We were just looking at the dead fish on the ground, but we didn’t know when Axiang disappeared. But she definitely didn’t make any sign of struggling for help, otherwise no one would have noticed. Everyone was worried, and they all felt that this time was really serious.
If you are too lucky, you may be taken away by those things that come to suck the blood of the dead after the sacrifice.
But then I looked at the series of footprints. The blood was fresh, and there was only one person's footprints. Judging from the shape of the blood footprints, it should be Axiang's. It was about a dozen steps, and it was not obvious when it reached the place where the mummies were piled up.
If she was captured by something, it wouldn't take too long. If we catch up now, we might still have a chance to rescue her. We didn't dare to delay for a moment, and hurriedly followed the direction of the footprints and crossed the piled mummies.
Bloody footprints appeared again. Looking in the direction, we circled behind the altar. We rushed there in three steps and two steps at a time. We bypassed the Jade Mountain and saw a hole between the crystal layers behind the mountain. We didn’t know where it led to.
The delicate figure flashed into the hole.
Although I only saw the silhouette of a person flashing for a moment, looking at her figure and clothes, it was most likely Axiang. There seemed to be nothing else around her. She was bleeding so much alone. What did she want to do when she came here? I felt suspicious, and her footsteps
He slowed down a little but quickened his pace, and hurriedly caught up with Axiang. Uncle Ming was also calling Axiang's name loudly.
The cave of this altar was initially separated by clouds and mist. The unusual movement of Thunder Mountain caused the stone smoke to completely dissipate. However, we were so busy running that we did not notice that there was an opening behind the altar. At this time, it slowly rose up on the crystal layer.
The light mist, the shimmering stone smoke, and the atmosphere of silence and confusion everywhere make everything around it seem unreal. The mountain gaps at the edge of the cave are even more profound and unpredictable. My intuition tells me
, this cave is not an ordinary place. There are fewer and fewer crystal veins in the cave, the fluorescence is dim, and there is a faint aura of danger. But I saw that I had already run in quickly, so I didn’t think about it anymore. After a moment of hesitation, I raised the
The wolf-eye flashlight followed her into the cave.
As soon as everyone entered the cave, they caught up with the figure they had seen before within a few steps, and it was Axiang. However, she seemed to be suffering from sleepwalking, her absent-minded eyes were staring straight ahead, and there was no sound in her nose.
Blood dripped continuously, but she was not aware of this, and did not respond to our arrival. She just walked step by step deeper into the cave.
I stretched out my hand to hold her, but Uncle Ming hurriedly stopped her: Don't disturb her, brother Hu, I think Axiang is suffering from soul-leaving syndrome. She must wake up from the soul-leaving syndrome. Once she touches her, her soul will not be able to return.
Come on, she didn't have this kind of symptoms before, she's afraid she's possessed by something evil
I didn't dare to act rashly for a while, but Axiang's nose kept dripping blood. Due to excessive blood loss, her face had no color at all. Regardless of her words, even bleeding can kill people. "Things with pungent smells such as nitrate and sulfur
It can restore consciousness to the hysterical person. After saying that, he took out the Beidi Xuanzhu, and just as he was about to take action, he found that Axiang had a sharp crystal stone fragment in her hand, and it was slowly stabbing her own eyes.
I hurriedly wiped the Beidi Xuanzhu on the tip of Axiang's nose. Axiang coughed violently, and immediately fell to the ground. I quickly helped her sit up, raised her head and pressed the upper ear bone to stop the bleeding.
Thanks to the timely discovery, but what happened to her? Why did she walk into this cave? Why did she want to blind her eyes? Could it be that there was something in the cave that made her mind lost?
He told me that Axiang must not be able to walk anymore, and it would be best to let her rest here for a while. I nodded in agreement and rested for half an hour first. It didn't matter if she couldn't walk. The fat man and I had to carry her back.
Xiang was lucky. I asked Fatty for a few pieces of turtle shells, crushed them with stones and fed them to her. This priceless tortoise shell is a miraculous elixir that can nourish blood and nourish the mind. Fatty couldn't help but feel a little distressed.
It’s not much in total, it’s all cheaper than Axiang, and now there’s only a palm-sized piece left. After thinking about it, this debt will naturally go to Uncle Ming, and let him write an IOU, and he will have to pay back the money when he gets back.
Wanting to refuse the bill, I went out and dragged in two dead strange fish. Their eyes were red with hunger and they were hungry and hungry. I thought about how many years the killing ritual had been abandoned. This thing might not have really sucked human blood like its ancestors.
Use a knife to scrape off the scales and roast them randomly to satisfy your hunger.
I looked around with a flashlight to check out the terrain. The cave was very narrow and not deep. When we chased Axiang, we were almost at the end. If we raised our wolf eyes, we could see the end of the cave in the beam.
There is a wall made of huge stones. There are three very short door openings under the wall. On the thick wall, there is a totem with a bloody eyeball carved on it, and the eyes are full of evil.
When everyone saw the bloody eye, they all looked at each other and were silent for a long time. Even in the Bible map that the Portuguese priest secretly drew from the Samsara Temple, there was no such place, and all the legends recorded that the underground altar in Erluohai City was.
There is only one passage, and what is behind this wall, and what are the bloody eyes hinting at?
The bleeding eye should correspond to the closed eye in front of the white tunnel. Various eyeball totems can be seen in many places in Eluohai City. As far as I can see, all the eyeballs on the stone doors on the walls
, all play the role of dividing areas or warnings, but it is easy to understand with closed eyes, but there are many possibilities for blood drops. The more likely one is to serve as a warning, indicating that behind the wall is a forbidden area, which is more important than the sacrifice branch.
A secret restricted area.
I went to the stone wall at the end of the cave and took a look. There was a fishy smell coming from the three low doorways below. I wiped it with my hand, and there was a sticky liquid. There were some chips like fish scales hanging on the stone.
Those things that went to suck blood after the sacrificial activities climbed in from behind the wall, so there may be water behind this wall. The texture on the stone wall is not coordinated. It seems that it was broken and then repaired.
Maybe it was not a wall but a stone gate. It was blocked for some reason.
After a while, Axiang regained some consciousness. Her face was frighteningly white and her body was very weak. It was difficult to speak. She asked her what happened just now: did she know what she was doing?
Ah Xiang shook his head first, and then said that when he was under the sky beam, he suddenly felt very scared. He only had one thought in his mind, which was to leave as soon as possible and never look at those mummies again, so he walked here by himself in a daze.
, even I don’t understand why I do this.
Uncle Ming said: My goddaughter’s nose will bleed when she sees something with strong negative energy. It happened again this time. She is too young after all. There are some things she doesn’t understand, but we are all in trouble.
Those who have walked through it many times will naturally know the stakes involved. It seems that it is not suitable to stay here for a long time. You heard me right. It is safest for us to go back the same way.
I thought about it. If I wanted to go back the way I came, I would most likely go back to the volcanic island in the middle of the lake. Although there are a few underground rivers there, they are basically in a desperate situation, and the underground rivers are flowing so fast that it is impossible to find the way with the injured.
, and although there may be danger behind this wall, there is also a certain chance of finding a path. In addition, Axiang walked here in a daze, indicating that there must be some secrets hidden underground, and leaving it alone is always a hidden danger. Since there is a cave behind the altar
There is such a place hidden inside, and it may be related to the ghost cave. The roots need to be removed, and if we don't have a complete solution, I'm afraid there will never be peace after I go back.
I looked at the compass on my watch. The stone wall was not aligned with the white tunnel running from east to west, but was located north-northwest. With this defense, I immediately made up my mind. However, I still had to seek the consent of the other members first.
He said, the way forward was blocked by a lot of falling crystals, and it was not easy to go back. There were two pull-fire detonators left, which could not be exploded. Another option was to climb to the cave.
On the top, use a detonator to break the roof, causing the lake water above to pour down. After filling the cave, you can swim back to the underground lake. However, many of us have been injured. If we soak in the water for a long time, our lives will be in danger.
.
At this time, Uncle Ming hesitated again, and strongly advocated going back from the underground lake. He was an overly superstitious person, and of course he refused to go to places with strong yin energy. He said to me: Have you made a mistake, Brother Hu?
Didn't Senior Brother say that we found the middle path when we encountered water this time? I think this is really correct, but we don't know whether there is water behind this wall, so how can we turn a deaf ear to the advice of an expert?
I secretly cursed the old Hong Kong farmer for holding him back again, but what can I do to him? If he wants to obey me, I will leave him alone. People who believe in God will definitely not agree to this. If I take Uncle Ming with me, even though he is now
My mental state has recovered a bit, but there is no guarantee when his paranoia will relapse. I thought to myself that people like Uncle Ming also have weaknesses, that is, they are overly superstitious. Why don't I take advantage of this and let him firmly believe that this is a rule?
Where is the way out?
Thinking of this, I told Uncle Ming that it is certainly true that we can find the middle way when we encounter water. We have never encountered a desperate situation along the way without looking for water to relieve our difficulties. However, the water in the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams of the Book of Changes does not necessarily refer to the lake.
The water flowing in it also alludes to the direction. In the Five Elements, north represents water. The number of water is one, and the number six is six. North is water.
But this obviously couldn't convince Uncle Ming, because he couldn't understand it at all. In fact, I didn't understand it either. However, when I study the secrets of Feng Shui, I can't do it without the Five Elements and Bagua, although I don't study it as intensively as Zhang Yingchuan.
Mechanical skills, but I still know some of the principles of the five elements, and of course there are some that I listened to Zhang Yingchuan when I met him that time, so I told Uncle Ming: the numbers of the Bagua and the five elements all come from Hetu,
What is Hetu? When Fuxi ruled the world, that is, when Fuxi was the leader, he was worried, worried every day. If you think about it, the veteran cadres at that time had no such thing as corruption. They all had a sense of responsibility and spent all day long.
Worried about the country and its people, one day he sat under an apple tree by the river and thought about national affairs.
The fat man was lighting a fire to grill the fish. When I said this, he couldn't help but interjected: "Old Hu, I know this too. Did an apple fall and hit him on the head? Gold stars popped out in front of his eyes."
Then I understood the Bagua Tai Chi diagram.
I said to the fat man, you don’t know if you can stop messing around. It was Newton who had an apple hit his head. Fuxi was melancholy under an apple tree by the river, thinking about the fate of his subjects. In that primitive era, there were many disasters.
, the people were living in dire straits, and humans at that time had very limited understanding of the natural universe. Fuxi prayed to the river, hoping to get some instructions on how to avoid disasters and live and work in peace and contentment.
At this time, a dragon-horse jumped out of the river, carrying a picture on its back, so Fuxi used its patterns to draw the Eight Diagrams. Some people said that the land that the dragon-horse was carrying was a huge turtle shell. Perhaps the dragon-horse itself was a turtle.
Old turtle, there is a naturally formed wonderful texture on the carapace, no matter what the legend is. In short, this is the river map. Fuxi drew the Bagua according to the shape of the map. This is the earliest understanding of the universe and the world by mankind. The way of heaven is all there.
Among them, according to records, the texture pattern of the negative picture of the dragon and horse has one white spot and six black spots on the back near the tail. Seven black spots and two white spots on the back near the head are different. There are a total of fifty-five black and white spots in the river picture.
There are twenty-five black dots, which are called the number of the sky, and thirty black ones, which are the number of the earth. The white ones represent yang. The five black dots are all odd numbers, and the even numbers six represent yin, which are called the number of the earth. At the same time, the river map also has
One, four, five, is regarded as the birth number, and eight is called the success number. There is a mutually reinforcing relationship between them. Each of the five directions has an odd and an even number. They are all matched with two symbolic numbers to represent the world.
All things are formed by the combination of yin and yang. It means that Taiji connects the heaven and the earth. If it is not born from the earth, it is born from the earth and created by the sky.
That’s why it is said that the north is the place where Yang Qi begins to arise. One tenth of the number of life is six, which is called water from the sky, and sixty percent from the earth. The laws of all things in nature are all here, so I say that if you go north, you will definitely encounter
Water has the middle way.
After hearing this, I couldn't help but admire: I didn't expect you knew so many messy things. I used to think that besides knowing Feng Shui, you could only count money.
When I heard that I was knowledgeable, I was naturally proud of myself. I was almost speechless, but I still humbly said that I actually know a lot of things. It’s just that you never give me a chance to say it now.
Everyone can rest assured. All theories in the world are based on objective existing facts, so I dare to say that the north must be a student, because there is another very important reason. There is a golden school captain
According to ancient rules, if you go to an ancient tomb to touch gold, you must first light a lamp in the southeast corner, because the southeast is the direction of misfortunes and events. Misfortunes are disasters, and things are work. When the lamp comes, disaster will occur, and the northwest corner is
There are three gates on the road of birth, northwest, northeast and north. Among the eight stations, only these three are auspicious gates. Even Si Qian said this. He said that most people who do things are in the east and west, and those who achieve success are often in the northwest. The same goes for mastering Yin and Yang Feng Shui.
In this person's eyes, things always happen in the south and success ends in the north. From a strategic perspective, the north, northwest, and northeast occupy an absolute strategic advantage. The north has water, which is a good shape and vitality.
These words convinced Uncle Ming that he was sure that he was heading north. If he wanted to get out alive, this was the only way to go. So everyone rested for a while, then got in through the short hole at the end, and left before
, I stared at the bloody eyeball on the stone wall again. Could this totem have anything to do with Axiang's dazzling behavior?
Uncle, I don’t have much confidence myself, but it’s impossible to take any other path. I hope this is a way to survive.
As soon as I walked out of the low doorway, my eyes suddenly opened up. A magnificent underground canyon appeared in front of me. The cliffs on both sides were as heavy as if they were cut to death. Nearby, I could use the dim light of the ore field to see the general outline, while in the distance there was
It was so dark that I couldn't see the end. I walked forward for dozens of meters and found that the canyon was crisscrossed with fossilized bones of huge creatures. The nearest one was a triangular skull, which was no more than a few circles smaller than a private house.
Near the edge of the canyon, countless bone fossils have grown into one body with the rocks. Only the long spines indicate that the rocks were once alive.
The fat man carried the drowsy Axiang on his back and said to us: Didn't you say that the people of the Demon Kingdom are willing to donate snakes? There are so many bones of big snakes here. I think we have to be more careful. Maybe there are still some alive.
He said that the skeletons in this underground grand canyon do not look like snakes, but more like those of Basilosaurus. They have been dead for millions of years at least. I also agree with you. You are right. Snakes
How come there are such big ribs? They are almost as big as the bones of a ship. All the bones are fossils. There are no modern bones, so there is nothing to worry about. But we don’t know what the Evil Luohai people did here.
, we still need to be careful about this.
We were about to go explore the road when Axiang suddenly said to me that there was something behind her that gave her a headache. We hurriedly turned back to take a look. When we looked at it, we couldn't help but let out an ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
Strange, no one expected that right where we came out, there was another giant black statue embedded in the mountain just like the Leshan Giant Buddha. The sporadic fluorescence on the mountain set off its tall and dark outline, like a ferocious shadow, rubbing.
The back of heaven and earth is facing us, and the most peculiar thing is to take a huge statue of a few tens of meters high and lean forward, with the face and two arms sunk into the mountain. The posture is like leaning down to peek into the mountain.
His craftsmanship is not as exquisite and complex as that of Buddha statues. It only has an outline without any decoration or texture.
Everyone has a question, is this the true image of Mahakala striking the Thunder Mountain? Where exactly is this place? We immediately discovered that there are faces on both sides of the giant image, and the body is the same from front to back. There is no difference between the front and back, and there are only two
It has arms but no feet. Where the giant statue connects to the ground, there is a doorway about ten feet high. There seems to be some space inside. There are several collapsed stone pillars in front of the door.
The fat man said that it was not easy to find a well-preserved building, so why not go in and explore and find some valuable things to take back, otherwise we would really lose money on this trip.
I also wanted to go in and have a look. I raised my head and just looked at the tall giant statue. I almost tripped over something under my feet. It turned out that there were many similar stone pillars in the canyon. One of them fell down under our feet and most of them were submerged.
He picked up the soil and looked at the stone pillars at his feet, and suddenly said that he knew where this place was, but he did not say it directly, but said to Axiang: Can you let me take a closer look at your eyes?
