Now I can't sit still, they are in danger! I want to save them!
Seeing me anxious like an ant on a hot pot, my mother looked at me with a smile and said: I know you are anxious, but it is useless to be anxious like this. You have no idea where they are, even if they meet
Danger, how do you save it, where do you go to save it?
I slapped my head and couldn't help complaining, "Look at this Zhao Laoer, tell me what happens to you. At least you tell me where you are. Even if you don't tell me, you don't even have a postmark. This makes me
How to do it!"
My mother smiled and said: In my opinion, your second brother didn’t want to leave you this time, but he deliberately set up a trap. Who is he? You can definitely figure it out. As long as he leaves Luoyang, he will definitely
will be monitored, so he and his eldest brother set off first, and then mailed this letter to you. This is like a mantis stalking a cicada and an oriole behind it. He and your eldest brother are willing to be cicadas. The person who has been monitoring my Zhao family is
Mantis, and you have become the oriole in your second brother's plan, so instead of abandoning you, he has put you in a crucial position.
When I think about it, it really makes sense. This is to protect me firstly, and secondly, it can reverse the enemy's overt and covert disadvantages. But I wonder: Even if this is his arrangement, how can I go there alone and weak?
Becoming an oriole? What’s more, I don’t even know where they are now.
The mother continued to turn the prayer beads, which seemed to have become a habitual action for her, just like some people like to smoke when they meditate, and some people like to drink. After a while, she said: Since your second brother didn’t tell you where he is now
, but wants you to find him, then there is only one situation. Maybe he thinks that you can definitely find him where he is now. Now if you think about it carefully, how did he know the next stop and then go there?
I slapped my thigh and said, "I've said it a thousand times, it's still the same Buddhist painting! It's the one my dad worked so hard to courier to me!"
After saying that, I took out the Buddhist painting from my bag and gave it to my mother. To be honest, now I admire her wisdom. I have never thought that this quiet woman could hide so much energy. In my mind, my father
Only a hero, a woman like her mother, is worthy of her.
Only such a woman can wait for a husband who has not returned for decades without any regrets.
The mother held the photo and said, "Wait a moment."
I couldn't bear to wait, so I followed her to the study room and watched her flipping through the books in an orderly manner. About an hour passed. She said: I know that when you look at this Buddhist painting, you pay great attention to its eyes.
It is undeniable that this is a demon pupil that makes people unable to pull it out after just one glance.
It is because of these eyes that people ignore the Buddhist painting itself. No matter how weird it is or how weird its eyes are, in the final analysis, it is just Ksitigarbha.
If this picture of Ksitigarbha refers to one place, then there are several places. The first one is Jiuhua Mountain, which is the Dharma Ground of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva in Buddhism.
In addition, places related to Buddhist sculptures, our Grottoes in Luoyang and the Mogao Grottoes in Dunhuang are all very famous. In other words, they may be in one of these three places, and our Longmen Grottoes in Luoyang
, which is not the same technique as the carving in this photo, can be eliminated, so there are only two choices left.
After my mother finished speaking, something flashed in my head quickly. This thing was a name.
Grand Priest Wang Yuanlu!
This is the name that the immortal old god I met at the foot of the Yulin Mountain told me. This is a name that will be written down in history and will remain infamy for thousands of years.
I thought the Taoist priest was joking with me at the time, because Wang Yuanlu had already died. I even heard that many tourists would spit in front of his tomb to show their disdain.
The Taoist priest told me, Wang Yuanlu.
My mother told me that there are two places, one is Jiuhua Mountain and the other is Mogao Grottoes.
Why is Taoist Wang so prominent in history? Isn’t it because he sold off the treasures from the Mogao Grottoes?!
I slapped my thigh and said: I understand! Wang Yuanlu, Ksitigarbha Mogao Grottoes! Yes! That’s it, the eldest brother and the second brother must be in Dunhuang now!
I immediately grabbed my coat that was hanging on the chair, rushed out of the house like flying, and shouted to my mother: I can't wait any longer now, please pay attention to things at home first, don't worry about us.
I only heard my mother yelling behind me at the top of her lungs:
Everyone must come back alive!
One sentence already made me burst into tears.
I drove onto the national highway, racing faster than when I arrived. When I got to the store, I took out my phone.
It's useless for me to mix it in by myself, just like I want to dig up another tomb of Li Zhongzhi in Zhaojiatun, but I can't do it. And the only resources I can use are Zhang Kaixuan and Zhu Kaihua. Others, I really can't.
I can't think of anyone I can use or trust.
And if you think about it from the side, we and Zhang Kaixuan can be regarded as life-and-death friends. My eldest brother and my second brother did not ask them to come together, especially Zhang Kaixuan, except that they did not tell me the same consideration - they were afraid that Zhang Kaixuan would also be monitored.
In addition, another possibility is that they know me too well and know that I can't accomplish anything by myself. They also know that if I find him, he will definitely help me, so they left him to me.
.
Thinking of this, I dialed the number. I can put the ancient tomb of Zhaojiatun'er first. The place I want to go to most now is Dunhuang!
I made the first phone call to Zhang Kaixuan. I had to call him. I started thinking about why he could help me, but now I suddenly realized how 2b my thoughts were.
Why doesn't he help me? His grandfather is also missing! And in a family like his, there is a completely different difference between having an old man in charge and not having one at all. He has no reason to reject me.
After the connection was completed, I heard a noisy quarrel. He said, "Wait a minute." Then I heard his footsteps. After a while, he asked: Is something wrong?
"Yes, I don't have time to tell you in detail now. I already know where my eldest and second brothers have gone. Their situation is not good. We must find them immediately."
After hearing this, he said nothing.
I thought for a moment and thought, is this guy not ready to participate?
He didn't speak, and I didn't say anything either. We just stayed silent. Finally, he sighed first and said, "Originally, it was a family scandal that should not be publicized. Now I don't shy away from you. In fact, my grandfather is that person."
The first batch of soldiers came to the point of being pedantic and old-fashioned. With him around, although having an elder in the family is like having a treasure, because of his jealousy, not everyone in my family supported me in finding him.
What happened last time was very ugly. The commotion in Yulin Mountain was really loud. Several old guys from the Taoist Association took action. The incident of the emperor ascending the horse stone was really eye-catching. The family had just started talking about it.
This matter was so quarrelsome that my eldest uncle and my second uncle were originally opposed to retrieving my grandfather, but now they have even incited several other people in the family with alarmism, and the situation is very bad.
After a pause, I heard him take a deep breath and then said: That's it, let's do it again, not to mention that there is an old man in the family, just because of the old man who took me to play in the mud, I want to go, but this time
I may not be of much help. My eldest uncle, second uncle, and the others have gone too far. I have almost been placed under house arrest. The last time we invited Zhu Kaihua, we spent a lot of money besides getting him out of the situation.
As for the price, a desperado like him only values money, so I'm going to trouble you about money.
I felt relieved when I heard Zhang Kaixuan say that he would come, as long as he was willing to come. A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. No matter how bad his situation is, with him here, at least he has a background in the capital, and I feel confident.
, and it saves me a lot of trouble. Money is a trivial matter. I can be considered a young master no matter what. In ancient times, I was considered a dandy. Although I don’t have big money, the money to hire Zhu Kaihua should not be a problem for me.
I called Zhu Kaihua and explained my intention, and he immediately took a sip and said, "Damn it, I won't go. I was tricked by Mr. Zhang last time. How can you say that you are going down to the ground to find gold? You are simply talking about the gods."
Dou'er, I'm such a fool to risk my life by following you."
I was too lazy to bargain with him, so I said, "Just tell me the money, how much do you want?"
As soon as the other party heard the word "money", his tone immediately softened and he asked me tentatively: "You will give me as much as I say?"
I said: What you are talking about is p. Where can I steal 100 million for you? Come on, why are we people who have been through life and death together? Five fingers, do you want to do it?
His voice came from over there: I say Master Zhao San, this is really not about money. No matter how much money I have, I still have to live to spend it, right? As for the fight last time, if you hadn’t added the second child to understand
There are so many, why shouldn’t I have surrendered my little life earlier?
I interrupted him directly: Six! This is because of friendship. If you don't do it, I will wave the flag now. Can't you find someone with this number? Do you think you are the only master in the world?
Over there, he said firmly: Deal!
Zhu Kaihua was very neat here. He arrived in Luoyang the next day after a long trip. I took him to the west of the city to eat grilled fish. This guy insisted that I pay half of the deposit in advance. I have no idea about money. Every time, my eldest brother
The money transferred to me was beyond my consumption level. I didn't even pay attention to how much money was in the card. Seeing that he was so anxious, I said OK, I asked him for the card number and went to the bank to transfer it to him.
account.
Then I naturally talked about the purpose of going this time, the Mogao Grottoes. This place is also based on my speculation. I was not a very confident person before, but this time, I am very confident in my judgment. I don’t know
Is this a kind of intuition? After the last time we went to the ground together, Zhu Kaihua still knew me to a certain extent. In his words, I still have a little bit of courage, but my skills are far behind. I didn't follow either.
He argued and told him a series of processes that I had speculated, but he didn’t say anything about it. He just said: If it were him, he would never have thought of this, but if he really put things together, it would be very reasonable. Only this time
It’s different from last time. Last time, the Rainforest Mountain Tomb had the ancient jade as a map, so it was not difficult to find it. But this time it’s different. Mogao Grottoes is a key cultural heritage protection area, so it’s inconvenient to start. The most important thing is that the scope is too large.
It’s so big that there’s no way to start. You can’t just drive hundreds of excavators and dig around, right? That’s called archeology, not tomb robbing. Except for the experts, scholars and professors under the leadership of the party who dare to dig up ancestral graves so blatantly, who else
I don't have the guts either.
I am also concerned about this, but I can’t draw a conclusion without going to the place. The ancients were superstitious about Feng Shui. If something really important is involved, it must be determined according to the Feng Shui book. I almost flipped through the Feng Shui mystical book at home.
No matter what, the theoretical knowledge is quite solid. Coupled with Zhu Kaihua's experience, it is difficult to find the point, but it cannot be said to be impossible.
And even if it cannot be determined according to Feng Shui, it can also be determined by other methods. Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes looking, smelling and asking, and we in the field of medicine do the same. We look at the trend of mountains and rivers, smell the smell of soil, ask about folklore, feel the veins of the ground, and freeze the scene.
Bureau.
Generally speaking, Feng Shui is a treasure land. Feng Shui, as the name suggests, is a place where wind and water are stored. According to the Feng Shui mystical book at home, there are two ancestral dragon veins in China: the Kunlun vein, the Yangtze River vein, and the Yangtze River vein.
, although it stands to reason that "dragons belong to water and become kings when they enter water." Water dragons are stronger than earth dragons, but the Yangtze River has many interruptions and fast currents, which cannot form a "Ju" character in Feng Shui. Therefore, countries that generally occupy the dragon vein of the Yangtze River can only
Half of the country, like Sun Wu, or the Republic of China, which had its capital in Nanjing in modern times.
Therefore, the Kunlun line is the foundation of the entire nation. Kunlun is divided into Qinling and Taihang branches, and into countless smaller branches. No matter how many branches there are, there is no escape from a theorem, which is the land of Feng Shui. If you want to hide the wind, you must be near a high mountain.
.
Lingaoshan, what is this concept? Especially after the reform and opening up, Lingaoshan is a mountainous area, and mountainous areas are associated with poverty and ignorance. There are many unruly people and not many knowledgeable people. The more such a place is, the more folk anecdotes there are.
After visiting the site, many tomb robbers will go into small mountain villages to chat with the mountain people, especially the old people, and guess the owner and location of the tomb from the legends in their mouths. For example, building an ancient tomb cannot be completed overnight.
, and it is certainly impossible for the owner of the tomb to tell people that I am building a tomb here, and it will not satisfy people's curiosity without explaining it. In ancient times, not many people read, and they generally believed in ghosts and gods, so there were many stories about ghosts and monsters.
Most of the stories are spread in the mountains. In fact, they are the stories made up by the tomb owners to confuse outsiders. This can kill two birds with one stone. If the tomb is built in the mountain, and it is said that the mountain is haunted, who would dare to enter the mountain?
Therefore, this question is very important. Generally speaking, if it is said that there are monsters and ghosts on a certain mountain in a mountainous area, there is a high probability that there is an ancient tomb.
When we go to Dunhuang this time, if we can't find the location according to Feng Shui, we must find out which folk legend is related to our purpose. This process must be very cumbersome, but there is no solution.
We were sitting in my shop chatting and having a good time. In the meantime, I listened to Zhu Kaihua tell a lot of stories about his past tomb robberies, which were like some ghost novels. I must have listened with great interest before, but after the experience
After visiting the Rainforest Tomb, I found that no matter how thrilling you talk about it, it can no longer scare me. What can be more memorable than experiencing it personally?
When it got dark, Zhang Kaixuan finally arrived. Compared to the last time he went to the meeting alone, this time he looked much more embarrassed even though he was alone. He wrapped himself tightly and put on sunglasses before entering the store.
Without saying a word, he shouted to me first: Zhao Laosan! Do you have anything to eat? Give me some quickly, I'm going to fucking starve to death.
Before I could ask, Zhu Kaihua opened his mouth first and said, "What's the matter? The old Zhang family can't afford to take care of your food. Is it worth running all the way from the capital to Luoyang to have a meal?"
Over there, Zhang Kaixuan rolled his eyes at him, bent down, and said: Don't talk nonsense, wait until I'm full, I really don't have the energy to fight with you now.
Where can I cook? Don’t say I can’t do it. Even if I can, I’m too lazy to do it alone. Where can I go out to eat, and it costs only two small bucks? There is a kitchen in the back of the shop, and it’s clean.
Even the mice didn't visit. I opened the refrigerator and found some noodles and eggs inside, as well as a handful of dried vegetables that I couldn't name. I think they could be sold as antiques after a long time. I think Zhang Kaixuan is really hungry.
He didn't care whether it had gone bad or not, so he went to the kitchen and gave him a bowl of egg noodles.
Zhu Kaihua and I watched him gobble it up, and we felt quite satisfied. After all, I was the one who cooked it. It felt good for someone to eat it so deliciously. Especially, this person was the prince of the capital who made delicacies from the mountains and seas every day.
Over there, Zhu Kaihua looked at him eating noodles and asked me: Zhao Laosan, what do you make of this noodles?
I said: You don’t even understand egg noodles, it’s just eggs and noodles, what else can you put in them?
"But it looks delicious."
"So, what kind of cooking skills do I have, young master?"
"Is there any more?"
"There's just a bowl of noodles and eggs in the pot, what's the matter?"
"Fuck! Go get me another bowl! I'm hungry too!"
Zhang Kaixuan over there had his mouth stuffed so much that he couldn't speak properly, and he also yelled: I want another bowl!
