About four or five kilometers west of Laliang Town, there is a field called Mazhitian. About five hundred meters up the mountain from Mazhitian, among the pine forests, there is a large granite stone. The straight face of the rock is about four square meters wide.
There are many ancient characters engraved on it. The characters are as big as a small plate, the lines are spacing densely, and the fonts are magical. No one understands the content of the engraved text. Hence the name Chiziling.
On the Zhuzi Ridge, there are ancient trees, flowing waterfalls, clear mountain springs, rugged rocks, and colorful mountain flowers. In early spring, the foggy mountains are hidden, and the scenery is ever-changing. Whenever the sun rises and sets, the scenery is magnificent. Legend has it that who can
Whoever reads the inscriptions on the stone will get a lot of gold and silver treasures, which can be enjoyed throughout his life.
One year, a beggar with a sallow complexion and ragged clothes lived in Laliang Town. One day, he went up the mountain with difficulty to read. He read and read and read. Just when he was trying to figure out the last word of the text, suddenly,
Dark clouds appeared, thunder roared, and fiery snakes (lightning) danced wildly on him, as if the sky was about to collapse. Then it rained heavily. He was so panicked that he cried for his father and mother, wrapped his head and covered his ears, and fled down the mountain for his life.
So far, Chiziling is still a difficult mystery. According to folklore, it is the "Book of Heaven" carved by the Jade Emperor.
On the south slope of the top of Zuizi Ridge, there is a large piece of granite about four meters long, seventy centimeters wide and forty centimeters thick. It is suspended horizontally on top of two stalagmites. Hit it with a stone, and there will be a "dong-dong" sound in the garden.
It can be heard for miles. It is said that in ancient times, when bandits entered the village and robbed their homes, people would climb up the Zhuzi Ridge to hit the rocks to call the police. Therefore, the south slope of the Zhuzi Ridge is also called the Xiangshi Cave, and the ringing stones are still vivid in our minds.
Zhuozi Ridge is indeed magical. In addition to the "Book of Heaven" and the "Sounding Stone", there is also a very large cave at the foot of the ridge. In the cave, there are many stalagmites, strange rocks, underground rivers winding for several miles, and the cave is wide.
It can accommodate thousands of people.
It is said that in ancient times, bandits committed evil and often harassed the people. When General Ma Fubo learned about this situation during his southern expedition, he immediately led his troops to encircle and suppress it. More than a thousand bandits resisted in the big stone cave at the foot of the Chizi Ridge. Fubo
The general attacked for several days and nights. He cut down trees and firewood and set fire to the entrance of the cave to smoke it. After that, he ordered people to dig mountains, carry earth and transport rocks, and block the entrance of the cave. The entrance of the cave was blocked tightly, and the water was blocked. It looked like a hill.
All the bandits were trapped in the cave.
While the old farmer was telling Bai Shuo and others about the origin and legend of Zhuozi Ridge, he led them on the winding mountain road towards Zhuozi Ridge. As for their cars, they were all parked at the foot of Zhuozi Ridge. Early in the morning
After everyone found the old farmer, they drove along the road into the mountain. Only three or four kilometers after entering the mountain pass, they left the main road and continued along a rugged path. After about 1 kilometer, they reached Mazhidian and could no longer take another half step.
, had to abandon the car and walk.
After arriving at a pine forest, he looked around and saw that there was indeed a large granite stone. The inscriptions on it looked like Chinese characters and some symbols. At first glance, they seemed vaguely discernible, but upon closer inspection, they couldn't make any sense. Bai Shuo looked at these strange words.
There was an indescribable feeling in my heart. It seemed that I had been exposed to similar things before, but I couldn't remember when I had seen them. At the same time, I felt that there seemed to be something in these words.
Pull yourself and make yourself want to crack it.
Bai Shuo stopped in front of the granite and observed it for a long time, memorizing the shape and writing of almost every word. Finally, he simply sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes and meditated.
"It seems that this little brother is destined to this rock. It is said that anyone who is destined to have some connection with this rock." The old farmer said.
A full ten minutes passed before Bai Shuo turned around and asked: "Old man, do you think someone will have some kind of reaction with this stone? Has there been such a person before? What kind of reaction is it specifically?"
"Yes, there are quite a few. I have heard of several, but I don't know what they are. Anyway, I don't feel anything. I remember that there was a monk five years ago who felt a connection with these words.
, lived here for more than three months, meditating under the stone every day. But in the end, this monk gave up like all the others before, and no one has yet understood the meaning of the words..."
After hearing what the old farmer said, Bai Shuo felt a little regretful. It was not that no one understood the meaning of the words, but that so many people felt connected to these words. It seemed that the feelings he had just now were also extremely common reactions.
At this time, Cao An shouted: "Why can't I feel it? Why can't I feel it? I guess this stone must contain some trace elements or radiation. When you meet people with certain physiques, you can't feel it."
It will just produce some physiological conditioned reflexes..."
Hearing what Cao An said, Bai Shuo felt that this statement was not impossible. Many strange phenomena of induction between people and objects in the world were finally confirmed to have a certain relationship with material elements.
After resting for a while in the pine forest, the group continued to move forward. After about an hour, they climbed over a mountain pass again. Bai Shuo saw a peak in front of him that seemed much higher than the surrounding peaks, like one of these peaks.
Like a leader, he makes the surrounding mountains bow their heads.
"That's Hutouling. It's where I met the people from La'an last time," the old farmer said.
"Oh my god, how far do we have to go? It looks quite close." Cao An seemed a little tired, breathing heavily.
"It's still far away. We need to go around this mountain ridge and then go down through Madman's Valley before we can reach the foot of Hutou Ridge. If we go faster, we can reach the ridge before dark."
Seeing that Cao An was so fat that he couldn't hold on anymore, Bai Shuo suggested that everyone take a break and eat something by the way to finish lunch.
Cao An let go of the bundle, sat on a stone, straightened his legs, and beat them hard a few times. Then he found a wrapped chicken leg and started to chew on it.
Anna didn't feel hungry yet, so she just drank some water, then took out a very small cake and ate some.
Bai Shuo found a pile of food, came to Man Lin, and asked her what she wanted to eat. After Man Lin made her choice, Bai Shuo threw another piece of chicken leg and two pieces of cake to the old farmer. Finally he found a place
I sat down and opened a box of self-heating rice and ate it. This self-heating rice was developed in advance by Bai Shuo based on the memory of later generations. He asked a food company under him to develop it in advance. This time when he came to Bagui Province, he took it with him.
I got some, and this is when it comes in handy.
The old farmer was surprised and observed carefully for a long time. He couldn't figure out why the rice was automatically heated. Bai Shuo gave the old farmer two boxes of rice, but told the old farmer that this was based on chemical principles. As long as the rice is heated in the future,
Liangzhen and other places have further opened up, and everyone has gradually become richer. Not only self-heating rice, but also many things that they have never seen in their lives are gradually becoming available.
After resting, he continued to walk towards the valley under the leadership of the old farmer. Bai Shuo was very curious as to why the valley in front of him was called "Madman Valley". The old farmer said that he didn't know why, but he just heard his grandfather say it.
In the past, the valley had no name. Later, several people entered the valley and disappeared. After a few days, they returned to the town inexplicably, but they were unconscious. The strangest thing is that some of them were
After being crazy in the town for a few years, he disappeared again. Finally, someone found traces of him near the valley, still living crazy in the mountains. So everyone began to call that valley the Valley of the Crazy.
After listening to the old farmer's story, Cao An felt so scared that he walked slower and slower. Manlin was also frightened and clutched Bai Shuo's sleeves. Seeing this, the old farmer comforted him: "These are just legends. This valley now often
There are always people passing by. I have walked hundreds of times and there has never been any danger. Haha..."
When the old farmer said this, Cao An plucked up the courage to follow him quickly.
"Let me tell you, Mr. Cao, I usually see you as quite bold, but why are you so timid today?" Zhao Yong joked.
Cao An's anger was aroused and he shouted loudly: "As long as it is something that can be seen and touched, I have never been afraid of it, but these mysterious and mysterious things that are inexplicable and unexplainable make people powerless..."
"Afraid of him, Mr. Cao, don't worry as long as I, Niu Er, are here. If you encounter something, no matter if he is a madman or not, even if he is a madman, I, Niu Er, will bear it." Niu Er said.
"Okay, stop talking nonsense and hurry up. When we get to the place, I will cook something hot for everyone to eat for dinner. But if we can't make it to Hutou Ridge before dark, we will have to spend the night in Madman Valley tonight.
"Bai Shuo saw that everyone was slowing down a bit, so he encouraged everyone to come.
Two hours later, everyone finally approached the Madman Valley. From a distance, the vegetation in the valley was lush, and some trees with straight and slender trunks covered the entire valley. Light smoke and mist surrounded the trees, making the entire valley look like an environment.
Generally speaking, if it weren’t for what the old farmer said before, this place would really be considered a beautiful scenery.
The group walked into the valley carefully, Cao An looked around tremblingly, and unconsciously held the dagger he had prepared in advance in his hand, in a defensive posture.
"Mr. Cao, don't be so careful, right?" Niu Er said.
"You know what? You have to be careful to be bold. In such a complex environment, it doesn't matter if there are no enemies or poisonous snakes and beasts."
Zhao Yong laughed and said: "Mr. Cao, where are the venomous snakes at this time of year? They are all hibernating."
Cao An had a confused look on his face: "Go, go, go, I asked you to help, but you came to support me. The climate here is not only humid but also hot. Maybe they all woke up early and came out to stretch their shins..."
"Be careful..." "Who!?..."
While Cao An was talking, Anna and Zhao Yong noticed some movement behind the forest at the same time. In a forest ten meters away, the grass was shaking, and two birds parked on the trees took off in the sky...
