Chapter 16 The Cave Village

This forced Lao Ta to treat three and a half sentences as a gamble of poetry. The final result was that Lao Ta issued an invoice of 500,000 to Guyu, Guyu took out 50,000 to supplement the tax for Lao Ta, 50,000 to Xiao Man'er, and put a 200,000 yuan in his own pocket.

The three of them were happy, united and motivated.

With Guyu, a man with a congruent leads the way, the three of them can quickly walk along the mountain road.

The so-called mountain roads, the so-called mountain roads, are actually a combination of animal paths and human hiking.

In the deep mountains and forests, wild beasts all have their own fixed routes of travel, and over time, they will form animal paths.

Adventure enthusiasts who like to enter the mountains specifically choose such animal paths to rush on the road. The combination of the two means that the animal path becomes an immortal mountain road in the deep mountains and forests.

The path is tight, and the branches of shrubs on both sides are bullying and pressing over. The three of them should use their arms to separate the dense greens and drill forward like swimming.

I don’t know how long I have been walking, but I feel that the forest is getting darker and darker, but the vegetation above my head is getting denser and denser, covering up the sun.

If I hadn't been guiding the direction at all times, Gu Yu would have felt that he was spinning around the mountains and could not tell the difference between each scenery in this dim jungle.

Just when the three of them were silenced with their heads and their eyes were so shaken by the endless green that they didn't want to open their eyes, they felt a breeze rushing.

I was in the forest for a long time and didn't hear the wind for several hours. At this time, I suddenly felt the comfortable air flowing. Laota couldn't help but say excitedly:

"Let's go quickly, we're going to the edge of this forest. When we go out, we'll see a deep cliff river. There is a village called Cliff Village not far away. If you want to know how to walk the road ahead, you must get there first."

Guyu wondered:

"There are villages in the deep mountains and old forests?"

Lao Ta nodded and said:

"Some are just an abandoned village. Due to inconvenient transportation, the villagers inside moved outside the mountain more than 30 years ago. Now there is only one old hunter who protects the temple in the village. "

"Preserve the temple?"

"Well, the cliff village was originally built according to the temple. According to the oral teachings from generation to generation, the ancestors of their village were sent here to take care of the temple early in the morning, so later the entire village was relocated and one person would be selected to protect the temple, which has been continuously carried out for generations.

It's interesting to say that when ZF discovered these people, they were still wearing Ming Dynasty clothing, and they didn't know the changing world outside at all."

As the two of them were talking, they crawled out of the forest and their eyes suddenly became clear.

There is a large open space outside the forest, and you can see the wide ravines with cracks not far away. I think below is the deep cliff river at the mouth of Laota.

A wooden plank road was built above the wide river valley. At this time, a group of people were preparing to walk up the plank road, seeing that the equipment should be a more professional expedition team.

When Lao Ta saw this scene, he hurriedly ran forward quickly and shouted:

"What are you doing? You're so desperate! Come down quickly!"

This old tower usually speaks quite a lot, and this roar has caused a chest resonance of three times larger than others. Coupled with the hoarse friction of the vocal cords, it has extremely strong penetration.

The group of people was obviously startled by the night owl-like screams, and stopped and turned their heads to look at Gu Yu and the other two.

One of them came over quickly, with a harmless smile on his face, which was particularly easy to get close to. He asked while walking:

"Brother, we are from another place. I thought of going across the river valley. Can't the plank road be walked? We tried it just now, and it seemed quite solid."

As he spoke, the smiling middle-aged man had already smoked Guyu and Laota and took out a lighter to help the two of them light up.

When Guyu saw that this was a specially-packaged Huazi, one piece at a time, it was definitely a high-end product.

Lao Ta took a sip of cigarette hard, his expression was like taking drugs, and then said:

"The plank road has not been repaired and reinforced for at least 30 years. When my old man entered the mountain, he didn't dare to walk on the plank road. In fact, whether he could walk? You should see if there are any beasts on it. If there is, take a risk and take a walk. If not, hurry up and take a detour."

As they were talking and smoking, several people walked to the side of the plank road, and a group of people greeted Gu Yu and the others.

The middle-aged man who came to meet before took a telescope and saw the plank road dozens of meters from this end. There were no footprints on the wet moss wooden board, so he sighed:

"Brother, you have to call us, otherwise we may not have drowned. You said that the firewood man who met in the mountain just now was bad enough, so he told us to go over the plank road. Isn't this harmful?"

Lao Ta was a little puzzled when he heard this and said:

"It's impossible. Everyone in front of you knows that the plank road can't be left long ago. There are no grievances or grudges. Why do you do?"

Speaking of this, after a change of words, another sentence came:

"But there is a problem with what you said just now. You can't drown when you walk on this plank road. The water is not that deep, so you should have fallen to death."

The middle-aged man didn't mind, and he still smiled gently, saying:

"Then how do we go?"

Laota's windbreaker had already unzipped the zipper due to heat. At this time, he pinched the hem of the left clothes and fanned himself. The inside of the left clothes was embroidered with a big QR code.

The middle-aged man understood in a second, and quickly took out two packs of cigarettes in his bag and handed them to Guyu and Laota, and then asked:

"You can't be in vain, you can offer a price."

Laota stretched out a finger.

The other party did not make a counter-offer, so he scanned Laota's QR code and paid 10,000 yuan.

Lao Ta swallowed, and said why did the other party give him one more zero?

Of course, no one can say this.

So he said with a smile:

"Hey, you can follow us three. If we go faster, we will almost reach the opposite cliff village tonight. Some of the wooden buildings inside are quite well preserved, so you can camp there."

The middle-aged man said happily:

"That's great, we also want to go to Cliff Village."

As he said, he waved to the back:

"Brothers come here, let's follow this big brother."

Lao Ta Guyu and the other team were following behind him, with more than a dozen people behind him.

Gu Yu asked quietly:

"Old Ta, this group of people look at the equipment, like they are engaged in archaeology. Are there any historical sites nearby?"

Lao Ta smiled and said:

"I'm not bragging to you. Our Shu civilization has a long history and ancient monuments are everywhere, so it's not surprising to meet an archaeological team in the deep mountains.

However, these people are generous and give 10,000 yuan in a second when they cross the river. I guess they are either private expedition teams or treasure robbers. The national team will never be able to give money so much.

But don’t worry, don’t ask others what they are doing, go your own way, get to the place, set up camp separately, and go your separate ways and you’ll be done.”

Gu Yu nodded, but for some reason, he had a premonition in his heart that the place where this group of people was going might be the same as himself, and it was completely intuition.

After more than six hours of trekking, a group of people finally arrived at the abandoned cliff village for 30 years at the time of the moon.

This mountain village is worthy of its name because all the buildings in the village are located on the cliff.

That's right, it's inside the cliff, in a huge stone cave.

A group of people were amazed at the huge cave embedded on the cliff.

I saw that this huge cave was thirty meters high, with a width of at least eighty or ninety meters, and a depth of no bottom.

The entire cliff village is built in this huge cave.

Two rows of wooden buildings are built in the cave against the rock walls on both sides. Because it is dark, the light of the flashlight cannot see much farther, and I don’t know how deep it is.

The group of people did not dare to enter the crumbling wooden buildings to camp. They set up tents on the stone road between the buildings on both sides, picked up firewood and lit bonfires.

As the firelight came, the uneasiness in my heart disappeared without a trace.

It was a coincidence that as soon as the group of people entered the abandoned village where they lived, a drizzle fell outside.

Although it took a few minutes to rain, I was in the cave, looking at the raindrops reflected by the fire at the entrance of the cave, and I felt indescribable comfort.

A group of people couldn't help but sigh at the wisdom of the ancients and chose such a treasure land to build a village.

Instead of camping with the group of people, Gu Yu and the other two went straight to the depths of the village.

On the way, Lao Ta said:

"You are going to that place. Only the temple guardians here know the exact path. According to my old man, temple guardians have witchcraft and can teach people to see the path to the mountain."

Only then did Guyu realize that his 200,000-distance fee was worth it here.

Pass through the 200-meter-long cave village and arrive at the entrance of the cave on the other side.

I saw that there was a stone platform outside the cave here, with a small stone temple above, with a simple shape, wide at the bottom and narrow at the top, like a pyramid cut in half.

There are many reliefs on the exterior wall of the temple, but they are severely weathered and cannot be seen clearly in the night.

The three of them walked a few steps and came to the temple gate. Only then did they see that under the stone platform carrying the stone temple was a deep abyss, with thick fog inside, carrying the moldy smell of the jungle after the rain.

Guyu couldn't help but be shocked when he heard that the wall behind the stone temple was almost on the same plane as the cliff.

Bypassing a strange human-headed snake statue at the entrance of the temple, the old tower gently knocked on the wooden door and said:

"Is Uncle Jiang here? I'm Cha Nan, from Cha Sanshan's family."

The stones in this temple are a bit special, and they seem to be able to isolate most of the sound waves, including infrasonic waves, so I can't hear the situation in the temple clearly at the Guyu night.

But when Laota knocked on the door, with the vibration from the wooden door, Gu Yu heard that the small stone temple seemed very messy, and the outline of a human figure was lying on the ground, his body was twisted.

"Old Tower, stop knocking, I have a very unknown feeling~~~"
