actually, it doesn't matter if this Gu altar can't be opened or not, as long as it can help us cross the eagle's beak stream, otherwise a few of us will take this Gu altar and go over to try it?" Ning Nanxi looked at Su Dingqin and asked.

Su Dingqin glanced in the direction of the wooden bridge, shook his head, and said that at present, I don't know the scope of this Gu worm's restraint, once all the people are dispatched, if the Gu worm attacks, we will inevitably suffer, rather than taking the risk, it is better to let him and Shen Nanxiao come forward to test it, and then make a decision if it is okay at that time.

Seeing that several of us agreed, Su Dingqin held the Gu altar and Shen Nanxiao and walked towards the direction of the wooden bridge, perhaps smelling the smell of the living, the Gu worms in the Gu altar became irritable again, and constantly rushed against the Gu altar, some Gu altars even made a clicking and cracking sound, Su Dingqin and Shen Nanxiao did not stop when they heard the sound, and continued to walk in the direction of the wooden bridge, as the two of them got closer and closer, the originally irritable Gu worms actually settled down a lot, Su Dingqin saw that it had an effect and hurriedly accelerated his pace with Shen Nanxiao, But just when the two of them were about to step onto the wooden bridge, dozens of black Gu worms suddenly flew out of the Gu altar not far in front of them, attacking Shen Nanxiao directly, seeing the Gu worms flying towards Shen Nanxiao, Su Dingqin immediately handed the Gu altar in his hand to Shen Nanxiao, it is strange to say, as soon as Shen Nanxiao took over the Gu altar, these Gu worms turned around and no longer attacked him, but aimed the spearhead at Su Dingqin.

After discovering the clue, Shen Nanxiao handed the Gu altar back to Su Dingqin again, and in the process of the two of them handing it back and forth, the two of them retreated to the place where the Gu altar was placed, and then put the Gu altar back on the ground, and then the chasing Gu worm turned around again and flew back in the direction of the wooden bridge.

Seeing that the Gu worm flew back to the Gu altar, Shen Nanxiao breathed a sigh of relief, sighed and shook his head: "No, whoever holds this Gu altar can not be bitten by the Gu worm, but what about the others, now there is only one Gu altar here, and other people need other ways to go over." ”

"Then how about we go over in turn, let one of them go over with the Gu altar first, and then throw the Gu altar back after passing over, won't you be able to let everyone pass back and forth a few times?" Li Hai looked at Shen Nanxiao and proposed.

"According to my visual observation, this wooden bridge is thirty or forty meters long, with the strength of a few of us, it is impossible to throw the Gu altar out of such a distance, and once one of them makes a mistake, this Gu altar will fall off the cliff, and then it will be troublesome to cross it, the people here can't pass, the people over there can't pass, this is definitely not a good way, it seems that we need to think of other ways to cross this wooden bridge smoothly." Su Dingqin looked at us with a solemn face and said.

"Miao Jiang's side is darker than Jiangning City, it is estimated that it will be dark in two hours, once it is dark, it will be even more difficult for us to cross the wooden bridge, now there is only this Gu altar in front of us, what else can we do?" Ning Nanxi looked at Su Dingqin and asked anxiously.

Su Dingqin had no choice in his heart at this time, and he could only choose to remain silent in the face of Ning Nanxi's questioning, just when everyone bowed their heads to think about the solution, I suddenly had a flash of inspiration in my mind, and suddenly remembered a way, before I and Li Hai and Ning Nanxi left from Chenjia Village, I encountered a melon field on the way, because it was already dark at the time, so we lived in the grass hut in the melon field for one night, in the middle of the night I heard a strange noise in the distance and went to check, and found several dwarf mules, these dwarf mules all had a hat on their heads, According to Ning Nanxi, this hat is woven by dragon worm vine, not only to prevent mosquitoes, but more importantly, to restrain Gu worms, as long as this dragon snake vine is brought on the body, Gu worms do not dare to approach easily, now we are in the 100,000 deep mountains of Miao Jiang, we will be able to find dragon worms, even if we can't find it, we can catch a few dwarf mules, when the time comes, as long as the hat on its head is taken off, we will be able to use the dragon worm to successfully cross the wooden bridge full of Gu worms.

Thinking of this, I raised my head and looked at everyone, and said in a deep voice: "I have a way, I don't know if I can do it." ”

"Don't sell it, what the hell is the solution?" Ning Nanxi asked anxiously.

"There is a vine called dragon snake vine, in addition to being able to prevent mosquitoes from approaching, it can also restrain Gu insects, this dragon snake vine will be woven into a hat and worn on the head after being picked by a dwarf mule, used to drive away mosquitoes, I think as long as we find this dragon snake vine, we should be able to restrain the Gu insects on the wooden bridge, and as long as we cross the bridge with the dragon snake vine, these Gu worms will not dare to attack us again." I looked at the crowd and said.

"That's right! Why didn't I remember, I told you about this dragon snake vine at the beginning, here is Miao Jiang dragon snake vine number must be a lot, as long as we find the dragon snake vine, then we can cross the wooden bridge smoothly! Ning Nanxi looked at me and said happily.

"Okay, in that case, then let's go our separate ways, it's three o'clock in the afternoon, five o'clock let's gather in the eagle's beak stream, during this period we are looking for dragon vines on this cliff mountain, but the mountain here is steep, you must pay attention to safety, and don't act alone, Brother Chen and Uncle Chen, you are a group, I and Nanxiao are a group, Miss Ning and Brother Chen and Brother Li are a group, no matter whether you find five o'clock or not, you must gather here, once it gets dark, this mountain road will not be easy to walk, so you must come back before dark!" Su Dingqin cut the railway.

After making a plan, our three groups of people began to act separately, we quickly divided into three roads after descending the mountain along the long road, and then everyone disappeared in the dense woods, although the trees in the forest are said, but there are few vines, Li Hai and I found a few vines to show Ning Nanxi, but Ning Nanxi said that it was not a dragon vine, and we had no choice but to continue to search.

Time passed in a hurry, and the sky was about to darken, but we were still looking for no avail, so we had no choice but to rush back to the eagle's beak stream, hoping that Su Dingqin and Chen Xiaohu would be able to find the dragon vine.

All the way up the mountain, when we arrived at the eagle's beak stream, it was already five o'clock, at this time the sky was already dark, and the sight became a little unclear, when we came to the wooden bridge and looked up, Su Dingqin and Chen Xiaohu and others had come back first, seeing this, I immediately stepped forward, looked at a few people and asked: "Have you found the dragon vine, I and Lao Li and Miss Ning have gone around the mountain, but I haven't found the dragon vine." ”

"We haven't found the dragon snake vine either, it stands to reason that this dragon snake vine is very widely distributed in Xiangxi, how can it be that it can't be found on the whole mountain, could it be that these dragon snake vines have been picked by dwarf mules?" Shen Nanxiao wondered.

"It's possible, when Brother Chen and I were looking for dragon vines in the mountains, we found some rhizomes of dragon vines, and there were still traces of fractures on them, which were probably taken away by dwarf mules in this mountain forest." Chen Xiaohu said in a deep voice.

"If that's the case, it seems that we can only make up our minds from the dwarf mules, these dwarf mules come out day and night, and usually appear after eleven o'clock in the middle of the night, otherwise, we will be here tonight to wait for the rabbit, as long as we can catch the dwarf mule, we will have a way to get the dragon vine!" Su Dingqin said.

The dwarf mules prefer to eat the crops in the fields, such as peanuts and sweet potatoes, but the cliff mountain is far from the village, there are no fields nearby, and we have no place to get these crops in the mountains, so we have no choice but to take out the dry food and bread prepared in advance to lure the dwarf mules, although I don't know if these things can lure them here, but this is our last resort.

Under the command of Su Dingqin, Shen Nanxiao and Chen Xiaohu and others used ropes to lay traps on the ground in front of the eagle's beak stream, and then placed the food in the center of the trap.

By the time all preparations were made, it was already about ten o'clock in the evening, and a few of us waited quietly in the dense forest next to us, waiting for the arrival of the dwarf mule.
