"Didn't they come down from this stone staircase?"
Xiaoyu quickly realized that there were other ways to the ancient Miao village.
According to the books left by the Gu girls of the past generations in Fengwang Village, there should be only such a way in the ancient Miao Village.
I tried hard to recall all the information I had about the ancient Miao village. My uncle clearly said that there was only one way.
"It doesn't matter so much, let's just walk along here."
Xiaoyu's face showed sadness. According to the records in the village, this stone staircase has ninety-nine and eighty-one steps. Only by passing the stone platform can you reach the ancient Miao village. It is impossible for people outside the ancient Miao village to know about this stone staircase.
The secret of the stone staircase.
"Hey, I happen to know that the stone platforms on every ninth level may be a bit troublesome."
I explained the story that my uncle told us back then to Xiaoyu. Xiaoyu squinted his eyes and stared at the stone staircase for a long time. It shouldn't be a big problem.
"Let's rest for a while and then we'll set off."
Xiaoyu leaned on my shoulder. If it were just an ordinary ghost, there were many ways in her Gu skills to deal with it. The only thing I needed to worry about was whether she could keep me safe.
I recalled the method of cracking the soul-nurturing stone staircase in my uncle's story, and in my mind the Luoshu coincided with the Jiugongge.
I stared at the stone staircase, dividing each step into nine sections, and recalled in my mind the formula of the nine-square grid: wear nine shoes and one, three on the left and seven on the right, two and four are shoulders, six and eight are feet, and five is in the center."
Luoshu coincides with the Jiugong grid, so the fifth palace is the center, and the surroundings are distributed in left-handed order: Qian, Dui, Li, Zhen, Kun, Gen, Kan, and Dui eight palaces.
I simulated the Luoshu numbers in the Nine Palaces in my mind and tested the corresponding Nine Palaces numbers.
The numbers corresponding to the eight palaces of Qian, Dui, Li, Zhen, Kun, Gen, Kan and Dui were quickly analyzed. The first four quarters were 1,8,3,4, the next four quarters were 9,2,7,6, and the middle
It's the number 5.
The number of the nine palaces obtained, the first step is 1, which is completely consistent with what is said in the uncle's story.
I simulated the Nine Palace Numbers over and over again in my mind. The tenth step corresponds to the exchange position, which is the number 8.
I have to admit that this design is smart enough. It is difficult to safely reach the end without being familiar with Luo Shu and Jiugong at the same time.
I began to guess that it would be really scary if everyone in the ancient Miao village knew this knowledge. These are the most basic knowledge points of Feng Shui.
Later I realized that I had really overthought it. The ancient Miao village only asked everyone in the village to learn the safe path by rote. As for the ferocious beasts and remnant souls encountered every nine floors, they all had special medicinal powder on their bodies.
"The ferocious beasts we encounter every nine months on the stone platform need to rely entirely on our own abilities."
I told Xiaoyu the solution in my uncle's story. It would be best if I could scare it away with my own pressure.
Xiaoyu nodded slightly. With the ability of the Gu King Insect, ferocious beasts with a cultivation level of less than a hundred years are not worth mentioning. They don't dare to approach us at all.
We were about to get up when a black figure in the distance rushed toward us, and Xiao Yu made a playful face.
"Guo Guo, sister Xiaoyu, what do you mean?"
Chujiu rushed straight in front of us and kicked me on the tree trunk I was leaning on. Xiaoyu stared at the footprints on the tree trunk. Oops, Chujiu was really angry.
"Why did you run away secretly? Why didn't you tell me?"
Chujiu stared at me and Xiaoyu with red eyes. Do you know what you are doing? You are making a joke with your own life.
"What? Xiaoyu drank a little too much. I went out with her to sober up, and we just walked here."
I pulled the panting Chujiu to my side and asked him to lean against the tree trunk to rest for a while.
Xiaoyu reached out and touched Chujiu's head. She didn't expect that Chujiu could find her like this.
Chujiu snorted coldly and threw the package on his back to us. There was some dry food in it. He then picked up the kettle and drank two glasses of water. He almost died from exhaustion along the way.
In the package were leftover pancakes and sliced sausages from last night.
I happened to be a little hungry, so I took out the pancakes and handed them to Xiaoyu without any courtesy.
"Fortunately, I found it early, otherwise you would have died on this stone staircase by now. We just happened to fly together and cool off together."
Chujiu yelled at us, he went out for a walk and didn't come back for three hours, and he did such a thing.
"Treat me completely as an outsider."
The more Chujiu talked about it, the more excited he became. If there was something wrong with me, how could he explain it to Master Qin? I was deliberately making him unstable and wanted to make him go crazy.
"How can such a big thing be so serious? Besides, it's not like I didn't know you would come with me?"
Xiaoyu echoed from the side, Chujiu is so smart that he will definitely find the clues, and finding us will not be any problem at all.
"Chujiu, actually this is a countermeasure that your brother and I discussed. It's called tactics."
Xiaoyu picked up a piece of sausage and brought it to Chujiu's mouth. Chujiu snorted and turned away.
"Think about it, they found out that it was just me and your brother, but in fact you were hiding in secret."
Xiaoyu coaxed Chujiu earnestly, but then she became more and more angry. Chujiu failed to understand her thoughts and exposed her tactics so early.
"What? Now you're blaming me?"
Chujiu stared at Xiaoyu in disbelief, and the dimples appeared on Xiaoyu's face again. Now it's okay, we were controlled by them together, and we had no trump card at all. We were still counting on Chujiu.
"Really? Guoguo, is what Sister Xiaoyu said true?"
I suppressed a smile and glared at Chujiu reproachfully. In this case, we have to think of a new tactic.
"Little Chujiu, do you want to eat or not? My arms are tired."
Xiao Yu opened her eyes and shook the sausage in her hand.
Chujiu scratched her hair and opened her mouth in embarrassment. In the middle of the night, she found that Guoguo and Sister Xiaoyu were missing. She only wanted to catch up quickly, but she never thought that there were so many things to say and say.
"How about you go up the mountain first, and I will go up later and hide in the dark to protect you."
Xiaoyu just shook her head and said it was too late, and then Chujiu also turned his head and stared at the small dirt road in the distance.
There was a sound of hoofbeats accompanied by flying dust, and four big black horses drove over on the dirt road.
"Not bad, quite on time. You follow me and get on the horse. As for the other two, go back to where they came from."
The long-haired monster Hualou sitting on the horse pointed at Xiao Yu with a proud face.
"Spicy hot pot, long-haired dog, are you so sick that you want to take a bite when you see someone?"
Chujiu jumped up suddenly and pointed at Hualou. Don't think that he wouldn't dare to beat the dog just because someone was backing him.
"Little doll, since you want to die so much, I will make it happen for you now!"
The white-haired old man wearing a gray cloth robe on the horse next to Hualou showed his yellowed teeth and a coldness flashed in his eyes.
