Chapter 229 North by Northwest

We were just looking at the dead fish on the ground, but we didn't know when A Xiang disappeared, but she definitely didn't make any noise in struggling to ask for help, otherwise no one would have noticed it. Everyone was worried and felt that this time was really bad, and they were afraid that those things that sucked death blood after the sacrifice were captured.

But then I saw the footprints, the blood was fresh, and there was only one person's footprint. Judging from the shape of the blood footprints, it should be A Xiang'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 caught by something, it would not be too long. Now that she chased her, she might have a chance to save her. We didn't dare to delay for a moment. We hurriedly walked over the pile of mummies along the direction of the footprints. There were blood footprints below the pile of corpses. We looked around the altar and walked over in two steps. We walked around Yushan. We saw a cave entrance between the crystal layers behind the mountain. Somewhere was unknown, a delicate figure flashed into the cave.

Although I only saw the figure flashing, it was probably A Xiang, looking at her body, clothes and colors. There seemed to be nothing else around her. She was bleeding alone. What did she want to do when she came here? I felt suspicious and my steps were slowing down. Shirley Yang quickly stepped forward and hurried from behind to catch up with A Xiang. Uncle Ming was also calling A Xiang's name loudly.

At the beginning, the cave of the altar was separated by clouds and mist. The abnormal movement of the thunder mountain caused the stone smoke to completely dissipate. However, we were exhausted and did not notice that there was a hole behind the altar. At this time, there was a faint mist rising in the crystal layer. The stone smoke was hazy, and the atmosphere was filled with silence and confusion everywhere, making everything around it look unreal. The gaps at the edge of the cave were even more profound and unpredictable. My intuition told me that this cave was not an ordinary place to go. The crystal veins in the cave were gradually decreasing, and the fluorescent light was dim, and there was a faint sense of danger. But I saw that Shirley Yang had already run in quickly, so I no longer thought about it. After hesitation, I raised the "wolf eye" flashlight and followed her into the cave.

As soon as everyone entered the cave, they had caught up with the figure I saw before. It was A Xiang, but she seemed to be suffering from sleepwalking. Her eyes were staring straight ahead, and her nose was bleeding constantly, but she was unaware of this and had no reaction to our arrival. She just walked deep into the cave step by step.

I reached out to pull him to hold him back, and Uncle Ming hurriedly stopped him: "Don't disturb her, Brother Hu, A Xiang seems to have Soul Leaving Disease. Soul Leaving Disease must wake her up by herself. Once she touched her, her soul would not come back. She didn't have such symptoms before, so she was afraid she was infected?"

I didn't dare to move for a moment, but A Xiang's nose kept bleeding. Due to excessive blood loss, there was no trace of human expression on her face. No matter how she said, even bleeding could kill people. Shirley Yang said: "Things with irritating odors such as nitrosulfur can restore consciousness to the ill people." After that, he took out the "Northern Xuanzhu" and was about to take action, he found that A Xiang's hand had a sharp crystal stone fragment, which was slowly stabbing into her own eyes.

Shirley Yang hurriedly wiped the "Northern Xuanzhu" at A Xiang's nose. A Xiang coughed suddenly, her body softened, and she immediately fell to the ground. Shirley Yang and I quickly helped her sit down, raised her head, and pressed the ear bones on top to stop 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 something in the cave made her mind lose?

Shirley Yang told me that Ah Xiang must not be able to walk any further, it would be better for her to rest here for a while. I nodded and agreed, and I had to take half an hour off first. It doesn’t matter if I can’t leave. Even if I lifted my body, I had to carry her back. Ah Xiang was lucky. I asked the fat man for a few shells of the turtle that were faded and crushed them with a stone, and asked Shirley Yang to feed her. This priceless turtle shell is a magical pill that can replenish blood and nourish the spirit. The fat man will inevitably have it.

I felt a little distressed. There was not much in total, but A Xiang was all cheaper. Now there was only one piece the size of a palm left. After thinking about it, the account was naturally calculated on Uncle Ming's head and asked him to write an IOU. He had to pay back the money when he went back, so he didn't want to pay it back. Then he went out to drag two dead monster fish in. He was hungry and hungry when he was hungry. Thinking about how many years the killing ceremony had been wasted. This thing may not have really sucked human blood like its ancestors. He scraped off the scales with a knife and lit the fire and roasted it randomly, which was enough to satisfy his hunger.

I looked around with a flashlight and looked at the terrain. The cave was very narrow and not deep. When we chased A Xiang, we were almost at the end. When we raised the "Wolf Eyes" to see the end of the light beam. There was a wall made of huge stones. There were three very short door holes under the wall. On the thick stone wall, there was a totem with a blood-dropping eyeball carved, and there was a full of evil in our eyes.

When everyone saw the bloody eye, they looked at each other and couldn't say anything for a long time. Even the Portuguese priest secretly painted from the temple of Reincarnation, there was no such place. Moreover, all legendary records said that the underground altar of "Evil Luohai City" had only one passage, and where was behind this wall? What was the bloody eye hinting?

Shirley Yang said that this bleeding eye should correspond to the closed eyes in front of the white tunnel. Various eye totems can be seen in many places in Erohai City. According to my opinion, all eyeballs on the stone doors of the wall play a role of dividing areas or warnings. However, closing eyes are easy to understand, but there are many possibilities for bleeding. The more likely one is to play a warning role, indicating that behind the wall is a forbidden area, which is more important than the altar.

I went to the stone wall at the end of the cave and looked at it. There were smells of fishy smells from the three low door holes below. I wiped it with my hands, and there was a sticky liquid. There were some fish scale-like chips hanging on the stone. Those things that sucked blood after the sacrifice were climbing in from behind the wall. So there might be water behind the wall, and the texture on the stone wall was not harmonious. It seemed that it had been broken and then repaired, or at first it was not the wall but the stone door, which was blocked for some reason.

After a while, Ah Xiang recovered a little bit of consciousness, her face was scary, and her body was very weak, and she was a little difficult to speak. Shirley Yang asked her what was going on just now? Do you know what she was doing?

A Xiang first shook her head, and then said that when she was under the sky beam, she suddenly felt very scared. She had only one thought in her mind, that is, she wanted to leave as soon as possible and never look at the mummies anymore. She walked here in a daze, and even she didn't understand why she did this.

Uncle Ming said: "My goddaughter will have blood on his nose when he sees something with heavy yin energy. This time it's like this. After all, she is too young and she doesn't know some things. But we have been through many times in the wind and waves, so we naturally know the interests. It seems that it is not suitable to stay here for a long time. You can listen to me, and it is safest to go back the same way."

I thought about it. If I go back the same way, I will at most turn back to the volcanic island in the middle of the lake. Although there are several underground rivers there, it is basically a desperate situation. Moreover, the underground river flows rapidly, and it is impossible to find the way with the injured. Although there may be danger behind the wall, there is also a certain opportunity to find the path. In addition, A Xiang walked here in a daze, which shows that there must be some secret hidden underground. Leaving nothing is always a hidden danger. Since such a place is hidden in the cave behind the altar, it may be related to the ghost cave. Cutting the grass requires hoeing the roots. If there is no complete settlement, I am afraid that there will be no peace after returning.

I looked at the compass on my watch. The stone wall was not in line with the white tunnel from east to west. It was located in the northwest. With this defense, I immediately made up my mind, but I still had to seek the consent of the other members first.

Shirley Yang said that the way he came was blocked by many falling crystals, and it was not easy to go back. There were two left in the fire-pulling ****, which could not be exploded. Another option was to climb to the top of the cave, use the **** to break the top, so that the lake water above poured down, and after filling the cave, you could swim back to the underground lake. However, many of us had colored and soaked in the water for a long time, life was in danger.

Uncle Ming hesitated again at this time and strongly advocated returning from the underground lake. He was an over-supervised person, so of course he refused to go to a place with heavy yin energy and said to me: "Are you wrong? Brother Hu, your senior brother, have you ever told us that we got the middle way 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 ignore the advice of experts?"

I secretly scolded the old Hong Kong farmer for being dragged on again, but what can I do with him? If I want to obey him, I will leave him alone, but Shirley Yang, a person who believes in God, will definitely not agree to do this. If he brought Uncle Ming, although his mental state has recovered a little, it is hard to guarantee that his suspicion will be recurred. If we do it again, we will not be able to take it away. I thought to myself that people like Uncle Ming also have weaknesses, which is overly superstitious. Why don’t I use this to make him believe that this is a way out?

Thinking of this, I told Uncle Ming that it is certainly true that we can get the middle way when we encounter water. We have never encountered desperate situations and seek water to solve the problem. However, the water in the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams of the Book of Changes does not necessarily refer to the water flowing in the lake and the river. It also implies the direction. In the five elements, the north represents water. Water produces a number of one, and the north is water.

But this obviously couldn't convince Uncle Ming because he couldn't understand it at all. Actually, I didn't understand it either. However, when I studied the secret techniques of Feng Shui, I naturally could not live without the Yi techniques such as the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams. Although I would not study the numbers as carefully as Zhang Yingchuan, I still know some of the principles of the five elements of the generation and restraint. Of course, some of them were heard by Zhang Yingchuan that time, and then I talked to Uncle Ming: "The numbers of the Eight Trigrams and Five Elements come from the River Map. What is the River Map? When Fuxi was the king of the world, that is, when Fuxi was the leader, he was worried, and he was worried every day. Think about it, the old cadres at that time did not have such corruption. They all had a sense of responsibility. They were worried about the country and the people all day long. One day he sat under an apple tree by the river thinking about national affairs..."

The fat man was igniting the fire to grill fish. After hearing this, he couldn't help but interrupt and said, "Old Hu, I know this, did an apple fall down and hit him on the head, and the stars popped up in front of him, and he realized the Bagua Tai Chi diagram."

I told the fat man that you don’t know if you can stop getting involved? The one who made the apple smash his head was Newton. Fuxi was worried under an apple tree by the river, thinking about the fate of his subjects. In that primitive and prehistoric era, there were many disasters, and the people lived in dire straits. Moreover, 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 help the people avoid disasters and live and work in peace.

At this time, a dragon horse jumped out of the river, carrying a picture on its back, so Fuxi drew the Eight Trigrams with its pattern. Some people say that the dragon horse was carrying a huge turtle shell. Perhaps the dragon horse itself was an old turtle itself, and the shell had a wonderful texture naturally formed on it. No matter what the legend is, in short, this is the River Map. Fuxi drew the Eight Trigrams according to the shape in the picture. This is the earliest human understanding of the universe and the world. The way of heaven is all included. According to records, the texture pattern of the dragon horse bearing map has one white dot, six black dots near the tail, seven black dots, and two white dots near the head... Each has differences. There are a total of fifty-five black and white dots in the River Map.

,The white ones are twenty-five, called the number of days, and the black ones are thirty. As the number of earth, white represents yang, all of which are odd numbers, one, three, five, seven, nine, and black dots are even numbers, two, four, six, eight, ten, represent yin, and are called earth numbers. At the same time, in the river chart, one, two, three, four, five are regarded as birth numbers, six, seven, eight, nine, and ten are called numbers. There is a relationship of mutual generation and mutual generation. The five directions have one odd and one even, and they are all matched with two sets of symbolic numbers to indicate that all things in the world are composed of yin and yang, and have the meaning of Tai Chi to understand the heaven and earth. If it is not born and earth, it is the earth born and natural.

That's why it is said that the north is where the yang energy begins to be born. The number one and the number six is ​​born is called the heaven and the earth is born with water, and the earth is born with six. The laws of all things in nature are all here. So I said that if you walk north, you will definitely be able to meet water and get the middle way.

After hearing this, Shirley Yang couldn't help but exclaim: "I didn't expect you to know so many messy things. I used to think that you could only count money besides looking at Feng Shui."

I heard Shirley Yang say that I was knowledgeable, and I was naturally proud of myself. I almost didn't even have a door in my mouth, but I still said modestly that I actually know a lot, but you always don't give me the opportunity to say it. Now everyone can rest assured that all the theories in the world are based on objective facts. So I dare say that there must be a door to the north, because there is another very important reason. The lieutenant of the gold-touching school has an ancient rule. When entering the ancient tomb, he must first set up a lamp in the southeast corner, because the southeast is the direction of disaster and trouble.

Disaster is disaster, things are doing things and work. Once the lamp is turned off, the disaster will surely cause disaster. The northwest corner is the road of life, northwest, northeast and north, which is the opening, rest, and birth three gates. Only these three of the eight gates are auspicious gates. Even Siqian said that, "The people who do things are mostly in the southeast, and those who receive merits are often in the northwest." Also in the eyes of those who are proficient in Yin and Yang Feng Shui, all things in the world, including the political situation, have always been weak in the south, and the northwest, and have always been born in the south, and merits are restored in the north. From a strategic perspective, northwest, and northeast have an absolute strategic advantage. The northeast mainly has water, which is a good-looking trend.

After a few words, I convinced Uncle Ming's words. I decided to go north. If I wanted to go out alive, this road was feasible. So everyone took a break and went in from the short hole at the end. Before leaving, I stared at the bloody eyeball on the stone wall again. Will this totem have anything to do with A Xiang's dazzling behavior? I felt a little uneasy. In fact, those words in the north are used to perfunctory Uncle Ming. I have no confidence myself, but it is no longer feasible to take other roads. I hope this is a life path.

As soon as I came out of the low door hole, my eyes suddenly became clear. A magnificent underground canyon appeared in front of me. The cliffs on both sides were as heavy as death. You could also see the general outline of the ore nearby. The high place was dark and I couldn't forget it. I walked forward dozens of meters and found that the canyon was full of fossils of huge creatures. A triangular skull nearest was not smaller than a house. Near the edge of the canyon, countless fossils of bones grew into one with the rocks, only those long spines, and those stones were once alive.

The fat man said to us with a groggy A Xiang on his back: "Didn't the people in the Demon Kingdom willing to offer snakes? There are so many corpses of big snakes here. I think we have to be more careful, maybe there are still some living ones."

Shirley Yang said that the bones in this underground canyon are not like snakes, but like dragon king whales, and they have died at least tens of millions of years. I also agree with Shirley Yang. That's right, how can snakes have such big ribs? They are almost caught up with the skeletons of the ship. All the bones are fossils and do not have modern corpses, so there is no need to worry about anything. However, we don't know what the people of the Evil Luohai have done here, so we should be wary of this.

We were about to walk forward and explore the way, but A Xiang suddenly said to me that something was behind her, which made her feel very painful. We hurriedly turned around and looked at it. When we saw it, we couldn't help but say "ah" involuntarily. No one expected that where we came out, there was a black statue embedded in the mountain like the Leshan Buddha. The sporadic fluorescence on the mountain set off its tall and dark outline, like a hideous shadow, with its frost facing away from us, and the most peculiar thing was that the huge statue of the gods, tens of meters high, leaned forward, and their faces and arms were sinking into the inside of the mountain. The posture seemed to be leaning over and peeping into the mountain. Its craftsmanship was not as exquisite and complex as the Buddha statue, and it only had a contour without any decoration or texture.

Everyone had a question, is this the real image of "The Big Black Sky Hits Mountain"? What exactly is this? We immediately found that both sides of the colossus have faces, the body is the same as the front and back, there is no difference between the front and back, and there is only two arms, but there is no feet. The location where the colossus connects to the ground, there is a door hole about meter high, and there seems to be some space inside, and there are several collapsed stone sticks in front of the door.

The fat man said that it was difficult to have a well-preserved building, so it was better to go in and find some valuable things to go back. Otherwise, we would lose money this time.
